WEEK SEVEN: MINGLE

[retellers]

WEEK SEVEN: MINGLE (21 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. As usual, the participants will find that their lodgings have changed, and should anyone check their PHS, Chiron, Ochako, Soo-won, and Dorothy's profiles have been removed. They may also find that they have difficulty recalling complete details of the past weeks. Furthermore, it looks as though the rules have updated. Not everything is the same as the previous pattern, though. The barrier to the north is back up, and once more, what lies beyond is an empty field. In contrast, however, participants may notice that they can finally access a place they haven't been able to before... Additionally, it looks like the Leaders aren't around. No matter where the participants look, they're nowhere to be found. Should anyone try calling for them in the Planetarium, there will be no response—not even a message telling the participant that they're busy. Finally, everything around the participants begins to... glitch? Buildings may suddenly blink out of existence and then back in, random items like chairs or cups may suddenly distort even while they're being used, and looking at any particular thing for too long may give someone a headache. It's worse than it was that one week, though: participants will find that it's happening to themselves as well. Body parts might suddenly glitch out of existence then back in, and there will be a shot of pain when it occurs. It'll happen randomly, but it also seems to occur more often if they're touching something or another person.

[ More time travel. She slots away what she can now remember to ponder over another time.

Jeanne keeps somewhat of an eye and ear on the younger Haruhi and Kyon, but most of her attention and focus is on that figure against the fence. She goes to see.

Is it who they're looking for? ]

[retellers]

[ And it's a Rabbit, the version that they know, fast asleep on the ground, as Kyon and Haruhi go and jump start the plot of their series over there.

She is not waking up, but she is here. ]

[chanteuser]

Bunny!

[ she's absolutely legging it over to her and dropping to the ground next to her, gathering her up and half hugging her. ]

Bunny? Come on Bunny, wake up.

[lecarre]

[They did it!

Alex has got it covered and so do Hilda and Jeanne she's sure so.

Ange is here!! Present!! Not doing much though.]

[axecessory]

[ ange is their resident babysitter now that she's gone full spange.

hilda, meanwhile, follows suit with alex, immediately dropping beside them both. the fact that they found her at all feels impossible having gone through space and time to be here at this exact fence at this exact time, but hopefully... things are right now.

bunny needs to open her eyes first, though! ]

Is she okay!?

[discernments]

[ Jeanne rushes over but tries not to crowd. She hovers, her concern clear, waiting to see if Rabbit will open her eyes.

Please let Rabbit be okay. ]

[retellers]

[ She doesn't open her eyes.

There's a moment where nothing happens, and then from behind them, Kyon approaches. He glances at the group, before letting out a small sigh. ]

Asahina-san has a lot of good friends.

[ and then he goes back to where Haruhi is, because she is yelling.

Another moment passes, and slowly, the girl's eyes open. She blinks blearily, looking at the group before sitting up more properly and says in a sleepy voice, ]

Good morning...

[ It's not morning. It looks like there's something else she wants to say, she opens her mouth to speak again, and then... they all, once again, fall asleep.

And that's it. ]
