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!

[goodbye skeletons he is leaving you behind, and ignoring the fact that he's being laughed at. he hates this place.

he probably was too far to hear what the skeleton said, just their last parts of the conversation... so he glances down at the chest the two of them are carrying. hm. well, they seem to have that part well in hand.]

Generally the safest course of action, yes-- though someone else is sure to test it sooner or later.

[probably do not leave this unguarded.]

[retellers]

[ Mayhaps they can carry this chest... to the port? "That's a very far walk and how will they know to go there." MAYHAPS THEY CAN TAKE IT TO THE PORT. ]

[sacredchants]

[ CLEARLY WE SHOULD TAKE IT TO THE PORT SO.

and look. izumo has done nothing wrong this whole game...she has made some poor decisions but she has done nothing wrong. and she's hurt so izumo is here for moral support (mainly). ]

Well, if there's no way that we want to test it out here, why not bring it back to the port? At least we won't have be in this stupid swamp anymore.

[discernments]

We'll have to make sure no one can test it, then. If no one protests, perhaps we can sink it in the ocean— Ah, but I don't want my new fateful partner to become a skeleton, so we'll have to seal this chest up tight.

[ But.... to the port, they go???

This very nice long walk will be fine, probably. ]

[arkitect]

Very well, then. There may be something there of use for the sealing.

[let the man make his mistakes, jeanne. it's the only way they learn.

he decides not to say so aloud, though, and will just be coming along with them... letting the girls carry the chest even though everyone saw execution happen... she seems fine? she seems fine.

if she or izumo ever seems not fine he might step in, but for now, no.]

[retellers]

[ Once they reach the port, these three will get to see a boat that is definitely not the Howling Rose, where a bunch of their friends are riding, and also Lup is being held by a kraken.

There is Elsa, who is telling them to pay the kraken.

Hm. Okay.

This is the first time I am sending this tag. ]

[sacredchants]

[ was.



everything this bad when they left? it was just fire right? why is there suddenly a kraken???? someone explain??? izumo's not gonna have words but instead just kind of look to jeanne then to emet-selch.

look, she's fine with handling this in the most basic fashion but she's not making verbal commentary. ]

[discernments]

[ Jeanne takes in this entire sight and

Well, it scans. She's not surprised, just accepting. All right. Okay. She's fine with Emet-Selch not helping carrying this giant chest either. No one can get mad at her for reopening her wounds tonight. Soo-won said she was in the clear.

She's just going to run towards the kraken. No brakes, no fear, only adrenaline. Better keep up, Izumo!! Jeanen's not slowing down. ]

Do you think the kraken is going to turn into a skeleton if it takes this?

[ She's curious. ]

[arkitect]

What did they do here--

[lup why are you being held by a kraken what is HAPPENING.

but also, this scans. he just pinches the bridge of his nose as he sighs out slow.]

Well, whatever happens to the thing, just get it over with so we can put an end to this mess.
