Week 1 Mingle

[probe]

POPULATION: 35

Good morning, starshines. It is another beautiful day here on the base and it’s the start of a new week!

Good thing, too. After the deaths of Tamaki Suoh and Beauregard, the tension around the base may be a bit higher than it was before. Should anyone try to contact the deceased or review their profiles, they will find that they have been deleted from everyone's phones.

Or maybe you don't care and this is life as usual. That's fine, too. With everything in working order once again, the elevator reveals that it may now visit the second floor. Perhaps it’s worth checking out these new areas, free for exploration.

While you can't contact the deceased, the Avatars are once again available via their eight symbols. Shoot them a message, have a chat with them, and see what you can learn. Perhaps you'll find it easier this week.

But...while adjusting to life here may be easier to handle, you may find other things which used to come easy have been tempered this week. Are you well-known for your swordfighting skills? Suddenly you'll find you can barely hold a blade. Do you pride yourself on your sociable personality? A crippling shyness may overwhelm you, making it difficult to speak to people at all. As the week goes on, it becomes clear that the special trait or skill you've invested so much time and energy in is no longer something that comes easily to you.

Looks like it's back to the basics.

[aubins]

[ very good. ]

Very impressive. [ gluttony is paul hollywood.............. ] Have you always enjoyed things like this? Cooking, baking...

[probe]

[stop]

I enjoy the challenge of them. Cooking and baking is only a small portion of what I can do.

[aubins]

[ he's IMPRESSED ]

Oh? What other talents do you have?

[probe]

Cleaning, tailoring, tutoring, construction, attendant, chauffeur, custodian, dining arrangements, estate management, overseer of employees, accounts payable, bookkeeping, nightwatchman, acquisitions.

[aubins]

[ .... huh! ]

That's a pretty big list.

[probe]

I am a jack-of-all-trades.

[aubins]

Not a master of none though. [ he's going in for another one of those tartes. yum? yum. ]

[probe]

I do excel at every single one.

[aubins]

[ SQUINTS SO VERY HARD ]

[ yuri just leans back a little. ]

Really? No slightly crisp pastry cases because they caught in the oven? No accidentally putting the knives and forks around the wrong way at the dinner table?

[probe]

There is not room for less than perfection. That is never the case.

[aubins]

Never? Not even when you were starting out and learning?

[probe]

I am a quick study.

[aubins]

It ... sounds like it. [ wow. ]

Okay, what aren't you good at.

[probe]

There is not anything I am not good at.

[aubins]

[ okay well give him a moment to duck that ego there, gluttony. ]

... Really.

[probe]

[ }:> ]

Yes, really.

[aubins]

That just makes me want to find something you're really not good at. Sounds like an interesting challenge.

[probe]

I accept.

[aubins]

[ instant concern, but that's fine. probably. ]

I'll have a think about it.

[probe]

Afraid of making deals? You made one to get here.

[aubins]

Oh, no. I'll have to think about what you might not be good at.

[ ... ] My deal quota is all full up though. Allow me this as a little fun?

[probe]

Very well. Whenever you are ready, so shall I be.

[aubins]

[ haha this is fine ]

I’ll try not to disappoint.
