week one: mingle

Week One
30 in Competition

As the sun rises on Monday morning, all participants will find themselves awakening with a sense of purpose. Regardless of where they slept the night before, they’ll find themselves compelled to return to the main meeting hall first thing in the morning.

Approaching the hall, however, they will find a large, swirling mass grey in color looming near the sakura tree. This swirl cannot be approached just yet, but seems to be locked and waiting for something more.

As the last member of the village enters the hall, they will find Lune and Sol at the head of the room. Though they’re together, it’s Sol who speaks up first this time.

“Last night, Lune and I were finally able to get some answers. Or, at least, something we can do to help. The core’s still experiencing fluctuations and some instability, but we’ve figured out a place some of it might be coming from.”

They stop, excitedly holding up a scroll.

“This core is connected to several worlds out there. It’s the heart of the universe and everything that happens here can be affected by the outside, and can affect the worlds you come from. We found somewhere that seems to have a source of darkness lurking around…if we find it and clear the corruption, we can help stabilize the core a little more and help protect yourselves while you’re here.”

With that, they seem to lose steam just a little, looking back at Lune for a moment before nodding.

“So, uh…we were able to open a gateway for you to this world. Checking it out might help us pinpoint the source and get this done faster, so…leave whenever you’re ready. There’ll be another gate on the other side to bring you back here.”

That seems to be it, though Sol looks back to Lune again. “Anything else?”

"Look after one another," they repeat again. "And do not believe it is possible to be over-cautious."

The moment participants leave the hall, they will find that the gateway has changed from grey to white, the opening widening enough for multiple people to step through. The Signs will soon take their leave, and all will remain peaceful once more.

In addition, as the week goes on, partners will find that a simple touch (even accidental) may incite the bond between them to grow stronger for a moment. They will experience a swap of memories through their connection, taking a moment to see a piece of their partner's past without any control over what exactly is being shared.



Welcome to your week one mingle! Please note that as of this week, murder proposals are open. CYOA sign-ups are also live, and will close at Tuesday, 8 AM PST. They will be running on Tuesday afternoon and evening, so please be mindful of your own availability!

In addition, ensure that all of your week zero private conversations were reported on the page, and your week one private conversations are reported on that page. If you'll be taking anything from locations, please report that as well.

Yes, that's one of the reasons it'd be wonderful. You could get so many things done.

[ She wonders if Milla is lucky enough not to get put under the magical sleep, too? Wouldn't that be extra great? ]

You'd receive fewer nightmares, too.

And I think she can sleep if she wants to, so it's the best of both worlds! When she wants a break, she can still nap!

[ healthy people look at sleep as a 'break' from life, right? that's normal! ]

[ it is normal. that tracks for four. ]

She is really lucky for that. Perhaps we should both become Lords of Spirits.

[ is she joking? is she genuine? who knows? ]

That would kind of be a downgrade, usually.

[ but, well, she is an ordinary girl here. ]

[ Hm? ]

Oh? What can you do back home?

[personal profile] specialdog 2019-06-15 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
Anything I want.
forefall: (o heavens!)

[personal profile] forefall 2019-06-15 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
Can I have an example?

The details are a little complicated, but it's exactly what it sounds like. I can rebuild the city over night. I can get rid of anything I want, change whatever I want.

You must be disappointed, being here. Everything must be a downgrade in comparison to that.

Exaaaactly!
