WEEK SIX MINGLE

[grigori]

kings: week 6 mingle the big orange

22 Remain

Another week, another world to explore. Once again, waking brings you to unfamiliar surroundings, the bitter touch of Nerak cold fading to the more mild weather of autumn. The sound of cars or people talking or faint music greets your ears, no matter the time of day or night, and the light pollution is intense. Hope you weren't counting on seeing the stars.

Welcome to Kings, where you'll have your pick of shopping, entertainment, cute date spots, or just about anything else that you can think of! The city has something to offer for everyone. You'll never be wanting for things to do here - just try not to get lost in the subways. The locals may not be the most willing to help out.



Waiting for you to join them in the main plaza of Star Circle are Baraqiel, Shamsiel, and Suriel. You might have to push your way through the crowds to reach them properly, but no one's blinking an eye at your Watchers today. There are other people in costume hanging around already. What's a few angels to add to the antics?

Suriel greets everyone with their usual cheerful smile, fox daemon pressed close to their ankles to avoid getting lost in the crowd. "I bet this world reminds a bunch of you of home, huh? Let's all make the most of it while we're here!"

Baraqiel heaves a sigh, daemon weasel-formed and half-hidden in the folds of their hood as it suspiciously squints at every noise its little ears pick up. "Speak for yourself." They do not seem 100% thrilled with this worldhop, come the new week, but do at least offer something to the travelers gathered. "For those of you less used to cities like this, there are motorized vehicles of varying sizes in Kings - try not to get run over by them."

With a soft laugh, Shamsiel will look at Baraqiel and gently pat them on their upper arm and their falconet daemon will then proceed to take flight from their shoulder. At least they seem to be relieved that Baraqiel gave them a warning for those who aren't going to be familiar with it. "And much like the previous worlds we've been to, please be mindful of what you end up doing here. We are just visitors, after all, and it'd be rude if we left it all a mess."


As for your effect of the week... Your past injuries have cleared, with no phantom pains left to haunt you, your loved ones, or your launders. Instead, you'll find that you are unable to speak dishonestly - any time you try, your words get stuck on the tip of your tongue and never quite make it out. It's honesty week, lads - no more lying to yourselves or anyone else.

[ kicks up m'leggy ]

[beeingnice]

[


kaeya may feel someone's eyes on him. it's because a familiar-looking blonde girl is, like, peeking at him from where she's half-hidden behind some appropriately urban cover.]

[callalilies]

[ hm?

yeah he feels them. this is a new place, after all, so he's usually pretty alert on the first day. albeit, he is nursing coffee from a paper take out cup and frowning. hangover.

polaris just comes over to her urban cover and sniffs before giving a soft grumble-talk. kaeya looks over his shoulder finally. ]

You came with us too?

1/2

[beeingnice]

[ !!!


she jerks back from polaris because. hello? animal? in her space??]

2/2

[beeingnice]

[


and then she tries to act like that never happened.]

No. After that whole mess at the hotel, I called my mom and told her Daddy couldn't be trusted to take me on vacations anymore, so she told me to come and stay with her here for a while.

1/2

[callalilies]

2/3 i changed my mind

[callalilies]

[ polaris just sniffs a little more then trots back over to him, shifting into ermine form and clambering up his body to scarf around his neck! ]

3/3

[callalilies]

And you're just skulking around because...?

[ it's too early for this. coffee. happening but he doesn't take his eye off of her. come on out. ]

[beeingnice]

Because I'm wondering why you're here in my city now that I've come back home when you guys were just at that stupid ice hotel. It's weird! Isn't it weird? Are you guys stalking me?

[unsealthecatbox]

...what's with all the exotic animals today...?

[A lot of stuff happens in the city everyday, but still, sometimes there's stuff that's so unexpected you can't help but stare. The sight of Kaeya and his daemon is certainly one of those things. Today she has been seeing a lot of people with all sorts of animals, and for the most part, she has been trying to avoid them.

