[ it's saturday afternoon and todomatsu is in his pink hoodie and jeans, and i will throw them outside the church because that seems like your jam and it's like, the second least creepy building here.

he immediately flips on the charm switch when that pretty long hair enters his line of vision, but then realizes it's just that guy from the haunted house and not a gorgeous girl. ugh.

well he already smiled at him and started to wave, so he guesses he's committing to this. :\ ]

I guess they decided not to go with the cult thing after all.

[UNFORTUNATELY THE CHURCH IS EXACTLY THE JAM OF THE HOUR. Lucas, now dressed in simple black pants and a frilly white shirt, looks like he belongs here, and approaches the building with the sort of comfortable air of someone used to taking refuge on pews.

Totty being trapped in having to be polite is so funny HELP. Lucas, none the wiser, just smiles back and offers a polite little nod in greeting. Then, in a lightly teasing way:]

Are you certain? The - what were they calling it... demonic sigil? The symbol around the fire is still there. Giving us our clothing back could very well be a ploy to get us to drop our guards, don't you think?

Okay, decided not to go with that particular cult thing.

[ because yeah, between the pentagram and the fucking blood ritual to get to their clothes, shit's still shady as hell.

shakes his head. ]

Seriously, though, what are they wanting us to do here? You'd think they could have thrown some kind of explanation letter in with those boxes if they were already going to the trouble of sending them to us.

Many people seem to be under the impression that they're making these choices on purpose, with the rough goal of either a cult ritual or something related to the horror movies you've mentioned. What do you think...?

[Are they going to be ritualistically sacrificed or become the next big Hollywood hit?? Maybe both, damn.]

I'm still leaning more toward the horror movie thing, but they sure haven't given us a lot to go off of plot-wise.

I'd have to defer to those of you who know more about what a movie is, in that case... Though I can't say I know a great deal of the occult, either.

[AND THEN IT WAS A CULT.]
