1) like freaks of nurture, isn't it funny?

Early in the morning, close to 9am, an obnoxiously cheery voice comes on over the ship's intercom.

"Hellllooooooooooooo this is your friendly neighbourhood Flan! Do you currently share your room with an item that makes you nervous or scared? Did Sundries give you something dangerous and you don't know what to do with it? Bring it to room 160, and me and Wayne will store that item safely and securely for you! All items are guaranteed to be kept according to industry standards and you can check them back out at any time!

About midway through June, posters begin going up around the ship. They’re crude, clearly Friday-made creations, with cute little drawings and bubble letters. They all say basically the same thing:

SENIOR PROM
fun under the sea

JUNE 20
7PM TO 1AM
MAIN DINING ROOM

CRUISE FORMAL
NO ALCOHOL
ANNOUNCEMENT AT MIDNIGHT

When you arrive at the dining room at the appointed time, there is an arch of blue and white balloons in front of the door. As you pass through, you’re immediately greeted by the familiar icepick headache that always follows sojourns into other dimensions. The reason is immediately obvious: instead of the expected dining room, you are very much in what appears to be a school gym. A sizable one, with a DJ booth and a small stage, but you can still see the basketball hoops, for all that they’re covered in balloons. A lot of balloons. An honestly inadvisable amount of balloons.

There is a large dance floor in the middle of the room, under a spinning disco ball. Round tables of about four or five folding chairs each surround it; behind them, one can find the punch bowl, and a small buffet table of mostly finger foods (also a chocolate fountain, natch). the DJ booth isn’t manned, but it could be; it’ll play anyway, mostly 80s songs.

There are two gaudy thrones on the stage: one has a crown, the other a tiara, as well as sashes proclaiming the wearers to be prom king and queen. Behind the stage, a string is attached to the bucket of pig’s blood directly above the thrones, if you decide to be the funniest person to ever live.

There is a microphone stand on the stage. It doesn’t seem to be on.

Who: Okie and you
What: Do you believe in life after labyrinth?
When: Nebulously May
Where: Playback and the lounge

1. Every Time I Raise My Voice Inside I Feel So Tired

Everyone got stuck in a locked room surrounded by their own heads and the heads of people they know. That sucked. A lot of people were forced from the locked room to go slog through a bunch of murder puzzles. Also sucked. Okie finished the murder puzzles for everyone! That was kinda cool. The person behind the labyrinth was a kid and that made Okie yell at Vance. Not also cool.

He’s exhausted. He’s been exhausted, constantly. It’s all he can do most of this month to leave his room for anything more than food. When he does, it’s generally to change out books from the library and take them to the lounge or the arcade to read and fall asleep to. While he still tries to keep his Mask off most of the time to be his full self, he spends some days with it on, just to grab a little less attention as he moves through the ship. The clouds haven’t parted, and the air around feels heavy, and humid.

2. Trying To Stop But This Feeling Remains

[it happens in less than the blink of an eye.

April 10th. 10:47 AM. no matter where they were, no matter what they were doing, most passengers previously aboard the Serena Eterna find themselves in an empty room. not a very large room, but not a very small one, either. stone floors. stone ceiling. mostly stone walls. whatever they were wearing before, they aren’t wearing it now; all of them are now in one of two outfits, with no real seeming rhyme or reason as to who gets what. there is a large wooden door in the center of one wall, locked with a heavy drawbar. there is an LED display above it, like you would see at a sports arena; it’s currently turned off.

and then there are the heads.

the walls are mostly stone. mostly, because seeming every square inch of every wall has a head sticking out of it. human, animal, mixes of both and neither. passengers may recognize friends, or family. fellow passengers, specifically the dead (and anyone living that opted out). themselves, if they’ve ever died during the voyage. every head ends just at the top of the neck, and every one has their eyes wide open, expressions glassy and unseeing, but entirely neutral. just staring forward.

the display flickers to life, displaying the following information:]

NEXT: DAISY TONNER

64 LIVES

[has anyone seen Fio?]