Regardless of what form that daemon has right now, it's not the sort of animal you'd expect to see someone have in the big city. She doesn't say that to Kaeya's face, instead wondering that aloud to herself, but still! She sure said that loud enough to be heard]

[callalilies]

[ it's honesty week... the words just kind of come out. ]

Our daemons.

[ he glances down at polaris who is in ermine form curled around his neck like a little ruff. at the sound of "daemon" he lifts his head, tail wagging just a little to get a better look? at this girl? ]

[unsealthecatbox]

Your daemons.

[She definitely is staring at this ermine attentively. First time seeing an ermine relatively up-close! It's kind of an interesting experience!]

Are you aware such a response only brings more questions than answers?

[She had a lot to do today, everyday stuff that didn't really stand out, and instead now she's talking to some stranger about exotic creatures walking around like it's nothing unusual.

No complaints there! It's interesting! But you wouldn't think she's intrigued, from the way she's looking at Polaris and Kaeya with the most unimpressed expression]

[callalilies]

Mmm, I suppose you're right. Then... [ mrgh... ] companions. That represent what one's soul is like.

[ polaris just gives a nod. have you ever seen an ermine nod? he just nods and creeps down his arm, which he lifts. polaris knows when he's being admired and just gets close enough for a better look on kaeya's crooked arm. ]

[evocationary]

[she's not a local so just yell at me if you want one instead of this stink elf

but if he's around the park at any point during the day, he gets a certain blonde slipping under his arm and stealing all his warmth.]

Buy me stuff. [hello??? why are you like this]

i love my elf

[callalilies]

[ oh come steal his warmth, yes, he just slinks an arm around her as polaris races across the park with his giant stick!!! he's bringing it over towards them immediately, tail wagging as his jaws adjust the giant stick in his mouth and he boof-grumbles at lup. hello! he bumps his stick into her knee softly. ]

Sure. What do you want?

[ he has a new outfit after all, he can buy lup something! ]

;w;

[evocationary]

[i cannot believe lup is going to play fetch with kaeya's soul. she very carefully takes the stick, and throws it as far as she can. not far, she's got like a strength score of eight, but she tries.]

Oh, now. That is a dangerous question to ask me, my dude.

[callalilies]

Just don't break my bank, darling. How about a meal to start, hm? Or another coat? You're freezing, still...

[ he does watch the stick go and polaris just runs, kicking up dirt and grass with his paws and snatching it. he gives it a proud wave around and proceeds to just. chew. yes. down with stick. down. but also he'll trail back to them eventually after abandoning it.

and then put grassy paws on lup's thighs as he pushes himself up! to! lick her face!

it's week 6, i'm going all out with my tasty cr.

kaeya doesn't expect the rush of familiar warmth, instead, he just smiles--beams even. ]

[seradotwav]

[ there's a local girl by the station, singing and playing guitar. her guitar case is open in front of her for tips! ]

[callalilies]

[ hello local girl! polaris in white ermine form has a few dollhairs in his little teeths as he runs up to her and with his paws, places it in the case. the ermine then sits there and waits!

more music? ]

[seradotwav]

[ she is immediately distracted by polaris, so the music comes to a pause! ]

Woah, cute! They don't even need a leash?

[callalilies]

No, he comes right back to me. He likes your music.

[ kaeya is over on a station bench listening. he has a cup of coffee on his knee and a warm sweater on that says I HEART NERAK on the front. polaris looks over and squeaks at him before squeaking back at her. he does a little flip! ]

[swordhandled]

Ahoy there!

Are you here for the convocation of heroes as well?

[callalilies]

Ahoy, yourself.

What's the convocation of heroes?

[swordhandled]

The convocation! The annual gathering of heroes from far flung realms of existence, where we might gather together and share tales and experiences.

[callalilies]

Wait, so you're used to this sort of thing? People from other worlds? Other worlds?

[ ARE YOU ALSO BEING FORCED TO MURDER EACH OTHER ONE BY ONE!? ]
