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!

[ she is always like this, sorry buck- I mean mysterious assassin with a redacted name u_u ]

... What? Does the sound not carry over if one of us says it aloud, either?

[frostythehitman]

Nah, I can hear it just fine, [ even if he doesn't remember it afterwards-- ] it just doesn't sound like my name.

[horologia]

... Hm. So it also erased... the connection between you and the... concept of your name actually being your name, I suppose?

[ it's not worded super great, but she's half thinking out loud. ]

Oh, but I guess that means that writing our thoughts down so we can remember them ... won't really work, if there's that disconnect. Or having other people remind us...

Did you have any nicknames before this?

[frostythehitman]

If I did, I don't remember them either. Only thing I've got now is "the Winter Soldier," but that's not really a name, just a title.
