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.

[That's still mostly true.]

It can take some time to get used to that sort of thing.

[holeful]

I suppose that's true. But holes can help a lot. They can bring people together.

[housewolf]

They can.

[These are two completely different conversations.]

[holeful]

[They really are. It's incredible. Fukuda looks surprised at that response, though.]

I didn't think I'd find someone else here who understood that.

[housewolf]

It doesn't come up that often, most of the time.

[holeful]

No? I feel like it's come up a lot since I've been here. It's just that the others don't understand.

[housewolf]

I don't remember talking about holes much.

[holeful]

Well, this is the first time you and I have talked, after all.

[Omi I am begging you to notice the hole in this man's head.]

[housewolf]

[It's rude to talk about things like that??]

We've got the same sin though.

[holeful]

[Glances down at Omi's hand.]

Ah, so we do! That makes five of us, counting Envy. No wonder you understand holes.

[housewolf]

I don't think that's usually part of the sin.

[holeful]

No, but I think maybe Envy picked people similar to them. So it makes sense that we'd be similar to each other.

[housewolf]

That does make sense.

How are you doing with indulgences?

[It's week 0.]

[holeful]

Well... I've been trying to do things I'd normally hold back from... but I haven't done anything particularly envy related, I don't think? I suppose I should be trying harder.

[housewolf]

Did you ask Envy about what counted?

[holeful]

I suppose I should have... Maybe next time I talk to them I will. Though the whole mood here seems geared towards sex, one way or another.

[housewolf]

I'm sure there are other ways to indulge... But it is probably the easiest.

[holeful]

It doesn't seem that easy to me, but maybe that's just because I don't have much experience...

[housewolf]

I could help you with that.

[holeful]

[Because of having had a completely different conversation that Omi, earlier, this catches him pretty off guard.]

You- Are you sure?
[Pointing at himself like??? Really?? Me???]

[housewolf]

[Yeah. You. Who else is here?]

We're both envy, after all.

[holeful]

[Pausing a moment to really look Omi over. He is nice, and he's handsome. But he's so normal that Fukuda is just having trouble squaring the circle here.]

Well, Envy said it's not really like we're on teams... but if you're interested I suppose I have no reason to say no.

[housewolf]

We aren't, but...

[He trails off, expression getting complicated.]

Mine or yours?

[holeful]

Queen Medb kicked me out of our room, so...

[All the more reason to use it, one might argue.]

[housewolf]

Mine works.
