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!

I'm almost surprised someone with such an unreliable crew managed to acquire this amount of treasure in the first place, but maybe it was a very long time spent at sea?

[ and the crew could just get progressively saltier over perceived inequality in treasure ]

[stillnot]

[ that's clem's theory. ]

They probably only turned on him once there was enough treasure to be worth it. That's how people are.

[horologia]

... Well, that's true too, I suppose... still, I never understood where they went from there. Since even if they tossed the captain overboard, they're still at sea, and... surely they don't trust each other to be fair about this?

Considering what they did...

[stillnot]

People aren't always smart enough to think things through.

Or maybe they really did trust each other. [ who knows. ]

[horologia]

Mutiny should usually involve a plan of some sort, shouldn't it?

[ no, sometimes it's just as simple as seeing the captain too close to the edge and shoving. ]

[stillnot]

[ it really, really is. ]

It should, but I mean... If there's a good opportunity, they wouldn't want to waste it and risk not getting another one.
