WEEK SIX - MINGLE

[hellscapes]

Rise and shine, little deadlings. Man. Someone out there really pulled the wool over your eyes, huh? Well, 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.

One Week 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 Frosty Peaks. Better bundle up. Though should you find yourselves returning to more familiar bars, you may find a new menu item awaits them!

The bright side of starting a new week is that your confidence levels even out back to normal. (Well, actually, maybe that's not so great for some of you. Damn. Sorry.) Your insecurities are still manageable and you have once again regained a healthy sense of hubris rather than completely losing your minds. Your memories are still private, and you haven't lost anything either either. Maybe you've caught a break this week...?

Haha, psych. But it was fun to think about while it lasted, huh? For some of you, it may be hard to notice at first, especially if you're already a hands-on sort of person. But over the course of the week, you will find that you'll struggle with the urge to touch the people around you. A desire to hold hands, hug, or even cuddle may strike at the most overwhelming and inappropriate times, and you'll just have to deal with that. Sometimes the touch between two of you is more subtle. For some of you, it might be a little too intense. There's no saying when and how it may hit you and who may be around when it does.

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 six mingle! A few notes for clarity.

-This week's effect is touch week, or what we lovingly call "cuddle week." What a nice thing to happen when the new location is cold as balls. Characters will find themselves struck with the urge to touch each other ranging from casual touches to full-on signs of affection. It's not on a sliding scale based on CR, so use this as an opportunity to play around and see what happens when your characters are combined.

-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.

[ because, like a to-do list we get it done.

i mean what? no it's because it's their initials.

anyways, lin jingheng is here and he's chugging one drink before tossing the cup away. he turns on a nailgun and aggressively gets to work. if anyone gets close: ]

Touch our shit and I'll nail your hand down. I'll give you one chance to get back to your own work.

[ in any case, he is grabbing anything they need and is getting started on some structural repairs. this is probably where he'll live, strengthening their cabin so it doesn't mcfucking blow over in a storm or anything. he's not assigning d.va or thancred anything because d.va is a hard worker and thancred ate shit last week on cyoa so he won't bully him. ]

[failbo]

[Filbo was coming to offer assistance if they needed it later, heard that, nodded, and just...]

Sounds like you have it all under control, hahaha...

[And backs away]

[selfdestructs]

Dads are very serious about their home improvement. Don't mind him.

[ filbo is too good for them anyways ]

[failbo]

I can tell! Serious business going on here.

[........]

Wait, he's a dad?

[The profile mentions sugar daddying but Filbo is pretty sure that doesn't count]

[awol]

[ oh he. stops pumping the nail gun for a second and actually lowers it because like.

filbo is fine, i guess. ]

If you've come to help... that's fine. But if you're a spy, you'll be treated like one.

[failbo]

Don't worry, my--the cabin for my team is intact and not burning or needing stuff. We have it all under control, that's why I can afford to wander around.

[Rynlan is stealing blankets from others, but Filbo willfully chooses to ignore that, do whatever you want, Rynlan]

No spying, just...generally interested in people not freezing to death.

[selfdestructs]

[ she is standing there, a lil pink hard hat on, and a drink in her hand, just watching him go coocoo bananas. ]

Oooooh, that was definitely a nat 20 on that intimidation roll. Good job Lin! No one will mess with our cabin now.

[ when there's an opportunity, she's going to place a hard hat on lin's head and also thancred's. no head injuries please!! ]

[awol]

[ HELP D.VA YOUR LITTLE PINK HARD HAT.

he accepts this hard hat with a grimace because it's so uncool and he's a big tough space commander, he doesn't need a helmet. but... he acquiesces because this is snow bunny so. he pats her shoulder warmly. ]

Can only hope now that they know what's good for them.

Want to get started on reinforcing the windows?

[selfdestructs]

[ safety first, commander!! ]

We do have scary dog privileges, so we'll be fine. [ nods!!

salutes!! ]

Leave it to me, sir!!

[ she's gotta work on reinforcing the frame, so that glass doesn't just fly everywhere, and honestly...she'll probably just board them up, but nicely. ]

[awol]

When people don't fear the bark you have to show them you bite.

[ vrm vrm, but he'll pass her some nice wood planks to cover up the windows carefully and neatly! he will even check her work because he's nosy and can't help but be a bit of a control freak. pls calm down, sir (no). ]

Not bad.

[selfdestructs]

Feral.

[ wow, thanks! she is doing a good job okay!! pls chill. ]

Thanks~ This is a lot easier than building a hoverbike, makes me wish I'd taken woodshop in school.

[awol]

[ you KNOW he has no chill. but he does nod firmly. ]

A lot of the same bones, you know how to keep a structure stable and functional.

[ he reaches to gently knock her twice on the helmet and then pats her shoulder. glancing at the cabin on fire. ]

As long as we don't become that mess, I think we'll do well. Should make sure the inside is insulated... no holes and all that.

[selfdestructs]

[ the helmet slips forward when he does that and she has to fix it. sticks her tongue out at him, following his glance. rip. ]

Well, so far so good! [ nods ] I'll make sure the inside is nice and warm! Maybe even decorate a little bit, heh.

[ she's just about finished with the first window, so only one more to go! (or however many are on this cabin idfk) ]

[awol]

[ ok but like. not too warm. like on fire warm. got it? ]

Substance before the flashy stuff alright, little rabbit?

[ he will hand her the nail gun for ease of fixing the windows. trust. ]

But I'll go grab some things for you to use to decorate before they're all gone.
