005 - ??? [EVENT]
Good Morning, Festering Guests~
The intercom wails, then falls silent in time to hear a swift pattering of small feet, the scraping of a chair or table, and high-pitched giggles in the background. Somebody taps the microphone before the voice of a young girl comes on.
- - -
It's been a long time, hasn't it? Way too long.
I'm soooo bored. Nobody's killed each other in awhile, no red's run down the walls, not even in the elevator shaft. Hee hee.... Big brother, you're the Host's little doggie, aren't you? You're too busy licking shoes and messes to spend time with me anymore. Is that fair? No, it's not. That's okay! I'll play with your guests, instead~
My Shed has lots of sharp, pointy garden tools, but it also has all sorts of seed packets. Don't you like flowers? I do, and these flowers are the best.
Just don't sniff too hard. The smell might go to your head.

The intercom gives one last, rather high-pitched wail before suddenly shutting down. No new file will be found on your laptop, for this is not an official announcement, and merely the NPC in question hacking into the intercom system.
And our resident, babyfaced poltergeist finally pays the Ravis Seur another visit, just as the hotel has become visible again. ♥
This time, she's not out for blood, guts, and chaos, since she learned the hard way that certain people running the hotel can keep her in check, if necessary. Instead, she's planted a variety of flowers and similar creepy crawly growing things that may drive people insane all over the town, but especially in various areas of the Hotel Ravis Seur. They tend to grow at an exponential rate, so you should be careful. If you're not, your room could be overrrun by the end of the week.

Again, the list is not exhaustive, so feel free to add whatever species and effects you like.

Here's a map of the current accessible areas outside of the hotel for your convenience (for OOC use) as well as a website with defined symbolic meanings for several kinds of flowers, to help you out in the case that you want to add your own flowers and effects.
Note: The length of the above-mentioned effects can vary for each character at their mun's discretion. Just go crazy with this and have fun~!
