HOUSEKEEPER.
HOUSEKEEPER
Today, when Harrowhark is in her bedroom, she will receive a message on her typewriter.
You didn't think you'd just get to laze around all day, did you? Get up. You've got a job to do.
Immediately after she finishes reading the message, she will feel compelled to walk into the elevator, inside which a shadowy elevator attendant appears as a guide. Once she arrives at the destination, she will find herself in a room.
It looks vaguely like a combination of office and supply closet, with shelves against one wall that have a variety of labeled boxes on them - "Cleaning Supplies," "Linens," "Poisons," "Uniforms," and so on. Normal stuff. Along the other wall, there is a desk with ink, a quill, some papers, and a few binders. Two chairs are in font of it, in case Harrowhark would like to take a seat.
Vulpecula is standing by the entrance, their arms crossed, and they give a little huff as she passes through the entryway.
"About time. Okay, let's make this quick, before anyone notices you're gone."
They procure a few pages that are bound together, then flip to the very last one and hold it out to her. It's labeled PARTICIPATION CONTRACT: ADDENDUM.
"Read this over and familiarize yourself with it. This isn't a negotiation, so you'll either sign it or you won't - but if you won't, you might not like what happens next."
RULES
1. Once a week, after at least one murder has been committed but before the discovery of the victim (or victims), you will perform housekeeping duties.
2. These duties will be performed in exchange for THE BODY's safety. If these duties are not performed, THE BODY shall be wiped from existence.
3. Prior to the murder(s), you will choose three (3) guests whose personal rooms you will visit. This choice will be communicated to Vulpecula, who will ensure that you are granted access to these rooms.
4. On Thursday night, you will be responsible for searching your three chosen rooms for any evidence that the occupant may have committed a murder. Any such evidence must be deposited in the housekeeper's cart in the Housekeeping Room.
5. You must select a minimum of one belonging from each room to put into the housekeeper's cart, whether evidence of a murder is found or not. You may select more than one item from each room if you wish.
6. Once you have made your selections, be sure to clean the rooms thoroughly, change out the linens, and make the beds. Be sure to include a mint on the pillow. Customer service is key!
7. You may encounter a "DO NOT DISTURB" sign on one or more doors in the course of your duties. If that is the case, you will not be able to enter, but will still be given credit for performing your duty in that room.
8. You are not to disclose that you are performing these duties. Discussing them with anyone other than authorized Hotel Staff will be considered breach of contract and will result in the destruction of THE BODY.

Sorry, Harrow, but that's bullshit. Name one person who has never told a single lie in one of these things. Just one! I'll wait.

pastebin decided something about these room descriptions was offensive so i'm putting them here ig!!
Behold this fucking thing I spent like half a day shoving into a penguin's room in Animal Crossing
General:
• Navy blue walls with gold accents and glow in the dark gold star stickers
• Subtle skull pattern carpet
• Star rug
• Miscellaneous decorations on shelves and things - scales, vase of white chrysanthemums, fake books, miniature model musical instruments
One side of room:
• Black loft bed (with blue star-print duvet) + desk combo, with red office chair
• Black armoire, full length mirror, and some shelves with a record player that only plays tango music.
• Red hanging ceiling lamp and red lava lamp
• Small black table + chairs with a chess set (if an actual chess set isn't allowed then one that's just decorative with the pieces cemented in place on the board is fine lmao he doesn't know how to play it anyway)
• Steel Samurai wall clock
Other side:
• Sort of a mini-courtroom with stands for the prosecution and defense facing each other, with another desk for the judge
• Two holographic flame machines on either side of the judge's desk that can be turned on and off depending on how hardcore he wants the court to look at any given moment
• Fancy red curtain framing some trophy cases full of metallic-painted plastic bullshit awards

