jumpscares | (OPEN) COMMUNITY MESSAGE BOARD @ STARTER BASE

▶ 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 was born with mine. How'd you get yours? And don't say you were born with them, because that has just become a boring answer. Don't be boring, man.

(Total chance. I've been speeding all my life.
Good luck beating that.)

Opposite of boring, so you're in luck. I wasn't born with them. It was kind of an accident, actually.

[ Kind of because it was also a preordained accident. Caused by a guy who is 100% an evil sociopath. ]

(Oh, I'll try. And succeed. Don't you worry.)

How do you accidentally get superpowers? I thought that only happened in TV shows.

[ it's okay, peter gets it. the guy that is his dad and suspects he is his dad but neither of them have confirmed is his dad, is kind of a sociopath too. ]

(Hah. Good luck.)

Happens in real life too. I could tell you more later if you want. I don't really feel comfortable writing it all down on a post-it.

[ Yaaaay sociopath fathers-and-or-father-figures! Why is it always the crazy ones ... ]

Yeah, I get ya. And if we actually meet somewhere, we can have that race and confirm that I'm the fastest. And talk about powers and stuff too, I guess.

[ and on another post-it next to that one— ]

I've met other superpowered people too, so that's cool. Born with or somehow given another way, other people have different powers that aren't just being fast. This place is totally awesome, outside of the whole apocalypse thing.

Hahaha, you wish, pal! But yeah, talking about all the other stuff sounds great.

:)

Really? I'm starting to feel like a bunch of us were pulled here for a reason. Maybe our powers have something to do with it ...

Dunno. Have you only met powered people? Do they want us to clean up all the zombies for them or something? Or are they all just douchebags who find it funny or something?

Maybe this really is one of those reality tv shows.

What, like the Hunger Games but with zombies?

Not sure I'm okay with that. Not sure I want that to be a reality.

Edited 2015-07-29 02:39 (UTC)

I don't know what that is. But sure.

Is a game about being hungry that bad

You don't know the Hunger Games?

Okay that's sad, if I had more time and post-its I'd totally give you a detailed summary but as it is ... battle to the death, one victor survives and it's about kids.
