WEEK TWO - MINGLE

[hellscapes]

Rise and shine, little deadlings. Congratulations on not losing your head this weekend!

Ooh...too soon? Hm. Lighten up a little, gosh! 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.

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

The countdown continues...

But out the door you go for another busy 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, Hallow's Hollow, and a new location called Subnutica. Yeah. You heard us.

The nice thing is that your emotions seem to be in tact again. You feel a little recalibrated. You find that you're no longer struggling to understand why you're feeling the way you feel, but something still feels...off. It's hard to pinpoint what exactly it is, but it's as though a part of you is missing. Maybe eventually you'll discover that your sense of direction has disappeared. Or you've lost your ability to empathize with others (if you even had that to begin with). And even moreso, some of you may discover you've lost even more important things, such as your eyesight or your sense of touch. Various losses will persist throughout the whole week, but on occasion you may find you've regained what you initially lost and have lost something else instead.

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 loss! This one is a little more open-ended for you guys to play with! This can be anything from loss of senses, loss of certain emotions, loss of skills, loss of memories, loss of your mind, etc. If you're not sure, please feel free to ask! You do not have to stick with the same loss for the whole week! You can change it up as you see fit and/or for rule of funny.

-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.

[some time after the sushi party has started, kuranosuke actually shows up! whatever was going on that made him not dress up earlier seems to have been dealt with, because now he is dressed to the nines. fun!

he's got something with him that he keeps fiddling with, but when people approach, he looks up with a grin.]

Hey! You having fun? What do you think of the sushi? Kon's a pretty good chef!

[alternatively, once he's poured himself some mediocre beer because he doesn't want to deal with the effects right now - ]

Wanna play a drinking game?

[refate]

[ oh good he's back to normal again and just FASHIONABLY LATE ]

[ontrend]

[voidshift]

Even better than I expected.

[it's a good thing he didn't bring the cat, she'd be impossible to keep away from the sushi...]

You seem like you're enjoying yourself-- this wasn't a bad idea at all.

[ontrend]

There's nothing quite like sharing a meal with everyone!

[beams]

I'm glad you like it. Sushi's great!

[voidshift]

It's not quite the same as anything we have at home-- but you were right. Maybe we should have had it.

[sometimes being around humans is worth it, actually...]

[ontrend]

Yeah, you should have! I haven't made it, myself - but I bet if you talk to Kon he'll teach you how to make your own rolls. You can totally share it with everyone back at your place once you claw your way up outta hell!

[voidshift]

We are close to the sea, it shouldn't be hard...

[100% he is taking sushi back. it probably exists in azeroth and he just hasn't encountered it.]

[firstandgreatest]

[ okay sure he will briefly stop eating sushi as fast as it can be possibly be made to entertain the idea of games. COMPETITION IS GOOD FOR THE SOUL. ]

What're we playing?!

[ontrend]

...let's do beer pong!

[i'm making the executive decision that he has stolen a couple of balls from the ballpit bar. he'll put them back later after washing them.]

You ever played that before?

[firstandgreatest]

Nope, but I can master any game in an instant and become a champion grandmaster in days ... If ya' show me how or whatever.

[ontrend]

Alright! Well, this one's pretty easy. You'll get the hang of it in no time.

[he will get beer pong set up and explain it to him!!! i assume we both know how to play though so i won't write it out.]

Does that make sense to you?

[firstandgreatest]

[ he's already standing there, arms crossed and posing like he's a cool warrior about to enter a duel to the death.

and drink some (mediocre) beer. ]

Yeah! Easy. Prepare to chug, compadre, because you're gonna get your butt kicked in no time flat.

[pathopen]

[Approaches!

Views this something with curiosity.]

What kind?

[ontrend]

A guessing game! I'll have a cup of something in each hand, but you won't be able to see what it is. It'll be either water or beer. You have to pick a hand and guess what drink it is, and if you're right, you get to drink it. If you're wrong...

[he taps the something he's holding.]

I get to do your makeup.

[pathopen]

[Oh! That's what it is.

He didn't know makeup kits looked so cute.]

Alright. Let's play.

[ontrend]

Alright!

[turns away, gets two drinks ready, and then covers them up and holds them behind his back.]

Go on, then! Guess!

[psynchronise]

[ he is absolutely going through the sushi like he’s on autopilot. thank you to the artificial beach with real fish for this gift. ]

What kind of drinking game?

[ontrend]

Two truths and a lie! Whoever gets it wrong has to take a drink. And if you get three of them wrong...

[taps the something he was holding.]

I get to do your makeup.

[psynchronise]

...

[ he looks at the make up and then at kuranosuke. ]

... That sounds like you've set yourself up for a win either way.

[ontrend]

[innocently:]

Does it?

[polyglotti]

[She is here for sushi night! Help her, she doesn't know where to start. Maybe booze is a better way to start.]

Sure! What kind of a drinking game?

[ontrend]

You ever played Flip Cup before?

[polyglotti]

I haven't, how do you play?

[ontrend]

Okay, so like, we both drink a cup of beer. Then we put it down on the table with it kind of hanging over it a bit, and try to flip it! If it lands on its side, we have to start over. Whoever gets it to flip and land upright first wins.

Aaaaaand... as an added bonus... whoever loses has to grant the winner one wish! What do you say?
