WEEK FIVE - MINGLE

[hellscapes]

Rise and shine, little deadlings. Were you able to rest easy knowing you let one mystery go unsolved? Hmm...never fear. 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.

Two 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 all of the previous islands and a new location called Animal Kingdom. A wild time awaits you. Though should you find yourselves returning to more familiar bars, you may find a new menu item awaits them!

With the new week comes new change, of course. You've probably grown accustom to this by now (or maybe you haven't even noticed the correlation of the weekly changes.) But at least you no longer have to struggle with your insecurities and flounder uselessly to prove you're #1. After all who cares, right? You obviously know you're #1. Nobody can argue with you on that one. Look at you. You're here! You're strong! You're powerful! Nothing can stand in your way this week, and you find yourself filled to the brim with all the confidence in the world. Some may even call it being over-assertive, seeing how you'll find yourself acting on inhibitions you may not before and being more assured in everything that you do. In the animal world? Some may even call you the alpha.

It almost seems as though it's simply meant to be an annoyance...to everyone else.

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 five mingle! A few notes for clarity.

-This week's effect is heightened confidence, or what we lovingly call "alpha week." While it does not have to be a consistent thing, this week your character will swing back from all of their insecurities by being filled with overconfidence (and sometimes arrogance.) Now's the time to see how bold you can be and push the envelope a little. Your hubris doesn't matter here.

-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.

[This makes him laugh.]

Don't let Blue or Sunny hear you say that. They'll have a stroke.

[He pauses to put the green bowtie around the kitten's neck. He ruffles the kitten's head. Then he reaches up to put the bowtie on Hex's wrist nub from below for right now.]

I'm shocked you're not putting him in a leather, fingerless glove.

[He looks Gideon over as if he has even an inch of fashionista in his life. Thinking.]

I'm not great at this, but we can look around.

[cavaliered]

[she pulls herself up to her feet and wanders over.]

I found this earlier. [gestures to this, which she's situated over the back of a suit.]

[voidshift]

Maybe you can give me an opinion on accessories. I've got the basics and hair covered, but...

[he's showing kuranosuke a couple of outfits, but like, slightly sneakily. like he is trying to ensure this is a surprise later for at least one person who's probably around here somewhere.]

[onlythans]

I have it on good authority that it's a favorite among academics. Understated on a frontal pass, but with an intriguing surprise waiting for the onlooker once one begins to walk away.

[Context: Thancred's elf boyfriend from home is a big nerd who dresses in robes with a back like this. And then asks you if you like his clothes.]

I think it would suit you quite well. And certainly that Lin would approve.

[ontrend]

Whoa, Yoru, I love it!

[kuranosuke beams and puts the mask on.]

I'll find a dress that looks fantastic with it. Thanks a ton!

[cavaliered]

Good. [she mutters at that first part, because she's rude. she will make up for this by petting jiji devilcat.]

Anyway, don't give him ideas. He's a fucking harlot. [this - if a bone hand could laugh, that's what hex is doing.] What are you planning on? Something with your tits out again?

[refate]

[ much better. yoru leans back from going through masks, holding up a bigger one with bigger eye holes. ] Maybe this will fit Filbo!

It could. Bring it over, buddy, we'll see if it works. Should we see if they have fancy sashes for you? A stand alone collar with cravat?

[ontrend]

Hell yeah, this is what I love doing!

[he's happy as a clam, tbh.]

You excited for the ball, Hunter?

[engineers]

[ well it's alpha week and those are the magic words

so he claps his hands together. ]

- Why not! Might as well, right? Will you help me find something, Thancred?

[eleusinia]

How could I say no to my favorite little robot?

[ before persephone limps over and pats yoru's head, kon gets a friendly wave. sup ]

[voidshift]

[ryn is keeping the outfit preparations at least a little bit sneaky, it seems. you can ask if you're curious, but more importantly: he is busy dressing up his cat.

she's currently wearing this, as he takes a photo of her.]

Look at you- this might be the one.

[refate]

[ he puts the mask on his face, holding it there with both hands and just going waaaah!

kon scrunches his face up. ] They have pet and robot-sized clothes, so.

[ontrend]

[this time he offers three different options!]

Let me know what you do and don't like best so I can narrow this down for you!

[tearduct]

[JD sits there and makes biscuits gently on what's beneath the paws. Akira glances at the green bowtie, then at the kitten. Then at Lu Bixing.]

I think you'd probably look good in anything. [Earnest.] I dunno. I was told black and gold might be good. So maybe what they showed me. I could put JD in a gold one, I guess, to match...

[He looks over Lu Bixing again.]

Are you gonna match with the commander?

[refate]

Waaaah, Pretty Percy needs a good mask, too, like Kura-chan!

[ :stressed: oh no he can't fail her. yoru scampers off, and it looks like he's... collecting numerous masks, actually. ]

Hey. How's your foot doing?

[voidshift]

Just rotate them, then, let it wear all of them at some point.

[cat fashion show]

[polyglotti]

[Me, figuring out I can take off my glasses to read with dilated eyes.]

Oh come on, it would be fun! I think we can even find you a cloak as long as yours.

[refate]

[ oh me too tbh ]

Yay! Hex dances really good!

[ this is so charming send help. yoru at least has the good sense to not try and spin this bone hand, careful with him, but also does a little dip of a bow with the tadaaaa. ]

[onlythans]

Well, I'm hardly any sort of fashion maven, but I can certainly advise as to what I would favor.

[And all of his opinions are great opinions so there you go! He digs into the racks a bit before eventually reemerging with a halter vest. Truly the mullet of formalwear: business in the front, party in the back.]

Try this — though you might find it a little better suited to a private occasion, rather than a public one.

[voidshift]

Careful with that, you're going to be a hazard to others.

[he's taking a sip from his own drink, watching popcorn. adventurous noodle...]

[refate]

You're welcome! [ chirpy ] Hana-chan found a mask! Yoru will be very handsome.

[ kon reaches over yoru to pick up something, holding it up for hunter to see. ]

[tearduct]

[???? His expression is a little surprised at the mutter. Hmm.

He tips his head to look up at Hex even though he cannot see this bony finger.]

Hey. If his fingers and my chest look good out, they should be out. [He puts a hand on one of his hips.] I think a regular suit will be fine, but maybe I'll wear something sheer under it just for you.

Are you gonna wear the cool makeup? You should.

[polyglotti]

Hi Yoru! What do you think fits me? Of and puck one out for him too.

[She points to Zel. He WILL participate today.]

[refate]

[ yoru, beaming. and weirdly good at this mask picking. he's mostly going for things that he knows about people as he does this, from his memory banks. ]

We really can't be. Part of me wonders if I could've traded my arm for one.

[refate]

[this seems to be the trend. kon also is surprised with each one. ]

Yay! [ holds it up less hesitantly ]
