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. ♥

[Hot damn.]

Now that's what I'm talking about! You're the greatest, Giselle!

[ this message is preceded by like. 1/4 of the words in the "b" section of the dictionary. sorry to everyone in the server for the huge wall of text. she's diligent! ]

A pleasure to be of service.

It is a shame that I cannot hasten the process, but with luck, the answer will be found in due time.
Unless any of the guests have had luck already?

[hexensabbat]

[help i love her.]

No dice yet. I feel kind of bad. I definitely didn't mean to make this the world's most self-absorbed scavenger hunt.

[fixtures]

And why should you feel guilty for seeking freedom?

[hexensabbat]

No, it's not that. Just weird being the focus of this whole shebang. I kind of want to encourage everyone to just go about their business.

Eventually, someone will type the words. Probability is on our side.

[fixtures]

Oh, dear. Could it be that you are a bit more shy than you let on?

[hexensabbat]

Whaaaat? Maybe a little, sometimes.

[HEY.



RUDE, FINGERS.]

Oh. Yikes.

[fixtures]

[ 🚨🚨🚨 RINGO MOE REVEAL 🚨🚨🚨 ]

It is nothing to be ashamed over.
A shy woman can be quite darling.
Hehe...

[hexensabbat]

[WOW PLS.]

I'm not a shy woman! Jeeze! This is weird and embarrassing!

[fixtures]

Oh? Is that so?
Then I will have to take your word for it.

[ no, she's definitely convinced that ringo is a little shy now... how cute.... ]

How would you describe yourself, then?

[hexensabbat]

Hmmm...

Now that I'm on the spot, it's hard to put into words. I think I'm pretty much just a kickass devil summoner who's working freelance now after saving the world.

Not shy. At least, I didn't think so until just now.

[fixtures]

Devil summoner?

[ HELLO????? ]

My, that surprised me.

[hexensabbat]

Huh, really? It's pretty normal back home. At least, as far as the supernatural underbelly of the city goes.

[fixtures]

Talk of devils, witches, and demons is myth and legend, where I come from. While belief they exist does remain, they are not considered "normal" by any stretch of the imagination....

You have truly met with devils, then?

[hexensabbat]

Sure have! All sorts of them, too.

Some of them are probably not at all what you're thinking. Some of them are probably exactly what you're thinking, too.

[fixtures]

Pardon my asking, but might you be a witch then, Ringo?

[ is this what she meant by her being inhuman being a hard thing to explain.... ]

[hexensabbat]

Nah, but it's not a bad guess. They call us devil summoners back home. That's the job title for anyone who deals with demons and devils period, regardless of how they do it.

Maybe in previous time periods, we would've been called witches. It's a funny thought.

[fixtures]

I see. Then, you are in the business of making "deals" with these creatures. Or collaborating with them?

[ she did say deals with demons and devils.... this is her first assumption. ]

My, that sounds like a risky business.

[hexensabbat]

Mostly collaboration on my end, though some people in my line of work do make full on deals and contracts.

You're right that it's a risky business, though. It's got a pretty high mortality rate, if you're not careful. Demons can be pretty shady, as I'm sure you can imagine.

[fixtures]

Is that so?
I suppose a business relationship with a demon would not be perfectly transactional.

[ It's not that way with a witch, either, so why would devils and demons be any different? It's dangerous and you run the risk of getting short changed. She's sure it's at least similar, for Ringo. ]

And yet, you seem to have made it along this far.

[hexensabbat]

Yeah, yeah, exactly! You sounds like you've almost got firsthand experience, you know.

[She just sounds very knowledgeable...]

But you better bet I have. That's because I'm good at what I do! And I've got my team to have my back in case a demon does get the drop on me.

[fixtures]

My, you sound as though you may think of me as a witch or demon, myself.

[ no further comment 🙂 ]

Might your sister be a part of this "team?" If I may ask that.

[hexensabbat]

You could just be the sort of person who deals with either a lot, too. Doesn't have to be one or the other!

Anyway, yeah, she is. She acts as our navigator. She's support and help and everything all in one.

[fixtures]

[ because i just remembered this is the truth spilling post: ]

"Dealing" with a single witch, yes... demons, not so much.

In any case, I do get that sense from her: that she is of great assistance. She is quite good at explaining things, and has a calm personality. Yes, she would do very well training as a maid.
