Sabra La Tau

Who: Those who have waited through the day
Where: The arena
When: Day 185, evening
What: A conclusion

[Dim light filters down from the arena’s heights; not so bright as to leave the ruins of buildings more than shadowed silhouettes, not so dark as to keep you from finding your way down, and down, to where a single flickering torch lights a broken courtyard.]

Who: Any
Where: The Arena
When: Day 180
What:

[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 five pathways each covered with a lush carpet: Pink, White, Brown, and two distinct shades of Blue. They bear the sigil of the graceful Swan, the majestic Unicorn, a the nimble Hare, the canny Dog and deft Dolphin embossed into the weave. Should you turn around, there is no exit yet, but there is a small table, filled with punch, and several large party platters filled with salted hard breads and a few jam filled pastries dusted with confectioners sugar.]

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

((OOC Note: As usual, those who run Judges may feel free to have them interact in sand form with the winners.))

[^PIKASPEAK is being yell through the bullhorn. Should you be curious enough to come to the arena, you will find that it is FILLED WITH GIANT SPARKLING COLORED BUBBLES. Using the combination of Buizel's water gun, some heavy duty soap, and a hula-hoop it was in the weapon room, don't question it, the pokes are continuously creating the bubbles. High above, Staraptor is flying in circles. Most bubbles are the same size--small hulahoop sized--but there are a few reaching at least 5ft in diameter]

[Pikachu is holding a sign:

A simple game! See how high you can get by stepping on the bubbles. The team that gets the highest will win a few necessities. Don't worry, if you mistep or run out of bubbles, we won't let you fall. You can't use the really big bubbles for the game, but if you want to sit and watch on them, that's okay. Staraptor will let you know how high you got and how many points you earned!]

((OOC: BASICALLy this game. OOCly, you have about half an hour (or a whole hour, depending) to get a score you're satisfied with. Highest team total wins! Post the score in the appropriate thread when you're finished! ICLY the bubbles will last about a second or two before popping, and you have to jump to the next bubble or fall. As stated, the Pokemon will not let anyone get hurt. The bigger bubbles won't pop for at least a good couple minutes

if you don't feel like playing, you may just chill and pop or ride the bigger bubbles. WHATEVER FLOATS YOUR BOAT. eta game over, but you are free to use this post for any sort of bubble antics o7))

When: Day 179, still morningish
What: Stuff

--not inside the dorms, please.

[Link has rolled a bunch of squidrats off his counter and into a basket and has taken them outside, along with a pan of scraps. Sets the scraps a bit away from the dorms and tips the basket so the squidrats can get out. Well, they could have gotten out fine to begin with, but they seem to be indulging Link...]

Who: Those with eyes to see and ears to hear
Where: Around the main communal cavern
When: Day 177, evening
What: A sound, a noise

[Dark, so dark. Darkness that is the utter lack of light, the truest black, where even the lowest of low-light visions fail, unable to make out anything at all. Darkness like that plays tricks on you, magnifying sounds, making every breath of moved air something that could be moving beside you, under you, or all around.

And in that dark, Monoceros and Lepus, Canis and Delphinus, there is the sound of something knocking, softly, upon your doors.]

Who: Delphinus + visitors :)
Where: Delphinus dorm area
When: Day 176, post-game
What:

[So if you're on Delphinus, coming back from the game, and were around when "Raymond" made soap the first time, the stench of boiling fat is probably familiar.

When: Day 173, morning
What: A game, a game!

[There's a tick-tock, tick-tock coming from the arena today, and as you get closer it multiplies, the ticking of clocks and the rustle of papers chiming together in a whole bunch of ticky noises. When you arrive, the statue is of a man in his prime, with a watch on his wrist and his arms and chest scribbled on all over with numbers and foreign characters. The marks range from clumsy to an intricately detailed hand, diagrams of dots and lines, numbers, all kinds of markings. some are even "carved" into the stone.

He's leaning standing in front of a simple sundial on a pedestal. If he's aware of the irony of a sundial in a place with no sun, he finds it hilarious, going by the broad grin on his face.]

The time, the time-- just look at the time! How it flies. It's time for me to make an appearance!

Will something important happen to-day? Will everyone remember? You all grow so fast! ♪ It makes me remember the past... Aah, which is more exciting, the past of the future? Or what's happening now? I just can't decide.

The game is afoot, everyone! Be gentle, it's my first time!

[ARRANGING ROOMING NOW THAT BRAD PITT IS BACK. I GUESS]

Who: Everyone
Where: The arena
When: Day 165, morning
What: A Game

[The bright vibrant call of a horn echoes through the caves today, calling all blanks to the arena. Those who listen closely as they go might be able to hear the sound of feet beating the ground in pursuit, an unfamiliar howl, and the sound of dogs—true dogs, and not those yapping runts that Soldier calls dogs—baying at their prey.

Upon entering the arena, they look upon a statue of a woman with a bow and arrow clutched in hand. The arrow is notched, aimed at the entry to the arena, looking as though it could let loose and pierce the heart of any hapless blank who would linger too long before entering. The statue's dress is simple, a short skirt and cloth draped across her shoulder, leaving her breast exposed.

On the top of the pedestal, high above the ground a large beast lays resting in wait for his master. His massive body curls easily about the statue's feet. Pitch black fur covers his sides as they heave in and out with the steady breath of his sleeping. His face is curled toward the statue, obscured by two giant paws.

As the blanks gather, the horn sounds again and the statue speaks out in a loud clear voice.]

Come, blanks of Sabra la Tau, the hunt has been delayed for far too long.
