WEEK 4 MINGLE

[probe]

POPULATION: 24

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 Omi Fushimi, Ashiya Douman and Trafalgar Law, 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.

Perhaps you expect this by now, but it seems that the elevator reveals that it may now visit the fourth 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.

Unless you're shy, of course. It seems as though your inhibitions are right back where they belong and instead this week seems...normal? Nothing seems immediately off as you go about your day, but the moment you come across another person there's the overwhelming desire to be kind. The larger your conflict is with another person, the more kind you will want to be to them. Insults can't quite make it past your lips this week, and even rude gestures are harder to display. Perhaps your kindness will even manifest in ways you don't quite expect.

Now, now. No reason to be petty.

[toyska]

Sure, thank you. I'll save some for later.

[He reaches out, scooting a few of the muffins off to the side. Snack.]

Do you need any help?

[probe]

Not help, exactly, but if you want to hang around I wouldn't mind? I can make something different if you want.

[he looks a little hopeful, maybe? hi, please just spend time with him.]

[toyska]

[Oh Envy. You poor thing.]

Of course, I'd be glad to. [He--well, he does have other places to be, but it's fine. There's no rush.] What is this place, anyway?

[This lovely little haunted(?) house...]

[probe]

It's pretty comfortable, right?

[envy hums as he stirs some more muffin batter.]

I think so, anyway.

[toyska]

Comfortable is a good word for it, yes.

[A cabinet door slams cheerfully shut all by itself behind them. It's fine.]

Is it yours?

[probe]

I wouldn't really say so?

[he's totally unbothered by the slam-- doesn't jump or anything.]

[toyska]

Oh? [He tilts his head slightly.] Will you tell me more about it?

[probe]

Well, I haven't spent a ton of time in it yet-- but it could definitely use some cleaning, for one thing.

[all the dust in the unused rooms...]

It's nice to use a normal kitchen, though, honestly? Having the vending machine around just makes the usual one feel a little weird.

[toyska]

With any luck, our comrades won't be quite as destructive as they were on arrival.

[THE DESTRUCTION. THE CHEESE WHIZ. THE FROZEN STEAKS.]

I have to agree, though even this isn't quite what I'm used to. [Though admittedly he's more-or-less adjusted to the lack of elemental energy by now.]

[probe]

I don't think that'd go over very well, here.

[watch as someone gets a cabinet door slammed into their face for trying to cause trouble.]

What's more familiar to you?

[toyska]

[Whoever designed the base should've taken a page out of the haunted house book tbh. Could've prevented a lot of problems.]

Well, most everything in Teyvat is dependent on elemental energies. We have technology, of course, but it's very different from this place.

[No space stations in Genshin. Probably.]

[probe]

Really-? So it'd be like.... water energy to run a sink, fire to make an oven work, that kind of thing?

[toyska]

Well, we still have natural elements. Not everyone is a Vision Wielder. [So you're not shit outta luck if you aren't a water bender or whatever.] But yes, it's like that.

[probe]

It sounds really interesting, honestly, I wish we had things like that-- more openly, anyway.

[he folds his arms on the countertop.]

There are people who do magic, but it's all, um. More or less an underground thing, it can't be widely known. Same with what I do.
