Sabra La Tau

Who: Everyone
Where: The Arena
When: Messenger's Year 1, Day 1
What: Closing Time.

[Ptou reforms, sand solidifying into marble, the robes, tattered, become the tapestries of royalty and a thin, circular crown sits on his head.

He stares down at the ground a long moment, silent.]

Is that... it?

Is this what it's like?

FINAL DEPARTURE

If any links are misdirected or missing, PM Claude! ))

Who: All Ophi, traitor and loyal, all Blanks. Good ended DO NOT hear the call, but can come
Where: The Arena
When: :)
What: Ladies and Gentleman, we understand that you have come to bear witness to the sound of drums and bass.

[As you enter the arena today, it is like you have stepped into a gala floor. Round tables with black and white checkers are arranged in a semi circle around the southern corners of the room, leaving the vast majority of the marble floor open for dancing. Austere marble pillars break the expanse of the floor in neat rows, affording a couple a moment of privacy as needed. Against the east wall, a bar is set with several classy appetizers, and a single platter of ten shrimp next to a crystal punch bowl.

At the very end of the expansive room, a black marble stage has a band set up, and ready to play. Behind that, stretching up and up, is a regal black throne. No one sits on it yet.

The double doors close after the last of you with a certain finality.]

Welcome, my dear blanks. And welcome to your guests as well! Quite unexpected to see so many familiar faces again. It does bring back memories, doesn't it?

I do hope you'll find the festivities to your liking. I know we've had our differences in the past, but I've put quite a bit of effort into ensuring that everything goes perfectly. As long as everyone, and that does include the delightful guests you've brought along, stays on their best behavior, I think we'll get along quite nicely.

((OOC: WE BEGIN! First event begins in an hour 8PM EST.)

[ Mingle || HORN!!!! || Rules :) || PART TWO])

Who: Lyvus & visitors
Where: Lyvress
When: Day 302, or something
What: This is a nice post in which nice things are happening

[Or at least, ice and snow and timefuckery aside, we are having (unspecified meal) at (unspecified time) and this is family teatime and you will like it.]

Who: Lyvus and visitors
Where: Lyvress
When: Day 295, post-game
What: after game cuddlepile

[Four revived-but-not-completely-healed Corvi and a bitten-but-not-bleeding survived Lynx coming back from the Arena. Everything is terrible and everything hurts, but at least we got memories.]

Who: Royal & whoever
Where: Near Lyvus
When: Day 294, evening
What: De-hiatus ♥

[Well, well, look what Sabra spit up today. It's bloody and wet and dragging himself back to the Lyvress.]

Who: Persephone, Mitsuru, anyone else
Where: The fields
When: Day 291, morning
What: Plottings

[On her way back to Lyvus after spending the past few days with the Graces, she's been made over and her hair is in pigtails with shiny ribbons and they put her in a mini-skirt, all the girliness. Gosh, let's hope she didn't miss anything important while she was away.]

Who: Everyone
Where: Arena
When: Day 287, early morning (We knew you well, day 286)
What: Status effect game

[The bleating of goats once again bring you to the arena. A statue of a sleepy child greets you on the throne]

Come play once more, blanks.

[The area around the throne is a child's playground today, with a swing set, slides, a ball pit, and a container filled with water balloons. Tables lined with colored cloth (including Ophiuchus) are arranged at the foot of the throne. On each table, lies a single nerf gun with foam darts and a bowl of small round stones just enough for each member of the team. (All of them also in their respective team colors. The Ophi table has more nerf guns on it)]

Take a stone. Bring them to your team if you wish.

((Note 1: Guideline for deaging (Stolen from Mirror)
P.S: It is also possible to be physically deaged without being mentally deaged, if that is a thing you want to play with.
Note 2: Everyone's uniforms will fit their deaged/sexswapped/etc self.
Ping Parrot on IRC if you have questions))

Who: BLANKS
Where: THE ARENA
When: Day 286, Morning ??? WHO KNOWS
What: Game~

The call today was a fleeting, pleasant one. The blanks that followed may have been on their way to more important matters, or perhaps simply going about their daily gathering routines. In any case, once they arrived at the arena, they'd find some familiar faces. On the grass, surrounded by grazing sheep, the blanks slept, their expressions peaceful.

"My, my," the Judge thought aloud, her book closed. "I wonder if this is really a happy ending."

