Sweet Mayhem's Diary (WCB R2)
[ In Mayhem's desk is a spiral-bound notebook where she's been keeping a record of events! And her actual feelings on them. Welcome to my combination thread tracker/CR Chart/deadletters/everything else post, everyone! ]
WEEK 1
SUNDAY
Well, today was the weirdest day of my life! And probably the worst, too, but DEFINITELY the weirdest. I woke up as a... well, a Bianca, I guess, but I guess the usual word is a human? Turns out there are a whole bunch of them! I have these awful gross things called "fingers," and my legs move a lot more so I can't hop around like I'm used to, and oh yeah they want me to KILL PEOPLE! I don't want to kill people!! I don't think anyone I've met here wants to kill people, except maybe that Astronema girl? But I'll get to her later.
I'm going to have to pretend to be cool and mysterious here, just like I was going to with the Apocalypseburgers. Especially if there's murder happening, I need people to take me seriously, double if I want to try to stop it from happening. If I take my helmet off or let people know who I actually am, It would probably be pretty Bad News Bears, you know? I'm going to try to keep the peace as General Mayhem as much as I can, maybe make a buddy system or something to keep people from being alone? If things look murdery, anyway. Time to use all that conflict resolution training!
Anyway, the first person I met was my new roommate, Jasper! I don't know why I have a boy for a roommate, but nothing about this place makes sense anyway. I get kind of a weird vibe from him? But whoever runs this place did something to him, too, so at least he's someone who understands the whole "new body" thing. Room E4: We're doing our best! (Attached: A little doodle of Mayhem and Jasper, looking suspiciously like LEGOs, with their arms raised and a little dialogue bubble that says "We Can Do It!!")
Then I went out to the common room with all the little crabs (Attached: A doodle of all the hermit crabs, which she has taken the liberty of naming) and looked through the weird device they gave us to see who else is here. There's a lot of people, from a lot of different places! I don't think anyone knows each other? Anyway, while I was out there I met Yuri and Shiki! Yuri's a little weird, but he does have nice hair and he seems nice enough! It sounds like he's had a rough life, if his bio on the tablets is right. I just don't know what a "prostitute" is, but the rest of it sounds rough. (A note with an arrow has been added to the margin of the page leading here: "Looked it up! Still probably rough. Oh boy. :(") Shiki seems really nice! I like her style AND her spirit! Hopefully we can be friends, even though I have to act all cool and tough?
Then I went out into the hallways and I met a whole bunch of people! First up was Luca, who I guess has amnesia? This is a pretty bad place to lose your memories in, I feel sorry for the guy. But at least he doesn't seem too upset about it? Mostly just confused, but I think I would be too.
After Luca, I met Saul, or Jimmy? I should ask which one he wants me to call him... anyway, he's a lawyer! Probably from somewhere where the law works a little different from how it does back in the Systar System - they don't all have the Queen to keep the prisons empty and people happy, after all! Because of that I don't really get what him suing the people in charge is going to do, but hopefully it would mean he can stop this whole crazy thing, and I'd be all about that! (Attached: a doodle of Saul pointing in a dramatic and court-like way at Hu.B.E.R.T. and yelling "I'M SUING YOU" and Hu.B.E.R.T. throwing his hands up and yelling "NOOOOOOOOooooooo....")
Then I met Surolam, who I don't know a lot about, but she seems nice! Said something about Pokemon?
After that, I met Michael! He's immortal? Which is kind of weird, considering those Rules we have here, but none of this makes sense anyway, so it's fine. I had to lie to him a little, which I feel really bad about, but he seems nice! Honestly, if he doesn't turn out to be a huge grumbledumpus or anything, I might actually talk to him about what I am and what happened to me here. I think he would get it, and I feel bad about saying the stuff I did about Systar System technology after it got him so excited.
I met Tamaki for... well, not a long time, but we met! He seems nervous, which is a big mood. Poor guy, at least I have training on my side...
And then there's Astronema. Okay, so if anyone else here also used to be a toy? It's her. I hope, anyway. She didn't go into a lot of detail, but whoever those people are who are looking for her sound like bad news. She sounds like bad news, too, but... I have to believe there's some goodness in her. I have to believe there's goodness in everyone here. I think I might go crazy otherwise. I'll try to be friends with her, see if that helps. Maybe she's just lonely! No one with hair like that could be pure evil, right?
Then we all got together and met Hu.B.E.R.T., our new counselor! He sure is something, isn't he? I talked to him a little, to try to get a sense of what his deal is, and he didn't say a whole lot that's useful, but he DID say I can come in and talk to him privately later. I think today isn't the right day, but maybe tomorrow I'll ask him about how I ended up here. He's a little dramatic, but honestly I can respect that. It's a good way to get people's attention. He doesn't want us to know who he works for/who made him, and he's probably programmed not to say even if he wants to, and he seems to think this whole thing is some kind of experiment? So I guess we just have to show no one's going to KILL anyone just to get out of this stupid place and we'll be fine! Everything is... totally awesome. Totally.
Love you!

