WEEK 2 MINGLE

[probe]

POPULATION: 32

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 Grell Sutcliff, Kaz Kaan, and HK-47, 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.

Then again...last weekend was a bit of a mess, wasn't it? Perhaps you would prefer to leave it all behind you. Lucky for you, the elevator reveals that it may now visit the third floor. It may be worth checking out these new areas, free for exploration. If you're feeling incredibly ambitious, you can also take a more in-depth look.

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.

On the bright side, all of your skills are in working order once again. Cherish your gifts, little sinners. You would hate to lose them again wouldn't you? But even if you did, you would still have your memories of them. Memories are important, aren't they? Things meant to remind you, and things to motivate you. Your most tragic, painful and even downright embarrassing memories shape who you are as a person, and this week you'll find that others will be witness to these as well. This may occur when you're in close proximity to someone, or it may be when you brush past them. Even the slightest eye contact may set off this sharing of memories, and your deepest secrets will be harder to keep.

Hide all you'd like. You can't outrun your past.

I did have somebody I would call partner. But that was a long time ago.

[kokytos]

...Is he a blond man?

[housewolf]

How did you know that?

[Oh. Is this going both ways now.]

[kokytos]

[ ...So he's right. Then that means...? ]

...An image flashed into my head, when you said that. Clear as day.

[housewolf]

[...]

I also saw an image of your partner. I'm not sure if I should apologize?

[kokytos]

Oh? Klaus? [ He blinks in surprise... which immediately turns into an expression of furrowed brows and a slight scowl. ]

Damn -- is this what we're in for, this week?

[housewolf]

Looks like we're sharing.

[Have you ever heard a man sound more resigned.]

[kokytos]

[ He immediately brings a hand to his face, which then passes back through his hair. He looks super resigned, too. ]

Fuck... right when we thought it couldn't get more inconvenient after last week...

[housewolf]

That bad, huh?

[ Most of Omi's are not nearly as brutal as what Omi's seen from Steven. ]

[kokytos]

[ He shuts his mouth, wrinkling his nose. ]

...Well, it's more the matter of clearly, some memories or images are being shared that neither you nor I have control over, at the moment, right. It's bad on principle of invasion of privacy.

[housewolf]

It's not great, I don't like it.

At the same time, it feels less awful than losing part of yourself.

[kokytos]

[ ...Mm. Steven has a face that looks like he disagrees maybe, but doesn't expand. ]
