R2 TDM - boys in the band order boat memes

Hello and welcome to the...



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!

So that's what those drinks are called...

[ Hello, the long haired man in the old timey suit has come to drink with you. ]

Doesn't this ship have anything better? I could go for a glass of wine... Or absinthe, even.

[Constantine lets out a groan, rubbing his face.]

Oh, God, anything is better than this. But, no, no absinthe. The bloody bartender won't serve anything except margaritas.

[Despite his words, he still takes a sip from his glass.]

Listen, if I find a single bottle of wine on this blasted ship, I'm rationing that shit like it's goddamn war.

[ He pouts at that. ] Well, at least be generous with it! There are only so many of us that do drink, anyway...

[ Hmph! Luxury cruise, they said. Nothing but empty lies to him... ]

In the meantime, I may as well have whatever you're drinking.

If you ask nicely, maybe I'll consider it.

[He grins a little, swirling the drink in his hand. As soon as Salieri expresses his desire to drink, a small compartment opens in the wall and a perfect-looking margarita is pushed onto the bar surface. A tinny parrot can be heard squawking from a low-quality speaker.]

Instant service, at the cost of shitty alcohol.
puppetlooselystrung: (We get drunk or high to feel)

[ The hell is that noise? He can't help but stare at the strange music box as he accepts this weird drink. ]

Truly the devil's bargain... [ Siiiip. ] ... At least the taste isn't half-bad, I guess. [ He takes another sip, licking his lips a bit to get used to the taste of salt... ] Is this... What's in this drink, anyway?
