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.

[she just lets their jointed hands swing idly like this is normal.]

Yeah...it's pretty bad for those of us who aren't super connected to death. We can manage it, but it still wipes us out for a while after we come back to this side. It's why I only went to visit when it was really necessary or I really wanted to.

[touchups]

[Sometimes you just hold hands with curses! Worse things have happened, probably.]

Sucks... [Your LIFE BATTERY, YALL.] ...I'd say I hope we don't have to go back there, but it all blew up! So I guess we'd just live in the void or get vored right away, haha.

[HAHA.]

[rainbowings]

Stop, stop, you just got back. Don't be pessimistic and no more vore right now.

[touchups]

[WAVING THEIR LINKED HANDS AROUND.]

I wasn't! Or I wasn't trying to be, anyway. [IT'S FINE.] No more vore would be super nice, though.

[rainbowings]

You're on this side again, so maybe we put a pause on it? At least long enough to banish vore permanently.

[touchups]

Yeah! No more vore! [Even if sometimes it's funny!!] Guess we still got a whole lot of work ahead of us then, huh?

[rainbowings]

Yup! Think you're up for it?

[touchups]

I'm always up for a good time!

[IS THAT WHAT THIS IS.]

[rainbowings]

Why did I even ask? [NONE SURPRISE.]

[touchups]

[JUST SMILIN. This is the curse you have decided to befriend, comrade. HE'S JUST LAUGHING.]

Even if we can't do anything super drastic- [IE KILL IT] -there's probably gonna be fun stuff to do, right?

[rainbowings]

Depends. Is it your idea of fun you're wondering about, or everyone else's idea?

[touchups]

Eh? Why would I wonder about what anyone else thinks is fun...

[WHY DOES SHE LIKE THIS FLEA AGAIN.]

[rainbowings]

[she reaches up to gently bap him in the face.]

You still have to work with them. So don't get ahead of yourself.

[touchups]

[MAKING A SPUTTERING SOUND and waving at her hand with his free one!!]

I know, I know—! We can work together even if we have different ideas of what's fun!

[rainbowings]

You literally murdered people. [she says this very patiently.] Do you understand why I'm asking what you're thinking that means?

[touchups]

[This did not, in fact, seem to occur to him apparently, judging by the brief look of surprise. God. He is a fucking flea.]

Oh. [Oh yeah! Haha.] I mean, I'm not gonna kill anyone else here! And I know we're not supposed to, y'know... [Kill The Furby. Tragic.] But it'd be fun if there was at least a little fighting.

[HE JUST FOUGHT HIS WAY THROUGH FURBY HELL.]

[rainbowings]

[you know. no one can say she didn't try but at least mahito's going to mostly behave. it's better than nothing.]

It might be really pissed off when it notices stuff, so...I'm sure you'll get to fight something again at some point. Or just go beat up Childe.

[don't throw your not-brother under the bus what the fuck.]

[touchups]

[She is absolutely trying more than anyone should... Mahito is also trying more than he's used to for better or for worse, and for various reasons. G...good work, team.

Anyway, he looks pretty content with the idea of Fighting Something In General, but his expression absolutely brightens at the mention of CHILDE BRAWL.]

Oh, that's a good idea, too! I haven't fought him in a little while. [IT'S BEEN LIKE A DAY.] ...Maybe not now, though. Everyone's too busy being tired from getting all crazy and worked up!

[Ah, sweet murder reveals... The hilarity.]

[rainbowings]

[glad they worked together to generate half a braincell, idiots.]

Yeeeah....you guys had a lot of spoilers you were hanging onto before piling out of the portal. But there's always tomorrow?

[touchups]

[TEAMWORK MAKES THE DREAM WORK!!!!]

Yeah, it's pretty funny! Good thing everyone got some of their energy worked out on the way over, or there'd probably be a lot more punching.

[He may be a little disappointed?? Just a little though, and it doesn't show, it's fine.]

True, true. And now that we're all together with no stupid interference, we can probably come up with some pretty good plans!

[me staring ty deadass in the eyes through the computer screen]

[rainbowings]

I still don't trust you guys not to knock each other out when I'm not looking. [some of you are missing hands still??]

I hope you're right though! Or, at least, we can get all the bad plans out of the way and then figure it out.

[i have done nothing wrong stop.]

[touchups]

Haha, maybe! You're probably one of the people here keeping some of us in line!

[HE FINDS IT HILARIOUS. This group ended up with the weirdest fuckin holders of morality leashes and babysitters?? What is happening.]

Right! Nix the Furby Fuck Heists and move on to better things!

[WHY.

also beats you up]

[rainbowings]

You think so? [she doesn't seem to mind, except then she groans.]

Stop talking about the heist, I'm begging you. I already told Childe it was a bad plan!

[touchups]

Yup! Definitely.

[Sometimes everyone is just held together by a nutty idol who's decided to befriend a bunch of super shady individuals.

Also, terribly, he just laughs about it.]

Yeah, I know! We canceled it! And if any other plans like it pop up, you guys can veto those, too.

[rainbowings]

[iris just holding like 6 morality leashes and deciding all of the idiots attached are great. that sounds right.]

If you say so. [she hums at that though.] I really hope you don't have another plan like that, but some of your other plans haven't been too bad if you can figure out how to make them work.
