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!

Not even stuff you've had here?

[that's sad ):]

Do you have anything you don't like? Like, if somebody gave it to you, you'd spit it our right away?

[chanteuser]

... Hm. Well, out of the stuff I've had here...?

[ ... ]

It's a bit big-headed to put waffles isn't it? I made them...

[ aha. ] I don't know what I don't like either. I haven't really come across anything yet.

MY SMALL TAGS....

[heartablaze]

I don't think that's bad! If it's something you know, then it's something you can put down, right?

[but she feels sad, very empathetically, at hearing all this]

...You really don't remember anything about stuff you've eaten before, Alex-san?

[chanteuser]

[ hmmmmm.... well. for the sake of hikaru's experiment, she'll write down "waffles" next to her name. ]

No. Well... I remember things I've eaten recently, but I don't know if I feel strongly about them one way or the other. I haven't had something I didn't want to finish?

[heartablaze]

Hmm.

[hm hm hm hm

well either she just got incredibly offended by the word waffles or she has some sort of idea, because she gets straight up from her seat and starts jogging away]

Stay right there, Alex-san, I'll be right back!!

You can write other stuff you like if you want!!!

[chanteuser]

[ wow hikaru, her waffles were great? ]

Oh-- okay?

[ hikaru do you ever sit still? ... anyway. she'll just. keep writing for now, haha. she doesn't have a lot more to write, or anything especially exciting she could write so she just... writes names.

Emilio.

Worick.

Nicholas.

Nina.

Loretta.


... and then she doodles a little kitty cat with a bow on its neck underneath all the names. it's... passable. ]

[heartablaze]

[she had to sit still so much of last week please let her live

Anyway, she will be back with two cups of ice cream, one chocolate and one vanilla, which she drops purposefully onto whatever surface they are currently occupying which i have decided is just a table out in the inn lobby so we know where the fuck we are]

Here. Pick one! I brought spoons, don't worry.

[chanteuser]

[ hikaru off the string.... what will she do... ]

[ well there's icecream now. alex looks between the two cups for a moment, before picking up the vanilla one and a spoon. ]

Thank you?

[heartablaze]

[she will eat this ice cream on top of that totally not poisoned cookie, that's what she'll do.... she has simple needs and some of them are just Consuming Sugar]

You're welcome! Ice cream is my favorite, so I always like to share.

[she is very, sincerely content, even if there is something that feels kinda ???? lurking but it's fine]

If you don't like that flavor, you can try mine, okay?

[chanteuser]

[ does... hikaru want the vanilla? concern. ]

Alright, I'll give it a try.

[ she opens the lid and drags her spoon across the top of the ice cream so she can try it.





why does she feel like this is some sort of exam and she's going to pass or fail at the end? ]

[heartablaze]

[She has a cookie stuffed in her mouth as she peeks at Alex's list, so i mean, you ain't being watched]

[chanteuser]

[ well.

okay?

she'll eat the ice cream.





it's definitely cold and tastes of vanilla. great hustle. ]

[heartablaze]

[alex your opinions i'm crying

she'll point out the cat doodle with her pen]

Is the kitty someone special, Alex-san?

[chanteuser]

[ she looks up, spoon in her mouth. ]

Hm?

[ hang on let her remove the eating utensil. ] Oh. Not really. It was a lost cat I had to find for a job.

It took me ages to find her.
