WEEK SIX: MINGLE

[saturations]

MINGLE

A bittersweet victory, isn't it? You solved everything this past weekend. No mysteries were left unsolved, and now things seem to have settled down. Of course, there's surely plenty on your mind by now. As always though, time marches on. You must keep moving ever onward.

At the far end of the park in the central node, you'll hear the faint sound of rumbling as something new appears. The Prism is opening itself to you all, showing you what it's capable of, and providing you with space to explore.

For those of you feeling particularly daring, you are free to explore a bit further on your own. But even before you leave the apartments, perhaps you'd like to pay a visit to the gumball machine in the lobby.

Strange. Some of you may have gained or lost a color since this time last week, but it's not like many of you will ever tell. In fact, many of you are very, very bad at sharing. Many of you continually suppress your own emotions whether for the sake of others, or in order to go unnoticed. It's hard to say what your motivations are sometimes. This week, however, the suppression... isn't exactly for the best. You may feel a strange twinge in your chest, a slightly uncomfortable tickle in your throat, and then before you can stop it, you find yourself coughing up a handful of flowers. All different shades, all representing your hidden feelings, this disease takes its hold and infects everyone in the Prism. Too bad the timing isn't always the most convenient either.

Finally, as always, you may contact the residents at any time. They may even have something new for you to do.

Welcome to your week six mingle for chroma!

Things of note:
► This week's effect is hanahaki! Yup. For all suppressed emotions characters may be feeling, after some time they'll find themselves coughing up flowers in different colors representing those feelings.
► The flowers can be any type you want for the aesthetic. It can be one or two flowers, or it can be a lot of them. Whichever way you wish to play it is fine.
► Moida submissions continue to be open!
► More to come... keep your eyes and ears open.

If you had to guess, then, what are the ways she might respond to your idea?

[highrisk]

Guess so...

[brotograph]

[ looks at him ]

So let's have her work off some of that steam, then I can positive-ify her, and then you can get her to nap.

[petalbursts]

My semblance back home lets me move super fast, if I can channel sunrise into my speed...I might be able to keep up with her. At least to draw her attention, so the others can try and restrain her.

[nightchild]

...We won't make her speak to her or anything like that. Maybe just as a reminder -- that we're not doing this because we're selfish -- we have people who are important to us back home too.

[georeject]

Well, we can try it. But I've also seen her get more aggressive when it comes to the memory of Makoto, so... like I said, it could go either way.

Though as long as it's temporary, perhaps more aggression isn't inherently a bad thing here—she needs release, not a lid.

[highrisk]

... I'll just stick with you, if that's okay.

[ damien is also a mostly normie and he's had enough fighting! no thank you! will he be helpful to jiuqing? probably not. but here he is. ]

[allomantic]

If anyone needs to get close to her, I might be able to at least slow her sword down.

[nightchild]

[yeah he'd die in .1 seconds if he tried to get close,]

If the talking doesn't work, then we can try that.

[ktiseos]

Well, should she become aggressive-- I believe I can manage more defensive capability than usual.

Whatever the rest of you choose to do, I can bear the brunt of her anger.

[brotograph]

Okay! That can be our back-up plan.

[gogoghostpowers]

[ just so i can establish using canon powers here, Danny is gonna watch Vax forming knife after knife. ]

Huh...

[ He looks down at his palm, focusing...and after a few moments, it's wreathed in yellow energy! That then turns an acidic green. He shoots off a quick energy beam at the floor in front of him. He can't help but laugh a little, triumphant. ]

Nice.

[graverot]

Yep. Anybody who doesn't want to have to fight will be safe over here.

[theampirequeen]

... Yeah let's not try that. Besides, if she stops being upset, she'd stop trying to murder people for no reason probably.

[graverot]

Well, I've talked with my words to Steel over the years a lot...

[so. probably violence tbh.]

It can't hurt to try to talk to her but my guess is she needs somebody to stand up to her a little bit, too, or she's not going to listen.

[theampirequeen]

... I feel like if that doesn't work it'll just make her even more pissed.

[graverot]

Yeah, let me know. Making sure anyone who goes down doesn't bleed out is something I can do from here.

[he can also cancel all of Steel's crits.]

[daggering]

Yeah. Think you're exactly right, Clarte. I'll get out there and try and wear her out.

[ his face says "of this temper tantrum" but he does not say that out loud. he is grinning a little, though so it's fine?? sometimes you just like danger ]

[theampirequeen]

Honestly, let's just hit her upside the head with a shovel while she's distracted.

[ none of these are valid options she's just mad ]

[georeject]

[they nod.]

... I think it'd be good for Steel to realize that she's not in charge of us. Which I don't mean badly, but... it feels like she's trying to carry too much responsibility.

[nightchild]

[he nods]

She probably needs this too -- to vent out her emotions and stuff. Everyone who can fight can go toe to toe with her, and people like me can stay back in the meantime, until we're needed.

[chevaliered]

Generally speaking, I'm not asking you to come up with an illusion right now.

[theampirequeen]

If people wanna fight her straight up, they might wanna invest in rubber armor or some junk. Since that doesn't conduct electricity.

[ she is just saying ]

[brotograph]

Yeeeah. No one wants to feel something that isn't their own.

[daggering]

[ whats up danger.mp3 ]
