WEEK SIX - MINGLE

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.
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.

You heard Song! Blankets and some medkits now!
[ and i'm sorry but he's making lu bixing his first stop, he has priorities and he loves the rest of you but this is his husband so he's starting here (and so i don't hog all the hurt comfort). anyways, he's pushing off his coat and shoving it around lu bixing to cover up that saucy little hospital gown while sitting yoru down so he can get his arms around him to assess the damage here. ]

Lin...?
[ and he just looks
so relieved, for a second. ]
no subject
[ he's careful when shifting him, having a look at whatever injuries he's managed to accrue.
he'll keep him covered with his coat. he whispers softly into his ear and then pulls back, sifting through the medkit with one hand while the other keeps bixing secure... ]
... It's going to hurt... just bear with me.
no subject
he may look! it looks like his front half's actually mostly unscathed besides some bruising! though his ankle looks pretty messed up, but not to the point of "broken and facing the wrong direction", at least? that's good. also there's like no hidden gushing stab injuries or anything dw.
lu bixing clearly does not care or mind that it's hurt. he just lifts up his good arm and curls his hand into lin jingheng's shirt, and exhales a little, eye squeezed shut. another wheezy breath ] Uh... huh...
[ he sniffles, again, teeth chatter, shivers, winces in pain and gives the tiniest shake of his head. ] ...Okay. You're here...I made it back... back to you. [ a smaller voice; ] I'm home.

and then he slowly clenches and unclenches his hand at his side and doesn't move. ]
no subject
but he does look at date for a second as he does that. he's still holding bixing while gideon is taking care of date but he gives him a quiet look. ]
Don't wander off.
