Heyyyy guys, Ringo and Figue here. We’ve got news!

Figue
Unfortunate news. I’m very sorry, but Ringo and I tried to hack into the server in order to try and obtain some answers or at least tamper with the code to prevent things like Astarion’s post from pulling unauthorized photographs of the guests, but…

It seems to have… backfired.

🍎
Yeah, so… Figue and I are kind of… stuck right now? Like. In the server. We have actual bodies so this shouldn’t even be possible, but you all know how “impossible” and “this hotel” go together.

Figue
It seems we’re unable to escape on our own without a specific word assigned to each of us being typed into the server. However, it’s considered to be “banned” and therefore we’re unable to tell you what those words actually are.

Additionally, the data itself is behaving abnormally. Please be careful.

🍎
Anyway, we’re counting on you guys! Thanks in advance! 🙏

ooc: So Figue and Ringo fucked around and found out! They snooped into the server and have now been sucked into said server. They’re stuck in there until someone types the “banned” word associated with each of them. Pls help.

Additionally, their hacking has temporarily ruined the server for everyone else a little. Per Squee, everyone will find that when they try to type into the server, they’ll end up spilling their true thoughts instead of whatever they were going to say. Their brain to fingers filter has been removed.

We can all play with this to whatever extent we want to! It’ll linger intermittently for a few days, and then taper off, and your character’s account can just be totally unaffected if you want them to be.

feel free to threadjack and use this post as a mingle for spilling-your-characters'-guts shaped shenanigans! Figue and Ringo will pop in here and there too. ♥

It's not exactly cramped. It's more like... a bit of a void, except for the data and Ringo and myself.

[astarion]

Well, that sounds terrible, either way. Nothing of interest in that "data", though, while you're stuck in there and we're out here, trying to suss out your magical words?

[refiguered]

Believe me, I wish I could say we'd found something, but no. Nothing interesting, nothing incriminating, just...

Well, I'm not sure exactly what this code is that we can't tamper with, but hopefully it won't cause problems.

[ No problems, just no brain-to-mouth filter, it's fine. ]

[astarion]

[Surely this won't be a problem for anyone further down the line.]

Hells, why not another problem to add to the list? Between that and floating sprigs that incite violence, what's one more?

[Yeah, actually, now he's a little wary.]

[refiguered]

[ SURELY. ]

At the very least, I hope this won't incite violence.

[astarion]

Now, I usually don't mind a whiff of violence now and again. Sometimes spilling blood's fun.

[What was that about a no-brain-to-typing filter? Well. It's Astarion, he might have typed that normally, anyway.]

I just don't like how the hotel went about it the last time. Though I can't imagine how we'll all be violent at each other over the server, unless it's for a through of verbal sparring.

[refiguered]

I can't say I know what would be enjoyable about spilling blood... I'm capable of it, of course, but I'd rather not.

But it's true that things shouldn't physically escalate.

[astarion]

It's all about the thrill, darling.

What sort of weapons do you use, by the way? Magic? I never asked.

[He asks, after she says she doesn't think things should turn violent. It's fine, he's just curious.]

[refiguered]

Guns, actually. Normally.

They're the tattoos on my arms when not in use.

[astarion]

Your tattoos turn into... guns?

[He has a vague idea what a gun is because he's been here long enough, okay. Maybe he's looked it up. Maybe someone told him. It doesn't matter!]

projectiles
loud
trigger
battle
bleeding out

No, that's two words.

hole

[hexensabbat]

[HOLE.]

[refiguered]

[ HOLE.... ]

I understand what you're attempting, but...

[astarion]

[YOU KNOW, A BULLET HOLE]

Hm, barking up the wrong tree?

[refiguered]

I can neither confirm nor deny. But none of them have worked.

[astarion]

I know it's not your fault, but this is far from easy without anything to work with. Having a dictionary read out to you is just as good of a strategy as anything.

[Go Giselle go.]

[refiguered]

I think so, too.

And I do feel tremendously guilty about it regardless...
