WEEK 7 MINGLE

[probe]

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.

They are super haunted. And cute! Or, well, not this one.

[A beat.]

God, why was Envy knitting one the week he babysat us?

[envy did you teach it how to become a furby]

[bonetiddies]

So. . . what does knowing it's a furby get us. What are their characteristics. Their weak points.

[dotcom]

They wake you up in the middle of the night, and then you take out their batteries.

[sengokus]

I forgot they fucking talk.

[dotcom]

This explains a lot about it, actually.

[sengokus]

[wait a goddamn second things are clicking]

—FURBY FUCK RACE?!

[liuli]

[

what ]

[gamerbrain]

Heist.

[sengokus]

Is that better or worse?!

[dotcom]

Didn't I say to stop saying that?

[enfangs]

Wow, sounds like they sure gave you trauma in your childhood.

[sengokus]

Apparently in my adulthood too?!

[enfangs]

[he consolingly pats mineo on the shoulder

also i have nowhere else to put this but randomly white has a healing bite mark on his neck but apparently of the non-sexy kind because there's also a bit of dried blood but anyway back to furby trauma]

[bonetiddies]

In this case I think the batteries are us.

[gamerbrain]

We're wish-fuel!

Well, the dead first. Then us. Then the NPCs.

[bonetiddies]

What do you mean by that, Aoi? Is there a distinction between being fuel for wishes versus being fuel for the furby?

[gamerbrain]

... Dunno!

[dotcom]

It seems like it. Which we knew, technically.

[toesies]

Well... it gets us a big fat nothing. They're normally just toys. So, this was totally useless?

[bonetiddies]

Sheila, please. I like to be on even ground. Do I need to go to the library and read about these things.

[toesies]

I'm serious. I cannot think of a single way knowing it's a furby helps us.

[gamerbrain]

Boop boop...

[ SHE ONLY BROUGHT BACK SO MUCH INTEL, PWEASE ]

[toesies]

[HOW IS SHE SUPPOSED TO INTERPRET FURBY, AOI...]

[alteracion]

I don't think the appearance matters so much. Like... it looks like a furby, but that doesn't mean it is one. We know that it was abandoned and that it decided on its own it wanted to grow stronger. We just... don't know how it's doing that or when it started to want it, since the Avatar's group found it when it was still mostly AI, right?

[sengokus]

Are they cute? Uh, I don't know. Maybe it always had this... form...?
