week zero: mingle

[cyclists]

Week Zero
32 in Competition

On Monday morning, the sun rises on the sleepy village, and when the first ray of light touches the gates at each corner of the village, the previously tightly sealed doors open.

The barriers around the village fall, and leave it entirely open. Each cardinal direction will have a path exiting the village, taking the curious explorers who follow it on an adventure to new territories to be explored. They’ll find that each location that they arrive in appears to be associated with one of the elements. As the Signs had explained the day before, each of the participants in the game possesses an elemental assignment, whether they are aware of it or not.

When they approach the elemental areas, they’ll find themselves more in tune with their new powerset, as if the location invites them to take them out for a spin. The new areas appear to be perfect for training and learning how to use the new skills, or maybe if you’re curious you can discover which of those listed powers you’ve been granted.

Just try not to hurt yourself while you’re out there.

In addition, it seems now that more pieces of the core are being revealed, the river that runs through the village will begin to be dotted with small lanterns floating on the water. Some of them seem to be holding small notes. Try as you might to grab one, they’ll always just barely float out of reach.

Perhaps try sending one yourself and see what results you might get?

Occasionally in the village, you might hear the sound of drums and flutes - is that festival music? - though no matter how you search, you can’t find the source… yet.

I'm not sure if I want to "bother" him, exactly...

[preowned]

He'll still probably say it's you bothering him... Kara-bou is very cute like that, you know?

[nonbelligerent]

I'm not sure if "cute" is the word I'd use, but I know what you mean.

[preowned]

The prickly personality has its charm pointe. I heard that kind of thing is popular nowadays, isn't it?

[nonbelligerent]

Is it?

[preowned]

What's it like.... playing hard to get! If you're mean to me, it'll make the allure that much stronger!!

[nonbelligerent]

Isn't that for romance?

[preowned]

... is it?

[ hm. what's a romance. ]

I think it can apply to friendship as well.

[nonbelligerent]

[tsuru and lune]

I think it depends on the person.

[preowned]

[ tsuru died alone 😌 ]

Would you say that you fall under that category?

[nonbelligerent]

[idk giving lune the necklace probably counted as a marriage proposal]

I wouldn't say I'm one way or the other.

[preowned]

[ HE DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING ELSE TO GIVE HIM ]

So then you're... easy... for friendship?

[ it's very obvious he does not know the right terminology for any of this ]

[nonbelligerent]

I have no desire to befriend people who show me hostility or cruelty, but I don't make it a point to turn people away either.

[preowned]

Well, I think most people wouldn't want to become friends with someone who wants to hurt you.

[ ... ]

For the most part.

[nonbelligerent]

It bears noting. Some people mistake neutrality for being a pushover.

[preowned]

Do you consider yourself a pushover?

[nonbelligerent]

Is there a reason you're asking?

[preowned]

Yes.

Because I want to know.

[nonbelligerent]

Then no, I don't.

[preowned]

What would you have said if my answer was different?

[nonbelligerent]

The same thing.

[preowned]

[ sfjskfj ]

You really are funny.

[nonbelligerent]

Is that really that amusing?

[preowned]

You're kind of a tease, but in a weird way. I like it.

[nonbelligerent]

[stop flirting, you already have two husbands]

I'm not too sure about being called weird, but thank you.
