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! ]

[crimeson]

A little late for that warning...

[oh, that's...

well, it's green glitter, but also.]

[saddleclub]

I suppose so.

[He offers his hand.]

I'm Jusis.

[crimeson]

[why are you....

but


you LOOK different, too, you look younger, what the fuck is this,]

Ah. Nice to meet you.

[takes his hand. englitters him.

enjoy that fucking wall of exhaustion/loneliness/distress]

[saddleclub]

[Look he was fine until that hit him and now he feels super confused like, he's not, it's not like he doesn't feel lonely and tired himself, but not... That much? He's been ignoring it? So what???]

Don't remember your own name or not planning on sharing it?

[crimeson]

Ahaha... I don't remember, sorry. I hear that's common here?

[randy was already baffled enough that he's just, yeah, transmuting that confusion into a sort of bitter determination on his end already.]

[saddleclub]

[What the fuck?]

Yes it is. Unfortunately.

[crimeson]

Really, what a worrying thing.

[not panicking but like, through notable effort! this is not the time to be in crisis. just. commit.]

[saddleclub]

........

...



[He's just kind of alarmed now.]

Are you feeling particularly unsettled?

[crimeson]

...? I mean, I have no memories, so of course I'm pretty worried?

[saddleclub]

Yes, but I'm feeling it too.

[He brushes at the glitter on his hands, suddenly sharply annoyed.]

It might be affecting one or both of us.

[He hasn't jumped to sharing emotions but you know, he does suspect something is going on with his feelings and now he's just highly irritated while also kind of upset.]

[crimeson]

[well

that's

skyrocketing immediately into alarm and regret.]

[saddleclub]

[????]

Red.

[crimeson]

[MANIC]

Yeah? Is that my nickname now? Cute.

[saddleclub]

Yes, certainly, let's ignore the obvious problem and talk about what to call you.

Red is unimaginative but functional for now.

Are we going to address the other part?

[crimeson]

We could... not?

[saddleclub]

What are you afraid of?

[crimeson]

Nothing.

[grimaces]

...A lot, okay? It's a lot.

[saddleclub]

Such as?

[crimeson]

Someone having a direct line to my emotions, for one thing?!

[saddleclub]

Is it one-way then?

[crimeson]

No, it's... I'm pretty sure I can feel yours too.

[saddleclub]

[There's rising unease but also curiosity.]

If I make you uncomfortable I can try putting some distance between us.

[crimeson]

[aaaaaa fucking GUILTY now on top of panicking, it all diving headlong into self-hate instead.

he growls and shoves his bangs out of his face awkwardly.]

No, it's not... like that. I don't have a problem with you.

[saddleclub]

[That's upsetting, but does make him a little determined. He grabs Randy by the hand and drags him to shove into a seat in the lounge.]

Sit and calm down a moment. You're just working yourself up unnecessarily.

[crimeson]

[oh, that's.

okay.

puts his head in his hands and tries to breathe, tries to force himself to calm down.]
