WEEK ZERO: MINGLE

[retellers]

WEEK ZERO: MINGLE (43 remain) Rise and shine, gremlins. The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, and it's the start of a new week. Speaking of new, if participants turn on their PHS, they'll notice another section available. There's also an alert for a new message, titled TEAM ASSIGNMENT. Opening it will reveal which Leader they have been assigned to. Furthermore, at the corner of the PHS screen is an icon of an animal, depending on who their Leader is. It is visible only to them and no one else. That's not the only change, though. Participants may not notice at first—or perhaps they will?—but sooner or later, they may realize that they're... missing something? Strange. Three Leaders can be found around the area, open (?) to approach. If participants want to speak to them more privately, or to an absent Leader, it looks like they'll have to go through another channel. Which is to say, the Planetarium is now open! Finally, for the rest of the week, the participants will inexplicably have the urge to be physically affectionate. That person you just met days ago? Time to cuddle! This complete stranger you ran into? It sure is tempting to hold their hand. This urge can range anywhere from minor to impossible to ignore, depending on the situation. Enjoy your bonding!

[He's a man of few words, Alex. Accept it.]

They're here.

[Getting her a bowl. He looks proud of himself! He already knew where those were!]

[chanteuser]

[ he is doing!! the very best!!! ]

Great! Now...

[ she found a pan, so... they're only water and heat away from a double boiler. ]

There's the usual three kinds of chocolate chips over there. You can put however much you want in the bowl and then we'll get it melted. [ once she boils that kettle. she'll get on that now. ]

[exercisms]

[Okay. Sloppily pouring chocolate chips into the bowl.]

[chanteuser]

[ (kris jenner voice) you're doing amazing sweetie. once he's stopped pouring, she'll pop the bowl onto the pan of water. ]

You can grab some plates and choose the waffles you want, unless you want to be in charge of melting these down?

[ waffle gathering or primary chocolate melter. ]

[exercisms]

[Looking at the stove. . . ]

I'll choose the waffles. I don't know how to do that.

[Getting the plates. Putting an equal number of waffles on different plates.]

[chanteuser]

[ chocolate melting duty for alex then. it should take too long so she'll just... keep one eye on that and finish up fruit choppings while the chocolate melts down, pausing to mix it so it doesn't clump.

paul hollywood would be appalled at the lack of tempering but it's fine. ]
