Week 2: Mingle

week 2:
 
mingle
   30 DOODZ REMAIN   
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:
This week's hero rankings are as follows:

1st. Gold Mouse
2nd. Crimson Phoenix
3rd. Aquamarine Fox
4th. White Tiger
5th. Cobalt Ox
6th. Amethyst Snake
7th. Emerald Goat
8th. Yellow Rabbit

Congratulations, heroes, and keep up the good work!

Good morning, and welcome to your week one mingle!

This week's effect is touch week. Characters will find themselves feeling physically affectionate with other people. This will feel completely natural to them.

Please submit all PC submissions under the correct weekly header.

Amazoom has reopened orders.

Murder proposals are open! Please keep the deadlines in mind.

Have fun!

Ya answer to it, it gets added. Roman disco-egg-eye-hero-fridge.

[Well, now he's a Roman but who knows if that's like, a positive or a negative here??? Actually, we're just not sure what he is anymore. Poor Ryuki but also Hans rattling off the epithets that are literally longer than his name probably shows he's screwing around here.

That said, he sighs a little and snaps his fingers -- two of the hairballs go poof! -- Satan's head is now hairball-free (but luckily not hair-free) and the eggs are momentarily safe. Hairball #3, heretofore the only hairball, seems eager to rectify its furry bread mistake and rolls over to try and help bounce SSS guy forward into the fray.

Wait, no, it's actually just trying to photobomb.]

They're mine but they're also cat kinda things, so it ain't like I always tell 'em what to do. They do their own thing sometimes, but ya can't say they ain't good for business. [well, the chaos is slightly more contained but is baguette thief's baguette (questionable) really safe?? because Hans has started casually slicing these pants into shorts to get the bread out, prompting some real shrieking] 'Sides, I wouldn't have to be meownacing if this one'd settle down.

See? We're helping, Mr. Disco Egg.

[Shorter then Hans' nickname, but no less respectful...

Satan takes a few pictures of the solitary hairball, before pocketing his phone and forcing SSS into one of the chairs at the donation table. He does not pay any mind to the creation of jorts going on, because he deserves it.]


You can just sit right here and take notes on how we deal with this situation, and then you can decide on what to say about us from here on at.

[He gives SSS a headpat. It's not gentle at all. Then he pulls out his phone to take more pictures of Ryuki.]

Smiling would make you look more friendly, Mr. Disco Egg Pardi.

[ JUST CRUSHES AN EGG IN FRUSTRATION THIS IS AS OFF THE RAILS AS HE'S GOING TO GET EXCEPT EGGS CAN'T BE CRUSHED IF YOU SQUEEZE THEM VERTICALLY SO HE'S NOT EVEN GOING TO CRUSH THE EGG IT'S JUST STRESS RELIEF

and then he smiles (normal) at the nearest person. Mans Meowdy and Lucy can't hurt him if he tunes them out. This is completely unrelated to because Satan suggested it. He's going rogue, politely.
]

S-so, this is the egg drive...

[ Genuinely he's still lost on the plot on what exactly it is they're supposed to do. Fuck it. He's giving eggs to the homeless. ]

[So it turns out Ryuki was the real Humpty Dumpty all along (in his ryukokoro)--]

Meeow, see? Roman eggman's got a handle on what he's supposed to be doin', so what ya should do is follow his example an' be a proper heroic citizen.

[Does Hans have any right to be lecturing others on heroism????? He's going to do it anyway, nya. Ryuki's improvisation means they have even more room to maneuver, even though the line is completely messed up now but they may have also stolen the egg line. So it might, in fact, work out?????

Meantime, Remaining Hairball is bouncing happily under the glow of the camera, and then it just -- bounces all the way up on top of Satan's head again. Hans notices while he's still manhandling the now jorts'd fellow and gives it the hairy eyeball for a moment, but that does absolutely nothing because it's like 30% of a cat. Perhaps these hairballs are being extra friendly with Satan because they sense his affinity for anything furry and cat-adjacent.

