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!

[ He can't tell if they're real without touching them ]

Is there nova under the rocks by the river?

[ He would do that instead of holding a feast??? what is he doing here when there's rocks to be flipped ]

[axecessory]

[ they're real, and fresh, picked straight from the forest grounds and neatly groomed into arrangements. ]

Um... maybe?

[ it's not like shy can deny the possibility, even if it's obviously a joke. ]

Don't take my word for it and go jumping into the river, though.

[suddenlybees]

Too late, that's gonna be after-party plans~

[ Mermaids deserve snacks too ]

[axecessory]

I can't tell if you're kidding.

[ but maybe he shouldn't be jumping into rivers in the dead of night. half-heartedly: ]

Try not to catch your death already, okay?

[suddenlybees]

[ very seriously: ] I am serious all the time.

[ Just ask anyone! or don't. ]

I'll do my best not to die, though~ You'll be the third to ask that of me, you know? Really, after I've already lived this long!

[axecessory]

You've found three opportunities to die already? It's only been a week.

[ she doesn't exactly know this guy, so she sounds more impressed than concerned. ]

Maybe you ought to take it easy. You know... pace yourself a little.

[ or maybe not die on her suggestion? she'd feel bad? ]

[suddenlybees]

Plenty of opportunities to die!

[ It's so easy to die, did you know ]

BUt yeah, yeah, I'll try to last at least another week~

[axecessory]

[ she's not keen on finding out. ]

Good. At least have some food before you go do anything irresponsible. Try dancing! Make a new friend, fall in love, all that stuff.

[ may as well enjoy the feast if he's here. ]

[ Kano just laughs ]

What a tall order! Who have you danced with, befriended, and fell in love with?
