WEEK 5 MINGLE

[foundationmods]

WEEK 5

They said it was a break week, but two of your number were lost anyway last week. While you're all tired and still recovering, the speakers crackle to life with the voice of The Lady.

"Attention, Guests. The game is back on. Break week is now over. Happy Holidays."

The Staff are still like they were last week - only this time, the orders almost always go wrong, if they even manage to go through - the Staff are vanishing constantly. Meals are also getting affected - they're still perfectly edible, but they're not as delicious as they once were, with seasoning and other things occasionally being off. The Sign warning people to not take knives is still on the kitchen door, but The Chef seems incredibly tired, often resting on a chair in the corner.

The Resort is still furnished with Holiday items - but after Medic's christmas protest, there are more items related to other holidays up, and it's much more balanced - objects and colors of multiple holidays side by side in harmony, with the mistletoe still up for any needed smooching. There are, however, more wriggling...things, and there's even an entire 'tree' made of eldritch tentacles with glowing balls of light on them that wink in an oddly hypnotic fashion.

The weather is still nothing, but the courtyard seems to have switched to a much warmer clime, which while still a little cool is pleasant enough to sit outside in. Finally, the music this week seems... almost ominous...?

On Monday morning, another memory is returned to everyone, one more traumatic this time instead of gentle like the others have been. Yet, you feel as if you know a little more about your time in this world, now. Not everything, but...enough.

Enough to see this game through to the end, at least.

Something about an argument with his boss? ...oh yeah! Tell Ichigo 'dog said he has a plan'!

Dude, you can't just go saying that!

It's fine, there's no O5s here!

[whirlingmace]

Yeah, his boss is super mean, but I think he'll come around. I hope he'll come around.

[ She will pull her tablet out and tap a message quickly to the dead.

Appy! Kon and Sol says hi. And that Dog has a plan.

They can probably hear the tapping ]

Sending the message! He's okay. He has a lot of friends here and I think he's dating a few people!

[foundationnpcs]

Woah hold on just a minute: he's DATING? And he's dating A FEW PEOPLE???

That's not really that weird-

It's ICHIGO! Mr. Frigid! And why does he get to go on dates before I do?!

[whirlingmace]

He is! He told Inaba he loves her. She's super duper nice and a beauty! Also he's with Atsushi and Shirou I think? And likes being shirtless.

[ Yup. Totally tattling. ]

Appy is really great. So I could see why he has a lot of boyfriends and a girlfriend.

[resortghosts]

ichigo kissed inaba and shirou here!!

also we should ask them if they know anything about the resort or if they can get us help because they're making us play mafia except for real

there's three spirits but we killed one and the other two seem nice (c:) can we bring them with us?

[foundationnpcs]

Shirou? You mean, Shirou Emiya? A redhead who likes swords?

I FUCKING KNEW IT!

[whirlingmace]

Yup, that's the one. He's a ghost too. He kissed him and Inaba while they are all ghosts. Oh the ghosts here are like normal people but we can't see them and they are cold.

[ Also she kind of killed Shirou... whoops. But she's reading the message on the tablets. ]

I think it's Yoyo... he's asking if you guys know anything about the Resort or if you can get help because they are making us all play mafia here. You know, with actual murder. Oh they also want you to know if we- they can bring Jojo and Doppel with them when they escape.

[foundationnpcs]

I guess you can? Why wouldn't you be able to?

[Kon, meanwhile, is screaming in the background. This knowledge is dark.]

[whirlingmace]

I think they are pretty worried about the Foundation being really mean. They have been making some really dumb mistakes. Oh! I should introduce myself. Hi hi. I'm Cinque and I'm also Doppelling. Nice to meet ya!

[foundationnpcs]

Cinque?

[There is a pause for a moment, but then:]

Oh! Nine's sister! Hi! Nine was in camp with me, but I didn't eat him.

[whirlingmace]

Shirou said he was there! I really want to see him. I heard he got a boyfriend.

[ Cinque has the worst priorities ]

Thank you for not eating him. I don't think he would taste very good if you did. [ She's just joking ]

[foundationnpcs]

Probably not. I don't eat people anymore, only animals. People taste like sadness and regrets.

Dude, remember what I said about the weird stuff?

Sorry!

[whirlingmace]

Aww. So did it make you really sad?

[ Oh it looks like Kon is back. ]

[foundationnpcs]

It did, yeah. That's why I don't do it anymore.

Um...I looked through your memories, sorry! But after Owain freaked out, I wanted to see if there were any other friends to people inside of me. So, um...

What he's getting at is, be selective with who touches the stone. Because someone might hear a voice they're not expecting and get sad.

Or mad. I think Ren- no, Akira- I think he might get mad.

[whirlingmace]

That's okay! If it means helping everyone... Sataling needs a better time here. It's been super duper rough for him.

[ He could see from memories ]

I'll keep you guys safe and warn people before touching.

[foundationnpcs]

Yeah, he doesn't need someone screaming at him.

That asshole is already screaming now.

He, um. He wants to talk to Akira? I don't know if it's a good idea though.

[whirlingmace]

He can talk to me, and if he's not mean I'll pass it along to Akira.

[foundationnpcs]

[There is a pause, and then:]

He refuses.

[whirlingmace]

Then boo to him. I'll keep talking to Kon and Sol.

[foundationnpcs]

Fine by me, I'd rather talk to a cute girl too.

Kon!

[whirlingmace]

Hehe. Can you see what I look like in there?

[ Let's talk about that. ]

Oh. You did see my memories. You could see Atsushi and Inaba in there!

There any other messages or anything else? Any way I can convince Appy's boss to leave?

[purrtagonist]

[overhearing this!!]

. . . Cinque? Pass what onto me?

[whirlingmace]

[ awww ]

They said he's really mean. Are you sure?

[purrtagonist]

[. . . a soft snort]

I can handle mean.

[whirlingmace]

Okay... [ Handing the stone over. ]

They made Owain cry earlier... So if you need a break, just hand it back, okay?

[ She'll put a hand on him just to be sure. ]
