WEEK 0 MINGLE

[probe]

POPULATION: 37

Good morning, starshines. It is another beautiful day here on the base and it’s the start of a new week!

After the events of the day before and the meet and greet provided by four new Avatars, you may find yourself wondering how you can get in touch with them again. Fear not. One look at your handy dandy cell phone will reveal eight new contacts added to your directory. Feel free to shoot them a message. You may be surprised.

But before you get too far, perhaps it’s worth checking out the base once more. Those locked rooms from the days before have been unlocked, free for exploration. In addition, should occupants visit the central elevator they will find the elevator in working order (and flame-free) and that a new floor has opened. Take a look, familiarize yourself, and make yourself comfortable. Life on the base is a happy place.

And speaking of happiness…it’s funny. For the rest of the week, all who reside on the base will be inflicted with little feelings of hope and happiness, a belief that they can manifest almost anything. This week, all will discover that any mundane thing they hope for will be at their disposal...though do be careful. Those small wishes may come to fruition in ways you don't expect. For example, wishing for a year's supply of sushi may net you one astronomically large sushi roll. An eyeshadow palette may provide you with samples of actual colored eyelids. And a punching bag could be mistaken for a bag full of confetti instead.

May all your hopes and dreams come true, everyone.

You have to please your Avatar and yourself, I think... oh, that's right! Which one was yours, again?

[sneaking a peek at their hand...]

[commedia]

Here.

[And turning their hand to show - its the green eyes.] And yours?

[shiftingwinds]

[turns her hand to show off the tattoo of a hand with a mouth.]

This one.

[commedia]

Is that...Greed?

[Looks like it!]

One of the ones we have yet to meet...

[shiftingwinds]

I'm told it's Gluttony, actually! But I suppose as concepts they're similar.

[commedia]

...

[A light, teasing smile.]

Is that why you asked if I was having breakfast, before?

[shiftingwinds]

[she laughs]

Oh, no, you caught me!

[it sounds like she's joking, though.]

[commedia]

Ahahaha! It was a jest, just a jest. Though now I am curious as to what sort of food you enjoy, Qingxuan.

[shiftingwinds]

I'm not too picky about food, really - but I'm particularly fond of foods that pair well with a good rice wine.

[commedia]

Rice wine...hmm. I'm trying to recall the taste of that...but I can't. Oh, well.

[:(]

I suppose its good.

[shiftingwinds]

I saw some at the bar, if you'd like to refresh your memory!

[commedia]

You think so? But ah...I don't want to leave Akimitsu-dono behind...

[shiftingwinds]

I could go grab some and bring it over, instead!

[commedia]

Well, then. I wouldn't say no to that!

[shiftingwinds]

[goes to fetch the wine!


and comes back with a jug of that and also three little bowl-like cups. one for each of them, including akimitsu.]

[commedia]

[SQX you are so kind.]

[Douman makes room on the table for the wine, gesturing for the other to sit.]

Haha, I'm glad you thought of Akimitsu-dono, too. He'd be happy, I think.

[shiftingwinds]

[once she's seated, she'll pour wine for each of them]

I hope it's to his liking! And to yours, too.

[commedia]

I think it would be. We just have to imagine that it is.

[And a raise of the glass.]

Situations like these require a toast, yes? To new friendships, then. Kanpai!

[shiftingwinds]

[does sqx know what kanpai means? no. can she figure it out from context? yes!]

Kanpai!

[DRINKS. it's like 9 am.]

[commedia]

[GETTING DRUNK IN THE MORNING BAAAAABY]

[And just going for it.]

Ah. That's rather good!

[shiftingwinds]

[the sheer number of bonus indulgence threads of sqx daydrinking that i would have if we weren't told to use mingle threads sparingly for the reports is unreal]

Oh, so you like it? You have good taste!

[commedia]

Thank you! Thank you kindly, mm, it just...reminds me that such things like this aren't ones I'm used to.

[britt i'm crying. anyways Douman just lets out a huff.]

A Servant doesn't typically eat or drink, after all.

[shiftingwinds]

Oh - you don't...?

[huh.]

There's no need for you to...?

[commedia]

No. Heroic Spirits don't truly gain sustenance from them. Until now, I suppose.

[shiftingwinds]

...I suppose it's to put us all on the same level. It'd make it easier if your indulgences need you to do anything with food or drink, too.
