❤ Week 4 Mingle

Welcome to your final week, lovebirds(???)!

The weather is perfect, nothing funky going on this week. The house might feel a little more spacious with less people in it after last week, but. It's fine. Things are slowly coming to a close, after all.

But not before two new rooms have appeared in the house. One room leads into a very impressive home movie theater, complete with popcorn maker and concession stand for the true moviegoer experience. A variety of movies will always be playing, from old westerns, black-and-white classics, Oscar nominations, and animated flicks. Also romcoms. Duh.

For those who wish to be a bit more active, the other new room is a little colder because-- it's an ice-skating rink. There are skates in everyone's size and a few padded benches by a vending machine that will dispense hot drinks if you need to warm up.

Anything having to do with being able to write remains Sir Not Appearing In This Show.

Enjoy!!!

Truth Booth Reactions

[starswink]

[Well, he's watching intently this time, since he wants to know what will happen. But what's with these vibes?]

Jeritza! Don't make it weird!

[starswink]

[Oh wait. Rufus is okay with it.]

...Never mind? [are they going to see something vaguely enviable happen!!]

[unrecompensed]

Why are they like this?

[gilden]

Why are you surprised Jeritza is like this? He's been this way the whole time. [ He is not addressing Rufus for obvious reasons. ]

[unrecompensed]

Vacation... has been nice...

I almost forgot how unusual some people are here...

[gilden]

That's why we're still here, ain't it?

[unrecompensed]

Because you're unusual?

[She thinks about that for a moment before she shakes her head.]

Nah. I think it's only natural for it to take more than a couple of weeks to figure out some arbitrary perfect match.

Besides... you found someone, didn't you? Regardless of what the show thinks.

[gilden]

...Yeah? Yeah. [ Maybe it's better Rufus isn't allowed to hear this. ]

Everyone who's in the suite is good at dates or romance or however you wanna call it.

[unrecompensed]

[ehhhhh sounds fake.]

I think... everyone who's there just got lucky. That's all.

[gilden]

Hmm, sure. All that matters is we figure out the rest of the pairs anyway.

[starswink]

He's not the one that surprised me...

[Just the general vibe between the two of them. But also, he didn't know Rufus was into these sorts of hobbies, so that was why he said what he did at first.]

[gilden]

Uh-huh. [ Ash knows, or at least knows enough, that this isn't surprising. But that's all the answer Yoosung is going to get out of him cause he is doing his Best. ]

[starswink]

I mean, they're getting along.

[Yoosung is not doing his Best.]

[gilden]

I can see that.

[starswink]

[Looks like he struck a nerve. Yoosung starts to back off.]

Sorry.

[But now Rufus is outright making innuendos about the situation so he is just kind of gaping at that!!]

What the hell?!

1/2

[gilden]

[ He's ignoring all of that, sorry Yoosung. But eventually when the match is confirmed— ]

...that settles that.

[gilden]

Even Ridis could figure this out now, so we've got it.

[ He says, with a smile. ]

[starswink]

There's probably a million reasons for that, but... right now it looks like he is what Jeritza asked for.

[That could potentially change their view of how these matches work again.]

[unrecompensed]

[She closes her dang eyes.]

At this point... I hope they're a match just so we can take Jeritza out of the running. He's... Complicated.

[Besides, Rufus already likes someone, right?]

[starswink]

Yeah... we were getting along, but he's still hard to keep up with.

[Don't remind him.]

You could say that about anyone. But it's important to confirm them, cause of what Dia said.

[That Rufus and Ash's partners were matched together. Yoosung sounds tired, uncertain.]

[unrecompensed]

[She glances over at him, expression quietly concerned.]

... Yeah.

You hanging in there okay?

1/2

[starswink]

Hehe. [One of Yoosung's fingers fidgets with the hair that falls down by his ears. He's still watching the screen, smiling faintly for a moment, before he eventually caves and sighs. He finally gets to vent to Aoko, he should take that opportunity while she's here.]

Honestly, it's been super stressful for me. Like, every time I see one of these perfect matches, I really think about how they could actually work. And the house has been so quiet without all of you, and I've had a lot of time to think by myself...

[starswink]

- Jesus, is he going to break his arm?!

[It's kind of hard to have a Moment in these circumstances!!]

[unrecompensed]

[Oh, poor Yoosung. Aoko listens sympathetically, nodding a little--

And then.

There's that.]

Oh my god. They have no sense of romance at all.

[starswink]

Even I'm not on that level-

[FF7 victory fanfares from the screen, wow.]

But it's them!
