INTROS + MONTHLIES

Who: Everyone
When: Day 51, evening
Where: the Aurora

[It's evening, and as the stars come out you get that text again:]
WELCOME NEW HEROES

[This round's newbies are waking up in their rooms, in the usual nondescript undies or team pyjamas.

Outside, the fog is gone. In its place is a pleasant evening, its beauty enhanced by tiny, softly-glowing flowers along the jungle paths. Unfortunately, should you peer closer toy may notice these flowers have blackened, curled leaves -- and the scent that wafts up when you step on them will either heighten or dull one of your senses.

But hey, why go in the jungle when you could eat questionable snacks in the lounge again? This time there are towers of round chocolates in varying colours, and sparkle blue and white snowflake decor on the walls and hanging from the ceiling. In typical Star Prince and Knights fashion there is a lot of glitter, and the chocolates definitely have a magical side-effect: in this case, transformation.

☆ Blue-wrapped chocolates cause your character to shift in age. They may get older or younger, and this transformation may be purely physical or may include mental shifting as well.

☆ Silver-wrapped chocolates cause your character to gain animal features -- anything from cat ears to fully becoming a cat is acceptable, and any animal real or mythical is game. It won't change you to a size that doesn't fit in the train, though.

☆ White-wrapped chocolates cause a transformation to a different physical sex.

☆ Black-wrapped chocolates cause you to take on the form of another person -- someone on the train or someone you remember from elsewhere. It won't turn you into anyone you don't personally know, however.

These effects wear off within a few hours, and you can combine more than one. Enjoy your icebreaker and make that fresh meat feel welcome!]

[[OOC NOTES: As the monthly prompt, the flowers will continue until next month's placements. If you have any questions, please ping the mods via the q&a. Thank you!]]

At least there's that.

[ she is, unfortunately, extremely used to "food that can potentially kill you in a way that isn't poison" but she's not going to say that out loud. ]

I could probably eat them and bypass their effects, but I sure as hell am not going to take that risk. [ not today, Satan. ] Anyway, looks like we're on the same team, so maybe introductions are in order?

I'm Inaba.

[ casually leaving out her first name, there. ]

It's probably best not to risk it. Unless you enjoy changing up your age and gender. I know one guy-- or, girl, now-- who's enjoying it a great deal.

[Bless you Randy.]

Oh, right. My name's Towa Herschel-- it's nice to meet you Miss Inaba.

[Whether it's her first or last, that kind of title would still work.]

[ and she pinches the bridge of her nose, sounding rather exhausted in spite of the fact that she's actually not tired. ]

And I certainly don't! [ she has bad, terrible experiences with changing her gender. . . and her age, in spite of not having experienced the latter just yet. ] I have a feeling that the kind of person who would enjoy it is either someone who really loves themselves already or is a pervert.

[ but she puts her hands up apologetically with a small, awkward smile ]

There's really no need for 'miss' in a place like this. It's not like we're in a formal setting or anything. [ it feels way too stuffy, if you ask her, even if she would normally not mind the formality. ] 'Inaba' is just fine, since I'd just wind up calling you Towa, anyway.
