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.

[ it's confidence week so he like eats this shit up. he'd probably eat this shit up anyway but that's besides the point

anyway he does a big bow when she does it, very theatrically putting a hand on his chest as he does and then popping up. ]

Alright, I'll take it. You are officially graduating from Headmaster Lu's Dance School. [ ok. lu bixing is grinning all big and pleased, too, so. ]

[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.

[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 ]

[cavaliered]

Ugh. Nasty. Yikes, yuck.

[she gently pushes his face away.]

[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 ]

[cavaliered]

I would never encourage your sick delusions. [she teases, and flicks his forehead before pulling her hand back.]

[engineers]

[ she's so right for this. the emotional bleed feels very affectionate again before he steps back and puts a hand on his chest, and gives a silly, dramatic bow. ]

Thank you for the dance, Gideon.
