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!

[ making sure to put himself between the girls and the skellies, zuko is just going to use these skeleton arms like dual swords instead of his actual sword, he will also yeet crabs at the skeletons!!! ]

Fang! Can you get these snakes to help?!

[ snisperer zuko is on the case????? also fang was here the whole time and i didn't forget him ]

[ THERE ARE SO MANY CRABS. hilda lets zuko deal with the surprise skellies since he's being so cool and noble about it anyway, grabbing what else is left of the captain and just. stuffing him in a cannon. maybe all the other skeletons will follow if they shoot him out to sea.

his remains are covered in crabs, which goes without saying. ]

Sumire! There's some gunpowder, but—what are we even doing?

[ as established, she doesn't really know how to use this thing...... but surely they'll figure something out? right? ]

[Zuko, so heroic...

It doesn't seem like she hears Hilda until the gunpowder is brought up, and you know? That is an excellent question!]

I— I don't know. I've never dealt with real gunpowder before.

[But there are pirates right who have, so... Hm. She whips out the captain's head with one hand, and grits her teeth as she pulls out her dagger with the other. Holding the dagger to the captain's skull, she calls out:]

H-Hey! Teach us how to operate the cannons, or your captain gets it!

[She is probably bluffing and hoping they didn't notice Hilda stuffing the body in there, but. Look at all these dead skeletons. You sure you want to test that, buddy?]

[ The skeletons stop in the middle of what was probably a PRETTY epic battle with Zuko when Yoshizawa shows them the head. They absolutely did miss the rest of the body being yeeted into the canon because of it, and so they raise their hands ]

C-Captain Jeff!! Please, don't hurt him!!! He's just in love and misunderstood!!!!

[ the skeleton head, meanwhile, is making grumbling noises like it is about to wake up...

also crabs are here ]

I do know how to operate canons.... more or less.

[ zuko adds belatedly bc i forgot last tag and he was busy fighting skeletons ]

But you'd all better cooperate. You don't want to mess with this girl, she's crazy.

[ he is trying to hype sumi up in the worst way possible??? ]

[ well it's too late for that now, zuko. they're in it. hilda's brow furrows as she adds to the sumi hype train. ]

Yeah, that's right—she's our captain and she's tougher than yours! She'll crush him to dust under her heel!

[ anyway she's also kind of blocking their skeletal line of sight a little so they don't see what they're up to. how do they even see without eyeballs? whatever. ]

[Oh. Well. This is happening.]

Y-Yeah! [Oh, god. Oh, boy. What does she say? Uh. Oh, jeez. The captain is waking up. Oh, no.] So... So, um, you scum better do as I say, or there will be a true bloodbath!

[That could have been more convincing. Please, go back to sleep, Jeff.]

[ The skeletons start whispering among one another. They may hear words from time to time, like "yeah she does look bad", "she's just standing there with an arrow in her arm, it's incredible dedication", "you think she'd use that arrow to stick it to us". At the end of it all, they throw their swords to the ground and raise their hands up ]

We surrender!! We'll, please!!! Don't hurt our captain!!

[ jeff makes a grumble that sounds a lot like scallywags but does not wake up yet. is this time... to yeet. ]

[ they're doing it, they're making this work, even if they're covered in crabs and one of them has an arrow sticking out of her arm and generally this has been a terrible experience. she whispers in a little aside, ]

Way to go, Sumi!

[ before i godmode zuko into helping man this cannon after all, actually. hilda takes off this lovely ring she's worked so hard for, which has now been tainted with the Drama of today, and stuffs it in the cannon too. then, she keeps the the other skellies at gunpoint, just in case they get any funny ideas. ]

[With Hilda holding the other skeletons at gunpoint and Zuko helping them out, Yoshizawa turns her back to then in order to pull the captain's skull back out. She gives him a gentle little pat on his skully little head.

In a very hushed voice:]

... Sorry. I hope you find someone who, ah, really loves you one day.

[And then she shoves the skull into the cannon. Goodbye, captain. Time to meet your future husband, Tuff Kasumi.]

[ The girls and Zuko succeed in putting the captain's entire body in the cannon alongside the ring, and shoot him off into the distance. He lands somewhere Francia gets to pick for hilarity.

The crew finally realizes what happened and rush to the side of the fort ]

Captain Jeff!!!! Noooooooooooooooooo!!!!

[ jeff, as well, wakes up right as this is happening, and screams in a barely audible tone: ]

'tis all yer fault jimmy doorington th' third!! curse ye 'n yer alcoholic sprog!!! ye dead scallywag!!!!
