WEEK 4

[killerwaves]

WEEK FOUR

24 Vacationers

What started with a week promising relaxation turned into something else entirely. It might be nice to try to grab a quiet moment after the whirlwind of the weekend, but there's something to be said about keeping up the momentum too.The island open to you this week, Dodo's Outlook, seems to have that in mind, or at the very least, keeping your mind occupied. All damage to the island buildings has been fixed by Monday morning at least, but noticeably there are less palm trees than before where the damage was the heaviest. Explorers too will find that the area behind the waterfall has been completely sealed off with solid rock.

Whether you're the type to commune with the nature of marine life in the aquarium, the cosmos in the planetarium, or to spin your own tale in the theater, there's plenty to do and enjoy. As always there's task to complete too, and after all you've been through by now, what's a little more bonding in the pursuit of prizes?

To my eye, at least, it appeared as if the empty ones were brand new and unused — not that they had been emptied of some previous contents. So while it does appear that they have done experiments on our dead, I am not confident that they intend to use them in the same way.

I believe it referred to the equipment related to that process and to whatever was used to extract those mysterious objects from the bodies of the deceased, but not necessarily to other devices like the one that housed the records.

...I am also lacking in knowledge of these kinds of technology, however, so I suppose I could be mistaken.

[divector]

[ She pauses when she hears Lacus's voice, spinning in place to face her and wave. ]

Hmm, both. I've never seen either before I came here. So you could say this is a refreshing sight. Especially the turtles.

[passetemps]

I think that's a bit of an exaggeration for a handful of simple drink recipes, but thank you.

[ aaand one golden elixir! ]

Here you are. I hope you find it enjoyable.

[gluttoning]

Really?

Do you mean it?????

[dupiety]

[He's just making this face at both Alice and Ibuki.]

Ah, so that's what he did with those photos.

[stilllovesyou]

1. Aquarium

[Nona strolls along the aquarium, running her hands over the glass and saying 'hello' and 'I love you' to all the fishies. It's nice, if a little nostalgic.

She's not sure what she's feeling nostalgia for. Maybe the beach at home with all the jellyfish that kill anyone who enters except for her who they just tickle.

Actually, there's some jellyfish now! Her eyes brighten and she runs to the jellyfish tank.]

Jellyfish! Are you okay? Are you swimming? Why aren't you in the salt? Oh, it's so good to see you again.

[And she seems to... hug the tank.]

2. Planetarium

[She can't recognize these stars, or this perspective. She sits with cross legs and watches the visage above, and she can't help but feel a little sad.

She thinks in her dream she was lying on a sleeping bag in the sand, and He was pointing the stars out. Not for her benefit, but for his own. He didn't want to forget.]

What planet are we on, I wonder? Do you know?

3. Beach

[It's another day, and she ends it like she always does. In the sea, on the beach, her braid undone and he cares melted away. She can find peace, maybe because she's not afraid of drowning, or of being taken by the sea and devoured. She thinks, in some way, that the sea loves her too. Maybe not quite as much as she loves it, but it still loves her.

I still love you.]

I wish I could stay here forever. Maybe at the bottom of it all.

[It's a wistful thought, but one she believes with the entirety of her heart. She wonders if the other girls she might be would have wanted to stay in the chlorine forever. She thinks they would. Maybe that's one point of commonality between all of them.]

[passetemps]

[ he mixes one up and sets it down in front of her! ]

I imagine that would be doable. If you have any specific requests, let me know and I can try it out.

[passetemps]

As hot and humid as the climate is here, it seemed to me that some alternatives to hot tea and coffee were in order.

[ but like, more natural/healthier ones than monster. rip, other chai.

he mixes the drink up and slides it over. ]

One Garnet Concoction. I would be happy to hear your thoughts.

[passetemps]

[ golden elixir for the golden eye club!!! ]

Here you are. I would be happy to hear any feedback you might have on it.

[dancing_flames]

[divector]

[ i sure mixed regular speech and network text there whee ]

of course
but don't forget how random these are lol

[passetemps]

[ i think she's valid even if zelkov does not. ]

Coming right up.

[ and a few minutes later, here we are. golden elixir! ]

Please enjoy.

[divector]

Correct!

[ peace sign ]

[divector]

[microtransactions]

Hee hee, what's the saying again? There's strength in numbers? Honestly, they have to expect that we're tired of being cooped up, right?

[conceivesfrenzy]

[passetemps]

Of course. It is a rather new fruit to me as well.

[ if elyos has anything they call dragonfruit it might be a lot more literal...

slides a glass over! ]

It is the most subtle of the flavors, in my opinion, but a pleasant and refreshing one.

[dupiety]

Funny, I figured a rage like this wouldn't show itself again now that Lobelia is gone...

[help]

[divector]

Sounds rough. Did you want another refresher?

[ sitting here like he isn't the cause ]

[conceivesfrenzy]

You looked like you were enjoying yourself at least! Y'know, aside from getting beat an inch within your life. ♡

[microtransactions]

...So in theory, overwhelming it with enough people throwing things at it should work?

[ like. more than four. constant barrage of them rotating attacks or something. ]

[dupiety]

I wouldn't want to waste Zelkov's hard work by throwing it on you, so no.

[gluttoning]

[...

glancing at Temenos]

[divector]

Huh.

[ thinks for a moment ]

How would it feel to get a refresher on you? ...Refreshing?

[dupiety]

[Glances back...]

It was hardly so severe...
