WEEK FIVE - MINGLE
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.
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.

...well, truthfully, his eyes light up considerably.
Look, this is the first time in more than a month since he saw someone of his own species. Logically he knows this is shenanigans afoot, but even if it's just for a moment...
...it's nice to see another grumpus]
no subject
he'll wave a friendly hi to filbo ]

[...you know what, there's a good chance that this is aaaaall just someone messing around and hey, no hard feelings if that happens, but there's always that tiny infinitisemal possibility this really is another grumpus who just found themselves into hell. Can't rule it out 100%]
Ah, I'm Filbo Fiddlepie! So, you have fallen into hell, and it's a terrible place where there's nothing made for you because most here are humans and kinda human shaped, but it's alright, you'll be fine, just wait until you get a chance to get out. Don't be afraid of the people around here, it's not so bad. Yeah, it's kinda strange to not see anyone like you, but it's alright, they're friendly for the most part? Except the ones that are kinda hard to approach -- but still, it's not so bad down here, you'll be fine.
[...having said all that...]
So, uh, what's going on with you, exactly?
[Because yeah, now that he said all that in the very astronomically low chance this is all genuine, he has to ask what antics are happening here and why]
no subject
Huh? What are you--
[ BUT THEN THERE'S BEES. ]
RUN FOR IT, MAN, THE BEES ARE BACK!
no subject
[Oh, crud. Well excuse him while he bolts out of here! He's not going to stick around to be stung by bees, that majorly sucks!]
