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.

[ This tiger and his tiger daemon are out here checking out the autumn city. ]

[beeingnice]

[what's he wearing and how hard does chloe have to judge his fashion sense]

[sponsoredby]

[ something like this. surprisingly not something awful. for now, at least. ]

[beeingnice]

[oh. huh.]

Your facial hair could use some work, but your overall look isn't that bad. 7 out of 10, I guess.

[no one asked for your ratings, chloe.]

I happen to like my beard a lot. It gives me character.

[ but otherwise, thanks, I guess?? ]

[beeingnice]

"It gives me character" is just a fancy way of saying "no one else would do it like this because it looks weird."

[sponsoredby]

Hey. It works for me. It's fine if no one else would want it.

[swordhandled]

Oh, is that a familiar at your side!

[sponsoredby]

I guess you could call her something like this.

[ finley looks proud! ]

[swordhandled]

A mighty familiar! I can tell they have a powerful strength within them.

[sponsoredby]

That makes me happy to hear. She's quite brave.

[ is it weird to talk about your soul like that? it's true, though. finely is a good tiger friend. ]

[swordhandled]

OK, though, real talk.

How do you have a tiger, man? Are you like... the next Tiger Lord?

[sponsoredby]

Tiger Lord?

[ he makes a face and shakes his head ]

You probably wouldn't believe me even if I told you how.

[swordhandled]

Ooh, mysterious! I can respect it.

[brocoded]

Whoa! Did a tiger escape?

[ Time to...

go closer and snap a pic. What is danger? ]

[sponsoredby]

She's my companion. Her name's Finley.

[ Well, at least Finley doesn't seem bothered by this! ]

[brocoded]

She's not the man-eating kind, right?

[sponsoredby]

She's more of the protecting type. So unless you hurt someone, she won't do anything.

[unsealthecatbox]

[Now a tiger. This girl sighs. You know what, fine, this is what's going on today. These are going some strange few days]

Now a tiger...? The animals get more dangerous the more of you I see around here.

[She almost wants to see how far things will escalate if she keeps meeting more people with these...daemons, were they? Whatever]

[sponsoredby]

She's not going to attack anyone. I know, hard to believe when you see a stray tiger roaming on the streets.

[ But Finley does remain where she's at, watching the girl from her spot, tail flicking lazily. ]

[unsealthecatbox]

More like impossible to believe. I'll think of you once I see the inevitable report of widespread panic.

[Someone sooner or later will call the authorities, she thinks!]

Obviously it won't be me calling emergencies. I have been meeting people with animals this whole day.

[sponsoredby]

[ Honestly, someone probably should?? But it's fine. ]

There are a few of us around here like this. Sorry she can't shift to a different form on command.

[unsealthecatbox]

[Shift to a different form on command, he says. This girl is definitely annoyed]

Why do so many of you say so much senseless stuff?

[Did the world go mad while she wasn't looking? Seriously, there's so much incomprehensible stuff happening. She's just some girl in a big city, she didn't ask for all this to start happening all around her!]

[sponsoredby]

Yeah... guess it would seem pretty senseless to most people, wouldn't it?

[ It might sound like he's talking down to her, but he honestly isn't. Big RIP. ]

[unsealthecatbox]

[Big RIP, indeed]

Then how about you explain it in a manner that doesn't make you and everyone else with these animals sound like complete nutcases?

[She asks that and part of her feels regret immediately. She really feels like she's on the verge of getting into stuff she's going to struggle to comprehend]
