WEEK ONE

29 Vacationers

As much as this vacation was unplanned, hopefully you've found some time to enjoy yourself this weekend as you've settled in. The idyllic beach, all inclusive food, drink, and shopping might be almost enough to distract you from that pesky talk of sacrifice. Vacations really are about letting your worries pass you by. Hopefully you've found the time to set up your U-PINION too, because if you haven't, it's been chirping incessantly since the date turned to Monday. And come Monday at noon, everyone's device will let out a pleasant jingle, heralding several announcements across the screen:

Happy Monday! We've hope you've been enjoying your time at Sungem's Peak. The Mermer (intranet) is now fully operational. Chat with your friends and get recommendations for how to best enjoy your vacation, by:

• Reading about your fellow vacationers via their profile
• Chatting on the network
• Asking honest questions via our anonymous poll system
• REQUIRED: Reading the RULES set by the administrators

We're also happy to announce our reward system is live! Complete tasks to receive special items to improve your stay!!! Contact your administrators for any questions or concerns. We hope you have a wonderful week!

The artificial peppiness of the announcement just oozes out from the U-PINION, and soon thereafter everyone will be accosted by a friendly robot that forces a physical copy of the rules into their hands anyway. Just in case. They'll also present a copy of the tasks this week as well, for any interested parties.

!

TASKS:

Be Nice
Now that you're acquainted, tell another person one thing you like about them, and why.
(REWARD: RARE!)

Let's Play!
Play a game with someone else. Any type of game: board games, card games, or even a party game! (Reward: Common )

Summer Spooks
Tell a two-sentence horror story in person, or on the network.
(Reward: Common)

((OOC: Welcome to Week 1! This is a peace week, so they'll be no case this weekend. However, we have something for you to chew on Saturday, time to be announced later in discord.

We'll also be playing around with the network and seeing what works as far as formatting goes, so thanks for bearing with us! Also please note, that the poll questions are anon, but any answers won't be. ))

Is that an invitation?
If you wish. I admit I'm curious, and our talks have not yet proven unpleasant.

[ YET!!! that's about as high a compliment as he's gonna get.

anyway there's probably none of that where she's from, or at least in the form that he's imagining. ]

... Much like your recommendations.
It seems peace and quiet is what you seek most in your leisure time.

[microtransactions]

You do know what a planet is, right ........

[dakicover]

[ she faced off against the one thing that wouldn't be susceptible to her charms.

a fruit. ]

Sure thing. Though you can't be doing all of this magnanimously, right? I'm sure that you want the prize, too, whatever it is.

[immortalpoet]

like a star right

[diabolizes]

[ Wow it's been so long since he's been called not unpleasant, it's almost a shock to his system. ]

it is, actually! how does later in the afternoon sound to you?

[ And she's right—he does seek peace and quiet. ]

it is! i had a relatively easy life growing up, so it's only natural that i'd want to go back to those days when i have the chance.

does it suit you as well? or do you prefer something exciting instead?

[finalmix]

must be nice to be free from responsibility

[finalmix]

in a manner of speaking~

i could just use my name but that would make it too obvious

[finalmix]

i haven't even gotten to the part where there's competitive battling involved

[divector]

like pokemon vs. humans?

[dakicover]

It just sounds like it must be a lot of pressure. That's never good for one's mental state.

But if you say you're fine, then that's okay.

[dakicover]

I don't think that's necessarily the case, though...

un: collectivism

[dysnowpian]

That wouldn't be very fair, would it?

[dakicover]

Wow! What a loyal retainer she has. I'm sure she and the royal family must see you as a commendable hero.

[dakicover]

Well, okay...

beach

[dysnowpian]

[ Is it the singing fishes or the beached squid that calls him over? Yes. ]

Are you alright? [ Wading into the water carefully. ]

un: taugether

[divector]

lol if you're starting a betting pool, you should calculate the odds first

Bar

[butcherspice]

[Billy looks at the pot of tea as if it's some curiosity. Taking drinks from some tiny lass on an island where Supes are pit against each other for murder might be a bad idea.

...but at the same time, it's herbal tea, and he's cursed with being British.]

What kind is it? I might fancy a cuppa...

[When the little pink ball starts bouncing and talking to him, it gets an equally suspicious squint.]

--where'd you find this blighter?

[dakicover]

I see... food in the Devildom seems far more varied than what I've had.

[ though crea's not sure if he would like to eat toxic chameleon any time in his life. ]

I'm guessing it must be some sort of luxury item. I can see why you would want to eat it, if that's the case.

[dakicover]

Well, it's not exactly the same with this awful heat, but if you ever want to get to know the nature that's around the island, I wouldn't mind accompanying you!

[dakicover]

Oh? Because you're part of the church?

[microtransactions]

see, the problem with joking like this is that given how half the people here are, it's impossible to tell whether this is a joke or not.

[microtransactions]

Woooow.

Shirking your duties like that ... just think of the example you're setting for the rest of us! !?!◢(Дﾟ≡ﾟДﾟ)◣?!!

[microtransactions]

Now that you bring it up...

Remind me what they said happened to the rest of our stuff again?

[butcherspice]

snack cake

[microtransactions]

I mean, from the looks of things a good handful of us did exactly that anyway, hee hee!
