Let's Play 20 Questions
Who: Everyone
When: Day 30, afternoon
Where: the Aurora
[Though the sun should be high in the air, just after noon the sky clouds over, and a steady drizzle begins. While gloomy, it's not particularly harsh, and the warm weather means you might even enjoy being out in it! In fact, the relatively thin and patchy clouds mean you may seem rainbows here and there. It's quite nice, really -- except, that is, that there are now tiny frogs everywhere. Near the train they're safe, but closer to the corrupt areas they're toxic.
At the same time, you hear the jingle associated with an official message from your Chain -- the usual "newbie time" balloon animation and text:]
[This round's new blood are waking up in their rooms, in the usual nondescript undies or team pyjamas.
For the first hour or so, it seems that'll all that'll happen today. But then there's that all too familiar Trial feeling...
...Aaaand a flashy pink convertible has arrived in the clearing. It's followed up by another message:]
[Message sent, Cardamom gets out of his car and unfurls a big, incredibly sparkly silver umbrella. It looks like the most intensely holographic nail polish you can buy, and the raindrops only make it worse.]
[[OOC NOTES: As the monthly prompts, the rain and frogs will continue until next month's placements. You can find more info on them in the announcements over here!
If you want to tag Cardamom, there's a toplevel here. If you have any questions, please ping the mods via the q&a. Thank you!]]

Hello, everyone. Your ever-grateful Prince speaking. It's been awhile and we've got some new faces, so I'm here to answer a few questions.
Buut to spare myself a little, I'm limiting it to one question per hero. I'll tell the truth, no matter what you ask, as long as it's at all reasonable! After that though, I reserve the right to cut you off -- but I won't, probably, if you play nice.
Sooo, how about you come outside and see me?

[.......when she gets back there will be an auburn-colored wolf cub where Ai previously was. hmm.]
no subject
but once she's back out and in real clothes. glances around a little but doesn't seem to think much of the girl being gone
at some point when it seems convenient though she'll stoop in front of this wolf cub, partly extending a hand ]
Hey, cutie.

[politely nudges her hand.]

[ petting her anyway.
and then even more belatedly ]
Wait, you were talking to me earlier.

It sounds like you're in for a very eventful afterlife twice over, then. What should I call you?
no subject
[ a brief hesitation ]
Or Breeze. Coral, right?

[tilts her head consideringly]

According to the Prince, the rest of the universe has been destroyed by the Malice with the exception of himself, a few of his friends, and those of us that he was able to salvage from the Malice. We're meant to fight it off through the power of our bonds with each other and positive emotions, so of course, some of his friends have decided that the best way to foster this is to force us to play violent games that pit our ideals against each other and our senses of self-preservation.
Some of the games are less interesting, though. We raised a child, once. And there's been a lot of social bingo. We also get money when we participate in "bonding" activities.
no subject
... raised a kid... huh...

Oh, yes. One big happy family.

I'll give it my best shot. Sorry, though, I'm kind of a basketcase.
