WEEK THREE - MINGLE

[hellscapes]

Rise and shine, little deadlings. Did you oversleep this morning? Well, that's all right. After all...accidents happen!

Some of you are so touchy, huh? Lighten up a little! 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.

Four 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 Gehenna University, Hallow's Hollow, Subnutica, and a new location called Memory Lane. Sounds pretty sweet, doesn't it?

On the bright side, it seems you're no longer lacking things (except for maybe hope. Haha.) Your skills are in tact, your senses are recalibrated, and you remember everything there is to know about yourself and this place you've come to know as home. However...well. Perhaps you'll come to realize that you remember a little too much this week. At any time when you're with another person, you may find yourselves being swallowed up by the ground beneath you and falling straight into a dark and empty room. A huge screen mounted on the wall sits and waits for you to acknowledge it. Even if you don't, it's only a matter of time before one of your memories streams on display. When the show's over, you'll be booted back out to where you began with no rhyme or explanation.

It isn't always a hole in the ground, either. You may be going about, minding your own business, and suddenly that same screen will pop up behind you and begin to play without warning. And the best part? You have no control over what others will see.

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 three mingle! A few notes for clarity.

-This week's effect is memshare! You've been waiting for it, it's memory-sharing week finally. You do not have to thread out a memshare for every interaction you have with another person, but you are free to do as many as you like. You may thread one memory per person per thread, or do a back and forth chain amongst yourselves for multiple memories. Memories can be viewed via first person experiencing or via third person viewing, whichever is most fun for you. You can also pick whether you get stuck in a hole with someone until you both share or if the screen appears at the most inconvenient moments around the islands.

-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.

[ good god

well, okay! this is a lot!! this is fine! but at this point, we're starting to expect people getting hurt, so, when this terrible yelling ferry comes in lu bixing's on his way over with what looks like whatever remains of some costume shreds to cut into bandages and, yeah! shit's bad. oh god. wE

WE'RE GOING TO YORU AND KON FIRST GOD but he's hurrying over, and very gently asking - ] Yoru, can I see that? [ for the medical kit, and then, calling out: ] We need blankets for Harrowhark, and - as many hands on deck as we can for everyone else, hurry.

[outsidebones]

[too late she is dead for real rest in peace queen 🙏]

[awol]

[ crouches and puts coat over because damn he doesn't have time to go get blankets and ppl are already doing that

no resting in peace :vvvvvvvvvv ]

[outsidebones]

[that's probably smart because her teeth are chattering.]

[awol]

[ nooooooo... stop... siz what is with ur characters and freezing to death. ]

Just hang in there... I know you can...

[ dummy (harrow didnt choose 2 go on the cyoa) dummy, he looks so mad. ]

[outsidebones]

[she hangs in there, frozenly.]

[hardrocklife]

[zel's just kind of standing dumbly here (and incidentally, stylin') for the first couple minutes, but hearing that, he lifts his head and nods.]

Blankets... On it.

[He'll run off to get some!]

[hardrocklife]

[well. he's actually pretty fast and he comes back with some blankets!]

[awol]

[ deposits jacket with, it is appropriately warm. ]

Where do you want my help.

[ worried frown. ]

[engineers]

I'm not - I only have basic training, there's not that much I can do without a medical capsule, but - we need to get Harrowhark somewhere warm as soon as possible. Get her your coat, and I'll look after Kon. Chandra's arm looks bad, from here, let's make sure he doesn't bleed out.

I don't know how many supplies we have, but we need to try and use them as judiciously as possible.

[awol]

Of us both, you can probably convince him to hold still long enough for a tourniquet. [ bad! ] I'll try.

[refate]

[ yoru looks up almost pleadingly at lu bixing, thrusting the first aid kit at him as far as his tiny arms can do. ] Please! Our friends!

[ behind him, kon is just - vibing. he's probably dissociating a little. ]

[engineers]

[ he will take it and very quickly rub his little robot head. ]

They're going to be okay. Why don't you go into sleep mode for a little while? When you wake up they'll be just fine.

[ ish. what's the worst besides this fucking BONE ARM there's not much we can do about that one. to kon: ] Kon, look at me. I can't do anything about your arm, but hold still and let us try and take care of everything else, but I need you to stay conscious. Alright?

[refate]

Okay... [ he's very reluctant about it, but yoru moves to cling onto kon on the non-bone side and smush his face in. there's a little whirr, and then silence - he goes into sleep mode standing up.

refocusing, kon makes an affirmative noise. his voice is very dry and not in the tone kind of way. lu bixing will also realize as he gets closer that he's almost insanely warm, broaching on feverish, but doesn't seem to be experiencing the symptoms of fever otherwise. ] Arm's toast. I know. Just gonna have to bandage around it and remove it from the socket.

[engineers]

We can do that - we'll need to get you somewhere a little more sterile.

[ the best that they can anyway. god. he is not a doctor and really desperately missing space medicine right now. ] Can you stand up, or do you need me to carry you?

[refate]

[ taking a very deep breath through his nose, and then exhaling it out through a hiss as he tries to coast through the pain. wish we had space medicine! ]

Prob'ly need help.

[engineers]

Okay. Let me treat what I can right now, and we'll get you back somewhere to get cleaned up. Alright?

[ he will do that. i guess. gestures in like basic medical training im not smart im not playing a doctor until next spring

but, as he is, coming in close, he says very softly - ] ...It's going to be okay, Kon. You're okay.
