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.

[cavaliered]

Yep. [dances closer, also] You going to ask Ryo?

[firstandgreatest]

[ finger gunned. ]

Haha. Dude. Gross.

[ you dont have to take this from itto. ]

[cavaliered]

She's passable.

[she says, like she's looked anywhere else all night]

[firstandgreatest]

Heroically! I was saving you from the mirror guy! Don't just pretend that part didn't happen!

is it gay if i want them all

[outsidebones]

[no but you don't have to give me them all just gimme whichever one of yours you want to tag me with.

she will come up to them and bow deeply.]

I suppose the party had more purpose than a mere masquerade? Your dress suits you well.

[engineers]

Parties like this are a lot better when they're full of people you know and like, I think.

[ affectionate...also tuuri's outfit is so cute I love this for her. ]

Have you gotten to dance yet?

[tearduct]

[YOU CAN'T BOSS HIM AROUND. He takes a few steps in place to do a little spin, but turns his head to keep his eyes on the twin.]

Yeah? You gave them to me. [Watching.] Because you smiled as soon as you saw me.

[twinsolent]

Where?

[ not being obtuse, but. not expecting rynlan to dance ]

[murderofwoes]

I literally made him up.

[ surprise..... ]

[cavaliered]

That's a given. [she's all flushed and happy and bright eyed after this, which is probably a good look on her. she reaches up to fix her hair - it has to be artfully fucked up, ok - and then wipes her hands on her pants.]

Thanks for sparing a second away from your boyfriend.

[preordain]

If I do then we can match.

[ lol.

but fine, he will stand with help and go towards him. ]

[ragesqueaks]

And you would be right! [ lmao. ] I guess we could've stayed out of the uniform whenever, but since we're on the job it makes more sense for all of us to look like a team or something. This is easier though.

[ he does not have to pilot his demon mech. ]

[engineers]

[ it is. there's that nice warm affectionate feeling again, though it flickers to something embarrassed and pleased when she says that. ]

I'll always make time for you, Gideon. Wouldn't miss it for a minute. [ honest and genuine, but, then he puts his hands on his hips and grins, pleased with himself. ] Even though I did make sure I looked cute enough that he'd be looking at me all night.

[ shameless confidence week is embarrassing. adults should be shot ]

[preordain]

[ he thinks about this.....

and nods like. very seriously. ]

[teufelshund]

Oh, let's see...

[ cue me spending half an hour trying to come up with a story ]

Ah! There was an event at this old mansion where the ballroom fireplace had actually been possessed by a Peg Lantern. No one realized it until the maid went to light it in the evening, only for it to break out of the wall and start chasing after her.

[ragesqueaks]

[ vex can do whatever she wants forever. ]

I think the twins picked a bunch of stuff and threw it all together. I'm not really used to it either, but they were working on it for the last few days. If people are having a good time, that's a really good thing.

[outsidebones]

[yes they are both being so awkward.]

It is more suiting to my needs than some dresses.

[it's goth and doesn't really show much skin.]

[firstandgreatest]

Made up things can hurt you! Like ghosts that become too real after you tell the story too many times, or really nasty rumors about your horns being smaller than you say they are.

[outsidebones]

Hmm. You may be a good choice after all.

[cryptic.]

[preordain]

[ looks up from his phone. ]

You need practice?

[cavaliered]

Ugh. Nasty. Yikes, yuck.

[she gently pushes his face away.]

[cavaliered]

[she steps on his foot. but like, affectionately.]

Yeah, you are.

[selfdestructs]

I usually only go for about five minutes, then scurry away when no one is looking.

[ gotta keep up appearances sometimes, which is exhausting, but it's fine.

oh help, he's such a nerd, and this definitely gets a laugh out of her. ]

Too bad we don't have a fedora for you to where, because that was the energy just now.

[ puts hand in is, still laughing ]

[engineers]

No, see, this is where your line is, "you look great, Lu Bixing, that'll definitely work."

[ he's laughing as he says this, though, pressing obnoxiously into the hand. wehe ]

[greatvalue]

Yoru has a keen eye!

[He is still so psyched about the mask. Help. Flapjack puffs his little chest up where he's perched on Hunter's head, showing off.]

Maybe we can find fake food for him later?

[Like. Itty bitty toy food. B*rbie food.]
