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.

[he begins to jog alongside them!]

Good to see you getting out today.

[retellers]

I needed to find something to do.

[reconnective]

This is a start. How far are you planning to go? [does tiger have a route planned?]

[retellers]

I don't know. Until I want to do something else.

[reconnective]

Okay. Then we'll keep going. There's a few paths in the forest too that could be a fun challenge. [he's apparently not leaving.]

[retellers]

[ tiger is not remotely surprised. ]

Of course you'd know that.

[reconnective]

So what I'm hearing is "yeah, show me where they are, Sora!" [thanks.] Plus most people are in the town right now or at the castle so you can keep going uninterrupted.

[except for him. he'll interrupt.]

[retellers]

[ he will always interrupt ]

I'm guessing you did your exploring already?

[reconnective]

A bit. But there's always new stuff to explore in these kinds of places. I like going out first thing to get an idea of what's out there.

[retellers]

Don't run into trouble immediately.

[reconnective]

I usually like to wait a day or two, don't worry. [this is a joke. or is it.]

[retellers]

[ tiger just

groans

sora......... ]

[reconnective]

...just kidding? [IT'S. LATE TO SAY THAT.]

[retellers]

You are so not.

[reconnective]

I could be! You don't know that.

[retellers]

I'm pretty good at reading people. Also, I've met you.

[reconnective]

I can't decide if that's a compliment or an insult. [but he shrugs it off.] I think you're right though. You seem to know how to read people pretty well. That's a good skill to have, isn't it?

[cheerbleed]

[ again, still masked, ]

Mm... I think so. We already have enough socially awkward nerds around.

[reconnective]

Most of them are getting better. [he does not dismiss that there are socially awkward people around, but he's going to give them some credit anyway.] It just takes a little patience.

[cheerbleed]

Me? Patience?

[reconnective]

You've put up with some of us this long. What would you call it?

[the difference is sora isn't exactly socially awkward.]

[cheerbleed]

An excellent customer service persona.

[ this is a lie she hasn't tried that at all ]

[reconnective]

Very funny. [he believes this none. but he nods ahead.] Wanna take this trail with me? It only loops through the entrance of the forest so it's not too far from town.

[cheerbleed]

Hm... fine.

[ nature.... remember going outside.... ]

[reconnective]

[we live vicariously through our characters...that is to say, he picks up the pace and starts leading her toward the woods.]

Cool. [he's very excited and i hate this, but we can free ourselves of this if you want.]
