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!

[reconnective]

Yeah. [whether fox wants to or not.] You're here to help us and we're helping you, right? That makes us friends.

[retellers]

Well, I guess I can't say no to that.

[reconnective]

Good. [yaaay. he'll wait for them to finish the tea now that his plate of cookies is arranged in case they want to go somewhere besides the kitchen.] It'd be nice to get to know each other a little better than right? Even without your memories, I want to know more about you.

[retellers]

[ it doesn't take much longer to finish brewing! ]

Haha... I'm not sure how much there is to know about me, at this point!

[reconnective]

Well...even if you don't remember much about who you used to be, there has to be something. You like tea, don't you? What other kinds of things do you like?

[he will help and see if there are cups set out. if not he'll grab those, too.]

[retellers]

Food and drink-wise, or...?

[reconnective]

We can talk about that if you want, sure. But I was thinking like...Rabbit seems to like animals. Do you have stuff like that that you like?

[retellers]

Hm... it's hard to say, since there isn't much around here to begin with. I like listening to music, I suppose... although there might not be many people who'd say otherwise about themselves.

[reconnective]

Maybe if we ask the Realm it'll be nice and give us some new stuff. [that's probably not how it works but it's worth a shot.] Even if that's someone everybody likes, there's a lot out there. What's your favorite kind of music?

[retellers]

Call me old-fashioned, but I like music from the 80s and 90s. Well, if that means anything to you.

[reconnective]

Not really. [when is kh set, we don't know.] But maybe the Realm can give us a radio or something and you can show me sometime.

[retellers]

We'll see! Keep an eye out for any MiniDiscs, then.

[reconnective]

You got it! [...] Um...what's a MiniDisc though?

[retellers]

[ they pause, before laughing sheepishly. ]

This may be difficult to describe. Do you know what discs are, in general?

[reconnective]

I think so. [he's digging in the recesses of his brain here.] Those are the round ones with stuff on them, right?

[retellers]

Got it! [ they make a bang motion with their hand. good job, sora. ] You can think of Minidiscs as pretty similar, if nearly the same in some ways.

[reconnective]

[yaaay thank you fox.] So they should be pretty easy to find if they're around. If I see any, I'll bring them to you and we can check them out. It'd be fun to see what you like.

...you don't know if that shop's going to get more stuff anytime soon, do you?

[retellers]

Not that I know of, I'm afraid!

[reconnective]

[a sigh.]

Guess I'll have to keep looking and come up with something better for next time. [stop trying to woo the npcs with gifts.]

[retellers]

Haha, that's sweet, but you really don't need to, you know!

[reconnective]

Yeah...but what if I want to? It's part of being friends. [fox doesnt deserve this.]

[retellers]

... Well, if you insist, it's not like I can stop you.

[reconnective]

Not really. [he agrees, no one can stop him. but if the tea's ready...] Let's go have a seat.

[and to save mods' sanity we can say they went to have tea and cookies and i'll gently harass y'all later.]
