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.

[i can't believe we really just went from trauma to full shitpost?

neither can shirasu, because this thing is now a mess. it's nowhere near as funny to him, he doesn't really get why she finds that in particular so hilarious-- but at least between him managing a little humor at it and her absolutely losing it, that will probably do the trick.

thank god for xion or this would have just been nothing but the depress express.]

[blackcoats]

[ shirasu joining in appears to be the final nail in the boggart's coffin, and tenkaxel finally just falls over its dumb as fuck-looking self and vanishes in a puff of smoke. when the haze clears, a small key like the one hermione had initially mentioned is left behind.

give xion a few more seconds to calm herself, lightly wiping a single tear from the corner of her good eye. ]

We... we did it.

[wagashis]

...I suppose so.

[it's a little embarrassing that it turned out to be just something like this after all, but-

well. he had his reasons for letting it get to him, honestly. he just shakes his head, exhaling a sigh.]

Take that and let's get back then, shall we?

[because he's pretty sure she will not hand the key to him.]

[blackcoats]

[ sobering up considerably once she gets those last few chuckles out, she nods and grabs the key before it can fly away and keeps it tucked between her palm and the wand. before she starts walking over toward hermione to turn in their task, though, she utters, ]

... You'll need both hands to push yourself, after all.

[ she's rude now, at least to shirasu, ]
