week two: mingle

[cyclists]

Week Two
26 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 Lune who speaks up first this time.

"Good morning, good morning. You've done well to purge the corruption in the previous gateway - allow us to assist with the finishing touches. For the time being, it would appear as though we've been able to locate another. The land might appear a bit familiar to some however... I only advise you watch your step."

When Lune finishes, Sol chimes in from their place at Lune's side.

"The corruption is still out there, and we're going to do all that we can to find a way to contain it. But until then... stick close to others this week. Do your best to protect yourselves and look after each other. Okay?"

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.

The only oddity is that throughout the week, in a noise that extends past the portal but seems to resound even through the village, there will be the occasional, resounding call of a war horn.

In addition, as the week goes on, partners will find ever-growing feelings of anxiety and nervousness dwelling within them the longer they are separated from one another. They will feel compelled to be very close to their partners at all times, and will be on edge if separated for more than an hour by the end of the week. Welcome to surprise codependence at its finest.



Welcome to your week two mingle! As a reminder, murder proposals are open. We will also be hosting a mini-event on Tuesday, so please be on the lookout for that.

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

[ He'll take a seat and do as he's instructed. But he's also just going to use the coat that's already wrapped around his leg. ]

What do we do after that?

[quailvering]

[as long as he's applying more pressure it's fine]

Next we need to clean it! [he's tryin' to be proactive, ok, he's trying to sound in-control]

Once it stops bleeding, that is... um, it might sting a bit!

[but probably not as much as like- the actual wound]

[omegathree]

[Good job, little birdie.

Now that he doesn't have to keep himself upright, he's much more in control.]

Yes. That's what I've read. Do you have antiseptic or alcohol for a cleaner?

[quailvering]

That's right! [he holds up... a tiny tube that is probably over-stressed for the amount of wounds he's got to deal with]

This is, um, an ointment! If you could rub it in after I place it, um, I'd be grateful! ... it's hard to get off my feathers.

[omegathree]

[He'll look at the tube, and then down at his leg. It's definitely too small to deal with his wound, and he'd rather not over use the minimal amount of medical supplies they have lying around.]

That's not going to be enough to cover the injury.

[When he uncovers it, the bleeding has stopped but the wound looks deep and goes from the back of his knee all the way down to his ankle.]

[quailvering]

[......................................]

Um, I guess I should get more, then!!

[omegathree]

If you can't find enough, feel free to use a bottle of alcohol.

[quailvering]

Drinking won't help this!

[idiot]

[omegathree]

What?

It's for the wound. Pour it over the wound.

[quailvering]

Oh! ... Oh, right! [let's do that, then]

[omegathree]

Do you have any here?

[quailvering]

Um- maybe- I can look a few places-

Otherwise there's definitely some back at the village!

[omegathree]

I can make it to the village. [Probably. He needs a real cane for this instead of stabbing the dirt.] You should stay here for everyone else's injuries.

[quailvering]

[BLEASE HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HE'S DOING...]

You shouldn't go by yourself! Th- there are some- thingies around!

[eloquent, kazuaki]

[omegathree]

[what]

... Thingies? What do you mean?

[quailvering]

Big scary black thingies!

[......................]

L- Like zombies or something!

[omegathree]

I see, you mean the men who are overcome with malice. I suppose here we'd call it darkness.

[quailvering]

Yeah! Those thingies! [cut him a break, he's a bird]

Most of them get stuck in the houses b- but you could get ambushed on your way back!

[omegathree]

Yes, I fought one.

Can you fight?

[Everybody here can cast magic, but that doesn't mean combat magic.]
