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!

From what Wolf told me, it seems as though the Realm isn't able to support our... varied abilities at the moment, so it simply disabled all of them.

[she very clearly shares the sentiment that it is a complete shame—but her face smooths out at the hot choc compliment.]

Thank you. I'll have to keep up my practice, then.

I guess that makes sense. Its just too much work for it to handle.

[Terrible, really. They'd probably be out of here in no time, with all their abilities.]

Please do. It offers something warm in these chaotic times.

Not too chaotic, I'm hoping.

What do you think, so far?
