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.

[Part of him wants to ask about all that, but somehow it seems rude. For now, best to keep it to himself.]

I could use it.

[His nails are not nearly as long.]

Oh, you have one on your neck too.

[ She also has questions but why would she ask them, that's silly.

Instead, to return the favor and because her nails are also longer than Omi's (not nothing compared to his roommate's), she's moving forward to practice what she just learned to slip and slide that leech off Douman's neck. ]

I do hope the entire ride won't be like this.

[And removing the leach from Omi's hand! There you go. Douman smiles at their handiwork, smiling, and-]

Ah-!

[Well, she made good work of that leech. Doman murmurs, moving to rub at the area of their neck.]

I'm sure if the leeches are all there is, we should be fine! We should be...hm.

[Squinting ahead.]

Is it just this priest, or does the way ahead look...small?

Thanks.

[Looking forward...]

Spoke too soon...

The boat's not gonna fit through that.

Maybe if we turned it to the side?

[ At a glance... yeah, they're both right, that doesn't look anywhere near wide enough. ]

That or we'd have to sacrifice part of the boat... I doubt any of us minds getting a bit wet in this excursion?

[ Since if they turn it to the side, obviously no one is gonna be riding in it. ]

If you are quite alright with more friends in the form of leeches. Hehe.

[DON'T HEHE ABOUT THIS]

Can the boat be cut, though? It seems...quite sturdy.

We won't get any further if we don't. [Time to make friends? He can lose a little blood, it's fine.] The water's shallow, so it should be okay.

Did anybody bring something to cut it with?

Unfortunately no. I'd no idea that sharp objects would be involved in their summons.

[ It's fine, they can wade. ]

Alas. Save for my nails, I am quite ill equipped for such things.

[They are NOT going to rip off part of a boat...unless.............?]

Though if there was something loose, perhaps, I could attempt it?

You'd need a saw for wood like this.

[No ripping the boat, clown!

Omi steps out of the boat and politely waits for his companions to do the same.]

If there was a loose enough... [ No, guys.

Primrose finally sighs and then steps off the boat into the probably leech-infested water. Ew. ]

You know best, Omi! Yes!

[And time to jingle on over into the water! Douman is wearing like three layers of robes here, save for the exposed abs, so this is. Rather uncomfortable.]

Mmmmm! Shall we do this quickly? Let's do it quickly! I suppose we shall try to overturn the boat?

[Full length pants mean he's mostly protected from leeches. They could still get in if they're dedicated enough.]

Just on it's side. If we flip it all the way over, we'll have the same width problem.

[He'll make his way to one end of the boat.]

[ Yeah whatever, she'll be the poor soul with the mostly bare legs because she's a dancer, SHE MADE THIS LIFE CHOICE ]

Quickly sounds wise.

[ As she splashes her way over to join Omi to begin heaving the boat onto one side. ]

[Well, this is great! Wonderful bonding in Leechville. Douman actually shoves themselves in between the other two, just because they can (and also to be closer to Omi <3).]

[Its good to have a big 6'7" beekcafe of a horrible clown, because with their added strength, it won't take much to turn this boat around.]

[Also a leech is now on their nose, probably having fallen from the ceiling. Its. Fine. It's fine.]

[Thanks, cloommate! If they're all buff for their size, it's not hard to get the boat through the narrow corridor. Sure, it scrapes against the sides, but nobody said it had to get through undamaged.

His hands are once again bitten by leeches. That'll just have to wait!]

[ Let's not talk about where the leeches are or not. Primrose certainly has felt their slimy touch more than once and she is absolutely going to ditch the both of them for a long hot bath after this.

So the cloommates can also bond or something, because Douman sure went in for it. Valid. She respects you, giant clown beefcake.

Just as much as she respects being through that corridor so they can right the boat again, because the look on her face all but screams Unhappy. ]

[Leech party, leech party, LEECH PARTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]

[And wow, more leeches on the abs! Wonderful. Terrible. More terrible than wonderful, anyways. But obviously its time to just move behind the boat.]

Nnnnnn! Time to push the boat forward so we may progress dutifully on through this tunnel!

[Leech rave. Suck that blood!!!

Please don't.

Omi moves to go behind the boat. Since behind the boat is also backwards- the jack in the music begins.

There's a brief look of confusion, before he shakes it off.]

How long do you think it'll go?

[The fewer leeches on his body, the better.]

Hopefully not for much longer. [ Especially with that music?? Creepy.

But heave-ho, boat flippin' time!! ]

Oh! What wonderful music!

[JUST GOING TO

HUM ALONG TO THIS

WITH A LEECH ON THEIR NOSE]

[Also pushing the boat forward through the narrow space! God there are so many leeches probably biting all up and down their abs by now.]

[At least somebody here is having fun?

It's hard to stay worried or upset when someone's clearly having such a good time.

Shoving that boat and then putting it back around. It'll definitely have water and some leeches in it after that maneuver.]

Maybe it's just leeches and music after this?

[Just??]

... You two certainly seem to be on the same length of optimism.

[ Primrose, now with leeches on her stomach, silently screaming as they maneuver a boat. ]

One needs to keep the mind free, to distract one's self, you know! Ahh, but these loathsome creatures are...getting on my nerves...

[Especially with the fact that there's just...so many of them...ugh.]

Anyways! Time to get back in! Leeches and all! Hup!

[AND JUST CRAWLING BACK INTO THE BOAT SAYONARA LEECH WATER]

We can't really deal with the source of these leeches. Sometimes acceptance is best.

[Back in the boat! Goodbye leech river!

There are still leeches in the boat.

Tragic.]

... I'll be really happy when we're out of here.
