R3 Viewing Party!

[grimgrinningghosts]

[It’s another average, but boring morning in the mansion when suddenly voices start coming from Rod’s room again. Thankfully, the room is locked and it appears that he isn’t trapped inside his own body (luckily for everyone it appears that Oswald finished Rod’s new body so that most likely won’t happen again).

However, true to the Hatbox Ghost’s word, it seems like the new round has started and everyone in the Haunted Mansion has a front row seat to watching the torture unfold. This time you are no longer in the comfort of someone who has any idea of how to get them out.

… There sure are a lot of people you might recognize this time around, huh?]

[stenchus_rodentus]

Still with us, eh? Are you and Serling roommates now?

[stenchus_rodentus]

....



[Back-pedaling. Literally.]

That's the only thing you've said I liked.

[lusito]

[Humming in thought over here]

Normally I'd offer to try to help in regards to something like dream communication, but frankly, the only person I think I'd be able to contact by that method is Neku.

... And I really don't want to use that method to speak to him if I can help it.

[Then why did you even say anything Joshua--]

[lusito]

Two in fact, but I assume you are referring to the one named "Basil"?

[hallotween]

Well, he is, and I told him off. Now, will you get down on the ground like a normal person and stop actively working against us?

[stenchus_rodentus]

[Clasps hands. He's so proud of you, Marnie!]

How delightful!

...but you see, there's the matter of selling my soul. So. It's not doable.

[stenchus_rodentus]

[Fiddling with fingers.]

....perhaps.

[hallotween]

We'll just steal your soul back when we go and get everybody else. It's not a big deal.

[forgottenfounder]

Something like that, I've been giving him a few modifications.

[Smirks, yeah, he's a lil proud of himself.]

What about you, huh? Enjoying the air up there? Must be a little thin.

[stenchus_rodentus]

Here's my idea:

I take my soul. I conquer Tartarus and I rule ALL!!!

[Old habits die hard.]

[hallotween]

Okay, how about we don't do that, but you can come down here and sleep in a real bed and maybe we'll make some muffins or something. Fair?

[stenchus_rodentus]

Not enough, from looking at him.

[Smug ugly laugh.]

I have all the space I need. As opposed to the...[Guffaws] ashes you have.

[keyofimagination]

Just "Rod" is fine.

[keyofimagination]

[LOOK HE WANTED TO BE PERFECTLY IN CHARACTER.]

No. As I told the others, I specifically requested tapes of the previous rounds to know what it was like, and I all got was your round.

[keyofimagination]

I know! I... I know... but we really have no choice. We have no clue where to even begin looking for the Manor and even if we did, I am so powerless that we would get killed within the hour.

[stenchus_rodentus]

Very well.

"Just Rod."

[keyofimagination]

[Thanks Josh.]

[stenchus_rodentus]

Muffins.

[And not wine?]

That sounds hardly entertaining.

[forgottenfounder]

...You know, I can come up there.

[hallotween]

I'm thirteen, you jerk. You can hang out with Ghostave and be drunk and overly dramatic, okay? Just please come down here.

[stenchus_rodentus]

I can come to you.

[Don't make him run you over.]

[stenchus_rodentus]

Just what can you offer? None of you have escaped and now...[Almost said Basil.]...there's another game.

Hades let me escape Tartarus!

[amadeusrockette]

That seems odd. [???] Do you think it was privileged information, or whoever you requested the tapes from didn't know?

[hallotween]

You know him having your soul means you go back there when you die, right? No matter what happens. Forever and ever.

We're offering that not happening. And muffins.

[keyofimagination]

Oh if it's who I think it was, they knew. Why they withheld the information from me, however, I cannot fathom.

... Maybe because they hate me but I'm still not sure if they hated me before or after I decided to try to rescue my group.
