WEEK THREE MINGLE 2.0
ahnkeen: week 3 mingle
in the sands of time
in the sands of time
32 Remain
Waking up this morning will reveal some unfamiliar surroundings. The soft ripples of the canals and dulcet tones of otamatone fade from your ears, replaced by a steady, dry breeze and the ambient noise of the local populace filtering in through open windows. Another thing you'll notice is that it's warm - very warm. Light dress is recommended here.
You all awaken in your beds—although they aren't the beds that you found yourself falling asleep in previously, and you might not even see the same face as you had the previous night. But one by one, as you filter out, you find yourselves in a house, a bit on the older side but still comfortable. The decor is neutral and inoffensive, much like you'd expect of a place that sees many visitors.
Unlike the previous worlds you've visited, Ahnkeen is a bustling, busy place, full of people of all sorts - and not all are human, so please check your biases at the door. Though the world around them is dry and scarce of resources, the market town itself is alive and well, business booming, and the merchants here keep a close eye on their wares in case of any thieves.
Traversing down the streets of the housing district are the Temporals. For the most part they seem ready to receive everyone. Throwing their hands into the air and meandering down Rameel will be spearhead the introductions this time—their puma daemon trailing behind them. As an extra treat, they'll even seem to have their “black box” from previous with them this fine morning on full blast.
"Hello, hello everyone! WELCOME TO AHNKEEN!! The home to the great markets...probably. I hope more of you are used to these scenery changes by now, and by popular demand are your favorite Temporals. We've changed the set for the hat trick, but we won't stop there."
Satariel is standing close to Yomiel, their undercloak absent and their daemon raven-formed on their shoulder - it squawks after Rameel yells the welcome, but they offer everyone a warm smile. They do reach over to... turn down the "black box" of Rameel's, without looking, smile still intact. "For those of you that kept your things from previous worlds, especially the treasure from our adventures underwater, you might find that they come in handy here. We are in a market, after all."
The last Watcher has also shed their undercloak, staring at Rameel while their polecat daemon chitters. "Anyway," they turn to the rest with a vague gesture at Satariel. "Try not to steal too much this time. The last few worlds were pretty quiet, but you might run into trouble with the locals here if you keep that up."
With the new week, travelers will find that they are no longer connected physically and emotionally to another participant. As opposed to being drawn to one person in particular, they'll find themselves with the need to be physically close to any other participant they speak to. Go on, hold their hand, get your snuggle on - it'll make you feel better. This effect lasts all week.

[ flat runs towards xie lian, trying to hold his hands over the other’s. ]
W-what do we do!?
no subject
[The "situation" being the puzzle of how to prepare these ludicrous customized drinks. Kim's brow creases as he focuses on the task and successfully blocks out some sassy criticisms.]
no subject
[ "may."
but sche is nyooming to kim's side to help him with the drinks. ]
Perhaps putting all the flavors in the coffee? Although I do not know how to make a "frap."
no subject
team xie lian and flat, team two halves of a whole idiot, is apparently going to get this pipe fixed! maybe!! xie lian has never seen a goddamn pipe in his life but he is strong enough to wrench weakened metal into place, so - despite the fact that he is being sprayed with water, he grabs onto one part of the burst pipe and starts looking around while he tries to wrench the broken bit downwards.
the water level in this cafe is beginning to rise. this is fine. ] Flat - how does this work?! Can we make it stop?!
[ this is fine ]
no subject
[ IS HE THE ONLY MODERN DAY CHARACTER HERE!? ]
Ah, uhm…j-just hold on a second! I’ll look!
[ he’ll let go of xie lian’s hand, to look for a knob? god his hair and clothes are soaked but who cares at this point. ]
M-maybe if we shut the water, we can figure out the rest later!
[ he sees a knob! but— ]
Which way is it to close it?
no subject
[Kim is mostly modern! He can blend, and so he does. The drinks are made. He pretends not to perceive the other ongoing crisis.]
no subject
Apologies for the delay. Thank you for your patronage.
[ the gaggle of girls take their drinks and leave in a huff. 8/20.
the next customers are a couple on a tea date. thankfully black and green tea are easy to make, but one of them gets increasingly more demanding over their poor partner having to wait for the kettle to brew. he is fortunate that sche is not vengeful and fills the pot with spraying pipe water, although she wants to. 10/20. ]
no subject
he is thankfully unaware of it as he is trying to guess how to turn the water off and it is still spraying him everywhere. ]
Left? [ he has no idea ] Try that!
no subject
[ if flat can even get his hand on the knob that is…
well, it seems that he can, and he gently turns it left. ]
I-is it working?!
no subject
Kim nods, makes and serves it, and it's on to the next customer.]
no subject
I think we may need to figure out a solution to the water problem a bit more quickly, if possible.
[ She isn't here to to help tho, as the next costumer comes up and asks for an espresso, which they call an "expresso." 12/20. ]
no subject
the water proceeds to come out even faster. xie lian squawks as he wrenches the pipe with his left hand so it goes towards the ceiling, creating a rainbow effect from the lights and also it's raining now. ]
No, not left, not left, not left!!!
no subject
[ RIGHT, THEN, RIGHT!!! ]
WHAT ABOUT NOW????
