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.]

[ Over the arm of a chair goes the yukata and she makes a halfhearted attempt to pin up her hair -- which is just long enough to maybe get wet if she sinks in enough -- before she gives up. It's not like there's anyone else here to get pissy if the very ends of her hair touch the water. ]

[ She lights up when she sees him approaching and waves him over. ]

[numberedays]

[Walking over to her!]

All ready?

[sangreine]

Ready!

[ Reaching for his hand, and if he'll let her take it she gives him a tug toward the water. Demanding as ever. ]

[numberedays]

[He doesn't seem to mind, allowing himself to be tugged along as usual.]

[sangreine]

[ Into the spring, then! No jumping or splashing on her part but let it be known that you're getting off light, mister. ]

I just realized, something was supposed to change for the second half of the game. I won't feel very different, do you?

[ Grinning away so she's not especially bothered either way. ]

[numberedays]

Well...

[How to answer that... actually, what if he simply doesn't, just sinking slowly into the warmth of the onsen.]

[sangreine]

[ What if she's not forgetting that question? Too curious what he'll say, sorry! But at least she slides over against his side and rests her head on his shoulder, is that fair compensation? ]

Well? Do you feel any different?

[numberedays]

[Even he can't help the slight flush to his cheeks.]

...A little, yes.

[sangreine]

Are you going to tell me what's different, or do I have to coax it out of you?

[numberedays]

If I think on it too much, we may need to leave the onsen.

[sangreine]

[ Yeah she's not following that train of thought at all. What did he, get a shyness coloring? But fine, if he says so. ]

We just got here, so we can't have that. I'll pester you about it later.

It's your job to decide how we're going to spend the time, then. Just don't say "sitting quietly", I don't have that setting.

[numberedays]

What are my options?

[sangreine]

[ She taps her chin to consider ]

Seems to me you can bring up something to talk about, or you could kiss me.
