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.

If it's a lazy nap, then it's Sloth.
If it's a "hate everything, goodbye" nap, then it's Despair.

Right?

Mmm... Maybe? I guess true sloth is not caring about anything at all, so hating things should be despair. Or wrath, sometimes.

[ He nods. ]

I think the simplest way to differentiate the latter would be whether aggression or acting hatred comes out of it. Meanwhile, despair would be debilitating.

...What's your indulgence, if you don't mind me asking?

[ oh. she shows off her own hand-- she's still wearing her gloves, but it glows through it, so, she's got them purple scales ]

Greed. So I just need to want things, I guess. [ want ALL the things, to be specific, ]

Well, that at least seems pretty straightforward. Want things you don't have, want more than what you already have, yeah?

You wouldn't happen to be one of the people who's been taking stuff from the common rooms, would you? [ He doesn't sound accusatory though. Kind of mildly amused? ]

What, like the seventeen knives or literally all the bleach? [ she kind of laughs ] Sure. I'm hoarding it all up in my room like a shrine to weirdness.

Well, you never know. We've yet to see what Greed looks like to my knowledge, they could definitely be a weirdo.

...Seriously though, why all the bleach. [ COME ON. ]

Aren't they all kind of weirdos so far?

[ the judgment is real. speaking of: ]

I don't know! But at least we've still got the rest of the detergent? Who knows what they're planning with that bleach, though.

Fair enough. The cult robes don't help them.

[ He puts a hand on his forehead. And sighs. ]

Bleach is a dangerous chemical, having all of it just be... gone by who knows is, to say the least, a little concerning.

Hooded robes are so out of fashion.

[ this is her agreeing cult robes bad. but: ]

Hopefully they just... really like to be clean?

[ Grace and Steven for Team "Shittalks Everyone's Fashion" please and thanks.

He does a rolling shrug, sighing heavily and shaking his head. What's a man to do!! ]

At least bleach isn't subtle. If someone goes on a wild cleaning spree with it, we'll know.

They must have used some of it on the cheese incident already.

[ The way everyone calls it the cheese incident is so distressing. ]

...You think it was the bleach thief? The note left behind in orange suggests it was those Avatars that replaced everything back to new.

[ the CHEESE ]

Oh, the rest, sure, but the cheese was cleaned up before that. If they didn't use bleach, they've got a lot more patience than I do.

Whoever cleaned up the cheese whiz before everything got replaced is officially my only ally in this hellhole. [ He's soulless. Deadpan. ]

Even if they stole all the bleach?

[ she could stand to look less amused at his despair, but, also, no ]

...I'll consider it if they share.

[ Please laugh at him Grace. ]

[ she absolutely is thanks ]

They definitely won't.

Won't you have a little faith in them? [ Come on, tip the scales a little. ]

Hmm. No, but I can lie about it if it makes you feel better?

Yes.

Douse me in the sweet oblivion of ignorance.

[ End his life. ]

They are absolutely going to share it with you and everything will be clean and proper here forever.

Wow. Thank you. It's all I ever wanted to hear in my life, now I can finally die with no regrets. World peace achieved.

You're welcome! It's amazing what we can do when we all work together.

[ now she's laying it on too thick. ]

[ Yeah, you can almost physically feel the sardonic irony. ]

God, people make things hard. [ But he feels better! ] So glad you agree.
