WEEK FIVE: MINGLE

[retellers]

WEEK FIVE: MINGLE (29 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. Finally, should anyone check their PHS, Alyssa, Hikaru, and Bucky'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. On that note, if your character did not stay, please make sure to check your notifs. Once again, participants may find that they have difficulty recalling complete details of the past weeks. Finally, participants will find that they now have another pet to take care of. Small creatures (based on any animal of player choice, real or mythical) will be following them around all week. However, these creatures are emotionally tied to their participant, so whatever the person they are connected to is feeling, they will outwardly display it. Angry? They will be hostile. Happy? So are they! Even more, they will react to other participants based on how theirs feels about the other. Anyone their participant loves, they will also love. Hope you don't secretly hate anyone, that might be awkward.

[aw they seem happy]

No - let's— erm, definitely focus on you!

I'm glad you're kissing as much as you'd like! I am content with the number of kisses I get—

Which is not many at all!

[THIS SELF-DUNK]

[evocationary]

Don't explode. You look like you're going to explode.

All of the boys here are so useless! [ HUFF ] Well, actually, all of the girls are too. The gall of all of you refusing to kiss each other.

[recrowns]

Erm, maybe that's what matchmaking is for...? Or so I've heard...

[don't give lup ideas]

[evocationary]

[ DO NOT GIVE HER IDEAS ]

... Hmm. Anybody you think needs an extra nudge?

[recrowns]

Oh, I don't pay attention to that sort of thing...

Maybe if Shigeo wants to? Or - Usagi, I think, since she might be feeling lonely.

[HE'S SO UNAWARE]

[exercisms]

[Casually, in the background, getting up to go to the bathroom.]

[evocationary]

[ she gives him a flat look. ]

Hopeless! [ SIGH ]

I really need to set my brother up, but nobody here will treat him right.

[recrowns]

Oh, then let's do that.

[HE JUST

IMMEDIATELY AGREES TO CONSPIRE WITH HER]

Does he have preferences in a partner?

[evocationary]

Tall, burly, uh... patient. Tanks, mostly.

[antaressnipe]

[Chiron who has been eavesdropping on some of this while drinking alcohol: what is a tank?]

[recrowns]

[ . . . . tilts his head

glances at lup

at blanca

back to lup]

.... You made your life a bit harder on this one, didn't you?

I suppose there's Archer? Though I'm not sure what his relationship with Emet-Selch and Hansa is.... [a beat] If any of them overhear this, I apologize and do not wish to involve myself in your private affairs.

[antaressnipe]

[... Just sips his drink]

[recrowns]

[ah

smiles pleasantly]

Want to help us search for a partner for Taako?

[antaressnipe]

[He's had like five drinks at this point bc I will not let tipsy!Chiron slip through my fingers, binches]

Of course, after someone explains a tank to me.

[WHERE IS LUP]

[recrowns]

Miss Ru, we need another lesson on what a 'tank' is.

[evocationary]

Oh, uh. Like...

[ hm. ] A voluntary meat shield.

[recrowns]

[it's

an old reaction but 'meat shield' does manage to get a bit of recognition from him, in the form of a pout. is he thinking of someone?]

Ah, I see...

[ . . . .

he has

no idea who fits that description for taako]

[uhhhmagic]

You’re a tank.

[Gestures to. General shape.]

Meat to hide behind.

[antaressnipe]

... I see.

[INDEED HE SEES he looks behind him at all of his everything]

Well, I believe it would be odd for us to date, so I wish you luck, Taako.

[He's had one too many drinks]

[evocationary]

Listen. Blanca's a fucking nerd. Taako doesn't like nerds.

Also, Taako can't date Archer, Archer is like, my dad. Gross.

[recrowns]

Eh? He is? That does make things more complicated.

[THE WAY THAT LUP LIMITED TAAKO'S DATING POOL ALL ON HER OWN]

Hmm.... Wolf perhaps...? I don't know if Fox is - um, a 'tank'.

[evocationary]

Honestly, anybody who treats Taako like a princess is fine. But nobody does.

[recrowns]

I try sometimes, but I don't think that's helpful.

[evocationary]

It is not, considering the conflict of interest.

[ ... ] Anyway, do you see why this is so difficult?

Hm... maybe Sora has better luck.

[uhhhmagic]

It’s why you’re the only valid guy here . . .
