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

[unaffective]

... No. Not to my knowledge.

[ . . . ]

I've heard his voice, but only in a recording, and only that once - the quality was unlike any I'd heard prior...

May I ask you something in exchange, in that case?

[batshitty]

Sure.

[unaffective]

As you've only arrived, it is somewhat unlikely that you would have done so, but still - in the event that you come across a man... somewhat taller than myself, with pale hair and tanned skin - please be certain to inform me. In these circumstances, it's of the utmost importance that I find him.

[batshitty]

[ You lost him? ]

Oh. Yes, sure.

...

You wouldn't happen to have seen a girl with a goat skull around here today, would you? Asking for a friend.

[ definitely for tabby and not for me, ]

[unaffective]

Thank you -

[ she lost him :( ]

I haven't today. I did see someone matching that appearance yesterday, but I don't believe that I have in the time since.

[ ohia losing track of someone is like infinitely more alarming than her doing it though, so she reaches down to give her hand a squeeze. firm, gentle ]

I'll be certain to inform you, should I do so.

[batshitty]

[ waahhhh...

squeeze squeeze ]

Well! Since I'm definitely, totally not blind, you should show me around this place then. Right?

[unaffective]

Of course.

[ and detaching from the hug, but still keeping a hold on that hand ]

Where would you like to go first?

[batshitty]

I don't know!

[unaffective]

Well...

... Are you hungry?

[batshitty]

Very!

[unaffective]

We should still have breakfast remaining in my team's carriage - would you like to have some?

[batshitty]

That depends on what it is!

[unaffective]

A teammate made chicken soup, though it's likely disappeared - I prepared a second batch of curry, however...

[batshitty]

I'm carnivorous.

[unaffective]

My apologies - it's a vegetable curry. However -

[ . . . ]

If you'd like, I'm certain that I could prepare some using meat.

[batshitty]

Um.

I mean.

I guess if you really wanna cook for me sure that's fine --

[unaffective]

Is it not the least that I could do, for my daughter's sake?

[ it's supposed to be a joke but even she doesn't think it's funny. ]

[batshitty]

[ lynx.exe has encountered a fatal error. ]

[unaffective]

... My apologies. I'm aware that wasn't particularly amusing - and inappropriate, besides...

Still - independent of such a gesture, I will confess that I am grateful to have you here.

[batshitty]

No, it's uh fine mom.

[unaffective]

[ wow this was a mistake! ]

Regardless - to cook a bit more would be simple, though he's only taught me to make curry, I'm afraid...

[batshitty]

[ thanks I hate it! ]

That's fine!

[unaffective]

[ leading her to the carriage in some totally not awkward silence, stopping by the locker first to pick up groceries ]

[batshitty]

[ Did you know I WISH I WAS DEAD ]

[unaffective]

[ oh word? ]

Ah - please sit wherever you'd like...
