CATFISH: KANESAN

[fullthottle]

CATFISH On Monday afternoon, Izuminokami's clamshell will ping! from wherever he has it. Should he pick it up to see what all the fuss is about, he will realize that his RULEBOOK app has updated to version 2.0. Opening the app will reveal that there has been an addendum to the rules... but one that seems meant exclusively for him. No other survivor will be able to see these additions. They read as such: 1. Each week, you will be given A TASK by your guides. 2. The specifics of this task will VARY FROM WEEK TO WEEK, and there's no guarantee that any two tasks will be the same. 3. You MUST COMPLETE THIS TASK BEFORE THE DAY OF THE TRIAL, regardless of what it entails. 4. You may PRIVATELY CONFIRM YOUR ROLE if asked, but you may not OFFER THE INFORMATION FREELY to others. A notification will arrive the moment he has finished reading through the update. Its contents are no less confusing. GOOD 🌞 MORNING, CATFISH! 🐟 💋 YOU'RE ON THE 🎣 HOOK TO SEA 🌊 🏖️ AND BE SEEN! 👀 👀 👀 BUT DON'T WORRY 😉😚 YOU WON'T BE A 🐠 FISH OUT OF WATER FOR 2️⃣ LONG 💦💧💧 TAKE A 🔥HOT🔥 PIC 📷 WITH YOUR BEST POUT 💋💋 BC WE'LL SEE U REEL 🎣 SOON ♥️👀♥️ Other things that are weird? The fact that the moment he opens a door and walk through it, he will find himself falling face first an entirely new location. Particularly, one that doesn't seem to fit into any part of the hotel, and absolutely not one that they meant to go through. As he regains his bearings and looks at his surroundings, he'll realize that the door he walked through is no longer there. It seems like he has only one choice, and that's to walk forward until he reaches his destination. It is there that he will find a familiar face...

WEEK ONE

[fullthottle]

[This week, Izuminokami will find himself suddenly entering a lavish office. One wall is entirely windowed, and to one end of the room is a large desk flanked by bookshelves. His shoes click on marble tile before he steps onto a rug covering much of the central area; the window is high enough that it only looks out onto the sky, unless he goes closer to peer out.]

TALK TO CHUUYA

[doublesmall]

[Chuuya's seated in one of three plush chairs in the office's central space, a glass of wine in hand as he gestures for the sword to join them.]

Hey, you made it. Sorry about the weird message, but looks like you've got a job to do here, too.

[he'll offer out a glass there. Let's drink, swordboy.]

[namelessfighter]

[ he'll take the glass, but he doesn't drink just yet. probably for the best. ]

And what is that job, exactly? The message wasn't very clear.

[doublesmall]

You're working with us, basically. If we have something we need done, you'll be our go-between to make it happen-- guess part of hosting is not being allowed to do everything ourselves.

[he sounds so annoyed about it...]

TALK TO NATHAN

[notaquaman]

[Nathan's in another chair, but like, sitting in it like an asshole with his legs over the side. He laughs like a lunatic.]

Can you believe this posh shit? I bet Shrimy McStabHappy wipes his ass on fucking gold leaf.

[Hi, nice to meet you...]

[namelessfighter]

[ what ]

That... sounds uncomfortable.

[notaquaman]

And I'm sure it is! Some people are just masochistic freaks!

[Shaking his damn head. He squints.]

What was your name again?

TASK

[fullthottle]

[After talking to Chuuya and Nathan, Izuminokami will receive the following notification on his clamshell:]

Successfully break into a locked room with the others you'll meet there.

[This should be completed no later than 11:59 PM EST on Friday. which it will because we're gonna run this before then so you should be good.

Please comment here when it's done for completion's sake/task reward!]

[namelessfighter]

In progress here!

[doublesmall]

[mobile account switching sucks don't judge me

When Kanesan wakes up the day after their break-in, he'll find 1 token added to his Finansex balance!

He will also find himself in possession of a hastily scribbled, handwritten note that just says "SOME FUCKER DOXXED ME." Depending on whose writing he's seen, he might or might not recognize it...?]

WEEK TWO

[fullthottle]

[Unlike last week, this week will find Kanesan in an unfortunately decrepit looking community center. The inside is bare-bones and a bit depressing, but there's plenty of room to roam around.]

TALK TO NATHAN

[notaquaman]

Welcome, one and all!

[Nathan points a finger around the room, not that there are more than two other people here to witness it.]

Remember the golden rule: if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all. This old bird is sensitive. She's seen a lot of shit in her day, literal and figurative.

[namelessfighter]

[ well he’s not judging, exactly? but kanesan is looking around curiously. he’s never seen a place like this? ]

So this is where you’re from?

[ it, uh. it suits nathan, in a weird way. ]

[notaquaman]

Yep! Not where I lived or nothin' mind you.

[He did he totally lived here he slept on the floor.]

But home is home.

TALK TO CHUUYA

[doublesmall]

[Well, it's Nathan's space, so he's apparently accepted the 'don't say anything if you can't say something nice' rule for now. Chuuya is floating, sitting in the air with his legs crossed, elbow on his knee and chin propped in his palm-- and making sure to hover high enough that his coat doesn't touch the ground.]

Good work last week, by the way. Any questions, anything you want to get out of the way first?

[namelessfighter]

[ chuuya is valid ]

Nothing about the task, but… If I wanted to ask about the curse that’s been going around, what would you be able to tell me?

[doublesmall]

Depends-- you mean the one that's pretty much made me institute a 'no fucking touching' rule?

TASK

[fullthottle]

[After talking to Chuuya and Nathan, Izuminokami will receive the following notification on his clamshell:]

Have a private conversation with at least five individuals you don't already know well.

[Comment here with your list of 5 no later than 11:59 PM EST on Friday for Kanesan's reward!]

[namelessfighter]

some of them aren't far yet but here we go:

1. shiraishi
2. grune
3. escha
4. zero
5. maou

WEEK THREE

[fullthottle]

TALK TO CHUUYA

[doublesmall]

[Welcome back to the swank-ass office, Kanesan. Chuuya's here as always, a glass in hand, and he looks contemplative? Maybe very slightly restless. Hm.]

Welcome back. Good work as usual-- we'll have something new for you this time, but before you get to that, anything you need to talk about?

[as a note you can totally set this ICly after receiving the task too, go for whatever,]

[namelessfighter]

Before I ask about the obvious...

[ because yea let's say he's received the task ]

My question from last week - about finding a way to protect someone from the curse. Can you answer it yet?

TALK TO NATHAN

[notaquaman]

[He's pretty quiet this week, smoking and leaving Chuuya to the talking, but he's still here in case Kanesan feels like approaching him for any reason.]

TASK

[fullthottle]

[After talking to Chuuya and Nathan, Izuminokami will receive the following notification on his clamshell:]

Exorcise the possessed: DIMITRI.

[Comment here once that has happened (before 11:59 PM EST), and we'll reply with his reward!]

[namelessfighter]

THE DEED IS DONE and now there is demon goo all over the ballroom, gross
