I'm sorry about the delay, but I have some info now. It's sort of a lot to untangle and I'm not sure how helpful it all will be, but here goes!
[If Tomura thought the last text he sent was overly long, whoo boy.]
First, you should know I was only given three questions I could ask. One for each memory! I tried to get as much information out of her as I could, but she wasn't very forthcoming about certain things. Or she said it was only a guess, and she didn't know truly know the answer.
Anyway, for my first question, I asked if she ever got a better sense of what the resort takes from us and why some guests are considered more valuable. I said there was a theory going around that our intimacy is what powers the resort, but she said it's not just that. She said, "What the resort takes from us is our fate. There are those who are meant to play a greater role in life, and they offer more for the resort to sustain itself on." Then she asked me to consider the difference between an emperor who commands a powerful nation, and a servant who's destined to die young.
I couldn't really tell if she was saying the "emperor" is more valuable because he's fated to accomplish more in life, or what. But when I asked her to elaborate, she said her theory is that "playing the game changes our fate" by making us "have such an intimate encounter with someone we never would've met before coming here."
Next question! For my second question, I asked what happens to guests who don't provide enough energy, and if there's any truth to the rumor that the ones who don't sleep around much get turned to stone. She said "some people do indeed turn to stone." But then she said "whether it happens to every guest, I don't know" and "it didn't happen to me even after I lost my usefulness because of a deal I made."
Then for my third question, I asked why she was still here if the resort supposedly lets everyone go home once they've filled their so-called deck. She said that she did win her game, and that she could have used her wish to go home, but she used it to save her daughter's life instead. Her daughter was born with a heart defect. Apparently you only get one wish, and if you use it to save someone else you're just stuck here forever.
I told her I'd come back with double the memories if she let me ask three more questions, but she didn't seem interested, so that's it for now. Any thoughts on all this?
[ He'll deal with the length being for the sake of information this time... ]
the 2nd and 3rd points basically jive with what i've heard before. there are guests who've been here for a long time. i don't know about all of them, but she's the 2nd person i've heard of who's completed the game. the 1st one's j, who also insists that people can leave using their wish, but i'm pretty sure he spent his on something else. i don't know what the exact status of the petrification thing is for them, but maybe the length of their stay or the completion of their deck means they don't have to play anymore. or maybe it not mattering anymore has something to do with their fate.
but that 1st theory is a new one i haven't heard of before, so i also can't say for sure. if anything, i guess it shows that the house probably can't pick and choose who gets in, otherwise it'd be more efficient to spend its energy sucking up presidents and kings. [ Maybe even a younger Symbol of Peace or his own Sensei. ] but as far as i can tell, someone's value doesn't have much to do with how they're treated here. i don't think they're wining and dining their most "valuable" guests.
[ Which would totally include him, thank you... ]
but rather than who's valuable, i would wanna know why and how. does it count if they make us experience an intense emotion we otherwise wouldn't? or does it all hinge on us changing our fates by choosing to stay here?
not that i believe this concept of fate, but i guess i admit i'd be doing something else if i didn't have to be here.
I heard the same thing about J. I do think it's awfully convenient that everyone says they could've gone home if they wanted, but we don't know of anyone who actually *has* left. I guess if they had, we wouldn't still be seeing them around, but there's no proof yet.
She also didn't say whether she had proof her daughter was doing well - whether her daughter ever sent postcards, or if the House ever gave her proof she was still alive. I don't mean to assume the worst, but I want to consider all possibilities.
She said she thought she understood the House pretty well, though, for whatever that's worth.
If they can't pick and choose, I'm not sure how we're getting in. Not voluntarily, that's for sure!
And it seems to me they've done a pretty good job of collecting bigwigs. I've met 2 princes, 2 high-ranking government officials, a lord, an immortal ghost king, 2 idols, 2 other celebrities, some nobles, some powerful mages, and a god since coming here. That's not exactly what you'd call a normal sample of people, is it?
You're right about our treatment, though. Having high status in the real world doesn't mean you'll have high status here. I've met royals who were given low ranks.
Anyway, I'm not really sure what counts. I know my fate in the real world was forever changed by some of the people I met, but I wouldn't say the same thing's happened here. And just going to bed with someone certainly isn't "fate-changing." If anything, the way they've set up that game seems counterproductive, since the act would start to lose all intimacy thanks to repetition. Both parties don't even have to enjoy themselves, let alone share an emotional moment.
So, if you ask me, this whole place is set up rather poorly! Not that *that's* news.
there's virtually no way to know for sure. doesn't look like there's any way to leave and come back and leave again. there's no communication here with the outside, or if there is, no one's found out how to do it. but that's the only way we can have proof, isn't it? you'd also have to trust that the other person isn't lying to you or some made up projection. you'd get stuck with a million hypotheticals.
maybe if someone can 100% figure out the house's power, there'd be a way to engineer a confirmation. but even if what happens is they send check outs to the incinerator, i'd rather find out for myself than stick around here waiting for perfect proof.
you've met a lot of people, huh? sure you're not just chumming it up with the bigwigs?
