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. ))

Nobody needs to be here, but if you want to… That’s a different story.

[He huffs out a soft laugh.]

I doubt you’re the only person here who doesn’t know how to play. We can explain the rules.

[plunges]

[ Why are you being so annoying, Haruka... ]

Fine. Explain them. I make no promises.

[townmusician]

[Because Xiao just standing here is really sad…]

Alright. So I think the first game is Never Have I Ever? Basically all you do is say something you’ve never done, and then everyone who’s done that thing has to drink. Like… you could say “I’ve never been a mortal”, then because I’m mortal I’d have to drink whatever I have on me. Dunno if we’re gonna get to any other games, though.

[plunges]

I understand.

[ Still feels weird to join in, though, but...this may be the last chance they have to do something like this.

He eyes the group. ]

Fine. I'll indulge you, just this once.

[townmusician]

Just this once? Don’t get ahead of yourself, Xiao-san.

[Maybe they’ll have more parties where he can bother Xiao into having fun!!]

[plunges]

Don't get your hopes up.

[ Just saying!

(he's right.) ]

[townmusician]

I won't, I won't.

[Waving him off, but unfortunately for Xiao... Haruka knows he's right!!]
