EVENT LOG
number 001




As your characters arrive to the hotel and check in at the front desk, they'll be handed a keycard for their room. If they're the type to linger or want to ask Mr Bennet questions, they'll be shooed off quite quickly by the hotel manager instead as today is a big day for the hotel.

"It's our grand opening," he explains. "Though, we were open beforehand just... now we're open to the multiverse! Isn't that wonderful?" Though he doesn't wait for a reply before moving on to the next guest in the queue and working to get their room next. Looks like they've been dismissed.

When they arrive to their room, they'll be greeted with a lush hotel room to their personal standards and quite ready to be enjoyed and lived in for the foreseeable future. On their pillow, will be a mint.

Or twelve mints.

Or half a mint?

For some people, there is just a note that says "sorry" and that's about it. Strange. Either way, they're free to have their mint(s) or not but it looks like they're not the only one settling into this strange hotel. Maybe they should strike up a conversation with another guest nearby after they've settled in?


SPA DAY.

After a few days of settling in, characters will find themselves waking up one morning and greeted by a coupon sitting on their nightstand. The coupon reads: FREE SPA DAY and nothing else. Which is kind of funny since, well, isn't everything already free? Either way, if your character tries to figure out what this means and go down to the spa, they'll run into a very busy staff ready to attend to whoever comes visit the spa. There are a few options available but strangely enough, after your character participates... they may find a few side effects too.

For instance:

  • Hot Tub: If your character visits the hot tub, they'll find themselves extremely lethargic for the rest of the day, falling asleep at a drop of a hat in the most inconvenient places. Perhaps in the hot tub itself? Or maybe on top of another guest? Oops!

  • Facial/Manicure/Pedicure: If your character opts for the more traditional spa day activities, they'll find themselves unable to stop talking afterwards. To the staff, to other guests, they've got a bit of a motormouth today.

  • Massage: Now, a massage, who doesn't like a good massage? Except afterwards, your character will find themselves particularly touchy feely with everyone they come across, being painfully clingy and unable to let go of their friends, or even strangers. Whoops.

  • Sauna: You would think the sauna would be safe but if your character goes in for a nice sweat, they'll come out feeling extra aggressive and itching for a fight, either physical or verbal. They'll start picking fights with the staff or other guests, unable to stop themselves.

All of these effects will wear off after a few hours, where your character will have to do a mortifying walk of shame after and apologize to folks. Oops.

Welcome to Hotel Caelum! Feel free to make up your own stuff to play with as well. Check out the locations page for ideas.

1............... hello again stranger

[personal profile] reinherits 2023-10-16 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
[hikari is just passing by in his exploration of the hotel, but he pauses when he sees kaveh in distress.]

Pardon. What did you lose?
ohthehumanities: (pic#16451916)

hello our most marriageable prince

[personal profile] ohthehumanities 2023-10-17 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
[OH NO--wait this isn't Alhaitham's house. This is--okay it's still a little embarrassing but not as bad as it could be.]

Ah--you haven't seen a keycard around, have you?
reinherits: (nm. 10)

STOP

[personal profile] reinherits 2023-10-17 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
[he blinks, though he seems nonjudgmental.]

A keycard? Aside from my own, I can't say I have. That's a rather unfortunate item to misplace...
ohthehumanities: (jade)

I JUST THINK HE DESERVES TO BE LOVED

[personal profile] ohthehumanities 2023-10-17 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[DAMN... he sighs, as Mehrak beeps in concern.]

Ugh, just my luck. [Is that what it is.] They'll probably charge for a replacement...
reinherits: art used with permission from artist (nm. 1)

no.

[personal profile] reinherits 2023-10-18 12:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[he glances at mehrak in surprise, because beeping?? object??? but.]

... Hm. That would be rather unfortunate, especially to be so soon after arriving. I would be happy to help you look, if you'd like.
ohthehumanities: shemika98425261 @ twitter (mocha)

I'm telling spoon

[personal profile] ohthehumanities 2023-10-20 05:31 am (UTC)(link)
[THERE ARE TWO WOLVES INSIDE HIM... one leaps with hope at the prospect of a second pair of eyes to help out, and one feels bad for roping this stranger into his problems...]

Oh, I mean--I wouldn't want to keep you from getting settled.
reinherits: (nm. 39)

TELL SPOON WHAT?

[personal profile] reinherits 2023-10-20 12:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[kaveh your wolves

hikari shakes his head lightly, though.]


No need to worry. There's little I have to get settled to begin with, and certainly nothing that can't wait.
ohthehumanities: ggelus_ @ twitter (atrovirens)

that you're denying her beloved hikari love

[personal profile] ohthehumanities 2023-10-20 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[He hesitates a little further... but it would be arguably more of a hassle for more people if he can't find his keycard!! So.]

Well... if you're sure. [If it takes too long he'll just suck it up and go grovel at the front desk. His dignity is worth saving this kind stranger some time!!] It must be around here somewhere, I haven't left the hotel since I received it.
reinherits: (nm. 17)

what's she going to do, she ain't here

[personal profile] reinherits 2023-10-20 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Hm...

