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.

[He just looks so proud of himself coming out. I'm sorry about the speedo, let's just ignore that. He brings Clementine something in his closed hand.

Tada!

He turns it over and opens his mouth. It's a shimmery blue scallop shell.]

[stillnot]

[ it would be so funny if he brought her a scallop shell in his mouth.

... anyway, clementine lights up like a kid! ]

It's pretty!

[papasha]

[What the heck, no! Stop this.]

All yours.

[He is amused by her amusement, and he hands the shell off to her.]

The ocean can make some pretty amazing things, can't it?

[stillnot]

Are you sure?

[ but she takes it without waiting for an answer, holding it very carefully like she's worried it will break. ]

I never really thought about it that much before, but yeah.

[papasha]

Very sure, especially if it makes you happy.

[It was extremely rewarding to see her actually look thrilled about something. To look like her age. It reminds him of the younger version of someone he knows.]

And also some scary things, too, of course. Things none of us have ever even found. Luckily, we don't have to go that far down. And we get all the pretty things here near the surface.

[stillnot]

It does!

[ when she gets home, she'll put it on her shelf back at ░░░░░░░░░! ... huh? uh... hm?

oh well. probably nothing. anyway, it'll be nice to hold onto it until she can't anymore. maybe toss it in the back of a car or something if she manages to get another one while they're traveling! ]

Huh. I always think of water as safe... But I guess that's only thinking about the surface.

[papasha]

[STOP THIS. It's fine. Maybe he doesn't remember ░░░ ░░░░! Haha!]

Water has to be respected, I think. It can be safe, and relaxing, and comforting, but if you don't respect it, it can be scary.

Want to put your feet in?

[stillnot]

Walkers can't get you on a boat.

[ ... that's her logic. ]

Sure. That much is probably safe from sharks. [ she's kidding. ]