JASON'S ROOM:
He is stealing HC and Diluc’s red and black color scheme. Biker-looking edgelord shit. An iron-framed queen bed because he’s a dorito who can’t fit in anything else, with dark-colored sheets. An industrial dresser probably because of the [mumbles in weaponry and gagdets] even though that isn’t necessarily in there. The desk is industrial too and probably can fold up against the wall somehow to make more room for [mumbles in idiot Bat martial arts and gym rat workouts]. Hidden drawers and stuff since he is a Bat. Is that allowed? He can hide food in there, I guess.
Essentially, the stupidest bachelor pad you can think of with masculine colors and probably stainless steel appliances. It’s actually extremely clean and organized? Not quite too techy since that’s Tim’s schtick. The Scarlet apartments from Chroma? He'd definitely have been in the Scarlet apartment, so like that. His actual apartment has a bunch of display cases for guns and weapons, so those (minus the weaponry). He actually enjoys reading, even high-brow reading, so books or bookshelves. Idk if he can have books in them, but if so, then it's all Earth worldly classics.
He grew up really poor; he doesn't have a lot of materialistic values despite having a lot of gadgets, weapons, and vehicles at home because he's a stupid Bat, so there isn't anything extravagant otherwise. He's a city boy also; anything related to city life sound and aesthetic wise. As a Bat, he works more often during all hours of the night, and he prefers it; maybe he has cool RGB backlighting and shit.
Oh. Also. I get to be Kelsey this game. He loves motorcycles and muscle sports cars. I guess here he gets some collectibles or posters of them. I AM PLAYING AN EDGELORD IF IT ISN’T OBVIOUS, I’M SORRY.
Here is a picture. | His room at Wayne Manor when he was a kid.

ESTELLE'S ROOM:
Inside is what looks like the interior of a fairytale cottage. The room is round in shape and looks almost as if it was built into a hollowed-out tree. The furniture is made of twisted, blossoming branches arranged in whimsical, asymmetrical shapes. Flowering vines drape down from hanging and mounted planters here and there.
Before them is a chair and a writing desk, as well as a cozy-looking nook with a round, cushioned bench surrounding a small table. There are bookshelves leading all the way up to the ceiling, filled with leatherbound books, though none have any legible titles. Through the windows, a lush grove with a great blossoming tree can be seen, with pink petals drifting along a gentle breeze.
A staircase that follows the curved walls upward leads to a loft, with pastel curtains drawn around it. It's probably where the bed is, but it's out of view.
Behind the pastel curtains is a cozy alcove with a soft canopy bed, topped with an abundance of pillows and surrounded with potted flowers and silky curtains. Also here is a wardrobe and a vanity with a circular mirror on top of it.

SEBASTIAN'S ROOM:
- his now dried-up flower bouquet (clematis, goldenrod, and osmanthus) still in a vase on top of the armoire
- his armoire door is closed!
- a rock with a bomb symbol on it
- video tape from w5 cyoa
- and after yesterday i guess he also has a bunch of photos with bidoofs in them, intentionally or otherwise
JASON'S ROOM:
- the bed is made neatly; everything is stupidly neat
- the closet door is closed
- the desk has a copy of Flowers in the Mirror, Classics of Poetry, and The Hobbit from the library on it
ESTELLE'S ROOM:
Estelle keeps her room fairly tidy, with nothing on the floor. Her bed is made and clothes are all kept in the wardrobe. There are a couple vases with seemingly real flowers on display. Miscellaneous items sit on her desk. Library books can be found on most surfaces; she has about a dozen in total, and they vary in genres and topics. Many are either storybooks, poetry books, or general nonfiction.
On top of the desk:
- a bouquet of flowers in a vase, slightly withered and some flowers have been removed (cedar flowers, bronze chrysanthemums, and closed gentians)
- a bouquet of fresh flowers in a vase (forget-me-nots, agrimony, ginger, poplar, and forsythia)
notepad & pen
- flask
- 2 polaroids (one of estelle & kazunari purikura, one of a big whale plushie)
- several library books
- The Book of Morbmon; it’s being used to press flowers (same flowers as are seen in the vases)
On the sitting area table:
- a bouquet of flowers in a vase (celandine, purple columbine, white clover)
- a few library books
On the bed:
- teddy bear (gift shop item)
- another library book
no subject
Anyway, she will take Sebastian's dried up flower bouquet, Estelle's Book of Morbmon and the pressed flowers inside, and Jason's copy of Flowers in the Mirror.

Noted! Thank you.
