Who: All the pretty boys and girls~
Where: Center ring~
When: Day 126, late night
What: A real party

[The Arena is all decked out today in festive bright colors. There is a canopy of red and yellow fabric hanging above you as you enter, like the roof of a giant tent. Cheerful music is playing. Everything smells of cotton candy and rot.]

[Trickster is laughing.]

((Roll call!
Mingle

))

Who: Anyone.
Where: Bunnycorn, Cephrion, Pygnus, and Pavinus/Delphavo? in this order, it's likely.

[There is a Vulpecula walking purposefully up to these locations. It's obviously a serious matter]

Who: Orion + anyone
Where: Orion dorms
When: Day 125, evening.
What: Chilling out at Orion. also, fruit.

[There is an Orion captain at the table tonight, looking pretty well fried. He's been out of it more or less all day, hence why the fruit he got from Ophi initially ended up in his room rather than on the table. But now there's a nice little array of bananas and apples set out; he's attempting to cut one of said apples with his knife.]

I could really use a drink at this point.

WHO: YOU
WHERE: THE ARENA
WHEN: DAY 125, MORNING
WHAT: GAAAAAAME

[The Arena is set up like your typical Heart Game today, with Mao, Almaz, Apollo, and Slick on the usual couches, and a big black door in front of the statue.

SHIT, IS IT MORNING ALREADY? PERSONA WAS GOING TO RUN THIS GAME, SEE, BUT SHE HAD THIS THING, HAD TO WASH HER HAIR TODAY OR SOMETHING, SO I'M FILLING IN LIKE THE CLASSY-ASS CHIVALROUS MOTHERFUCKER I AM.

ANYWAY SHE EXPLAINED IT TO ME BUT HER IDEA WAS BORING. WHO THE HELL CARES WHAT'S IN YOUR HEARTS? THAT AND I DON'T REALLY KNOW HOW TO GET INTO THEM IN A WAY OTHER THAN FATAL PUNCTURE WOUND. SO LET'S DO THIS SHIT SOLDIER-STYLE!

When: Day 124, noon
What: Entertaining ourselves


[Two newish Ophiuchus members are sitting by a rocky outcropping with a table and a sign:

Tasing for food.

Besides them are a basket of apples and bananas. Being arranged in an obscene fashion. Do you approach?]

edit: Internet issues for Shinra + bedtime for Aeon = continued antics tomorrow!

Who: Anyone, really
Where: The Arena
When: Day 123, late morning
What: Game 83

[Familiar butterflies, and a soft scent of flowers draw everyone to the Arena. Where Beauty is on the statue. Today the 'Arena' is truly living up to it's name. While the characteristic lush grass carpets the ground, several roman style bleachers rise up in a semi-circle around an open area. Among the seats are bowls of popcorn.

Away from the makeshift arena, there are a few video terminals.]

Good morning, every one.

This game make some preparation for you to understand, so I'll be announcing things early to allow you the chance to ask questions.

You will be playing a comedy game. Teams will play games in groups of two, taking their place in front of the audience. There are various types of games, but none of them are violent, I assure you. The goal is to be funny, and have fun. Your scene will be completed after an alloted amount of time, or when I say so.

There are other Judges here today. They'll be watching your performances and voting for which teams have done the best. The six winning teams from the first round will go against each other in the second round, and the winning teams from that round will receive their memories.

Provided is a list of the games you play, along with brief descriptions.

Keep in mind that while teams are playing against each other, you must play with each other to make the scene work. If the goal of a scene is to make one player guess what you are talking about, making it too obvious will not be very interesting.

Videos have been provided for a few of these games, to give you an idea of how they are played. But do not worry about performing exactly the same as the actors. It is your own unique knowledge, viewpoints, and personality which will make this game fun for everyone.

For now, familiarize yourself with the various games. What game you will be play, and what teams you will play against, will be announced shortly.

Also, please sign in. I will try to fit games to people of people willing to play per each team.

((Yes kids, we are playing Whose Line Is It Anyway. Mingle will still go for an hour, but providing everything NOW to give you a chance to watch the videos if you aren't familiar with the games. THAT SAID, characters are not expected or required to play the games perfectly. Beauty will buzz them if they start to go too far out of bounds. Not sure exactly how long each round will go, but I'm thinking an hour and a half max. The first six rounds WILL play at the same time OOCly, even though ICly you may assume they go one after another, so Blanks can watch other's performances.

Also note I can't GUARANTEE that every character signed up will get to play, but I will do my absolute best to make sure everyone gets to play with at least one character. Feel free to sign up both!

FINALLY, Judges are encouraged to hang around in the mingle, watch the performances, and vote for one team or the other as the winner once it's done.))

Who: Agito, Ikki, ANYONE
Where: All over the place
When: Day 122, late morning
What: What is the first thing an A-Tard will do when getting A-T again? Find the next nearest A-Tard to pick a fight with.

[This morning, there is a loud, strange battle going on between two teens wearing strange, wheeled footwear and Hydra green and Pyxis red uniforms. Falling rock and the unusual if not downright rare sound of WIND rushing past the dorms may have roused you from your dorms in time to see one get nailed in the face, or the other get knocked back HARD into one of the cave's rock face, or watch a bizarre, aerial game of tag near the ceiling, zigzagging along the stalactites and using drip formations as springboards to stay up high.

It's hard to tell if they're trying to kill each other or having fun.

It could be both.

Do you interrupt?]

Who: Whoever
Where: Cepheus garden
When: Day 119, afternoon
What: Motherfuckin' gardening

Oh delicious....potatoes. ... ... ...

Fuck, I want an apple.

