MINGLE | WEEK ONE


MINGLE LOG | WEEK 1
Premise | Rooming | Full Nav


Greetings, house guests. You must be a little more familiar with how things work around here now. There is no escape.

One thing does seem to have changed: characters can now freely investigate the now unlocked Crypt.

On Sunday, nothing much at all happens. Better take the time to rest, recuperate, and decide your next steps. Maybe you have people you want to talk to after that … shit show? Now’s the time: unload those feelings.

Alternatively, with the pantry open with plenty of food available, why not wander into the kitchen for a snack and a chat with whoever is there?

(Don't forget to check out the post-trial afterparty!)

Come Monday, everyone will make up to a most unpleasant surprise: their motive for the week.

Unfortunately for those characters with questions about the motive, Pratibha is nowhere to be found afterwards. Additionally, all the profile entries for Leona, Phoenix, and Yoojin have changed. It’s a fairly clear indicator that they are dead. Enjoy this useful information!

On Tuesday, there are two noticeable changes. The first is that there is a new puzzle. The second thing? Pratibha’s presence. She's finally back. Why was she missing on Sunday and Monday? Why does she seem so … out of it? She’s all curled up in the laundry room this time, intermittently snoozing in the little nook off to one side.

On Wednesday, Pratibha is gone again. And so, unfortunately, is one of your own. What happened? Who is it? All subsequent headers, including Wednesday's, will be frozen until a Wednesday event can take place. We will announce to the playerbase once Wednesday's thread is live for you to investigate!

Thursday brings a very specific change: after 9 PM, no one get into, or out of, your rooms. Plan wisely. You may get stuck in the halls, which might be fine … except we know what happened last Thursday night.

Thursday also brings with it another new puzzle.

Friday is investigation time The investigation post will go live at 3 PM EST, 5/9.

Saturday is the day of your “first” real ritual. You may find the ritual post here at 12 PM EST, 5/10.

Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday

[Ranma was waiting for a repeat of Yoojin's trial. It was almost normal for girls he knew to physically vent out their frustrations out on him. This was different. Feeling the girl's quaking against him, seeing how torn up she looks by the implication this Dewey (relative? boyfriend?) up and ditching her...]

His new world?

[He asks quizzingly, sitting down on the ground and patting the spot beside him for the pink-haired girl. Talking about this might help her relax, or so Ranma hoped. Doing things 'diplomatically' and 'civil' never really pan out or work as a means for him.]

[ Anemone drops to the ground next to him, hugging her knees and looking glum (but at least not hysterical anymore). She wants to believe her own words badly, but she wonders if Dewey - or anyone - is even looking for her. ]

That's what he told me. He has big plans and I'm part of it.

[ He's always treated her special, for better or worse. ]
catsgothistongue: (Huh?)

Some big plan it must be to involve someone plain like you.

[Snarky commentary aside, there's a part of him that... might get it.]

Sounds almost like my old man. His plans aren't as ambitious to whatever that Dewey guy's planning, [Not ambitious enough to change the whole wide world.] but he wants me to 'carry on his legacy'... amongst other crap.

[Like cleaning up his messes and letting his father piggyback off his coattails. That lazy, greedy panda...]

Not funny.

[ Anemone mumbles. She is uber depressed. Go easy on her fragile heart. ]

What would your dad do if you didn't return soon?
catsgothistongue: (Hmphs in bitch!)

Grow a sense of humor.

[Go easy? Clearly you don't know Ranma well!

Shrugs. He's never had to think about the possibility of what the people he knows would do if he up and disappeared for good.]


Hell if I know. Prolly gorge himself on bamboo 'till we bust out, then chew my ear off for [Clearing his throat, Ranma circles his finger and thumb around his eyes to look like a pair of specs, before doing an impression of a disgruntled older man.] 'shirking my responsibilities and tryin' to run out on Akane' or some other crap he'd think of to gripe over.

I see where you get your weirdness from.

[ The old man impression almost makes her lips quiver in a smile. Almost. ]

You're lucky though. There's only one of you, so he won't give you up.

[ Not the case for her. ]
