WEEK ONE: MINGLE

[retellers]

WEEK ONE: MINGLE (40 remain) Rise and shine, gremlins. The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, and it's the start of a new week. To the participants, yesterday's events may seem distant now—albeit not as distant as their life before this. Whether or not they notice, they will have lost a memory upon waking up. The barrier to the north is down, and beyond the bridge lies new areas to explore. Strangely, what was there last week seems to have been replaced overnight. That's not the only thing that's different, either. The participants will find that their lodgings have changed. Finally, should anyone check their PHS, Hajime, Pikachu, and Virid's profiles have been removed. 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. Furthermore, it looks as though the rules have updated. Finally, this week, the participants will find themselves drawn to one person in particular. Whoever that is, they will find themselves compelled to be close to them physically. The longer they attempt to resist this, the more compelled they will be... and the closer they will want to be, to the point that it might be emotionally and physically draining to not be holding hands or hugging them for several hours because you've ignored them too long. That's fun.

Pretty sure it's all a bunch of rubbish or something! There's no way we're at the moon! We're probably in a pocket dimension or something that just looks like it.

[ Cause that makes more sense ]

[discernments]

[ Jeanne looks as if she's considering that seriously, as if that does make sense. She mutters something under her breath that may or may not sound like "reality marble," and then she shakes her head. ]

If it only looks like it, what is it truly? Is it just an empty space, then?

[pulsecannon]

It must be! Or it's still what was here the week before, but they used magic to trick us.

[discernments]

I don't want to go so far as saying they're tricking us.

[ She still wants to have faith. ]

Perhaps, it's because we were able to collect nova last week that this could appear or open up to us.

[pulsecannon]

So the Nova just powers up this place so it can redecorate? Seems like a waste of time collecting it then...

[discernments]

That's only a thought I just had. I haven't asked to confirm yet, but we're here to stabilize the Realm.

[ So it makes some sense? ]

[pulsecannon]

Yeah, I guess we are.

Hey, if it's linked to memories or whatever then maybe space is related to someone here?

[discernments]

[ Oh, that's something that didn't occur to her. ]

It's possible. I don't see why it couldn't be.

[pulsecannon]

It has to draw inspiration from some where. Maybe we should see if space means something to someone?

[ Were there astronauts or something in the group? Space cowboys? ]

[discernments]

It could be from our collective memory, too.

[ Well, less our and more others since Jeanne doesn't have many thoughts on space other than how it's awe inspiring and something she knows very little about. ]
