Who: Anyone
Where: Anywhere
When: Day 287
What: Kid game antics!

*General post for any/all status effect antics that don't fit anywhere else. /o/*

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: a blank (tm), his team (canis) and anyone who might have a reason to be around that area.
Where: Canis dorms
When: Day 286, morning!
What: someone is waking up in Canis?!
---

[ there's the sound of tearing fabric from inside one of the unoccupied rooms... a few minutes before a new blank stumbles out with the newly torn strip of fabric half tied around his right eye. ]

Who: Honor, Sion, etc.
Where: The Fields (and various places before and after)
When: Day 283, an hour before curfew...
What: Absolute Destiny Apocalypse A duel, that one party wasn't planning on attending.

[well, this is a horrible end to a horrible day]

Who: Beardog (and whoever)
Where: Canis
When: Day 283, afternoon
What: Memories, tea and cursing GM...

What did we even do to get you put into that game?

Who: Everyone
Where: The Arena
When: Day 283, Bright and goddamn early
What: :) :) :)

[There's that pull again; a sharp, icy tug at the pit of your gut. It feels as though it would be unwise to resist it.

The set up is much the same as yesterday. The lights are still dim, and shadows fall where none should. Flickers of motion follow the blanks all the way to the small circle of buildings at the throne's base; the doors are currently still shut tight.

Game Master's statue watches the blank's approach from beneath his hood.]

Welcome again, poor souls. Are you ready to begin anew?

As with yesterday, coming late and leaving early is absolutely acceptable. Just sign in so I can keep tabs on scoring easier :|b Also this is a list of people who have been missing since this game began.]

Who: Everyone
Where: The Arena
When: Day 282, Late Afternoon
What: A game :)

[The pull today is insistent and excited, if soul-chilling as is usual for Game Master. Someone's eager to get started on whatever he has planned, it seems. The Arena, when blanks arrive, is also dimly lit as usual as well. However, something about the lighting seems a bit . . . odd. Shadows falling where there should be none, flickers of movement just at the boundaries of your vision.

Even stranger is the small circle buildings waiting at the foot of the throne when blanks first reach it. It isn't as though the buildings are strange in and of themselves, but there are only three of them. A rather unorthodox number considering the number of all the team, and even the paired partner sets.

In the center of the three buildings are a number of computer writing tablets.

Game Master sits in the throne, face hidden from view beneath his ever present hood.]

Welcome to you, blanks. Welcome, new and old alike back to this stadium of despair and triumph. Will you, I wonder, enjoy the game I have prepared for you today? Will you delight and take pride in the challenges conquered? Or will you, perhaps, despair and curse my name as you often have before?

Let us find out together, you blanks.

What:

[Oh no, not another game! The call isn't insistent in the same way as the last one, but it's definitely loud enough that you're probably not going to be able to go back to sleep. On the bright side, considering said call is a non-stop drum solo with the occasional burst of incoherently-slurred rap lyrics, you've got a good guess as to which Judge it is.]

BEER! TATTOOS! BEER AND TATTOOS. YOU HAVE UNTIL I FINISH MY DRUM SOLO! AND THAT'LL BE A FEW HOURS SO YOU CAN TAKE IT HOME TO YOUR LAZY-ASS TEAMMATES!

[Someone missed the game call today and is just out doing her usual thing. SURELY NOTHING TERRIBLE HAS HAPPENED IN THE ARENA]

((Generic mingle. Abuse as you will)

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.

Who: anyone
Where: the arena
When: Day 279, late afternoon
What: minigame

[The sound echoing out from the arena this afternoon is, at least, not as irritating as the car alarm Uraeus used last time. Once you get there, it's pretty easy to spot the large steel structure that's appeared in the middle of the space. Judging from the size of it, the fact that from this angle it's mostly an uninterrupted wall with one entrance in the centre of it... well, that sure does look like it might be a maze.

And Edge has just come out of it, crossing something out in the journal he's got with him. He looks kind of irritated, but then what's new?]

((Mingle / Instructions / Maze running (NOW CLOSED) / Endgame / Winners: Orion, Ursa, Pyxis))

Who: Anyone
Where: Out of doors
When: Day 279, morning
What:

[ For most Blanks, it's another new day in Sabra La Tau. Plants to be gathered, animals to be hunted for, tools to be made or perfected, explorations of those yet-to-be-traversed back tunnels... perhaps Conversations to be had, though maybe not out in the open. ]

[ For the more observant, the air might feel just that little bit colder today.... and for those closer to the north, with more well-honed instincts than most, there's a vague sense of unease. ]

Who: Any blanks
Where: THE ARENA :x
When: Day 278, afternoon
What: minigame :x

[BANG BANG BANG etc]

[there is Lightning Rod, looking kind of grumpy but really, it's hard to tell with the kid. when people are gathered, he just points to the scene]

[There are also FOUR CANONS!! loaded next to them are CANONBALLS!! only it's easy to see that they are fake and filled with water and/or confetti]

[there are also 4 TARGETS:
-A lifelike, but fake and oddly adorable terapede. its legs and mandibles are wiggling
-a cardboard cutout of Mirror (with glassy moe eyes!)
-a scale model of a RAPTOR!!1 wearing a pink bow for some reason
-a pinata that looks suspiciously like Izaya. he is waving happily!!]

[finally, there is a play pit of balls. plastic, colorful balls. just there.]

This game is too easy, I'm not gonna even explain it to you guys! I mean, come on.

[Diamond is sitting in the kitchen and trying to go through the mushrooms she collected earlier in the day and determine which are actually safe to eat.]

It seems like such a waste to not use them all... Maybe the bad ones can still be used for decoration?

Who: Dogs, visiting Bears, and a Dolphin
Where: Canis dorms
When: Day 275, midday (before Izayananigans)
What: Lunch and plot!

*someone received a bunch of healing from your team over the past few days. that someone is now in your kitchen preparing a rather large (and vegetarian) lunch in trade for said healing*

Who: Everyone
Where: Arena
When: Day 275, morning
What: A game

[The bleating of goats call you to the arena once again. The statue of a young boy sits on the throne, his chin resting on his hands. There is a simple, wooden raised platform right below the throne that serves as a stage. Decorating the ground in front of the stage are enough cushions and pillows for everyone to sit on. Circling the stage area are simple panels in team colors. On them are three buttons. The Kid sounds tired... bored...]

Let’s be honest today.
