WEEK ZERO MINGLE - Party Games Edition

[hellscapes]

Rise and shine, little deadlings. It's a beautiful day here in Hell and you're not gonna get anywhere by sleeping in all morning. After a rocky weekend, you may be finding yourself still trying to make sense of everything. Like…you're dead. Isn't that still so crazy? Wow!

But don't wallow about it. It's time to embrace your new afterlife and take a look at the world around you. You can look outside the windows of your dormitory and see that the reddish sun has risen a little higher in the sky. There's no cheerful sound of birds chirping or anything of the sort. You only have each other right now.

Venturing downstairs, you'll find that the front door has finally unlocked and you're able to step outside. The air is hot, a blast of warm air directly smacking you in the face as your feet step onto the dry, barren wasteland stretching ahead of you. Little cracks and fissures appear under your feet as you walk, glowing crimson as the heat follows after you. But it's worth exploring, don't you think?

For any of you who immediately make a break for the dock, you'll be happy to hear that there isn't a ferry at the moment. You can see the faint outlines of islands in the distance, but you have no chance of heading out to any of them just yet. Boo. Oh well. There's plenty of places to look around on this island. You didn't exactly get a grand tour yesterday, so take the opportunity to look around and get to know the lay of the land.

Maybe you're the chatty type who wants to get to know everyone else around you. Or maybe you're the type who just wants to mind their own damn business and expects everyone else to, too. No matter what though, as you go through your daily activities over the course of the week you will find that on occasion you will be compelled to tell a lie or spread a rumor about another new resident. You might tell a stranger your new roommate has cute underwear with little bunnies on it. Perhaps you'll tell someone else that the person across the street was programmed with the most tragic backstory on account of being a cyborg. There's no limit to how real or outlandish these stories are.

It almost seems as though it's simply meant to be an annoyance.

And speaking of annoyances? Don't forget to check out what's new on Bicker. You can always contact each other via public Beeks or by sliding into their DMs.

Likewise, you'll find that your personal demons' accounts are live and active and despite what some of them may say, their DMs are also open.

Good luck!

Good morning everybody, and welcome to your week zero mingle! A few notes for clarity.

-This week's effect is a rumor mill! Characters will feel compelled to lie or gossip about other characters at various times, or whenever the rule of funny applies.

-Audiences for the personal demons are now open! Please submit all requests under the correct weekly header.

-Please submit all PC submissions under the correct weekly header.

-The Bicker poll is public! All replies will be public, and players may also post their own Beeks in their toplevels that will be considered public. You are free to reply directly to the appropriate toplevels, or you may create Beeks in your own toplevels with other prompts. Be free.

[ well, date's here. he's in his regular clothes, and holding a cup of shitty, probably warm beer from the shitty, probably warm bar and ready to (?)rumble. let's goooo... again! ]

[voidshift]

[slaps a king on this thread.]

Congratulations.

[bottoms up date]

[psynchronise]

[ he just looks at the beer ]

...

[ :( ]

But it's so shitty...

[voidshift]

Then why drink it, when you have better options? Finish it off and get something new.

[he's not getting out of finishing the shitty beer first though]

[psynchronise]

[ he is sliding his glass across the table.

unsurprisingly it meets the edge and falls off ]

…

Whoops.

[ he is already getting a better drink. ]

[voidshift]

-oh, fine, more room for the stronger stuff then.

[this time it's valid.]

[psynchronise]

Sweet.

[ his liver might not thank him for it but he does grab his new drink and chug it. heck yeah!!! ]

[toyska]

[AN ACE wow we're just gunning to get Date a hangover aren't we]

[psynchronise]

[ yeah make him suffer. at least he has a better drink now thanks to rynlan ]

Cheers.

[ he’ll hold up his drink for a lil clinky clink ]

[toyska]

[A TOAST the one good thing about this is that it's probably safe to assume none of this is poisoned because what would even be the point, they're all dead anyway]

Might as well enjoy it in case they change their minds. [Which they fuckin WILL]

[psynchronise]

Yeah, I give it about an hour. One of them will decide we’re “too loud” or “enjoying ourselves too much”.

[ his turn. the dice have said he gets an eight. ]

Huh… make up a new rule/wildcard.

[toyska]

Oh--I'll take that one. [His rule is "give him the card" I guess] I promised to pass along all of these to someone else.

[psynchronise]

Of all the things you could ask, collecting the cards is what you go for?

[toyska]

[He just winks]

It's for a good cause. [WHAT does that even mean]

[psynchronise]

[ yeah let him just-- ]

I'm afraid to ask.

But what cause?

[toyska]

[Wow he's done nothing to earn this suspicion]

Nothing nefarious! [Anyway he promised he'd give the 8s he finds to Harrow, so he's gonna take it and go find



Gideon]

[psynchronise]

[ uh oh that immediately seems nefarious ]

[toyska]

[Look he doesn't know much about them so he's curious to know if Gideon will immediately use her power for evil or not]
