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.

Hmm.




The new one, with all the stars? That one's pretty nice. Or the kitchen.

[shiftingwinds]

Those are both great choices!

[aubins]

Still have no idea how they basically trapped the night sky in a room, but it's nice to look at regardless.

[shiftingwinds]

Magic, probably.

[it's technology you fool]

[aubins]

[ ye oldes ye fools ]

What sort though? I can't think of any spells that can do that kind of thing.

[shiftingwinds]

It could just be a sort of magic that is common to this place - there have certainly been things here that I've never seen in my own world.

[aubins]

A lot of that's been attributable to machinery though, hasn't it?

[shiftingwinds]

Well, yes - but it could be magic that powers it, couldn't it?

[aubins]

In a roundabout way. But... magic paired with machinery?

[shiftingwinds]

Well, why not? They're both useful.

[aubins]

I can wrap my head around one better than the other right now.

[shiftingwinds]

I suppose that's fair enough.

[aubins]

Why, do you have some secret talent for machinery you're not sharing with the class?

[shiftingwinds]

Not in the slightest - I'm much the same way. Magic makes much more sense to me than machinery.

[aubins]

Yet here we are, surrounded by one and not the other.

[shiftingwinds]

I suppose if nothing else it could be an opportunity to learn.

[aubins]

Like learning how to text. And how to use a kettle.

[shiftingwinds]

Those have come in handy so far!

[aubins]

I haven't used the texting so much, but I'm starting to think I should... even with the limitations.

[shiftingwinds]

It's pretty fun! If you want to practice, you can send me a message anytime. Miss Misa was offering to teach people, too.

[aubins]

Will do. I want to try those emote things at some point. Like the little pictures?

[shiftingwinds]

You should! They're very fun!

[you can practically hear a sparkle emoji in her voice]

[aubins]

[ oh. he makes a come here motion with his hand. ]

Show me some?

[shiftingwinds]

Look at these! Pretty, right?

[she comes over an pulls up an emoji on her phone -]

🌸

[aubins]

[ oh. he's leaning in to see! ]

And you can just make that with... something on the phones?
