WEEK ONE - MINGLE

[hellscapes]

Rise and shine, little deadlings. Hellions? Hm, well, no matter the name you're all in the same situation...and alive! Good for you! You're doing better than some of the others.

Aw, don't be mad...that's a compliment, isn't it? Satan's grace has shined upon you and you have more opportunities to show just why you deserve an invite to the house party.

For those of you who slept in the dorm last night, when you make your way downstairs to head off for the day you'll be greeted with a new message on the white board in the common room.

Six Weeks and Four Days Until Satan's House Party!!

Just in case you needed the reminder.

But out the door you go for another fun-filled (?) week. At the dock, there's a ferry happily floating on the lava and waiting for you to climb aboard. While there are still several islands in your line of vision you can't quite see, it seems as though the ferry can now shuttle you between the college island and a new locations called Hallow's Hollow. Watch your step upon de-boarding! Wouldn't want you to slip and drown in the lava, now would we?

A new place might be a great opportunity to take your mind off of the events of last week. You're probably feeling a little angry, or sad, or frustrated. Maybe you're feeling annoyed or hopeless about the situation. But it's a little strange...even for those of you who are usually very good at keeping yourself in check, things feel a bit different now. Over the course of the week you will find yourself dealing with intense emotions, feelings that swarm over you and won't calm down until you're emotionally vulnerable with someone else. Yes, all right, some of you are already quite good at feeling your feelings, but for the rest of you? This may be something you just can't ignore no matter how hard you try.

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.

Enjoy yourselves!

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

-This week's effect is emotional overload! Characters will experience intense emotions at unprompted times (rule of funny applies) and will not be able to calm down until they share these emotions/their feelings with another character. These emotions can be good or bad.

-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.

Which thing, Kuranosuke dear? I promise I haven't had anything to drink if you wanted to try the wheel.

[ontrend]

Let's do the wheel!

[kuranosuke NO




please kill kuranosuke on the public mingle that would be so funny]

[bileygr]

...

Just checking, but have you had anything to drink today, dear?

[ JUST WANTS TO MAKE SURE OF THAT. She's not going to stop him from getting on the wheel though. Rip Kuranosuke, W1 Victim... ]

[ontrend]

Sure have, thanks for asking!

[strides on over to the wheel. kuranosuke has had a healthy(?) dose of liquid courage.]

[bileygr]

Try not to squirm too much, okay?

[ A true responsible adult would just be like oh maybe let's not but hey. Strapping him in, and then walking away, weighing the prop knives in her hand. ]

Oh, do speak early if you start feeling ill. Drinking and spinning around probably isn't the best combination.

[ As she's taking aim, god bless. ]

[ontrend]

Don't worry, you will know SO fast if I start feeling sick.

[kuranosuke is most certainly not the type to keep quiet about that.

anyway, staying still as eto takes aim!]

[bileygr]

[ She throws. She misses the wheel entirely! There's some clank noise in the bg as it hits the far wall. ]

Oops.

[ Taking aim again... throwing -- a few inches away in the slice between one of his arms and his head! ]

That's better!

[ontrend]

[well that sure just happened. RIP to that knife and anyone who was standing near the part of the wall it hit, that must have been freaky.

kuranosuke's eyes widen as the second knife sticks in the wheel.]

...whoa! You weren't kidding!

[bileygr]

Here comes another one.

[ Third knife nicks the side of the wheel. There is a cat yowl sound effect, or just imagine there is one.

Fourth one lands between Kuranosuke's legs! You're safe. ]

[ontrend]

[STOP BEING SAFE, LET KURANOSUKE GET STABBED



kuranosuke has had enough to drink that this does not even faze them]

Whoooo! Okay, best three out of five!

[bileygr]

[ STOP NO THAT'S MY FASHION BLORBO

She picks up the fifth knife. ]

Alright, last one dear!

[ Aaaand she throws it. And it lands dangerously close to Kuranosuke's head, right by the face. ]

[ontrend]

[



uh

kuranosuke actually squeaks, startled, at that.]

[bileygr]

Oh!

[ She totters over now that she's out of knives, slowing the wheel to a stop and peering in as she unstraps him. ]

Oh dear, that was a close one. I'm sorry, Kuranosuke.

[ontrend]

[ @_@ ... kuranosuke is a little unsteady after coming off the wheel, but that's to be expected after all the spinning.]

...it was pretty cool though! You didn't even nick me!

[bileygr]

[ Did you get the @/username thing... god forbid this system. ]

That's good, you had me worried for a second there with the noise you made.

[ontrend]

[yea lol]

It just surprised me a little! The knife was really close.

[bileygr]

My apologies. I'd miscalculated a little.

I'd say that's more than enough "entertainment" for our spectators.

[ontrend]

You think they'll, like, rate us on it?

[bileygr]

They're booing and cheering in live time, so I guess they are.

[ Waves at the peanut gallery!! ]

[ontrend]

Well yeah, but I was thinking like... maybe a score out of ten or something...

[bileygr]

You'll have to go up to them and ask them to rate you personally.

They are demons, though. Try not to get too offended if they only give you a six or something, okay?

[ontrend]

[LOWE I'M SAD]

They'll probably do a 666 just 'cause it's funny.

[bileygr]

[ HOLDS MY BRITT ]

That's when you act really disappointed that you got a triple-six, but you've just tricked them into giving you a rating that's over sixty times over the usual one-to-ten scale.

[ GAME THE SYSTEM ]

[ontrend]

I like the way you think!

[i'M SO SAD!!!!!!!!!!]

[bileygr]

Nobody said you couldn't keep winning, just because you're dead!

[ Opens my arms for Kuranosuke... except Britt endgame. UNLESS STILETTO MURDER then you deserve it as a treat. ]
