[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.]

If it pisses you off this much then fucking ask her why she doesn't like you and don't whine and argue when she tells you. Just listen.

[pencilpremonition]

She says I would've died if I was a Vulp. But that's not a reason to pick on me! Just cause I wouldn't've made it at Sabra doesn't mean it's okay to pick on me!

[hydralize]

You're a complete idiot if you really think that's why she doesn't like you.

[pencilpremonition]

It was... It started when I was telling her I couldn't fight.

You've seen it. You've seen me pass right the fuck out for no reason.

I was telling her that I couldn't fight and there was no point learning cause I'd just pass out randomly anyway, and she got all upset.

She said I was whining and refusing to learn and I wasn't. I just know my fucking limits.

[hydralize]

Look. Stop whining at me about this. I know you're only giving me the side of the story that makes you look best, and I don't want to spend hours bitching at you until you admit to the parts where you aren't completely innocent and perfect.

Go. Talk. To. Aella. Deal with it like a goddamn adult instead of some whining little girl.

[pencilpremonition]

But she won't talk to me. She just says a bunch of sarcastic stuff that doesn't mean anything and then flounces off.

[hydralize]

[snorts]

You know what? Nevermind this apology bullshit. I don't want to have to make my friends deal with someone as thick-headed and stubborn as you.

[pencilpremonition]

[sigh]

Fine, fine, I won't ask for your advice about her. That doesn't make everything else worthless.

[hydralize]

[rolls his eyes]

And how long is it gonna be before you think whining at me about some other problem is a good idea? Just because you apologize doesn't mean I'm gonna magically gain fucking patience for all the shit you like to pull.

[pencilpremonition]

Well maybe you'll have advice on it and maybe you'll tell me you don't and I'll stop talking about it.

[hydralize]

Maybe I'll give you advice and you'll whine about how it's pointless to even try it like you are right now.

[pencilpremonition]

But I've tried it before and it doesn't work.

[hydralize]

"Tried" like you tried to force me to pretend you never did anything wrong ever because you're really perfect and I'm just some dick fucking with you for no reason? Or tried like you actually listened to her and admitted that maybe you aren't a perfect little snowflake of innocence?

[pencilpremonition]

No like, literally nothing she says makes sense, except for the part about me whining. There's got to be a bigger reason for it than that, since she follows me around harassing me every chance she fucking gets.

[hydralize]

[okay that gets an actual goddamn laugh]

Who'd want to follow you around?! Maybe she butts in when you're saying shit she doesn't like where she can hear it, sure. But stalking? [gosh that's funny :'D]

[pencilpremonition]

Yeah? Her ears must be as big as doors, then, as many times as she pops up.

[hydralize]

[leeeeans in]

Here's a newsflash: THIS PLACE IS FUCKING TINY. You can't go two goddamn steps without running into someone you don't like, so I'll believe it seems like she's always around. But maybe you should stop fucking bitching about her all the goddamn time if you don't want her butting in on your conversations so much.

And no, it doesn't fucking matter if you think it's only fair or right. It still makes you someone who's just whining and complaining for getting picked on for saying shit about someone else like a bitch.

[pencilpremonition]

[She jumps a bit with his emphasised words, and takes a step back, looking up at him with a spooked expression.]

I didn't start complaining till after she started doing it. That doesn't make me any better, but don't act like it caused it. I want her to fucking stop and nothing works. So yeah, I'm bitching about it. Cause I'm fucking tired of her shit.

[hydralize]

Then go talk to her and fucking. Listen. Instead of thinking of how you can prove you're a poor innocent victim and she's a vicious hellbitch.

I'm done talking to you about this. And I meant it when I said don't come by my place. I don't want you thinking you can try to pass this pathetic sob story off on my friends. They might deserve an apology, but they deserve not having to listen to this kind of bullshit even more.

[pencilpremonition]

She is a vicious hellbitch.

Suit yourself, whatever. We're sorted out, that's what matters. Maybe we can finally get along and have some peace in this fucking tiny place.

[hydralize]

. . . You do understand that I still completely hate you, right? My idea of "getting along" is still leaving each other the fuck alone. That's not changing unless you make some serious fucking changes.

[pencilpremonition]

Sorry, I actually like how I am. And so does my boyfriend.

[hydralize]

. . . So you like being the kind of person that whines and bitches to people and makes things even worse for herself all the time? You're proud of that. Don't fucking bullshit me.

I like how I am. I'm an asshole, but I like being this way. I like not having to put up with crap from people like you, but I also know when I fucking deserve it. You don't have that down yet. You think everything is someone else's fault. You're fucking delusional.

You don't know yourself well enough to actually like yourself.

[pencilpremonition]

I'm not delusional. And there is such a thing as people that are just mean. Just cause I get frustrated enough about it to whine when they won't leave me alone doesn't make me a bad person.

[She's fighting tears now, though. Knowing who she is is a tough topic for her, cause she knows she doesn't.]

[hydralize]

[ignoring the crying :|a]

There is, but Aella isn't one of them. And you're not one of the rare fucking amazing saints in the world either. You're an asshole the same as her.
