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.

[Filbo has been looking around from his vantage point of 'actually working on the cabin with mild competence' and just feels like he needs to come at some point, once they have begun a bit]

Ah, just saying that if you later need some assistance I wouldn't mind lending a paw if I don't have them full at that moment.

[Anything so the population of hell isn't reduced to Almost Blue Man Group except maybe it would be All Blue Man Group no way a rock like Zelgadis would die from the cold]

[psynchronise]

[ filbo is the number one party animal and the only valid grumpus here. ]

Oh shit, really?

[ FILBOOOO ]

I have never built anything in my life. Do we start with the drafts and holes in the walls?

[failbo]

The cold's gonna get in if you don't! An open hole's a bad hole when it's about cabin integrity.

[psynchronise]

[ where's gideon to snigger at the "an open hole's a bad hole" bit? ]

Right... make's sense. And you just fix that by--? [ he mimes putting up a plank of wood and hammering it. ]

[cavaliered]

[she does actually open her mouth to comment on this and then just bursts into laughter when date does the hammer motion]

[psynchronise]

[ moves the hammer motion into a "attempt to headlock a girl the same height as he is and nooige her" motion without batting an eyelid. ]

[cavaliered]

[yelp laughs and tries to elbow him in the gut!! binch!!!]

[psynchronise]

[ lbh i'm not even gonna roll for it, she gets him right in the diaphragm. ]

[failbo]

Pretty much, but not just one. Gotta get several together. Given there's not much time placing it on the inside of the cottage would be good so during any storms you can patch it up again -- if it was on the outside and things got bad you wouldn't be able to do much.

[Usually he would recommend tearing down enough of the affected area but there probably is no time for that]

[psynchronise]

... Oh.

[ he's peering at the holes in the walls. ]

That's a good shout actually. Fix it from the side we're more likely to be on.

[failbo]

Exactly! Here, come on, let's try to get things going a bit.

[He probably only has a few minutes because oh boy you can be sure Filbo is going around to almost everyone to watch progress, hah. He takes planks of wood to Date, extending one end towards him]

[psynchronise]

[ listen, if they can get one done it'll be one more than any of these chucklefucks will get done for the rest of the mini-event.

he takes the other end of the plank.

teach him filbo one kenobi. ]

[failbo]

[They may be chucklefucks and will freeze to death in like one hour but they're lovable chucklefucks]

Okay, listen, doing it yourself is very hard so probably don't, you have Gideon and Persephone with you. Use your shoulder and stand in middle of the plank, right in middle if you have to, but you're gonna need dexterity with them paws, you know?

[...oh, right, wrong terminology]

Hands!

[psynchronise]

[ they're the best chucklefucks. ]

So... basically. Get help or grow an extra arm, that's what I'm hearing.

[failbo]

Yeah, you got it! Teamwork and all that!

[Although he does kind of demonstrate how to hold the plank by himself]>/small>

But if it's an emergency do it like this, alright? Come on, let me see your form!

[Take the plank, Date! Show it!]

[psynchronise]

[ he takes the plank.

he holds it to the wall with his shoulder. ]

Like this?

[ IS HE LEARNING? ]
