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.

[none trust for this horse player :unamused: but sora hums a little and starts setting aside ingredients as they're handed to him, wincing every now and then as he moves his arms too much.]

I don't know about mixing them together while they're batter, but we may as well have it. Can't we just bake the cakes separate and then combine them when they're done? Like with frosting or something.

You can. Why not, right?

[ she's gathering whatever else she can find up here, squinting - passing them to the frog boy and also sora. ]

Like, there's no cake boss coming out to put a hit on you because you didn't put it together to the standards of the cake mafia. Also, marble cakes? Hello?

[~~shit I didn't realize it was my turn~~ ANYWAY--]

... Marble?

[SORRY HE'S THINKING OF LIKE, ACTUAL MARBLE.]

Ah, I had not realized that humans could stomach such things...

[ALSO SORA YOUNG MAN, HE SEE YOU WINCING--]

One of you will have to eventually tell me why Sora is injured and in possession of an extremely rude bird, you realize...

I think she just means like a mix. Like something swirled? We're not actually eating marbles, that sounds pretty gross.

[...whistling! he's going to start looking for measuring cups and stuff, too.]

It's no big deal. Everything worked out fine.

I definitely meant like real, circular marbles, but wow, Sora's idea is so much better! Let's do that.

[ stop ]

He went on an adventure and gave me a heart attack, that's what he did. [ :unamused: ] I don't know all the specifics. He's fine.

I have no idea what the measurements are for these. By the way.

[Children DON'T GIVE HIM SASS.

Thankfully though, he will not be too stubborn about getting in Sora's business and will just. sigh at him from across the kitchen, still bringing down whatever ingredients he can find]

I do hope the bird does not have a taste for sweets, at least.

[Please imagine the birb just swooping down and taking off the top layer of cake before the party even starts]

... Well. I assume the frosting will cover any mistakes.

[THAT IS NOT HOW IT WORKS]

[chiron is doing great and being a very helpful horse. so he's going to start figuring out measurements and adding things to a large mixing bowl.]

Pretty sure the bird has a taste for flesh, actually. [what.] But we'll have a ton of frosting to cover everything anyway. Maybe strawberry to go with the vanilla and chocolate cakes?

Okay, if the bird is actually hurting you, I'm asking Clementine to shoot it.

[ she says this... so dryly. ]

Neapolitan cake. Rad. [ she brings her ingredients to sora, and then: ] Uh... go for it. Just throw some stuff in there. Let's do this.

[... Looking at the bird in stone-cold judgment.]

I see.

[Indeed he sees. That is a soon-to-be dead bird if it doesn't change its ways in a hurry]

Well, in any case, I will leave this part to you.

[Unless you want the horse to pour in half a pound of salt because he doesn't know what he's doing]

First of all, please don't because that means Clementine pointing a gun at my head and that is probably scarier than the bird. Second of all...how should we decorate the cake? Any ideas?

[he'll improvise and mix as he goes.] And one of you crack the eggs for me. Just to make sure we don't get any shell in it.

She's got really good aim? It's fine.

[ she wants to crack eggs! which she will, and she definitely gets eggshell in it, but like, she fishes them out. so. ]

Definitely flames. Like Guy Fieri flames. All of the side of the cake. [ neither of them know who that is and you shouldn't either, lup ]

We will need dye for the flames, correct?

[Chiron never understands half of the nonsense Lup says so he just breezed right along to decoration discussion. Also gonna look for some dye! ... it is again in the corner of the highest shelf like the universe is really against Lup's idea]

I think so. So red and yellow and we can mix them for orange. Guess that means the frosting's gonna be white.

[he's busy throwing stuff into bowls, sticking a spoon into it to start trying to mix carefully.] So Ru says flames, but what do you think Chiron? Anything else?

[...also, to lup:] Stop sticking your fingers in the eggs. [he can't see if she's using her hand or a fork but still.]

[ can't wait for this cake to look like it walked out of diners drive ins and dives ]

No. [ she tells sora, digging out another eggshell. ]

[C̶͚̳̤̭͖͌̈͜ḫ̴̢̬̘͖͇͂͆i̷̭̜̘͆́̂̈́̓͐͂r̵̜̈̄̒̌͑̚͠ö̷̧̨̜̠͍̮̫̖̻̈́͜͝-̶̡̘̻̲͙͗̆-̷̛̝͖̠͓͕̬̯̓̑̅̐̓̀͆̂͘͘͜
̵̻̱͇̼͂͌̇̒͝

... Yeah the horse just. stands there and stares at both of them in growing bemusement.]

Mm? I--

[... What?]

[oh for fucks sake why does no one remember their name except for him.]

...are...you okay? [this is to the horse who does not know he's a horse.]

[ sora next week: my name's roxas ]

Are... you good, dude? [ she echoes. ] Archer?

[And his head

immediately turns for Lup, answering her question without hesitation]

Yes, I am well.

[Then back to Sora]

Forgive me, I must have been... distracted.

[SORA DOES NOT DESERVE THIS and yet here we are.]

In any case, the ... cake. Yes.

[Flame cake? Flame cake!]

[...o h.

oh that's bad...he raises his eyebrows but he doesn't quite say anything about it, giving chiron a smile that's both real and forced all at once.]

It's okay. I think we're all kind of distracted thinking about this cake. I don't really know how to frost flames so maybe I should leave the decorating to you two? Especially if I'm making the--

[he does not get much further, because the oven suddenly clangs loudly and bursts into flames.]

--hey!

Speaking of flames.

[ THE OVEN EXPLODES and lup just stares at it. a beat. ]

I didn't touch it! It wasn't me!

[honestly?

This face.

He does not want to See.]

This is the third fire I've seen since coming here...

[The horse is TIRED]

Okay, well, can one of you help me put it out maybe? [GUYS? THE FIRE IS THERE?]
