week one

[slowpokey]

WELCOME

Welcome to the Sweet Home program, a brand new experience designed to help you meet and bond with total strangers! You will be living with thirteen others for two weeks in a shared home, and shortly after our debriefing, we will go over your individual careers which you will take on while you're part of the program. There may be some trials and tribulations that you will face while you are here, but they're nothing that you won't be able to overcome with the help of your fellow residents!

As compensation for your time here, we will grant you any material object of your choice, whether that be a huge sum of cash, a weapon, or an ancient artifact. We deeply appreciate your cooperation, after all!

Enjoy your stay, Sweeties!

WEEK ONE

The day after your debriefing, a staff member escorts you to your destination. All you have on you, other than the clothes on your back, is a cellphone, which you were also given a tutorial on during your introductory period. The Sweet Home staff even went through the trouble of setting up social media accounts for each of you! How nice. (Whether or not you retained any of that is up to you.)

A cobblestone path leads the way to the front door of a large, newly renovated home. You take your first steps onto the property, open the door. One by one, people start to enter the house – your new housemates, all of different ages, appearances, from entirely different worlds. This is the day of introductions, settling in.

On the kitchen counter are a few things: One of them is a paper with everyone's room assignments, though there's nothing that appears to be really enforcing this. All you get regarding this is that list, as well as separate room keys, one for each occupant. Speaking of keys, you also get a house key attached on the same keyring! And the last set of keys, of which there are only three, are…car keys, if you know what those are. One for each vehicle in the garage.

There are also some icebreaker questions provided to help you get to know your new housemates. Again, there's nothing enforcing this, but they are there if you feel like chatting it up with others.

Otherwise, there is no work on Sunday. This is the day you get to settle in and get to know your fellow participants!


🌼 🏠 🌼 🏠 🌼 🏠 🌼 🏠 🌼

Once Monday comes around, it's time to start working! Each character will start off with an allowance that will allow them to get some clothes and basic necessities, but will get paid at their jobs with the town's currency by the end of the week. Shifts are varied, but there will always be downtime before and after to hang around your housemates. That being said…there seems to be a rise in some strange things happening to everyone in the house at different times throughout the week. Some of these seem to be just pure happenstance, but other incidents seem to feel more impulsive. Some even seem to be caused by some sort of magic? How strange…

SCHEDULE

Here is the Schedule of Unfortunate Events for Week One. This will not be posted anywhere ICly.

MONDAY, SUNNY ☀️
– Gaku, you will gain a musical instrument – a recorder, to be exact. How you acquire it doesn't matter, but should you choose to start playing it? Oh god, it's so bad that one of your neighbors will come over and complain about it.
– Lia, you will be especially clumsy today. It seems like you can't stop bumping into things, knocking stuff over, etc. The clinic is here if you end up with any injuries.
– Caelus, an unknown number will send you a mysterious text message. If you end up forwarding this to at least three other people and get them to forward it themselves, you will be granted good luck for the rest of the day. Otherwise, you will have bad luck.

TUESDAY, SUNNY ☀️
– Demi, you are dissatisfied with how some parts of the house are decorated, so you will take matters into your own hands. Whatever that means is completely up to you. :)
– Émilienne, you will be chased by bees just before you start work. They will not sting you, unless they think you are hostile. However, they'll chill around you for the rest of your shift if you don't do anything to make them go away.
– Chuuya, you will be especially hungry today. Any meals that you purchase or make yourself don't seem to be doing it! What will, however, is eating food that your housemates have made (or purchased). Time for some food theft!

WEDNESDAY, CLOUDY ☁️
– Elysia, a kid will throw a basketball at you right as you step foot outside of the house, and it will hit you right in the face. (Whether or not this was done on purpose is up to you.) You can get it treated at the clinic, but a red mark will remain even if you get it healed. The mark will stay on your face for the rest of the week.
– Lacy, you are exceptionally cold today. You need to seek warmth, but it's that from others. Staying under a blanket by yourself won't do the job. Time to share!
– Wanderer, you feel the urge to order delivery for one of your meals. Should you do so, the ETA will keep getting more and more pushed back, and the company won't want to refund you. They're quite argumentative with you, actually.

