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?

!

TASKS:

In the stars:
Compare your astrology sign with someone else, and find out if you're a match!
(REWARD: RARE!)

Say Cheese:
Take a selfie with someone else and share it with the network. Make it silly, romantic, zany, or however else you want to express yourself!
(REWARD: RARE!)

Encore!:
Everyone loves a performance. Give someone or several someones a performance however you like, music not required.
(Reward: Common)

(( REMINDER: Task submissions are due Friday by 9 PM EST/6 PM PST. ))

(( OOC: Murder proposals are due by Tuesday at 4 PM EST / 1 PM PST, for the current week's murder. Feel free to submit for later weeks too!

Also, as always, your admins can be contacted for a chat. ))

[ Before his villain arc of introducing Skywarp to chicken, he can be here to squeeze it in time with the music. It totally enhances the experience. ]

[plunges]

[ Xiao is here, obviously! He's not partaking in messing around with any instruments, but he's at least not wallflowering as much as he did at the party Kanon threw. In fact, as one of the hosts, he will go around and check in on the others – ]

Have you had something to eat or drink yet? Baizhu prepared something nutritious for everyone.

[ He's trying his best. Look at him, socializing... ]

[microtransactions]

[



okay but how good is his sense of rhythm actually ]

[necrotiem]

...You may be forced to make a difficult romantic decision later in the day when Venus squares off with the Nodes of Fate.'

[Quin is polishing off the final sentence of a daily horoscope that she's plucked from the postings and been reading aloud, sitting primly on the couch and dangling a drink in her hand.]

My...doesn't that sound like a passionate clash? [She lifts her gaze from the reading to make eye contact, looking for confirmation.] It said a lot of natter about catching up with acquaintances as well, at the top. On social media...? But this is far social enough for me. What about yours? Any squaring off in your fortune?

[If the horoscopes don't suit your fancy, feel free to approach her otherwise! Get a selfie, compliment her, grill her about the food sources! She is being a good hostess and mingling when she isn't contributing to the proliferation of Xiao shirts across the building or redirecting alcohol from WWX.]

[chosenwang]

[ Stupidly good. ]

[plunges]

[ Huh. About that. ]

I have the same one as you.

[ He rolls his eyes. ]

It's nonsense, if you ask me.

[dakicover]

What kind of horoscope is that?

[ curious, he takes a look to see which one of the zodiac signs that belongs to, and… ]

Aries?? [ um, ] Jeez, I don’t think I have time for romance right now. My plate’s full enough.

[plunges]

It isn't too hard of a climb.

[ Says Xiao, anyway. Why does Joshua remind him of Barbatos, in some ways? Cursed. ]

And, yes. I'm better now. Those who assisted worked hard to ensure my recovery. ... I suppose I didn't have to prove my innocence, after all. Lobelia did all the work himself.

we have another thread and yet

[microtransactions]

[ out of curiosity he snatches one of the appropriate horoscopes off the postings also and reads aloud: ]

"For a few months now, you've felt that things are accelerating in your professional life, Scorpio. Perhaps some projects have developed more quickly than you anticipated. They may have even gotten a bit out of control. Today you should let yourself distinguish more clearly what you've done so far. You may be in for a surprise."

Huh! No, nothing so dramatic as a passionate romance, it looks like! But wow, what kind of decision do you think you're even going to have to make?

[necrotiem]

Is that so? And here I thought we couldn't be more different in temperament, haha!

That would add credence to your theory that all of this is nonsense. I'd much prefer to take matters into my own hand...but if the stars are on my side, then I accept their support!

[plunges]

Pre...recorded? Interesting.

[ Technology, man. Wild! And Xiao does not know movie etiquette, so he just shakes his head. ]

I do not understand that sentiment. Granted, marriage is something that I am unfamiliar with. I'm sure some have their reasons, peculiar as they may be.

[dakicover]

[ crea’s out here just hanging around! he has a beach ball in his hands, ready to toss it at whoever seems to be in his path… he might toss it in your character’s direction, so stay sharp!

later, he’ll be sitting down, staring up at the starry sky in quiet wonder. ]

Man, it’d be nice if stuff like this didn’t have to get ruined by the murder stuff. [ he looks over, smiling warmly ] Hey, wanna take a picture? I think it’ll be a nice place to make a memory.

[microtransactions]

[ is he up to doing something like this or this with a rubber chicken or tambourine.




after all, doesn't this sound perfect for it? ]

[microtransactions]

Trying to stealthily sneak in that selfie task, huh? I see what you're up to.

You think the lighting's good for it?

[dupiety]

[Honestly, Temenos is here for Shuda getting in on the jokes.

He holds a hand to his chest.]

Oh my... That we do. It would be a heart-pounding duet, I am sure.

[Maybe there is hope for them yet, at the party.]

Well, let's see what you think of this for a solo, then.

[He'll settle in for a piano version another song, this one fit for a cool shounen battle.]

[passetemps]

I suspect I will not photograph well... but I have no objections.

[ dressed head to toe in black in the dark, very promising ]

[townmusician]

[Parties need games - at least on crazy murder islands. It feels like a bit of a copout to repeat games, but hey! Not everyone was at the spa last week. This way nobody gets left out.]

How do we all feel about playing truth or dare? If there’s any people here that don’t know the rules, it’s pretty self-explanatory. You either use something to pick someone at random, like spinning a bottle or something, or you target someone you really want to annoy, then they get to pick between having to answer something truthfully or doing whatever you dare them to do.

The penalty can just be like, a shot or whatever. I don’t care.

[Please imagine him gesturing throughout this whole thing.]

I can start us an off with an example if anyone wants to volunteer.

[Otherwise go nuts!! There are no rules at the planetarium.]

[chosenwang]

[ He is and will! He will also dance while doing so. It's almost like he's used to putting on a performance. ]

[plunges]

[ Good explanation, Haruka. Unfortunately for Xiao, he feels like he should participate, so he's here...

Truth or dare him?! ]

[necrotiem]

A sorely violent one, if a little lonely. I suppose people in some places live these U-PINION devices all the time.

[What's this? Does she taste some hesitation? Hoho.]

Crea, could it be that you take these horoscopes as serious doctrine?

GIVE ME MORE MORB.....MORB? shit that doesn't work

[necrotiem]

A few months? It sounds as if you should be anticipating the culmination of a great work. Do you have such an opus in motion, Magolor?

[To her, that sounds like a rather intense outcome as well! Would that we could all see such long-lived projects come to fruition.

Quin swirls her glass.] Well, what do you think? Is intense courtship on my mind at the moment?

[idologue]

[ Lacus isn't being super social this time around, mostly chilling in the corner with a Refresher and watching the group, but she's not going to turn down playing when approached! ]

[diabolizes]

[ Well of course Wei Wuxian is participating in this. Come at him. ]

[townmusician]

[uwehhhhh]

Truth or dare, Xiao?

[finalmix]

[ against his will josh is here but only because he likes games and living dangerously and truth or dare is both???? at the same time???? ]
