▶ WHO: Everyone!!
▶ DATE: July 9th 2015
▶ WARNINGS: none thus far
▶ SUMMARY: A place to share your ic infos, if you please! Thomas is a freaking busy body, and he wants to get all the clues about this place gathered up, so he's going to start writing stuff he's found/woke up with onto a wall in one of the labs, and leave notes around the compound for others to do the same.

[ in one of the lab rooms, you'll find a message (possibly with more messages) scrawled on one of the walls (literally ON TO it, with either pen or a marker). it reads: ]

[ because thomas is super good about being specific. and communicative. but basically, that's what he's posting here - notes. clues, useful information, curious things - information. the advantage the gladers had in getting out of the maze was that they were united, and cooperating for the same goal. thomas doesn't know anyone here, and only has maybe two pieces of what's a much larger puzzle. he needs the rest.

so, around the compound, you'll find scraps of paper that have been taped or pinned to walls (or written directly onto them) that read in the same handwriting: ]

SEE LAB ROOM [[ ROOM NUMBER HERE ]] FOR INFO

IF YOU FOUND SOMETHING, WRITE IT DOWN

[ again, he is awesome at being verbose. if your character decides to investigate the room, they'll find thomas's notes already pinned or written onto the wall, plus whatever is left in the comments below. thomas himself will likely be around more often than not, reading things, scrawling stuff of paper, looking contemplative, or being passed the fuck out in a corner, if they want to bug him. ]

[[ ooc; okay so thomas is a nut, and also i thought we could use an icly set up means for characters to share the clues they woke up with/stuff they found/whatever other information about stuff going down. if you want, put up a top level for the actual note your dude/dudette is leaving, and idk people can tag into it if they want to seek your character out and bug them? or write notes under the note you left? idefk, let's do stuff, go wild???

PS, IF YOU WANT THE TL;DR VERSION OF THIS, i tried organizing an IC list that Thomas would have made over here. It's not perfect, so don't consider that like end all be all, but thought it might help. ]]

I woke up with a bag of candy ( free to a good home if you want to trust it ) and a file about myself??

Also heard someone say "The toxin is working"

if you bring the candy to the lab party we could test it

you think the whole toxin thing means they made these zombies?

I think it could mean exactly that. Maybe making the zombies was their intention. Or maybe they set out to make something else, got zombies and decided that was good enough or better than what they were hoping for.

Long story short, I think the toxin thing and the zombies are probably related.

that makes it sound like they were trying to weaponize something

could this have been a testing facility?

does anyone know where the voices are coming from? I didn't hear anything like that when I woke up.

If they were, do you think this is actually success or failure?

Maybe. If it is, there'll likely be some sign of it around somewhere.

As for the voices, I personally have no idea about that. I was alone in the room when I woke up. Employee log that mysteriously happened to be playing when I woke up?

failure. it's usually a failure if everyone's dead.

maybe once we get into the computer

did you see any working speakers? because i haven't. it could be ghosts.

Right. You're right.

All of our answers could be in there. Any progress yet?

That's just ridiculous. It wasn't ghosts. I didn't see any working speakers though, no.

not that i know of, it's better than me.

why are ghosts ridiculous?

Well someone's bound to figure out how to get in eventually. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

I guess I don't actually have a good answer for that anymore, now that I think about it.

fingers crossed

and usually i try to be pretty skeptical but we're in a world full of zombies. ghosts might not be out of the question. or some kind of science-y temporal thing but i'm not smart enough to know anything about that

If there really are zombies, then I guess that ghosts aren't as farfetched an idea as I once thought.

So there actually are zombies out there?

i'd sure call them zombies, but we don't know how they got that why or why

the only "zombies" i've heard of back home were actually this whole alien mess so i can't really compare

That's probably another question that could be answered by getting into a computer.

I don't know of anything back home that's even vaguely zombie-like except for insects so I really can't either.

...alien mess?

there were these things called black lanterns that like reconstructed the corpses of dead people and ate hearts????

it was messed up

Reconstructed the corpses of dead people and ate hearts? That sounds horrific.

You don't think it's something like that again, do you?

i don't think so. they were always corpses of people we knew, to get an emotional reaction (makes the heart taste better, i guess?)

Oh good. That is oddly reassuring. I never thought that I'd say that about zombies being zombies.

it could always be worse!

The toxin is working?

Someone here? Did you see who it was?

Unfortunately, I only heard the voice. I didn't manage to see who might have said it.

CAITLIN WHERE R U IT'S CISCO COME FIND ME!!!

also what kind of candy?

Cisco! You're here too?! I'm going to the medical bay to see if I can find any more supplies. Then to the lab. Door marked 'syringe meeting'. Either of those.

It's a bag of Riesen.
