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!

Something to look forward to, I guess.

[He's going to start unwrapping these waffles, taking one in hand as he hands it over to Alex. No fork and knife, we eat like uncivilized college students.]

Here you go.

[chanteuser]

[ she takes it, and breaks a piece off to pop in her mouth. ]

I'm glad me having a kitchen meltdown is something to look forward to. [ :| ]

[robopriest]

Hey, I wasn't talking about that specifically, just more about the chopped fruit being available...but I get your point. You need to take care of yourself. Kitchen meltdowns are totally not the way to go.

[Taking a bite straight from the waffle. Mmm. Waffles.]

It's good. [He nods over at Alex.] Thanks for the late breakfast.

[chanteuser]

There are worse ways to have a meltdown.

[ she tears off another piece, eating to distract from any sort of expression she may or may not be making. she takes her time with eating it, but when she's done she nods: ]

You're welcome.

Wait, you didn't eat anything before you starting doing--- how many push-ups?

[robopriest]

[He shrugs.]

I just didn't get around to it. And I don't know. I usually don't keep track of those things. Probably a couple hundred.

[hansa,]

[chanteuser]

[ ... ]

A couple of hundred.

[ welp, she's not here to nag about terrible eating habits before a workout. ] Maybe have two of those then.