THURSDAY, RAINY 🌧️
– Kratos, the first electric appliance/device you try to use in the house won't work. It will not work until you ask nicely. Every time you insult it, it will whack you with its cord.
– March 7th, you will play some music on a stereo inside the house, and somehow make the volume so loud that it nearly blows the speakers. The remote control is nowhere to be found...in your immediate vicinity, anyway.
– Dagr, you will feel compelled to watch a B-movie, with or without anyone else, and feel the urge to give your scathing (or glowing) review of it to anyone in your vicinity. If they disagree with you, you'll feel compelled to throw popcorn at their face.


FRIDAY, STORMING ⛈️
– Trahearne, the first thing you will drink today is laced with tons of energy, no matter what drink it is, and will make you extremely energetic for four hours.
– Zhongli, your phone glitches and won't stop calling random people in the house at random hours of the day. It also won't hang up until after you've talked to them for at least a few minutes.

⭐️ Surprise! The power at the house will go out at approximately 5:00pm due to the rain. Better prepare for a chilly night…or two, with how hard it's storming.

ICly, characters will be completely unaware of what's to come, other than perhaps upcoming weather changes, which can be found on their phones as well as the weather channel on TV. This schedule is for OOC purposes.

OOC NOTES

– Most prompts are pretty open-ended. There aren't really strict rules on things like outcomes, severity of injuries, etc. Feel free to get creative with how you'd like to play out the prompts given to you.

– Likewise, there are no rules such as "You can only post on Monday on Monday OOCly". If you want to start making forward-dated top levels, feel free to! The day headings are only there for the sake of keeping a nice timeline of events.
– Since day heading format may be unfamiliar for some of you, I'll give an example. March 7th wants to have a baking cookies prompt on Monday, and a silly prompt on Thursday. I can comment to Monday's header with a top level of her baking cookies, and then comment to Thursday's with a silly top level. Here is an example for your reference.

– The phones will function like modern day smartphones. Yes, there are apps similar to Twitter and Instagram, though you'll only really be able to follow each other.
– Network posts are allowed on this log.
– NSFW is allowed, but please tag it accordingly.

SUNDAY

[slowpokey]

[versioned]

welcome!

[ March 7th is one of the first to arrive at the house. She walks in, and her eyes light up at how large and adorable it is. It's certainly less...modern than what she's used to, but she's excited to explore a new world, even if it's without her companions (though she'll be pleasantly surprised to see Caelus!).

Still, she'll take a look at the kitchen counter and its contents, but before she can really examine anything, she sees someone approach or enter the house. She'll greet them with a bright smile and a little wave. ]

Hey! Nice to meet you. I'm March 7th. [ She takes a look at the roommate list. ] What's your name? I'll check if we're rooming together.

photo time

[ Later in the day, March can be found using her phone to take photos. These are photos of various parts of the house, with or without people in them. If you're caught in her line of sight, she'll wave over and say: ]

Look this way! Smile for the camera!

wildcard

[ OTA! Also, regarding Honkai Star Rail spoilers, I will not bring those up unless I'm told specifically that spoilers are fine. If it feels like they may come up in our thread, I'll ask you before I post 'em! I'll make sure to tag appropriately, too. March 7th's canonpoint is during the epilogue of Jarilo-VI. ]

welcome!

[sidebraid]

( Lacy blinks. )

Sorry, did you say your name's March 7th? Like ... the date?

photo time

[pactmarshal]

[ Trahearne is busy looking at the small collection of books in the shelves when March surprises him.

So he looks her way as he's told, yes, but the second half of the command doesn't quite register. Tyria doesn't have cameras, you see.

He frowns in his confusion, probably at the same time she takes the picture. ]

What?

[ What? ]

Welcome!

[lavieenrouge]

[In contrast: this house is much more modern than what Em is used to! Regardless, she can't help but find the décor - and the company - simply adorable. March 7th included! Whose smile and wave will be met with one of each in kind!]

The pleasure is mine! My name is Émilienne, though, is there anything to say we cannot be roommates even if we are not placed together by the list?

[Flutters! Eyelashes!]

photo time / wildcard

[trashlore]

[ You know, he's ecstatic when he sees March is around! It's a relief knowing another member of the Express is here, but while he absolutely wants to approach her immediately, it also looks like she's in the middle of something passingly important. Which means he has two options.

