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. ))

[Hm.]

how so?

[finalforte]

not just stupid

but super dumb

they're different levels

[finalforte]

or maybe kanon will kill them first ♥





just kiddiiiiiiing ♪ kanon's a good girl

[dancing_flames]

According to our hosts, the mechanism that brings things to this place is fickle. Which means our stuff could show up at any point, or not at all.

[Needless to say, he's less than pleased about that prospect.]

[finalforte]

[what do you mean heteronormativity is a lie.]

Kanon guesses so...

Why, do you want a compliment?

Re: un: taugether

[finalforte]

hmmm

sounds boring

[felame]

[ can't wait until he ruins it, ]

It sounds acceptable.
Feel free to seek me out when the time suits you.

[ it's not like... she has much to do here. not like usual... ]

If I'm forced to think about such a thing, I suppose it does, though for reasons opposite to yours.
There's not much relaxation to be had in the days where I'm from. Not in the past, and I would be inclined to say the present, as well.

[ but that's her own ??? that she's not going to quite get into in public. ]

Beach / tasks

[butcherspice]

["Oh, it's the chav bird who was making bets on non-powered people biting it first," Billy thinks the moment Kanon calls him over. Needless to say, he already isn't a fan.

And now she's fishing for compliments...well, for prizes more accurately, but still.]

Hm.

[Billy makes a show of pretending to think extremely hard about this one, closing his eyes and rubbing his chin deeply in thought, before he just shrugs.]

Got nothin'. Sorry, lass.

[He's not sorry.]

[dupiety]

As a cleric, I ought to at least display some level of concern.

[divector]

i'm glad you recognize that

[dupiety]

A fair distinction. While my travels have not been quite so vast as exploring beyond the stars, I do know the life of a traveler. Was there any particular catalyst that set you out on the proverbial road?

[finalforte]

[It's okay, she didn't even bother to learn his name or remember anything about his profile.]

Nothing? You really can't come up with anything at all?

Beach

[butcherspice]

"Y'know you're just askin' to get your eyes pecked out. Little bugger's gonna tell the other rats with wings you're the biggest bloody sucker on the beach and soon they'll all be swarming you for chips."

Billy eyes the seagull with distrust, then Moravia with an equal amount of distrust.

"Nasty way to go, really."

[dupiety]

Correct. My role within the Church tends to be more investigative in nature, but I am still willing to lend an ear to those in need.

[finalmix]

[ nope ]

a

[butcherspice]

Gotta give me something more to work with than just "be nice" and then expecting me to blow smoke up your arse, girlie. Lemme think...

[It takes him like. Two seconds to think before he points at her.]

Y'got a face that ain't a good match for your personality. Do I get the ticket?

[divector]

Hmm, I don't particularly mind. There's always more chips, and they're not beating me in a fight. Why bother being mad at them for it?

[ In one continuous motion, she throws a fry into its beak before blasting it back into the air. The gull appears farther and farther away by the second, carried away by the pushed air. ]

[divector]

[ absolutely not ]

b

un: taugether

[divector]

puns based off my home because why not

[finalforte]

xXxcutiekanonxXx: like a priest???

[finalforte]

someone else can do it!

[divector]

sounds like a plan to me. maybe there's someone obsessed enough with numbers to try.

1/2

[finalforte]

[Looking up at him like he just slapped her in the face. Very shockedpikachu.jpg in here.]

[finalforte]

[And then she looks him over. Notes his choice in Hawaiian shirt and grins again like this has somehow given her the upper hand.]

Kanon doesn't need an old man's opinion anyway. Especially in that.

[Wow. Such a great comeback. Kanon is truly a genius.]

[butcherspice]

[He doesn't know what he expected. Did she seriously just diss his shirt like that actually means something? Is he in a fucking chick flick now?

Billy can't help chuckling a bit.]

Woulda worn me own swimsuit, but wouldn't be fair to ya since I've got the better knockers, would it?

[He doesn't actually have a stake in this. He mostly just wants to see how Kanon reacts to the assertion that he has better tits than she does.]
