week four: mingle

[cyclists]

Week Four
22 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.

"We've been asked to open another gateway for you guys, but...it's funny. It sort of feels like things have calmed down. The corruption's temporarily evened out and the universe is stabilized for now, but that doesn't mean we should stop looking. Take a look and see what you can find on the other side. You might even get to learn something new."

When Sol finishes, they turn to face Lune, allowing for the other to speak for themselves.

"A bit of reprieve of welcome, isn't it? Please take this time to recover, even as you make steps forward to continue your good work. Thank you, thank you."

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 be able to hear each other's thoughts whenever they look at one another! They may not hear every single thought that occurs, but the link will partners to hear thoughts as though their partner is speaking out loud. The more private the thought, the more likely the partner will pick up on it.



Welcome to your week three mingle! As a reminder, this is break week! This means no murders and no trial! Your normal schedule will resume next week. We will still be hosting a laid-back mini-event on Tuesday, however.

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

iv. open and good luck

[papawolf]

[ tilting his head and then shrugging. sure? he'll let himself be pulled by the kid.

he'll just sip at his coffee while waiting to see what kaoru has planned ]

[twinsightful]

[Kaoru has a plan, of course, but he pauses halfway out the door to loop back around to Feral.]

Any preferences? [He a.) wants happy customers and b.) is well aware Feral's kind of an adult and should take that into account, maybe.]

[papawolf]

[ Preferences?

Just going to write "Surprise me?" on a napkin to show him. ]

[twinsightful]

A surprise I can do. [Apologies for Akane, really.] I'll be by with tea and coffee once you've been situated as well. Should that be a surprise as well?

[specialdog]

[ Hello, it is Akane! And I'm very sorry!

... But she isn't. She sits down across from Feral and looks pretty cheerful about this whole thing. ]

Oh, we haven't gotten to talk much! This will be nice!

[papawolf]

[ Giving a wave.

And then pulling out cue cards to show her. The first one says woof. Did he mean to show that? ]

[specialdog]

[ She does not understand, but listen... she's been dating Minato for long enough that she's getting used to rolling with some weirdness.

She curiously brings her hand up to mimic a paw. :3 ]

Nya?

[papawolf]

[ ???

Looking a ther and then looking at the paper. He'll flip that one down and shake his head.

Then he'll look through them before pulling out a new one. ]

How are you?

[specialdog]

[ Oooooh! So prepared! So handy! ]

I'm good! Bored enough to go on a blind date, but good!

How are you?

[ She hopes he has enough cue cards for this conversation. ]

[papawolf]

[ hmm...

he probably doesn't. also would whatever be rude to answer back?

he'll find the good.

then looking through them. She might be able to see Minato's hand writing on a few of them? ]

Food?

[ That one isn't in Minato's writing ]

[specialdog]

[ Interesting! And--Oh right, Kaoru left them with drinks and cake, didn't he? She glances down, assuming that's what he means. ]

It's nice to have some sweets in the middle of the day, huh?

[ And she takes a bite of her cake! ]

[omegathree]

[He takes the seat across from Feral and pulls a plate of cake closer to him.]

Having fun?

[papawolf]

[ Offering a shrug and then pulling out pieces of paper.

Looking through until he finds one. ]

Maybe.

[ Then writing on the back. ]

Just got here. You?

[omegathree]

Hm... I'm not having a bad time.

[He gestures to the pieces of paper.]

Did you make those yourself?

[papawolf]

[ Shaking his head.

Just going to write under that. ]

Had help. Want to make some?

[ If it's sardine facts... ]

[omegathree]

What are you missing so far?

[papawolf]

[ He will offer them over to let him flip through.

Woof, No, Yes, Whatever, Shut Up, Hug, Food, Alright, Okay, Probably, I don't know, and a drawing of a rectangle? ]

[omegathree]

... Woof?

[papawolf]

[ He'll point to his red eye then point to his hair. Trying to say red hair ]

[omegathree]

[The red eye is also the one that has a scar down it. So he gets this one incorrect.]

... Scar... hair?

[You know what he'll write? "Smell test" since that seems to be Feral's job at several trials now.]

[papawolf]

[ He shakes his head. WRONG

Oh yeah he has paper and pencils...

just going to draw Lea. It might look like a cartoonish hedgehog though??? ]

[omegathree]

Ah. Yes.

[Right the object of his affections for a full week.]

... Why did he write woof?

[papawolf]

[ that's a face.

he doesn't want to know.

Feral just points to his tail and then huffs out a breath. ]

He thinks he's funny.

[omegathree]

[Thanks for leaving that one alone.]

He has his moments.

[But he'll take a moment to consider the tail.]

Are you a werewolf?

[papawolf]

[ ??? ]

What?

[ And then he'll write under it. ]

Lupian.
