WEEK 1 - MINGLE

[foundationmods]

WEEK 1

You've found a safe haven from the wind and the snow - yet, perhaps you're not quite out of danger yet. The Resort Staff are odd, but seem harmless - jumping to any whim you might have, if it doesn't make them oddly lock up.

The weather all week is perfect - the perfect temp and snow for plenty of skiing. The firepit in the courtyard is always lit too, with ingredients for smores and hot chocolate always available in the lobby. Though...in the halls, a strange bunch of songs keep playing from the hotel's sound system. Is whoever runs this place a weird cover song enthusiast?

So far, everything seems fine....but there's a weird sense of unease lingering over the Resort as everyone wakes up Monday Morning. Maybe that has something to do with that strange memory that popped in your head when you woke up? Or maybe it's that all of you woke up in the middle of a snowstorm, with no memory of how you got there?

In the end...even though everything should be fine, why does it feel like this is only the prelude to a nightmare...?

A.

[ After the announcement, Cinque can be found still in her Moogle pajamas holding a cup of hot chocolate. She's bouncing with the music playing. ]

I'm not really good at playing hide and seek. Sicey would say it's because I'm dimwitted.

[ Her siblings love her honestly. ]

B.

[ Later on, after she's dressed, she's checking for places to hide. Maybe you'll catch sight of her long braid or the bright red of her skirt before she jumps out. ]

Boo!

[ She's practicing for the game the staff wants them to play. ]

A

[dolleyed]

... yeah, no idea how they got that idea.

[ Just... staring at whatever the hell that outfit is?? ]

[whirlingmace]

Riiiight. I'm not dim at all. I would say I'm pretty bright.

[ Does she mean the color or not. Also it's okay if he wants to check it out. ]

[dolleyed]

Practically blinding, yep.

What are you even supposed to be? [ The concept of a kigurumi is fairly alien to Kohaku, so it's a costume in his mind. ]

[whirlingmace]

I'm supposed to be human, silly.

[ She's bouncing back and forth. ]

[dolleyed]

I'm talking about that outfit, missy.

[whirlingmace]

These are my pajamas! It's a moogle.

[ She'll pull the hoodie up over her head. Ta-dah! And then turn around so he can see all of it ]

[dolleyed]

This guides me to my second question... What on earth is a moogle?

[ He's not sure why this is important to know, but he got this far, so now he can't turn back without the full explanation. ]

[whirlingmace]

[ She'll do him one better.

There's a spark of red for a second before boom! A moogle stuffed animal appears in her hands. ]

They look like this! But they are actually alive and can talk, Kupo.

b

[maskarang]

[ he takes a single step back when she jumps out. he doesn't really look that surprised but, you know, he's wearing a mask?? half his face is obscured here. ]

"Boo"?

Re: b

[whirlingmace]

[ Oh. It's this dude. And that mask is cheating. ]

Hey hey, Ri Ri.

[ Did he want a new name for his nick name? ]

I'm practicing hiding.

[maskarang]

[ what is—know what, there's only one possible answer here ]

No.

[whirlingmace]

Huh? No what?

[maskarang]

Everything!

[whirlingmace]

I don't know if I can fix everything, but maybe we can start by taking off your mask.

[ He's saying no to himself right ]

[maskarang]

How did you—? ... No. Indulging you and your games will only prove me the bigger fool. I'm leaving.

[ What do you think? ]

[whirlingmace]

[ Let's follow after. ]

I don't think you need a lot of help there, Riri. You're already pretty big.

[maskarang]

[ Not stopping. ]

Again, you link two completely unrelated topics. How you managed this and your reasoning, if you have any at all, is beyond my understanding.

[whirlingmace]

You're the one who said no to everything.

[maskarang]

And somehow that wasn't enough to deter you from any of this.

[whirlingmace]

I can be pretty determined! [ Or something? ]

Why do you wear the mask anyways? Did something happen?

[maskarang]

[ He's moved onto the next stage: the silent treatment. ] ...

[whirlingmace]

[ She's taking his silence as she hit a nerve. ]

Did I guess right? I'm sorry. [ A beat ] You know, scars can look really cool.

[maskarang]

You did not. I'm afraid the reason for the mask is much less interesting than whatever nonsense you can dream up.

[whirlingmace]

Oh so it's just a fashion statement.
