Sabra La Tau

Who: Everyone
Where: The Southern Fields
When: Day 303?? Late
What: A little squiddy said...

[Should you have followed a squidrat that STOLE YOUR THING! YES THAT THING! or just one that was acting oddly, or even just a Delphinus who knocked and said there was a picnic arranged...

You eventually find yourself in the soft light of the southern fields, surrounded by wildflowers and the wary shret looking at you balefully from the ceiling.

In the red glow of the saltwater pools here... seems multiplied, many pockets of water scattered throughout the field, a breeze surrounding them... If you look INTO one, you seem to see somewhere else... hear the SOUNDS of another world...

But before you get that far, there really IS a picnic!

A few checkered blankets have been spread across the soft moss, and are filled with salads, a few fruity, girly wines and drinks, fruit slices, cubed cheese, egg custard, a variety of cold cut sandwiches. (and a few loaves of fresh bread and pies.. because Link is Link.) ... there is also a very, very burned thing of cole slaw. The squidrat by it is eating it PROUDLY.]

((OOC: GOOD END COMMUNICATION! GO. GOOD ENDERS, feel free to start a thread with your name, you'll be visible and audible in the pool, both of your connections are a little wavy and watery though...))

Who: Any
Where: The Arena
When: Day 289, noon
What: Good Ends

[The Call that resounds from the Arena is loud, echoing to every part of Sabra. A regal crescendo of notes and then anticipatory silence. Should you follow it today, the Arena is that strange darkened landscape again...

Simple darkness fills your vision, no delineation between up and down, walls or even the floor. You can only see the throne in the far off distance, and three pathways each covered with a lush carpet: gold, orange, and lavender. One bears the sigil of the hunter, club upraised and a string of jewels shining in his belt. The second has several foxes embroidered cunningly into the cloth, their silhouettes nearly invisible against the background. Finally, a great peacock adorns the third, its many tailfeathers rising nearly the entire length of the path. Should you turn around, there is no exit yet, but there is a small table holing a punch bowl and several large party platters.

However, should you follow either of the pathways, the landscape begins to change...]

[ Orion | Vulpecula | Pavo | Everyone else | Memories | Wishes | Departures--- SURPRISE TWIST ]

Who: New girl
Where: Just outside DelPavo
When: Day 288, post game
What:

[Having dumped her coat in her room, a new Delphinus has wandered out of the gear dorm to... look offended by the bridge-less river]

How am I supposed to cross that?

[P.S: Her button-up shirt has been unbuttoned at the top to a, uh, rather exposing degree.]

Who: She wishes she knew, and uhhhh anyone?
Where: Outside near the Delpavo area
When: Day 286, Mmmorning?
What:

[ There is a preteen girl in Pavo clothes that's wandering around outside Delpavo's area after waking up and (quietly) panicking in general. She looks lost, confused, worried, and most things are kind of blurry for her. Por que, life.

Also she's tripping on a lot but at least manages to stop herself from faceplanting each time... This is not going as she had planned. ]

((Sleeping! Will do tags laterrrrr.))

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: Anybody
Where: Delpavo
When: Day 283, post-game and throughout the afternoon
What: games, memories, and a princess is missing

At least no one died.

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.

[OOC: TEAMS PLACE YOUR ACTIONS IN THE APP. COMMENT: Terapede / Mirror / Raptor / Izaya / . . .ballpit. . .]

Who: Whoever
Where: Delpavo
When: Day 274, afternoon
What:

[There are times when it's good that Lucky doesn't hate you! But there are also times she randomly drops by to mooch attention (and possibly food). This is one of the latter times.]

Helloooo! Blue-and-purple coooomrades!

[KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK]

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: DelPavo, people who want to point and laugh
Where: Geardorm
When: Day 273, evening? However long it takes to get sober?
What: SRSDOLPHIN HANGOVERS

...someone turn those torches down.

((sloooow post PICK AT YOUR LEISURE))

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: Anyone
Where: Anywhere
When: Day 268, evening
What: plottings?

[So, as usual there is an Uroboros wandering around, fairly cheerful and all. And yet there may be a slight difference in his mannerism if you're one to catch that. The fact that he's knocking on dorm doors doesn't seem odd, surely?]

