WEEK FOUR - MINGLE

Rise and shine, little deadlings. The heavens shine down upon you as you live to see another day...haha.
It's not just the heavens and the stars, though. 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.
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, Memory Lane and a new location called Gigantica. It's difficult to miss, after all! Though should they find themselves returning to more familiar bars, they may find a new menu item awaits them!
But the best part about this week is that those pesky TVs are no longer around making their appearance and showcasing your most intimate memories. No more secrets revealed, no more falling through random holes in the ground and bruising yourself painfully, no more awkward situations you have to explain. For now it's just you and the things you want to share. Well...mostly. It's a little hard to feel confident about yourself after everything that's happened, isn't it? After all, there's always going to be someone better than you. Someone smarter. Someone more put together. Normally these things may not bother you, but this week it seems that all of those pesky little insecurities that plague your mind are amped up to ten. It isn't always daunting. Sometimes you're able to remember the things you like about yourselves, but for the most part? You might need a little convincing to break yourself out of the cycle of uncertainty.
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 four mingle! A few notes for clarity.
-This week's effect is heightened insecurities While it does not have to be a consistent thing, this week your character will experience their insecurities amplified in a way that they can't always ignore. These can be things such as lack of confidence in their strength, their talents, their relationships with other people, things they happen to dislike about themselves, things they wish they could change, things they envy from other people, etc. Feel free to be creative about what your character would personally find to be something they're insecure about.
-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.

TUESDAY... ✨
[ damn, this place just full of a bunch of sad bitches? time for there to be a booth to give everybody some kind of serotonin. In honor of booths past, run by our dearly departed (save date who is still with us)... here is another.
kon and d.va are standing in the new park with some homemade stickers, yoru waving a little flag excitedly from the build a bub accessories like he's trying to flag people down for these shenanigans. ]
Hello, friend! Are you blorbo? [ what. kon looks down at him, raising a brow with his right side hidden under his haori. ]
Don't confuse anyone, Yoru. We're the ones doing the explanations.
You are a blorbo, Yoru! [ she puts a "blorbo" sticker on his forehead. yoru looks up at her like :pikashook: ]
[ dare you ask what this booth is and what a blorbo entails? dare you get government assigned yet another label in hell? ]

also tuesday girl help
It's going to take the rest of our stay to get enough, at this rate.
[A second, much taller nerd is shaking a different tree with a lot less aggression, but just as much force!! Childe frowns as a particularly large leaf lazily floats down to the ground. WHAT IS THIS. THIS ISN'T A BRANCH.]
I know, but if we don't fix it, someone's bound to notice eventually.
[lmao sucks to suck.]
You don't have to remind me. [More of a petulant grumble than anything, but he goes back to shakin' - only for something to fall out with a thunk on the other side. Hm?? He leans around the tree to take a look, but he doesn't have to because it's only a matter of seconds before angryass bees start flying out from the hive and zipping around with killing intent. HE'S JUST YELLING NOW WITH HIS TINY INSECURITIES.]
Why can't I ever do anything right—!!
[GODDAMMIT SCARAMOUCHE WHY HAVE YOU DONE THIS!!! Unfortunately they are close enough together that the bees are apparently considering them one and the same, so Childe just acts on instinct, grabs his arm, and starts RUNNING. Hope those tiny little legs can keep up.]
We don't deserve to fix our mistakes...!
[Oh? What's that? Someone in the nearby vicinity? Well, it's too bad this isn't actual Animal Crossing with homing missile bees, because THESE idiots, and their beefellows, are headed STRAIGHT FOR YOU. Think fast!!!]

also ALSO tuesday
landing with a huge thud in your local garden is … itto, holding onto a bundle of something. there’s a slightly smaller thud as a coffee mug drops onto itto’s head and lands in his lap that says #1 Necromancer, but he’s too busy sneezing incredibly loudly to even notice quite yet.
it isn't only itto, though. there is a much smaller person in his grasps struggling fruitlessly to get free. the person has a small t-shirt on their head that reads "I Rock." finally, they manage to get free. it's harrow, breaking free and brushing stone and dirt off herself, whirling on itto.]
It's bad enough to jump yourself, but I don't see why you brought me into it!
It was-- [ he sneezes. again. ] The only freakin' way down! [ itto gives another sneeze. ] Oh hey, I got a cool mug.
[ harrow reaches into her pocket and throws something at him. ]
HEY, THAT'S [ SNEEZING HARDER] NO WAY TO REPAY A BLOOD DEBT, DUDE.

MINI-EVENT
And you know, like, you're totally free to blow them off. You don't have to board the ferry and head to Gigantica to see what that's all about. But for those of you who are curious, when you venture off of the ferry and over to the large park you will find there appears to be a whole new coliseum erected in the center, sized to all of you.
Hanging from different banners and billboards are a variety of posters advertising for Satan's house party again. There are a few tables off to the side as well containing items such as water bottles, sweatbands, towels, stopwatches, pompoms, streamers and more. There's also a table full of drinks! But these are all drinks from the bar on this island, unfortunately. Finally, above it all hangs another banner:
Which team are you on? Doesn't matter! Take part in today's events and do your best to beat your competition! There's a sport for everyone, and if not...? Make up your own in the freestyle event! Goooo team!
It appears today's event is a sports festival of some sort that's been set up throughout the coliseum. There's all kinds of equipment in various areas and everything has been organized for you to participate however you'd like. There are solo event, duo events and team events for your perusal, such as:
-Three-legged race
-Relay race
-Bread-tasting contest
-Candy-making contest
-Dodgeball
-Water balloon toss
-Interpretive ribbon dancing
-Baseball
-Obstacle course complete with climbing wall, rope swings, and army-crawling
As the sign says, you may also freestyle an event of your choice! Don't see a sport on here that you want to play? Make one up and grab other players!
And the best part? You really, really don't have to follow the rules here.

Hello Date! It's Uriel... yes, though our arrival was... something, we have made it here fine. It's actually a bit more interesting on this side. But I do miss everyone else. Though I try to observe as much as I can, I don't suppose anything interesting has happened since? It's really difficult to hear you guys so, some signs are always welcomed!

...it's a thursday, and there's a ferry pulling up to the dock at gigantica. it's big! just like everything else here! if you're on the island already, you may just spot a small form disembarking from it - meaning, falling onto the docks.
kuranosuke, who seems to be wearing some kind of uniform with mid-thigh boots and above-elbow gloves, lands facedown and just.
does not get up.
he groans.]
God, I need a drink.
[his words come out muffled because he has not raised his head.]

The sleeves of his coat are absolutely shredded, and while there doesn't appear to be much blood, there is a faint discoloration along the edges of some of those tears. One pant leg is similarly torn up. There are splotches and smears of blood over the front of the coat. It's hard to say if he's actually injured at all. How do you wound a rock...?
There's a hollow look in his one visible eye as he stops next to Kuranosuke and stares out at the island they've landed on.]

...until they don't. At 11pm, a cheery tone plays from the radio app on your phone as a ripple of shadows pass over the islands. You're free to move a limited amount, but you'll find that all doors are locked and you're stuck in one area.
It's only when the clock strikes midnight that anything changes. Whether you're still awake and partying, or whether you're dreaming a little dream, a wall of fire erupts before your eyes and you're plunged straight into darkness. A dreamless sleep awaits you until Friday morning.
Sleep well, little deadlings.
