NO EXITS

[Erik L, Peter M + Talia W]

Would the three of you like to have dinner with me this evening?

Everyone make it through the night okay?

Anyone need help? Please try to check in here if you're able to.

We're almost at reset, just one more day of this.

Alright when the fuck are we now??

Uh, hey there, new denizens of this weird fucking campus. There is leftover pizza in the kitchen last night. Unfortunately, probably not for everyone because I apparently underestimated the amount of mouths there would be to feed this morning.

But there's also ingredients and cookbooks I brought in too so if anyone's feeling ambitious, plenty of food to go around. Hopefully.

BTW, yes, this place IS haunted.

Alright, gang of displaced people from different worlds. Tomorrow is the last day in NYC, and I can't let that go without actually making sure everyone samples some classic NYC style pizza. I'm grabbing a shit load of boxes from all over the city (don't worry, I'm paying them, not just stealing) and bringing them back so anyone want to spend their last night having a giant pizza party, you're more than welcome to.

I can also take orders for hot dogs or whatever else.

Hey. You doing okay?

Now this is more like it! I hope. Oh I just jinxed this all, didn't I? I feel like I just jinxed it.

Anyways, I guess first thing's first. Hi, I'm Ben. I got here last week, but totally felt I missed whatever window there was for an intro because, well, y'know, the ghosts and all.

I have a few errands I need to do, but in the spirit of collaboration, where my techies and mechanics at? I drew up some schematics of what we had for cryo-pods back home and this seems like a good place to do some scavenging for supplies. Luckily, at least for what I was looking at, the harder to find stuff won't be a worry thanks to Elsa being so cool, but I was thinking some more permanent structures as well as some monitoring devices could be a good addition, as then they could also double as stasis pods to maybe keep any badly hurt people stable until we can get the healers in to help. Obviously that's just one project and I'm sure there's other back up supplies that everyone could use.

There’s a ghost impersonating Venom. You remember him, right? Creepy alien symbiote. Just watch out, he will try and eat you.

Hey, want to team up and contain ghost Venom?

Where do we bring the fallen?

[PRIVATE TO MARGO (PGH)]

It was Rey. The way she spoke of you to me, I assume you would want to know first.

She should be back to rights and herself come next Reset. If patterns hold.

Alright so, I tested out the theory that perhaps ghosts can be outrun unless you have a super-speedy ghost. No super-speedy ghost as far as I know, but outrunning them? No go. Especially not with the ones that could alter your whole reality.

Sooo anyone good with setting together bones and putting on a cast?

Well, someone fucked up. At least it looks like you already know the place is lousy with ghosts, even if the note didn't mention it. Being the one to break that news doesn't usually go well.

hi yes hello

i've been walking around this island for hours now and haven't seen a school, can someone please find me?

They had an execution today. Broh, they do some pretty gnarly shit to pirates here in Port Royal. I haven't cheered that loud since — well, since I was an idealistic young guy.

But hey! Port Royal. You gotta say it like Pulp Fiction. Port Royale with Cheese.

Fuuuuuuuck, I am super drunk.

Hello? Everyone?

The ship is moving.

You might want to hurry back? It's, uh, well, sailing itself again.

Judging by the stars, we're a few hundred years ago on Earth. Still doesn't tell me shit about where we are, but it's too hot to be north or south poles. Portal gun's still working, but since I can't set coordinates, I'm testing blind. Open ocean everywhere I've gone so far.

GET ME OFF THIS FUCKING PIRATE SHIP. I HATE PIRATES WITH A PASSION.

Remember when I said the nightmares were over? Apparently, they were not. I just got a bit of a reprieve for two days.

I guess even if I didn't know who the fuck I really was, the break from those nightmares was nice last week.

Good news, everyone... NO NIGHTMARES TONIGHT!

Bad news... that building is still watching me.

Also you ever been tased by an alien and vaporized? That shit fucking hurts.

Well, that was awkward. Big yikes levels of awkward. Everyone back to rights now? All good? No, no need to answer. I can see you're all fine.

Great!

Anyway!

I only want to ask if everyone would be so kind as to leave the alligator they may (or, hopefully, will not) see around Derleth alone. Thank you...!

Traded in my rollerskates for a skateboard today! Does anyone want to sidewalk surf?

I am currently stranded on the sidewalk, in front of my house, which is locked up tight.

Due to a family obligation, I was supposed to miss the first week of school. these idiots I do believe my parents and extended family members saw fit to leave without me in their haste to run off to fat city. Which is totally bogus, man.

I'm going let them burn rubber and I'll break into my house.

Positives : no family gathering, my little project doesn't melt down and take this whole neighborhood with it.
Negatives : can't think of any.

QUIT LOOKING AT ME YOU GODDAMN ASSHOLES. I KNOW YOU'RE ALL JUDGING ME. I really thought I HAD the damn thing, so I poked it with my finger, and now I'M GOING TO BLIND YOU ALL so that you can stop looking at me.

Alright, day two, I'm not touching that thing again since yesterday because I couldn't fucking sleep because.

a. I swear it's like the entire fucking world is staring at me.
b. That massive fuck-off sound last night
c. Nightmares.

If any of that is useful information for the science folks here, then cool. I'm gonna go read and watch everything in existence in this place now.

I am certain a betting pool would be entirely inappropriate, especially if it's concerning how many of you would willfully ignore common sense and go mess with the big, foreboding thingie. I am also certain that currency options are limited for betting at all.

Anyway, bets on how many are going to mess with it? Winner takes all the imaginary marbles.

My dearest friend,

Welcome to Derleth.

I am so sorry I could not be there to greet you myself, but I trust you'll find your way around soon enough. Most of the students have not yet arrived for the new semester and so I've arranged for [your?] lodging on campus. You'll find a key in your pocket. Just like old times, eh?

Should the experiment go as planned, for one week we will be able to displace time and space itself. I believe with my calculations we will be able to control the effects and no one shall be the wiser. To anyone not directly involved it will be imperceptible.

Feel free to wander the campus in the meantime. We'll begin the experiment at [muffled] Hall, on Thursday, precisely at midnight.

We'll show them, won't we?

Un Sacrificium Parvis ob Adagnitio.
