Welcome To The Village
Who: Everyone who was signed-up for the excursion
What: The Village December Excursion
When: Dec 1st - Dec 23rd
Where: The Village
Warnings: Involuntary capture and confinement including immobilization and restraints, violence, injury, maiming, possibility of death, torture, coercion, gaslighting, mind control, drugging, scientific experiments, and extremely inaccurate depictions of mental health facilities/hospitals, among other potentially triggering themes. Please mark all threads appropriately.
"Good morning, good morning, good morning!" A voice that sounds very similar to Friday's chirps over a loudspeaker outside your character's home. Yes, their home.
Overnight, all the passengers who signed up for this excursion have been transported to their very own personal cottages. They will awake in a bed that is familiar to them. While this home of theirs does not necessarily have to resemble the place they were born or raised, it will be a perfect replica of a place they truly thought of as their home, down to the most minute details.
The cottages are self-contained, the size of a large studio apartment so, in some cases, they may only resemble the bedroom and living room of a person's home with a shrunken-down kitchenette and bathroom adjoined. But the heirlooms of their past are here. A favorite doll? A treasured family portrait? Trinkets you have long forgotten about? All of them will be here, somehow. (All except for weapons, that is.) They are indistinguishable from the real item, down to the molecule.
After that wake-up call, the voice continues on to express that the weather will be warm and sunny, with no rain forecasted. A brass band concert is announced, to start at noon on the lawn next to the living chess set. And once that bit of news is wrapped up, lively marching band music will begin to play. And it will continue to play. All day. From every speaker...including the ones hidden in their home.
Welcome to Your Village
It only gets stranger from here. Characters may be dismayed to find that they are without any of their original clothes or belongings. They awake in conservative button-up pajamas. The closet in their home is full of the latest Village Fashion to choose from. Everything is The Village label brand, including the tin cans of food that stock the kitchen and any of the groceries you could get at the General Store.
Your ship phone rings. When you answer it, you will be greeted, once again, by the voice of Friday. "Your number, please? Of course, you have a number. Look at your badge." If they look down at their chest, they will discover a small round number badge has been pinned to their pajamas. Was that there before? It bears the symbol of a Penny-farthing Bicycle, with a number in the spokes. This is their number.
"No names here," the voice of Friday chides, "Only numbers. Number 2 would like a word with you at the Green Dome. He requests you come for breakfast. Thank you!" Before they can protest further, the line goes dead.
Some Notes:
No matter how many times your character tries to take off and disregard their number badge, they will always find it re-attached to their clothes again the moment they look away and look back.
Your characters still have their phones but now they can only make calls instead of sending texts. They also do not take or store photographs anymore.
If your character destroys or damages anything in their home, or in The Village it will instantly repair the way things used to on the Serena Eterna.
The noise from the speakers can be muffled by covering it with pillows or other creative items, but cannot be stopped entirely. (Sorry Phil)

Some Notes:
no subject
"If there's no Number 1. If you're not trying to get information from him anymore... maybe, maybe it is different."
no subject
"It is different. You'll see. In time. Now, I think it's best if you go wait at home. You can wait in his home if you would rather. You can rest assured that he is in good hands here with us."
no subject
"I'd... I'd support him in whatever he wishes," Ava nods, hoping that her husband can pick up on the true meaning.
She clearly doesn't want to let go of his hand hand, doesn't want to leave his side. But she soothingly smoothes out his hair, places another gentle kiss to his forehead, before standing. "Please be good to him," even though she knows they won't. They won't, and she hates having to play along pretending that she believes 'in good hands' means anything.
"I... you'd let me? Stay there? My place is so awful." And she's sure he knows that.
good to wrap on your tag
"Yes. I'll let you, so long as you keep your nose clean. Is that understood? Set a good example for the others. Before you know it, you'll be sharing your happy home with Number 6 once more. Until then, I'll have a car take you back."
The goons from before have returned.
"Oh, and, you'll have to put that blindfold back on now, I'm afraid."
<3
Every part of her does want to fight back, take on Number 2 and his guards. But without her powers, with his control over this realm, she knows it won't get her far. Won't get her husband free when he's not even conscious enough to stumble out.
If she can't be a devoted wife, she can at least be an effective spy. She knows how to work through the pain to play the long game.
"You hear that, darling? We'll be happy soon," she promises, one last kiss.
And then she stands up straight, nodding in compliance as the blindfold is put back in place. "Of course."