Perhaps not. There's no way to know.]

... 'member to take some more pictures once we get the grill goin'. [and he is actually going to drag this hapless (and possibly breadless, though not baguetteless) dude off to wherever the grill is while everyone else is occupied, motioning to Satan to come with, either because of the hairball or because--] Or once you get the grill goin'.

[



He has no idea how to work a grill. ☆]

[Absolutely none of them have any right to be lecturing anyone.

He's also secretly pleased about the hairball choosing him, but he isn't going to say anything and get it to leave him.]


Alright. Take care of the eggs, Ryuki.

[Now he gets his real name??? But he's going to head off to the grill - this is a grocery store, so there's probably? A display of grills? With all the briquettes and everything they'll need to get a fire going.

He will pause, though.]


Should we really start a fire indoors? I'm worried about the hairball and all the smoke.

We're not setting a man on fire? Can we not do that?

[personal profile] myadsharp 2023-10-06 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
Told ya it's just a bit o' smokin'! We'll all be back in a jiff!

[Don't worry about it.

The hairball stays with Satan, rolling around every now and then and making pleasant meowy noises but otherwise content. Hans stands in front of a grill with jorts baguette borrower still collared, contemplating the mysteriousness of something that looks not unlike a regular fire roasting rack but has a metric shitton of buttons and other incomprehensible mechanisms both visible and invisible.

He cackles briefly at Satan's concern for the hairball, waving a hand airily.]

Can move outside if ya really want, but it ain't goin' to be much fire in the end. Just a bit of scare an' pomp. Anyway, these li'l guys don't even have anything to breathe in smoke an' I can just send 'em away if they don't like it.

[Why are they both more concerned with hairball logistics than setting a man mildly on fire (or smoking him, whichever comes first).]

Well, if the hairball will be okay. Here goes nothing!

[Time to get a fire going! He fiddles with the knobs, and in no time at all… there’s a fire going.

In the grocery store. Why hasn’t anyone tried to stop them? Probably because they seem insane. This is fine.]

[ They just don't have the power. It's called being an NPC. It's also why Ryuki can't do shit either, he just has inherent NPC power.

Anyway this forces him to get physical and start just. Trying to physically remove the bread man, who is panicking something incomprehensible about his baguette sliding down into his pants leg, which is the last thing on the planet possible that Ryuki can care about right now.

GO TO JAIL. STRAIGHT TO JAIL. IT'S BETTER THAN BEING THROWN ON A PROPANE GRILL.

Mya-meow! That's more fire'n I thought!

[They're perfectly sane, it's just that Hans doesn't know grocery store etiquette, the hairball is bouncing and presumably cheering on Satan's pyromaniacal whimsy, and Satan is being Satan. The dream team of utter chaos is complete.

Ryuki really is doing his best as the honorable representative of all NPCs or something -- Hans is... surprisingly hard to budge for somebody who looks relatively skinny under all his tattered outfit, but true to his word he only digs his heels and grilling gumption in to singe the hapless culprit a little bit. A tad. A thread or two. Those were terrible former pants, anyway.

Ryuki is then permitted to do whatever he'd like to do with the thief. Their promo is done! Also the furry crotch baguette has fallen onto the grill and is in the fire now.]

An' that, folks, is what ya get if yer not a heroic citizen or listen to one. See, even the egg fridgeman's goin' fer keeping the peace no matter what! [I rolled for him remembering to flip the baguette out of the fire before it becomes charcoal and while he then drops it on the ground it's some kind of grill flip] If anyone wants their eggs done, though, we got 'em right here.

[He watches the baguette hit the floor, then kicks it with his foot. It slides across the floor towards the donation table, still smoldering a bit.]

I still would have preferred just eating his soul.

[Is he being serious or not… Who can say…]

I think we’ve done a good job, all things considered.