Who: Nebula, Orion, whoever
Where: Near by the Orion dorm
When: Morning 119
What: Dehiatus/Back from Veiled

[If you are up this morning, you might notice a door of shadow opening up by the Orion dorm and their newest blank walking out of the door with a bamboo steamer.

...Guess that explains why he's been missing these past few days]

Who: Anyone
Where: The Arena
When: Day 117, evening
What: The going-away party of Gaius Octavian

[Today in the arena, a very particular Call was given out, heard by any outside, and those inside who might have been listening.. It is a strange octave, almost regal, with the deep sound of brass horns and cadence of drums. As one gets closer, they might hear something a bit like winds, but of a strange harmony that doesn't match any instrument a Blank may have remembered. Strings on a slightly different chord and pitch, the range dancing at a joyous counterpoint to the solemn, majestic trumpets.

Those who have heard, one in particular, and all those following the unique sound, will find the Arena unusually appointed. Banners of all teams colors stretch overhead, red taking the pinnacle spot.

Without the trappings of a game, what seems to be laid out is a long table, a multitude of chairs and covered plates sitting upon table cloth of Pyxis red and Cygnus pink. The music seems to come from all around, and the general area before the tables seems to be open, inviting for those inclined to dance. There is a less austere table, far to the back, which seems to have simple snacks, one single platter of fruit, and some juices and wines.

In the throne, presiding over it all is the statue of the King, expression thoughtful as it overlooks the festivities.]

Who: ever.
Where: The arena.
When: Day 117, midafternoon
What: Game 79.

A soft whispery flute sounds throughout Sabra, signaling blanks to the arena. As you enter the Arena, a possibly familiar scent reaches your nose as you step onto the carpets and your palms tingle. You feel…different.

Today, Veiled sits on the throne silently. In her lap is not any musical instrument, but a deck of cards. If you look closely at the background, a net of gold decorates it, but with a roiling undertone…

Who: Claude and friends!
Where: Outside of Cepheus
When: Day 117
What:

Awright! You've got some time anyway! Say your goodbyes, knowing that while the Crowbar of Fate has wedged in there to apply just the right amount of pressure to separate the boards without unduly bending the nails so that they can't be reused. I mean we've got a budget to keep. Is exerting its inexorable pressure!

IT IS ONLY SO THAT ONE MAY RETURN! STRONGER, WEATHERPROOFED, and with a nice bit of lacquer finish.

Who: Blanks!
Where: The Arena!
When: Day 117, late morning
What: All Blank Pokemon Trainers Report to the Arena!! /bullhorn

[AT SAID Arena, dozens upon dozens of Beedrill have just finished being bandaged up. They probably think y'all suck, but are no threat :[ ]

[also there is a small shoddy stage-like set up on a flat rock, with one crappy spotlight and a microphone]

Okay guys, I hope you all enjoyed the day with your Partners! Say your goodbyes and return their pokeballs to the box...labeled Pokeballs, I guess!

--oh, and one more thing! Everyone tell the other blanks what ya learned from your Pokemon. Ya can use that microphone thing right there. That's super important!

((YALL HAVE AN HOUR and I will pick winners and prizes :|b]

Who: Whoever
Where: By the lake
When: Day 116, evening
What: POKEYMANS

[Lucky, having taken a momentary breather from the Hydracula Hive of Codependence (but not too far away), is diligently training her Pokemon partner.]

WOULD YOU JUST DO SOMETHING ALREADY!?

Who: Kieran, Ushahin, whoever else
Where: in the common areas, heading back from the direction of the Pillar
When: Day 115, evening
What: dehiatus

[from the direction of the tunnels leading to the pillar, two figures emerge. they're having a conversation--or rather, the slightly shorter one is talking while the slightly taller one grunts an occasional answer. both are looking a little ragged around the edges. ushahin looks like he's spent the past while wandering the caves--wonder why! kieran mostly just looks tired.

one of them obviously needs to be rescued from the other.]

Who? Anybody
Where? The Arena
When? Day 115, evening
What? I wonder...

[Man, didn't you just see this Judge? Well, today's game is Persona again, and she appears to be back to her usual modus operandi - unconscious people in black chairs. Today's victims are Excel, Kaito, Nora, Kohaku, Almaz, and Tailmon. Rather than the usual doors with colored assignments, however, there's simply one enormous black door, standing before the statue.]

Did you know that a heart is only as strong as its weakest link? That hidden in the darkness of cracks and corners, there are fears and insecurities the heart would be better off without? If I told you that you are to kill a piece of the heart today, something with real presence, such as a face and a voice... how would you respond? Would you forfeit the Game? Or would you make an attempt to improve the heart by rooting out and destroying a source of weakness?

Who: Slick and POTENTIAL VICTIMS
Where: No where very public
When: Day 115, late morning
What: FRIENDLY, HARMLESS CONVERSATION

*Ophiuchus on patrol, but around the outskirts of the dorm common areas and lakes, caves and routes that you may come by for one reason or another, but aren't high traffic. His skin is unusually dark today, crosses are on his forehead and a thick, deep one appears to have been cut into his throat at some point. He's calmly spinning a cane around.*


((OOC: Ticky got orders to TORTURE someone. While he'll only pick one person, it will be determined by criteria I can't really explain. SO IF YOU COMMENT TO THIS POST you are agreeing to whatever psychological or physical damage I feel like inflicting on your character. Will not result in death but will PROBABLY result in "I need a Surgeon" levels of physical trauma and disablement, also not good for people with gore or sadism squicks. I WILL SAY that Lacerta, Hydra, Monoceros and Canis are all safe.))
