7rings | WEEK 7 MINGLE

POPULATION: 18 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 death of Tartaglia Childe...well, perhaps there isn't any tension at all? Hard to say. 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 eighth 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.

If you aren't too distracted, that is. For the most part, it may feel as though there isn't anything strange about this week. Everything proceeds as normal and life on the base is calm again. But every now and then, you'll feel a burning in your hand right where your tattoo is as it loses its color and fades to black temporarily. A sudden swell courses through your veins, almost as if being injected with a higher amount of your specific indulgence. You'll find it nearly impossible to do anything else until you act on it, draining the indulgence away and bringing color back to your marking. This won't always happen, and this won't always happen at a convenient time. It may be best to plan ahead. After all...if you ignore it for too long, you may find yourself changing. Those aligned with Envy may find themselves with several new eyes. Those aligned with Gluttony may find claws and a tail beginning to grow. Those aligned with Pride may feel a sharp pain in their head as a crown of thorns embeds itself into their skin. But the sooner you act, the sooner these changes will disappear.

Dedication's sweet, isn't it? Do try to give it your all.

Something to consider, and I have no clue myself: where are these items even coming from?

I was wondering this, as well. When I got the scroll, it had the same wording as the other messages did - "A special..."

[ mutter ] "weward."

Mine as well.

Does it want us to know? I suppose that would make 'playtime' easier on it.

It would make the comparison we've given to a cat playing with its food all the more apt.

... Going by the "congwatulations", it'd be the creature itself, right? But why?

Maybe its way of making the game fun for itself? This is all in the name of entertainment, right?

... That's possible, but it's really annoying.

Mm. I don't like feeling toyed with.

It wants power, not to be entertained, though. So...

[ ?? ]

I think it wants both.

I agree entirely.

...some creatures feed off of the terror of others. For all we know, it's getting power from our frustration with all of this.

[ ... ]

That would probably fall under despair. Since our indulging is making it more powerful.

[(sasuke voice)]

Tch.

[ tch indeed. ]

...at any rate, it's been getting what it wants out of us so far. I think it's high time we take what we want from it.

[ takeru voice ] Tch.

And, according to the dead, we need to continue indulging.

This is just a guess, but I'd wager on this serving their own needs as well. The creature likely consumes them if we don't do enough.

[ mm. ]

Like Vira and I saw in the Life Support room.

If we stop, apparently the creature will 'throw a tantrum'.

[ by eating someone ]

...It's been hinted we can get the dead returned to us, hasn't it? What if we got them returned to us, somehow, and then stopped indulging altogether?

Maybe this is secretly a good twin, evil twin situation.

Can we ditch the evil twin and keep the good one, then?

I asked the same question. Especially since the texts we're getting them with does the whole... uwu shit...
