WEEK ZERO: MINGLE


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!

[She curtsies in response automatically, but her eyes are wide.]

Um... my name is Ange. It is a pleasure to meet you as well.

Are you... nobility of some sort? [VON RIEGAN??]

(Interesting reaction,)

That's right. Judging from your reaction though, I'd say you aren't actually familiar with who I am though.

(Which he's grown used to by now.)
lecarre: (Reality check.)

[personal profile] lecarre 2020-09-30 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
That... I am sorry, sir, but I do not.

I apologize for my rudeness...!

Hey, don't worry about it.

(He waves a hand in the air,)

Between you and me, it's nice being on the same level as everyone else. No one can use their title to put anyone down. And without preconceived ideas, we're able to be anyone we want to be here.

[She looks...tentatively hopeful, but also a little doubtful.]

... Forgive me for saying so, but you must be a rather odd noble.

[A beat.

She covers her mouth with both hands.]

Hahaha!

(He lets out a laugh, bright and cheerful,)

No offense taken. I'm often told I'm not like the other nobles. I take it as a compliment. Thank you.
lecarre: (thoroughly tough thought though.)

[personal profile] lecarre 2020-09-30 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
Definitely odd... but I am very grateful for that.

Generally, I do not believe any noble would speak to the likes of me, so...

I am glad we are able to get to know each other like this!

[personal profile] riegan 2020-09-30 02:50 am (UTC)(link)
Is that so...?

(Oh, he frowns just a little bit at that. Why would she possibly say something like that? As pushy as he can be, he has better tact than harassing someone about this first thing in the morning and before breakfast at that! So he'll let it go for now, instead, tucking it away to poke at later,)

Well, it's their loss. (Stepping to the side,) If anything, I'd like to get to know you more. After all, we'll be spending some time here together.

[Sometimes you're just a victorian orphan used to a strict caste system, Claude... this is very astonishing to her, but she seems very pleased by his words.]

That is true! I would certainly be happy to get to know you better-- ah. Um. What should I call you...?

[She doesn't know what level of nobility he is, she doesn't know what term of address to use...!]
riegan: (pic#14337802)

[personal profile] riegan 2020-09-30 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
How about... just "Claude?" We've already established titles don't mean anything here.

(Hmm what is his title...)

And how would you like to be called?
lecarre: (be late for school.)

[personal profile] lecarre 2020-09-30 04:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Um... [IT'S NOT APPROPRIATE BUT...] If that is what you'd prefer, then... Mister Claude?

[She's Trying.]

Oh, but my name is Ange. You can call me whatever you'd like. It truly is a pleasure to meet you, Mister Claude.
riegan: (pic#14314373)

[personal profile] riegan 2020-09-30 05:08 pm (UTC)(link)
As long as it isn't "Mister Riegan," I'll take it.

(Mister Riegan is his grandfather. But maybe they'll eventually work their way to just "Claude." He'd like that.)

The pleasure is all mine, Ange.

(And he's just gonna. Wink.)
lecarre: (who's living perception now?)

[personal profile] lecarre 2020-09-30 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[... WINK??

She looks flustered, blushing a little as she ducks her head.]


R-right, um...!

Thank you for organizing this. It sounds like it will be a lot of fun.
