WEEK TWO: MINGLE

[retellers]

WEEK TWO: MINGLE (37 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, and new buildings within the town have been unlocked. Finally, should anyone check their PHS, Cater, Sharon, and Kano'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. If you break the current ninth rule, participants will get shocked. It will be a mild shock at first, but the longer they touch each other, the stronger it will get. On that note, if your character did not share a memory last week, please make sure to check your notifs! Participants may also find that their memories of the past few weeks are getting fuzzier... as though they can't recall some of the details without focusing. Finally, this week, every time a participant gets within one foot of someone, they will experience the emotions the other person is currently feeling and vice-versa. This will last for ten seconds even after they've stepped out of their personal bubble, after which the sharing itself might share, but the knowledge will not. Have fun!

[why are pictures of gi-gan's outfit so hard to find ugh. anyway! yona's dressed like a pirate... from her own world. it's fine, probably. anyway, here she is on the deck of the howling rose, lingering near the railing, staring out at the water.]

...this takes me back.

[ah, memories. to whoever happens to be nearby -]

Have you ever been on a ship like this before?

two;

[anyway, here's yona at the edge of the swamp.]

...I know it's probably dangerous and I shouldn't go in there, but somehow, that only makes me want to go in more?

[welp.

at least she's got her bow and arrows with her!]

wildcard;

[you know the drill! hit me with anything, i'll roll with it. you can also grab me on discord or bloodthirstiest if you want to pc anything during the week!]

[lionson]

[He just. Looks at the swamp. Then at Yona.]

That's pretty normal, yeah. The key thing is to have impulse control.

[dawnblushed]

...I've never been very good at that.

[At least she can admit it?]

[lionson]

That's also not uncommon.

[He is very amused right now though.]

If you need someone else to be your impulse control today, then I'll say it: don't go in the swamp alone.

[dawnblushed]

[But she wants to. :c

She looks between him and the swamp, then nods.]

...okay. I won't go alone.

two

[dianxias]

...Well, that just means you shouldn't go alone, right?

[ you know who doesn't have impulse control, ]

[dawnblushed]

...you know what, that's true!

[oh dear,]

[dianxias]

Shall we explore together, then?


[ where are your babysitters ]

[dawnblushed]

[honestly she's about to agree, but then she remembers hua cheng's face after xie lian came back from his cyoa]

Aren't you still injured?

two

[exercisms]

In the swamp?

[Looking out there? Looking at Yona's bows and arrows. Hmm.]

[dawnblushed]

Mhm. I think I could handle it, don't you?

[Haha!]

[exercisms]

I'm sure you could, Yona-san!

[dawnblushed]

Thanks for the vote of confidence!

[frostythehitman]

...Huh.

You know what? I haven't.

[ this genuinely comes as kind of a surprise to him!! ]

[dawnblushed]

It's pretty neat, isn't it?

[they're on a boat! too bad they can't steal it and go sailing. maybe they can grab a smaller one.]

[frostythehitman]

I guess so.

I never thought about it until just now but I've never really been on a ship before. Not a proper one like this.

[arcsplainist]

[ Guess who's likewise coming to check out the view? This guy! ]

Aye, that I have. [ Sailed by actual pirates, even. ] A spot like this is far more familiar to me than the likes of... outer space.

[ That still is odd to say. ]

[dawnblushed]

Oh, me too!

[...maybe it's odd but. She doesn't know jack about space. But pirate ships? That, she can deal with.]

Were you a sailor, then?

[arcsplainist]

Oh, hardly. There are many where I am from, however, and these days I oft travel, at times taking me across the waters.

two

[misstrust]

I admire your spirit of adventure, but perhaps hold off on it for now.

[ And here's big sis. ]

[dawnblushed]

[gently looks at my other toplevel. laughs.]

...how come? The sooner we know what's in there, the better, right?

[misstrust]

Well, from the way you were talking, it sounded like your plan was to go it alone.

one!

[siblingless]

[A shake of her head as she saddles up next to her, peering over the railing.]

Not at all. This is an entirely new experience for me. [She shoots her a curious look.] Is it not the same for you, Yona-san?

[dawnblushed]

I've been on a ship like this before.

[Yona grins, watching the water.]

...it was really lively.

[siblingless]

Lively...? [Trying to picture a ship like this, but lively. Hm.] Would you like to tell me about it? Maybe I'm wrong, but it sounds like you had a good time.

[Since... she's grinning.]
