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.

[squinting... what]

[bookpapers]

You should pick truth.

[that's not how you play lavi]

[cavaliered]

[oh the urge to be contrary but also a dare sounds like the worst thing in the world actually so]

... Truth?

[bookpapers]

[hehehe]

Who do you think's the best-lookin' out of all of us? You can't pick yourself.

[we know ur good looking gideon]

1/2

[cavaliered]

[WHY THIS

gideon opens her mouth and then IMMEDIATELY closes it. looks at the like, four girls in hell.]

[cavaliered]

The archangel's pretty hot.





[saved it]

[bookpapers]

[lavi looks around like he's hoping whoever does truth or dare next will ask Gideon who those three other girls are,]

Oh, Uriel! Yeah, she's super cute. Blondes are nice...

[shut up lavi]

[cavaliered]

[THERE'S LIKE FOUR GIRLS IN HELL TOTAL SHE DOESN'T HAVE A LOT TO PICK FROM]

Is that her name? Her sword is also hot. Practically on fire. [............. hehehehe]

[bookpapers]

[STOP MAYBE I FORGOT THAT IMPORTANT PIECE OF INFORMATION

grinning,]

You ever fight with a flaming sword before?

[not lavi trying to stretch this to two truths]

[cavaliered]

[this is an instinct that she didn't know she had but he tries to get her with a second question and she reaches to muss his hair in his face.]

That sounds like the kind of thing you'd ask when it's your turn. [uwu] Truth or dare?

[reignite]

[outsidebones]

[counterclocked]

Truth or dare?

[cavaliered]

... Uhhh, truth.

[counterclocked]

What's the coolest fight you've ever been in?

[please]

[cavaliered]

[oh she ADORES this question. it actually takes her a second.]

There was this huge fucking bone construct. Massive, with teeth in places they shouldn't be and it regenerated. Like six arms and they all looked like swords. And I had my necromancer help with looking for the weak points, and we cut the thing into shreds, and then --

[...... a pause.]

-- And then we won.

[counterclocked]

[you know what he's not going to question the pause]

So cool...

[engineers]

[ appears ]

Hello, Gideon! Can I borrow you for a second?

[cavaliered]

What? Yes. Huh?

[engineers]

Is it okay if I give you a hug?

[cavaliered]

[



there goes the hamster in her brain again]

Yes?

[engineers]

[ its lu bixing hug hours so he ducks in and gives gideon a BIG!!! HUG!!!!



he gives really good hugs. like, they are warm and nice and he's got more arm strength than you might expect???? squeeze ]

[cavaliered]

[oh noooooooooooooo

this is. this is the most physical touch i think she's ever had, actually. she goes very stiff at first, and then like... it's way too long before she very awkwardly hugs him back like she has NO IDEA where to put her hands or her body at all. this is an out of body experience.

??? ?? ?]

[engineers]

[ SHEKJH BABY GIRL

well

it's okay because hugging lin jingheng is like hugging a rock sometimes so he's very patient!!! and when she hugs him back, he gives her an extra squeeze like good job you're doing amazing.

and then he pulls back and grins at her!! ] Perfect!! Thank you!

[cavaliered]

[when he pulls back she still looks baffled, and her hands kind of flex, and then:]

Uh. Sure. [awkward thumbs up]
