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.

1 why would I choose a non-skeleton prompt

[holeful]

[Fukuda actually stands and just looks for a long moment as he tries to determine what's going on here. It doesn't seem to be moving, or alive, but there's a robot here, so, like...]

Ah, hello?
[He's saying this to the skeleton.]

[commedia]

...

[Douman is just smirking at this attempt.]

He won't answer you.

[holeful]

[Oh so it is a he, then!!! That means it isn't just some prop.]

Do you know who he is, Mr Douman? I haven't seen him around before.

[commedia]

Yes, that's Akimitsu-dono.

[A sip of the tea.]

He's with me. That's why you haven't seen him.

[holeful]

["With" them, huh.]
...





Is he your master?

[commedia]

No. Ahaha, I guess you could say I'm his? Though I guess that's not fair to Akimitsu, hm.

[holeful]

[Looks at Akimitsu. Looks back at Douman.]

Does he move?

[commedia]

He can, yes, when he's not asleep.

[PULLS OUT MEGAPHONE. WAKE UP AKIMITSU!!!!!!!!!!!!!]

[holeful]

[Fukuda looks relieved. That's why he's not responding!!]

Ah, he's just asleep then. Shouldn't you wake him up? His tea will get cold...

[commedia]

He can't be woken up. Believe me, I tried,

[A huff.]

That doesn't mean I shouldn't be polite.

[holeful]

Oh, I'm sorry...

[Maybe Douman's wish is to wake his friend up, he thinks...]

It's nice of you to look after him like this.

[commedia]

Any spirit deserves its amount of respect. And Akimitsu-dono is someone who has helped me achieve my goals many times.

[like NP looping]

[holeful]

[This is all so nice. Douman is such a nice man.]

It's nice that he can be here with you then, even if he's like this.

[commedia]

[So very nice! Super nice!]

...It is. He brings a sense of comfort. Like...like home, in a way. Hm.

[holeful]

But is he going to be ok? He looks a little.... skeletony.

[Yeah.]

[commedia]

Of course.

The man is nothing but a spirit who is confined to that form. His living self is long gone.

[holeful]

[Huh.]

So he's a ghost possessing a skeleton?
[Halloween monster turducken]

[commedia]

If you want to put it that way...yes!

[holeful]

That's pretty spooky.... Maybe you should dress him up in a Halloween costume?

[Triple Halloween.]
