WEEK TWO: MINGLE
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! |

It's the pub owner! That asshole!
[ She charges forward to where the man is, who is currently in a burning building. She runs into it. Hikaru's job is never done.
Meanwhile, at the boats. The skeletons point and laugh at Ochako falling, like assholes. They then start to move the boat very quickly in the direction of Shiro's--looks like they're trying to ram them??
Also, they're still shooting. ]
no subject
good news: hikaru and fire go very well together! she is not scared whatsoever!
bad news: wow our abilites are nerfed! oopsie doodles!!! (: (:
There is no second thought unfortunately - she is charging right in after the woman, shoving her uniform jacket up against her nose and mouth with her free hand. Where the FUCK did you go, Karen, this is not how you get your complimentary McFlurry--]
no subject
Heroes.
Also disregarding the fact that our abilities are nerfed, here he comes, running after Ochako and into the skeletons' gunfire. He probably gets hit or nicked on the way to yeeting himself onto the boat Shiro has commandeered? (Me, rolling my actual dnd dice to see if he gets hit and getting a 12: you have failed me.) It's fine, he's had worse. ]
no subject
But it does not make for an effective window, so. Well.
Time to play bumper boats? He doesn't realize how close the skeleton boat is until they're practically on top of each other.]
no subject
but also
if the boats are close enough
she's going to get up on the edge of shiro's boat and try to board the skeletons' boat? by like. tackling one of the skeletons themselves. please tell me they shoot her before she can and set me free. ]
no subject
Meanwhile, on the boats, they are definitely bumper boating right now. A few of the skeletons jump on though, and immediately charge at Hua Cheng and Shiro, both with guns and swords.
Karen is going to be so pissed when she sees this later when she sees this damage. I just rolled and Ochako got a 19, so she does not get shot. In fact, she somehow manages to knock two skeletons overboard. Wow! ]
1/2
Karen and Pub Owner are not the ones in immediate distress so she's heading to Rabbit first, lowering her sword only so she can take Rabbit's hand in one of her own while reaching up to brush at their face with her other palm.]
It's okay, Rabbit-san, it's okay -- I'm gonna get you out of here. Stay with me.
[Keeping one hand against Rabbit, she straightens up, looking in Karen and Whatever-His-Name-Is's direction--]
2/2
Both of you!! Argue outside before we all die!!!
Get out of the building! Now!!!
no subject
He doesn't hesitate to go for the closest skeleton holding a sword, aiming to take the head off with a swift strike to yeet at a neighboring skeleton. He has probably fought skeletons before. This is, again, just another Wednesday. ]
no subject
With skeletons on the ship, Shiro isn't going to be able to board the other ship yet. He has to help Hua Cheng first. And that means squaring off against skeletons and tossing them around the ship, since he doesn't currently have a weapon to fight them with yet.
Can he steal a sword from a skeleton? Or even steal an arm holding a sword. He would like to have one right about now.]
no subject
no subject
[ Karen doesn't get to finish the sentence, because the roof collapses--and done come some skeletons with it! They are on FIRE, because they're already animated skeletons, of course they will be chill with fire. Rabbit yells uselessly. You have powers, you fool.
Hua Cheng manages to take down a skeleton. But then... remember the ones who fell overboard? You fools, they are also waterproof, didn't you see that cool scene in the first PotC film? The one we totally aren't ripping off right now? Anyway, they grab onto his legs in an attempt to pull him overboard.
Shiro... can steal an arm, that is also holding a sword. But more skeletons are boarding, so he better think fast.
I am vetoing death for Ochako because Ray wants it too much. They try to fight her off, but she is much shorter than them as I just decided, so she can dodge their swipes. Ochako can have a gun. ]
no subject
Roof comes down, Karen and Whoever He Is go in one direction while Hikaru pulls Rabbit in the other, pushing her down until the debris clears a little more and coughing for breath.]
R-rabbit-san! Stay behind me, we're gonna head for the door!
[rip the other NPCs, but she needs to prioritize here before doing Extra Stupid Stuff. She'll try to lead Rabbit back through the debris towards the door, pausing only when a fire skeleton gets too close to grip at her sword, pushing her weight from below to jump up and slash the thing clean in two.
I rolled an 11 if that matters so sweats.]
no subject
Shall we, then?
[ Thanks for your help!
His footing might be a little unsteady, and he might be at risk for being dragged overboard, but he kicks one leg at a soggy skeleton as he brings the sword of the other skeleton around - skeleton attached, for maximum yeet! Whether sword or skeleton inflict friendly fire on a neighboring pirate, whatever, let's dance.