He likes to consider that, maybe somewhere out there, another version of him (maybe a female one? She could have long, flowing hair with the most golden dead fish eyes anyone had ever seen. Maybe every time this hypothetical female him looked in the mirror she, too, would be thinking about him and his dead fish eyes. Comforting thoughts) would pick the second, far more normal greeting. Like saying "hi" or, if she wanted to go off-script, running up and hugging March.

But he decides to pick the first path. The unchosen path, so to speak. Even if it's being chosen.

...

Anyway, he makes his choice and sneaks up behind March. He gives her bunny ears, as everyone knows is required of all photo bombers, but he also does his very best impression of Dan Heng. It's passable, but then again he's not always very expressive himself so, well, that's not surprising. ]

[sidebraid]

welcome.

( In a way, this experience reminds her of being back at university. It's not the first time that Lacy has joined a houseshare with strangers like this. She wasn't expecting a repeat of this in her twenties, but here she is. Once everyone's in the house, she'll turn to someone and offer an introduction. )

Hiya! I'm Lacy...! What's your name?

fancy a cuppa?

( Being an Englishwoman, there's one necessity that Lacy needs to survive in a brand new home: Tea. The tall woman has been snooping through the cupboard to try and find some, while simultaneously investigating what the house is stocked with. She makes an audible sigh of relief when she finds boxes of tea bags! )

Whew! Crisis averted! We've got tea!

( Was it a crisis? It was absolutely a crisis. She takes the box down out of the cupboard and grabs a mug for herself, and another mug when she realises she's in company. )

Now then, fancy a cuppa tea? How d'you like it? ( Or maybe another hot beverage if not tea ... )

drinks.

( The house has tea, which is incredible. And the house also has wine! Double incredible! Around the evening, Lacy likely suggested cracking open one of the wine bottles to celebrate this fun and interesting cross-universe gathering, while lounging on the sofa. With a wine glass in hand, she's going through the suggested questions while getting to know some of her new housemates. )

Would I tell someone if their underwear was showing? Of course! If my pants were out in public and no one told me, I think I might actually die. Wouldn't you?

wildcard.

( feel free to hmu with anything else! )

cuppa !!!!!

[pactmarshal]

[ Surprise! Your company is one of the houseplants! The sentient, person-shaped one. The one who looks a little antsy, like he has somewhere to be.

Trahearne isn't expecting to be spoken to, and he practically jumps when Lacy speaks. He glances around the kitchen, and...they're alone. Curiously, and slightly confused, he peers at her to ask, ]

I'm sorry, are you speaking to me?

[ There it is... the Plant Eton accent. ]

cuppa

[tomestones]

Eh, never been one for tea. Where I'm from, you're lucky if you get anythin' other than ale.

[It's sort of a joke... kind of...]

But I'm willin' to try. Maybe I just haven't had a good cup yet, yeah?

Drinks!

[lavieenrouge]

[Sure, sure, the house has tea, and wine, which is all well and good (the latter especially so if she gets a chance to snack on someone who has, themselves, indulged in said wine...), but more importantly, it has interesting people fumbling around getting to know one another.

Complete with icebreaker questions. The horror.]

Oh, darling, no! [...Shameless! Still, she takes the question as invitation to lounge on the sofa with the other girl.] Though if mine were showing in public it would certainly be intentional.

[tomestones]

welcome

[Well, this is a nice change of pace! Sure, things are very different here from what Dagr's used to, but considering they were lured here with the prospect of gil, they certainly aren't about to complain! The first order of business is grabbing their keys, and then they're off to the kitchen to check out the stock. It seems like this group really is in good hands... though this food probably won't last forever. So far, everything checks out from the explanation, anyway. This still sounds a bit too good to be true, but there's no reason to look a gift chocobo in the beak just yet.

Anyway, while Dagr is looking around in here (and marveling at all the tech they don't know how to use), they'll notice you eventually and hold up a hand in greeting.]

Hey! So you're one of the lucky ones brought here too, eh? What's your name?

icebreaker

[Now that they're settled in a bit - only a bit because there is still so much to explore here, and Dagr is going to be poking their nose everywhere - they've turned their attention to the icebreaker questions. Getting to know their fellow housemates seems like a good idea, so here they are with the sheet in hand.]

"If you had only 24 hours to live..." Wow, off to a bad start, huh. "What would you do?" Way too harsh a question for a first meeting...

