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.

[ Dorothy looks at him a little dubiously, glancing down at her leg-- but then slowly, she reaches out to place her hand in his. ]

Well, I don't think you intend to whip me into a vigorous waltz...

[recrowns]

Only by request.

[but he'll move to hold onto her hand then, letting an arm loop around her waist]

Place your other hand on my shoulder? I can support you at least long enough for a dance.

[misstrust]

Are you certain? That's quite a burden...

[ But she's already upright, so she rests her hand on his shoulder, as instructed. ]

[recrowns]

You're never a burden. I promise.

[and he says that very certainly, picking her up easily as anything, guiding her out to the dance floor, aiming to jostle her leg as little as possible]

[misstrust]

[ Dorothy lets him guide her, just doing her best not to lean too heavily here. ]

Ah, and those sweet words of yours only continue.

[recrowns]

[she can do her best - but even if she does lean on him, he doesn't seem to have trouble taking her weight. instead, he'll just move to dance with her in time to the waltz, offering her an easygoing smile.]

Maybe you're just someone I want to be sweet to. The words I offer you are true, after all.

[misstrust]

And I do appreciate them.

[ She does. It's why she smiles back, giving his hand a squeeze. ]

Thank you, though. For bringing me out here.
