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.

[ Buddy you're taller than Alphinaud. If only donkey ears were weird to him, but look, he comes from a world with like, wolf people and turtle people and fish people and—you get my point. ]

... "Tik tok"?

[ Alphinaud looks back to Ochako, puzzled. ]

[infreefall]

[ okay, now she is peeking over her shoulders, and when she spots the ears, she freezes.

kemonomimi?? ]

Erm... Well. You know, I'm not really into that kind of thing, but there are a lot of people who are? It's, um - maybe they think it's cute? You could still get a lot of views, probably.

[ she did not sign up for this. ]

[retellers]

Not with my specific demographic! They're going to roast me!

[ HE LOOKS AWAY. ]

I'll never guest star on the Game Grumps now... my views...

[arcsplainist]

[ .... ????


Alphinaud whispers quietly to Ochako: ]

Do you understand what he's saying?

[infreefall]

[ she pats alphinaud on the arm and whispers back: ] You're so cute when you're being medieval.

[ back to business: ]

Well, there's your first problem. Isn't the gaming crowd supposed to be on Twitch?

[retellers]

[ he shakes his head. ]

I am at the age where if I am anywhere near a gaming console, I will call people misspelled slurs, so I am trying to protect myself by instead using the platform where if I mess up, the Game Grumps will be slower to see it because it'll take longer to reach their sphere.

[arcsplainist]

[ Ochako???? Cripes, he actually goes a little red and quickly turns away from her. What is going on here. ]

I— [ BUSINESS. BACK TO BUSINESS. ] I see naught wrong, if I must speak plain.

[ Alphinaud points to his own ear. It's long! ]

See? We are not too terribly different.

[ This kid's are just fuzzier. Details. ]

[infreefall]

Oh, you're one of those.

[ frowning! ]

If he's like that, then maybe we should just report him to the moderators, Alphinaud. Once they ban him, he won't have to worry about the Game Grumps anymore.

[retellers]

[ Alphinaud has no fucking idea what's going on here. He doesn't know what these words mean. ]

What?! No, I need to beat Dan in an episode of Versus! Not cool! What are you, a narc?

[arcsplainist]

[ Alphinaud...... has no fucking idea. ]

M... mayhap I shall leave this to you, Ochako.

[ LIKE. ????????? ]

[infreefall]

I don't need to be! They have a reputation to uphold, you know, and it doesn't include nerds who think they're cool because they spend all their time being jerks in a video game!

You'll never stand a chance as long as your attitude's like this!

[retellers]

[ He makes a horrified donkey noise, and then moves to run away again. ]

Ariiiiiin.

[arcsplainist]

[ .... ]

Do you think we should leave him?

[infreefall]

[ she's, like, super tempted to say yes and just abandon this jerk. but after a moment ochako heaves a sigh. ]

No, probably not. We can always take him to the petting zoo if he's so set on being an ass.

[ huffs. fine, she'll go up and nudge the guy with her foot. ]

Hey. If you want to meet Arin, you have to get better, okay? So you're coming with us.

[ they are still trapped in the fun house ]

[retellers]

[ They are still trapped in it, but the kid knows a shortcut by being a horrible child and going into the areas he is not allowed in. ]

[arcsplainist]

[ GOOD. let's go. please. ]

[infreefall]

[ for alphi's sake, ochako will explain tiktok, game grumps, and maybe a few memes on the way out ]
