WEEK ONE

WEEK ONE
26 Villagers


After the news from the town hall, Puffin Town might not seem as tranquil as before—if it ever did. But the sun dawns, and the rooster crows on a new week, that seems peaceful enough, for now. There's farming to be done for those who don't want to subsist off the vast canned food selection at Joja Mart, or you could take up your hand fishing or even venturing into the mines.

If you want to lay around on the grass taking count of the shapes in the clouds no one will stop you, an eager duck might even stop by to give you a pillow; but the cost of the harvest looms overhead, even if you choose not to see it.

And so too does: confetti? Monday, at precisely noon, everyone will find themselves showered with confetti from seemingly nowhere. The culprit largely seems to be the ducks, but if you're somewhere closed off like bathroom, there's no obvious instigator in sight. Though if you squint real hard, you might see the wisps of something? It's hard to see through all the colorful paper, though. Regardless, you'll soon find yourself accosted by a duck with a flyer, printed and worn:

!
Festival!

The Colors You Want to See Festival!
Do you find the walls of your cottage drab? Do you want to add a special touch to make your home YOURS? Stop by the general store this week and pick up some art supplies to decorate your life! NOTE: Puffin town does not take responsibility for any damage incurred during the decorating process. Participation will be rewarded with an item from the community stockpile! Please see the event organizer in the community center to submit your polaroid photograph of your entry. (Polaroids are available at the general store.)
Maybe calling it a festival is a stretch, but it's certainly a group activity nonetheless. And hey, there's even prizes! The duck, ever eager, presses another paper into your hand, though this one is handwritten, in a cursive elegant hand.

!
Gift Giving

Someone told me that receiving a gift is a reward in itself. But if you share with others, you deserve something tangible, don't you? Try it, you might be surprised at what you receive.
(( OOC: Murder proposals are due by Tuesday at 4 PM EST / 1 PM PST, for the current week's murder, but feel free to submit for later weeks if you like!))



sorathvau: (There's a club where you'd like to go)

Video games, huh…

[Is that what the kids are into these days…]

And other monsters?
aurevoirx2: (I wonder what I'll find)

Hmm, I don't have one at home so I don't know it very well. [ He's only watched Hinata play or played co-op with him. ] But, oh, I think Beelzebub-san is a boss in a lot of games? [ Well, Beelzebub-san but not Beelzebub-san, you know what he's getting at. ]
sorathvau: (Nothing sharper than a serpent's tooth)

A boss? What do you mean?

[He's so unfamiliar help.]
aurevoirx2: (because the meaning)

[personal profile] aurevoirx2 2024-03-06 04:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[ This is like the partially blind leading the blind help. ]

It's like, a special fight where the monster or enemy is harder, I think.

[He thinks about it.]

Fitting. I’m a tough opponent.
aurevoirx2: (with everyone)

[personal profile] aurevoirx2 2024-03-06 06:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He laughs. ] I'm glad you enjoy it. I wouldn't know how to feel if I was an enemy in a game. Or even as anything, I guess. [ Recognition is a strange thing... ]
sorathvau: (Nothing sharper than a serpent's tooth)

[personal profile] sorathvau 2024-03-06 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[It just comes with the territory. Besides, Beelzebub is kind of used to being reviled. Being a boss enemy is nothing.]

What do people usually think of you?
aurevoirx2: (but our hearts are connected)

[personal profile] aurevoirx2 2024-03-06 06:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah... [ He blushes in embarrassment. ] The other people in my art club say I'm talented, but I don't really know about that. I think it's just because I try to spend more time on it than most?

That’s high praise. You shouldn’t dismiss it so easily.
aurevoirx2: (I'll remember about you)

[personal profile] aurevoirx2 2024-03-06 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
No, I appreciate it for sure. I'm just not sure how to... receive it, I guess?
sorathvau: (and try to make nice)

[personal profile] sorathvau 2024-03-06 07:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[Hmm…well he doesn’t have any advice on that, actually. When has anyone ever complimented him?]

…I’m sure it will come to you, if you’re open to it.
aurevoirx2: (goodbye)

[personal profile] aurevoirx2 2024-03-06 07:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmm, I'll try to keep it in mind then. [ Mostly he just sits there and smiles anyway, not sure what to say. He doesn't want to reject people's feelings, after all. His inadequate feelings aren't on others. ]
