WEEK FOUR MINGLE
ᯓ⭐ WEEK FOUR MINGLE
Heya, lovebirds! You're entering the final week and things sure are... great.
Right?
Well, whether you're feeling great or not, you're going to find yourself looking your best in formal wear this week! Suits, gorgeous dresses, fabulously outlandish outfits, you name it, you're stuck in it. No sweatpants or lab coats for anyone this week. We have standards.
And we also believe in telling the truth, one way or another!
That's right, if you're asked a question, any question at all, no matter how innocent or dire, you are compelled to speak your most truthful answer. It could be who you think is the hottest in the castle. It could be your opinion on orange juice. Whatever it is, there is no longer a brain-to-mouth filter in place!
And maybe you'll figure that out and all decide to be merciful, but Riri will be popping up every now and then. And Riri? Riri will not be merciful.
Except for one thing, and that's a note in the main room that states simply: You all suck at this, so this week, our good ol' lesbian duo can now speak normally. You're welcome. ♥

There are simply too many variables, given that some matches, like Mithra and Brenner, seem quite comical.
I do believe they are our single match, for what it is worth. But that leads us down a road in which we still have so many unknowns.
... After the display earlier, I'm inclined to believe our other match was Phoenix and Xianyun. But if that is the case, then yours must be Manuela, Lucifer or Maruki, and I could see any of those possibilities being true.
no subject
Right... I don't have a problem with the assumption that Mithra and Brenner [ martha ] are a match, and same with Phoenix and Xianyun, though in both cases I'm not sure what we can learn from them about how the rest of the matches are arranged.
[ She knows and is well-aware that Mithra has given his reasons, but... she doesn't feel so convinced, yet at the same time she's a bit tired of asking for explanations. They all are, probably. ]
But... I can see myself with any of those possibilities, too, since we don't have much to go on. Manuela is gorgeous and talented, and has such a nurturing and caring personality that doesn't take away from her confidence, and I admire that about her. She deserves a lot more care and affection than she's been given here, I think, but I don't know if she'd necessarily appreciate it coming from me.
[ the bi awakening slipping from our grasps... ]
Lucifer and I both care very deeply about our daughters, even though we've each... wronged them, or stifled them in a way out of our own fears and desire to protect them from harm. He's sweet and earnest and tries his very best. And a more surface-level, we're both... you know, devils, in a way, and both prone to whimsy.
[ she doesn't feel very whimsical rn tho. She misses her powers so much... ]
And to be honest, I... don't take issue, with what Maruki said he tried to do. Maybe it's because I've seen the sorts of things that people are capable of when they're driven to desperation, but most importantly we all know it didn't work. Still, he was open and made himself vulnerable by telling everyone, and he's determined to make good on a second chance. He has my respect and admiration for that.
[ so... yippee, she's kind of being a problem bc she loves everyone so much. ]

Hello.

What's on your mind?

All right. Who is on your mind?
no subject
Rutile and Mitile are always on my mind . . . but I was thinking about Manuela just now.

Really...
[ Okay, she's just going to plop herself down next to him wherever he's sitting. Her tail curls around herself, the tip of it resting in her lap. ]
Looking after her? How so? I've been a bit worried about her, too. What if we worked together?
no subject
Yes. I give her various things to cheer her up, and I tell her when she's thinking too hard about other people. I don't mind working together, but she always makes these faces at me.

You could try... being a little warmer. Softer.

[ ahem. ]
Do you do all of these things for Manuela because you care about her...?
no subject
[Short and simple. That's how it is.]

If we're assuming that the showrunners paired us off based on more obvious traits, then putting you and Lucifer together might make sense. Of course, that does bring up the issue of long-life versus short-life species...
[ A pause, and then she can't help but ask: ] Do you know what your lifespan will be, Oriphi?
no subject

[ Yukong blinks, not at all hiding her surprise. ]
That's longer than I was expecting. Perhaps you and Lucifer would work as a match, then.
Uroko seems set on the fact that you are not a match by the show's standards, and that he is mostly likely paired with Manuela. What do you make of that?
no subject
Ahaha... druidic magic, remember?
[ Her kind doesn't normally live that long, but... In any case, she nods at what Yukong says following. ]
I think they both have a similarly playful and relaxed sort of aura to them, even though they're both diligent in their own ways, too. I think... that probably counts more towards the show's standards. [ a beat. ] Not that we really know that much about what those standards are...
no subject
She doesn't plan to tell any of them about this. ]
We don't, no. We're simply guessing. But Manuela has been clear from the start about how she wants a straight-forward man who knows what he wants and pursues her, and Uroko seems to have those qualities. Nonetheless, I know you and he have found a connection between you as well.
[ Despite that... odd start. ]
no subject
Mm, we have, but I've always known going in that "heart matches" might not line up with "perfect matches." The same thing happened with Juniper's group.
[ She chuckles fondly. The young ones were given quite generous hints, too... It seems Riri is a little stricter in that regard, but perhaps they all could have tried harder in some ways. In any case, here they all are. ]
But... Yes. I would say that he fits that description a bit, haha...
