WEEK ZERO: INTRO MINGLE....2





POPULATION: 37



[At around 10 AM sunday morning, there is the sound of a very alarming, earth-shaking crash that comes from the hallway with the elevator.

Should you choose to investigate, you will come across four figures splattered across the ground in front of said elevator, covered in slime and bits of fur.

The first figure to pop up is a figure in a hooded cloak with a crossed swords symbol etched into the side of the hood. They use the rest of the figures on the floor to push themselves up and then immediately let out a blood-curdling shriek as they justโ€ฆ set the elevator on fire.

As the elevator closes over the flames, the smallest figure in a hooded cloak with a ring of hearts symbol rolls off to the side, looking at their slime-coated sleeves with a distressed nya sound. They reach up to wipe bits of slime off of the two bumps at the top of their head, flinging it on the floor before sitting up on their knees.

The third hooded figure rolls up, and then rolls? into the air? to float? The very tip of the white, spiraled horn on the top of their head jutting through the hood is chipped. :( A wilted plant symbol is embroidered on the side of the hood. They clap their hands somewhat excitedly.]


Wow, we, like, didnโ€™t die!

[The tallest figure finally pulls themselves up off the floor with a little groan, having been on the bottom of the pile. They reach up to rub their head, careful of the hood of their cloak, which has an eye symbol embroidered on the side. Their sleeve slips down a little, and a bright green eye opens up on their forearm, swiveling to look around before it closes and blinks out of existence.]

Jeez, did we not have enough property destruction already? Cannot believe you bitches live like this, by the way.

[The elevator is now closed, and the figure with the wrath symbol just sits down on the floor and starts shucking the slime off their sleeves like theyโ€™re squeegee-ing it. Their cloak is pulled up a little, which means everybody can see their bare feet, which are on fire. grumbled:]

Wish I were dead.

[The figure with the lust symbol whines slightly as they get to their feet, leaving little time between the moment they stand and the moment they move in the blink of an eye to jump onto the tallest figureโ€™s back, draping themselves over them as they look around. Please ignore the way the back of their cloak quivers just slightly.]

Aw, donโ€™t say that. How were we supposed to know the elevator would get stuck?

Oof- [The tall figure only stumbles slightly, just taking hold of their new barnacleโ€™s legs like this is not the first time itโ€™s happened. They are allowed to feel tall.]

Well, now itโ€™s stuck and on fire, which I personally donโ€™t think is a huge improvement? Can we, uh, move on? Definitely not it.

[In the background, the wrath hood lies on the floor and expires.]

Welcome to, uh--here! We were going to come down earlier to greet you, buuuut someone broke the elevator! Weโ€™re here now, though, soโ€ฆ hello!

โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…


Say hello to (a few of) your NPCs! Please pick one NPC to tag only at this time to help spare your mods from being overloaded! Tysm. ๐Ÿ˜˜

Mmm, yes, the guide. It left quite a lot up to the imagination. Was that also to help us get to know each other first?
niceguyferatu: (and i remember just how julianne)

[personal profile] niceguyferatu 2021-02-07 08:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm, well, I do suppose that ended up working out, despite all the technical difficulties. I know plenty of us, including myself, have questions.
niceguyferatu: (heyheyyouyou I DON'T LIKE YOUR HUSBAND)

Yes, you said we're supposed to indulge, but that seems far too simple. Surely we won't all be getting our wishes granted simply for indulging ourselves here.

So it is a competition. How many lucky winners will there be, at the end of all this?
niceguyferatu: (don't you know what i can do)

[personal profile] niceguyferatu 2021-02-07 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, but surely you must know the true answer. Why stay so vague? Wouldn't it be helpful for us to know the rules of the game we're playing?
niceguyferatu: (i recall the way that stephanie)

[personal profile] niceguyferatu 2021-02-07 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
How much...what? How much indulgence? Or...how much of our wishes will be granted at the end?
niceguyferatu: (let me buy you a drink!!)

[personal profile] niceguyferatu 2021-02-07 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, so it's not necessarily a competition so much as a type of fuel, or energy. However much we indulge, the stronger the means to accomplish our wishes.
niceguyferatu: (don't you know what i can do)

[ nodding, this makes perfect sense now! ]

And how exactly do you all figure into this? The way you talk makes it sound like this...indulgence-to-means conversion is an automatic thing. So what are you all doing, then?

[ and because all his icons are so sleazy, i do feel the need to clarify: he is asking this completely innocently, no hint of judgement in his tone whatsoever. ]
niceguyferatu: (i'm not typical--and simone)

[personal profile] niceguyferatu 2021-02-09 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
Really now! And is that something you engage in and tell us yourselves, or is it more of a self-guided "come to is if you need it" arrangement?
