Ski Lodge!

Welcome to the Sunbeam Inn!

Need a break from life? Preferably somewhere comfortable? We've got you covered! With plush rooms, state-of-the-art television, and, of course, lots of popcorn, the Sunbeam Inn has all you could need, and more! Hang out at our pristine pool (that definitely isn't just a hole in the ground filled with dirty water), borrow the latest from our library (that totally isn't a dusty bathroom filled with books in the toilet bowl), and shop at our exclusive candy shop (which of course isn't just a bowl filled with our expired chocolate, now why would you think that, certainly not because we told you so!), and more! Escape from everything, the right way!

We look forward to seeing you here,

Luxury & Contentment

P.S., beware the dragon. She's been in a mood.

 

We will be accepting a maximum of 12 CBers.

Wow, thanks for all the tops @Sempreverde! But don't worry, this won't die (I mean, unless it does, but it won't), usually it takes me like a month in between to get out new parts sorry (bc, like... I'm totally not spending the first half of the month procrastinating writing this...), so feel free to let it sink to the bottom if you want and I'll top it when there's a new part (so other more recent projects can be on top)! :)

Day 3, Part 1

 

It was morning now, and the CBers were waking from a restless sleep. They'd decided to camp out in the Great Room instead of sleeping in their bedrooms - a waste of some good rooms, yes, but it was a new day, and according to the Game they were all now apparently playing, that meant that someone else was supposed to die today. Silver had reasoned that you could never be too safe, so they had all set up some mattresses next to the couches to sleep in. They had also decided to use pangolin's idea of a buddy system, using the roommate assignments: BookGirl and Gloomy; Hawkstar and pangolin; Luna Silvermoon and Silver; Cillian and Moon Wolf - originally Celine had been Moon Wolf's roommate, but... y'know; and Parody and Sempreverde. Basically, they had taken every safeguard possible to protect them from the murderer in their wake. Speaking of... none of the CBers wanted to dwell too much on that part of the Game. All of the CBers seemed so nice and non-murdery (well, except for Gloomy... Verde could definitely see Gloomy as a murderer. But still. She could be pretty sweet when she wanted to!), and it seemed a pity to think that any one of them could be a murderer! Not to mention, a bit freaky. Especially if it was your buddy that was the murderer...

Luxury and Contentment were still in their room upstairs, but Riley had decided to camp out with the CBers, and was stuffing handfuls of White Rabbit candy into xyr mouth. Seriously. Xe always seemed to be eating something. Popcorn, pie, candy canes... Cillian supposed it was part of being a chef. You came to appreciate food so much that you wanted to eat it day in and day out. Of course, all Riley ever seemed to eat were sweets and snacks...

The uncomfortable silence that had descended upon them all was suddenly popped when Parody jumped to their feet. "Well, we're not going to get anything accomplished just sitting here moping around!" fae said. "We've already taken all the precautions we could, so if we're gonna be trapped here for a few more days, it couldn't hurt to have some fun!"

"That's true," said Moon Wolf. "What do you all want to do?"

Pangolin jumped up, smiling. "What about a friendly competition? We're all already split up into teams. Let's have a scavenger hunt around the Inn - remember the Deck is off-limits though, and probably Lux and Contentment's room too. First to bring back... let's see.. something you can tie, something that acts as a mirror, something you can bounce, and something you can wear as a sock, wins! Meet back here?"

The CBers were off.

AAA I just realized there's one spot left! I hope it's okay that I haven't read all the parts yet but I mean to do that once I fill out this form. Also, this is my first ski lodge, so yippee! I'm excited :D

Name: Lillagwaith

Pronouns: she/her

Personality: very aloof, odd, creative, quiet, intelligent. quick temper and not easily trusting/trusted

Appearance: tall and slender, with long (and I mean LONG) blonde hair and blue-gray eyes. always have ears taped to look like an elf's (or maybe they just look that way...?).

What's in your bag?: a small harp/lyre (rather weather-worn), a roll of painter's tape (nearly depleted), a copy of The Silmarillion by J. R. R. Tolkien (well-read), another copy of the prior but in German, a hairbrush (wooden), an elegant knife-dagger (well-polished), sketchbook (ragged), dog food (for Huan, see "other")

Closest thing that could be used as a weapon?: obviously the knife, I suppose. or the Silmarillion.

What are you wearing?: a long gray knit sweater that appears to have tiny flecks of silver glitter in it, brown cargo pants that look purple sometimes in the right lighting, and no shoes. yup, no shoes. occasionally wearing an olive-green baseball hat with a large amount of pins on it.

You colored your hair?: I prefer to keep my natural color, but if I did color it, I would want it white. why not?

Would you rather be happy or healthy?: healthy, I suppose.

Greatest fear?: losing my memory.

What's after death?: heaven

Fight or Flight?: just keep my distance and sing a song in a different language

Weirdest food combination?: I don't eat a huge variety... but I suppose yogurt and raw oats is weird?

Favorite song: Ceasar by the Oh Hellos

When you grow up: I want to be an author who also writes poems with my books

In the night lurks: dreams... and me.

On your popcorn: butter, lots and lots of butter. and perhaps some more butter?

Why did the chicken cross the road?: because he thought that he would come to Valinor upon crossing.

Other: I am occasionally seen randomly walking/dancing around. I'm really light, so my feet hardly make a sound on floors. Oh, is it all right that I brought my wolfhound Huan along? I hope he isn't too big.

Day 3, part 2

 

Lillagwaith rubbed her head, feeling... fuzzy. It was as if her edges were blurring together, mixing and weaving and separating and pulling; and her body, once a solid mass, was frayed around the lines. She felt as if there was nothing left but thread holding her together, and that the thread was thin and fragile and could break any second. It was an odd feeling, hanging there in limbo, the static of the old television rubbing molecules together and then there was sudden...

darkness.

She opened her eyes again and found herself in the middle of a room that once must have been grand but that had since fallen victim to time and neglect. All of a sudden, she knew that this was the Great Room; she knew all the stories that surrounded it, all the stories that made up Sunbeam Inn, gasped in that moment, that hit of knowing, but then in a flash it was all... gone.

She still felt fuzzy. Disjointed. Disconnected. Nothing quite made sense. Hadn't she just been in her room...? She recalled the form - delivered by magic termite - she had filled out just moments before being transported here, and shrugged. She supposed it was all odd enough, but being an odd girl herself, she figured she might as well just read her book.

Disjointed... Disconnected...

Curling up on the couch, she took out her love-worn copy of the Silmarillion and opened to the start, breathing in its comforting musty smell before diving into its pages...

She looked up. A shadow was blocking her light, the shape belonging to it a girl with long brown hair and excited brown eyes. "I love the Silm!" the girl exclaimed.

Silver Crystal... drifted the thought, lazily, into Lillagwaith's mind. Lillagwaith smiled, looked at the girl... disjointed... disconnected..

Something wasn't right... something was interfering with her... internal... static... 

Lillagwaith fainted.
