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. ))

[ Haro seems to enjoy the pat, if him saying "Haro! Feeling fine!" is any indication of it.

Lacus, meanwhile, shakes her head. ]

Only ever on the cheek. Athrun was rather shy during our involvement. Almost timid for a teenage boy, wouldn't you say?

[gluttoning]

I wouldn't know. [He continues to pat the orb. Good boy.]

It's just surprising. I always thought a human engagement is a pretty big commitment for love.

But... is that how you both wanted it, while you had it? To stay simple like that?

[idologue]

[ Hey now, Beel. You said you were young at some point, you gotta know what being a teenager is like at least a little!! ]

I wouldn't have minded an actual relationship, back then, but... I think it turned out for the best, this way.

Our engagement wasn't made out of love - our parents decided it for us, and we were simply trying to make it work.

[gluttoning]

[hey siri, what's a "teenager"]

...Oh. So something a little more complicated.

It doesn't sound like you hold it against him. That's kind of you.

[idologue]

We're still good friends! He wound up dating the twin sister of my most important person, it is quite amusing.

[ Granted, they broke up now for... also political reasons. It's fine, everything is fine! ]

[gluttoning]

That's good. Maybe that means you kept love, then, even if it wasn't the kind that led to a kiss.

[Political drama withstanding.]

Hopefully you'll get one someday, when it's a better time for you.
