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. ))

[two of them…]

[plunges]

I am fine with where I'm at now.

[ He is still keeping his distance from Haruka.]

Go. Enjoy the night while you can.

[dakicover]

Thank you for your kindness! It will never be forgotten.

[ he's drinking a soda anyways, but still very much appreciated! ]

So you're an only child?

[chosenwang]

[ Two or even three ]

[chosenwang]

Not much for participation? [ Taking a sip ]

[gluttoning]

[Oh.




He looks very, deeply sad for a moment.]

I feel fine, though.

[chosenwang]

[ He was going to drink, but then sees her little buddy. ] Oh? What's the problem?

[diabolizes]

I didn't! I plan on going back into the ocean sometime soon, though, so I'll keep an eye out for them.

[dakicover]

I saw the phrase on an ad one day when I went to the store!

[chosenwang]

It does indeed. Is it much like you? I heard earlier you have quite the number of siblings.

[idologue]

Ah, don't mind Mr. Pink! He just likes to participate.

[ Meanwhile Haro himself: ] You too!

[chosenwang]

[ whoops ]

[chrysaline]

Ah! I can picture that, a little. So that's how you can live there...

[ That explanation says that this is something any child would probably know, where Lacus is from. Well... that's fine. It's hardly the first time Psyche's needed to ask for common knowledge, and it won't be the last. ]

You'd already traveled so much before this. It sounds exciting.

[townmusician]

I don't think he mixes well with people.

[Hm.]

I want to know what's in it first before I try anything.

[He's suspicious!!]

[idologue]

I am. Having siblings sounds quite fun, but not a lot of children are born in my country as is.

[gluttoning]

[Not drinking, but:]

Oh. It talks?

[solutionary]

[no drink!! He’s only marginally better than Old Man Xiao over there.]

[chosenwang]

Sounds like it could be fun. And you might need someone to chaperone. [ Is he adulty enough to be the chaperone? who knows ]

[plunges]

[ Suddenly, there is the quiet sound of muffled coughing coming from the back corner of the bar...]

[diabolizes]

I agree.

[ He smiles. ]

Going through difficult times with someone can bring you closer than anything else.

[townmusician]

[Ah... He's trying not to take the difference personally, but. It's a bit awkward.]

...Okay. But, I mean, if you want to relax this might be the only real chance you get...

[chrysaline]

[ Oh thank goodness. He really looks like he would sink in that. Unless all the robes buoyed him up like a balloon... She's trying very hard not to let her thoughts drift too far on this tangent. ]

Oh! That explains it. I thought that didn't look much easier to swim in than my clothes did. It isn't too warm for you like that?

[gluttoning]

Mn, I do.

I'd say it's pretty similar, sure. Hard to say without details, but... I think I'd feel the same way.

[solutionary]

[He’ll take his sip as well, before leaning closer]

What kind of problem?

[townmusician]

[help]

Do you just repeat everything you read?