[ maybe it's his own fault for assuming most people are Just Some Guys though. ]
the whole concept of this place is bullshit, but there's enough morons buying into it anyway to keep it running. there are already people who seem happy enough being here.
I do know someone who's used magic to dig into how things work around here. He's one of the other people I collected a memory from. He's figured some stuff out, but apparently it causes him head problems and makes his nose bleed whenever he uses it to investigate. Still, if anyone's going to crack the code 100%, my bet's on him!
Or on Loki, since he's a god and he can shapeshift!
And I did make that Magic Showcase post, so I guess that would explain why I've heard from a lot of powerful magic users. But I'm not purposefully seeking out bigwigs. Both times I ran into a prince, for example, it was a chance encounter.
True! I always assumed the long-term guests had been brainwashed. But some people come from rough backgrounds, or they come from a world that's been torn apart by war or other such things. Compared to the life they led before, this place must seem like a land of plenty. Which is exactly what the House wants us to think, of course.
But I'll never see things their way. We're in agreement about this place being bullshit!
[Now for a pause.]
I don't normally use language like that, just so you know. But I figure it's alright when the situation truly warrants it. Still, don't tell any of my fans, OK?
so that's an option, huh? it's not surprising that the house has defenses up, if it keeps dragging in these supposed powerful magic users and vips. did he find out anything useful?
it's just how people are. some of them will choose a comfortable cage if it benefits them. if they want to stay, they can.
[ Not that he doesn't understand it, somewhat. He's wondered, once or twice, whether there weren't people who would be better off here. Better off here than dead. ]
i don't think there's anyone here who would be bothered by you throwing little swear words around. at least try on an f bomb for size.
1. The resort is made of energy, both "positive and negative." He detected more negative energy last time he looked.
2. Some guests are basically ghosts, or "lost souls" as he called them. He said they're "a blend of living and nonliving," whatever that means. He can't tell what the staff are, but it seems they're not ordinary humans either. And the ones in the casino are sucking up people's energy, supposedly.
3. The thing that replenishes energy the most is sex. That goes for the resort's energy, as well as our energy.
4. Guests who had sex frequently had the most energy, and the ones who'd been intimate with the largest number of people left the "strongest impression." The ones who hadn't slept around as much had "weaker souls."
Which sounds absolutely preposterous, and I'm still not sure how he was able to sense these things without peeking into people's bedrooms, but there you go.
It's a lot for me to swallow. I'm not sure how much you got out of that either, since I forget whether or not your world has magic in it. Do phrases like "positive and negative energy" mean anything to you?
there's no magic in my world, so none of this stuff is really my area.
[ Irritatingly. ]
at most, i can see it jives with what the bar owner said, if encountering other people and fucking is a way to "change fate" or whatever. all of this just points to us being batteries for this place, doesn't it? we can conveniently recharge ourselves and it along with us.
i guess batteries need both positive and negative ends for energy to flow, but that's the only sense it makes to me. you should've had him elaborate.
What do you want him to elaborate on? I could still ask. Or better yet, you could ask, since I'd rather be a songbird than a carrier pigeon! But here are some more things he said, in case any of these are illuminating. I'll just copy & paste them!
"My opinion continued is that sex is vital, is key, but that this flow of energy may not be the only reason we are here. A method for battery, certainly, but a battery is not the main show of any technology, is it? The question "what does this flow of energy do for the House" is what interests me."
"Energy seems to be stolen most often on the casino floor, by those dealers. Energy is replaced by sex of any form, but those who have it more often and with more people seem more robust with it."
"In any case, the suits seem to be in constant conflict already, fluctuating by the day and hour. The last I checked, clubs had a lead of sorts, so those sort of incidents may just be culminations of collected energy from the struggles?"
By "those sort of incidents," he was talking about that business the other month where Clubs took over those few areas.
didn't you wanna know what "positive and negative energy" meant? better question to ask him than me.
the most obvious answer would be that "batteries power the resort," no? electricity isn't free and neither is running water or temperature control. from what i know, neither is magic. there are plenty of all those things here.
thanks for the info though. any more speculating probably won't be that useful, but i'll contact you if i learn anything new. obviously i'd prefer it if you could do the same.
Positive is positive, negative is negative! You know, like happiness particles versus sadness particles!
[(There is no such thing.)]
Honestly, despite being a genius-type, I'm afraid the explanation might not make much sense to me. My world just doesn't have magic. But very well, I'll ask!
And that's what I thought, but he seems to think there's something more to it than that. I guess there's always the question of why exactly they're powering the resort in the first place. It can't be money, since they aren't making any of that from us guests. And this place is way too fancy to just be a holding ground for ghosts and lost souls. It might help if we could figure that out somehow.
