WEEK 1 MINGLE

[foundationmods]

As dawn approaches on Monday, the contestants are greeted to a beautiful, sunny day. It's the first full week of their time in the house, and after the rather troubling introduction on Saturday it's hard to know just what to expect

For the first week, the surrounding area seems quiet and peaceful. The weather stays a nice 75 degrees during the day, and it dips down to the 50s at night. Comfortable, and without any real disturbances from nature or house. It's almost as if the whole weekend was just a bad dream, and maybe the actual game won't be as bad as Dazai made it out to me.

However, those rules and profiles are still hanging in the living room, a constant reminder of the warnings that have been given. What will happen now? There haven't been any deaths at this containment site in years, but will that change with these new rules? Only time will tell.

Perhaps it's a good idea to enjoy this first week. Go swimming, watch a movie, or just hang out together and get to know each other better. You never know, this might be the last time to see some of the contestants.

Yes, something like that.

[ Nailed it, even with the silliness! ]

Well, there's a first time for everything, right?

[visionem]

Is that so...I think I understand human metaphors a bit better now.

[ If he starts quoting other advertisements like he just did with Coke it's Aqua's fault. ]

Yes. Even after all this time, humans continue to amaze me. Truly you are capable of infinite growth and potential.

[mastersdefender]

I'm glad.

[ Wouldn't be the first time. Okay no jk. ]

...You know, I believe you're probably in the minority in thinking that honestly. I don't find any issue with it, but I've always figured it was a unique perspective, considering everything.

[visionem]

...am I? [ That catches him off guard, and he brings his hand to his mouth, a shy gesture. ]

By everything you mean—?

[mastersdefender]

Yes, I believe so.

[ Based upon the many worlds she's been to due to the missions and viewpoints of others' she's heard and known. She's watching the gesture curiously, smiling slightly. ]

I've heard a lot of the faults of humanity and all of that, but I can't ever think of very many instances where anyone would praise humans. It's just been the way it is, I suppose.

[visionem]

[ He honestly looks sad here, head falling to the side. ]

And what do you think of humanity, Aqua?

[mastersdefender]

[ Oh no... ]

I'm...not honestly sure. I haven't really given it much thought, as strange as that might be.

But, I don't think we're the worst, or that we're as bad as others think that we are. We have a lot of room to grow, but that goes for just about everyone, I think.

[visionem]

When I came here I wondered many things, but one was more important than the rest. In this world, in this universe: would there be humans who could shine and lead the way to a new world?

[ ... ]

Believing what you do, with how others may think, will you continue to move forward?

[mastersdefender]

I will.

Regardless of what others may think or the challenges we will or will not face, I can't give up. Not here, not now.

[visionem]

[ He's silent for a while but then he smiles, softer than anything she's seen so far. ]

You choose life and survival. I wonder what light your conviction will cast, what shadows it will unearth. I'll be watching, Aqua.
