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.

Oh, I was! I mean... it was alarming, that is for certain, but so much of it was brand new.

[now it's just kind of Bad though.]

I suppose... we must hold onto the light when we are able to do so, especially now.

[sacredchants]

[ frowns. everything is Bad. well, things still look like they may be good but ultimately they are Bad. ]

Hold onto the light?

[ that's...interesting phrasing. ]

[lecarre]

[She nods firmly.]

Right! Even if things are difficult... even if you are in absolute darkness, so long as you have a single source of light, you can still see your way.

Um... metaphorically too, I think.

[sacredchants]

[ huh. ]

That sounds too... [ what is the word she is looking for?? embarrassing? optimistic? ] I don't think I could be a person who could get away with saying that.

[ izumo knows what's she's about. ]

[lecarre]

Eh...?

[Ange blinks at that, clearly puzzled for a moment before it seemingly clicks.]

I... suppose it was pretty embarrassing, wasn't it...?

[sacredchants]

[ izumo isn't going to say anything else but tilt her head to a side.. ]

You must be pretty brave to say things like that.

[ or shameless??? ]

[lecarre]

[Aha...ha...]

Er, I'm not so sure about that...

It is just how I feel--is that so strange?
