The Exam: IC Community

Where there were five teams, there are now but two. Maybe this game will never end and then we'll never find out what awaits us next. Then I'll never have to leave the waffles behind.

[Emma Frost]
You've made it all the way as the last woman standing from Purple Block. Well done! How does it feel? Does that sound like a tribal council question?

This isn't real

this can't be real

Is this real?

What the hell?

I have some questions regarding the cosmetics provided in our bathrooms. I understand the general concept, and I have enough painting experience to perhaps figure some techniques out on my own. Except visual alterations to the face to create the appearance of a new identity is causing me some hesitations, because I've never had much desire to be different than how I was designed. I'm not certain what the end result is meant to be or how to begin.

I've noticed that each place we've gone has provided clothing of widely different styles to match the setting. And I've noticed that these makeup styles have a wide range of variety as well, not just by era. I think the overall approach is to create a look that is harmonious between the outfit and the face, but I admit I'm simply at a loss.

Any guidance or advice would be appreciated.

[Purple Block]
I want to thank our volunteers again. Even though our team has been absorbed by another, you still have our continued support in the upcoming challenges.

I also noticed that our block is at capacity, and we've had new people join us. I don't intend to bother anyone, but if anyone wants to make any introductions or ask any questions of me, feel free to do so.

[Androids]
I may have overestimated how many flowers I needed for these vases. If any of you are interested in the leftovers, I really wouldn't want them to go to waste.

Obviously we didn't want to lose, but I didn't want any division to come from having to vote someone out. I'll be cheering on the rest of you as the game progresses.

ONCE AGAIN I am reporting to you LIVE from the TRIBAL COUNCIL, where I mysteriously know the results of the day's events because people think it's funny when I say things.

Tonight, Purple Tribe had to eliminate one of its members, after losing this afternoon's whatever the task was.

Once the votes are read, the decision is final. I'll go get the votes.


Vote One is for...

Vote Two is for...

Vote Three is for...

( The SECOND Person Voted Out of Survivor:Exam Edition is... )

I have drawings of everyone covered in mud. This has been entertaining at least. You want yours? Offer me something.

WHO: Rey and Klaus
WHAT: Post Survivor challenge conversation

( Being here, in this place, had given her time and she intended to use it wisely. )

WHO: Allison & Klaus
WHAT: Kicking off sobriety

( Yeah, dad didn't exactly equip us with coping skills. )

Since everyone is suddenly so concerned with who sold out people for food. Here's the list. Might I remind everyone that the prison offered better, more consistent food and medicine than the ration boxes and for some of you it meant those who were Yulelagged did better than those of you who weren't.

Dolores Abernathy sold out Lucifer Morningstar
Rose O'Hara sold out Charlie Mills
Ava Starr sold out Peter Parker, Peggy Carter, Richie Tozier
Victor von Doom sold out Ronan Lynch
Kylo Ren sold out Lucifer Morningstar
Luther Hargreeves sold out Lucifer Morningstar, Klaus Hargreeves
Loki Laufeyson sold out Wade Wilson
Kobik sold out Opal
Five sold out Opal
Natalia Romanova sold out Meg McCaffey
Klaus Hargreeves sold out Peter Parker
Steve Rogers sold out Tony Stark
Peter Parker sold out Tony Stark
Markus sold out Peter Parker, Connor
Bucky Barnes sold out Steve Rogers

Oh, man! There are some snacks I really miss! Which, to be fair, is really like all snacks, I'm pretty predictable! :)))

So now I want to hear about your favorites! Especially if we're not from the same universe, or, similar ones. Which is crazy! But even if we are, I still want to hear about it.

I'll start. I have a wide range of snack preferences but I will probably have to give the temporary edge to Sour Patch Kids. The blue raspberry ones. And Peeps--the pumpkins or the bunnies.

It is interesting that whoever has chosen to keep us here allowed such amenities as an art studio. But I am wary of experimental settings that appear to have good features on the surface.

In case anyone hasn't seen it yet - There's a pet store here.  Looking at adorable animals is a very nice change from horrifying pasts, scary futures and knife fights the general craziness of all of this. 

[Yuuri]

We still want to get a dog, right?  You should join me here and see them.  Unless you're busy practicing survivor skills?

These clothes we've been provided with are a poor excuse for humor.

Honestly, you would think a break would be in order, but it seems the universe has other plans. What is going on?

[Oh la la Baguette]
Does anyone have a concept of what "Survivor" is and what it entails? The only information I've gathered is that in one world it's a series on television that somehow involved a crazy naked man, and that a newcomer reports that a similar event from his home involves murdering children for entertainment.

I was hoping maybe we could figure out more details to better prepare our volunteers, or consider revoking their names if this is something to be concerned with. I will not blame anyone for backing out if they are uncomfortable with the premise. Otherwise, are there any sorts of survival skills that we need brushing up on?

[Connor]
So. I... were you intending to tell me?

[Ash]
Were you ever successful in getting it working?

I sincerely hope that we're using the Survivor rules are the TV Show. Because if this is a fight to the death, I'm pretty sure we already know which block is going to win it.

[Steve Rogers]

I'd hate for this to be misconstrued as an indication that I'm concerned, or anything.

But are you all right?

Alright, that last post is a mess and my brain can't handle it right now. Let's sort this out by voting? Great!

TEAM NAME - choose one
Byzantium
Oh la la baguette

TEAM LEADER - choose one
Dolores
Clarke

For volunteers we currently have: Gansey, Emma and myself but I am not married to the idea if someone else is really eager to step up or doesn't trust me while I'm detoxing.

What is the leader going to lead? We don't know. Could be a knife fight, could be the adventure in the next room, could be a hike through a forest we don't yet know exists here. Who can tell?

What are you volunteering for? Maybe as a volcanic sacrifice? Maybe to complete a task? Maybe to fight off more Krampus demons? I really can't say and I make no promises.

So... first a green block and now a purple block. I feel like somebody's trying to collect all colours of the rainbow.

I also have zero fucking idea of what's going on around here but that's nothing new.

I need a cigarette and a drink.

Who wants to go in the scuba tunnels?

[Block Four]
Guess we better do this, huh? Unless we have a surplus of volunteers, I'm nominating myself. Volunteering myself?

We just need to make sure we have a fabulous name to go along with all of the purple we've been blessed with.

[Stargreeves]
The band is back together, just like old times.

[Holtzmann]
I'm sorry I stole your roommate. Are we still friends?

Good to know that ghoul of an interior decorator my grandfather once hired kept getting work after we let him go. Color-blocking was a mistake in the seventies and it hasn't improved with age.

Shitty design choices aside, what the fuck?

As far as places to end up after yet another mystery door, this doesn't seem so bad. It's certainly nice to have my things.

[Hargreeves]
I guess we didn't all choose the same answers? Everyone still around?

[Starrgreeves]
I am considering sobriety. Which is going to be difficult given that every single thing I had stashed seems to have shown up here. But also, I have Dave's dog tags now. I've missed them more than I can say.

[Jordan]
There are art supplies here.
