week two: mingle

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 waves his front legs uselessly in the air]

I can't walk yet... but when I have some apples I'll be revived!
forefall: (the boredom of your gaze)

[ can't believe he's making her a gopher girl

She closes her eyes and sighs. ]


... Be grateful when I return.

[ She goes off around a multitude of traps for apples from the village farm.

She's back... eventually with a prize or two. ]

[swift wind spends the entirety of the time she's gone lying uselessly on the ground and contemplating the best ways to express his gratitude

when she returns, he perks up, gets to his feet, takes a wobbly step toward her -

and with a thwiiiippp, finds himself strung up in another trap]</small Oh, now that's just unfair.
forefall: (your gaze)

[personal profile] forefall 2019-06-20 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
[ sorry britt

Four stares at him with a dead look in her eyes. ]


Must you be like this? I shouldn't have expected anything different.

[personal profile] hashtaghelping 2019-06-21 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
It wasn't on purpose...

[WEEPS.]

Please save me, oh great and powerful Four to whom I will be forever grateful and in your debt...!
forefall: (emptier and deeper than you are)

[ She turns around and walks away.

She's back in half an hour to bail him out if he's still stuck. Second verse, same as the first. ]

[he's still here. hanging around. looking dejected.

he's been ABANDONED...]
forefall: (a funereal urn awaiting a few tears)

[personal profile] forefall 2019-06-21 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
[ SHE CAME BACK. She's here. She looks tired.

She went to get a dagger from the ninja shed that she'll have to return later since it can't leave the gateway. She does the climbing and the cutting and the setting free-ing. ]


If you can fly.... please fly.

[ Let those wings not be for nothing. ]

[the temptation to have him land directly on another trap was really high




but for the sake of four's sanity, he flies. he flaps his wings and looks a little tired, and is more, like, hovering than anything else, but he's had a long day and this way he's avoiding the traps]


You are the BEST, Four. You really are. I knew you hadn't left me behind!

[he's perkier now]
forefall: (a funereal urn awaiting a few tears)

[personal profile] forefall 2019-06-21 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
[ Four is just going to hang out in this tree. Swift Wind may be perkier, but Four is pricklier now. ]

What would you have done if I left you?
hashtaghelping: (001)

[personal profile] hashtaghelping 2019-06-22 07:22 am (UTC)(link)
...hung out for a while, I guess? Someone probably would have found me when we had to investigate stuff at trial.

[he probably would have died, actually]
forefall: (eyes raised heavenward)

[personal profile] forefall 2019-06-22 03:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Her face scrunches up in disbelief. ]

You would have died.

[personal profile] hashtaghelping 2019-06-22 03:57 pm (UTC)(link)
...nah, I think I'd be okay?

[...]

Like, a murderer would probably leave me hanging around to make it look like I did it. But you guys would be smart enough to realize that I couldn't kill anyone if I'm trapped up in a tree!
forefall: (the boredom of your gaze)

[personal profile] forefall 2019-06-22 03:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Uh.

How does she tackle this. Maybe she just shouldn't. She sighs. ]


You should invert that.
forefall: (but is it not enough)

[personal profile] forefall 2019-06-23 04:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[ should have left him hanging and trapped???

She sighs. ]


No, it's fine as it is. Please... slowly fly yourself to safety. I would hate for you to get trapped any more

[all ten people who freed him from traps should have left him there, and yet,]

Good plan!

[flutters his wings]

You're always full of good plans, aren't you, Four?
forefall: (in the gaslight which colors it)

[personal profile] forefall 2019-06-25 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
[ She smiles. ]

I try to be. It's hard to improve otherwise.
hashtaghelping: (003)

[personal profile] hashtaghelping 2019-06-25 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
See, that's why you're so great!

[chasing after improvement is so admirable! this horse adores four. weeps.]
forefall: (you sow at random)

[personal profile] forefall 2019-06-25 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you, but I only hope to be able to help people when I can. That's all.

[ he adores her, and then his corrupted self told her THE HUG WAS GROSS. ]

[IT'S BECAUSE THE CORRUPTION WANTED TO GET UNDER HER SKIN]

Well, I think you're doing a great job.
forefall: (that you are a semblance)

[personal profile] forefall 2019-06-29 01:36 am (UTC)(link)
[ IT KIND OF WORKED ]

I hope you'll continue to think so in the future. Sometimes, I wonder what other people think.

[personal profile] hashtaghelping 2019-06-29 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
[LOOK...]

Of course I will! As long as you try your best, that's what's most important. It makes you number one in my book.
forefall: (pours out confusedly)

[personal profile] forefall 2019-06-29 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
[ I'M LOOKING REALLY HARD ]

Am I really? Surely, there has to be someone above me.
