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.

Huh...? Back? What's back...?
Did we leave some.... body behind?
[he moves to sit up but he's disoriented enough you can probably stop him]
no subject
gently pushes him back down.]
Nope! Nobody at all. [Cheerfully! Keeping her hand there.] Do you feel like taking a nap? I think you should take a nap!
no subject
flings an arm over mineo so he can't get up. look at that seamless teamwork, sheila. ]
Definitely take a nap. We're on a nice soothing boat ride, right?
no subject
well, down he goes, i guess? there's an arm flung on him so he's also immediately going in that direction?]
Oh.... yeah! Nice boat ride with friends... Down the river to defeat the Heike... Watch out for 'em crabs... spirits....
[what?
he nuzzles his face into yuri's shoulder]
no subject
What?
[Yeah, that's all she has.]
no subject
Well that pre-answers my question of if you know what he's on about. [ ...
...
... ]
I wonder if we will run into crabs. [ ... he seems weirdly eager about that? there's a glint in his tired, drunk lil' eye. ]
no subject
Seafood dinner....!
no subject
[She is suddenly? Down to punch a crab? Excessively down to punch a crab, judging by sudden exuberance.
Is their cat a giant one, tho. Mods specified a three headed nyan but did not mention size. 🤔 Maybe they can adopt the cat instead. (No.)]
no subject
[ they seem
very eager to fight this crab that does or doesn't exist. also i don't know but they should definitely wrestle and adopt the cat. ]
no subject
mineo throws one fist into the air triumphantly as he agrees!]
Onward, troops! To defeat the giant crab....!! Heike doesn't stand a chance against the triumphant Sheila-san and Leclerc-san...!
no subject
I don't know why you're talking like that, but let's fuck that crab up!
[The crab does not exist.
And they also cannot adopt the cat. Boo! But at least they can fight it. Yay!]
no subject
he's dragging himself into a sitting position, and peering over the edge of the boat into the distance. and then he scrambles over mineo -- his knee digging into the man's gut in a way that is impossible to tell if it was intentional or not -- to squint harder into the distance. ]
There's definitely something over there. Can you see the outline?
...
If it really is a crab I'm going to be impressed.
no subject
[he deserves that - but at least he sits up a moment later, confused but alert!!]
My crab!!
[IT'S NOT A CRAB.
But there is a deep, echoing nya.]
no subject
opens her mouth
and—]
—Mrrreow?
[Confused cat noises.
The boat is also rocking from too many people moving to peer over the edge at once. Please do not(?) tip the boat over.]
no subject
-- Meow?
[ ... ]
A crab...cat?
[ THERE IS NO CRAB. ]
no subject
Crat....!!!
[DON'T SAY THAT WITH CONFIDENCE]
Bring it on!
[A louder, more aggressive sounding Mrrrooww - but like, in stereo? Oh. Three heads. There will be the splishsplash of water as the three-headed cat starts to paw toward them.]
no subject
It's a crat!
[Her one braincell has gone out the window because of the sudden urge to wrestle this cat. There is still no crab.
There is also no way this boat is staying steady with the cat pawing towards them and two idiots on the bow. Water is now splashing everywhere. The boat is tipping to the front. Nyan intensifies.]
no subject
he's getting out of the boat. he might have to climb over them boat and there's a not-zero chance that's going to be enough to make the boat eat dirt, but he's doing it anyway.
CRAT SIGHTED. ]
Think we can keep it if we beat it?
no subject
Pspspspsps....!!
[says mineo
but once sheila's all good and accounted for he's just. charging. just charging. they're all going to fight this fucking giant cat.
the cat charges back.]
no subject
Maybe, under normal circumstances, she would be smart enough to get the heck out of dodge.
But these are not normal circumstances, so she is flinging herself out of the boat to charge right at the cat.
This group is doing great.]
no subject
maybe he would be more stealthy about dodging around the cat's legs and going for a weak spot if he wasn't boat drunk, but he is so
he's just gonna tackle a kitty leg. ]
