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.

It's as good a guess as anything I could come up with. Though I have no idea what this 'skeleton war' has to do with anything.

Perhaps the dead wish we would look more fondly upon their memory, in which case several of them should have considered not being serial killers.

[ convincingly muffles a laugh into a cough (?) ]

Ought we hold a memorial service, or something? Burn incense? Make like a monk and attempt to pray them all into returning? Eugh.

[ sorry it's mean girl hours ]

Well, there's certainly some people I wouldn't mind doing that for, at least.

Agreed. Well, ideally, we'll figure out whatever this opportunity we're being offered is, and then they can tell us off themselves.

[ she looks a little tired when she laughs lightly. ]

Hopefully the day we can all bicker in person will come soon.

[ hm. ]

Say your piece if you wish.

[ she's too intimidated by vira so she just shrinks into herself a bit ]

[Since she's right here holding Vira's hand - ]

Aoi, it's all right. You're allowed to contribute, too.

[ aoi shakes her head at harrow. holding hands with vira makes her just as scary? ]

[...

white is still like. staying a few steps away from aoi because effect but he'll walk a bit closer.]

C'mon, Aoi. You wanna say something?

[ hmmm she hesitates but ]

There are people there that didn't kill. And there are people here who did. Aoi doesn't understand why we have to be mean when both sides are the same.

[ as much as she likes being scary... ]

It's all right if you disagree with me on something.

Have any insight about what these might mean, Aoi? Anyone on that side fancy themselves good at embroidery?

Mahito made our sweatshirts. And Omi seems good at all of those kinds of things... [ his housewife aura... ]

But Aoi doesn't think it's like they stitched these themselves and sent them over.

More like they chose the messages.

Who do you think might've chosen to send them? Or would you all decide as a group? That might help us figure out what they mean.

Aoi's not sure... Aoi didn't try to send any messages once Aoi died.

And before anyone starts going off again about how we should respect the dead, we are clearly working on reviving you, we just made no promises about doing it respectfully. Takes all the fun out of it.

[Nodding.]

If you were here alive with us, we would also be being rude.

[but because he can't help himself]

The killer robot can come try and do shite to me though, I'll say that.

Maybe even more rude because then we would have a reaction to work with.

[ what joy do they have in these meetings besides being a little mean ]

Yes, though if the robot sees this, please take all offense.

Hope that one is drafted for front line duty in the skeleton war.

I'm not interested in his skeleton whatsoever. It's made of metal.

Interesting point, actually. Does he have a skeleton at all? Probably not, correct, since skeleton implies that it must be made of bone.
