[Late god is late]

[oi_theoi]

Who: Game players and observers
When: Day 22, afternoon
Where: New and improved shrine room
What: Kain's idea of fun.

[If you've managed to remember to drop in the shrine room, you'll notice Kain's shrine is missing. In its place are five tables with an assortment of ball shaped slots with names written in each hole. Each table has a number labeled in the wood along with locked boxes placed neatly on the tables. If you find your name in a ball slot, you can place the ball you received yesterday into the corresponding slot. This will trigger your box to unlock and you will be able to receive your usable item. Above everything, a screen with instructions hangs in midair.]

Thank you for coming. Each table corresponds with the new friends that you will be working with today. Each of you will receive an item with which you will use with your team members to create a device to capture the creature shown below. Extra special prizes will be awarded based on: creativity in carrying out the mission, effectiveness of the trap and overall teamwork. THERE ARE NO PUNISHMENTS FOR FAILURE. You have 3 hours.

Please enjoy yourself, learn something about each other, and have fun!



[A bowl of balls is placed at the side of the door for anyone who wants to join in.]


[OOC: I will NOT be around in every thread but if you comment to the 'ball-in' thread, I will let you know what is the secret item your character has received. If you did not sign up on Thursday, but would still like to play, e-mail me and I'll add you to a team!

THE OOC DUE DATE FOR THIS POST/GAME IS TUESDAY MIDNIGHT PST...Please have your team's result (or lack of) posted to the TURN IN thread before 7AM PST (when I wake up) to have it counted towards prizes. An ENDGAME/PRIZE post will be thrown up tomorrow morning, barring the world coming to an end.]

Yes, I actually apologised. Would you like to go ice skating?

[hydralize]

Are you going to apologize to the other people in my apartment?

[pencilpremonition]

Not your sister unless she promises not to hit me again. I think that's a fair trade.

The others...if they want me to. I'm not gonna hunt 'em down if they don't care.

[hydralize]

Don't be lazy about this. They deserve the apology and you damn well know it.

[pencilpremonition]

Don't you think it's kind of counter productive to go harass someone about apologising to them if they don't care? I didn't say I wouldn't give. I'll come by after dinner, you can tell 'em I'm coming. The ones that wanna hear it can come meet me at the door, the ones that don't wanna don't have to.

And get that promise off your sister, cause I'm not getting punched for doing something you wanted.

[hydralize]

If you're going to whine about it this much, then you don't mean anything you're saying. You don't really understand why it needs an apology. They're all gonna want one.

She's never gonna agree to that promise. She wouldn't even promise not to punch my—guy . . . If you're just coming to the door though, then it's fine. She won't care about that as long as she can keep ignoring you.

[pencilpremonition]

Your 'guy'? Are you gay or something?

[hydralize]

. . . So what if I am?

Done!

[pencilpremonition]

...nothin'.

Re: Done!

[hydralize]

Right . . .

[pencilpremonition]

You gotta admit, she's pretty violent. Even for one of you guys.

[hydralize]

Aa, but at least she's goddamn honest about the kind of person she is.

[pencilpremonition]

I try to be honest.

It's hard living here, though. There are lots of people that pick on me for no reason.

[hydralize]

People always have a reason. Even I know that.

[pencilpremonition]

Aella started picking on me the minute I got here. I didn't do anything besides show up here and she started picking on me.

Now she's gone and turned all her friends against me, too, all cause I "said mean things about Aella". But the only thing I said about Aella was that she was mean to me.

One of her friends even cut me across the face.

[hydralize]

[Just looks at her incredulously]

[ARE YOU REALLY TRYING THIS WITH ME?]

[pencilpremonition]

[What, if I can get you to be nice to me, surely you'll know how to get Aella to be nice to me.]

[hydralize]

. . . Why did you apologize to me just now?

[pencilpremonition]

Cause it was the right thing to do...?

[I'm not sure?]

[hydralize]

Uh-huh . . . Not so you could try to sell me the exact same kind of bullshit about someone else? Don't you think "sob sob Aella is mean to me and I never did anything" sounds exactly like "sob sob Scowl is mean to me and it's all his fault"?
