WEEK FIVE: MINGLE


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.

[huffily drying his hair off. At least he’s very clean now.]

Again, can I just suggest we blow this off and go get high or something? I mean. You tried. I got attacked. This one just watched it happen. That should be enough for the nova.

[ he’s very clean. I hope he smells fresh and like lemons it something nice, also. ]

...

Well, the other big thing is cleaning the floor. We might as well?

[ taako can get high in the corner if he wants to ]

Ahaha...

[ whoops. ]

We can probably handle it...even if the room's pretty big. Right, Miss Alex?

[ elsewhere, a little mouse runs across their path and leaves the tiniest little pawprints in a line. xie lian's qilin looks at it like it's a snack.

can't believe they're gonna let taako get high in a corner ]

Do you know how fucking good at cooking I am? Why would they not let me cater? This is really just insulting. I’m finding it hard not to take this personally.

[The mop starts coming back, pulling a U-turn.]

No! No! Not today!

I'd rather be cooking too, y'know. [ would she? looking at the fact the ovens don't work or aren't available and live chicks are hatching out of eggs? maybe not. ]

I think it's all random though, so... don't take it personally?

[ ...

y'know what it's xie lian's turn to play keep the mop off of taako. alex has had her turn. ]

That's probably my fault... I'm sorry.

[ that we ended up on team cleaning anyway... bad luck for the others, but what else is new.

as the mop makes a u turn, this time xie lian's ready!! he immediately hands alex the feather duster and ruoye pile -- ]
Go with Miss Alex, Ruoye! [ and then rushes out to catch onto the handle of the mop with both hands.

it is stronger than he expects, and he yelps a - ]
- Wah! [ as it yanks him forward, splashing everyone involved with more lemony fresh mop water. he does manage to get it to go around taako at least, but this thing is hellbent on cleaning him and he's just holding on for dear life. ]

[Just. Crossing his arms. Watching.]

Doesn’t feel so great, right?

[But at least then, the mongoose hops down off his shoulder and comes over - starting to screech and squeak at the mop, which actually backs off? Why. Why is this creature screaming.]

[ alex is holding a feather duster now. and a ruoye, who wraps around her arm and wiggles. the feather duster does very little to shield her from the lemony scented water that's splashing around, but hey.

at least they're all having fun.

the cat has now spotted the mouse again, and runs after it yowling loudly. the mouse squeaks, and darts across the ballroom floor, dashing through lemon scented water, leaving little dusty footprints over cleaned floors and executing a beautiful leap over taako's mongoose. if the judges were here, it would be tens across the board.

but they aren't. so all that happens is alex's cat barrels after it, skids on the wet floor and crashes into the mongoose, the mop and xie lian at the same time. ]

[ xie lian's still trying to wrangle the mop away from taako, but it is hellbent on trying to clean him of his sins. his qilin grabs onto the handle also, and they both pull and pull for dear life. just as it seems like he might finally be able to settle the enchanted thing into holding still for a moment --

two objects cannot occupy the same space at the same time. it is a basic law of physics. so therefore, when the cat crashes into the mongoose, which crashes into xie lian, which crashes into the mop, the laws of physics mean that all of them are going crashing to the ground in a soaking wet heap. xie lian squawks a surprised noise as he lands flat on his back with an "oof!"

his qilin attempts to flee the situation, and just to add insult to injury, knocks over the water bucket from the mop, which immediately dumps an entire deluge of lemony water into his lap and all over alex and taako's feet, too.

rip. ]

[Yakety sax starts playing.

There’s a train crash unfolding in front of him, all of the animals are screaming, Xie Lian is probably drowning, the hardwoods are ruined, Taako’s boots are wet, Alex is panicking.

The mouse walks back out, slowly. Stops to observe. And then just casually walks away. No one here is trying to stop it. It leaves little feetie prints across the floor.



Taako bursts out into giggly laughter.

Okay! Now I’m glad we’re doing this.

[ alex sneezes. ]

...

At least the water's all on the floor so we can just. Mop. [ her cat makes a disappointed mewl and sneezes as well. ]
