Braving possible face-rippy-offness at the hands of one of those creatures(should any lurk within the other rooms) you head into the Bunk Room and then grab the handle of the door leading into the Toilets. It is unlocked, happily enough, but what is that.......drops of blood above the handle?

"Nah, couldn't be......." you think to yourself as you head into the toilets, not noticing the webbing slung across parts of the ceiling at first as you look around the room for anyone or anything that might lay beyond the threshold.

Nothing seems amiss so far, but as with the Bunk Room several bulbs seemed to have burnt out in the Toilets as well, making it hard for you to see the small drops of blood heading towards the toilet supply closet. You can see other things quite easily though, like the row of sinks set against the northern wall next where you are standing. Beyond that are the toilet cubicles lining the western and eastern walls.

Braving the dim lighting you head into the nearest stall, happy to finally put the day's "business" behind you, as it were. It is only as you are finishing up that you look up and notice what appears to be some sort of webbing along parts of the room's ceiling.

"It's probably just some spiders." you whisper to yourself as you finish dressing and head out of the cubicle. "Big, hairy steroid using spiders." you mumble as you see that almost 1/3 of the ceiling is covered in the stuff, which looks like grayish cotton candy.

It is only when you see the blood trail on the ground(light droplets) leading to the closed door leading into the supply closet that you think to yourself "Oh crap.....crap crap crap crap crap." as you make for the exit back into the Bunk Room. As you pass by the main entrance to the toilets(the door that you tried earlier) you note that the toilets room key is still in the lock, covered in a small amount of blood as well. Running back into the Bunk Room, you breath a sigh of relief. You didn't see any nasties in the toilets room, but that didn't mean they were there.....and that BLOOD. Who or what caused it? And what lay inside the toilets supply closet?

[OOC: Will update map with blood trail leading to toilets supply closet in a bit.......rest of map is updated though.]

================================================


Seeing that others have started checking out the other rooms you feel left out, so you decide to do your own investigation-ing as well......starting with the Shower Room. Walking through the dimly lit BunkRoom commons past the dim light of the TV, you keep your eyes peeled for any more of those things from before, watching the floor and ceiling(well they may be able to climb walls so who knows?) carefully as you head quickly to the other side of the room.

"Well that wasn't so bad." you say to yourself as you note that the lights have blown on this side of the room while checking your immediate surroundings for any danger. Luckily for you, though, the emergency lighting in the nearby guard station seems to have clicked on. Reddish light filters through the blinds of the guard station and illuminates the eastern section of the Patient Bunkroom, including the NE corner of the room where the doors to the bathing supplies room & Shower Room are located.

Going over to the Shower Room door, you turn the knob......oddly enough though the door appears to be unlocked, but the door itself won't budge. Could it be blocked somehow from the other side perhaps? Well whatever the cause is, you know for certain that you won't be entering the showers anytime soon(unless someone finds an alternate way in somehow and clears whatever is blocking the door from the other side that is.)

=====================================

Heading into the room(in part to explore a bit and in part to see what Staines is up to.) you wander over to the shelves lining the western wall to perhaps find a good book or magazine to pass the time with. On the shelves themselves you see several board games(Including the standard therapy room favorites like chess & checkers....and also stuff like Monopoly & Payday.) which don't seem to interest you at the moment. You also see several decks of playing cards & an old beat up copy of Yahtzee.

Looking at the books lined up on the shelves next to the games, you find a complete(albeit slightly outdated) set of encyclopedias and a dictionary/thesaurus set, as well as a long row of hardcover short story compilations & also some classics by the likes of Poe & Shakespeare.

"I wonder....if I start pulling on them will a secret passage open up leading me out of this hellhole?" you wonder as you continue to scan the shelves. "With my luck i'd probably fine a bunch of those creatures waiting for me on the other side, sitting at quaint little tables while wearing bibs that read 'Eat OF Joe' or something."

On the last set of shelves past the games and hardcover books you find all the dogeared softcover books and magazines.......searching through them for something to pass the time you spot a copy of Invasion of the People Snatchers & out of curiosity you pick it up. "Maybe I can find a few pointers in this to keep me alive awhile longer." You mumble jokingly as you pocket the book to read later if you get bored. You continue scanning the shelves afterwards to see if you can find anything of use but nothing seems to POP OUT at you so you wander back to the group in the hall.


