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!:

(Reward: Common)

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

[dakicover]

On my way.

What’s worked and what hasn’t? Is he poisoned?

[plunges]

Temenos and Psyche are here
It's getting worse
I believe he tried out his abilities and is facing consequences as a result, but I cannot be sure

[dakicover]

Ok.

[ god he wishes he had touch-scan magic sometimes. but after a minute he’s there to look over at wwx. ]

I’m here. Let me try.

[diabolizes]

[ Wei Wuxian nods, keeping his promise of silence since he's been banned for talking.

Go on, heal him! ]

[dakicover]

[ crea looks down at wwx, his eyes hardened and cold. ]

We got two shots. You better hope that I can heal this in the first attempt, or I’ll have to hurt you in order to try again.

[ with that hopeful message, crea’s hand lights up like a transparent, blue flame, which he will set on wwx’s chest. ]

[diabolizes]

[ Scary... but he simply nods.

How well does healing that isn't of the divine variant work?

Well... his nose starts to bleed again. Wei Wuxian puts up a hand in case Crea decides to try that alternative method. ]

That confirms it. This doesn't have to do with my powers.

[ Did he need to confirm it like this? Eh, probably not, but he doesn't like to give out half-assed theories. ]

It's something else.

[dakicover]

…

[ he removes his hand, as it falls limply by his side. ]

Then what should we do with you?

[diabolizes]

Lay me down on my side for a nap like I've had a fun night out.

[ Is now the time to joke? ]

[dakicover]

[ …

…

he sits down on the floor, cross-legged, patting his lap. he’s not going be the one to argue anything. ]

I thought you’d prefer a swift death but… [ maybe it’s better, crea thinks selfishly. he hates killing. ] Yeah, sure, why not? I’ll spoil you a bit.

[finalmix]

[ if he's making jokes it probably means he's not on the verge of death but I don't trust amb |: ]

[finalmix]

[ abrupt question but this is probably on everyone's minds: ]

Do you feel like you are close to death?

[plunges]

[ ... ]

[diabolizes]

[ From Crea's lap: ]

I always feel close to death!

[ But he knows what Joshua means, so... ]

The short answer is no. [ He knows he'll get follow-up questions, so let him continue after a few coughs. ] I feel... poisoned, but this isn't my powers backfiring on me. In fact, I felt off when I went to bed last night, but I assumed that was from drinking a little bit after the meeting.

[ He frowns, a thoughtful look passing over his face. ]

If I consider my symptoms... I think this could happen to someone else too.

[finalmix]

[ SHARE WITH THE CLASS ]

So your powers reactivating were more of a side effect than the intended result, huh.

[ good to know!!! ]

So, who are we talking about? I suppose we'd need to check in on them to make sure their tongue is also not black at this stage.

[plunges]

In what way could it happen to someone else?

[ Quin, maybe?? Otherwise, he's not sure if this is the product of WWX simply using his abilities, or... ]

[necrotiem]

[Oh, we don't like to hear that.}

Drinking with anyone in particular?

[chrysaline]

[ Has she calmed down enough from crying on Wang Lu to lift her head and have bad ideas? Maybe. ]

So you think... it's only you, because you're not feeling well? Or is healing going to do this from now on?

[microtransactions]

[ and here's magolor, who probably showed up some time during everyone else's attempts at healing just in time to watch things not work and in fact, get worse! ]

... It just started last night?

Can you remember what you ate or drank all of yesterday?

[ not that that necessarily means anything, if it's a slow building toxin or poison, but, ]

[butcherspice]

[Billy is slightly useless when it comes to ailments. He’d sort of know what to do if it was a stab wound, but illness? Who the fuck knows.]

This seems a bit fuckin’ stronger than an allergic reaction, but gotta ask anyway. Y’ever get this kinda sickness before comin’ here?

[divector]

[ Ibuki's around, because he was lured by the text and the crowd. He almost reflexively takes out his U-PINION at that last part, though he stops it at that. ]

Just to make sure, did you see or experience anything strange yesterday in hindsight? I assume you didn't press suspicious buttons, but maybe it'd isolate the cause?

[dupiety]

[Haha, great. :)

Temenos approaches once more, keeping his tone matter-of-fact like this isn't a very bad situation.]

Then am I to assume your tongue does not typically turn black like that?

[diabolizes]

[ From Crea's lap: ]

It does not. Demonic cultivation is not meant to take a toll this bad on the body.

[ But does it take a toll? Well... yes. But this isn't it. ]

[finalmix]

[ after a quick profile check: ]

reacting badly to divine based powers, it seems

[plunges]

Thank you
I will try to alert them

[dakicover]

Let’s see if mine are any better. There’s nothing divine about mine.
