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:]
WELCOME NEW HEROES

[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:]
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?

[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!]]

[ He has absolutely already done that. ]

Why not? If they're willing to part with 'em, I'm willing to take 'em.

[ And vice versa but you know. ]

It's not even hard to make sparks, you delinquent.

Yeah but why not have fun with it?
awakenerd: (sigh)

[personal profile] awakenerd 2019-06-18 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
...Just don't go overboard.

[personal profile] bad_crowmance 2019-06-18 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course, I would never.

[personal profile] awakenerd 2019-06-18 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Well that's a load of bs.

Wow, that hurts! Where's the trust, Rean? Where's the respect?
awakenerd: (243)

[personal profile] awakenerd 2019-06-18 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh I trust you all right. I trust you to make trouble.

Me? a troublemaker? I would never.

[personal profile] awakenerd 2019-06-19 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
Uh-huh. Well, honestly, that's something I like about you.

Which part? The way I definitely never cause any trouble?
awakenerd: (94)

[personal profile] awakenerd 2019-06-19 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
...I wonder.

[personal profile] bad_crowmance 2019-06-19 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's definitely what it is.

I can dunk you in the ocean you know.

I'm already wet so it's not like it'll make that much of a difference.

[ HE'S COMPLETELY UNREPENTANT. ]

[personal profile] awakenerd 2019-06-19 07:06 am (UTC)(link)
Yes but then you'd be wet and salty.

[ Hmmm. A valid point. ]

Let's skip out on dunking me in the ocean this time.

[He just shakes his head, laughing.]

Sure. This time.

You're so reasonable.

[ He reaches out to ruffle Rean's hair. ]