He will take out as many of these fuckers as possible before casa de snisi finish watching POTC, where the underwater scene is currently happening. ]
no subject
Oi, think fast!
[Maybe using the sword to try and hit one of the boarding skeletons towards Hua Cheng isn't a good idea though.]
no subject
well, fine. guess she's got two whole guns now. why do you keep giving a fifteen year old guns. you're all lucky that someone taught her how to hold them properly or she'd probably be shooting fafa in the leg right about now, but there will be no hate crimes at the port today, unlike certain other locations i could name.
can she shoot a skeleton in the skull? will my luck finally run out? ]
no subject
Meanwhile, Hua Cheng is fighting off these skeletons! But more keep trying to grab at him to try to drag him into the water. They are very determined. Especially the skeleton that Shiro just smacked over to Hua Cheng? It's knocking into him. That's awkward.
Some other skeletons watch this, and then look at Shiro. ]
Awkward...
[ Yeah, that's what the metatext said.
Anyway, I rolled again and got a 17, so Ochako shoots the skeleton in the skull. Sweetie your rolls. ]
no subject
The awkward skeleton will get swiped at again to finish the job before she takes a running slash at another. She is getting singed to kingdom come at this point and it hurts, but she doesn't care.]
Out of my way!!! I'm not gonna let you hurt them!
[And she is going to attempt to lop one of their flaming skulls off like a homerun.]
no subject
It's - again, it's fine. Nerfed as he might be, he's also not the Ghost King for nothing? And once enough skeletons have grabbed onto him, Hua Cheng is honestly tired of their shenanigans. Ochako and Shiro can certainly handle the rest if he can just - occupy them? ]
At this point - let the damn boat sink - [ YEET - he throws the skeleton he was using to sweep the others away, as far as he can possibly judo fling the thing. Someone please go check on Hikaru while he grabs the skeletons back and.
So long, he's going to let the ones in the water drag him down, pulling whatever bones with him. ]
no subject
[He says that as the other skeletons make fun of him, which annoys him and it's time to fight more seriously. If only his priest magic worked, fighting skeletons would be so much easier.
He'll launch himself at the skeletons Hua Cheng isn't fighting, trying to knock them off the boat. Remember that skeleton arm he got earlier? He's going to throw it at one of the skeletons too.]
no subject
how many skeletons are on this ship anyway, is your girl horribly outnumbered with only two guns to her name? can she steal another gun from the skeleton she just shot? let her shoot the other skeletons loitering around this stolen boat! eat bullets, skelevillains!!
oh or does she have to reload the first gun because she won't know how to do that on a fucking flint lock pistol so if that's the case she'll just WAIT NEVERMIND she's too short for that uhhhhhhh what if she just tackles one and shoots it in the skull with the new gun i don't know she's got good rolls tonight it'll be fine probably ]
no subject
The flaming skeleton head goes sailing... at the same time that a skeleton with an arrow in its eye wanders in. It is blind now, and it is lost and alone, but then a flaming skull hits it and knocks it over. This game becomes less ADA compliant as time goes on.
Shiro manages to hit the skeleton with the skeleton! It falls into the water, but tries to desperately grab onto the boat. Actually, it's just trying to tip the boat over now. Hm.
As for Ochako... she just rolled a 5. The bullet hits the skull! And ricochets off it! Please dodge. ]
no subject
haha wouldn't that be wild. in reality, she just got the notif to her phs late and scrambled out to the nearest area that didn't seem to be overly hectic with other people. she's no fighter, but she is a pretty thorough scout and quick to think on her feet, which is how she managed to snag a gun that she's attempting to shoot at one of the fire skeletons attacking hikaru and the npc squad. surprisingly enough, she actually seems pretty competent with the gun, and her stance as she lines up the shot seems to lend further support...
but on top of francia's 6, google decided it hates me especially and gave me a 4 so she. misses the skeleton and ends up shooting karen in the leg instead. oops. this causes her to scream and wave the gun around frantically as she runs toward the group in a panic. ]
Shit—sorry, sorry, I'm really sorry! N-no hard feelings, right?
[ ALYSSA YOU JUST SHOT SOMEONE ]
no subject
except now she's got a bullet wound????]
A-ah... Don't apologize!!! Come on, help me get them out of here before the rest of the building falls apart!!!
[QUICKLY TRYING TO CLIMB OVER THE RUBBLE TO KAREN hi karen you look like you've had better days]
no subject
First, he's calling up to Ochako:]
Oi! Get back to land, it's safer to fight there!
[Maybe. There's fire, but no risk of drowning.
But then Shiro is diving in the water to go after Hua Cheng and free him from the skeletons. Hopefully he can grab him before the boat tips over on both of them.]
