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.

[Actually, this gets him to crack a smile up at her.]

Come on then. There's some stuff on the beach. Want me to come help you find them?

[chanteuser]

[ if this means he's going to baywatch walk out of the ocean i'm cutting this thread off anna. ]

Sure, I don't think I'd know what I'm looking for. It'd probably save us both some time.

[papasha]

[He is uh

Baywatching out of the ocean because he has to get out, Becks? To help her?

It's fine, he isn't running.]

[chanteuser]

[ thanks for not running with everything out on display, blanca. you're a pal.

alex is already looking at some of the equipment like she's not really sure what to do with any of it, turning the snorkel over in her hands thoughtfully. ]

[papasha]

[Hmmmm.

He comes up beside her with the snorkel looped around his (non hurt) arm.]

What would you like to do exactly? I can float you out, and you can look down from the surface, or you can... take a hand at snorkeling, too. If you're able.

Have you ever been swimming, or to the ocean?

[chanteuser]

[ whoa. hello. ]

...

[ this is almost a catch phrase for her at this point, but-- ]

I don't know, actually. But you... float, generally don't you? [ like. bodies float? ]

[papasha]

Generally, yes.

[He looks slightly amused.]

Does this mean you're agreeing to take a chance snorkeling out in the depths with me?

[chanteuser]

[ very


very


seriously: ]

Have you seen any sharks out there?

[papasha]

[...

He looks dramatically thoughtful for a moment or two, and then smiles.]

I saw one or two swimming around the reef.

[They were just like

nurse sharks, but still.]

[chanteuser]

[ she looks



SUPREMELY

uncertain. ]

[papasha]

[Her distress makes him finally laugh gently. He waves a hand.]

It's all right. There are probably a few reef sharks. They won't hurt anyone. I think the ones I saw were nurse sharks, or something like it. They are far out.

[chanteuser]

[ rude ]

...

And they won't try to bite your leg off while you're swimming...?
