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! ]

[Well it does sound like Randy knows Rufus better than most, actually, because that's not how most would describe him.]

I'm not sure I can condone assisting your ruse, when I don't know our own relationship.

[crimeson]

I probably should've kept my mouth shut, huh...

[saddleclub]

I'm glad you didn't. I'd be much more annoyed when it became apparent you were living a lie.

[crimeson]

I'm not really upset about it.

[I mean, Jusis can tell on that front, just, also. Randy doing a straightforward.]

You're a good person, so I don't regret being honest with you, even if it makes things more complicated.

[saddleclub]

[Wow don't be nice to him that's unacceptable. It's extra unacceptable when Randy can actually feel Jusis's general confused fluster at the compliment.]

Yes. Well. I don't know how I feel about being known when I don't know you.

[crimeson]

[aw he's cute.]

Yeah. That's definitely fair... it's another part of why I didn't want to say anything. It's pretty sketchy, isn't it? A strange older guy all "yeah I know you in the future".

[saddleclub]

Well as long as you know it's deeply suspicious sounding.

[crimeson]

Yeaaaah, it's pretty hard to miss that.

[saddleclub]

As long as that's established I'd like to hear more about it.

[crimeson]

What kind of details do you want?

[saddleclub]

How we end up comrades to start.

[crimeson]

I was working as a teacher, and you got involved in one of our Field Studies as a member of the old Class VII.

[saddleclub]

I see. You work at Thors then?

[crimeson]

A satellite campus, yes.

[saddleclub]

Something else new.

And you're the new instructor for a new Class VII?

[crimeson]

Not quite! That's Rean's position, actually.

[saddleclub]

...Ah. That's unsurprising, somehow.

[Hey turns out mentioning Rean makes him relax a lot actually.]

[crimeson]

Right? It suits him.

[saddleclub]

It does, surprisingly. What do you teach?

[crimeson]

Military Science. Rean teaches History.

[saddleclub]

[Ever felt the feelings equivalent of "wow what a nerd"? Now you have.]

I'm happy to hear that he has an occupation that suits him. So may I inquire as to why you're at odds with my brother?

[crimeson]

[he definitely relates to fond nerd judgment!]

How to explain it...

I was a member of the Crossbell Police Department. Does that give a bit of context?

[saddleclub]

[Wow buddy that's rough.]

I see. I think I can piece together the rest, yes.

[crimeson]

[he's trying very hard not to just radiate all those shitty shitty feelings, and there's not much to hide behind in their current circumstances. so he's apologetic AROUND those feelings as best he can be.]

Ahaha, well, I don't intend to hold that sort of thing against you.

[saddleclub]

I appreciate your consideration. The fact remains that my family have put you in a situation that must be... Unpleasant. If there is anything I can do about that here, let me know.
