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.

[The phone does not stop him, it never did. He uses a single finger to poke the pointy end of the halo a few times.]

[preordain]

[



he tries to swat his finger away ]

[tearduct]

[Draws the hand back.





Then reaches out to do it again.]

[preordain]

[ he just is going to grab akira's hand and hold onto it. stop. ]

Enough.

[tearduct]

[Raises his brows.]

Get off your phone.

[preordain]

Why? I'm just sitting here.

[ he doesn't want to people watch because he doesn't like any of you. ]

[tearduct]

[He actually goes tch.]

Stop just sitting there then. Get up.

[preordain]

I did just get stabbed a few days ago, you know.

[ let him rest from his execution injuries..... ]

[tearduct]

[Hmph.]

I'll dance with someone else then.

[preordain]

Is that how quickly you abandon your best friend...

[tearduct]

My best friend won't get off his phone...

[preordain]

[ UGH

he holds a hand out. ]

If you injure me then you're going to owe me.

[tearduct]

[Lightly takes the hand to pull Ryo up and toward himself.]

I'm not gonna injure you. You're probably going to take out one of my eyes. Come on.

[preordain]

If I do then we can match.

[ lol.

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

[tearduct]

Don't say it like it's a good thing.

[STOP.

He leads Ryo out to some open space, then faces Ryo again. Puts a hand on Ryo's hip while holding the other hand. He does not know what he's doing, but he's too confident to stop now. Sashay...]

Your outfit is nice.

[preordain]

[ he glances down ]

Thanks. Are you wearing mesh?

[ he does not put his other hand on akira's shoulder because he is going to poke at the mesh first. ]

[tearduct]

[He also glances down.]

Yeah? It shows off my muscles.

[HELP]

Do you like it?

[preordain]

[ it was better when you were insecure actually. ]

Hm? It's not like I haven't seen your chest before.

[ hmmmmmm. he is seriously thinking it over. ]

Yeah.

[tearduct]

[HELLO. DON'T TAKE FOREVER TO THINK IT OVER.]

Heh. Tasteful boobs.

[Why is he a twelve year old boy.

Anyhow, he forces Ryo's hand onto his shoulder so he can start dancing. Even if it's not good dancing, it's an attempt to mimic dancing with someone better from earlier.]

[preordain]

[ he allows this for a moment.

before ryo sighs and just goes to correct their steps. ]

Follow me.

[tearduct]

[Dramatically raises both brows at Ryo leading. Alpha... He manages to grin slightly.]

I knew you knew how to dance.

[preordain]

Of course I do. You know, I did have an active life.

[ he is not saying he likes it but he knows how to do it.

he glances over to the rest of the crowd. ]

Are you enjoying yourself?

[tearduct]

Sure.

[Unconvinced he would use the word active to describe just how smart Ryo happens to always be.

He keeps looking at Ryo, watching Ryo watch everyone else.]

I guess so. Are you?

[preordain]

Not really.

[ he'll answer honestly enough, still looking away. ]

But I don't usually enjoy things.

[tearduct]

[Hmm.]

There has to be somethings you like, though. Right?
