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.

[ is tuesday too late for some local npcs.... local man is dressed in semi modern clothes now but just looks like a giant tourist staring up at skyscrapers... ]

[beeingnice]

[


just. watching him. until she just gives a little huff.]

Have you seriously never seen a skyscraper before? You look like some country bumpkin.

[yueshen]

[ he doesn't know what a bumpkin is (it's you, xie lian) but he shakes his head very slowly when the young lady addresses him. ]

I have never seen one before, no. Is this place quite familiar to you, young lady?

[beeingnice]

It's very familiar - this is where my mom lives. So of course I know it like the back of my hand.

[she waves a hand. the back of this hand, maybe.]

What are all of you doing here, anyway? I didn't think you guys had good enough taste to come to a good city like this after that stupid ice hotel. Like, why even pick that place for a vacation...

[evocationary]

[immediately zooms up to him and shoves a boba tea in his hands]

Drink this. Don't choke.

[yueshen]

[ see, at this age, normally taizi dianxia would not just take a drink because he has Proprieties (aka: he's picky)

however it is lup so he just takes it, eyes it curiously and then sips....?

and then looks surprised. like, almost comically. ] - Oh, it's - why is it chewy? Is this tea?

[ ??? ]

[evocationary]

[he cannot resist lup's wiles]

Yeah, it is tea. But it has like chewy bits in it, which would be gross normally but it's not. Because the chewy bits are delicious. [her ear flicks.] Isn't it good?

I'm finding all sorts of neat things in this place.

[unsealthecatbox]

[Well this one looks more lost than all she has met so far. Animal? Check, this is one of that bunch. Hmmmm...]

You should stop staring upwards. You'll hurt your neck -- and you look like a complete tourist, too.

[If she had left her warning only up to the first half, it'd have sounded kind enough, but then she had to add that second part and make it harsher. No animosity! Just...pretty baffled by how odd and absolutely inconspicuous all these people are]