OOC to ALL: New Day Two map is above on the Day Two intro post

As I stand by the door, clutching my bagged possessions close to my chest and going over the past badassery in my mind I realise something:
With Nickel dead that means I get to play as Professor Plum.
Rejoicing my good fortune I immediately put all memory of flying fish out of mind and rush to the shelves to conduct a thourough search of board games for Proffessor Plum.
At Long Last! My time has come! Through patience and luck and the skill of the survivor my ambitions have been realised. My hands are shaking.

You walk over to where Tanner is checking out the bookshelves and search for your favorite game.......finding it easily among the rest. Clue....ah the memories. As you move the box you notice a lucky penny underneath it. You pocket it with glee.

After the horrible experiences in the bathroom I decide to search the closet for some items or supplies.

Your gun at the ready, you enter the Bunkroom and head over to the closet. Opening the door, you note that the light is out. The switch lingers nearby and you contemplate testing it out so you can search the closet for anything of use.

Do you try the switch?

I will head into my cell, turn on the light & toss the bed.
It's amazing the things you find under a matress that you thought were lost forever....

OOC: Going to assume you meant you wanted to search your room for items and not clues/etc.

You head into your "room" and see the light is off.......instinctively you reach for the light switch and with a satisfying *click* warm light floods the small space & your eyes.

"Well no nasties here it seems." you say to yourself as you go over to your bed to sit and gather yourself for a bit. After a few minutes of relaxing you decide to search the area in case you left something under the bed which might be of use. Looking under the bed you find nothing, so you rip the bedding off of the mattress as well. Sadly you find nothing of note. With a sigh you make one last attempt to find anything of use by looking between the mattress and boxspring........bingo. Between the two you find the key to the lockers in the Toilets Supply Closet, which you had nipped off one of the guards earlier in the week(With plans to use it in the future to TP the BunkRoom guard station[Well they DID deny you a new train set for the Day Room last week, the buggers.].).

"Nice......" you think to yourself before remembering the trail of blood leading to the Toilets Supply Closet in the toilets room next door, which Bundy informed everyone about as he ran back into the room a short while ago. "Hmm...." you continue to think as you wonder what to do next.

OOC: To clarify the key opens the lockers in the toilet supply closet, not the actual toilet supply closet itself....which is currently unlocked.

Oh yeah turn that switch on.

You walk into the closet just enough to reach for the light switch and flip it quickly, waiting for the lights to go on. At first nothing happens, but after a second or two one of the two bulbs flickers on, the other one seemingly burnt out.

As the sole source of illumination in the closet lights up it starts to flicker back off after a second, then on again, before remaining on albeit a bit dimmed.

"Now all we need is one of them things to jump out and give me a heart attack." you mutter as you look around.

Looking around you note the cupboards against the west wall containing the fresh bedding(blankets/sheets/etc), and the others containing the clean clothing set along the northern wall. Along the southern wall and next to the door are the hampers where dirty clothing and bedding is set to be cleaned, and some trash cans are set along the eastern wall.

OOC: If you want to examine(basic description given if you do this) or search any of the room's set pieces(hampers/bedding cupboards, clothing cupboards, etc) feel free to, making sure to BOLD your actions.

Further OOC: New Day Two map attached.

Having that penny snatched out from under my nose, I decide to have a look in Nickel's room to see if he left anything useful there. I walk down cautiously and try the light switch.

OOC Can we please get a list of player / Character names?
I'm getting a bit confused as to who is who & I've lost the link to the sign up thread!

YES!! Lucky penny!
Pride and bravity fill my bosom. Nothing can stop me now.
The oozing light of the guard station beacons me. What treasures await discovery? I take my whistle chain in my left hand and my small axe in my right, and with more confidence than sense I stride across the patient bunk room to search guard station for clues, utilising small axe to try to solve any impeding problems I may encounter in the attempt.

"Hey, Joe, Fancy coming with me a minute?
I've got the key to the toilet supply lockers.
How do you feel like backing me up in case there's anything your axe might find tasty?"
