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.

-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.

[Gideon, he likes you, and therefore —]

Well, that depends. Do you want to win?

Obviously. [winning is her middle name, and also above and beyond, apparently.]

Then let's round up two other people to play against us.

[HE IS HERE FOR VICTORY]

[she is SO RAZZED by this. she shoves his shoulder like a bro and grins so widely her face might crack in two.]

Fuck yeah. [she peers across the bar. who else is a lightweight that isn't gideon.]

In the meanwhile, how is your hand-eye coordination? Can you hit what you aim at, or are you more the hack and slash and pray sort?

[How did he end up bros with a redheaded girl both taller and younger than him. Truly this is the best timeline.]

[to answer this, she grabs one of the ping pong balls, and throws it. it ally-oops right into one of the cups across the table. she doesn't know that this is how you play, she's just got very good hand-eye coordination. it's the only thing she's got going for her.]

They don't call me a cavalier for nothing.

I knew I had a good feeling about you.

[He says, as he grabs a second of the balls and mimics her shot, which also rattles neatly into the cup.]

Partners, then.

[she whoops! nice shot!!]

Partners. [insert that handshake meme here]

[ he quietly bets on the jock lesbian and the old man (“he’s the same age as you dat—“) the old man.

the bet is three slightly damp beer mats. ]

[i can't even dispute this when thancred himself is convinced he's an old man so]

[ ah the ripe old anime wizened old man age of (looks at my notes) 30 ]

[ no one has to kill thancred or date they just crumble naturally into dust ]

[ studies from afar because he also needs to learn and also wants to win ]

Joining us, then?

[he sees you creepin bucky]

[ watching gideon before shrugging, ]

Sure.

Good. Then once we find you a partner we'll be ready to play.

[considers a minute]

You're...Bucky, aren't you?

That's me, alright. I see my reputation precedes me.

Difficult not to, when it's all laid out on these tomestones.

[they're smartphones thancred]

You stood out. We seem to have some interests in common.

Huh. That so?

[ Bucky squints a bit, trying to remember the profiles, but. there are just. so damn many. He ends up putting his drink on the table so he can pull out his phone and fumble his way to the profiles and read Thancred's. ]

...I guess we do.

[BUCKY THAT'S NOT REASSURING GIVEN THANCRED'S PROFILE.....................]

Any concerns you might be getting in over your head right now?

Hey, I'm saying there's some overlap. Who said that was the part I agreed with?

Who said it wasn't? Why don't you tell me otherwise, if that's the case?

You really want me to go through your profile and list off what I agree with or not, item by item?

Or you could mention the parts you don't.
