7rings | WEEK 0 MINGLE

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.

[that's fine, she can wait. she's just thumbing through the volume she's already holding onto and deciding which characters have the best fashion sense.]

Well, it's a place... though from talking to some of you, I suppose most of you would describe it as a little old-fashioned.

[13 is mostly Ichigo fighting Kenpachi so good luck. I think Zangetsu is also there.]

That makes sense to me. [Based on how she's dressed and not having comics.] Your name does also sound Chinese to me, is that right?

[they don't actually call it "China" in the novel, s..o...]

Well, I'm from Zhongguo, if that's what you mean.

[Close enough.]

We aren't so far apart, then.
[In theory.]

Still... I wonder why it happened like this. I just thought if we could get some more bleach to replace what was taken...

[looks at him

looks at the book]

Well, this does say "Bleach".

It does. I meant it seems to me we might as well not have power to conjure things at all if it's going to be a monkey's paw sort of thing.

[He pauses.]

Unless it's only that way for me, because of my hole...
[How are these ideas related.]

Sorry, what do those things have to do with each other?

Hahaha. I guess I'm just thinking out loud.

[Anyway.]
Have you tried it, miss Qingxuan? Conjuring something up.

Not quite yet... but I suppose it can't hurt to give it a try!

[she concentrates and

a little winecork appears in her hand.]

Hmm. I was thinking about something to fill that hole of yours, since you seemed worried it had something to do with the bleach not being what you expected, but I don't think this is going to work. It probably has nothing to do with your hole at all, in that case.

[Looks at the cork....]
Ah, that's kind of you, but it would be bad if my hole was filled up, anyway...

[In any case.]
Still, that's good to know, even if it means we're all just going to end up frustrated by this ability.

Oh, I don't know, depending on what it is we're trying to make and why - we might not be too bothered by what we end up with.

[she's pocketing the cork. it might come in handy later.]

[Thinking.]

I suppose if it was something more general, it might be harder for it to become twisted. Is that what you mean?

Well, not just that - but if you don't need it for an extremely specific reason, you might be happy to have gotten something you weren't expecting.

Ah, that does make sense. Simply the novelty of not knowing what you're going to get, like a gachapon.

[So things like that is fine. But you don't generally get bleach from something like that.]

Maybe that's why they made it this way?

Gachawha?

[???]

But, maybe! If it's fun, we'll enjoy it, won't we?

Ah-
[He keeps forgetting;]

It's a machine you put coins into ang get a randomized prize capsule. Usually there's some sort of theme but you aren't guaranteed to get exactly what you want on the first try.
