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.

No! There's no end in sight when it comes to this miserable plane of physicality!

[it's a wail of despair as he wipes gak out of his eyes, flicking it accidentally on to both grell and vlad with zero awareness.

wait]


Oh, were you talking about the tunnel? It's--oh shit!

[the 'oh shit' is mostly in reaction to... well, that the water coming in is no longer water. but tiny mechanical spiders.]
niceguyferatu: (and how could i forget how caroline's)

Well I won't run us into a wall if you tell me if one's approaching!

[ in the meantime, he'll peel one sock off his face and start whipping it around to try to smash spiders out of his face as they fly by him. ]

[Her hair is also in her face because why wouldn't it be.]

I can't see shit!

There's no wall! Just spiders!

[kaz is whole hog flailing his shoes at this point, hitting anything even vaguely spider-shaped.]

This is easily stacking up to be one of the worst days of my life!
niceguyferatu: (and how could i forget how caroline's)

[personal profile] niceguyferatu 2021-02-12 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
[ well. at least they're not in danger of crashing into a wall.

but, for the sake of spicing it up, i am going to say that there's a teeny tiny lil waterfall along the path. and at the speed they're going, it means they absolutely FLY off the edge, fully airborne along the river's path.

everything is in slow motion and vlad watches his life flash before his eyes--and also before this endless stream of fUCKING SPIDERS ]
brightred: (I won't let you in again)

[personal profile] brightred 2021-02-12 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
[WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO HER??

The boat shoots off the waterfall and lands with a shuddering thump. That can't be good for the hole in the boat.

[personal profile] bachelorbored 2021-02-12 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
[the thump is followed by a sickening crunch.

i have rolled a die, and it has told me that the motor, such as it was, has now detached from the boat.

in a way, this is good! there was spiders on it. in another way, this is bad! vlad is holding a detached motor in his hands, which is still on full power.

kaz does the thing you're told to do on airplanes when there's a water landing, and covers his head with both hands.]
niceguyferatu: (i can tell you like me)

[personal profile] niceguyferatu 2021-02-12 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
[ well.

with a very inelegant yell, Vlad jolts under the weight of suddenly having to support the motor himself. He overcorrects and ends up swinging it overhead, motorblades at the bottom still whirring away at top speed.

watch out, motherfuckers. he's got a makeshift chainsaw now.

at least it can cut through the spiders, probably, right? ]

WATCH WHAT YOU'RE DOING!

[Grell hears that noise and looks back, while ducking.

And gets slime to the face.
]
bachelorbored: (十一η•ͺ)

[personal profile] bachelorbored 2021-02-12 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
[there they are. both slimed, both yelling.]

Ah! Oh my god, this is cuckoo bananas!

[kaz still has his head down while screaming this, but he does steal a peek up

and when it becomes completely clear that vlad is not doing anything to control the flying motor, he just

attempts to push him overboard?

it's not a yeet. it's more of a scram. this is fine.]
niceguyferatu: (i'm damn precious)

[personal profile] niceguyferatu 2021-02-12 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
You little--!

[ Vlad doesn't have time to say more than that, because Kaz's shove throws him off balance, and as he falls one way, his arms fall the other way, dropping the spinning motorblades right down the middle of the boat itself, cutting off....oh, let's say the front third of it or so.

Vlad has fallen overboard and is now drowning with the spiders. But it's not like the boat is faring any better either, at this point. ]

[Goo to the face, a motor hitting the boat like, right next to her head (did you cut her hair Vlad??????), and the boat just, falling to pieces in an incredibly stupid way...

She's absolutely furious, as she sputters in the spider water.]

WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?
bachelorbored: (ε…«η•ͺ)

[personal profile] bachelorbored 2021-02-12 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
[there's a terrible noise, and kaz is now yelling in the water. he flounders, a patent leather shoe in each hand, flapping and paddling. shaking his hair out of his face, he eyes the sinking craft miserably.]

I was trying to help get us out of harm's way, until he [here, he gestures at Vlad, wherever the fuck he is now, with a shoe] tried to kill us!

[kaz isn't sticking around to see what comedy cartoon shit happens next, and is just. booking it, swimming down the rest of the river.



he spits out a mechanical spider, and screams in a mix of disgust and despair]


Fuck this!
niceguyferatu: (i can see the day that minnie-mae)

[personal profile] niceguyferatu 2021-02-12 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[ vlad is still in the boat, against all odds, but like. it's not like that means much, really, with the state the boat's in now. ]

You're the one who tried pushing me overboard with a live motor in my hands, you little charlatan!
brightred: (20)

[personal profile] brightred 2021-02-13 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
YOU'RE BOTH IDIOTS! [Grell is yelling, soaking wet, hair full of spiders, stomping along through the water.]
