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.

But the Realm won't let you even do that. It'll be gone next week.

[chanteuser]

Don’t bring me back down to earth with a bump already, this just started.

[stillnot]

[ clementine laughs ]

Sorry, sorry.

[chanteuser]

[ :( ]

I'm sure it'll probably all go wild again tomorrow but... we can let ourselves relax for this evening, right?

[stillnot]

I think so.

[ said as if she takes that question very seriously... ]

[chanteuser]

[ ... clem, your stress levels. ]

I think so too.

[stillnot]

[ listen, clem knows she needs therapy, she just also knows there is not really anyone around to give it. ]

Having the horrible shit scheduled makes it easier to relax a bit the rest of the time. [ only a bit because things can still go bad any time... ] But it also makes it feel a lot more... Set in stone that something bad will happen.

[ ... she's just thinking out loud. ]

[chanteuser]

...

You're not wrong. Like, this is all nice and relaxing, but there's the worry about what's going to happen tomorrow, or Friday. Hoping nothing happens just feels... naive.

[stillnot]

Bad stuff happened all the time back home, but it was never as predictable. Can't decide which is worse.

[ fuck she's a downer. ]

But, uh. Tonight is nice?

[chanteuser]

[ ....


she laughs. ]

It is. Let's just appreciate it.

Have you checked out the buffet spread yet?

[stillnot]

[ her whole face lights up. food!!! ]

... Not yet!

[chanteuser]

[ food! ]

Me neither. Wanna go and grab a bunch of food and hide in the corner for a bit?
