WHO: FILTHY WEEDS . . . and anyone who wants to try and lurk
WHERE: near the fountain
WHEN: Day 8, late night

[ Late at night, a couple of the newcomers may or may not be lurking near the fountain, waiting to discuss things! They're not a team, so they're not exactly organized, okay.

Non-weeds are, of course, welcome to try and see what they're up to. have fun with that. ]

[ She's just chilling by the fountain, floating on her coiled darkness boredly. ]

Hmm . . .

[mykidisthebest]

[this one is in the process of dropping things into the fountain and looking disappointed when they don't vanish. this return-home device is broken as hell]

A whole town and not a single coffee shop. What's a guy gotta do to get a cafe latte around here...

[mykidisthebest]

[TAKES A SEAT NEXT TO HER. exhales.]

All right. You go first.

[soulsurvivore]

Well, first things first. I've chosen a name for myself.

[mykidisthebest]

Yeah? Let's hear it then. Did you pick a theme too?

[soulsurvivore]

I decided against a theme. Why bother? It would be fun, but we're all rather disagreeable, aren't we? I thought I'd save myself the headache.

In any case, you may call me "Faith."

[mykidisthebest]

Faith, huh? Not bad. It's nice to be formally introduced, then, Faith.

[he has no name to give yet. so he moves on,]

Did you meet anyone else with a black collar by chance?

[soulsurvivore]

I saw a young man setting sheep on fire and another uncouth individual. But they were the only other ones that I saw.

[mykidisthebest]

I did think there was only four of us--wait, who was setting sheep on fire?!

[soulsurvivore]

He doesn't have a name yet. But really, he was quite a gentleman! He made sure to make it slow so I could take their souls.

[mykidisthebest]

Please don't torture the sheep. They didn't do anything to deserve such an excruciating death.

[soulsurvivore]

Hmm, that reminds me.

I talked with the Snake.

[mykidisthebest]

--Oh, good. I got sidetracked, but I meant to talk to him. So? What did he say?

[soulsurvivore]

[ She glances around before leaning in. ]

We're here to sow "chaos and fear." In other words, we're disruptions to the harmony of this pasture. And if we do so, Snake will rewards us. I've already received a dwelling as a reward.

[mykidisthebest]

[...leans in]

You realize that's a shitty deal for us, right? Everyone Blossom brought over doesn't have to do anything and they get a barn for free. The snake is ripping us off. It's a scam.

[soulsurvivore]

And most people here were on a first name basis with Death before we even came here. The grass isn't greener on the other side.

[mykidisthebest]

[waves a hand]

I'm not saying Blossom is a perfect alternative. The cultist sheep obviously have something else weird going on. My preference would be to avoid having a direct affiliation with any of them. You can mess around with the snake as much as you want, just don't sign any contracts, got it? With anyone, sheep or snake or anything in between.

[eventually sauntering in, probably bleeding. Maybe more later idk don't pick fights with genshins]

Is this where you live now?

[soulsurvivore]

No, I got my own dwelling from the Snake. I've placed it elsewhere.

[ somewhere (tm). ]

What did you get into?

[soulsurvivore]

[ She considers, and then nods. ]

Fair enough. I'm not following the Snake blindly, of course. It's just a reasonable arrangement for now given the circumstances.

[imblue_dabi_me_daddy_die]

There's some annoying quirk users here. I'll just have to burn 'em faster.

You got a whole house?

[soulsurvivore]

I received housing. It is not much, but it is enough.

[ She tips her head to the side. There's that word again. ]

Did they object to your culling of the flocks?

[mykidisthebest]

It's still a scam! But if you're planning to "sow chaos and fear" anyways then you might as well get something out of it.

[...clears his throat]

Speaking of sowing chaos, I have something I want to do. Would you be willing to help me out?

[soulsurvivore]

Hmm . . . potentially. I'll hear you out, at least.

[imblue_dabi_me_daddy_die]

Turns out people don't take kindly to being immolated. And my flames ain't quite as wide reaching here. Kinda lame.