[did. did they just not read it before saying it?? thanks, dagr.]

Let's see, how 'bout... "If you could have any super power, what would it be and why?" That's better, let's go with that one.

wildcard

( Want to do something else with Dagr? Hit me here, on discord, or over on plurk at pokerap and we can plan something else out! Dagr's going to be exploring the house and the grounds thoroughly so you can find them anywhere - they're generally laidback and easy-going so they won't mind company! If you'd like to know more about them, you can find the info over here! )

MONDAY

[slowpokey]

[associative]

[ As they're all out to work starting on Monday, Gaku can be found at The Manatee, either behind the counter ready to take orders or sitting at one of the tables on his break, scrolling his phone. Regardless, he'll wave at whoever comes in.

Once he's done with work and back at the house in his room, he's found himself with... a recorder? It was on his bed and clearly meant for him, name card attached to it and all, so he shrugs and sits down on his bed and plays a few notes.

It sounds... bad, and the door to his room is unfortunately wide open. He stares down at the recorder. ]

Huh. Is something wrong with it?

[ Time to play a few more notes!

In the evening, Gaku is in the kitchen, gathering up ingredients for dinner. ]

Hey, want something to eat? I'll cook whatever you're in the mood for.

[ Gaku will be having soba for himself, but he has no issues with making something else too. ]

TUESDAY

[slowpokey]

WEDNESDAY

[slowpokey]

[meanspirited]

delivery woes;
[He doesn't need to eat - he's capable of it, sure, his body passing as mortal in some respects, but he doesn't have to. Most food isn't even that appealing to him, either, but he has found a fondness for how bitter tea can get. The aftertaste is interesting...

And this place has modern conveniences, so he can just. Order tea and have someone put it at the doorstep without him even having to talk to a human! Or at least that would be the case, except for the delays. The first notice for a delay he simply scoffs, because who can expect efficiency or punctuality from humans... The second delay gets more irritation, and then the third, and then the fourth... and by the time he actually calls the stupid help line for this stupid problem, his (rather short) patience has run out.

(There is yelling. A lot of yelling. Especially because this phone is a useless piece of junk!!) Feel free to walk in on him fuming (or threatening customer service) at any point in time.]






the stinger;
[Eventually, an order with no name attached to it arrives at the doorstep of the house.

It's a cup of tea that was at one point ice, but the ice is totally melted and also? Not even what he ordered. He picks up the full cup, and throws it as hard as he can across the yard.

Fuck this!!!]

[sidebraid]

cold i.

( Anyone in the house will see Lacy wearing a hoodie and fleece pyjama bottoms, with both arms wrapped around her body. She is investigating the heat thermostat - confused as to why the temperature in the house is pretty warm, yet she's stone cold. When she reaches out to touch one of the radiators attached to the wall, she can feel the heat emanating off it. But she's freezing? This is so puzzling. The baffled woman turns to anyone nearby to comment on it. )

... Are you feeling as cold as I am right now? I'm like a block of ice ...

cold ii.

( The entire time that Lacy has been in the house, she has been larping as a normal human woman. Well! This isn't the case, actually! She's a flower fairy - capable of growing flowers and transforming into a hooved creature with feathered wings called a canterwit. As she continues to battle the cold, Lacy has considered an alternate method to try and stay warm. But ... she hasn't transformed here yet! No one knows that she can, either. She's been so careful at keeping it a secret. But at the same time ... she's so cold she can't stand it. If having fur and feathers keeps her warmer, so be it. It's worth the risk.

When the door opens, Lacy will be spotted curled up on a sofa in one or two scenarios when she believes she's alone - either partially transformed with a pair of feathered wings hugging her body along with antlers, soft ears on her head coupled with a long brown horse tail lined with blue flowers, or fully transformed into her fairy form. While fully transformed, she is around the size of a baby horse. When spotted, she gasps. )

... !!

! Surprise Event

[slowpokey]

[ It's around 6:00pm on Wednesday, when a notification pops up on everyone's phones. This one takes up the entire screen, unlike the usual notifications which can be deleted easily: ]

Hi, Sweeties! It's us, long time no talk!
Hope you're all enjoying your stay. We've got a surprise exercise for you all to help you get to know each other a little more! Ready? This is the Two Truths and One Lie Exercise!

