Event: Bubbles...??

[trainmasters]

Who: You?
When: Day 5, morning
Where: Everywhere

[ If you step outside this morning you may find a surprise! Large, pink colored bubbles, bouncing along lazily in the air as if they just arrived from some child's pleasant dreams. They are roughly the size of a melon and, upon closer inspection, appear to be filled with ... something? That sparkles and reflects the morning sunlight.

In any case, they seem harmless enough. Just a strange weather pattern for this strange world. Though if you happen to bump into one (or perhaps if one happens to sneak up and bump into you) you'll find that it pops quite easily upon contact-- and covers you in glitter!?

Well at least that explains the sparkling. But is this really harmless after all...? If nothing else, it's really annoying.

Oh yeah, by the way! You may find that some of your teammates are missing... but don't worry! Most of the empty rooms have already been filled by brand new Heroes! This isn't concerning at all! ]


[ OOC NOTES ON THIS EVENT

Each of these bubbles contain different colored glitter! Each glitter has a different effect, and you may oocly choose which color or combination of colors you want this glitter to be. The effects remain until you wash all of the glitter off. In addition, it's completely possible to get glitter on someone else just by contact... in fact some of these effects won't actually kick into place until you do spread the glitter curse. Just remember to communicate oocly which effects you want to play with!

GLITTER COLORS

White: Nothing. It's just glitter.
Purple: Increase "positive" feelings! Maybe you can't stop laughing, or maybe you suddenly feel much more affectionate towards someone you didn't particularly like before... whatever it is, it's definitely a little concerning. But maybe it's not too bad? This effect lasts until you manage to wash the glitter off.
Yellow: Memory share (x1) upon contact! Whoever you touch with this glitter receives one of your memories... but only if you also happen to remember it! (memories from the game itself are also valid!)
Green: Feelings share upon contact! Whoever you touch with this glitter can feel whatever you are feeling and vice-versa. This effect lasts until you manage to wash off the glitter.
Blue: Thoughts share upon contact! Whoever you touch with this glitter can now hear your thoughts and vice-versa. At least any loud thoughts. Maybe think a little quieter? This effect lasts until you manage to wash off the glitter.
Pink: You cannot lie. If you lie you start to feel sick... coincidentally enough, telling the truth makes you feel better? Or you can wash the glitter off. ]


[ ALSO! To those who were poisoned in the last game, you have the option to say that the poison has worn off by now! You also have the option to keep playing with it if you would like, either way is completely fine! ]

Comments

everyone, any color

[fisherofmen]

[ There's a young woman of average height and dirty blonde hair in the common areas, wearing - none of the team uniforms but instead a pure white summer dress. Hm! That's unusual! Occupied with tossing what looks to be pebbles at the bubbles, she startles when one of them pops and explodes sparkles - on you! or maybe not on you but somewhere very close to you! ] Aha! Sorry about that! [ Who. . . the fuck is this. Who the fuck is she? There's definitely something unusual about her - if you can sense magic, then there's something definitely going on with her, something powerful and perhaps just a little bit wrong. If not, though - well, she's still not wearing any given uniform! Weird!!! ]

why have you done this

[crimeson]

[just kind of gets

fuckin glittered all over, and looks mildly put out for about three seconds before he spots the culprit... and immediately chills out.]

Ehh, it's fine. What are you up to that it happened, though? Target practice?

because I am a crime, son.

[fisherofmen]

[ with a little wave, an airheaded sort of tone ] You see, they sparkle when they pop, so I wanted to see all the different colors . . . !

rude

[crimeson]

[waves back, closing the distance between them.]

Well, since I'm a mess anyway, want a closer look?

[unaffective]

- Ah -

[ just like barely manages to cover her face in time but is still exceptionally glitterified ]

Is - is there some reason that you've taken to bursting them...?

[fisherofmen]

Ahaha! Because, [ in an airheaded sort of tone, voice with a cheerful lilt ] The bubbles sparkle when they pop, so I wanted to see the colors . . . !

[unaffective]

That's hardly any reason to throw stones indoors, however...

[ it sounds more weary than anything else, like, on one hand pretty girl, but on every other hand she is so tired and still feeling kind of unsettled and now all of this glitter is in her hair ]

[saddleclub]

And who are you?

[And why are you in white. And why are we both covered in glitter now.]

[fisherofmen]

[ purple glitter is nice ] That's a good question!

[saddleclub]

Another wretch with amnesia then?

[bowtiedbones]

[YELPS and freezes like maybe that will somehow keep the glitter from settling on her. please she has so much hair, so much, she's going to be brushing this out for weeks]

What was that for!

[fisherofmen]

Ahaha! Sorry, I didn't see you there! [ with an airy laugh, light and cheerful and completely unbothered by the other's new misfortune ]

[bowtiedbones]

Maybe next time look where you're throwing things?

[starts brushing herself off, taking off her big Thyme coat to shake it out]

i swear. also green or pink, or if u really wanna fuck with him yellow,

[hissoff]

[ ... why have you done this. he just stands still for a moment. like he got suddenly doused with cold water. before he slowly turns towards "her" ]

Ah, I haven't seen you before.

[fisherofmen]

[ let's really fuck with him that yellow glitter looks lovely on you ] Yes! Good morning!

[hissoff]

[ well it's true yellow and pink generally look good together

speaking of ..... ]

Hm? [ looking at her a bit closer... ]

Miss, which cabin did you come from?

Re: everyone, any color

[batshitty]

Wow! Did you know, this is going to be really funny in about a week?

Re: everyone, any color

[fisherofmen]

Really? What happens in a week?

[batshitty]

[ I don't fucking kn ]

It's a surprise!

Re: everyone, any color

[nihilmancy]

[her face is covered in blue glitter and a blank expression.]

Pardon me, but I must ask you to refrain.

[death by poisoning
death by gangrene
death by infection caused by severe burns
death from blood loss
that's a cute dress
death from starvation
death from brain hemorrhage]

Re: everyone, any color

[fisherofmen]

[ What? ] Oh. Uhm. I'm sorry.

Re: everyone, any color

[nihilmancy]

[Trapped alone in a dark hole without light for five months. Only worms to feed on. You live out the rest of your days blind and alone. From your rotten corpse, new worms are born.]

I appreciate your consideration. Those bubbles could have been unsafe.

Re: everyone, any color

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ I'm blue da ba dee ]

...Mm, of course you are.

[ it's dryly cheerful rather than annoyed— conspiratory, even

though that might be because a moment later she gives herself a wet dog shake to get glitter out of her hair and shamelessly aims the spray at the other girl. vENGEANCE ]

Re: everyone, any color

[fisherofmen]

Oh! [ her thoughts mirror her surprise, jumping up - and then she laughs ] Well, I guess I deserved that!

Re: everyone, any color

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ echoing that laugh. her own thoughts are a gleefully amused gotcha, though the undertone borders on an almost wicked satisfaction (and carries with it its own murmur of concern— it's just glitter, that reaction is a little intense, why is she like this?) ]

Just a little, sorry~. It's hard to get out, you know, so we might as well both be finding it in weird places for the next week.
