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.

[ oh this is the cutest thing ever im sorry lu bixing thinks this is adorable. he's coming over and reaching over and ruffling lavi's hair because he can and then also ... well... he'd wink at uriel but he can't so he just grins at her instead. ]

Now, this is cute! Do me, do me!

[ everyone

already knows but okay ]

[reignite]

[ he could wink anyways :/ ]

Matchmaking wouldn't really work here...

[ IT CAN'T BE DONE. ] But, we can use the Affection Meter! Who do you wanna use it with?

[engineers]

[ he

only has one eye ]

Well, with Lin, of course, but - not even platonically? Uriel, you're breaking my heart.

[reignite]

[ HE CAN STILL WINK WITH ONE EYE ]

Well if you want to... but first things first! Alright, Affection Meter, what do you think? Lu Bixing and Lin Jingheng?

[ it brightens up, making a cute startup sound and starts to rapidly course through numbers before


DING! ]

...Ah! It's so high!!

[engineers]

[ hands on his cheeks and watching this so intently and then he just cooes: ] Oh... really?


[ WHY DOES HE SOUND SO SURPRISED ]

[awol]

[ lu bixing he's right fucking here.

but also looks at uriel like "do you see this guy" /affectionate ]

[reignite]

Really!! It never lies!

[ sorry sir, she's also cooing. because this is so pure and cute. ]

[awol]

[ he blows some smoke Away ]

I've seen three people try to walk away. I thought it was more painful.

[ u guys gonna let a lil machine humiliate u all? gosh ]

[engineers]

Haha, Lin, you like me. ♥

[awol]

[ he punches him in his good shoulder (gently. ish.) ]

[engineers]

That's embarrassing -ow.

[ deserved but also he's so happy now ] You go try it with someone else! Do one with Hunter! Or Hana! Or Childe? You guys seem like good friends.

[engineers]

What an amazing piece of technology, Uriel!

[ its not but he supports you and also he's happy now ] Have you done any for yourself, yet? What about me and you? Platonically!

[reignite]

Thank you! I was really lucky to stumble upon it... it's not the exact same model but, it's close enough!

[ it is amazing!!! ] Oh, yes, let's! Let's try!

[ GLEAM GLEAM, it's rapidly coursing through numbers again annnnd




DING! ]

---Eh?

[ IS... IS IT REALLY THAT LOW?! ]

[engineers]

[ NO ]

Scientific principle says you should test more than once to ensure accurate results.

[reignite]

But that's not how it works...!

[ YOU CAN'T JUST REDO. she is so sad.... their low affection... is it telling lies?! ]

[bookpapers]

[STOP HIS HAIR]

-- Hey, I spent so long combing it flat!!

[NOOOOO]

[engineers]

You look very handsome! I'm impressed, but, you know, the tousled look is much more popular anyway.

[ lu bixing is also rocking the touseld look so you know ] Are you just diagnosing, or playing along?

[bookpapers]

[HMPH well bixing does have a point...]

I'm doing whatever Uri needs me to do! I'm her helper for today!

[it's not simping if respect is also involved]

[engineers]

Well, that was nice of you. Was this booth her idea, then?

[ this has uriel written all over it but that's okay. ]

[bookpapers]

Yeah!

[lavi said okay because he could sense the chaos]

The affection meter's hers too! I'm just here for moral support.

[engineers]

How helpful!

[ what a good kid. ] And you're matchmaking, too? Have you had any luck so far?

[bookpapers]

[HMMM]

Not yet! I think we need more support on that front... We need... data!

[he looks expectantly at bixing]

[engineers]

Well, it looks like you're doing well gathering it so far.

[ he's coming to scooch next to lavi and watch The Crowd TM ]

Tell me what observations you're making to make your decisions. What do you see?

[bookpapers]

[He'll scooch closer to Bixing... gently putting a hand in front of his mouth as he whispers to him, just between two eyepatch bros]



I think Chandra likes Uriel.
