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.

[Finding them in the tea room! Also walking around in her socks for whatever reason, her high heeled boots held in one hand. She waves hello with the hand that isn't currently occupied.]

I see you're committed to your aesthetic.

[sheila, your feetsies....]

Who would I be if not committed to the aesthetic?

[toesies]

[Sometimes, you forget how to walk in heels. It's fine.]

I love that you're owning it. But when you say it like that, it sounds little sad.

I am confident in this form. Are you not in yours?

[toesies]

Well, obviously! I am loving everything about my form. But what I mean is— [Gesticulating, gesturing at the whole room.] We are also so much more than just our aesthetics, you know?

You are correct, Mrs. Hammond. Is it strange for you? This is something rather familiar to me on a periodic basis, especially when the weather is nice.

[toesies]

Not a lot of places where you can sit down for tea like this in the valley, so sort of? But not exactly. It's seriously pretty, though. You're lucky if this view is what you're used to.

Our periods of time must not match up as well as others. One day, you should enjoy a meal, or drink outdoors in the warm sun.

Perhaps on a spring day like this one mimicked.

[toesies]

Maybe I will. I have not been getting as much sunlight as I should lately, it's true.

Is spring your favorite season?
