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!

[ Kano comes in- not from down the stairs, but through the front door- and he looks surprised to see Claude out there guarding the way up. It's too early. Turn off your sunshine and go back to bed, Claude. ]

Huh? What? Good morning! No? Uh...

[ A feast... ]

Oh yikes, you're gonna have to tell me when the party is.

[ So he can avoid it. ]

[riegan]

(KANO WHERE DID YOU COME FROM... Claude considers himself an early riser and he definitely doesn't expect to be the earliest but he didn't think he'd catch someone just coming in???)

"Yikes?" My, I wouldn't have taken you for a shy flower.

(He was so ???? when they first met?)

[suddenlybees]

[ He came from... outside... Don't let this fool you, Kano is not an early riser, he is a 2PM riser and looks dead tired, in no way feeling up to being compared to any sort of flower. ]

Aw, but I'm super super shy? Forty people in a room? Wow! How scary~

[riegan]

Oh, I wouldn't worry so much. With so many people in the room, you'd think more people would be watching but actually, their attention is more divided.

(There's no need to be shy, Kano!!!)

[suddenlybees]

Hmm, it's not so much that, but, well...

[ So many people in a room, Claude ): ]

Ehh, doesn't matter anyways! More importantly, mister party planner, is the time. The time.

[ How long does he have to avoid this place, how long is he going to be stuck sitting on the stairs because he can't get out of the inn. ]

[riegan]

Well?

(Fine, keep your secrets... for now.)

It's a feast so it's only natural it would begin around meal time. Dinner, of course. (The best kind of feast. As for the ending time.) We'll just have to see.

(No, he has an end time in mind. Just... why would he say it in case anyone wanted to avoid it!!!)

[suddenlybees]

[ Social anxiety is not a secret, just look at this boy. ]

Heh... What time is dessert? Do they gotta wait until the end for dessert, or is it a free-for-all-whoever-gets-there-first?

[riegan]

Usually you get dessert at the end. (Usually, implying something else,) But then you run into the trouble of people only showing up for best part.

Personally, I prefer to have it whenever I want so people can come and go as they please from the get go. It's a feast, not another hostage situation.

(No point feeling like you need to stick around just for dessert at the end.)

[suddenlybees]

[ Kano is going to beeline for dessert, grab a cup of water from the kitchen, and then play bouncer on the stairs for the rest of the party. ]

Here's hoping it goes well~ Imagine if we used up all our food at the feast and starve to death in the next following days, wouldn't that be something?

[ How do we get imports with a barrier in the way!! Magic is fake, but he supposes there are bears in the forest and they could always eat grass. ]
