04 - week four

WEEK FOUR
Saturday comes to a close, and it’s time for some rest and recovery. Perhaps the TLC you deserve will come this week, or perhaps the nightmare will continue. It’s hard to say with things being so strange around you, from Wei Wuxian’s disappearance to the sudden addition of objects and places and creatures from your homes. Who knows what this week will bring? Nothing ordinary, that’s for sure.

You wake up on Sunday to an increase in those little glimpses you saw yesterday. What were snippets of songs, locations that might’ve seemed familiar, and creatures that were dormant, are now all alive and whole. When you go to the karaoke bar, the songs you once knew are there. Monsters and animals are alive and sentient. New business are abound. Vehicles are operable, and perhaps some of your old belongings are back, too.

However, some of these things aren’t even things that should exist outside of your dreams. They may be far too strange and unusual to be real, or just things you don't remember ever seeing. The only thing you remember about these things in particular is that they were, quite literally, in your dreams this week.

That being said, every few hours, all of these things from your homes and dreams fade out and get replaced by new sounds, places, beasts….only to maybe come back again at another time.

Well. At least there's one constant here: You’ve got a handful of new locations to look at, with the fog having spread once more, and they aren't going anywhere. There aren’t as many new places that are native to Estelline this time around, but that may be for the best, considering everything going on.

OOC NOTE
OOC: Details on this week can be found here!

Also, we have a lot of participants for the news activity from last week. Neat! Everyone who participated in some capacity will have a small polaroid camera delivered to their doorstep. There's limited film, though - 10 photos per camera. It doesn't seem like there's any extra film at this time, either.

Finally, there will not be any weekly tasks this week. You guys are going to be busy with memshare and dreamscape stuff; instead, enjoy the Estelline University Newspaper!

[ The creature giggles before climbing up on Riku's shoulder.

Fai finally fully appears behind the counter. A girl peeks out of the kitchen, holding a tray close to her chest. ]


I see Mokona found you first! Welcome!

Ah, hi! I'm not sure where this is, but...

[ He walks towards the bar. ]

Um...is this a cafe of some sort?

[personal profile] partymagician 2022-06-17 01:38 pm (UTC)(link)
It is!

[ He gestures to the coffee machines and the dessert case. ]

We can serve you whatever coffee you might be in the mood for, and we have the perfect dessert to go along with it!

Hmm, so I can order whatever I want? Do you have any drinks that are sweet?

[ Lay it on him Fai!!! ]

I'm not too picky about the dessert, as long as it tastes good.

Hmmm… we could try an iced mocha.

[ In fact, Fai will start working on that now. ]

Sakura, pick out your favorite dessert for him!

[ The girl—Sakura—nods and makes her way over to the dessert case. She’s putting a lot of thought into her decision… ]

That sounds good. I'll have one of those!

[ Mochas are delicious, and he peeks over at Sakura. She seems to be giving this a lot of thought. ]

Anything is okay! Please don't think too hard about it...

[ That seems to give Sakura a bit of courage and she nods.

"Do you like chocolate cake? I really like this lava cake we have!"

Fai glances over, smiling a little bit to himself as he makes Riku's drinks. The look on his face is fond... ]

Yes, chocolate cake is perfect!

[ He's sure Tenn would enjoy himself here...

Riku looks over at Fai as he makes the drinks.

Thank you, but I have a weird question. Where are we?

[ Fai, Sakura, and Mokona all turn to stare at Riku. ]

This is the country of Outo. [ He frowns. ] Hmmm... you really should register with them, because you'll be unable to purchase anything otherwise.

[ ... ]

What you're ordering today can be on the house though.

[ Mokona pokes Riku on the cheek. "You can clean our dishes for us!" ]
