( 003 » ENSEMBLE ) party time.
» WHO? Everyone
» WHEN? July 1 to July 8
» WHERE? Entire Station
» WHAT? 168 hours of being forced to listen to cheesy music on repeat…
» WARNINGS? the mundane and slightly ridiculous becoming terrible, cheesy pop music, forced sleep deprivation, anger, loss of control, emotions, potential for stabbing, hallucinations, mania, memory loss, confusion, seizures, depression.
It starts in the mess hall and it starts slowly. At first, it can barely be heard over the conversations that are happening but as the volume increases, it becomes apparent that music is playing. Not just any music: characters from Earth will recognise these pop hits from the 70s, 80s and 90s. They’re the kind of hits one might find on a Spotify playlist titled “Top 100 Cheesy Hits” or “Songs To Sing To In The Shower”. Power ballads. Boy bands. Girl bands. Woodstock.
Soon, the music can be heard all across the station, blasting from every speaker, audible in every room. Characters who were asleep in their quarters will be woken by the music’s volume, characters under the shower might want to start singing along (but remember, the walls might just be thin enough for the neighbours to hear) and if characters clear some chairs, there’s enough space in the bar for an impromptu dance floor.
Some characters have been working on improving the replicators, too, so while the alcohol supplies at the bar are dwindling and all but gone, the replicators are now capable of making something that’s palatable, even if it’s not quite up to scratch.
What’s the harm in having some fun? It’s just a little music, right?
It’s just a little music, right? And it is — but it just won’t seem to stop. The first few hours may have been entertaining, at least for those who did not get woken up by the sound of decades (centuries, even) in the past, but the music keeps going long past the point of entertainment.
After two hours, the songs start repeating. After six hours, they’re still playing. After twelve? Still playing. Twenty-four? Still playing.
Sleep becomes all but impossible as the music keeps playing loudly in every room and every corridor of the station. Attempts to shut it down prove unsuccessful.
Forty-eight hours later, the music is still playing.
Characters will begin to suffer the effects of sleep deprivation, in addition to the general irritation that might come from hearing the same two hours worth of cheesy pop songs on a loop: headaches, exhaustion, tremors, irritability and confusion to begin with, followed by lapses in memory, muscle aches, malaise, violent behaviour, hallucinations or mania as cognitive effects set in, possibly also seizures and depression.
And still, the music keeps playing.
The music and the sleep deprivation it causes are the reason for many of the symptoms people are feeling, but something is happening that goes even beyond the music, beyond the lack of sleep: something has changed about the food replicators.
The food is slowly getting better, for one, thanks to a group of individuals who’ve been working on improving them. Beyond that, however, imperceptible, the composition of the food comes with something extra -- namely heightened emotions. Whatever causes it, it’s in the water, too.
Those who are already angry feel angrier and have a harder time controlling that anger. Those who are already sad feel sadder and have a harder time not bursting into tears. Those who are already apathetic feel more apathetic and have a harder time prompting themselves to so much as move. The effect holds for all emotions, heightening them, making them harder to control or counteract. Impulses become action far more quickly than usual. Irritation at the music may become anger at the person singing along under their breath and that, in turn, may lead to someone getting stabbed with a plastic fork.
It’s nearly impossible to keep a cool head, though some people seem more affected than others.
OOC: This part of the plot is completely opt-in. Whatever characters are feeling will be heightened and strengthened and their impulse control lowered. Make sure to get ooc permission for any stabby action of comparable deeds, and keep in mind that non-con is prohibited in game.
After 168 hours, the music stops. Whatever was in the water and the food is gone again, meaning characters may never know it was there in the first place. After all, some of the effects of it could have been down to the sleep deprivation as well…
Still, there’s something off about the whole thing. It might seem like someone is watching them. Toying with them. But surely that’s just paranoia, right?
In the aftermath of sleep deprivation and poor impulse control, characters might want to get some sleep or try to mend those relationships that were damaged by careless words or people getting creative with the cutlery.
Please remember to put warnings in subject lines if so required.

no subject
His eyes narrow. What's a few brain cells between friends? And no one's here to tell him how bad of an idea it is.]
Do it. Knock me out cold.
no subject
[And just like that, A2 aims, calibrates just how much force to use so she doesn't, you know, fucking murder him, and smacks him.
Right in the back of the neck.
Or she would, but unfortunately her hand has stopped mere milimeters away from it, and A2 makes a face.]
What the hell?
[She tries again, and the same thing happens???]
no subject
He opens one eye and then turns slightly to see what the hell was going on.
You've got to be kidding.]
The hell!? You're one of those androids who can't hurt humans, aren't ya.
[HE WAS SO CLOSE TO BEING HAPPY.]
wtf i thought i replied to this!!!
So she does it again. And stops again. And again. And again.
A2 lets out an absolutely livid yell.]
What the hell!?
its ok i love you and you are perfect
Can't you... like.
Throw a chair or something? And I might just accidentally walk into the path of it and... y'know.
!!!!
Just. Hang on a second, give me a moment.
[A2 has to actually sit down for this, because if she doesn't she might just fall over!!]
I'm gonna rip that stupid piece of coding out.
[She says, like it's no big deal. But also like, it's not? It does take a few seconds where A2 is corpse still as she roots through her own systems to find this awful bit of code!]
no subject
But it's a delayed reaction of sorts when he actually realizes what she's trying to do. Destroy a part of herself, and he's relatively terrified of asking anyone to do that for him.]
Huh? A2? Wait, what're you doin'?
Stop.
Don't do that shit.
It's a bad idea. A2!!!
no subject
Too late. It's gone.
[:)]
no subject
Did he just cause something irreversible? He didn't want anyone to change. Why couldn't things just be the same?
Well, in that case.]
Aight, give me a love tap for good luck.
no subject
[Love tap...
A2 lines her strike up and-
Smacks him hard, right in the back of his neck with enough force to make him pass out.
GOODNIGHT, RYUJI.]
no subject
Ryuji hits the floor like a paper weight, feeling only the intense pounding of the initial thrust against his neck sharp and hot all at the same time, until... there's nothing.
Thank god there's nothing.
It won't last incredibly long, but it's something, and he owes A2 a lot for beating the shit out of him. What a weird debt to owe.]
no subject
She'll even tuck him in. Ur welcome, ryooj.]
