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.

[at least someone is having a good time. The deer comes running up too and then decides to stand near Dorothy in sullen defiance until Chiron trots up to the three of them]

Come now, do not sulk. I did not mean to leave you behind.

[deer: B/ ... goes to hide behind Dorothy]

[misstrust]

I think an apology is in order.

[ with a faint smile as she glances over her shoulder at the deer. ]

[antaressnipe]

I fear even an apology will not fix this.

[So he says, even as he's still smiling and holding out a hand. It takes a couple of seconds, but eventually the deer will give them a sniff and a nibble]

Ah, there we are. Apparently I am forgiven now.

[misstrust]

What a benevolent creature you are. [ To the deer. ]

I can't say I'm not envious, though. Running like that seems pleasant.

[ Alas, she is human and her leg is dumb. ]

[antaressnipe]

Ah. Yes, I admit it was far more pleasant than I had imagined.

[looking almost excited by the prospect of trying it again]

Of course, I had not realized I could reach that speed, but I will know for next time.

[misstrust]

You... didn't?

Have you never run before?

[ That can't be right. ]

[antaressnipe]

[... She earns a slow blink for her troubles, his eyes searching her face like he expects the answer to be imprinted on her forehead]

I--

[...]

Yes, I suppose I have.

[misstrust]

...

You've lost the memory of... [ Running? Running on four legs? ?????? ]

[antaressnipe]

[His eyes

tick to the side]

I have probably lost many things without realizing it.

[An abashed smile]
