non-trial Alice murdergame stuff

[darknesshermit]

This post is basically a catch-all for stuff from a pretend murdergame round and Alice, because throwing her in there could only be a good idea, right.

Hit me up with anything at any point! Introductions, weekly stuff, parties, afterparties, even the final investigation I don't care. I just want to play her in this kind of setting with this kind of CR.

Her title is Restrictive because I'm mean.

Why wouldn't they? They're kidnappers - you don't expect morals out of them, right?

[maidofmistakes]

But none of it makes sense! If they wanted the world to be in danger, they would have... well, kidnapped a better super. And you're a civilian! I mean, unless you aren't a civilian and I should just stop talking, shouldn't I.

[darknesshermit]

No, you're right. I'm only a student - hardly worth kidnapping at all.

[Well, maybe more than the average person on the street, but...]

...What is a 'super', incidentally?

[maidofmistakes]

Huh? A superhero! Or, actually, anyone with powers or abilities stronger than most people. I didn't have any back on my home planet, but then I had to escape it and I crashed into a planet where the sun gave me super strength, flight, heat vision... but all I ever seem to do with these powers is cause accidents.

[darknesshermit]

So what I'd call a Blazer, except... also an alien?

[She'd not normally believe that, except for this whole situation.]

[maidofmistakes]

Not always! There are a lot from Earth, and some who don't even have powers and use super technology or something like that instead! Wait, what's a Blazer?

[darknesshermit]

Someone who can materialize a weapon from their soul, and use special powers related to that.

...Normally, I'm one, but...

[Tried that earlier. Didn't work.]

[maidofmistakes]

Normally? ...Guess that would explain why I haven't accidentally broken anything and nothing's on fire. How does that even work?

[darknesshermit]

I don't know. It shouldn't be possible to take my powers away from me.

[Given that they're from her soul, and all.]

[maidofmistakes]

Then it can't just be that I'm cut off from Earth's sun, if you were born with your powers. What is this place? We must be on some far-off planet or another world where nothing works the same! I wish I knew what to do about it.

[darknesshermit]

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Our captors will be making their appearance soon. Kidnappers always do, to make their demands or to show off.

[maidofmistakes]

I guess so. You know a lot about this stuff.

[darknesshermit]

I've run into this kind of situation before - well, the 'murder each other to escape' part is new to me.

[maidofmistakes]

Being kidnapped because of your powers?

[darknesshermit]

Not that - ordinary hostage situation. I was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

[maidofmistakes]

Ouch. I don't know what I'd do. Maybe you're right that at least it's not worse, though I still don't feel any better.

[darknesshermit]

I wouldn't expect you to - no one would, after being kidnapped.

Why don't we have breakfast? We might be hostages, but we still have to eat.

[maidofmistakes]

Sure. So you found food in the kitchen? I haven't looked. What do they have?

[darknesshermit]

Something I have good news on, at last! The produce is all good quality, and so is the meat. We have a good deal of nonperishables, too. We won't be making gourmet meals, but we won't be living off of cup ramen, either.

[maidofmistakes]

That sounds fun! Maybe we can set up some baking for everyone, like they do at the cafeteria at Super Hero High.

[darknesshermit]

I'd like that! I'm not an expert baker but I know enough not to set a fire - it could be a nice way to get to know each other.

[maidofmistakes]

Sounds great! I mean, everyone will agree that it's better than giving in to this game, right?

[darknesshermit]

Of course. Who wants to be ordered to kill people?

[There's going to be murder. There will probably be more than one murder. The question is when.]

[maidofmistakes]

So we can just wait for someone to rescue us! Or... I don't know if we can save ourselves from in here. Maybe if I were more of a hero.

[darknesshermit]

It's worthwhile to investigate what we can from here. There might be something we can do, even if it's small.
