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.

[Mary gives a short yelp when she feels something grab her, any other noise choked by the fear of whatever ghost or creature might be behind her.

Her shoulders shrink into themselves just like the rest of her would like to do. She doesn't dare move, staring at the man behind her with horrified surprise.

Eventually she yanks away and defensively, childishly seethes at him. She stomps her foot because what the heck.]


That really scared me, you know!
sockswithsandals: (yes you like horror we know)

[FINALLY. The rest of her reaction is lost on Yotsuya, whose face breaks out into a grin the moment she makes a sound. Finally, someone screams. Where he was dead silent and too still before, he is now taking a hop-step back and throwing his arms out to the sides, beaming--although, it doesn't make him look much more pleasant, just. livelier.]

That's the point! You've done well!

[This is kind of intimidating. And freaky. What's this guy's deal?

She crosses her arms.]


What are you talking about? I didn't do anything.
sockswithsandals: (hair.......)

[All according to plan!]

You did, you did. [and now his eyes kind of pop out, he is so excited] It's good! That scream of yours.
plucks: (be friends with me)

[personal profile] plucks 2012-08-11 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[calm down sir.]

What's so good about it? If you think this is a good way to make friends, you're wrong!
sockswithsandals: (teehee gurl we frands u kno)

[This is calm--! He presses a hand over his jaw, to stop himself giggling about... screams... then waves her comment away dismissively.]

I'm not concerned about that. I just want to hear the screams.

Weirdo! [are you prepared to face the relentless judgement of a child....]

What is even the point of wanting screams? It's dumb!
sockswithsandals: (ass ass ass ass)

[personal profile] sockswithsandals 2012-08-13 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
[yes weirdo is the worst thing he's ever been called, he will not recover, how could she]

The scream is the big finish to every good horror story!

[How logical, right. ....oh she called it dumb...] It's not dumb.
