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. ))

Why? It sounds like quite the interesting concoction.

[personal profile] rhythmaction 2023-05-15 05:53 pm (UTC)(link)
well first of all when i put the candy in the drink it made a weird skin on top

like a bubble formed at the surface and when i poked it it didnt pop

and now it feels like my stomachs exploding
necrotiem: (they think i left them in the will)

[personal profile] necrotiem 2023-05-15 06:19 pm (UTC)(link)
But you did still drink it. You're quite the adventurer, aren't you?

Maybe it's something in the formula they use to make the tincture energizing.


[She thinks it is a potion...]

[(chai voice) what's a tincture]

heh, adventure is my middle name! so is 'comic books', and also 'trent reznor's biggest fan'....
necrotiem: (one day i'll watch as you're leaving)

[personal profile] necrotiem 2023-05-15 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[(quin voice) what the fuck are any of those things]

An impressively long title, but not one that I think is quite official, hm?

Do tell me more about your little experiment.
rhythmaction: (048)

[personal profile] rhythmaction 2023-05-17 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
well, when i first started drinking it, it was sweet and energizing! best of both worlds for the candy and the energy drink, yknow? i can slam back a few energy drinks no problem and i usually drink at least two every day

but like man after i got halfway done with the can something felt wrong

and that's when *it* happened

the biggest, most corrosive burp in history

I believe there is *stomach medicine* available at the gift shop if you are in need of it.

If you find it to be *insufficient* in resolving your dyspepsia, I can offer you a soothing herbal blend from the garden as a possible alternative.

its SO good

You know, I think I know a guy who would've downed that entire thing anyway, no problem.

... maybe two guys now, actually.

I think they'll be fine, honestly!

And why share it when they can just look on here and see the results of your culinary adventures?

Why not? I thought it was fine.

Too sweet, though.

[personal profile] rhythmaction 2023-05-15 09:42 pm (UTC)(link)
seriously?!?! how the heck can your stomach handle that much acid?
gluttoning: (069)

[personal profile] gluttoning 2023-05-15 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't know.

I did eat twenty bags of the cheese flavored tortilla chips with it. Maybe that helped.
rhythmaction: (017)

[personal profile] rhythmaction 2023-05-17 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
TWENTY bags?!?!?!?!

dude you have gotta share your techniques even i start feeling sick after five
gluttoning: (070)

[personal profile] gluttoning 2023-05-17 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Make sure it's a flavor you really like. That helps.

Comfortable clothes, too. It's easier to eat when you're relaxed.

[personal profile] divector 2023-05-18 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
i thought it was an interesting idea? i just had a bunch of sour candy earlier, and i don't think it's a lost cause mixing it with anything.
rhythmaction: (029)

[personal profile] rhythmaction 2023-05-19 02:09 pm (UTC)(link)
oh! well then im glad that SOMEONE ELSE can recognize the genius in it!

[personal profile] divector 2023-05-20 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
if you keep trying i'm sure you'll find a great combo one day. sour is a good flavor
