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. ))

It’s not.

Never had Mr. Pinky sat still for a whole movie

[chosenwang]

[ A nod towards the Haro before he's taking a drink. ]

[chrysaline]

I really can't guess what else they'd assign...

[ Oh! Getting to know each other. She tried to remember all the names from the meeting, but: ]

I'm Psyche. You were... Baizhu, wasn't it?

[rapt0r]

👍

[divector]

okay when's the nearest anniversary then

[chrysaline]

[ The sky...? She tips her head back to look. ]

What about it?

[chosenwang]

Ah! That's a good one.

[ There we go! ]

[passetemps]

This particular one was introduced to me by Princess Ivy's other retainer. It comes from his homeland.

[gluttoning]

No, not enemies. We're just different. It's not as big a deal now as it used to be. But I wouldn't consider any other demon part of my family. Just my brothers.

That's all.

[chrysaline]

[ Oh no he doesn't. Not if she's being alarmingly informal with clergy. ]

Then, just Psyche. Please. I'm glad for us all to have the chance to get to know each other a little better.

[divector]

I'm used to the sky being far more pinkish red all the time unless I'm in a colony. So seeing a blue sky with clouds that move around is rather refreshing.

Never have I ever purposely picked a fight with someone

[solutionary]

[surely no one from this well behaved group of people would have the need to drink right now 🤔



notably, Changsheng plays along and takes a drink from Baizhu’s water]

[diabolizes]

[ He has a nice cold beer in his hand, lifting it as a means of greeting Temenos. ]

I am! Thank you for organizing that little meeting, by the way. It can't be easy getting all of us together.

[diabolizes]

Oh, you're actually here!

[ Look. Vergilius just does not seem like a party kinda guy. ]

Want something to drink?

[chrysaline]

[ [x] for doubt ]

I've only heard about the singing fish... But it's probably best if we all look out for each other.

[ Did he have powers that were good in the water... when can she discreetly check her device again. Alas that she doesn't know modern etiquette for this. ]

[gluttoning]

[He just nods his head rapidly in return, snatching up the treat, cleanly pulling off the wrapper and putting it directly into his mouth.

He looks very happy.]

[chrysaline]

Oh! It's beautiful, isn't it? I was stunned the first time I saw it, too. Although pinkish-red sounds nice... it's like sunrise all the time.

[diabolizes]

[ Wei Wuxian wastes no time in approaching Baizhu the moment he sees him, but he can tell that something is off, and it's only confirmed when Changsheng hisses something at him. ]

Baizhu, right? Would you care for something to drink?

[ A water, maybe? ]

[divector]

I'd be surprised if this didn't cause a lot of drinking.

[ 'Cause yeah. Totally drinking. ]

[diabolizes]

[ Hi Zelkov, hope you wanted someone to slide into the chair right next to you! Wei Wuxian eyes that swan for a moment or two before speaking up. ]

You have quite a bit of skill, I'm almost jealous.

[chosenwang]

[ someone should take this away from me ]

[divector]

[ He nods yes to her question at least. ]

Hmm...I think that makes it sound cuter than it is. But I suppose it'd be interesting to anyone who has never seen it before. I've been told it looks surreal and off-putting.

[gluttoning]

...

I don't know about logic, but... Sometimes things are more important than devotion to a god.

I'm glad you feel firm about your choices.

hey quick question for the masses

what's the name of the world or planet that you come from? that's a general you by the way just so no one gets confused.

[passetemps]

Consider yourself fortunate.
