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.

EMBRACE SPACE

[showhost]

Respond here if your teens are using the embrace space, and I will set up a room for you guys!

DATES

[showhost]

This is the place to request dates! You can request specifically where the characters will go, a general vibe of what you want them to have, or just leave it up to the producers!

There is no limit on the number of dates you can go on, or the number of people you can bring on one date.

Have at it!

PROPERTY DAMAGE, ETC

[showhost]

This is a space for me to update for everyone to know if anything is totally wrecked in the house.

Pls ping me in the discord if your teen gets up to any house-wrecking mischief!

Damages:

• The banner is now gone. It’s been given to Wednesday. RIP, banner.
  
• There is now an old-timey firepit in the garden, a ring of stones around a small hole with some branches from trees in it
  
• We are now down to 12 beds. Ritsuka's bed has been split in half ~mysteriously~ (thank u Sanji and Minami)

MINI-EVENT

[showhost]

Welcome to your first CR building mini-event! This week, characters can obtain a sheet of tasks from Tsukasa (u do not have to tag him for this unless you want to, he is not Mod Mandated Tsukasa) which will serve as their “scavenger hunt”.

The tasks can be found here.

The sheet can have any number of tasks on it, and you can OOCly pick whichever tasks seem the most fun for you! ICly, the characters won’t get to decide, though they can ask Tsukasa for another sheet if they want (please feel free to make sure they always get the tasks you want them to have to do, ofc).

Written at the top are the rules:

Please get at least 15 points to turn in your scavenger hunt.

Tasks that involve two people, like kissing someone on the lips, give points to both contestants.

If enough people turn in a completed sheet, you will gain a hint for the upcoming week.

Additional OOC notes:

• The sheets are ~ magical ~, so they know if you’re being truthful or not, or if the task was properly completed. They will automatically mark the task off when your character is finished with it.
  
• These tasks can be accomplished both in the house, or on dates
  
• The number of completed sheets it will take to win is [redacted] right now.
  
• Each character can only complete one sheet, but they can absolutely run around helping others complete theirs if they’ve still got the energy.
  
• Turn in just by checking in to this comment, it's fine, it's all honor system, you don't have to keep specific track unless you want to.

Feel free to ask any questions either here or in the discord! Turn in for these is due Thursday, Nov 21 10 AM EST so I can give you your hint before you all have to vote on the Truth Booth.

Hello, hello, comrades!

[Well. At least he's back to being sparkly. Whether that's a good thing or not surely depends on the character in question.]

I have excellent news for all of you. First, production is finally prepared to send all of you on dates! This is an excellent chance to take someone you'd like to get to know better away from the house and spend some quality time together.

[and spend production's money.

It's a win-win.

He nods approvingly, and then clears his throat and holds up a stack of papers.]

Secondly! There is a challenge, for those ready to take it on. I have here various tasks that need to be completed with your fellow competitors. If you can gather enough points, and if enough people turn them in, I will be able to provide a hint towards someone's match.

Best of luck! Everyone, do you best--I'm certain your hard work will pay off!

[he is so proud of everyone and also himself.]

[ohwoe]

Wednesday and Ryuji would like to go on a date!!! Ryuji would've asked the producers to pick somewhere spooky, because Wednesday would be into that.

[hgeegh]

Sanji and Josuke . . . something goofy to continue the goofy era between me and Jams.

Sanji and Dorothea with less goofiness for the lady's sake, because I can't do that to her. "What about him?" Did I stutter.

Please, and thank you!

[showhost]

spooks!

[hgeegh]

[Sanji is perusing his sheet of tasks in the main area with one hand in his pocket. When he glimpses a presence in his periphery, he lifts his head and waves the sheet once, regardless of who it may be.]

What do you think? We could use the hint.

[showhost]

sorry

at least there's this

[inparfait]

ritsuka + minami rng

&

minami + tsukasa rng

looks away from the camera or looks into them and rolls away

[inparfait]

[ hi sanji it's just who you wanted to see-

minami's looking over the sheet of tasks and then shrugging. ]

All of these are easy. Pick a point category!

[ohwoe]

[Wednesday Appears beside him.]

I'm here to do more than just stand and look horrifying.

[She means she's here, visiting the house, to help others get points if they need it.]

[titlecard]

i. scavenger hunt

[ Mark is staring at his sheet, brows furrowed. They should get the hint. It'd be stupid to not get the hint. But some of these tasks...

Okay, the smaller ones he can handle. But he should be trying for some of the bigger ones, too, to make sure he gets his sheet completed. But Discuss your fears with someone... Tell someone about something you regret... Tell someone something you don't think you should be forgiven for...

uuugghh. He throws his head back and groans. At least there's other stuff on his list, but still...

He rights himself, huffs a sigh, catches the eye of someone else with their own sheet. ]

What's on yours?


ii. hot tub

[ He may be physically fine and healthy now, but his body has been beaten to a pulp before. ... Many times. ... so, so many times already.

Which is to say, damn does being in the hot tub feel good. Mark is fully relaxed in it, arms propped up against its edges, eyes shut and just blissed out.

His eyes are still shut when he hears someone else approaching. ]

This is amazing. You coming in? [ A contented little sigh. ] It's on my scavenger hunt list so, bonus.

[ Also, if you didn't know he had abs before, you're welcome. He has abs. This is by far the most his physique has been on display since he got here. ]

[showhost]

one and two!

[hgeegh]

[He actually does not mind Minami, so the latter gets a casual acknowledgment as Sanji holds up the sheet.]

Let's see . . . How about one or two?

[warhawks]

a. nightmare time

[ In the early hours of Monday morning, Asa jerks awake with a loud, panicked-sounding gasp.

After looking around to make sure she hasn't woken anyone else up (not that she can really tell in the dark), she steps out of bed as quietly as she can and heads for the kitchen to grab a glass of water. She'll be in there for a while, just... staring into space, so feel free to run into her even without having been woken up, or if you're one of the exiled freaks. You know who you are. ]

b. scavenger time

[ She's already regretting her promise to be more of a team player this week, but they definitely need that hint. So here she is, staring down at her scavenger hunt sheet with an expression of disgust — then switching into Focus Mode. The first person she sees is getting accosted without so much as a hello. ]

Can we do this without making it weird? [ Says the girl who makes everything weird. ]

[hgeegh]

[And no spiders, right?

Sanji's head snaps toward Wednesday at her sudden appearance. He perks up. Oh, yes, she looks very horrifying.]

Welcome back, Wednesday! How's the honeymoon suite?

[singurarity]

I. SCAVENGER HUNT

[ Obligatory prompt-filling--and Ritsuka will even help you, grimacing lightly at her sheet before waving it at you. ]

Well, we could use all the help we can get. What can I do for you?

II. BATH TIME

[ You can probably do scavenger things with her too, but for now, it's just Ritsuka with a little basin by the pool, filled with soapy water.

And a deeply unhappy creature she's working on scrubbing. ]

Try to hang in there, Fou. We're almost d--whoa!

[ The Creature is making a break for freedom, incoming!! ]

[ohwoe]

[Yes, isn't she frightening.

(But no, no spiders. This time.)]

Satisfactory. [it's fancy af] But I can't sit around indulging when there's a game still to be played. Ryuji is around, too, willing to help.

[So. Here she is!]

[hgeegh]

Sanji and Will—something with cooking, please! Thank yooou.

[showhost]

cooking mama time

[inparfait]

Want a hug? Want to hear something I'm proud of? I'll let you carry me!

[ if he sounds like he's just skipping around he is, because almost none of these tasks he feels an adversity to. ]

[inparfait]

will + minami rng~

[showhost]
