WEEK 1 MINGLE - KALMIA

[foundationmods]

All of the guests awoke in their rooms, just like they had before.

Yesterday had been a day of surprises.
First, they'd finally met the person who had brought them here - the Witch of Dimensions, Yuuko.
Secondly, they'd learned they were going to be playing a horrible game.
And most important, they learned that wishes could be granted if they won this game.🗈

Still, for now, it seemed like there wasn't much to do. Was the Witch already in talks with the 'Murderer'? Was the 'victim' already decided upon?

There was no way to know until some day later this week, apparently.

Still, it wasn't all bad. The island was beautiful and the climate just perfect for beachgoing, or taking a cosy walk in the garden. There were also board and card games which would be produced upon request - and the tv in the Sitting Room - to help ease the boredom of it all.

Though, perhaps the guests would prefer to get to know each other instead? On maybe get into some trouble as they roamed the island.

Despite being told someone will die, it...felt remarkably peaceful. Could one of their own really be able to kill someone?

...Or, maybe...this is just the silence that comes just before a massive storm breaks, and sweeps away everything...

[He just. Sees those reactions and rests his forehead in his hand.]

It's not like that you dumbasses!

[anonnomnomnom]

[He's just been watching all the flailing and denial with his head whipping back and forth like at a tennis match.]

Mmm... Brother? Father? Second cousin five times removed? Pet? Furniture?

[literalidiotball]

Uh... I dunno if they're related, so the first three are right out.

[anonnomnomnom]

Why wouldn't they be related? Family members are usually the closest, right? If they're not dating and stuff.

[literalidiotball]

Yeah, but they don't exactly look related, do they?

[anonnomnomnom]

That doesn't mean anything!

[literalidiotball]

What do you mean? Of course it does! Genetics! That's always a factor in telling if someone's related!

[excavated]

[ TO BE HONEST THIS IS KIND OF HILARIOUS CONSIDERING HIS ACTUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH WATANUKI ]

[anonnomnomnom]

But how do you know that people will always look the same? One of them could have dyed their hair, or changed bodies, or turned into a bear and back again! That's pretty normal.

[is it.........]

And you can also just call someone your brother. Like blood brothers.

[literalidiotball]

Blood brothers...?

[??? HUMANS ARE WEIRD.]

[anonnomnomnom]

If’s where you cut yourself up and exchange blood to symbolize your eternal bond!

[It’s not just humans, to be fair.]

[literalidiotball]

EEEERRRRGGGH! [Wheatley recoils at the notion.] That is absolutely disgusting!

And also unsanitary, to be fair. But why would you do that to yourself?

[anonnomnomnom]

A lot of things are unsanitary when you're not made of metal!

[He'll reach out despite the recoil and pat Wheatley above his eye-thingy. At least there's no blood involved. :)]

And I think it's 'cause spilling blood when you're not dying is either super symbolic, or you're having a real good fight. Either way, you can get brothers out of it.

[excavated]

Can we stop referring to him as Furniture at least?

[literalidiotball]

[Nod, nod...]

So he's a pet. Got it.

[excavated]

He's not a pet either?!

[anonnomnomnom]

What is the difference between a pet and Furniture...

[That's not the point.......]

[literalidiotball]

Well, for one, furniture shouldn't be alive. Or sentient. Like...

Okay, see this table we're sitting at? That is furniture. Doesn't move, or do much other than giving you a place to put things... Pets are more alive.

[anonnomnomnom]

Not furniture, Furniture! Like a Witch's familiar, or a servant, or something.

[He learned too much about XXXholic, Umineko and Fate/ at the same time so now Watanuki's a product of Fate/XXXneko. Well done.]

Besides, the goats here are servants, and they're alive, so that means a pet can be Furniture.

[That was probably not a legitimate use of the transitive property.]

[foundfate]

I am not a pet, a servant, or Furniture! I'm just me!

...and of that list from before, 'brother' is probably the closest to the truth.

[anonnomnomnom]

What are you, anyway?

[He looks human but he has such weird masters. Anon looks vaguely intrigued at this. What is a Watanuki??]

But ah, see, I knew that was a family thing.

[Sticks his tongue out super maturely at the soccer ball robot.]

[foundfate]

I'm me! Watanuki! Why is that so hard to understand?

[literalidiotball]

[Wheatley glares at Anon for a second before turning his attention to Watanuki.]

Then why are you connected to him and her?!

We're going around in circles, mate! Make up your mind!

not here

[oceanicbutterfly]

[but Fate/ definitely seems like it would have an XXX neko in it somewhere.]
