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. ))

[ 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.

[Raising his glass right back. Cheers!]

You are most welcome. Honestly, getting you all together was the easiest part. Getting you to talk, well... That's another matter entirely. But at least we made progress.

Haha! A lot of us wouldn't, hmm?

[ He grins, having a sip of his beer. ]

At least a few of us did, even if it took a bit of prompting. I hope that it was at least worth that bit of trouble you had.

I wouldn't say we found any concrete leads toward escaping this place, but I still found it useful overall. The more we learn about one another and our worlds, the better.

[..."should any potential crime go down" is what goes unsaid.]

[ It sure does, but Wei Wuxian picks up on it and smiles. ]

It could lead to us finding a shared commonality that could help us escapeโ€ฆ among plenty of other things.
