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. ♥

Oz also though that him and Zhong Li were not in conflict.

[ which uroko takes as oz speak for that the match is about as likely as a match between oz and someone else can be. ]

In that case...our path is relatively straightforward, though it relies on the assumption of Martha.

[ sorry he's. just saying this to someone besides manuela because yolo. ]

[helmswoman]

..........

[ Squints. ]

Mar... tha?

[cosmoid]

[ oh right. he only explained this to manuela before.

a breath and then a sigh. ]

Martin Brenner and Mithra's named combined. The easiest combination there is Martha.

[helmswoman]

[ Help, she may as well have forgotten that Brenner's first name was Martin. ]

Ah. Like those portmanteaus that the young people are so set on. I see...

[cosmoid]

Yes.

[ thank you for getting him yukong??? ]

[helmswoman]

[ ...

This is not relevant. But also, she's kind of curious. ]

Do you have them thought out for other matches as well?

[alcoheal]

See, other people think it's weird, too.

[cosmoid]

Perhaps.

[ uroko and his only friend yukong. ]

[mechanideptus]

What a strange way to refer to a relationship.

Is this done with all such pairings?

[cosmoid]

Hmm? No. But we have discussed their pairing quite often.

[ he truly is lazy.

unless she means like in general in which case the answer is yes but his people haven't quite caught onto that trend yet. ]

[mechanideptus]

So you came up with an abbreviation and expected us to read your mind.

[ bruh. ]

[cosmoid]

No, I had spoken to Manuela about it before. With the amount of meetings we've had...

[ he just forgot y'all were not there at the time. ]

[hearthwarming]

[ . . . . . . ]

Wait... Who's Martha?

[cosmoid]

[ gestures above.

i have no idea where he was flopped before this but he's moving closer to her regardless. ]

It's faster than saying both their names.

[hearthwarming]

Oh... You lazy scale. [ affectionate ] Wouldn't it be more like 'Marthra' if you were combining them...?

[ that doesn't quite roll off the tongue huh... ]

Never mind. I see why you went with Martha.

[cosmoid]

Human names are often too long. [ this might be one of the reasons he first names everyone in shioshishio tbh. thinking of them and her...ah. ]

Oriphi, does your name have a meaning?

[hearthwarming]

Hmm...? To be honest, if it does, then... I wouldn't know it... I'd never thought about finding out, before!

[cosmoid]

If you find out, I want to know. [ he leans a little closer, not quite whispering but enough that he's probably not being entirely in everyone's salad. ]

Until then, I'll have no choice but to assume it means beautiful.

[hnl]

[wat]

“Martha?”

[cosmoid]

[ a lazy gesture. ]

Would you prefer Minner?

[hnl]

[H-help]

No. Just call us “Brenner and Mithra”, like everyone else.

[ringsmaster]

No, no. He's onto something. I like it.

[cosmoid]

The more who use it, the more it will catch on.

[ that's how trends work.

and tbh he doesn't have anything against brenner (or mithra!) but now he's likely to just stick to it because he is a cat sometimes. ]

[hnl]

[This isn’t the most important thing right now, but-]

Then here’s an easy solution: don’t use it.
