( MINGLE - WEEK 2 )

[abhoth]

SURVIVORS: 40 The sun is shining, the air conditioner units hum as they always do, and a gentle morning breeze blows against the windows. The scent of pine cones and evergreen follow you wherever you go in the motel, save for the parking lot and outdoor pool. It seems like someone was very generous with the detergent while moping the floors. The two grandfather clocks (one on each floor) will ring with each passing hour, indicating the time of day without fail. With this knowledge — they'll note the motel will continue to be surrounded by fog until 8:00 AM on the dot. It is at that hour that the fog will begin to recede. Not enough to reveal the whole city, but enough to allow residents to explore some of the buildings surrounding the motel. And speaking of the motel, it seems like the Storage room has unlocked itself overnight. How quaint. Welcome to Week 2's mingle, everyone! As of this week, we are now accepting murder proposals. If you're interested in having your character murder someone this week, please send in your proposal before Tuesday, 9:00 PM EST. We'll be contacting you on plurk over the week to finalize the details, or ask for rescheduling if necessary. As always, feel free to PM us or send us a PP over plurk if you have any questions!

[they are normal! no trick decks here. and when Kaito receives the deck back in return, he closes his eyes and lays his palm on top of it]

[ooooohm]

I sense. . . [hmmm]

I sense. . . the five of clubs.

In your pocket.

[BETTER CHECK YOUR POCKETS APOLLO]

[because the five of clubs is in one of them]

[vitamin_a]

Wait what?

[You have to be kidding him. In his pocket? There's no way it's--oh my god there's something in his pocket, his fingers just stumbled into something. He doesn't even have to take it out to know it's his card. There's no way it's anything else but his card]

How did you -- I know, a magician doesn't reveal his secrets no matter what.

[Unless it's related to a murder]

[nowyouseeit]

[his only response is to grin, sweep an arm in front of himself, and take a pleased bow]

[how's that for impressive!1]

[vitamin_a]

[It was hella impressive, yep]

Are you sure you don't want to do shows with other magicians? I know someone who'd like to meet you once she hears about what you can do. Even if you're in another world she'd definitely try to reach you somehow.

[nowyouseeit]

[holds out his hand to retrieve Apollo's card]

That depends. Is she very good at what she does?

[vitamin_a]

[Here, take the card]

Trucy is amazing! She has been training herself as a magician and doing shows since she was eight years old. Recently her fame has increased considerably, and I'm sure soon she'll be recognized internationally just like her father and grandfather's troupe was!

[Apollo is genuinely thrilled to sing praises to Trucy]

[nowyouseeit]

[he takes it, and sticks it back into the deck. for real this time]

Really?

[he perks up, immediately interested in this Trucy girl]

Heh, she sounds impressive! I'd sure like to meet her myself, if I'm gonna be honest.

Maybe we could perform together. . .