Simply put, we've constructed profiles with a little information about each of you. Take this time to scroll through everyone's profiles, and let them know what you think is the lie. Additionally, you can write them a nice note, ask them a question...but you also have the option to be anonymous. ;)

Go, go, go! Scroll away!

--

OOC: Go ahead and make profiles for your characters! I made a very basic code for y'all to use here:

<center><img src="URL at least 500px width" width="500"> <font face="arial"><b>character name</b> | hometown/world | age <b>trivia:</b> write a fun fact about them here list the two truths and one lie here</font></center>

You can write whatever you'd like OOCly, make it as funny as you want! ICly, characters won't have a say in these. Submit them under this top level for organizational purposes! Please indicate if your character is commenting anonymously. And yes, everyone can see everyone's comments!

THURSDAY

[slowpokey]

[versioned]

[ It's a boring, rainy day for poor March. She can be found at the clinic, right at the front desk, checking in anyone who shows up. If it's someone from the house, however, she'll raise an eyebrow. ]

Uh, what...? Why are you here?

[ Later in the day, though, at around 9:30pm... The house will suddenly shake from a very loud bass sound coming from the living room.

That's because this is playing. March has her hands over her ears and sees to be frantically searching for something. ]

Where the heck is the remote?!

[ Reese's Puffs! Are you in misery yet? ]

FRIDAY

[slowpokey]

[pactmarshal]

> too much energy.

[ Trahearne often wakes up very early in the morning with the sunrise, so it's apt that his usual serving of black coffee comes at around 6 AM.

So perhaps it's a good thing that four hours of excessive energy only lasts him until about 10. Maybe not, for those who prefer to sleep in much later.

Excuse the racket as he spends the first couple of hours of his day frenetically rearranging and cleaning the kitchen, the living room, opening and closing doors as he ventures outside to tend to the yard and back again. At some point, he probably drops and breaks a mug. Shortly after the shatter, you may hear-- ]

Thorns!

[ For those who manage to sleep through the noise, they will probably wake up to a frantic series of tweets from the resident sylvari.

@ firstborn - 06:43
Though it rains, I feel the rays of the sun invigorate me through the dreary cover over the sky. Long has it been since I've felt so awake.
- -
@ firstborn - 06:44
I have not felt this way since first dawn of my own awakening. To unfurl in the brilliance of daybreak, to understand what it means to be alive. To stand on the brink of the unknown and believe it conquerable.
- -
@ firstborn - 06:47
Or perhaps it is the coffee.
- -
@ firstborn - 06:48
I believe it is the coffee.
- -
@ firstborn - 06:49
A warning to those who will have coffee today: It is much too strong. My apologies. I have no one but myself to blame.
- -
@ firstborn - 06:49
Pardon the noise while I do a bit of tidying.

When he arrives at work, he accidentally flings open the door so hard that it causes the nearby cases and shelves to shudder, and it shuts with an obnoxious rattle. If Zhongli's in, he'll look apologetically at his boss... Sorry!

Once the effect wears off, he decides to retreat to the back rooms of the store and not answer any of his messages. He's had enough embarrassing himself for the day. ]

> lights out.

[ The lights go off at 5... But never fear! The nightlight is here!

As the day wanes, Trahearne's glow grows stronger. Even if the house is stuck without light into the night, well...you'll at least be able to find Trahearne. ]

> wildcard.

(( COME AT ME ))

🐲📳 SPAM CALLS

[lapides]

SPAM CALL @ 12:01AM 📳

[Zhongli thinks he's got a grasp on how to use this device. It's a rather practical thing, but he hasn't used it too much. He can see how useful it can be, but he can't help but prefer face to face conversation. After all, conversations are simple not voice and words, but body language and expression, too.

He's about ready for the night when he hears the device making a sound that's different from the ringing he's heard before.]

SPAM CALL @ 3:44AM 📳

[Zhongli's phone is calling someone yet again in the middle of the night. His phone is not close to him, so it might take him a while to get to it. So it'll take several minutes or some yelling for him to answer.]

SPAM CALL @ 6:09AM 📳

[He's an earlier riser usually, but the phone wakes him up. He's not sure what's wrong with his phone, but he's gotten the idea on how to at least temporarily deal with it.]

I apologize for the early call this morning. I am Zhongli of Jìyì Antiques and Bookstore. It seems my phone device is having an issue that needs to be fixed. I intend to do so when the stores open, but for now, the only way to end this call that I am aware of is to have a brief conversation.

