week one | arrival
The characters will arrive one by one, in whatever vehicle suits them the best to the front of estate. It's a beautiful estate filled with plants and trees and little ponds and all kinds of little hideaways. But it all cumulates at the main house, where they will be dropped off and greeted by a familiar face who stands outside the house and welcomes them in. They will be able to bring one suitcase with items and clothes as well as their pet(s?).
The main thing to notice when you step into the house though is that cameras are everywhere. Despite the many little hideaways of this house, there's no privacy whatsoever. Oh well!
When everyone is gathered together, the host from earlier will greet everyone with a merry:
"Welcome, my affection seeking friends! This is where you'll be staying the next few weeks. Find a place to settle in and get to know each other! I'll be around, in case you need anything."
He genuinely seems to mean it, at least?! But that seems to be it, he'll slip away in the meantime and leave you all to it.
A few things to note, of course:

A few things to note, of course:
- There is only one "bedroom" which is a large room, with a closet full of futons to roll out and use in said room. Sleepover time!
- There is an extra, extra, extra, extra large futon for Messmer.
- In one of the rooms of the estate, there is a lovely piano ready for use. Feel free to ask for more instruments, if you'd like.
- The kitchen is filled with food of all kinds and modern appliances so folks can cook whatever they'd like! There is also a bar in the kitchen, stocked with alcohol.
- In the living room, there is a screen showing everyone's profiles. It is touch screen, so feel free to swipe through!
- There is, of course, a banner in the living room reading 有緣千里來相會 (which, for the keen-eyed, translates to "Fate brings together those that are a thousand miles apart"). This was definitely written by the host.
- There is a welcome cake.

[She says this shamelessly.]
But I'm eager to experience what makes them so engaging for everyone.
[And he's pretty, so like. That's a win-win?]
no subject
[ HELP HIM UNDERSTAND PLEASE ]
no subject
[She just shrugs a bit, amused.]
I guess it's technically most accurate to say that this body is two months old. Before that, I was part of an amorphous amalgamation of data. So I wasn't exactly me, in that sense.
But! Now I am. Does that make sense?
no subject
[ Cool?? ]
no subject
[She was not expecting that... people usually struggle to comprehend the concept.]
That's me! The name's Ringo.
no subject
A pleasure, Mademoiselle Ringo! I am Nicodème, but you can call me Nico.
Are you truly here to look for love?
no subject
[She likes it...]
I'm here to experience some more human things! If love happens along the way, then I'm open to it, but I don't know how likely it is.
[A shrug.]
Statistically, relationships on these sorts of shows don't tend to laugh.
What about you?
no subject
Non, non, my friend!
[ He surges forward to clasp her hands in his own. ]
None of this statistics talk! In these endeavors you must think with your heart! Who cares if it will last? It will be beautiful because it happened. I have the utmost faith in your ability to find love!
no subject
[Help, he's suddenly right there, holding her hands.]
Er--riiiight. Well, even if it doesn't, I'll still have experienced a lot of things I wouldn't have otherwise, you know? So it'll be a win for me either way.
I take that to mean you're a huge romantic, then?
no subject
[ He's still holding her hands, I'm sorry. ]
Oui. I find love to be the most beautiful of all.
no subject
[Like a puppy.]
I hope you find it, then! I'll be rooting for you, Nico. Oh, oh, and if anyone catches your eye, let me know and I'll do what I can to nudge you two together!
no subject
[ Okay, now he lets her go. ]
You must allow me to do the same for you. It is only fair!
no subject
[ramey don't do this to me they can't immediately bromance-zone each other.]
Still, does that mean you're too much of a romantic to kiss people on first meeting?
no subject
If the lovely lady would still like a kiss, I would be happy to indulge her.
no subject
[The difference in vibes in how they talk is so funny.
But regardless, she steps closer with easy confidence, considers how tall he is, and reaches up to rest her hand lightly at the back of his neck.]
Might need you to bend down a little, though.
no subject
[ He slings an arm around her waist and spins them both into a low dip, like they’re on the dance floor instead of just standing around the living room. Nico is steady and sure, in a way that feels inhuman, but he’s also warm and very much alive. ]
I have you.
[ And with that, he closes the distance between them to press their lips together. ]
no subject
She's not expecting to be dipped, and she does make a startled noise--but he's steady and sure, and despite her surprise, not for a moment does Ringo feel like there's even a chance he'd drop her.
And then he's kissing her, and there's a bit of a laugh on her lips as she kisses back, lifting a hand to grasp at his arm lightly, the other resting on his shoulder.
Points of contact, but comfortably so.]
no subject
Have I swept you off your feet?
no subject
[Given she's been very much swept into that dip.
But she grins up at him nonetheless, pleased. A nice kiss... soft and warm, not too much, but also not too little.]
Hey, you are good at this!
no subject
[ Said as he rights them both. ]
You will get the hang of it too, I am sure.
no subject
[Once she's righted, she props both of her hands on her hips and give him a beam.]
Next time, I'm gonna be the one to sweep you off your feet! So be prepared for it!
no subject
no subject
[Wow, that was fun. She flaps a hand a little, and:]
Guess we should keep mingling with the others, huh, Nico? Let's talk again soon, though!
