OPENING LOG.

Characters: Everyone!
Date: August 11th
Rating/Warnings: Nothing as of yet. Mark anything that qualifies a warning in your subject line!
Summary: Arrivals.
You want happiness. A company called RECOVERjoy has offered it to you, so you've signed up with them. Gaining happiness can't hurt, right?

Suddenly you're in a room, an apartment, with three other beds and unfamiliar faces. This is your assigned room, and it's quite crowded. You don't get much of a chance to think as your phone beeps--it's not your phone, maybe you've never had a phone, but there's one in your hand so you check it. It's a smart phone, nothing special about it, but now you've received a text from RECOVERjoy.

Welcome to Joywick! We're so happy to have you!

You've arrived in your assigned room, we hope you like it! Don't worry, you can move out once you've collected enough joypoints. Speaking of, if you'd like to check your balance, there's a special application that tracks it for you right on your phone! Handy, right?

... Did you check? If you did, you'll notice you have no joypoints. But don't despair! We're giving you a special mission. Make three (3) friends and get 200 joypoints! Gee, that's easy! Of course, we can't put a level on something like friendship, so just get to know people. Don't miss out on these easy points! We'll give you more information about joypoints once you're done.

Wishing you happiness,
RECOVERjoy : )


You're in this for 1 million joypoints, aren't you? Might as well get started.

(AFTER THE MISSION HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED OR ONCE 24 HOURS HAVE PASSED)

You receive another text from RECOVERjoy.

Great job on the mission! Or not so great job for those who didn't do it. : (

Well, you probably want more joypoints either way. Here's how! Look for another person. I bet they look fairly happy, right? Why are they happier than you? Because they've got the joypoints you need! The only way to get those joypoints is to steal theirs. How? Take their happiness away. It's easy! Maybe a rumor here, an injury there... but if you want the big points, be creative!
You want to be happy, don't you?

Wishing you happiness,
RECOVERjoy : )


... Not quite what you expected when you signed up. You can't leave, though, you still owe RECOVERjoy 500 joypoints and, well, you came here for a reason.

Yeah, yeah, maybe that was the idea! It's so bright you've just gotta look at it!

[He pauses, before crossing his arms and glaring up at the building.] And then they don't let us in. Boooo.

[His frown deepens a little as he tilts his head to the side at it.]

Usually that means they're hiding something, doesn't it?

[personal profile] gatto 2012-08-18 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
Usually. [He lowers his arms again, though his eyes remain on the building.]

We still don't know how they're gonna give us what they promised, y'know. Maybe they've got some kinda' big secret about it hidden in there.

...There's no guarantee they'll even give it to us. So there's gotta be some catch.

[He doesn't follow up with the fact that they all probably signed up even knowing this. Alto suspects for more than just him, there was no other option.]

[Rin glances over at him, smiling.]

Yeah, it's pretty naïve to expect them to just hand us everything we want. Don't you agree?

[His smile widens into a grin, sounding more and more enthusiastic as he speaks.]

...So it's real nice of them to promise to do it! Yeah?

[He looks at him a moment longer before making a soft 'heh' sound, smiling a bit sardonically.]

Whatever you say. We signed a contract, so one way or another we'll get what we came here for.
gatto: (oh baby i want you)

[personal profile] gatto 2012-08-22 07:03 am (UTC)(link)
Right, right! I dunno about you, but I'm not leaving here till I get what I came for.

[He can't help but smile a little, liking the conviction this guy has.]

Yeah, me either. And if they try to mess with us, they've got another thing coming to them.
gatto: (tonight i feel like neon gold)

[Rin finally turns around then, to face him head on (and get a good look at him).]

Yeah, yeah, that's right! They're gonna be sorry if they try to mess with us!

[He smiles up at him, hands on his hips.] I'm Rin. What's your name?
