Week 2: Mingle
week 2:
mingle
After a weekend like that, maybe you're up for a little shopping? Good news is, that the Waterfront Shopping Mall has reopened this week. Go see a movie, adopt a pet, or maybe take some cute photos with friends! They can just hop on the S.U.P.E.R. to get to the new locations!
This week Aquamarine Fox, Cobalt Ox, Emerald Goat, and Gold Mouse can be found patrolling the city or watching construction.
If you wander the streets, you're sure to run into a prinny or two trying to sell you the Monday newspaper. Looks like there is something spicy this week! Luckily, you always seem to have the right amount of cash for such things.
Should heroes go stargazing at night, they will find that the moon appears to be in the waning crescent phase. Yes, all week. Villains tend to wander more at night, however, so the local authorities would suggest staying in after dark, unless you plan to try your hand at fighting crime. They welcome the help.
It appears that they have earned some new tokens to use on the AMAZOOM app. What cards will they get this week?
Looks like your luck is improving and you're starting to get to know each other better. Don't you feel closer to everyone already? This week, they will find themselves compelled to be physically affectionate in whatever way is appropriate. Hold hands!
Early Monday morning, all heroes receive a message from the RANKINGS app on their phone:
════════ ⋆★⋆ ════════

anyway can you imagine being a peasant and just getting completely blasted by the absolute worst flavor ever. also, it is MESSY, but he is somehow very carefully keeping from getting any sauce on himself. ]
It is an interesting flavor. [ interesting. bad. he is not taking another bite of this if he can help it, and tama sneaking wings onto his plate is not helping this at all. ] Perhaps we ought to focus on the chef du jour, for a photo opportunity?
[ as he very delicately turns his full attention to the shop owner and nudges another wing onto tama's plate. warfare. ]
no subject
Yet, here he is. In chicken hell.
He wants to leave. ]
Mhm, yeah, only focusing on celebrities is a bit of an outdated ad campaign, why not try something new?
[ The shop owner seems to be considering this, vanity rising within him, but the cameraman gives them a frown. ]
no subject
Right! Citrus has a point. We're just eating the wings, the chef's the one who worked hard on the recipe. You should give them some of the spotlight.
[ she cares not for the cameraman's affronted looks. ]
no subject
[ just a bunch of white haired smooth talkers here. temenos is smiling the smile of an angel at the cameraman in particular. holy light. holy kindness. ]
Far be it from me to be anything less than humble. But, I suppose, if you insist... perhaps I'll say a prayer, and you could get a shot of that, if you'd like? Surely, the chef could join us, and it may yet grace the papers. My fellow heroes? What do you think.
[ please let this be a decent distraction. please let this be a good enough picture that they don't have to eat any more wings. ]
no subject
But these are desperate times and they call for desperate measures. ]
Absolutely. Giving the food your literal blessing as an emissary of another world's God, now that is something no other restaurant has to offer!
[ He has not touched his chicken pile in minutes. ]
no subject
[ tama is genuinely just trying to get away with smiling and looking like she came second in the hottest heroes poll.
this involves some fluttered eyelashes and cutely resting her chin on her hands, looking like butter wouldn't melt in her mouth. d'awww. ]
It's important to be inclusive.
[ if the cameraman is wondering if there are drugs in this new sauce, that's not their concern. the chef looks like he's really into the idea of the spotlight now. wow. ]
no subject
anyway. temenos smiles politely, deeply pleased with this outcome, and bows his head, clasping his hands together in prayer. this is complete and utter bullshit. grade A bullshit. and yet. ]
If we might all come together and bow our heads. Close your eyes and let the darkness take you. [ ahem ahem. he clears his throat. ]
...By the light of the Sacred Flame, let this emissary of the darkness and holy light provide a blessing, to the Icarus's Wing and all the provisions that it creates in the future. May Aelfric keep the darkness at bay; may Bifelgan keep your wallet heavy and your deals fruitful, and help you rise above the competition. May your passion for charity towards the community be as faithful as Dohter's...
[ as he does this, he reaches as subtly as possible for the edge of a wing on his plate and knocks it off of the table onto the ground. ]
...May my presence as the night soothe your financial worries and woes...
[ this is not how this prayer goes ]
no subject
That doesn't stop him from closing his eyes and putting his hands together. Any minute spent praying is a minute not spent eating the worst chicken wings he's ever had the misfortune of tasting.
It's almost sad when Temenos' little speech comes to an end. ]
Amen.
[ Opening his eyes reveals that the wings have not magically disappeared, which is how you know God has forsaken us all. Worse, the cameraman looks pretty frustrated by now.
"Okay, can we get the eating shot I'm being paid to film now, or? I wanna go home on time." ]
no subject
— Didn’t you blow fifteen minutes because you didn’t take the shutter off your lens…?
