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.

How are we going to find a replacement!? Do we have to buy one ourselves???

[ hrrrrghhh this bass sounds awful still, ]

Mister Kim, can’t we fix it??

[sponsoredby]

[ Kotetsu just starts to smack it now? ]

Maybe something's just loose in there..

[voltadomar]

You can try opening it up and checking the inner wiring, but... [He just looks back to his mildly-garbage-sounding guitar.]

I'm not a technician. I don't know about this any better than the rest of you.

[aono]

Open it up, sure. Let's do that.

[He. Did not listen to the rest of what Kim said.

And he's prying off the back of the speaker just in time to see it go 'pop' and smoke come out of some of the expensive-looking parts.]

[escardos]

[ flat knows enough about electronics to know that:

a. that’s not how you open a speaker
b. smoke should not be coming out of a speaker at Any Time. ]

That thing is totally fried. We probably have to change the transitors and the cables as well.

[sponsoredby]

[ Yeah. There's a wince when Rin rips the back off. ]

...Well. If we weren't expected to pay for it before, I think they're going to insist on it now.

[voltadomar]

Not at all. They should have known the risks of getting laymen to work with delicate equipment like this.

[A strum of the guitar.

... It doesn't sound like garbage!

...... There are so many other instruments here.]

[aono]

[IMMEDIATELY SLAPPING THE BACK OF THE SPEAKER SHUT! And then he unplugs it.]

We'll just...leave that for someone else to find.

[He's standing up and quickly scurrying away to go help with the instruments.]

[escardos]

You can’t play in a band without speakers!

[ he can’t believe he has to be one of the voices of reason here???????

but he will also try to find something to just… cover it up. ]

Maybe they’ll think they, um… forgot it.

[sponsoredby]

[ He's also looking around and sweats nervously. ]

We probably should let someone know. It'd be worse if we were caught later.

[voltadomar]

[Kim returns from putting away that one single guitar he's been working on this whole time.]

Up to you.

[To... Kotetsu? Maybe. There are four of them here. Kim just doesn't want to make that call.]

[aono]

[Kim is valid.

And Rin will fuck around with another guitar for a bit and pretend he didn't touch the speaker.]