[holding up a hand to his mouth, thinking...]

Apologies, as this is a trite suggestion, but what places do you recall last being?
ohthehumanities: anna_drw01 @ twitter (cinnabar)

zetsu and I have to do everything around here

[personal profile] ohthehumanities 2023-10-22 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Kaveh frowns, retracing his steps.] Well, I started out downstairs with everyone else--I did spend quite a bit of time down there, so it's possible I left it on a countertop. Then I heard about a cafe on the 9th floor, so I went there first, since I was a little hungry and I was curious to see what sort of foods they have here. I wandered a bit afterwards, but then I came down here.
reinherits: (nm. 10)

HELLO? i better see kaveh smooching people

[personal profile] reinherits 2023-10-22 06:03 am (UTC)(link)
Hm... well, perhaps we ought to check with the front desk first, then? Aside from taking a look at the area, we can ask if anyone else found the key and left it with the staff.
ohthehumanities: (pic#16451924)

he will smooch hikari

[personal profile] ohthehumanities 2023-10-26 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose that's as good of a place to start as any. [He smiles, apologetic.] Thank you for this, by the way. [Muttered:] Of course something like this would happen to me...
reinherits: (nm. 17)

i'd like to see him try

[personal profile] reinherits 2023-10-27 12:27 pm (UTC)(link)
No need for thanks. If we are all staying here, it's only appropriate to help one another, after all.

[KAVEH YOUR LUCK..... but off they go]
ohthehumanities: (pic#16451911)

IS THAT A CHALLENGE BECAUSE I WILL RISE TO IT

[personal profile] ohthehumanities 2023-11-01 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
[That is true... he would openly agree with it if it wasn't directed at him, but since it is, he'll just be quietly grateful.

To the lobby!! And Kaveh will lead the way to start checking the various available surfaces. At least they can talk as he does... friendship building...]


Are you planning on staying long?
reinherits: (nm. 36)

nvm i'm scared to challenge pixi

[personal profile] reinherits 2023-11-02 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[a pause]

I... am not sure yet.

[very conducive answer for holding conversations]
ohthehumanities: yosso_oa @ twitter (hawthorne berry)

I should've had them go key hunting on the aphro floor... tch

[personal profile] ohthehumanities 2023-11-04 07:29 am (UTC)(link)
[HELP.... SWEET HIKARI!!! It's fine, though; Kaveh just nods, like that makes sense.]

Understandable. It's probably best not to make any hasty decisions. If I wasn't between projects, I'd probably be a little more cautious, myself.
reinherits: (nm. 10)

STOP

[personal profile] reinherits 2023-11-06 04:03 pm (UTC)(link)
... Mm. It's quite a bit to take in right now, but perhaps it is best to deal with things one step at a time.

[even if the current step is FINDING KAVEH'S KEY!!]

What sort of projects do you work on?
ohthehumanities: shemika98425261 @ twitter (mocha)

[personal profile] ohthehumanities 2023-11-10 07:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[HIS KEYYYYY... don't mind Kaveh as he pokes around, scouring the floor for it.]

I'm an architect. An architectural designer, to be precise, though I take on other things occasionally.
reinherits: art used with permission from artist (nm. 1)

[personal profile] reinherits 2023-11-13 01:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[nodding...]

I see. I fear I know little about the finer details of the work, but I am grateful for the work that architects do.
ohthehumanities: (kohl)

[personal profile] ohthehumanities 2023-11-15 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[That makes him laugh a little, though not unkindly.]

I'd be a little concerned if you did know. It's not really a subject anyone outside of the field is interested in. [He tries, but. y'know. He knows he's not going to have long discussions about load-bearing structures with the grocer or whatever.]

What about you?
reinherits: (nm. 22)

[personal profile] reinherits 2023-11-20 03:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[





you know when you meet someone and they have a cool proper job and then you have to admit you're unemployed? that's hikari's feeling right now.]


... I travel.
ohthehumanities: ggelus_ @ twitter (atrovirens)

[personal profile] ohthehumanities 2023-11-23 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
[HELP... HIKARI...

Fortunately Kaveh is a genshin, so he just nods like this makes sense.]


Ah, something of an adventurer?
reinherits: art used with permission from artist (nm. 1)

[personal profile] reinherits 2023-11-24 02:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[it's fine..... one day he'll have a proper job as king.....

he nods slowly.]


Of sorts, although I do not travel for the adventure, specifically.

[but he does sidequests so that counts surely]
ohthehumanities: (pic#16451928)

[personal profile] ohthehumanities 2023-11-25 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
Then, are you seeking something?
reinherits: (nm. 10)

[personal profile] reinherits 2023-11-28 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
[a slow nod, before he pauses, as though considering his words.]

... I sought my former allies to help rebuild my homeland, which has met disaster. And I have picked up several traveling companions along the way, so I would like to see their goals through as well.
