WEEK SIX: MINGLE

[retellers]

WEEK SIX: MINGLE (25 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, Elsa, Yona, Shigeo, and Fiora'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. Once again, participants may find that they have difficulty recalling complete details of the past weeks. Also, anyone who had been poisoned during trial will still be feeling sick! Haha! Finally, participants will find that they are now sporting a new injury. This injury is one that they received in their past, whether they remember it or not. No matter how fatal the injury is, participants won't die from it, and the pain they feel will be dulled down. However, if another participant touches someone's injury effect, even if it's covered, then they will both be hit with whatever pain that was felt when the injury was first inflicted. This pain will last ten seconds. The injury can also be as minor or major as desired.

i. the beach

[A head emerges out of the water of the ocean just beyond the waves exactly like a Loch Ness monster. It's fine.

It's just Blanca, and he's in snorkeling gear. He takes a second to lift the goggles to get any lingering water and fog out, but then pauses to glance toward the beach.

He waves at anywhere loitering.]

You should come in! The water is nice!

ii. wildcard

[Or wildcard/pc me.]

[chanteuser]

[ blanca what the fuck ]

[papasha]

[It's fine? SNORKELING!]

[chanteuser]

[ DON'T EMERGE FROM THE WATER LIKE A DEMON OUT OF THE ABYSS?? ]

Are you looking for something? [ she points at the snorkel? hello? ]

You're not just going for a normal swim.

[uhhhmagic]

[Taako is nearby, but, he's already in the water! Just hanging out on a surfboard, feet in the water.

He gestures down to indicate "Yeah. Well. Duh?"]

[papasha]

[Hmmmm.

He situates the goggles back on his face. And then goes under the water, but, like, completely.]

[uhhhmagic]

[HE'S GESTURING SOMETHING BUT

because Blanca is below the water

he will not see it. Taako just rolls his eyes and waits because. He has been around many boys in his life. He knows where this is probably going. It's mostly fine.]

Monday, ii

[antaressnipe]

[Llama








okay no, I'll give you more of a prompt than that. We'll say when Blanca is done with his snorkeling, he meets a llama of all things on the beach, its ears half-drooped as if in defeat.

It's had such a long day.]

[papasha]

[Well, I'm so very sorry Llamiron is meeting Blanca on the beach after snorkeling because he's been wearing this, so you just skipped straight into the joke. You're welcome, Marie.

Why is there a llama? He looks around, bewildered a second, and then back again.]

Hello. Lost...?

[antaressnipe]

[Sir did you know you are packing heat.


... And thus the llama turns its head so it does not have to perceive.

It's also going to... nod... yeah it is lost. Return it to its owner(s?) please]

i

[stillnot]

Mm, nah. Blood attracts sharks, doesn't it?

[ she probably shouldn't go in the water with her stab wound OR her shoulder wound. does she actually know about the sharks? no. no she does not. ]

[papasha]

[Hmm. He glances around, and then holds up his right arm. It's bandaged, but looks like it's bleeding a little beneath it. When it isn't getting washed away.]

I'll punch them in the nose for you. Mm. Hold on then. What is your favorite color?

[stillnot]

Does that work?

[ she doesn't know how to fight sharks. but uh? hmm. ]

Blue, I guess...?

i.

[lecarre]

[I'm gonna go ahead and assume that unless Blanca is suddenly blind, he doesn't in fact say that to Ange since she is, you know, a mess with that missing eye and everything.

But!! When he resurfaces and waves, she waves back, casually chilling on the beach.

It's warm and she's enjoying the sunshine.]

... Have you found any interesting fish?

[papasha]

[Why do these very innocent, adorable young children keep tagging in when Blanca is in a speedo. I have made a grave mistake for my shitpost. Thankfully, Ange is very gay.

ALSO, HE IS YET AGAIN CONCERNED FOR ANGE.]

One or two. What's your favorite color, Miss Ange?

i

[reconnective]

[THIS IS THE SADDEST LOOK IN THE UNIVERSE.]

I don't think I can swim as far as you can right now. [...but he immediately kicks off his shoes and starts to wade in the water. it's fine, his w1 burns are pretty much healed and faded.] Find anything good out there?

[papasha]

[EVERYONE IS SO HURT. Blanca has a bandage on his arm (he's going to get a bandage tan), but he's still in the water like a fool maybe.

Instead of making Sora come all the way out, he starts swimming closer until he gets about waist level.]

Would be nice to find some treasure, wouldn't it? There's a beautiful reef under the water with some fish, but not much else.

[robopriest]

[He looks very much like a cat who is too curious to leave but is too dubious to stand too close so he's just. Shaking his head.]

[No.]

[papasha]

[HANSA, your feral catness. This confuses him, at first, but he also saw Hansa in a fucking tree, so. He thinks he can connect the dots a little. Also, maybe the salt water makes Hansa rust, he doesn't know.

Slowly, he starts coming out of the water a bit, removing the goggles.]

Not a fan of water, or not a fan of the ocean?

i

[sacredchants]

[ ......


blanca. her injuries. ]

I don't think so.

[papasha]

[Pbbblttt. THE BEACH. He rests the goggles on top of his head and debates.]

You can put your feet in.

[discernments]

[ He is probably not going to say that to her because she's so injured. He is probably saying that to someone near her that won't be named.

Or maybe he is because he's too far away to see her injuries. I don't control Blanca.

But she is going to smile brightly and pretend he is. ]

Is that you giving me permission?

[papasha]

[He's saying it because the salt water will disinfect all injuries. Especially injuries to the soul.]

Absolutely. Didn't you know I was actually Poseidon?

beach

[horologia]

[ she just. peers at him from under her parasol. wow, wouldn't that be nice. ]

Did you not get injured like the rest of us? I'd imagine that salt water would be fairly ... bad, for open wounds.

[papasha]

Depends on the wound and the water, I suppose. It might sting just a little.

[He's teasing.]

Do you have a wound on your feet? You can always put those in.