Who: Moontimers and people with bad sleep habits
Where: By the cove
When: Day 265, late morning
What: Mingling Getting people wet

Hey, look at this!

[Ker-canonball. The splash may be heading your way.]

Who: Everyone
Where: Arena
When: Day 265, bright and early (to leave room for folks who need to backdate things)
What: the BEST GAME EVER

[The pull is especially insistent today, if kind of ... wobbly? It's a weird feeling. Almost nauseating.

And for good reason, because once you get there you will see that everyone's ~favorite~ judge is seated on her throne. Except -- your reflections in her statue are extra wobbly today. And Mirror herself is laughing herself silly, her words slurred.]

Oh! Oh! This will be hilarious! The faces they'll make.

[There are also seventeen small buildings in the room, made of mirrored glass and set up much like your good ol' War Room games. What could be in there??]


[ MINGLE | ROOMS | AFTER-MINGLE | THREAD SUBMISSION (until 8 PM EST on Thursday) ]

Who: Dummies
Where: Hydracula
When: Day 263, early evening
What:

[Up on the hat, there is a man looming over piles of body parts - arms, legs, torsos, and heads. At his feet, Lucky takes her knife to the hands, chopping away without mercy or compunction.]

[To make matters worse, get close enough and you'll see that Lucky isn't butchering people at all; she's simply having a good, wholesome time making enough dummies to replace an entire team.]

[By the way, Scowl 2.0 has become Rex 3.0. You can tell because he has a headband, no shirt, and the stupidest-looking face she could draw.]

Who: Shizuo, Vorona, and stalkers
Where: The meeting hall.
When: Day 262, early evening (post minigame ish)
What: FIGHTDATE THAT HE DOESN'T KNOW IS HAPPENIN'.

[After finishing off the raptor, Lion didn't end up following Tide and Rapunzel all the way back to the arena . . . big mistake bro.

Oh yeah and his uniform is covered in blood. Hot.]

Who: Everyone
Where: The Arena
When: Day 262, Morning
What: AUGH IT'S THE AIRHORN AGAIN

[There are several members of Caduceus standing around in the arena this time, though they don’t seem to have much with them for once. Apart from a few sheets of paper, the only other notable things around are a set of sixteen empty baskets in the color of each team.]

((This game will run over the weekend so you have plenty of time to find stuff, submissions at 6EST on Sunday

EDIT because ij was all lame and broken submissions are due same time tomorrow.))

Who: uhh...
Where: umm...
When: Day 261, afternoon
What: errr...

[If you were near the northern outskirts of the habitated area, you might have heard the crash; a whir of pure speed, a cut-off profanity in sonic boom, and then the crunch of flesh and bone against solid rock.

Or in other words, Lucky done A-T'd herself into the wall.

It's not long before she's wandered back into the lit area, skating around in confused zig-zags. Her clothes are dirty and tattered, and blood runs down her face. It probably look worse than it is, really.

Really, the only surprising thing is why this didn't happen sooner.]

Helllooooo?

Who: Temporarily locked to Apus, SOON TO BE OPEN
Where: The new dorms
When: Day 261, After midnight
What:

[It's a few hours after midnight that the great flurry of ants finishes their work. Walls rebuilt, furniture settled in...

The dorm is a little larger than most, three rooms and a kitchen circles a common area, and a ladder gives access to a second floor with three more rooms and an empty one. On the floor of the common room is a large tile mosiac of two shades of pink, of a soaring bird of paradise, set on a red background.

The inside is new and almost pristine, the kitchen untouched by food or fire, the inscription on the wall fresh. On the common room table sits twelve spare uniforms, six serrated knives, a coil of rope and a wrapped package of rations sits. In the kitchen is a simple set of cookware and a basic first aid kit, all in plain view, waiting for the first who appeared in their rooms to awaken.

It's a few hours until curfew lifts... the door outside is locked.]

((OOC note: CUREFW AWAKENING A GO. Feel free to do a LATER thread at will for visitors to the dorm sitting up on top of where Cygnus used to be :D))

Who: Pavo + visitors
Where: Geardorm
When: Day 257, afternoon
What: Memories

[Oh we've got memory back up again, I guess it's time to take these]
