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!

Is that so? Well, I suppose we'll just have to thank Lup for all of her hard work then. (Maybe the sibling rivalry angle will work? He doesn't know he's an only child.) I'm sure everyone will talk about whatever she does for days.

(Is it working?)

I can work with a favor, though.

(A favor is fine.)

Lup sure ain't working for free either, we're of a type on that one. Don't even try and play the "I went and asked mom" card with me, mister.

[Sort of working.]

Favor it is. But like, a favor worth several hours of time. Equivalency, you know?

I wouldn't be so sure. I've been told I can be rather charming.

(And it's usually been followed up with a, "So don't trust him for a minute!" but no one needs to hear that,)

Hmm... Time for time. (He nods,) Yes, I believe that's fair.
