Welcome to week two, Teens Who Are Definitely Searching for Love!

Hopefully everyone got a lot of rest over the weekend, and are bright-eyed and bushy-tailed for the upcoming week, because there are a few things of interest this week.

But first, some changes of note in the house!

First: there is a giant rectangular box on the living room table, addressed to Lessing. It is a care package. The only thing in it is his sword.

There is some Bauernbrot bread on the counter. Ask Lessing about that too.

There is now a hot tub near the pool. It’s large enough to seat about six teens comfortably, but you can get more in there if you really try for some reason.

Okay I think that’s everything. Additionally, Tsukasa is here early this week! He’s looking pretty perky, seemingly recovered from the Match Ceremony, and he’s got some interesting info to share with everyone.

No, he's more of a beast.

[ Not a lie. ]

[ohwoe]

Is he secretly the ferocious, man-eating kind?

[Important to know.]

[singurarity]

Not anymore.

[ohwoe]

[Wait, what.]

Did he really used to be? Tell me about it.

[singurarity]

It's a really long story. But the point is, unless you're Merlin, Fou's absolutely harmless.

... Though is that disappointing for you?

[ohwoe]

Well, of course. I was hoping for some gruesome tale about him transforming into a man-eating creature at the drop of a hat. It would certainly make this show more interesting if that happened.

[Not that this show. Needs to be any more interesting than it is.]

[singurarity]

Okay, but if he ate half the contestants, we'd have a hard time winning.

[ Sagely. ]

--Actually, how are things? With Ryuji.

[ohwoe]

[True, but it'd be funny. (no)

She raises a brow at the question, but she has no reason to hesitate to answer, either.]

Going well, I'd say. He's told me a few very interesting stories about himself, most of them very surprising. He's much... stranger than I initially gave him credit for.

[The way she says it, this implies it's not a bad thing.]

[singurarity]

Stranger? No kidding?

[ She wouldn't have called that. ]

[ohwoe]

No, no kidding. And not in a bad way.

[In case that wasn't clear.]

I'm not sure how much can divulge without him knowing, but he's lived a thrilling life. One that well overshadows even my own last semester at Nevermore.

[singurarity]

...

That's a big deal. [ She's impressed. ]

[ohwoe]

Yes, there's more to him than meets the eye.

[A beat.]

I have the feeling you could say that about many here, actually. Which makes it even harder to judge our matches accordingly.

[singurarity]

Yeah, and a lot of people probably want to keep certain things to themselves...
