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!

[.........(x) doubt]

Well, whatever you say, it is still more effective than giving me someone I actively despise. Really, now, they can have him.
whitehairedprettyboy: (hmm)

Indeed?

[ Valmont peers over Jasper's shoulder, trying to get a glimpse of what the unfortunate fellow in question might look like. Sue him, he's curious. ]

All right, I'll grant you it's an unorthodox choice in a hostage situation. If you're inclined to share, what on earth did this gentleman do to earn your ire?
guffawsungraciously: a disgusted kind of look. (stupid sexy hendrik.)

[hey it’s the guy in the matching armor!]

How long do you feel like listening, exactly? I have a whole litany of grievances, and we could be here for quite some time.
whitehairedprettyboy: (pretty hair)

[ He doesn't know what he expected, but sure, why not a guy who shops at the same armor store. At least he's got nice hair. ]

Mm, I do have a bit of room in my schedule between this laughable attempt at blackmail and the next inevitable murder. Regale me.

[ Hell, maybe he can hijack the grievance session into an opportunity to complain about his own various nemeses. It'll be cathartic for everyone. ]
guffawsungraciously: jasper frowning, facing forward but looking off to the side (sidelong glance......)

Hmph. Well, first off, he is a pigheaded idiot who does not bother thinking about anything for even a second. I would imagine it is due to a lack of oxygen due to having his head in the clouds all the time.

...

Quite literally, he is ludicrously tall.
