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.

Aw, what makes you say that?
syncer: (I'm Always Trying To Get You Off)

[personal profile] syncer 2026-02-26 08:03 am (UTC)(link)
[ :) ]

You wouldn't have brought it up otherwise.

I just thought it was interesting!
syncer: (American Made)

[personal profile] syncer 2026-02-26 08:11 am (UTC)(link)
If a damaged air fryer that we already fixed is our biggest problem so far, I think we're doing pretty okay.

[personal profile] quantizer 2026-02-26 08:19 am (UTC)(link)
Broken and fixed is pretty impressive. Though it might be more impressive to have not broken anything at all.
syncer: (I'm Like A Lawyer With The Way)

[personal profile] syncer 2026-02-26 08:26 am (UTC)(link)
Take it up with the rest of my team. Not like we needed it for tonight either.

[personal profile] quantizer 2026-02-26 08:32 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not their mom, I don't need to go around scolding anyone. I really do just think it's funny.
syncer: (The Last Of The Real Ones)

[personal profile] syncer 2026-02-26 08:40 am (UTC)(link)
The good thing is everybody took it in stride. That made it easier while it was being fixed.
quantizer: (pic#17325439)

[personal profile] quantizer 2026-02-26 08:52 am (UTC)(link)
See? And now you know that you can handle difficulties together. [ yay. ]
syncer: (The (Shipped) Gold Standard)

[personal profile] syncer 2026-02-26 09:22 am (UTC)(link)
And we can say the same about L'Orange?
quantizer: (pic#18313036)

[personal profile] quantizer 2026-02-26 09:30 am (UTC)(link)
No difficulties so far. Maybe it'll stay that way.
syncer: (Star 67)

[personal profile] syncer 2026-02-26 09:41 am (UTC)(link)
If it doesn't, you know you can always come back here.

[ Until she gets kicked out, but that's not important here. ]

[personal profile] quantizer 2026-02-26 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll probably take you up on that even if everything is fine with L'Orange.
syncer: (The Last Of The Real Ones)

[personal profile] syncer 2026-02-26 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay. I'm only a couple of floors away, so... you know how to find me.
quantizer: (pic#18298776)

[personal profile] quantizer 2026-02-26 09:53 pm (UTC)(link)
We've also got phones, you know. [ ok. ]
syncer: (Where Did The Party Go)

[personal profile] syncer 2026-02-26 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
That's... true. A text would probably be faster if you didn't want to come all the way down.
quantizer: (pic#18298784)

[personal profile] quantizer 2026-02-26 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
... I meant... We could call each other any time. If we needed to.
syncer: (Of This Song So We Wouldn't Get Sued)

[personal profile] syncer 2026-02-26 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh. Oh, yeah, you're right. That... is an option.
quantizer: (pic#17325440)

[personal profile] quantizer 2026-02-27 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
Like if you're having trouble sleeping at night or something.
syncer: (Sophomore Slump)

[personal profile] syncer 2026-02-27 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
[ Listen just because he may need a bellhop for the bags under his eyes... ]

Yeah. If you're having trouble, don't worry about texting or calling me. I'll pick up.
quantizer: (pic#18312994)

[personal profile] quantizer 2026-02-27 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
[ JUNPEI PLEASE SLEEP. ]

... Okay. Thanks, Jumpy.
syncer: (XO)

[personal profile] syncer 2026-02-27 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
[ No. But he settles for a smile and we can assume they spent the rest of the party just hanging and doing party things. Okay bye. ]
