WEEK ONE

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:

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. ))

Depends on the job I'm on, usually in a city for most shite. Only got dragged out to sea once so far, and ain't exactly lookin' to go sailing again for a good while after that if you get my drift.

[It's a long story--technically not the worst story he's got, but definitely on the list of things that have made the people around him question why they work with him.]
butcherspice: (pinkies out)

frankly i am just glad to use this icon

Thank yourself, you muppet.

[Billy decides to put his mock squabble with Mr. Pink on hold once Lacus has poured him a cup of tea. He takes it, and hey, it's damn good tea, how about that!]

Mm, cheers. Interesting bloke, he is. Seems more like y'got a pet robot than a kid's toy, they just have those where you're from?

I'd put good odds that the man has never seen an ostrich in his life.

[Skywarp follows Chai’s gaze towards his chest. The whole concept rather reminds him of Soundwave’s whole deal.]

I must wonder why you put it there in the first place.

[ Mr. Pink does quiet down as soon as Lacus pokes him a little. His earflaps are fluttering open and closed as he rocks in place, contented for now. ]

Hmmh... yes and no? Haros like him were developed by my former fiancΓ©, so I'm basically the only person owning them. But generally, mini robots are fairly common! In my household, we also have a dog-like robot named Okapi who helps carry things from room to room, for example.

Er, hmm... I'm really no good at explaining these things.

[It's more a case that he's lacking the patience to properly explain, but he likes Lacus, so he'll happily make the effort for her sake.]

We all have a few well-hidden secretsβ€” that's the gist of it. It's a common saying in my hometown.

[his hometown of "Some Island Known For Its Inland Sea" that doesn't have a name, thanks gbf]

What confidence! You certainly are easy on the eyes, but that ego may be your downfall some day.

That's quite the complicated question to discuss, isn't it?
