UNKNOWN SEAS R2
TEST DRIVE MEME
Glad to have you aboard! Gone are the musty old dark tones and anxieties of that creepy underwater facility from the first round - welcome to the lap of luxury on your very own Atlantic Cruise. And we mean your very own, too - there's nobody else aboard! Well, except for the Captain, who broke the news to you when you got up about what you have to do here.
The facilities are all top of the line, even if for some reason you just can't seem to get to the other floors of the ship just yet - there's a gym, a pool, a buffet- wait, scratch that, looks like you're on one of our liners lucky enough to have a tie-in deal with Jimmy Buffett himself, which means you get access to all you can eat at the on-board Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville's Jimmy Buffet!
So make the most of your time! Maybe even get a spooky souvenir from somewhere in the B̴͖̈́e̷̟̊̀ṛ̴̩̑̉m̴̺̪̈̈́u̵̧͛̇d̶̗̱̀̔a̸̧̙͗͝ ̶͖̖͑̚T̴̤͝r̷̩͘i̶̟͎͗̈́a̴͍͗̐n̵̥̆͝g̵̮̳͘l̷͔͑ḛ̸̹͒͗ while you're here.
1. Arise from the depths (of sleep)
Hey, you! You're finally awake! Welcome to your modest accommodations aboard... some kind of cruise ship? Look, there aren't exactly a lot of great accommodations offered aboard cruise ships, you get what you get. There's a bed, there's a little desk, there's a vase of flowers... and a beautiful view of the ocean outside your window!
Hope this isn't, like, wildly different and strange compared to where you just were! Oh, also the whole boat is all decked out for New Year's.
2. Room for all kinds of activities!
If you head out to the decks, or just walk around the ship, there's all kinds of things to see here while you wait for the bodies to start dropping! Feel free to make up whatever facilities you like, gyms or shuffleboard courts or even libraries - the Margaritaville buffet is canon, though. That's your canon food option. Hope you like shrimp!
3. Son of a son of a motive
Another Tuesday, another sealed envelope full of fun! Is this finally something worth killing for to get off this boat? Or is it just something stupid and/or embarrassing? Better ask around!
4. A good friend returns
On one of the decks, next to some regular beverage and food vending machines, is... an unmarked one? It only takes these weird coins that sometimes show up in your rooms at night. Sometimes it gives you things from back home! Sometimes it gives you? Little creepy wooden puppets??
5. Wasting away again in... well, a murder
Oh no! Someone is dead! Did you kill them? Are you trying to get the word out? Did you find the body and really need to calm down? Live your dreams, kill who you wanna kill offscreen!
6. Anything else!
There's all kinds of things you might be doing on a boat like this! Don't feel constrained by the options here - live your murderboat dreams!
Senshi | Delicious in Dungeon | Ota!
Age: Adult | Species: Dwarf | Occupation: Dungeon Crawler

Trivia: He has lived in a dungeon for over 10 years surviving off monsters.
Room for all kinds of activities!
[With all the harping pretty much everyone has heard from Senshi about food preparation, you'd think he'd be ecstatic to find out about the restaurant in here, but you wouldn't be further from the truth.
While he didn't have the most experience with sea travel, he could tell just by looking at his fried coconut shrimp was not well cooked at all. The crust was cloyingly sweet and had a mushy texture, while the shrimp itself tasted like it had been frozen and then defrosted. But that made no sense! If they were trapped on the ocean, surely seafood would be the easiest thing to catch and prepare! And if they needed to preserve fish for future use, salting it or smoking it would have been a much more reasonable option than using ice magic.
After only a couple bites of the shrimp, he places his fork down, and makes another order: this time ordering the catch of the day ("mysterious white fish"), and an assortment of vegetables, both noticeably raw.
He scans the dining area to confirm that there were certainly more tables here than there needs to be; it's not like they all eat meals at the same time anyway. He starts dismantling one of the tables until he creates usable logs out of them. He starts rubbing some sticks when he notices someone else in the room.
Instead of freaking out, he quickly hands them a steak knife and a potato.]
If ye start peeling the vegetables, we can eat this stew sooner.
[It's entirely possible that he knows this would be against the rules but he just doesn't care.]
Son of a son of a motive
[Well all good things have to come to an end, as the host announces a motive. This week it's the classic change one thing that happened in your past. Each one of them was given an envelope with a small message of the biggest thing they want changed from their past.
Senshi doesn't look at it, he doesn't need to, he simply pockets it and shakes his head.]
Ye got a lot of guts to try somethin' like this.
[His tone is even, but there is a hint of anger in his voice.]
Wasting away again in... well, a murder
[Bilbo Baggins is dead
This certainly wasn't the first body he's seen. Living in a dungeon for 10 years gets you used to it. Even if they weren't able to be resurrected for one reason or another, Senshi knew that death was a part of life, and saw no use in going into despair over this.
Still, a man was just murdered, and he knows that they have to work together to find out what happened.]
... So does anyone want to confess? I promise I won't get mad.
[He sounds like he's genuinely expecting an answer.]
restaurant
A campfire?
restaurant
...are you entirely certain this will not set the floor on fire.
[...like, he should at least make sure the ship doesn't burn, even if he's fine being complicit in everything else.]
