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.

You prefer something unexpected, then? Perhaps you're the type to play pranks on his friends.

[He returns a bland smile.]

Then I apologize for the rudeness.
sockswithsandals: (are you sure about this)

[A sharp frown.]

Pranks are funny. Barely. I create horror legends.

[Create? Despite himself, Yagyuu can't help but be a bit interested by that.]

How does one create legends, Yotsuya-san?
sockswithsandals: (pay attention to meeeee)

[Oh. Oh, it's his favorite question--! Even if you keep calling him -san how rude stop it.]

The same way you'd create any story, mostly. A plot, first; appropriate, though- no one cares about the horror legend of someone's bad exam grade, or something like that. Rumors help.

Then, you combine the requisite parts-- [This is complete with a strange gesture of squishing an invisible something between his hands, before he holds up fingers to count off these parts-] Cast, narration, audience. When those things combine, the truly terrifying horror legend is born!
