week three: mingle

[cyclists]

Week Three
24 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. I wonder if you'll find the skyline familiar? Do try to be kind to those you find on the other side."

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

"You guys did great minimizing the damage and working together...so keep it up."

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 begin to experience the emotions of one another. The clarity of these emotions enhances with proximity, and they will be able to feel the emotions of their partner's intermingling with their own.

No, that wouldn't be in a book.

[ he sounds. pretty sure about that. ]

[omegathree]

I suppose not.

It's just something people have to experience.

[Looks. Significantly at Lea. But then moves right along like he didn't do anything odd.]

Perhaps something on the psychology of love instead of these self-help books?

[leaberator]

[ he looks sheepish at the significant look because he interprets it completely the wrong way. ]

Yeah, I know...

[ a n y w a y ]

I don't think any book's gonna be any good, subject matter or not.

[omegathree]

[thank god they're both morons.]

You can ask me anything you'd like. I can't promise I know everything, but I do have more experience than you.

[leaberator]

... Thanks, but no thanks. That's kind of...

[ embarrassing... ]

[omegathree]

I won't judge you.

[leaberator]

[ ohhh my god ]

I don't know that that'd make it any better. [ anyway: ] So you've been in relationships before?

[omegathree]

I have.

[Like two! Good job, Val.

He seems happy to be helpful.]

[leaberator]

Yeah? With who?

[ axel used deflect, ]

[omegathree]

Fenrich and Artina.

Neither of them are here at the moment.

[Despite everything else going on he still sounds wistful. It's been almost a month away from his kids and his family.]

[leaberator]

Oh, yeah, you've talked about 'em before.

[ but, hmm... ]

Are you still with either one?

[ he didn't know val was in a relationship!!! he is so proud of you, bipire, ]

[omegathree]

I'm with both of them now.

[Maybe he misinterpreted the question??]

[leaberator]

[ ... :o ]

Wait, at the same time?

[omegathree]

Yes.

[Anyway he's like. Gonna gush. He loves them?? So much??? ]

Fenrich is the person who vowed on the moonlight to stay with me as long as the moon shines. He supported me and never gave up on me, even after I lost most of my powers.

Artina is a brave and fearless young woman who has a pure heart. She treated both sides during a war. It didn't matter to her who they were or where they came from. My promise with her is the reason I don't drink human blood. Because of her acts of kindness, she became an angel.

[leaberator]

[ two?!

anyway, he grins a little ]

Sounds like you really care about 'em, huh? That's cute.

[omegathree]

Of course I do. They're two of the most important people in my life. I rely on them both.

[leaberator]

You must miss 'em a lot, huh?

[omegathree]

[He sighs because even with whatever this is going on in his head, he still loves those two.]

Yes... It's strange to not see either of them after a month.

[leaberator]

You'll see them again soon enough. A month's not that long a time, right?

[ since he's always saying Time Is Short and whatever ]

[omegathree]

It isn't long at all. I just... miss them.

[Let him go home]

[leaberator]

... Yeah, I get that. It's tough when you can't see the people you want to the most.

[omegathree]

Who do you miss?

[leaberator]

Ah... some friends from back home. But I'll see 'em again.

[omegathree]

Once we all go back to our home worlds?

... I'd like it if we could stay in touch somehow.

[leaberator]

[ ah!! ]

Yeah? Well, if everything works out alright, I might know a thing or two about world travel.
