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?

Who: Hydra and compatriots!
Where: Unexplored city!
When: Day 301, early afternoon
What: LET'S FIND SOME IMMORTAL TO KILL!!

[There's a blinding array of teams gathered on today's outing. All day-glo yellow and pink and green. And also that Pyxis loser.]

This is further than I've been before . . . We should keep our eyes open from here out.

WHEN: DAY 300, MORNING
WHAT:

[Soldier's call is loud and annoying as usual, but there does seem to be one problem today: The bar is not so well-stocked. In fact, there's only beer on tap, and it's awfully sour...]

HAPPY DAY 300 MOTHERFUCKERS!!

Who: Everyone
Where: Everywhere
When: Day 297, morning
What: Man there sure are Sabra-wide random fucking effects!

[REACT]

Who: Anyone
Where: Arena
When: Day 296, noon
What: A game

[The bleating of goats lead you to the arena once again. The weathered and beaten statue of a boy sits on the throne. Chin resting on his hands and elbows on his knees.

There are 8 platforms - wide enough for members of each partner team - arranged in front of the throne; the carpets are in the colors of each partner team The entrance to each are roped off for now.]

Play with me.

[For once, weapons are not transformed into their plastic or harmless counterparts nor are curses censored.]

Who: Santa and whoever
Where: EVERYWHERE
When: Day 293, afternoon
What: bidding farewell to dignity, and also kisses.

[After finally getting some sleep, Santa decided it's time to finally get done with a certain mission he was given days ago. And so, on this merry afternoon, he is wearing this fantastic outfit, ready to bid farewell to his dignity forever and visit dorms. You can see him walking around in this.]

Ugh... This pretty fucking embarrassing.

((feel free to use for your own mingle needs as well)

Who: Anyone
Where: Your dreams . . . oops.
When: Day 292/293, overnight
What:


Ah, excuse me. Sorry, sorry, just passing through. Don't mind me!





. . . that's a good look for you by the way!

Who: Orion, Hydra, Apus and a lone Ex-Ophiuchus
Where: Gathering south of the ruins
When: Day 292-293, Curfew hours
What:

[Some minutes ago, curfew fell, the dampening darkness seeming deeper and thicker than it ever has. And one by one, outside of a few dorms, circles of small yellow lights flickered into existence, and each made their way to the rocks and fallen pillars that marked the front guards to the silent ruins of the Sacred City. As each catch sight of each other and puddle together, a young kid in black, bearing no light himself, glances over at Mitsuru, and then back at the group.]

... Apus? Hmm.

I assume we all know the plan?

Who: Apus, Santa, ?
Where: Apus
When: Day 290, late afternoon
What: ...A visitor?

*it is a quiet day at the Apus dormitory, the type of day where no one would expect any unexpected callers outside the front door. And yet...*

Who: The Gentleman, anyone
Where: Sitting on top of Apus
When: Day 288, evening
What: Chilling, RIGHT OUT IN THE OPEN

[A dapper, elderly man sits on the edge of the Apus dorms roof. He doesn't seem overly remarkable past his presence... a well tended hat and immaculate suit, polished dress shoes... but there's something about him that ... makes him hard to look directly AT.

He has a rather fancy, bottled beer sitting next to him, and is idly pulling on a fishing pole now and then. The line is... down into the hole that swallowed Cygnus.

He's humming a rather cheerful ditty, as if it was a fine day for fishing.]

Who: Anyone
Where: Arena
When: Day 288, evening
What: Game time~

[Today the call takes the form of a song. It's hard to make out the words but the tune resembles a child's nursery rhyme. The sound of that soft voice is almost familiar, one the very edge of your memory....

As the arena fills with blanks, the song gives way to Haunted's delighted laughter.]

Are you afraid, blanks?

Who: Anyone
Where: Mushwood forest
When: Day 288, early morning
What: If a tree falls in the forest, does it make a sound?


[A thunderous crack whips through the forest this day, audible even beyond the river. The rotting trunk finally succumbing to the weight of its great dead cap. The cracking noise continues as it falls, ending with a burst of wind and a loud crash. There is a second... and then a third crash as other dead tallcaps collapse with it.

As the forest settles into its new arrangement, silence reigns again...]


No, no, no, no, no, NO! Stand up! Get up! Grow! Obey! Return!

[Until a child begins to shriek in anger.]

((OOC: Judge sub-plot event. I'll be tagging and playing with this until tomorrow or so. The status effect game will continue and will end at the stated time. Ping Parrot in chan if you have any questions.))

((EDIT: NAP TIME. I WILL BE BACK. BACK))

Who: those who would bathe
Where: the baths
When: Day 287
What: bathing

*folks are age changed and genderswapped and sometimes animals, what better time to show off in the bath?*

Who: Ash, any
Where: Up the northeastern path
When: Day 285, evening
What: :)

[It's a calm evening, the great, blind dragon lays curled around her clutch of eggs mingled in with an Ophiuchus and various pokemon. The bones of the meal - some of it roasted for that strange child that can't eat raw raptor as well - strewn around them.

In fact, it would be the most pleasant environment for Ash and Pikachu to join in on the nap with the mamadragon when...

Something behind him twitches.]

Who: Whoever
Where: in and around Apus
When: Day 284, morning
What: New teammate crashin' in

[If you're around Apus today, you might notice a girl walking about. Occasionally, she'd bring out the tube to look at it and mutter to herself.]

She says to trust my intuition, but my intuition doesn't exactly tell me where to start...

[then her stomach growls]

...and I think I'm getting hungry.

Who: Everyone
Where: The Arena
When: Day 280, morning
What: :) :) :)!!

[As soon as your torches relight -- or slightly before, is that even possible? -- Mirror's call tugs you out of your beds and towards the arena. For those of you who feel it, it's unusually persistent and difficult to resist today. Like a glass hook caught around your legs, pulling you along without caring much about your feelings on the matter.

Mirror's statue perches on her throne, the usual silver of her statue subtly altered. Glassy, almost translucent in areas, but still deeply reflective. More disturbing still is the layout in the arena today: a parody of the Good End celebrations you've seen for your teammates, with tall glass boxes replacing team banners and tables (marked in team colors) filled with nothing but plates of glass shards and bottles of clear vodka.

Except for Bunnycorn's table. They get (alcoholic) punch and nachos.]

Are you all here yet? I hope so. This is going to be fun.

[Mingle | Columns | Rules | Endgame | Memories]

Who: Everyone around
Where: At the base of the crazypaths leading up to the Pyxis Treehouse.
When: Day 275, right after the Kid's game
What: Newbie Pyxis sucks at climbing. (Feel free to use as a general mingle!)


[Having taken his memory (mostly out of curiosity) and feeling really drained after his first game, Pyxis' skinny new kid is intent on getting back to the dorms so he can take a nice, loooong nap.


............If he can only figure out how to get back up there]

Who: Trixie, Hakuba, anyone else
Where: near Monsterhunter
When: Day 273, evening
What: building things!!

*Trixie and Hakuba are in what appears to be a very small bathtub together. Doing things*

Who: Everyone
Where: The Arena
When: Day 273, Afternoon
What: :)

[The arena has been dimly lit with torches that leave much of the area dark. Only a patch to the base of the Judge's statue has been lit, and from there eight more paths stretch out to doors that have been lit with colored torches according to each set of partner teams. Game Master's statue is seated on the throne, head turned beneath the hood to watch the incoming blanks.

—and then some dick started blowing a vuvuzela.]

Soldier!! You're going to ruin my game!
