WEEK 6 MINGLE
POPULATION: 19
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 Aoi Mukou, Lenore and Mahito, 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. Strange things are happening, little sinners. Don't be shy now.
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.
Or maybe you won't? It's been a very emotional six weeks, hasn't it? Surely you're feeling conflicted about many things. Happiness. Sadness. Anger. Disgust. These feelings are all an important part of you, and this week it seems as though you'll be sharing them with others. Regardless of who you're speaking with, you will find that you will be subjected to feeling their emotions, and they yours. But lucky for you, there's a way to fix that! When two people settle down to patiently talk these feelings out, the connection will be broken.
...until the next time you see each other, that is.
Get in touch with your sensitive side, everyone. Maybe you'll learn something new this week.

In any case, Yuel lands safely on the ground, though some of the blood and gore gushing out of the beholder does shower down on her - ] Gross!
[ But finally, she can actually move again, and when the beholder comes crashing into the ground from the combined might of Gu Yun and Molly's attack, she doesn't hesitate before launching at it, driving both her swords through it's marshmallow-y body, while thinking very intensely about the revelation that Harrow has slept with two people.
And then the ground starts to shake. ]
no subject
yuel's attack is probably enough to put this poor thing out of its miserable simulated existence and it shrieks and wails and spews gore on everyone in its dying thrashes while the ground suddenly begins to open beneath their feet]
Do not drop my phone! I need that back!
no subject
he shoves the phone into the front of his iron armor (there's a loud clang clang noise as he does) and once molly does. something. the turn based hell they've been put in releases gu yun from it's clutches.
gu yun then swoops downwards in an arc, avoiding bats on the way down, and drops his wind slasher in the direction of the beholder corpse, where it rattles along with the ground. it's the simulation room, he'll just make another one, so, he yells - ] Incoming, watch your hands!
[ wouldn't it be an asshole move to just leave them both. or only grab one. however, i rolled this, so! like a bird of prey, he comes straight down out of the sky and grabs molly around the waist with one arm, yuel around the waist with another, and sends a burst of steam and purple smoke through their little arena as he drags them both up and off of the ground, one under each arm like two bags of purple potatoes.
hope you aren't scared of heights!! there are still bats everywhere also. ]
no subject
Yuel is definitely internally oohing and ahhing at Gu Yun's dashing rescue of them, remaining tucked against his side without any argument (unlike someone else).
She's using her swords to swipe at the bats swarming around them, talking to Molly without looking over, ] Any updates?!
[ Except whoops, his phone went down Gu Yun's front... Guess he'll have to retrieve it. ]
no subject
the phone absolutely buzzes while it's down the front of gu yun's armor, but both of mollys hands are occupied and he isn't sure he can get in there like this--]
Let me just--
[Well there isn't that much time to consider it because
a very very large eyeball on a stalk appears out of the crack on the floor]
no subject
uh
well. he's not putting either of them down anytime soon, apparently, as he looks down and is met face to face with a very large eye stalk. ]
It was a baby? Who said anything about it being weak! Who cursed it! [ oh fuck
the new beholder's eyeball sends out some sort of ray and no, absolutely fuck that, he yells a swear and manages to barrel roll dodge out of the way of it with both molly and yuel in tow, narrowly missing whatever fucking horrifying effect was coming out of that thing. ] Find me somewhere to put you down or - do something about that!
no subject
[ They jerk in the air to avoid the attack, and the tentacle that rises up much larger than the little blob they'd been fighting earlier.
It's kind of terrifying, but the sight of it makes Yuel grin and grip her swords tighter. ]
Throw me at it!
no subject
[Wiggling!]
Throw me too! I mean, it's fucking fake. Literally the worst that can happen is a few bruises.
no subject
[ i do not perceive it
anyway molly does have a point, it's just the simulation room. there's a beat. the beholder makes a yucky noise.
fuck it, gu yun just yeets them both in the direction of the beholder who hasn't rolled initiative yet so yolo. he doesn't have his weapon now, but he does have explosives, so he falls back for the moment to make sure he's ready to support either of them if they need to be yanked out of there quickly! ]
no subject
But for now, she laughs as they're sent yeeting through the air, slicing through the first assault of tentacles that come sailing their way. Flames burst, as she delivers a blow to the beholder's soft, fleshy surface and.
It looks very cool, but wow this monster is a lot bigger than they anticipated, and it rumbles once she's landed, the tremors strong enough to knock her on her ass. ]
This thing is huge!!
no subject
Don't know how many times I've said the same thing.
[stop don't make a dumb variation on the thats what she said joke that involves yourself being a slut!! Anyway, because this is a simulation, molly's just gonna try a new move? Which is just whalloping one of the eyes with his stupid baseball bat as hard as he can. sometimes simple is best. it probably hates this!]
no subject
anyway - molly's absolutely stupid joke gets gu yun snickering like an asshole as he lets his two projectile weapons (?) go flying down upon their big beholder. yuel's flaming sword and molly's baseball bat are both very cool, and the monster screams in despair as gu yun zips back up to a more advantageous position on his "turn". ]
Incoming! [ because fuck it, might as well lean into the "we do whatever we want" of this battle - by which i mean he presses a button and pulls a tiny lever and a set of six sharp looking darts come out of the wrists of his armor in an array of piercing damage, landing a direct hit in the top of its big, ugly eyeball.
after that he's stuck there, though while the beholder charges up whatever stupid ass ray it's going to shoot at them this time. ] Just make sure to prepare yourselves adequately to handle it. Deep breaths, now.
[ stop doing this ]
no subject
In fact, Yuel moves out of turn to stab one of the nearby eyes, really not enjoying the look it has, managing to take in a deep breath as a ray bursts out with an obnoxiously loud:
UWUUUUUUUU ]
no subject
molly is now prone too, because
he fucking laughed too hard at the uwu ray and an earthquake sort of knocked him on his ass and this is all too silly]
This is the-- worst fucking monster! I hate it here!
no subject
I hate this place. [ MAGIC IS STUPID
as the monster begins its rampage (wampage?) gu yun will take his turn based combat turn to flick an interior switch on the inside of his dark armor and send out a couple of projectile arrows in a flash of bright white and purple smoke.
they explode on contact, but he does have the kindness to aim them away from yuel, simulation or not. please dodge ]
no subject
She cartwheels out of the way of Gu Yun's assault, the big beholder apparently unable to move due to turn logic and left to just quiver weakly as the three of them just rail on it.
She doesn't have a gun, but she starts to cleave at its body as though she intends to dig a whole right through it, kicking up blood and gore and anguished "uwu"s as she does so. ]
Just a little more, nya!
no subject
Anyway, molly actually bothers to get off his ass and fucking fight since it's! his turn! And as his sword sinks deep into uwuzing flesh and quivering eyes, the thing lets out a loud
IYAAAAAAAAAAA~N
and Molly now feels extremely awkward.]
Oh, please someone just kill it.
