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.

Ooh. Now there's an interesting question.

[kokytos]

[ Wow, both of you. Are you going to make me do all the work and ask me all the questions? ]

Haha, well. I think a romantic death could be nice, though I don't see myself having one. How about you two?

[gamerbrain]

Aoi is most likely to die a romantic death.

[sistocracy]

I plan on living forever.

But if I had to die, then... hmm. Perhaps in the arms of a lover, under a starry sky?

[kokytos]

[ ... ]

I like the idea of that. [ Lenore's death, he means. ] I guess this did turn into a romantic conversation, though not entirely in the expected way.

I don't think Aoi nor I are as concrete in our death wishes.

[gamerbrain]

Beneath the stars sounds nice.

[sistocracy]

Really? I'm glad you both liked it. I'm sure my sisters would just make fun of me if I said something like that in front of them.

... Oh, I believe there's a light up ahead.

[kokytos]

Ah, siblings. Sometimes, family is the most judgmental.
At the least, the Planetarium could give you something like that -- minus the dying part, hopefully.

[ CAN HE FINALLY CATCH A BREAK. He shines his flashlight towards where Lenore mentioned, squinting as the heel of his shoe rests on a skeleton's lower jaw. ]

[gamerbrain]

[ she stays quiet because she would not know. she has never had a family? ]

... Aoi doesn't want anyone to die here, though. Aoi wants to avoid Bad Ends since Aoi can't load an old save.

[sistocracy]

Oh. Good... I think.

[what is aoi even talking about, she's just going to kind of shrug at steven?]

[kokytos]

[ He just shakes his head at Lenore. He's spent a while talking to Aoi before and while he's at least got the idea of what slash who Aoi is, the concept of her being a "video game character" would be a can of worms to open with someone who doesn't even have technology. ]

...That'd be the nice outcome, wouldn't it. Nobody likes a bad ending.

[gamerbrain]

Some people do. CGs are CGs, even the ones you unlock from a Bad End.

[ sorry lenore that she is like this. ]

[sistocracy]

[it's probably best if she just accepts that aoi will never make sense to her.]

[and they've reached the end! lenore is the first to disembark.]

Well! I'm not sure what the point of all that was, but that was fun, wasn't it?
