STRINGS GAME SCRAMBLE

[idolpro]

Who: All the kittens tangled in strings
Where: Imeeji
When: Day 512, late afternoon

[As everyone is finally starting to get their bearings with the strings and what they mean, and maybe learning a little about what they do, the kiosk and their phones will sound with a new alert.]

Thank you to all of our fans for participating in Imeeji's
🎉 4th Season Shipping Contest 🎉
All nominated ships and ship dynamics are now being processed. With the help of your idols we will be determining the winning ships.

---

[The game rules app on each person's phone reads:]

- Idols have been assigned relationship dynamics determined by their fans.
- Idols are encouraged to explore and display the dynamics of these relationships.
- Idols may also attempt to subvert the relationship to drive engagement.
- Winners will be determined by viewing numbers and fan engagement.
- Winners will have the option to switch relationships back to their original settings.
- The rest will be left on the setting they are on at the conclusion of the game, please develop your relationship as you like organically from there.

[With a twang, those who are participating in the game will find that their strings have been scrambled. It may not be all of them, but most of the familiar ones suddenly have new colors, and there may even be entirely new strings to complete strangers--not every ship makes sense! Time to work out these new relationships and show people what that's all about to have a shot at fixing it.]

[(The dice said Blood and Green which is pretty funny, but I just rolled for the sake of having somewhere to start so please feel free to arbitrarily decide on either or both ends of the strings based on ur preferences)
Nyx doesn't seem to have quite processed what's going on, but to be fair when is he ever doing anything but smiling in public ANYWAY.]

They're always finding new ways to motivate us, it seems.

[at_heart]

[ (omg... well, I would love to see what Blood looks like on Nyx. I can do Green for Lupine as a lulz response OR I can give Nyx a complementary Royal Blue/Pine/Seafoam for max protecc?)

Yeah, the new strings haven't hit yet, but Lupine is quick to fall into step beside Nyx in the meantime. ]

'Play our game or all of your relationships are permanently altered' is new, but I guess it's not so different from a Heart Game...

[ furi: and I hate Heart Games ]

[drownout]

[(Both are funny so go with your heart ((or a flipped coin))!)]

Well, after they hurt us so much, they need to get a little more creative with their threats or else we won't act scared enough to amuse them... I suppose?

[Heart Games Are Terrifying, thinks Nyx, whose heart game is being written in another tab Right Now.]

[at_heart]

[ (Flipped! Green was heads, and I got tails, so—) ]

It definitely says something that I'm not even sure which game you mean by that.

[ h a h a h a also oooh can't wait ]

[drownout]

I meant in general, since I can't really think of any one instance either. ...Nothing of that sort has been done to you today, though, right?

[at_heart]

[ Tiniest headtilt, but yep the Strings sure are Happening now. ]

Nah, Monster Bingo was a good time, and that water game was...

[ ...weird to remember right now, since they were hostages together and... ]

—Well. We came through it okay, even if that whole vertigo thing was annoying.

[drownout]

Good, then. It was annoying, wasn't it? I'm not sure what the point of making it so that we couldn't appear on camera for days was.

[at_heart]

Right? I missed fanmail because most of my unit was stuck horizontal. Who's idea of entertainment is that? They didn't even get to see us suffering.

[drownout]

I suppose there's no use in trying to figure out their tastes in senseless violence. Well, at least it's quiet for now.

[at_heart]

Heh. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth, they say.

[ Or not-horse. Whatever they are back home, it's not horses. ]

[drownout]

...since they're not mangling us right now, were you planning on playing along? I'll join you, if so.

[at_heart]

—Yeah, I was. Heh. This is the sort of game I usually go hard in. And the activities we're supposed to be doing aren't so bad.

[ ........................admittedly who knows what activity would be most appropriate for Blood from Nyx, but Lupine's down for all the fluffy stuff. ]

[drownout]

[The answer is Anything so long as Lupine doesn't try to wander off mid-way,]

Then allow me to help. Ah... I suppose I'm the one who will need help reading off these activities we're supposed to do, though.

[at_heart]

Oh, yeah, of course.

[ FORTUNATELY no intention of that anytime soon. He pulls up the list on his phone. ]

There's run-or-participate in a live together, confront a fear together, watch a memory together, cook together, shop together...

[ Lipquirk. For completeness's sake: ]

And, like, technically going on a date or picking a fight.

[drownout]

Ahaha... memories or shopping seem like they'd be easy enough, though I'm not sure what we would possibly do for any of the others.

[at_heart]

I can definitely cook, and picking out what we make would count as helping in my book.

[ Still doesn't really know how much of sIV just doesn't eat. ]

But I'm happy to do anything. Some of my memories have been kind of downers, though.
