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!

... I don't understand a single thing you said.

[reconnective]

Oh, right. Not every world has magic. [he really needs to remember that.] Um...let's say that they made clothes that gave me more powers to help other people. Does that make sense?

[favourable]

We have magic. You still just didn't make any sense.

[he nods.]

But that's easier to understand.

[reconnective]

[he can at least understand that and has enough sense to look a little embarrassed.]

Yeah. All of us had garments made for us to help on our journey with magic in them. I guess it's just normal now. [...but hm.] What kind of magic do you have in your world?

[favourable]

Some countries have mages. They're less common in mine, but in places like the kingdom of Graphite, they use magic for everything—even boiling water.

[reconnective]

They must be really good at it if they can use it just like that. [now he has to wonder if donald uses his magic for things that simple.] Are you a mage then? Or do you just know about 'em?
