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!

[Laugh, Sora, his suffering is always funny]

I've not tested it so far, so cannot say what the consequences would be.

[...]

But I'm assuming there must be some consequence, elsewise everyone would ignore it.

Depends if it's immediate or not. We don't know what happened to the people who broke last week's rule, do we?

[he has not seen shima yet. or laine.]

Ah yes, the memory rule.

[That gives him pause because uh, he hasn't seen anyone who broke that rule, either.]

Were there people who hadn't shared a memory?

Dunno. I know Cater and Kano both told me they weren't going to do it, but...[well they're both dead, so. hm. bad.]

[-- Yikes???]

I hope that is not the punishment for those who do not follow the rule.

I really hope not either. But maybe we shouldn't risk it? We don't know how serious their rules really are.

Yes, I will refrain from touching anyone this week.

[A pause]

Though given how prone this group is to injuries, I am... concerned.

You and me both. Alex and I were thinking it might be good to start teaching other people first aid. Even if we can't use it on each other, we could at least help ourselves.

[for instances like now.]

Ah, yes. I was discussing with Ochako the option of creating small baskets filled with some first aid supplies for everyone to carry with them, as well -- in case any more of us are suddenly whisked away to dangerous areas.

That's a good idea. The first aid station opened up, so we have supplies we can use instead of rationing anything we have and ripping up a bunch of shirts and pillowcases. Even if it won't fix everything it'll get people through until they can escape and get the attention they need.

Yes, exactly. I had initially planned to make baskets, but that likely won't be necessary if we use things from the shop -- or I at least assume there are bags in there.

[he goes in there during trials and that's it]
