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.

[Getting put on the spot all of a sudden is an uncomfortable experience. It happening while a complete stranger come and hugs you like she's a close friend is even more uncomfortable, but one look around is enough for this redheaded girl to assess the situation. Huh. That's what's going on?

She doesn't really reciprocate the hug, but at least she passes a hand over Reze's back, glaring at that guy's retreating head]

Sorry, sorry. The undesirable company must have made the wait feel endless, I'm sure.

[A parting snipe to that guy, definitely. She doesn't even care if he heard her or not, she just had to say it]

[quiz]

[ At least she plays the part well. Reze looks relieved. ]

Creeps are crawling around every city, huh?

[unsealthecatbox]

They're everywhere!

[She lets go, at least sympathizing with Reze on that regard]

You'd have to live under a rock to avoid them crawling out of the woodwork -- and I cannot say with certainty that'd be enough.

['Every city', huh. Perhaps this one comes from another city, she thought! It must be pretty awful, to travel somewhere else and still be accosted by random assholes trying to hit on you]

[quiz]

Gladly. [ She says it with a wave of her hand. ] But I find a comfortable rock to live under, where's a good place to eat around here?

[unsealthecatbox]

Easy. Come along -- you'll see once you get there. Don't worry about paying.

[This girl inviting Reze definitely doesn't look like she's in need for money! Paying for someone else should be no issue!

Having invited her, she moves]

[quiz]

[ Reze is so glad she hasn’t had to pay for anything so far… so, so glad. ]

Okay!

[unsealthecatbox]

[Before long she leads Reze to a pretty nice-looking restaurant! It definitely doesn't seem like a cheap place at all, but at least it's not some stuffy first-class restaurant. Seems like the exact sweet spot between elegance and convenience. Leading Reze inside, she invites her to sit by the window]

My treat. Get whatever you want.

[Doesn't take long for a waiter to appear. Hopefully your daemon isn't in a form you can't hide, Reze! Animals aren't allowed inside restaurants! This girl, without missing a beat, just takes a bundle of cash and slaps it on the table]

If you see any animals around here ignore that and keep it to yourself. It's fine.

[Definitely not the first time this one gives money around like it's nothing. Once the waiter unscrupulously takes the bribe and leaves, this girl just...leans on the table, a tad uncertain how to ask:]

I don't mean to pry, but...are those really your soul?
