WEEK 4

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?

[ oh good, they've got takers! let's make a quick looksee at what instruments they've got to work with ... okay, this might work!

with no particular reserve, magolor will get up from his seat to hang out a little closer to where the piano (and zelkov) is (are) at. let's try ... this. magolor will play them in slowly, the opening building gradually up in stages before bursting into a flurry of notes played by bow on strings.

after the grand, dramatic introduction is finished though, the violin settles and quietens into a more sedate, relaxed if still prominent melody, opening up more space for the other instruments to join in and play along. it's a pretty freeform piece, with plenty of room for the others to stretch their musical limbs, so to speak. ]

[finalmix]

[ he takes a moment to figure out at least the basics of the rhythm, beat and chord progression, and by the time joshua joins in he's got a pretty decent supporting harmony to magolor's violin solo, and of course, once the violin settles, his own piano solo crests towards the front with a flourish, before fading back to allow zelkov and his guitar time to shine now ]

[passetemps]

[ zelkov is content to keep to the background as accompaniment to the melody, focusing more on maintaining the rhythm, but he'll do something a little more interesting for a few measures before returning to a backup role. ]

[microtransactions]

[ and that's his cue to pick back up where zelkov left off, segueing back into the role of lead as his bow draws out an elegant, driving melody that just keeps rising up and up and up, before once again stepping back into supporting rhythms and flourishes to let joshua's piano take on a more prominent role as the piece seems to reach a climax.

all the while, he's whirling back and forth as much as a piece this dramatic calls for. listen, if this is meant to be a performance he might as well lean into it as much as he can while still playing along. ]
