7rings | 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.

Perfect! [ she claps harrow's hand with both of hers, joyous ] Harrow, we'll both make up for our sins like this for sure. Let's grab dresses and head to the chapel, quick! You'll be free of sins.

Yes, of course! I'll meet you there, Grace! Nothing can stop me!

[But unfortunately, she starts running, and then happens to glance over at the TV and sees that it has started playing pornography. She gasps, furious, and stumbles backwards in shock and horror that even now, sin is following her.]

No - no - I'm so close! I'm so close to marriage!

[As she stumbles backwards, she trips and falls into the hot tub, knocking her head against the edge of it before sinking below the water.]

[Just watching.]

This is divine retribution for drowning me the other week. It's only right to let it happen.

[YANKS HARROW OUT OF THE HOT TUB IN A PANIC]

[Groggily opening her eyes.]

Hurry, there's still time. Carry me to the chapel.

You hit your head - shouldn't we get you medical treatment first...?!

No, I'll be fine. I'm in perfect condition to be married. If I'm wrong about that, then let God strike me down now.

[Trying to get to her feet, soaking wet.]

[

well. she's a god! and she thinks harrow may be wrong. it wouldn't be very virtuous to let her make a big mistake, would it?

shi qingxuan pushes harrow over.]

You've been struck down.

No! You can't stop me! This wedding will happen -

[She trips and falls back in the hot tub.]

[oh crap

she yanks her out of it again]

Hurry! The chapel! This time it has to work!

[she looks conflicted but -

it's what harrow wants? what's more virtuous, helping a friend follow her heart or keeping her from making a big mistake...?!

she sweeps harrow up into a princess carry to run her to the chapel]

[Clinging to her weakly, laying her head against her sweet chest.]

Marriage. . .

[ grace is in the chapel! She somehow made it, though she does not seem to have a dress and she is teary-eyed ]

Harrow! Oh no, has sin struck you down?!

Hurry. There's so little time.

[From where she's being held in SQX's arms.]

Please, Shi Qingxuan! Marry us! Quickly, before I'm overcome by sin!

Wait, but you haven't even seen a fortune-teller to determine if this an auspicious day for your marriage yet.

Shi, we don't have time! She's losing herself as we speak! Look at her, overcome with desire for flesh!

I--

[well she was going to help but harrow is taking matters into her own hands]

Tch.

Forget about this sinner, Grace. I'll do it myself.

[Shoving her way out of SQX's arms, and going to take Grace in hers.]

Are you ready, Grace?

[offended!]

Who are you calling a sinner?! I'll have you know I'm a paragon of virtue!

[Sinner! Why didn't you remove her hand from your thigh!]

[BECAUSE YOU PROBABLY WOULD HAVE JUST PUT IT BACK?]

[ ignoring sqx like, entirely, holding harrow in her arms ]

Ready. Nothing can stop this wedding. We will both be free of sin forever from this. I'll save you, Harrow, and save myself at the same time.

[Also ignoring SQX entirely.]

That's true. Nothing will stop our wedding, not ever.

[She closes her eyes, and softly recites - ]

Oh, Grace. Sweet, sweet Grace. You have saved me from a life of sin. When I look into your eyes, I know that you are pure of body and of heart. I have truly been blessed, to be given this chance to spend the rest of my life with you.

By the power vested in me by God, with this perfect, sinfree kiss, I thee wed.

[She will lean in for a smooch. One perfect smooch, and then they will be really and truly meme married.]

[ Grace ran the opposite way to the chapel, so she misses this and can't save harrow from drowning.

she is having her own self-talk ]

I'll make up for everything I've done with this wedding! Nothing can bring me down now. The past is in the past and I'm letting it go! I need the purest, most perfect wedding dress to bring about this joyous occasion.

[ she gasps ]

Wait. If I take the dress from the closet, wouldn't that be stealing? Oh, no. How can I get married like this? I'm so close, too!

[ grace, harrow is drowning
grace: this isn't about her ]
