Week 1 [Day 1-Day 3]

[calloperators]

[After a long stressful day like this has been, maybe you want to curl up in bed and try to sleep this whole thing off, or maybe you stay up all night desperately trying to find a way out of this town. Whether it be asking the cops for help, trying to steal a car, or just simply trying to walk out of town, you will unfortunately find your attempts to escape fruitless.

Even with it being obvious something strange is going on, no one has shown their face yet to even hint that they're the ones behind it. And you have no idea if or when they will.

However, in the very least you have a whole town to explore, and at the start of each day, and the beginning of every night, no matter where you are, you'll suddenly hear a radio crackle to life. Whether this is comforting or unsettling? Well, that's up to you to decide.

Just have a good time and try not think about the letter you got earlier, okay?]

[ DAY 1 (SUNDAY) || NIGHT 1 (MONDAY) || DAY 2 (TUESDAY) || NIGHT 2 (WEDNESDAY) || DAY 3 (THURSDAY) ]
((OOC: Welcome to Week 1 of Hotline! As you can probably tell by the fact that Day 2 and beyond are frozen, we will have no grace week so we can get right into the murder!

And if you want to investigate the town, you just need to write INVESTIGATION in your header! Have fun ;) ))

MOTIVE: THROWING IT ALL AWAY

[hotlinenpcs]

[You never so much as hear the phone ringing, but for some reason, there's another message on your answering machine. You can tell as much from the light that's begun to blink again.

If you pick up the receiver and press the button, the following recorded message will play. The voice sounds similar to the one you heard the other night.]

Good morning! Here's your wake up call, as requested! Hope you're finding everything okay at the Palms Motel.

Sorry about the laundry room and pool, by the way--we've provided some compensation for the lack of these services. It'd be awful if you weren't enjoying yourself while you were here. I mean, can you imagine what would happen if someone took everything important away from you? Your friends, your job, your power...that wouldn't be very fun, now, would it?

Anyways, thanks for choosing the Palms Motel! With the Palms, paradise in within reach.

[The speaker's voice remains upbeat despite the underlying threat. There’s an audible click, and the recording stops.]
