—THE SECOND WEEK—

On this fine Monday morning, all facilities have been cleared of damages (the washing machine, if we need to be specific). It is almost like none of the wild events that transpired last week ever happened. For some of you, it's easier to remember — your rooms are emptier than before, after all. In the end, the only remnants of those gone are your memories of them.

There is something off starting this Monday... If you stare at a spot for too long, the space distorts or pieces of it shift out of place for a second, then it's gone in one wink. Maybe your eyes are playing tricks on you? Maybe you need to sleep...? You don't feel weary. You feel fine.

Again, this week, the seers encourage participation in spite of tragedies and oddities. It's at the park — a favorite place for the NPCs. For this week, there are no white tables and tea sets, but instead tables of gardening tools. Uniforms are provided, for there are hive boxes (they're also called brood boxes) around the park.

OUTSIDE 🐝F EDEN

(a gardening and beekeeping workshop)

There are many things you can plant from herbs to flowers, which characters may find they grow at a faster rate. For beekeeping, characters will be instructed on how to care for bees and harvest honey! Yes, if you were wondering, these are the same bees from last Wednesday.

Instructed by whom? Well, this is the kicker, you must befriend or subjugate a bee, then they will help you by pollinating your plants and giving you guidance with the hive boxes.

How to tame them? The NPCs have provided the bees' favorite flowers... But if that doesn't work, they also provide tiny cuffs to arrest them.

Some observers may stray as they very well please, but you can talk to them for whatever reason.

MINGLE SUMMARY

• Locations have been cleaned up! However, if you stare at a spot for too long, it gets weird and distorts. HUh.
• NPCs are hosting a Outside of Eden event, which is a gardening and beekeeping event. Plant flowers, grow greens, harvest honey, and care for bees! But... Yeah. You have to get a bee buddy first.
• NPCs may also be spoken to on the mingle or privately at the church.
• Powers are still in effect. Consider using what you have for fun when you find the chance.

IMPORTANT STUFF

• Mini-CYOAs are OPEN. When we reach our cap for Mini-CYOAs, the thread will be frozen. We highly encourage organizing so no two groups or more hit the same location.
• Confessional is still OPEN until Friday evening.
• Most importantly, murder proposals and pathing submissions are OPEN! They will close on Tuesday pst morning/est noon.

Should I call you Fleur with the way the bees are treating you?

[adjourn]

"Fleur". Please explain to me the significance of this name.

[discernments]

It means flower, not unlike the way mort means death.

[adjourn]

I see. Though bees are not known to "swarm" flowers much, I will take it as a compliment.

[ They're so okay with having a lot of bees. It's not like they can get stung. ]

I will add "Fleur" to my list of possible designations. Would you like to try? I believe it will feel rather "ticklish".

[discernments]

[ i wasn't going to google beehive in french and fleur is just prettier ]

I don't think you can be a new home so much, so it's more for the image than the fact.

[ The picture, the story.

She laughs a little. ]

I welcome any bees.

[adjourn]

[ Apparently it's Ruche. That is a lot cuter-sounding than I was expecting.

They will just kind of scoop up a handful of bees in one of their hands and hold it out to Jeanne. Curious chonk of bees. ]

Of course, unless you attack them first, they will not sting.

[discernments]

[ she walks closer to the hand with the bees and stand still so the bees can swarm her however they want. ]

I have no reason to attack something so precious.

[adjourn]

[ She can have a handful of bees. Have you ever seen beekeeping videos where they just scoop up a handful of bees? Wish that were me. It's a very warm handful of bees. ]

I take it you are a lover of nature. I recall you requested aquatic animals; I hope the ones during the social event the prior week sated your desires some.

[discernments]

[ she will cherish this handful. i do not wish that were me but i hope that can be you someday. ]

They were wonderful to see! [ she beams. her ocean vibes are too real. ] I felt blessed. Will there be another social event this week?

[adjourn]

[ Bees are friend-shaped. ]

Yes, we think so. It would be a shame to invite you all for the premise of social activities and then give you nothing.

Is there anything in particular you wished to see?

[discernments]

[ she puts her hand under her chin, very thoughtful. and then she lifts a hand, like aha! ]

Extreme beach volleyball!

[ please don't consider this. ]

Or storytelling around a campfire?

[adjourn]

One is considerably more physical than the other. But both sound...

..."fun".

However, we do not have the space for a beach facility in full.

[discernments]

Do you still not know what fun is, Mort?

You can turn the orchestra hall into a beach for a day.

[adjourn]

We will ferry your request, then, as promised, and see if that is viable.

I do understand the concept. I think bees are fun.

[discernments]

Don't worry too much about my requests. As long as everyone can have fun, I'll have fun.

[ despite all the murder.... you know. ]

Hehe, so this week's activity is meant for you.

[adjourn]

Your requests will be weighed just as much as everyone else's. You all are the focal point of all of this, after all.

[ Tilting head just slightly. ]

For us?

[discernments]

Thank you.

[ she nods. ]

Do the others like bees as much as you? If this activity has been fun for you, then it's been as much for you as anyone else who's enjoyed it.
