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.

[Wowie. Skinned NPCs... King specifically gets a tiny dessert put down in front of him.]

Your boss let you out of the costumes?

[teambalance]

It would look stupid to show up to a fancy party like this in our uniforms. And there's no way he expected those two to throw something like this without dressing up.

[ a very pointed look at the twins. ]

[greatvalue]

He had you wear those weird costumes for six weeks, man. How would I know what he expects?

[he

also glances at the twins. they are twins. wowie.]

... But I bet they would've started a riot if Satan said no, huh?

[teambalance]

They're just our uniforms. But yeah, they're totally stupid.

[ IS KANADE DEFENSIVE ABOUT THAT OR NOT? ]

I would have helped them, you know? I totally would. Boss is great, but he did owe them.

[greatvalue]

[He has just accepted that the answer is yes but also no.]

... Yeahhh, what happened last week wasn't great. And I don't think trading shifts and letting them throw a party completely makes it for it, either.

[Satan should just do what the twins want forever from now on, tbh.]

[teambalance]

It doesn't. ♪

But that's between them to figure out.

[greatvalue]

Then they better get a good deal out of it.

Are you enjoying the party, anyway?

[teambalance]

It's a hassle being around so many people at once. I keep feeling like I'm supposed to be entertaining everyone and making people smile.

[ disgusting. ]

[greatvalue]

Pretty sure nobody expects you to do anything like that, considering...

[y'all technically still personal demons.]

[teambalance]

Yeah, obviously I know that! It's just a gut feeling that won't go away.

[twinsolent]

He owed us. Besides, what's the point of throwing a party if we can't get dressed up too?

[greatvalue]

We had a party the first week we spent here and you didn't get dressed up.

[those were party games and should not be counted...]

[twinsolent]

It was in a college town sticky bar. Very different vibes.

[greatvalue]

You didn't specify that the party needed to have... [air quotes] "Vibes."

[twinsolent]

Well, it's obvious, isn't it? We didn't make you guys dress up for that one.

[greatvalue]

But it was a party. Was it a pointless party then?

[twinsolent]

No, you guys really needed the practice.

[greatvalue]

But we didn't have to dress up for it, which is my point. So will Satan's party have the "vibes," too?

[ragesqueaks]

Blue and Sunny would've argued a lot if he didn't. [ but yaaay dessert! there is a tailwag. ] But it's a lot better this way.

[greatvalue]

... I get the feeling they would've staged a coup if he said no, actually.

[Very funny that he finds Sunny slightly terrifying.]

Does this mean you get to stay out of the costume from now on?

[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. ]

[greatvalue]

[The twins should stage a coup anyway, tbh. Golden end.

He squints.]

If you could've taken it off whenever, then why didn't you guys pick literally any other kind of uniform?

[ragesqueaks]

[ honestly fair and valid. ]

Hey, this wasn't my idea. I was one of the last ones hired.

[greatvalue]

Not saying it was. I'm just surprised none of you suggested something less... [vague hand gesture] that.

[Hooty cousin cosplay.]

[ragesqueaks]

I guess at the time we didn't think it was gonna be that annoying. Or that we'd have to wear them that much. We don't have to be dressed when we're not talking to you guys.

[ and now some of the demons just stopped caring entirely. ]
