WEEK FIVE MINGLE

nerak: week 5 mingle at your service
25 Remain

Waking up this morning will reveal some unfamiliar surroundings. While Camebit had an autumnal chill in the air, things are a little different, now - the air is frigid, and waking up is an adventure, considering you are swaddled to the nines and cozied right up to your roomie of the week (where you have one, anyways). Everything around you is made of ice and packed snow, fogged glass and porcelain, and it is freezing. Who thought this was a good idea? Even the brisk chill of Camebit in the skies above everything was more forgiving than this! This isn't a transition! Whose manager can you speak to..?

About that.



You have to trek out of the lodging, and over into the building made of actual wood and stone, to actually see your Watchers of the week. They're all dressed in their full cloaks again to combat the chill, even in this building, although both Rameel and Satariel are standing much closer to Yomiel than they usually do - much like they had in Ahnkeen, actually.

"Good morning and welcome to Nerak! If you've ever wondered what it was like to stay at an ice hotel, then you're in luck!" Rameel says with moderate flourish as they make sure to keep close to Yomiel—their daemon currently not found anywhere near them as they make the announcement. Looks like they're without their black box of musical wonders this morning.

While the other two Watchers press close, Yomiel's daemon has wrapped itself around their neck like a polecat scarf. Warm. Arm cradled gently against their chest, they pause to glance at Satariel before greeting everyone. "Try to be careful. The ice can get slippery, especially when you're all looking like that and leaving a mess everywhere you go." Whatever that means.

Satariel seems a little more subdued than usual but offers everyone a smile, daemon bear-shaped against their back, large head peering around at everyone while they take in the travelers that come to join them here in the hotel lobby. Their cloak is completely closed around them - not even the front of their dress can be seen, and they're clearly holding it tightly shut. "Please be nice to the hotel staff - if I catch any of you being rude to them, I'll kick you clear across the tundra before sticking you in their outdoor 'jail' for timeout. We're guests, but they're working hard to accommodate us, alright?"


With the new week, travelers will find that they no longer the adorable animal features they did in Camebit, but something much less cute. Injuries from their pasts have come back to haunt them, major or minor, and they cannot be healed. The good thing is that they don't seem to hurt or really take a toll on the travelers at all - at least, not until they're touched, and then both you the other will feel the pain from the moment the wound was inflicted. This effect lasts all week.

[ how does that thing even fit in there, kaeya? ]

A hard day's work, is that what we call it? If anyone asks, we have no idea why those girls got the sudden urge to stalk Sholmes and Kotetsu, right?

[ gib flask, he wants some. ]

[He'd better be passing that flask on once he's done with it.]

Not in the slightest.

Thank the Twelve they didn't ask you to sign it.

[...oh, that's strong. Not that she wasn't expecting it to be, but--there's. She takes her drink, and her expression doesn't entirely give her away, but. There's a little cough a moment later.

Just. Passing that back to Kaeya now. It's fine.]

[ don't ask him how it fits, it just does okay?

alisaie coughs and he just smiles a little to himself, waiting for the flask to return to him now. ]


Sworn to secrecy for our sins, sounds perfect to me.

[ heh. ]

Dodged that one, didn't we?

[ look at her go. the littlest drunk. ]

It's not like that can demand returns when we jump worlds anyway.

[IT WOULD TAKE MORE THAN ONE DRINK OF WHISKEY TO GET HER DRUNK "how much more" that's not the important part here IT'S STILL MORE!!!!]

It does make you wonder what happens when we arrive and when we leave. Will they even remember paying for those drawings?

[Or the nonexistent book... did they ever come up with a name for it anyway]
callalilies: webtoon. (❄️ pfft.)

If you had to name your book, what would it be, Alisaie?

[ kickin back now. ]
