My Apartment Manager is not a Planning Thread, #14
RE: My Apartment Manager is not a Planning Thread, #14
Eventually, we're going to get past the retcon stuff and into new material... including the obligatory beach episode.

Looking forward to that point, and gathering up a few loose comments, I've created a wiki page for another residence.

Quote:Bankrupt and abandoned since 2001 when Funtom Property Management bought the complex, the Kaluakoi Hotel has become a place where displacees can relax without needing to worry about blowing their cover -- whatever cover they might be maintaining.

It has its own displacees, who have moved from both their home reality and their home island of Kauai. But Molokai isn't that different from Kauai, although the resort is so remote (Kaluakoi is 20 miles from the closest town) that most tourists never go near the place.

Be warned: the only reason why the resort is inhabitable at all in early 2017 is because of the alien technology used to get the main building and a few outbuildings back into shape, and to provide amenities to the guests. If you aren't used to working with somebody like Washuu-chan, don't touch anything that you don't understand. But if you are accustomed to the weirdness involved with being or working with displacees, this is the perfect place for an Obligatory Beach Episode.

The complex manager is TO BE DETERMINED. They were hired by Funtom from the local population for their knowledge of local conditions and building reconstruction and maintenance.

Local Opponents:
  • Occasional dedicated investigative reporters (such as Minkao Jinguuji or Carl Kolchak) looking for a story so they can write off their trip as a business expense

Which means the resort needs a manager. I've already picked an advisory board member from among the displacees.

The resort also needs a tutelary. I'm reluctant to pick one from Hawaiian religion because some people still practice it... so there's that whole "cultural appropriation" issue there. Besides, there aren't a lot of "deities of going on vacation" out there. Smile

So far, the hotel complex has one person staffing the hotel's front desk and the convenience store... so the folks from RWBY will feel right at home. Except that the person isn't a crotchety old man who just grunts, she's an attractive young woman who's too busy to make small talk.

EDIT: Oh, and there's something in a footnote in the list of displacees that I want opinions on before I make it official.
