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.

[Bite him, he bites back. “That’s not what that meant.” He’ll bite back.]

Truth or dare?

[bileygr]

[ Okay, bite it is. Come here you little creature. ]

Hmm, truth? I've never played, and I'm a bit concerned about asking for dares from all of you.

[tearduct]

That just makes it sound like you’re a chicken.

[Peers.]

Truth for sure…?

[bileygr]

You'll not goad me into it with your words, boy.

But ask me something interesting, show me something fun, and I'll take your bait next round.

[tearduct]

[Thinks. Thinks.]

Who are three people here you think you can take in a fight?

[bileygr]

Hmm.

The nameless one, but anyone can.

Tuuri Hotakainen.

Harrowhark Nonagesimus.

[ Maybe she should add a boy? ]

Lu Bixing.

[engineers]

[ is this an insult ]

[bileygr]

[ 🖤



But also maybe not, a lot of the men here feel like they'd say they want a fight right now it she said she could take them in a fight. That's why she didn't just say Akira. ]

[tearduct]

[how did she know]

[bileygr]

[ She Can Sense Violence ]

[tearduct]

[Looks at each person in turn, nodding.]

The bar is kinda low.

[bileygr]

Look at me, who do you think I can take?

Also, your turn then.

[tearduct]

[Appraises her.]

Maybe a demon is hiding in you.

[He doesn’t explain.]

Dare.

[bileygr]

Now, why do you say that? Such a rude thing to say to a lady at a party. You're never going to get a date is that's your approach.

Hum...

Go deliver your best pickup line to somebody.

[tearduct]

I’ve seen it happen is all.

[Wanders off.

Sorry, it’s his best one.]

[bileygr]

Not bad. Could've been worse.

[ Why is Ryo out there. ]

Very well, you may dare me.

[tearduct]

[No reason.........]

Okay.

[Let him think. He scans everyone else.]

Make two of the grumpiest people here smile.

[bileygr]

Whaaat, the bar is so high, right off the bat.

[ Damb... she's looking and judging grumpiness. ]

[tearduct]

I believe in you. Maybe they need a little smile.
