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.

Interesting. There's a much greater sense of flexibility compared to my world. I'm surprised not everyone picks up magic then.

[evocationary]

Think of all the people you know, and then think about how much patience they have, and then think about that again.

[ that's why more people don't. she also... frowns just a little. she swears she knew someone who never had the patience for magic, it's just... ]

[antaressnipe]

[Me at the brackets: Hey I don't like that.

Anyway he absolutely smiles at that, she's got a point]

Ah yes, you are correct. I suppose the fun and mystery of magic loses its appeal when there is hard work behind it.

[Though he does note the frown and gives her a thoughtful headtilt...?]

[evocationary]

[ haha it's probably fine ]

That's exactly it, the realization that you actually have to study instead of just swinging an axe? Nope.

[ the headtilt gets an eyebrow raise. ]

[antaressnipe]

I suppose I'm just biased in that I assume everyone is eager to learn.

[As for the headtilt, he just answers honestly]

You seemed as if something was on your mind.

[ a beat, then she pushes her hair back out of her face. ]

Uh - no. More like the opposite, I guess?