SPAM CALL @ 10:30AM 📳

[His phone is calling yet again. He turned it off but it turned back on before it started calling. At least this time it's not so early in the morning.]

I apologize for the sudden call. I am Zhongli of Jìyì Antiques and Bookstore. My phone device keeps making calls on its own despite my best efforts to turn it off and trying to find someone to fix it. The only thing that seems to work is to have a brief conversation or you will be unable to end this call and use your phone.

SPAM CALL @ 2:50PM 📳

[At least he's gotten some respite from the calls, but the sound is already ringing in his head. He's exasperated by the calls, but he doesn't want to voice his annoyance towards the other person. He's the one being more intruding and pestering by his phone making these calls.]

...this is Zhongli of Jìyì Antiques and Bookstore. I apologize for the intrusion and did not intend to call you. My phone is having some sort of technical issues. Yes, I have tried restarting it, turning it off, and a few other recommendations that proved fruitless. The only thing that works so far is just having a short conversation so my phone will end this call.

SPAM CALL @ 5:22PM 📳

[By now, he's already got a prepared message when his phone starts to call people so he starts that right away.]

I am Zhongli of Jìyì Antiques and Bookstore. My phone has been calling people on its own without my discretion. This call will not end until we speak for about five minutes, so would you mind speaking with me? I apologize if you were in the middle of something, but it's best to get this out of the way so we can go back to what we both were doing.

SPAM CALL @ 8:15PM 📳

[At least the calls are not constant, but the sound of his phone ringing has firmly supplanted in his mind as something negative. Which is rather unfortunate, as for the beginning of the week, he found it useful up until today. His patience is getting rather thin, and maybe the suggestion of destroy his phone is becoming slightly more appealing, especially if it continues to happen the rest of the time he's here.

At least the conversations haven't been so bad, some even nice.]

This is Zhongli of Jìyì Antiques and Bookstore. An apology is in order foremost for the interruption and unintended call. This phone has been calling others on its own and nothing so far stopped this occurrence. Both of us will be unable to end this call until we have a conversation spanning around five minutes. You can pick a topic or question to discuss or I can pick something if you like.

SPAM CALL @ 11:53PM 📳

[He swears it's been almost a full twenty-four hours of this going on. After this call, he's going to destroy this phone and buy another. He knows he can manage perfectly fine without a phone. He can't be the only one that has this issue, right? It appears so as no on else has mentioned having this issue nor has he gotten any unintended calls.]

I apologize for the late call. I'm Zhongli of Jìyì Antiques and Bookstore and this phone continues to call people within the house we all share. It will keep pestering you until we have a five minute conversation. I can tell you a story that should take about five minutes of your time and then I will be able to end the call. Or if you wish to tell me how your day went or something about yourself, I wouldn't mind listening. It's the least I can do.

[ooc: feel free to assume zhongli has met your character earlier in the week if you want since this is friday! or they can meet this way i'm fine with either.]

SATURDAY

[slowpokey]

! Surprise Event

[slowpokey]

[ On Saturday morning, a strange contraption has been placed on the kitchen counter. This was not placed there by any of your housemates. How it got there is made evident, however, because a note accompanies this device, from the Sweet Home staff. ]

Greetings, Sweeties! Here's a little toy that you can mess around with, if you're down for some lighthearted fortune telling fun! All you have to do is turn the ball with the window facing downward, ask a yes or no question, and then turn it upward to see what the ball predicts. Just a little something to pass the time! ;)

Enjoy!
- Sweet Home Staff

[ While this seems a little...random, those that ask the 8 Ball questions will receive accurate answers. Use at your own discretion! ]

--

OOC: Hello, and welcome to the 8 Ball! This is an additional method for prompt generation. Feel free to reply to this if you'd like your character to react to the 8 Ball's appearance! If you'd like to ask it something, please comment to the "QUESTIONS" top level with a question, and I will respond with yes or no, with additional details as needed.

Again, please note that all answers are accurate. So, for example, if March asks, "Will my boba be good today?" and the 8 Ball says "No", her boba will taste terrible. Characters will not know right off the bat that the 8 Ball has 100% accuracy rate. If you ask it a question involving another character, please make sure both parties are in communication about this.
