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!

[mob...sora notices that he's by himself which means there's little to no warning before he approaches with a wave.]

It's nice, isn't it? Everybody did a good job pulling this off.

[exercisms]

[He smiles when he sees Sora, and nods.]

It's nice. I haven't been to something like this for a long time.

[reconnective]

It's been a while for me, too. The last time I saw something like this it was a festival in a different kingdom. [that was fun.] The good thing is that there's a lot of people here. That makes it way easier to get to know them better, and people don't have to be by themselves all the time.

[exercisms]

It's a lot of people in here.

[It makes him a little nervous???]

[reconnective]

Yeah, but they're all here for the same reason you are. Everybody who came tonight wants to meet each other and have fun. [sora has never had a shy bone in his body.]

You don't have to talk to all of them all at once either.

[exercisms]

[Nodding. He is extremely shy, but he doesn't tend to be intimidated by people once he's met them outside of large groups, and he has met most of these people.]

Uh-huh. I'm glad I got invited to this. I've gotten to talk to a lot of people.

[reconnective]

I'm glad. [and he is? he's very happy for him.] There's still a lot of them I don't know well, but I hope that changes. Hearing about everyone's worlds and the things they can do...it's kind of cool to see what we all have in common and what's different.

[exercisms]

[Nodding! Just telling Sora talk and seemingly enjoying that?]

Everyone's from interesting places.

[reconnective]

What's the most interesting one you've heard of so far? [maybe mob has a story he wants to share.]

[exercisms]

There was a girl who walked across the country.

[It's not very interesting when you tell it like that.]

[reconnective]

[me: is this yona.]

Oh yeah? Where was she going? [mob is trying and he will support it.]
