Who: Naughty little fishes
Where: Game Tower
When: Day 527


[So there you are, minding your own business on a completely normal day.]

[Then you blink —



[— and find yourself, and many other idols, in an unfamiliar room.]

[The room is large and round and made of glass, like a globe. ...No, like a fish bowl.]

[On the other side of the glass walls, you can see indistinct shapes moving around, but the glass distorts the light so much that anything farther than arm’s length is just vague smears of colors and shadow blending with your own reflection. But something is there. Possibly a lot of somethings. ]

[Two formless shapes approach the glass, and as they do, their images resolve into the shapes of a pair of twins, one grinning while the other pointedly looks away from his brother. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the one who actually looks cheerful about being here is the first to speak up:]

Guess what~? You’ve been chosen to play in our very first game. Isn’t that exciting?

[He throws his arms out theatrically.]

Especially after soooo many boring games. The audience is looking for excitement and thrills here! Why not take the chance to really cement yourself as the fan favorite while you have the chance? Heck, it might even fix your little... “problem.”

[There’s a beat of silence, and he moves to elbow his brother who shoots him a “hey what the hell?” look before reluctantly facing the gathered idols.]

...Make sure you protect yourselves. Otherwise...

[He just lets the thought trail off before looking away again. His brother leans on him, resting an elbow on his shoulder as though waiting for him to continue before finally giving up and shaking his head with a sigh.]

You heard him! Give this game all you’ve got - got it?

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.]

Who: You!
Where: Gametower > Rest of Imeeji
When: Day 512, morning

[You are yoinked to the game tower as if by a string attached to your hand. When you arrive, it's just the Gametower's normal lobby, except that every surface is covered in smooth colorful strings--lines spreading neatly everywhere and leading off in every direction, including back outside or up into the upper floors.

As characters wander around trying to figure out what's going on, they'll start to notice that there are colorful strings attached to them as well--mainly to their fingers, but maybe their arms, maybe their throats, maybe other places...?? These threads, the same as the strings around the lobby, float around them like gossamer, but can't be cut, and they glint and brighten when someone focuses on them, showing their color... Where does the other end go? If they try to follow them, they'll discover some of these are attached to someone else here, and some just fade off into the distance. Sometimes, when they find a person, the connecting thread will suddenly shorten no matter the color, tying the two body parts--and the two people--together, though it will probably slacken after a while as well.

In the middle of the lobby is a large touchscreen kiosk that reads:]

COLOR:⬜
MEANING:|________________

[If they go up to the screen they'll find they can use a color picker to put in the hex code for the color, and are free to write or dictate whatever meaning they think a color means. The kiosk also displays a couple color information lists that're empty at first but quickly starts filling up. If they check their phones, it'll also have this color/meaning form and a copy of the color lists displayed in the game rules app.]

[...Is that the game? For the moment, there doesn't seem to be anything else to it besides try to figure out who you've been tied to and what that means. Ominous...?]

Who: You!!
Where: Game Tower
When: Day 494, noon

[ As ☆ZRAEL gets to the center square, the game ends, all squares disappearing—even the chalk. The doors open for you to leave, but your status effects . . .

. . . oh, they're not going away. Guess you'll just have to live with those! And the glitter. Honestly, good luck for the second one more. ]
