WEEK ZERO: INTRO MINGLE
POPULATION: 37
There's the soft, chiming ding of an elevator as you slowly grow conscious. You remember the sound of a voice whispering in your ear, and then a very gentle, easy darkness as you fell asleep.
Then the elevator jolts, and you promptly ram into some of the thirty or so other people also waking up from their nap. Time to trample people on your way out! Be careful not to rip your flattering outfit with light up furry ears of an animal of your choice. On this elevator there are a total of 10 buttons and they're all lit up! But they don't work. A shame. The elevator doesn't go anywhere else.
In any case, once you exit the elevator, you'll find that you have a decently wide area to explore. There doesn't seem to be any sort of exit to the outside world, but that's okay. You didn't want to leave without what you came for, right? Besides, it's wonderful here: the temperature is perfect, every surface is as soft as clouds, and the atmosphere is so, so inviting. The base itself is low-lit in fluorescent neon colors which shift and pulse over time, and there's a soft, reassuring humming sound under your feet. It would be comforting if you didn't feel like you were being watched every time you walk along the hallways.
But hey, don't worry about that! Maybe you should be more concerned with the phone in your pocket! The phones have a few functions, as well as a low pixel camera. Pictures are in black and white, so no brightly colored selfies for you. Oh, and while you're taking those selfies, you might notice the symbol of your Avatar tattooed and glowing faintly on the back of your hand. Hope you're fine with impromptu body mods.
Eventually during your wandering, you'll find your room with roommates included! On the floor of your room, there is a big gift box with your name on it. Upon opening it, you will be absolutely obliterated with glittery confetti. But once you manage to get past that, the gift box contains the following:
✦ your item from home
✦ a pair of boxer-briefs labeled "ball hammock"
✦ a stress ball that looks suspiciously like a boob
✦ a rainbow bath bomb
✦ a Polaroid camera with 10 instant film
✦ a frozen steak in a vacuum-sealed pouch
✦ a blue and pink dual flashlight; one end has a normal white bulb, and one end has a blacklight bulb
✦ a tiny crown
Welcome to your new home. Take some time to look around, talk to your fellow indulgers. All of you can see each other's symbols on the back of your hands - maybe it'll strike up a conversation. After all, there's no better way to get to know each other than talking about your sins on the first date!

[ There's no hesitation in her answer. She flashes a victory sign. ]
ara i hate you
[Just like that? Douman gives the lady a bow.]
Forgive my rudeness. A pleasure to meet your acquaintance, then. Are you a magus, miss...?
i couldn't resist i'm sorry
[ Isn't that obvious? She's wearing her crown. ]
no subject
[A wide grin.]
And over what do you rule, I wonder?
no subject
[ Just your everyday things. ]
no subject
[Though...that first one.]
The beach? Which one? All beaches?
no subject
[ She is going to be the queen of all the beaches. ]
Isn't that evident?
no subject
[WAITING FOR THREE YEARS DOWN THE ROAD WHEN THEY RELEASE SUMMER DOUMAN]
no subject
But she looks a little affronted at that. ]
No. Isn't it clear that I'd rule everything under my dominion?
[ her QUEENLY AURA, douman! GET WITH THE PROGRAM. ]
no subject
Oh, please forgive me. That wasn't meant to be an insult to you. Of course it is clear. You hold yourself as nobility should. Crown and all.
no subject
anyway
Medb doesn't look appeased. ]
Somehow, I doubt the sincerity in your words.
no subject
[And a deep, deep bow.]
If you feel you cannot trust me or my words, and you are to be my Master...then you can take revenge on me as you see fit. It is only just.
no subject
[ Because she is assuming that's what they meant by Master. ]
no subject
[Douman draws up, letting out a sigh.]
Honestly, I still don't know why I'm Alter Ego...its such a strange class, isn't it?
no subject
[ The implication of that class. ]
There are benefits and drawbacks to every class, but that says something about you. Are you a wish, or are you something that's rejected?
no subject
[A glance down at the ground. Embarrassment? Shame? Confusion?]
I...don't really know. My memories aren't...all there, you know.
no subject
That's strange. That usually doesn't happen unless....
[ Well. There aren't that many cases. ]
no subject
[Mmm?]
But it is strange, yes. I can only hope it doesn't interfere with my duties as a Servant.
no subject
[ Does she mean in the way of Jeanne Alter, or is she calling them a liar?
Mystery. ]
I don't like being disappointed, you know.
no subject
[Douman repeats, and their eyes are dark, quite dark...]
[But they just smile.]
Of course you don't. You're a queen, after all. And all must fall in your line. I will strive not to do such things as fall out of it.
no subject
You'll just have to tell me when you can, hm? If you're a fake or not.
[ If they've fallen in or out of line. ]
no subject
[And the words come out like a purr.]
My Master.
no subject
[ Her smile is as inviting as their purr. ]
My Servant. I'll be expecting great things from you.
