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.

Are YOU the human bear wrestler that's died twice?
cleaved: (🔴 103)

[personal profile] cleaved 2026-02-26 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
Sneaky! Saying you're not a connoisseur. [ rawiyah stop ]

Explain the human bear.
frostythehitman: (idk about that)

[personal profile] frostythehitman 2026-02-26 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
He's a human. Who can turn into a bear.
Not like a werebear where it happens under the full moon or anything
He can just turn into a bear whenever he likes

and yes, it's a literal bear.
katzepaw: (dried carrot)

[personal profile] katzepaw 2026-02-26 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
You are a fan of bears!
frostythehitman: (god ur such a pain)

[personal profile] frostythehitman 2026-02-26 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
not really
I don't exactly like the guy
katzepaw: (cloud kill)

[personal profile] katzepaw 2026-02-26 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
Why did you choose to write human bear knowing we'd go into a spiral...
frostythehitman: (well it took a lot of work)

[personal profile] frostythehitman 2026-02-26 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
I didn't know you'd go into a spiral
but maybe I should've.
I wasn't thinking about the other definition of a human bear when I wrote that
it was just the simplest explanation I could think of for what he was.
katzepaw: (dried carrot)

[personal profile] katzepaw 2026-02-26 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
You could have just said bear...
frostythehitman: (judging)

[personal profile] frostythehitman 2026-02-26 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
that would've made people think i was just wrestling a normal bear, like the animal, in the woods for no reason
katzepaw: (dried carrot)

[personal profile] katzepaw 2026-02-26 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
But the fact that it is a human who becomes a bear makes it more normal.

Where I am from lots of people can become bears but I probably would have said a shapeshifter bear, maybe. Ah, but you live and learn.
frostythehitman: (what the fuck is this now)

[personal profile] frostythehitman 2026-02-26 01:36 am (UTC)(link)
huh.
shapeshifter bear isn't bad, although to me that sounds like they could shapeshift into anything, not just a bear.
where i'm from, turning into animals is very rare.


[ even though he's already admitted to getting turned into a frog himself ]

[personal profile] headmt 2026-02-26 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
yeah i bet you were thinking about human bears
frostythehitman: (well it took a lot of work)

[personal profile] frostythehitman 2026-02-26 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
i should've just gone with the town full of vampires
cleaved: (🔴 121)

[personal profile] cleaved 2026-02-26 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
Your werebears need the full moon to transform?
Luccians can just do that on their own, no matter what animal, like this guy, though I guess I don't know if the moon has any additional properties...

Did you really win or is that the lie?
frostythehitman: (greasy)

[personal profile] frostythehitman 2026-02-26 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
I didn't win.
At least, not that time around
I got my win against him later.
cleaved: (🔴 001)

[personal profile] cleaved 2026-02-26 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
Good, you can't let someone have an up on you like that.
