CATFISH: WEI WUXIAN

[fullthottle]

CATFISH On Monday afternoon, Wei Wuxian's clamshell will ping! from wherever he has it. Should he pick it up to see what all the fuss is about, he will realize that his RULEBOOK app has updated to version 2.0. Opening the app will reveal that there has been an addendum to the rules... but one that seems meant exclusively for him. No other survivor will be able to see these additions. They read as such: 1. Each week, you will be given A TASK by your guides. 2. The specifics of this task will VARY FROM WEEK TO WEEK, and there's no guarantee that any two tasks will be the same. 3. You MUST COMPLETE THIS TASK BEFORE THE DAY OF THE TRIAL, regardless of what it entails. 4. You may PRIVATELY CONFIRM YOUR ROLE if asked, but you may not OFFER THE INFORMATION FREELY to others. A notification will arrive the moment he has finished reading through the update. Its contents are no less confusing. GOOD 🌞 MORNING, CATFISH! 🐟 💋 YOU'RE ON THE 🎣 HOOK TO SEA 🌊 🏖️ AND BE SEEN! 👀 👀 👀 BUT DON'T WORRY 😉😚 YOU WON'T BE A 🐠 FISH OUT OF WATER FOR 2️⃣ LONG 💦💧💧 TAKE A 🔥HOT🔥 PIC 📷 WITH YOUR BEST POUT 💋💋 BC WE'LL SEE U REEL 🎣 SOON ♥️👀♥️ Other things that are weird? The fact that the moment he opens a door and walk through it, he will find himself falling face first an entirely new location. Particularly, one that doesn't seem to fit into any part of the hotel, and absolutely not one that they meant to go through. As he regains his bearings and looks at his surroundings, he'll realize that the door he walked through is no longer there. It seems like he has only one choice, and that's to walk forward until he reaches his destination. It is there that he will find a familiar face...

WEEK FOUR

[fullthottle]

[The place Wei Wuxian will find himself in is an unfortunately decrepit looking community center. The inside is bare-bones and a bit depressing, but there's plenty of room to roam around.]

TALK TO NATHAN

[notaquaman]

[Who is currently trying to fish a bag of miniature cookies out of a vending machine. So he's, like, on the floor, with his arm wedged up the slot it's fine.]

Hello, stranger.

[He grunts in his efforts, reaching...!]

Might as well go talk to the other guy, instead.

[givethemhell]

[WELL HE'S. HE'S HERE, HE GUESSES. He's not a fan of any of this, but also unsurprisingly, he doesn't seem that ruffled. His insane flexibility doesn't just extend to his increasingly fuckin wild adventures in the sheets... i hate that i typed that

ANYWAY.]

Hello, hello! Good to see you're still in one lovely piece. [He'll just cheerfully clap a hand over Nathan's shoulder! The one not attached to the arm he's shoved into the vending machine.]

...You sure you don't need a hand here, first?

[Haha, hand puns.]

[notaquaman]

[It's funny because of all the dismemberment.]

Nah, I'll work it outta the bitch. She likes it.

TALK TO CHUUYA

[doublesmall]

[Chuuya, for his part, rolls his eyes at Nathan's comment-- but he definitely looks pleased to see Wei Wuxian, hello there.]

You're working with both of us now, not just me-- so keep that in mind. If you have questions, we'll give you the answers we can.

[givethemhell]

[After greeting the vending machine goblin he's RAISING A HAND CHEERFULLY HELLO. This was not the Monday afternoon he was expecting, but it's the Monday afternoon he... got.]

Mm, will do! [A little nod! And then a little laugh, too.] Looks like I'm not fortunate enough to dodge the extra trouble in the end, hm? Well! What's the first task, then? And to what end are these things being accomplished?

[He's been told some people have potentially Detrimental To The Group roles and he's like. 5% concerned.]

[doublesmall]

As far as 'to what end'... you're more or less a right hand for us. There are things we can't really step in and do, so we've got you to do it instead. We'll give you objectives, and you'll get something for your trouble if you're successful.

[He hums thoughtfully, there.]

