Sabra La Tau

U-uhm. Cygnus w-won, I guess . . .


[there are now three doors under her skirt, one leading to each of the rooms. The walls of the last room are slowly receding.]

Who: Everyone
Where: Arena
When: Day 142, early afternoon
What:

[It's laughter that calls the Blanks to the Arena today- or- is it sobbing? It's a little hard to tell.

The form sitting on the throne is unfamiliar, and difficult to truly call humanoid. The limbs are all too long, unsettlingly so, even without their skeletal thinness. She has a face that must have been pretty one, but now it's sunken, hollow, and pock-marked. She is clothed in a great white moth-eaten petticoat, which hangs off her thin frame. Though the statue is still, there seems to be some strange motion about her, as if her skin itself was moving. Only upon closer inspection is it clear that the pock-marks on her skin are terapede nests. The movement of her dress is from the moths inside- millions of them, maybe more, slowly chewing at and destroying her clothes. As they crawl and chew, their refuse is drifting our from the bottom, quickly forming a thin carpet of filth beneath her.]




He's g-gone. He's gone he's gone. It's j-just, one. Ahaha. Heh. Only one. One Judge, alone with the Blanks. Is this r-really what you wanted? Don't worry, b-babe, y-you'll do fine. You'll- aheh- you'll k-knock 'em dead. You fuckers. You're going to pay for that.

Who: Some guy, passersby
Where: Hydra
When: Day 142, noon
What: Newbie on the loose

[In the Hydra common room right now, a boy is reading the message next to the doors. Or squinting at it in an attempt to read it, anyway.]

...this isn't very reassuring...

Who: Hydracula, passersby
Where: In and around the angerdome
When: Day 141, Evening
What: New kiddd up and out of his room


Um-- hello? I don't mean to intrude or anything, but...

Who: Hydracula and visitors
Where: The ANGERDOME
When: Day 132, Late evening
What: Coldpile and memories!

[By the point that all the memories are laid down on the table, it is a fairly good bet that all the blankets have been stripped from every bed in the angerdome and possibly those of Vulpecula to wrap around the soggy, wet Hydraculans.

The shark, for his part, has gotten as close to the kitchen fire as possible without being IN it, and arguably sharing his space with the cave corgi.]

You guys can do what you want. M'not moving.

Who: Everyone!
Where: Arena
When: Day 132, evening
What: Game time!

[The Call to the Arena today is the simple sound of hammer on metal. Rhythmic, tireless it's almost a marching tune to those who happened to hear and follow it.

When you enter the Arena bare land quickly gives way to drifts of snow and barren, snow-striped trees. The further you go in, the deeper and deeper the snow gets. By the time you can make out the broad, grinning statue on the throne between gusts of snow laden wind, the snow chest-deep on most.

In the center, at the statues feet are two very welcome things at this point: Fur wraps of some unknown white animal large enough to drape around you and a metal pot of hot chocolate and several ceramic cups.]

HA HA HA! Bit of an effort wasn't it? I had to get your blood pumping for this one! Everyone warmed up?

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.]

Who: Hydracula
Where: Area near Hydracula's dorms, probably moving inside
When: Day 122, noonish (after Soldier's Maid RPG)
What: Memory antics

[is carrying Vulpecula's memory berries back to the dorms]

Hey, we won!

[sounds a bit hoarse]

Who: Hydracula, anyone
Where: THE ANGERDOME
When: Day 121, early evening
What: Memories and other hilarity

[Considering memory berry... considering dog gnawing on jerky.]

I wonder what would happen if Intossitura ate one.

I mean, hypothetically.

Who: Everyone
Where: The Arena
When: Day 121, Evening
What: Game!!1

[There is that vaguely familiar pull to come towards the arena today, a low barely audible melody that calls you to it, and when you arrive the lights are dimmed and there is a mansion that most of you probably have seen before. Today there are no doors at the front though, and instead there is just one small door, standing slightly ajar, on the side of the building. If you take a peek through it, all you can see are a pair of completely white stairs descending down into a seemingly empty room in the same colour. The headless statue is present as before.]

Today we will play a simple game…

Who: Hydra, Interlopers
Where: Hydracula territory
When: Day 120, Morning
What: Puppy training

[Hydra is out in force today! They're milling about between Hydra and Vulpecula dorms fussing over a runty looking cave corgi pup, occasionally speaking or gesturing emphatically at it. Scowl seems especially irritated.]

He's ignoring me.

Who: Any
Where: By the Hydracula area
When: Day 114, midday
What:

[You may be going to the newly reopened lake to wonder about the cinder where the fence was, or never noticed there was one in the first place and just be out for some tasty fish and derpy lizards.

Or you may even be stopping by the Hydracula area, but for whatever reason you're out, a few Hydra are returning with a squirming barking demonthing wrapped up in a makeshift bag made of stitched up Hydra uniforms.

It's hard to tell if the blood is from old games or from any number of new looking bite marks and lacerations, really.

...

Oddly they DO look pleased with themselves, if not triumphant.]

Almost back. This thing'll be cake from here...

Who: Anyone
Where: The Arena
When: Day 112, morning
What: Game 76

[Persona presides over the Arena today, but the usual doors, couches, and unconscious people are conspicuously absent. The moment you step into the Arena, you feel strange. Not like yourself. And there's another change...]

[You can suddenly see everyone's titles, and your own, as clearly as if they had been there all along. However, something seems a little off...]

Is a person born or made? What impact does the way that others perceive us influence the selves deep down in our hearts? And what if you were to look through the eyes of another? What do you think you'll learn?

((List of new titles

Who: Everyone
Where: Everywhere
When: Day 111, Late Morning
What: Game!!1

[The lights don’t seem quite as bright as they usually are in the arena today. The dimmed lights make it impossible to see far into the arena, but even so the grand Victorian mansion taking up the centre of it would be difficult to miss. It looks like it could have seen better days, the paint flaking off and a few of the glass panes of the windows broken. The curtains are all drawn on the first of the three floors, making it neigh impossible to take a peek inside. The front of the mansion is adorned with six doors in a row though, each door’s frame painted in two colours, one door for every pair of partner teams.]

[Behind the mansion, on top of the throne, sits a new statue in complete silence. And despite the lack of head, you might feel as if you’re being closely watched by it.]

[Of course, once you make your way into the arena you might care about neither of the things mentioned above, because sitting in a circle are eleven familiar shapes, the twelfth shape being a pair of Groucho Marx glasses. If you look closely enough you can see how they are still breathing, if very faintly. And floating above each and everyone of them, well out of reach from you, is a tiny rag doll replica of the unconscious blank (or little dollsized glasses in case of Dingbatticus).]
