WEEK ZERO: MINGLE

WEEK ZERO

OCCUPANCY: 36

For those of you counting along, you'll find that it's been three days since you've arrived at Master Blue's mansion. On this lovely Monday morning, the weak winter sun shines in through the spotless windows. The curtains in the ballroom have been drawn closed and cannot be moved away from the back wall during the daylight hours. The scent of a hot and delicious breakfast wafts from the direction of the dining hall at 7am, and small creaks and groans in the house urge you to awaken.

Perhaps you're a late riser though. No matter! There's still plenty of food you can make for yourself and ways for you to amuse yourself. Though the decor's been taken down, leftover Valentine's candy remains abundant, and a chilly breeze drifts through the halls. Best of all, all damage inflicted on the house has been repaired. In addition, a new placard has been mounted in the entryway.

As you carry on with your day in the mansion and explore the rooms provided, you may come to find that starting today it will appear as though you've all lost the use of one of your senses. Your vision may have grown dim, or maybe you really can't smell the enticing treats in the dining hall after all. How unfortunate.

Then again, something doesn't seem quite right. Walking through the halls, nothing seems terribly out of place. However, turning the corner or entering a room you will find someone who looks a little too much like yourself behaving in a fairly inappropriate manner. You would never read something so lewd. Who would ever think that you would wear something so pink? These mannerisms may seem innocent to others, but you can't help but disapprove.

Too bad no one else can see them.

Come Monday at noon, you will also find a new surprise. The wooden box with your name on it can now be opened, and a rustling crackle of static can be heard from overhead. Try as you might, you won't be able to find the speakers but this message will play loud and clear for all.

So you remember the order you threw shit together in the first place.

[ Simples. ]

They're in tonnes of recipes, and they're used to bind stuff together. You've never had someone tell you the importance of eating eggs for protein?

[allfornone]

[This recipe shit still doesn't sound right to him but he doesn't quite know enough of the details to protest, so he's just going to let it go for now.]

Of course I know you should eat eggs for protein.

But a lot of those types of recommendations are just for eggs by themselves, or raw eggs, I'm pretty sure. I think there is less binding in those cases?

If you make a hamburger without cracking an egg in there then it's gonna fall apart pretty easily.

[ speaking of, he's gonna flip flippy one of the burgers. ]

[allfornone]

Ahaha... I forgot.

[It's debatable how much he knew about making burgers in the first place, judging by the fascinated way he's watching the burger flipping. It's like putting a seal in front of a particularly colorful beach ball.

But fluffier.]

But I thought we were talking about things like protein shakes and other fitness tips. Hamburgers are definitely a little different.

...

[ Huh. ]

Who eats a protein shake when you could cook proper food? [ Not Ash. Master of "is it a burger, make it a burger". ]

Burgers or not though, you can do a bunch of other stuff with eggs. Scramble it, fry it, mix it into rice. Take your pick.