This week, we need you to get out there and get people to share information around more than they have been. Get five of them to tell someone something they've learned here that the other person doesn't know-- and if they both share with each other, that's going to count twice.

You're a social enough guy-- I don't think you're going to have problems.

TASK

[fullthottle]

[After talking to Chuuya and Nathan, Wei Wuxian will receive the following notification on his clamshell:]

Convince five people to share information they have learned here with a person who does not have that information.

[Comment here with your list of 5 no later than 11:59 PM EST on Friday for Wei Wuxian's reward! Two people sharing with each other will count for two, not as just one share.]

[givethemhell]

Higekiri > Tamamo: Asking Higekiri to tell Tamamo that Beck gave her the gift
Junpei > Nikkari: Asking Junpei to tell Nikkari about Dimitri & Edelgard's history & trying to get Nikkari to REVEAL HIS FOOL SELF
Kagachi > Maou: Asking Kagachi to tell Maou about the hydra demons/roles, the Island Of The Dead etc
Higekiri > Zero: Asking Higekiri to mention deadland & that there's some Revival Bullshit going on

REWARD

[fullthottle]

[On Thursday morning, WWX will wake up to see 1 TOKEN has been added to his Finansex balance.

Additionally, he will find a disc (inside a disc sleeve) in his hand. The following words are written on the disc itself in black sharpie:]

sharing is caring & caring leads to escape

[He will not recognize the handwriting.

Using the disc in the movie theater will reveal this short film.]

WEEK FIVE

[fullthottle]

[It's the office again today! He's seen it enough times, I'm not linking pics.]

TASK

[fullthottle]

[After their meeting, WWX will get a reminder on his clamshell of his task:]

Help retrieve one of the remaining ritual items.

[assuming he doesn't mcdie, comment here once it's done!]

[givethemhell]

presumably the blue jar thingy they got tuesday night/wednesday morning...

[fullthottle]

[On Wednesday night, Wei Wuxian will find a strange token in his room! There's no symbol on one side, and an eye on the other.

He'll get the feeling that he can offer this to one of his role NPCs in place of completing a task! It's a freebie favor, basically.]

TALK TO CHUUYA

[doublesmall]

[Hello as usual... fox Chuuya is here, draped sideways over a chair like an asshole.]

Hope you're ready to get out there again this week.

[givethemhell]

[HOPE HE DOES MCDIE!! But he'll actually remain standing this by some blessed stroke of whatever god remains in the sky, hand at his hip.]

Hm, hm - well, you already have me doing enough running around already! Adding a little more to it couldn't hurt. What's the task?

TALK TO NATHAN

[notaquaman]

[Who is just chillin and looking out the big window.]

[givethemhell]

[After he's done collecting his mission, he'll stop on by where Nathan is hanging out, reaching out to pat his shoulder before holding out a little bundle wrapped in a napkin.]

Brought something for you!

WEEK SIX

[fullthottle]

[It's community center time once more! The place nobody wanted to go.]

TASK

[fullthottle]

[After talking to his hosts, Wei Wuxian will receive the following notification on his clamshell:]

Check in on 5 people and offer help with an injury or misc. problem.

[Comment here with your list of 5 no later than 11:59 PM EST on Friday for Wei Wuxian's reward!]

[givethemhell]

TALK TO NATHAN

[notaquaman]

[He's a little harder to find this time. He's somewhere outside on one of the second floor walkways, smoking a cigarette.]

[givethemhell]

[He's gonna be HUNTING NATHAN DOWN ANYWAY gotta check on his two hosts before he bounces... Once he spots Nathan though, he'll just plop down nearby on the floor.]

Holding up alright...?

TALK TO CHUUYA

[doublesmall]

[Chuuya is looking a little paranoid, actually, watching the exit closely?

But he brightens when he sees Wei Wuxian, unfortunate as that is. Hi.]

New week, same old. But you might want to make this quick-- not that it's usually a problem.

[givethemhell]

[UNFORTUNATE AS THAT IS INDEED but hi. He reaches forward to tug some of the hair framing Chuuya's face, which is apparently supposed to be an affectionate gesture - though he's a little distracted by his words.]

Will do, will do! What is it this time? [...] And are you waiting for something?

[Paranoia???]