[ the cameraman is going on Her List. ]
no subject
[ temenos somehow manages to make this sound both genuine and completely, darkly sarcastic. it is mostly the latter. can we go home. oceanside city home or like, home home. god.
the wings are still there when he opens his eyes, also, and similarly, he is not surprised to see these gods-awful wings are still, in fact, in place. he very, very daintily picks one up between his fingertips, glancing between ponta and tama. ]
It does seem as if capturing one's likeness is something that requires a certain sense of visibility. Pray tell, were one acting as the night, would it not be nigh impossible to capture a photo? I can't hardly imagine the sorts of pictures only darkness would create.
[ is this about the lens cap. is he just talking to buy time. who knows. he knocks another wing very surreptitiously off of his plate and onto the ground. goodbye. ]
no subject
... also he has no idea what Temenos just said. Like, at all.
Anyway. ]
Look, I'm gonna do an eating shot if you can guarantee you're actually filming. I mean, what if we get full before you get the perfect take? Our expressions wouldn't be genuine anymore.
no subject
We’re fine for it. But the more we don’t get the shot, and the more we eat, the harder it’ll be to get that perfect snap…
[ pleading eyes. ]
So, do your best and we’ll do our best too. [ ǫ̴͒̔̈́̍͑̀͒̅̎̎̋̽́̍͂̍̂͘̚͘͝͝͠͝ŗ̷̨̨̜͓̪̤̰͉̬̖̙̓̇̐̇̔̔̏̂̏̔͑̿͛̇́̾̒̓́͒͆̃̎̈́̇́̈́͜͜͝͝͝͝͝ ̸̢̧̛̛̖̻͈̺͇̺̝̝̹̬̣͖̳͖͖̳͙͚̦̗͍͔̣̝͎͉̃̍̃̋͛̐͛̔͛̄̃̋̉̓̂̂̓̇̒̑͗̈́̕̕͜͠ͅë̴̢̡̧͇̤̯̜͕͓̹̲͇̘̲͍̭̗̫̭̩̻́̏̾̈̾͑͜͝ͅl̷̢͖̗͈̠̱̥̩̺̩̯̘͓̹̞͍̥͎̣̙͑͆̏͒͊̾́́̄̿̇̑̀͐́͗̓́͗̐̄͘̕͘͠s̷̘̩̳̻͇͖̏́͛͋̊̽̓̈ē̷̻͉̖̈̆̕ ]
no subject
Yes. No matter how difficult it may be, I will do my very best to right all wickedness. [ ??? ] But, I'd like to do so without making a terrible mess. A promise, and I believe we will be able to begin.
no subject
For the time being, he really does appear to be focusing. The camera is build up and pointing at the table, the remaining wings are placed as nicely as chicken wings can be...
Ponta suppresses a sigh as he reaches onto his plate, reading a chicken wing for dipping. The sauce is... he's not sure what it even looks like. Tar? Is this tar? Are they eating tar? Maybe!! ]
On three, everyone...?
no subject
this is really the worst thing she’s ever eaten, and while she hasn’t eaten much, that’s still significant. ]
Yup, and then we can let the chef prepare for the evening rush.
One… two…
no subject
...Three.
[ temenos will take the daintiest baby bite known to all of mankind. it takes every ounce of strength and composure that he has to not immediately make a face. this is ....
Bad ]
no subject
But hey, okay, let's chew and then leave here and--
"HEY, watch it you little scamp!!
The discarded chicken wings were not yet coated in sauce, and that appears to have been a mistake. Bad plain wings may not be good for humans, but they're good enough for the remaining cats that have not yet found their way back into the pet store. There's two fat tabbies here, and in their quest to eat the floor wings, one has gotten entangled in the camera cord.
The camera stand stumbles and--- oh no, the cameraman is more busy trying to shoo the cat away, it's really gonna fall--!! ]
no subject
tama had managed to mime the smallest, yet most enthusiastic bite. even if the joy didn't quite reach her eyes. she was almost DONE--
and then one fat tabby happens. ]
Ah--
[ TIMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMBBEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR ]
no subject
unfortunately you will not be getting any help from the third member of this group now because there's a rabbit sitting in his spot. ]
no subject
[ Look, nevermind the cat chaos, the camera-man can handle that, there's a bunny?? In this chair??? ]
Huh??
[ The camera has presumably fallen from its set-up completely by now and we can only hope it isn't broken. The cameraman is cussing in the bg.
Meanwhile Ponta is just gonna... pick up the bunny to stare at it. ]
... Mr. Temenos?
no subject
I'm...
[ pff
pfffHAHAHAHAHAHAH.
sorry ponta, she's going to be of no use for a moment. she needs to lose it at this. ]
no subject
no subject
... he's really fluffy. And the cloak is so cute? It's really cute. ]
Uh. Chicken wings are probably not healthy for a rabbit.
[ CONGRATS TEMEBUN?? ]
no subject
I dunno -- it's a man who's stuck as a bunny, does diet matter? Can he still eat chicken?
[ questions for the ages. ]
If the camera's working, this would be a hell of a picture.
no subject
he does wriggle around in ponta's hands though, trying to turn said unimpressed look on the photographer, who is staring and muttering, "I thought the one that shapeshifts is pink...?"
this man may have lost his mind or his career we aren't sure yet. ]
