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.

[PLEASE punch him harder, he deserves it.

but! soo-won is just going to laugh a little bit at that - a warm and fond sound - before he goes to return the hug easily enough.]

... I hadn't intended to ever cause such an issue in the first place. I'm sorry, for leaving a bit early.

I'm sure you took care of her while I was gone.

[and that hilda took care of zuko but you know,,,]

[cuedoves]

[ zuko is pretty tense, he can tell, but zuko gives him a little squeeze. ]

You better make it up to us.

[ he doesn't sound particularly serious, though...? he kind of. laughs, even. ]

... I didn't do anything.

[ it was all her. ]

[recrowns]

[why is he tense!! hmm... soo-won will just pat his back reassuringly]

I will.

[self-assured as always.... he'll help out though - of course he will.]

I'm sure that you're just not giving yourself enough credit again. You've done plenty to help.

[cuedoves]

[ zuko pulls back a little from the hug, enough to put his arm on soo-won's shoulder and inspect him for injuries. ]

[ he doesn't want to argue this point, but. ]

Well, anyway. The gang's back together.

[recrowns]

[no injuries on him!! infuriating. hate this man. he'll look zuko over similarly before tilting his head]

So we are! I'm sure people are enjoying their reunions.

I'm having fun with mine, too. Though Hilda did hit me a few times.

[cuedoves]

[ he's got some bruises and such but also his arm is burned? don't worry about it. ]

You deserved it. I should have hit you harder.

[recrowns]

[zuko youR BURN - ]

Ah, well, save it for later. Let's go get this taken care of first.

[which is why soo-won is just going to start guiding zuko in the direction of the first aid station]