Not that I really care what this place is for as long as we can leave. But it *is* an unsolved mystery.
It'd also be nice to shut it down forever so no one else ever has to go through what we've gone through, but that might be asking for too much even with justice on our side.
And yep, sure thing! I'm happy to have what they call a business relationship 😊🤝😊 Talk to you next time I find something!
is there a reason he thinks there's more to it? maybe there is, but even animals will eat just to hunt the next day. wanting to preserve someone or something can be as simple as that, even if the thing they're preserving isn't even useful.
i agree as far as saying this place should be shut down though.
[ Even if "shut down" is probably nicer than what he has in mind!!! ]
Based on his experience with magic, I guess. I'm not too sure though. Once again, you'd have to ask him!
And that's true enough, I suppose. The resort is allegedly old, and old traditions die hard. Which means it might just be up to the younger generation to shake things up and carve the path to a shining future! ✨✨✨✨
The younger generation is us in this case! Though I'm not sure how old you are.
And I'm open to other options besides a peaceful shutdown. I'd just like to avoid an all-out war, is all. I don't want to be caught in the crossfire!
sure. tell me the contact of your sorcerer friend then.
[ Not that he guarantees he'll follow it up, necessarily, but it can't hurt to know?
Also: don't talk like that... But this time he refrains from picking a fight when Tomoe starts going off on all the shining light stuff. ]
i'm not as old as this place. not even close. [ Narrows it down a lot! 👍 ] it'll all depend on whether they're willing to shut down without a fight. places that kidnap you probably won't.
His full name's really long and hard to remember, but his username is Wildflower!
And good to know you're not an old man. I thought Edelstein was an old man based on her typing style, but it turned out I was wrong! I won't be making that mistake again.
And yep, it's unfortunate, but somebody will have to do something!
Or multiple somebodies. I do wonder what would happen if all the powerful magic users and such all banded together to fight their way out of here. You know, just as an example.
But cooperation is hard without a strong leader to rally the troops, and I'm no military general. I'm just an idol~✨
[ Oooh... That guy. He'll tuck that piece of information away just... for reference? Otherwise, not the first person he'd hit up to chat..! ]
that scenario is a fun little thought experiment, but the chances of winning are low if we can't rely on someone who's figured out the magic system in this place. who's to say they wouldn't just zap everyone with an uncontrollable urge to fuck.
[ Just sayin'... It seems like the resort's preferred way of dealing with things? ]
dunno. these guys don't really seem like they give a shit about "crime," but maybe they'd take it more seriously if people gave breaking out a shot and really busted up the place.
all i'm saying is if someone wants to mastermind a jailbreak we gotta have a lot more information than we do now.
True! Unlike you and your grandmother, they don't care about following the law here, since I can already think of 25 different things I'd like to sue them over!
I know others who can do magic, but I'm not sure who else has been using it to figure out how the place runs. So until we find another helper, I guess we'll have to keep relying on that same person I mentioned. I'll make sure to tell him that everyone's counting on him!
That's the funny thing. He said he didn't exactly care to. But he also said he likes practicing his magic and learning new things with it.
Which sounds like a lot of effort for little gain, if you ask me. But I guess it's sort of like being a detective. Some detectives have personal motivations, like "justice" or "revenge," while others simply love to solve a good mystery.
what's important is whether he'll be reliable, when it comes down to it. like i said, there are already people who want to stay. they'll be against it, if your plan is to shut this place down or deal a big blow to it.
Fine, maybe we don't have to blow up the whole place! We could just make it so that everyone who wants to leave can leave!
Though is there any rule saying you have to go home to your *own* world? If we shut the place down, perhaps those who don't have a good home to go back to can hitch a ride with someone who does! That's where all these "intimate connections" we've forged could come in handy.
I wouldn't mind letting people come back to my world. They could get jobs, rent apartments, buy my CDs and go to my concerts! Or hop on a plane and fly elsewhere! Whichever!
Yep, on second thought, getting rid of this place is just fine~

I'm sorry about the delay, but I have some info now. It's sort of a lot to untangle and I'm not sure how helpful it all will be, but here goes!

Which sounds like a lot of effort for little gain, if you ask me. But I guess it's sort of like being a detective. Some detectives have personal motivations, like "justice" or "revenge," while others simply love to solve a good mystery.

Though is there any rule saying you have to go home to your *own* world? If we shut the place down, perhaps those who don't have a good home to go back to can hitch a ride with someone who does! That's where all these "intimate connections" we've forged could come in handy.
I wouldn't mind letting people come back to my world. They could get jobs, rent apartments, buy my CDs and go to my concerts! Or hop on a plane and fly elsewhere! Whichever!
Yep, on second thought, getting rid of this place is just fine~
