superhell | WEEK ZERO MINGLE - Party Games Edition

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.

[This sounds like it should be fake but it also sounded like an extremely specific and weaponized truth at the same time]

On purpose?

Yes, I've heard that sometimes someone might take extreme measures like allowing themselves to be infected with a sickness in order to seem weak so that an enemy might prey on them in order to overcome the enemy on their own with no warning, which is, while an out of the box plan, incredibly stupid at the same time.

[ extremely specific and weaponized truth is correct ]

[

Thinks about it]

Did it work?

Yes.

[Shrugs and toasts him]

If you ignore the part where it took him weeks to get his physique back to normal.

But it did in the end! [This CR has swerved off-course help]

[ HELP ]

He looked a sponge someone had emptied all of the water out of!

You guys don't have anything to help with the healing? [They don't get good food OR convenient healing abilities? Damn]

Not really. I mean, it should have really killed him, but...

[ :/ :/ :/ ] ...The things we do have can help speed it along, though, so it didn't take as long for him to get back to normal.

[He hums, taking another sip of his drink, this time just because.]

Do you have any elemental abilities at all, where you're from?

[ shaking his head. ]

No - to be honest, I'd never considered anything even remotely like that as anything but fairy tales, until we arrived here. Why do you ask?

Just wondering. It seems like it's more rare than I would've expected it to be. [Since the Traveler can use elemental abilities without a Vision, and they're (probably) the only Outlander he knows...]

Well, I could counter you with the same question! Do you all have neural network powered mechs, in your world?

[ squints in genshin ]

[Well

Hilariously the answer is technically yes

But Childe is the wrong person to answer that question so instead he taps his chin, looking thoughtful.]

I'm not sure. What is a "mech"?

(no subject)

You do what you have to in order to get a job done.

[ toasts back. just a little. a tiny lift. ]

[EXACTLY... damn can't believe LJH needs to join the Fatui now]

I prefer direct confrontation myself, though. Nothing beats a good battle.

Some situations require more nuance.

Otherwise I'd agree.

[ god what he would give for like 10 mechs right now ]

Those are always the most boring ones.

[Childe would LOVE mechs don't ever let him near one]

There's plenty of "excitement" to be had with pirates. Don't worry.

[ im letting him near one ]

[Pirates... he sighs wistfully...]

I never did get to spar the captain. [He didn't get to spar his captain either but that one is less surprising]

Get restless easily?

Something like that. [Sure close enough]

[ uh oh stinky. ]

What do you do for work.

[Typically he would answer this in a specific way but since his deets are on his profile...]

I serve Her Majesty the Tsaritsa.
