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.

[And so the horse gains a support human and the balance is restored]

... Are you sure I am not taking you from the dancing?

[He does feel bad about that? Let Alex dance and be pretty on the floor! Just give him a wall to support and maybe a glass of wine to calm his nerves]

I've been pretty happy taking everything in from the sidelines so far. You're not taking me away from anything.

[ support horse-and-human duo, go! ]

Don't worry about it so much. I'm spending time with you because I want to.

[That seems to make him relax, and the baby deer also perks up in response with a little more pep to her step]

Well, I can only hope you have been enjoying the party so far.

[ the cat seems relieved, and slinks it’s way between the deer’s legs with a happy mew, once it’s perked up ]

Yes!

It’s just nice to be doing something fun for everyone, for a change. And watching people dance in all these outfits is nice to see too.

Mm, yes.

[Glancing at the outfits in particular. Everyone is certainly dressed for the occasion, though Chiron picks at his own with vague bemusement]

I suppose I should be thankful I was fitted in a more... open outfit.

[Please imagine him in pants.

It's a terrible thought. I will never give that gift to anyone, not yet]

It looks very nice on you.

[ she isn’t lying. He looks very dashing in his toga.

also i refuse to use think of him in pants. ]

-- Does it?

[Many things make him anxious about this party but thankfully the outfit is not one of them. He picks at it in amusement]

The style is so different from everyone else's, but there does not seem to be any rhyme or reason to the outfits.

[...]

Truthfully, I am just glad I have not yet stepped on it.

I definitely don’t own anything like this back home.

[ she lifts her arms and the cape rises with them. long and too fancy for her, really ]

But yours suits you. Trust me. It looks good —- unique enough but it fits you well.

[ pfft ] Oh, yeah. I feel the same about all of my dress.

You flatter me so.

[But he looks relaxed and pleased and far, far less anxious than at the start of this]

Though you truly are lovely. If I knew how to dance, I would offer you one.

[ well that's a relief at least. her cat is still purring around the deer's legs, making sure it doesn't feel alone. ]

I'm only saying things how they are.

Don't worry though, I don't know how to dance either. Maybe we can sway awkwardly to the music while sitting down later, or something? [ it's a date. ]

[He is about to open his mouth and make a remark about not being seen with the quadruped, but y'know what.

No.

He told himself he would try, at least]

... If you do not mind, then... alright.

[ honestly? she looks pleased. she hadn't wanted to suggest anything that might make him bolt. ]

I don't mind at all.

[Alex chose the correct option of letting Chiron warm up to the idea and now she will be rewarded with a hesitant nod, but a nod nonetheless]

Perhaps a slower song...? I suspect that will not lead to the same level of disaster.

[ look, she's proud of him. he's sticking it out. ]

Slower song is fine with me. I'd probably trip on my dress with a fast song.

[at his core, he just ain't a coward when put on the spot, and after surveying the dance floor will hold out a hand to Alex]

Shall we?

[ well, she's not going to say no. she slips her hand into his with a smile. ]

We can stay closer to the edges of the dance floor, if that's easier for you.

That might be wise...

[And even though he's the one who offered, Chiron is... already glancing behind him like he's surprised there is so much horse following him around, so.

Alex might have to be the one leading.]

[ that's.... if this wasn't still lowkey concerning her as much as it does, she'd think it was slightly cute that he keeps being so startled by his horse parts. ]

Sure. Come on---

[ she's. well. he's very tall. so she's going to try and get into hold here? but it might be more of an "one hand is in his and the other is somewhere on his bicep" because boy. your height.

it's fine, she can still lead like this. ]

[Their height difference is absolutely hilarious and Chiron doesn't miss how they are not suited for this--

Even still, it's. almost fun? He is not going to pretend he has any rhythm when he is so concerned with what his feet-hooves are doing, but there's still a flicker of a smile as they try and move about the dance floor without bowling people over.]
