WEEK SIX: MINGLE

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 [community profile] 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.

Vax and I investigated the central node last week, to check on the archways. We heard the sound of something crumbling, and found what appeared to be the remnants of an archway at our feet-- then something in the sky, almost seeming to distort it. After it passed, a note blew by and caught on me, which-- we suspect was written by Dreamer. We found what appeared to be their mark upon us afterward, though it faded within a few days.

And in that message-- it appears they wish for refraction. Think it ought to be embraced. They made mention of their own death at another's hands, and how this somehow altered their perspective. Combined with the message Clarte has already shown, from one who regretted going along with Dreamer's ideas... I think it goes without saying that we ought not take heed of their words too readily.

[just a preemptive warning, before he continues:]

In the end of this note they wrote: "Blood is the only way out, it must be," repeatedly. Over and over, overlapping itself to where it was nigh illegible, frantic.

Dreamer's a dick.

[ the succinct version of this ] Wasn't even 'appeared to be' their mark, it was definitely their mark.

It came with no ill effect, however.

No. More like a creepy reminder that they're always watching, or whatever.

... Kinda like the pigs, though. They didn't actually do anything. I only felt weird that first day, when I had the actual dream - woke up short of breath - and then when I finished the task, I had the little pig mark. This guy's got shitty taste in tattoos.

Oh, cool, that's not creepy at all.

Man, if Dreamer went nuts after they died, does that mean the dead are all dealing with them right now? Yikes. I wish we'd found out about Dreamer being cuckoo earlier.

... A crumbling archway, that looked like it had been drained of all color?

I believe it was, yes.

Then it's the same as the other week.

I wonder if the other three have similarly broken archways.
