week three | mingle

[marriagebroker]

No outright changes this week either. Week three rolls around, braced for impact as ever. The estate is still intact, the contestants are still motivated, things are looking good.

Well, aside from the fact you all had a blackout this weekend. That wasn't so good.

Either way, when Monday rolls around, Wei Wuxian seems to be in a cheery mood as he greets everyone Monday morning.

"Everyone, come here, come here. I have an announcement!"

Better go see what that's about, huh?

Just how drunk are you? [Aventurine was more obvious...and maybe she is also a little more obvious.

But Serpilia's not like, too drunk-drunk, right? Soggily checking her pupils as we speak. Which probably does mean holding her face.]

[nrangel]

[ She'll lean in for it, laughing a little more. ]

Sober enough to know what I'm doing.

[ So with her face nice and close to Furina's, she'll lean in the rest of the way to press a small peck to her lips. Though as she pulls back a bit and gives Furina one of her usual smiles, she will admit: ]

But I would maybe not trust me to drive a car right now.

[enscene]

[It's time for a second fussy whine when the kiss is so small and brief, very-so-subtly angling for another. Furina is also definitely feeling bolder and less everything-shy, less self-conscious and more prone to chasing what she wants. This whole group of four is going to get what they want tonight because they have the best plan. Bet on it.]

That's okay! We just need to find a way to push this thing over to the other property. It's not a long stroll at all.

[nrangel]

[ A laugh at the little whine, so before she responds to that request, Furina gets another, it's short, but it's followed by a third and a forth. Soft little kisses peppered on her lips, before she clears her throat and looks back at the suana.

Her expression shifts slightly to genuine confusion. ]

Wait, the sauna thing is still real?

[enscene]

[She's mollified by that, but her eyes, widened and slightly hazy, blink rapidly a few times at the question.

What's so hard about getting her big, impressive plan across?]

Ah, I think only people who have found their perfect match are admitted across the property lines... Though the path up there is quite private once you leave the borders of this estate.

[nrangel]

[ Oh, she's catching on now, blinking away that last little watery vestiges of tears as she looks at the sauna contemplatively. ]

So if someone were to get past the line without being spotted, then they'd be pretty much home free.

[ A grin as the plan starts to make sense to her now. ]

[enscene]

Precisely! It's a very peaceful walk, even late at night. [With no light...while drunk...surely they'll make it over there just fine.] We should have no problem getting the sauna down to the treeline once we get it around the main building.

...And, since Aventurine here has just signed off on donating the sauna to the Honeymoon Suite, we're also not breaking any rules! [This is added very quickly, if only as a safeguard to make sure Wriothesley doesn't show up to pick her up when filming ends.]

[nrangel]

[ Not that Serpilia has all that many issues with breaking rules, despite being someone who is meant to work as one of the many cogs in the Rules Machine.

She will nod in encouragement and agreement at everything Furina is saying though. ]

I can't see any flaws in this plan.

[ She is also drunk, so thinking plans through thoroughly would not be the easiest thing for her right now, but look... ]

[enscene]

[Now they have plenty of sponsorship for their sauna sneaking adventure...everything needed to execute the plan is right here in place.

Furina goes into a much laxer version of her director mode, clapping her hands together with determination.]

Well, Ringo let the most important sleight of hand slip to explain it to you, so we might have to reconsider the...execution. But she also expedited things in the end, so... [She gives a little fond smile that she's incapable of controlling here.] Let's just figure it out while we're getting it down to the property line.

[nrangel]

With all four of us, I think we should be able to move it together, right? Unless we managed to find something to set it up on without all of the extra hassle, and I'm all about not having to do too much manual labor.

[ She has drones to do things for her for a reason. ]