MONDAY
Hello again! I didn't do a whole lot today, mostly I just got the lay of the land and tried to look extra intimidating while I did it (exhausting!!), but I'm getting better at this whole walking thing! You're really good practice for the whole "fingers" situation, but at least I understand how hands work, you know? I can still hold things like I'm used to, there's just room to do other things with them. No idea what those other things are, though.
Anyway, I did finally take some time to go pay Hu.B.E.R.T. a visit in his office! I asked him how I'm a human now and he said it's just something the people who made him can do. I'm not sure I buy it, but I don't really have a choice at this point! Either way, I'm human and I have to figure that out for myself really quick here.
Maybe tomorrow or Wednesday I'll check out the "libarby," or see if someone can let me into the computer lab. It's not like we seem to have much we can do here for now.
Love you!

TUESDAY
I didn't get around to doing much of anything other than practicing human stuff today. I've totally got this walking thing down! Well, mostly totally, I still trip sometimes, but thankfully my training is really coming in handy to make this process go smoothly! Thanks, body awareness karate lessons from Sensei Squirrel! Hi-ya! (Attached: a doodle of a perfectly normal-sized LEGO squirrel leading a stereotypical karate lesson where Mayhem is standing under some kind of glitter waterfall?)
Tomorrow I'm going to figure out this whole human thing some more, though! There are a bunch of books in the libarby about biology, so I'm going to go through some of those. Maybe I'll pick out a couple books for fun, too, while I'm at it! Who knows?
This place is still scary, but I think I'm doing alright so far. No one has guessed I'm not as cool and kick-butt all the time as I say, anyway. At least I hope not...
Love you!

WEDNESDAY
Big day of talking to people! Lots to report. Oh boy, I did a lot of stuff today.
First off, something happened to the kitchen? Anyway, we had a bunch of cute little mice running around all day and they gave us a little station to make our own food. No idea what happened, maybe I'll ask Hu.B.E.R.T. at some point if no one else does?
Anyway, first things first I talked to my roomie and we tried to figure out what that weird bus game in our common room is about. Either it's the most misguided game in the world or it's training for actual bus drivers - I sure don't know! He didn't either, to be fair. I wish I could try to help him be a little less grumpy without blowing my cover... he seems like he could use a friend.
Then I spent some time in the libarby, brushing up on my human knowledge! I learned about how the body works, I saw a lot of pictures I can't un-see, and now I think I know how to take care of this thing until I can get back to being a toy! Being a god is stressful, and really gross, too. Too many fluids!
While I was there, I had another nice little talk with Surolam, who was super helpful! I also met Zabimaru, who used to not have organs just like me, and Koutarou, who is definitely used to being a human and asked me some questions about myself. At least they were easy to answer! I've spent a lot of time now figuring out how my fake old totally biological body worked. I guess I was sort of like a crab! (Attached: A doodle of LEGO Mayhem with big crab claws and legs, the latter of which have been scratched out with "TOO WEIRD" written next to them)
I talked to Ivar for a little while! He was... yelling at a washing machine? (A doodle of Ivar, cartoon angry, yelling at a washing machine with a sad face and a tear in its eye.) I think I got him to calm down a little, though! Sorry, washing machine!
I talked to Rokurou about the food, since I guess the kitchen wasn't working today? We talked about crabs - maybe we're near the ocean! I'd try to ask Hu.B.E.R.T. about it, but I don't think I'd get much of an answer.
Astronema caught me trying to grab some food in the dining machine to take somewhere so I can eat it alone. Why is she so mean?? We're both from space! But if she's like this I can't try to be her friend, she'll see through it if I act like myself around her at all ever! Maybe if we're here long enough she'll relax? I hope so :(
Woof, that really was a lot! Otherwise, I'm... getting used to being human, but I'm really worried about Bianca. If she is just a human, then she must be missing me by now. It's so weird to think I'm a toy, but I guess it's not the same when you do exist in your own dimension? I wish I could talk to someone about this - not that you don't count, of course, diary! But still, someone who can talk back would be nice.
Love you!

THURSDAY
I started trying to find some books to read for fun in the Libarby today! I'm getting really tired of reading about human stuff, so I'm going to focus on stories for a while! Didn't do a whole lot else worth mentioning today, anyway.
I ran into Colette while I was looking, though! We talked about all the cat and dog people down in The Forge under the capital. They are pretty cute, aren't they?
Love you!