[THE SHEEP AND GRASS ARE CARDBOARD. Latecomers are A-OK, just hit me up on IRC (Ash). Sign-Up/Mingle/Rooms/Memories]

Who: Bunnycorn
Where: Dorms!1
When: Day 282, early afternoon
What: MEMORIES AND THINGS

[a lawyer with a hangover has his shirt back on! And is staring at his one memory berry]

[just one]

. . .did I eat my others while I was plastered. . .

Who: DelPavo + Visitors
Where: Geardorm
When: Day 282, morning
What: Memories

[HEY GUYS ARE YOU STILL HUNGOVER? Better perk up because we brought home memories \o/]

Who:  Rapunzel and whoever
Where:  By the lake
When: Day 278, afternoon
What: Chess lessons

[Anybody who has seen Rapunzel by the lake is surely used to the sight of her surrounded by lizards. What's new today is the clearly handmade chess set she is showing them, sitting cross legged and picking each piece in turn as she paints the final details. The lizards are listening with rapt attention.]

...can only move one space at a time, and if you lose the King it's game over so you have to protect him. This piece goes next to it, it's called the Bishop. The Bishop can move any spaces it wants but it can only go diagonally- Across these squares, like this.

Who: Lyvus & visitors
Where: Lyvus
When: Day 275, noon
What: Lunch & memories!

[It's lunchtime! And Lynx, at least, has new memories to consider :U man didn't I just have to shotgun four the other day, this is not cool]

I should probably not put it off this time . . .

Ah—how was the game for everyone?

Who: Bunnycorn and whoever
Where: Bathsss
When: Day 274, morning
What: DOWN TIME...in the morning...

[and then bunnycorn decided to picnic at the baths. Off to the side, far enough not to get wet, are pieces of fruit and chocolate, up for grabs before any squidrat gets them]

[WE CHILLIN'. or just trying to relax due to hangovers. same difference]

Who: Whoever
Where: The Arena
When: Day 273, after the game
What:

HAHAHA, WHAT THE FUCK WOULD YOU EVEN DO WITHOUT ME, YOU SAD LITTLE DWEEB?

[Soldier is laughing, the bar is fully stocked, and there are still a few stray corgi puppies running around.]

Who: DelPavo (and later Pyxis)
Where: Geardorm (and later Pyxis)
When: Day 271, late afternoon
What: Pie party (and later lizard shennanigans)

[Knocking on the door to DelPavo with her foot because her arms are too full of all the ingredients from the minigame]

Hey, it's Rapunzel! Open up.

Who: Anyone
Where: The DelPavo cove
When: Day 269, noon
What: Wading home

[If she weren't clutching her hand to her head in the international sign for 'I need asprin', she'd probably, actually, look just the same as she did when you last saw her.]

More than a week. Less than two . . . still no bridge. Less than two. It had to be going forward, didn't it? More than eight, but up to thirteen . . .

Who: Lyvus
Where: Lyvus
When: Day 266, late morning
What: Memories

Is anybody else concerned that some of us won more than one memory this game?

Who: Lelouch's daycare . . .
Where: Lyvus
When: Day 265, night
What: Sleepover :x

[after a long day, presumably with one or the other of you running someone ragged at any given moment, but theoretically full of games if Euphy at least had her way . . .]

[thanks to gallant efforts (and by that I mostly mean Lelouch got the Assistant to do it), Lyvus has been turned into a big square of mattresses piled with all of their pillows and blankets, set up near the fireplace! it is pretty comfy business. there are also sweets thanks to a combined team ingredient effort—some warm sweet fruit-tasting drink and soft cookie approximations]

Everyone's expected to go to sleep when we turn the lights out in an hour or two, but before that, I did promise some stories. Does anyone have anything they want to hear?

[---> zz pile on Lyvus]

Who: Delpavo, anyone
Where: Geardorm
When: Day 265
What: OPPOSITE DAY

[Adults are children, men are women, children are adults, someone's a cat, and meals are suddenly extremely awkward.]

So I guess we just wait it out...

Who: Lyvus & visitors
Where: Outside Lyvress
When: Day 265, morning
What: Lelouch's teammates going missing is a severe interruption to his morning routine and he highly suspects they have been called to a game that he has missed and he is going to do laundry in the river and fret a lot and this way he can see if they come home and—
