OOC INFORMATION

MINGLE
RITUAL

The elevator opens up into a huge bathroom lined with independent shower stalls. The room is large enough that there is a stall for every participant in the game. The structure of the room itself is entirely a polished, chrome-like metal with an impossibly sterile feeling to it, not unlike the rest of the bathrooms in the Tower.

The retrieval units lead the players to the stalls. Pulling back the curtain reveals that within the shower stalls are not actually showers, but old-fashioned claw foot tubs. The tubs, in sharp contrast to the metal of the room, don't look like they've ever seen a cleaning product. Rust and mineral deposit cover the taps and faucet. The tub itself is crusted with a build-up of minerals, soap scum, and mold. One threadbare white towel rests folded next to the tub, and a plain white bar of soap sits on top of the towel.

The players are then supplied with a piece of paper including instructions on what they are to do in the stall. If they're not able to read, it will be read to them. Judging by how the retrieval units guard the elevator, there is no leaving until the instructions are completed.

Better get to bathing.

Romeo didn't know what it meant but thought it was maybe like putting your fist on your heart, so copied the gesture, curling all his fingers but his little one. "We'll look after each other!"

Guy chuckled again, reaching out to the younger boy's hand and hooking their pinkies together. The hands bob once, twice, before Guy lets go.

"Pinky swear. It means I'm not gonna forget that. And I'll look after you, Romeo. Got it?"

Romeo watched wide eyed as their fingers moved. He nodded, "Got it! Pinky swear!"

"Right."

He glanced around, a questioning look at the other people around the room.

"I'll keep my eyes open and be careful. You do the same, alright? And keep trying your hardest. I'm sure there's a lot of people here who are scared."

"I will! I'll do my best to help them keep their spirits up!"
