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. ))

Oh? Excusez-moi, Merlin, but it seems you've made a potentially grave mistake!

we ride on one braincell

[gluttoning]

[Oh. Damn.]

Huh. Well, I guess you did resign.

What would you want to do instead, then?

I'M ALSO CRYING I LOVE THIS but i am sorry

[necrotiem]

[So he's already thinking about her like that, is he? How scandalous.

Quin places the pads of her fingers to her mouth, which nearly covers that she is smirking.]

Do you think me so loose?

[mysticpowerbroker]

Being happy sounds pretty good!

[merlin]

La beauté est gaspillée pour quelqu'un comme vous. 10/10

[Take your score and don't worry about the French!]

[diabolizes]

I don't, no. I have written it down in my notes, but they're disorganized and would take some time to sort through... at least for someone other than myself. I have to wonder how long they spent researching.

un: mm

[mysticpowerbroker]

Or maybe we're just doing this for fun~

You're at least an 8/10 for being a cute-looking lady.

un: genie_du_son

[conchy]

You would be a 8/10 were it not for your mauvais personality, so let's do a bit of math to calculate your actual score. Try to keep up!

-2pts ego
-2pts delusion
-2pts arrogance

That leaves us at 2/10. Apprécier!

un: genie_du_son

[conchy]

12/10!

[Is he just here to rile Vergilius up? Maybe.]

un: genie_du_son

[conchy]

9/10! Monsieur Chuuya, it's about time you updated your wardrobe to show some skin. This is a beach, don't be shy!

[dupiety]

[Assuming he's wandering the premises like usual, the scoff that Temenos lets out as he sees that score is audible to anyone near him.]

I would appreciate it if you stopped hiding behind a language that you know I cannot understand.

[butcherspice]

Your loss. Just don't start whinging at me when they won't give you a moment's rest.

[He observes her tossing the fry, starting to realize that there's more than just his usual distrust of these people when it comes to Moravia.]

Were you here when those feathery bastards started spelling out the murders they wanted to us? Colorful lass like you woulda stood out.

[conchy]

Have you considered educating yourself, Temenos? I wouldn't mind teaching you a lesson or two.

[Come on, Temenos. Hon hon baguette is the language of love!]

Ah, but I won't have you accusing me of hiding. You're a marvel to look at, but the rest of you leaves much to be desired.

[felame]

[ conqueror of demons......... excuse her for making her internal pause over that title more than a little obvious.

is that the little boomer? ]

Perhaps. We can make any number of guesses from the threads of similarity we share with one another, or the threads we do not.

[ hmm. ]

What kind of thing are you envisioning when you mention something you could have "physically encountered"?

[mysticpowerbroker]

Nope, no mistakes here!

[gravitys]

what the hell does that even mean?

[conchy]

How unfortunate that you are both blind and quite intolerable!

[passetemps]

I replied in order to *answer* the poll question. [ the "how about?" question!! ] I was not the first to respond with a negative answer.

[ ...and as for that rating he is 99% sure that was supposed to be a joke. ]

I could do without the *japery*, thank you.

[gravitys]

I'm not shy. Are you withholding a point because you want me to strip???

[divector]

Of course, I always take responsibility for my own actions. [ Unlike certain humans, though she doesn't say that part out loud. ] But thank you for the warning.

[ Anyway, she smiles at that second part, nodding. ]

I was most certainly watching then. That meeting was called for a reason, and it would be remiss to skip.

[necrotiem]

[Thoughtfully, her fist balances beneath her chin as she weighs her reaction.

It might leave something to be desired, but the true horror of the story is...] The passerby was a greater force of evil than anything else in the house.

[mysticpowerbroker]

Ugh! Who asked you?!

Looks like I did make a mistake after all! I should've definitely given you a 1/10!

[conchy]

Please, comport yourself with some elegance! There's no need to debase yourself so openly. I simply think you'd enjoy yourself far more if you let your hair down, so to speak.

[gravitys]

That one feels a bit sad. Let's see...

[ Hrm. ]

There's a door in the office that takes you where you're meant to go. I opened it and there was nothing there.

[gravitys]

You could always go fishing here.
