REMAINING
Good morning, sweet fruits! The sun is shining, the birds are singing... it's a wonderful day to get up and start the season properly. When you wake up, you're very quickly herded off the boat by a string of harried bunnies who are shouting about schedules and timing. You'll find the Fruit Hosts (Lemon, Lime, and L'orange) have come down to the beach to greet you, and lead you to your brand new home! Why don't you check it out? While you know that there's a lot in store this week (such as an event on Wednesday and a mysterious all-day broadcasting scheduled for Saturday), until then? You're free to live your life. Explore your new locations, get to know your team (including your team leaders!) and get used to the feeling of being watched at all times. The only place you're safe from cameras are in your team bedrooms and in the bathrooms. Remember that. Or perhaps you do want to be in front of the cameras? Well, have no fear. The Confessional has arrived. Located in the mansion, this little slice of reality tv is there for all contestants to really get juicy. Check out the page for how it all works. Hmm... but after the initial excitement of moving into your lounge and new home fades, you'll find that you feel sort of itchy and scratchy. There's someone on your mind, right? Someone special. And it's not necessarily romantic (though it could be if you're brave enough), but you are drawn to this person intrinsically - you want to hang out with them basically forever. Almost as if a red string connects your fates.
A NEW CHALLENGE APPROACHES
Whoa, remember that thing we said about twists? Well, here's one for you. It's red string week! This effect means that your character and another are intrinsically linked. You want to be next to them at all times. You want to talk to them. Hold their hand. Cuddle and hug and spend soooo much time with them. Well, in a purely platonic way of course. This doesn't mean that you have to be around each other 24/7, but the more time you spend away from each other — the stronger urge to see them again. How sweet? And how very awkward if you happen to be matched up to someone who's not on your team. Whoopsies.

[gives him a 6. kiss.]
abracatdabra: (i swear sometimes)

[personal profile] abracatdabra 2026-02-25 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
[ covering his face like he is shy ]

Oh dear. What a bold game!

[ clearly teasing ... maybe... ]
katzepaw: (dried carrot)

[personal profile] katzepaw 2026-02-25 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
It isn't my fault, I got made to hand out cards.
abracatdabra: ('cause i have no reference level)

[personal profile] abracatdabra 2026-02-25 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
[ peeks between his fingies ]

Are ye havin' fun with it, at least? [ leans forward to whisper ] Because if not, I know how to pull only the cards ye want in any deck.

[ NO CHEATING ]
katzepaw: (undead eyeball)

[personal profile] katzepaw 2026-02-25 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
[ohhhhhhhhhhh. whispering back.]

Let's do it. They won't expect it coming from me, but you slide in the cards. What should we make sure someone gets?
abracatdabra: (it's a rich man's game)

[personal profile] abracatdabra 2026-02-25 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
Well... [ thinks deeply about the rules ] Sharing stories or information is always a good one. [ because cait is a gossip. ] I dinnae know about anyone's chemistry yet for a six, but we can rectify that with a couple of top five lists, cannae we?

[ cait you cannot be both a shipper AND a gossip. you little shit. ]
katzepaw: (copper piece)

[personal profile] katzepaw 2026-02-25 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. We will get someone's top five list of interests, and then give them a kissing card.
abracatdabra: (everybody wants to be a cat)

[personal profile] abracatdabra 2026-02-25 02:02 am (UTC)(link)
Now that's a plan!

Could also get certain people to compliment others. Share some joy around?

[ for example he's thinking of how silas is grumpy and would hate it. he is only thinking of ways to abuse this power ]
katzepaw: (glass cone)

[personal profile] katzepaw 2026-02-25 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
[so he is, yeah.]

That's smart. It will help everyone bond and start to open up to one another, which will be nice to see.
abracatdabra: (they just use your mind)

[personal profile] abracatdabra 2026-02-25 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
Yes... bonding.

[ nods and shows off his pack of cards he got off junpei with a >:3? face. how he do that without eyebrows ]
katzepaw: (undead eyeball)

[personal profile] katzepaw 2026-02-25 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
[he has a pretty good poker face but he jumped into this dynamic so instantly >:3 inside]
abracatdabra: (and the tide's gonna turn)

[personal profile] abracatdabra 2026-02-25 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
Who's the first person who could use our... help?

[ climbing caleb with no hesitation so he can perch on his shoulder and look over the crowd. he's too short for this ]
katzepaw: (thin reed)

[personal profile] katzepaw 2026-02-25 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
[i even have an icon for it.

anyway he looks significantly at how makina and silas just posted]

abracatdabra: ('cause i don't give a fuck)

[personal profile] abracatdabra 2026-02-25 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
[ this is just an amazing icon. anyway pats triumphantly ]
