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...

[ Here's here, linefacing and listening quietly to everyone else's piece in the meeting... ]

same, riku ]

Everyone's so vibrant, I don't really know what to add...

[rikuchi]

Sometimes there's not much to add, and it can be better to just listen.

[ Riku sure isn't, uh...'vibrant'. That'd go to the others, including his bestie, Sora. ]

But, I've been thinking about this whole thing, and...wondering if this is the first time this type of thing's happened before.

[ There's been something bothering him about all of this besides the obvious 'it's a terrible situation', and he's been wondering if he's just imagining it. But that just doesn't make sense either... ]

[beguiledcard]

[ +1 to listening quietly!

He's quietly eating. It's when there's nothing important being said, he's whispering to Riku: ]

... Wow. Did you try any of this? It's amazing.

[keydomhearts]

[ Peeking around from the other side of Riku. ]

Is it? Let me try!

[ He's not being quiet. Putting a hand around Riku's back as he leans over for food. ]

[beguiledcard]

[ He gives a small smile and nod. ]

Sure, go ahead.

[ Just holding the plate out! ]

[keydomhearts]

[ Snagging some. ]

Thanks, Akira! You're the best.

[beguiledcard]

[ Tiiiiny grin as he gives a fingergun. ]

I try my best.

[keydomhearts]

[ Smiling bright in response. ]

What do you think of all of this?

[ Asked in-between bites. ]

xxxholic spoilery stuff

[beguiledcard]

[ There's a thoughtful hum... ]

That talk of how this Yuuko isn't supposed to exist anymore...

[ He frowns. ]

For one, this place feels very similar to how the Metaverse feels - I can explain that if you need, but...

When Shadow said she might be a construct of memories, it had me considering that maybe... it's more than just memories alone?

[rikuchi]

[ While Sora grabs some over him... ]

...Try what?

[ He's listening so hard to everyone he hasn't even so much as glanced at the food. ]

[beguiledcard]

[ He's noticed.

He's just going to take a moment to prepare a thing... Then, after returning, he just sets a dish down in front of Riku. ]

This.

[rikuchi]

[ Sometimes you just get so distracted - don't see the forest for the trees. But the other putting the dish down in front of him catches his attention, and there is a bit of surprise there. ]

You didn't have to go ahead and put together something for me, you know.

[ He'll reach for the fork, because he is not about to turn down food someone's just grabbed for him anyway. ]

[beguiledcard]

[ There's just a small smile and a shake of his head. ]

I felt like it.

[ He's shrugging and sitting back down. ]

Maybe we can swap thoughts later, since it seems like you took some pretty decent mental notes so far.

[rikuchi]

[ Riku falls silent temporarily, looking down at the food, and then sticks the fork into some of it. Yet, he doesn't begin eating at the moment, choosing to speak again instead. ]

I wouldn't mind. Though, I can't say I'll be the best company.

[ He seems to sound like he would welcome the idea, however, judging by his quiet, but pleasant tone. ]

[keydomhearts]

[ Brb stealing the food from your fork. ]

[rikuchi]

[ Sora!!!! ]

[keydomhearts]

[beguiledcard]

[ He gives a small smile, shaking his head. ]

Then, guess we can be "not the best company" together?

[rikuchi]

[ He'll blink...and then kind of laugh a little. ]

Yeah, sure. Why not?
