imeeji_frontstage | STRINGS GAME SCRAMBLE

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.

SEE SUGGESTED ACTIVITIES

[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.]

I feel like I love you. So no, not so different.

-- Maybe a bit more tendency to tease.

I did notice that part - but I feel as though I'm reacting to it as I usually would, at least?

[With embarrassment, but fondness.]

I also have kind of an intense need to stay at your side, which I'm hoping isn't a problem.

Not at all. I'm happy to stay with you as long as you like.

That will be a very long time. I'm afraid your unit might complain.

[ She doesn't say that right now the thought of him with anyone else makes her nuts, because she hears how it would sound, but it's true. Throwing her into the deep end with the insecurity/jealousy stuff! ]

They can take their complaints up with me and I will hear them with all the sympathy they are worth, which is very little.

You're terribly sweet.

[ She puts her tea down and curls up with her head in his lap. It's a shipping game, so! ]

And terribly comfortable.

Is that so?

[Strokes her hair gently.]

Feel free to relax as long as you wish, then.

That sounds nice. Thank you.

[ Glancing up with one eye open ] Although I haven't forgotten about the treats. I was waiting for you to finish your tea is all.

[What a coincidence, he happens to be done with his tea Right Now.

Doctor unwraps a chocolate and places it on her tongue, lingering a little before he pulls his fingers away.]

[ What prompt service! She nuzzles his hand before he can pull away and smiles up at him while she chews. ]

You'd give me almost anything, wouldn't you? [ Spoken with sheer wonder and appreciation. Some things would be a bridge too far surely, but in her right mind those are things she'd never ask for. ]

I would give you the moon and stars if only I could.

[Petting her hair again.]

And what would I give you in return, hm? [ She considers this for a moment. ]

Your wings and horns back, for starters. Then a pleasant, comfortable space for reading and drinking tea and occasional naps.

A pile of blankets and pillows, and a stash of sweets?

A stash of sweets implies that I didn't get to them first. Maybe they should automatically replenish. Bottomless sweets.

Infinite sweets and infinite tea. I do like the sound of that.

We'll have very little reason to want to leave.

-- Venti mentioned before that he can make a pocket dimension for me while I'm sleeping. I wonder if it could be a nice spot for you to read. You'd be able to hear my heartbeat.

[ Yes she knows he wants to use his wish to get rid of her hibernation but she's not counting any chickens. ]

Oh, I would like that very much. If I read to you, would it soothe your sleep?

[He knows she won't really be able to hear him, but still.]

I'm sure it would. [ The idea of him being there and hearing his voice is soothing, even if she couldn't really perceive it. ] Maybe if you read those romance novels you like my pulse would speed up.

I do like the thought of giving you some pleasant dreams.

Yours will be the last face I see, if there's any luck. [ She absolutely will make sure of it. ] I'll have pleasant dreams regardless.

It never hurts to make sure. But I'm glad to be of service either way.

[ She just now remembers that she made him promise not to spend his life mourning her, and now she's suggested that he set up a reading nook outside her chrysalis. Blood threads, what are you gonna do? ]

I'll take whatever services are on offer.

[It's fine? He can leave and come back probably.]

Anything you ask for.

Of all the dangerous things to say to me. You know I can't get enough of you.
