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!

Oooh, a cursed mount. I like it.

(He can work with that,)

It flies the skies, searching for a rider. Once found, the rider is unable to get off and becomes the Dread Rider of the Skies.

[ dread rider of the skies... now that sounds something right of a book and. well. nerdere unlocked? kind of. she'll be a little more animated when chiming in this time. ]

Oh, and as a Dread Rider of the Skies, they are unable to rest either. The only chance of knowing peace is once they're freed by an arrow to the heart.

[ a little cliché but should be fine, right? ]

But that only frees the rider.

[riegan]

By killing them? That's pretty dark.

(IZUMO...)

[sacredchants]

[ SHE'S AN EXORCIST. ]

Is it?

[riegan]

I guess I'm not really a fan of tragedies.

[sacredchants]

[ hm. okay. ]

Isn't it realistic, though?

[ she states plainly because, well, that's just how things are, right? it's not like everyone can be saved. ]

How would you have the story play out?
