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.

You believe me?!
no subject
Yeah? I mean -- yes. Why wouldn't I?
no subject
Why would you?
[ two sides of the same coin right now ]
no subject
Sorcerers, magic, the supernatural -- they're not very uncommon where I come from. At least, not anymore. A person with sorcery wouldn't be that odd, and actually explains your attire and attitude better. [ Because they're both odd. ]
I'd just thought you were a private teacher in a mundane society. [ In which case, you'd definitely be a weirdo, see? ]
no subject
You're a weirdo, too.
no subject
...Well, I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. My name's Steven. [ Let's just restart, man. ]
no subject
Gojou Satoru. What I told you is the truth.
[ "TOO" means they are both different. ]
no subject
Again, it's not like I don't believe you whatsoever. Though based on how you responded, I'm guessing it's not a common thing then... being able to use sorcery and all that.
no subject
[ NO MISTER!!! ]
It is uncommon—a secret from normal society, too. Is everything just out there where you're from?
no subject
If you insist, Satoru. And yeah, it pretty much is at this point. It wasn't, until three years ago when it all came forward at once -- now the entire world knows about it.
Granted, it's not exclusive to sorcery, but anything you can imagine from the Otherworld.
no subject
How is the world handling it?
[ He's curious. ]
no subject
...Interestingly, I'd say. The place that was swallowed up and changed into a mix of the human world and Beyond was New York, now Hellsalem's Lot. We who live in the city live fairly hand in hand with varying creatures, sorcerers, monsters, what have you, as our neighbours.
Outside the bubble though, naturally the rest of the world is uncertain. Some think of it as a threat, others want to curry favour with it as a new opportunity.
no subject
I see... That's most of our worries, too. [ What that outside of the bubble thinks, that is. ] Not sure if the world is ready to learn of the supernatural's existence, even though most of the population can't perceive it.
You've given me a good amount to think about! Thanks.
no subject
...You're welcome? [ SURE? ]
