Event Log: Party Royale

[hadrielmods]

Who: All characters participating in the event
What: The event log for the Party Royale event
Where: All over the city!
When: September 22nd-29th
Warnings: Paintball, loss of consciousness, and partying!

As is par for the course in Hadriel, at some point throughout the day- waking up, making breakfast, doing laundry- you find an item. This isn't just any item though, it's a tried and true paintball gun, shining and just waiting to be picked up. This gun never runs out of ammunition, never malfunctions, and almost always hits the target that you're aiming at, so say hello to your new best friend for the next week.

Touching or picking up the gun will fill you with a competitive surge, which will likely increase when you find the note that's left with it, saying nothing more than be the last one standing. With instructions like that, how could you lose?

Well, you could lose if someone else shoots you. But never fear, there's a plan for that too! Even if you embrace the throes of unconsciousness, the gods have got your back and will eventually teleport you into a grand party where prizes will be handed out based on how long you survived. Awesome! At this party is also the traditional copious amounts of food and drink, as well as everyone's favorite goddess Delight and everyone's slightly-less-favorite goddess Rage!

Happy paintballing, and may the odds be ever in your favor!

Ah. You summon familiars? [He asks curiously.] It seems I yet have much to learn about you.

[His smile widens.]

You shall soon be seasoned in attending parties. A shame that we cannot all be suitably dressed.

[Even if he is mainly teasing about the cute kigurumi, he does feel somewhat awkward to have woken at a party armed and armoured, against good guest etiquette and frankly, common sense.]

[ritualized]

I do, rarely. My magic is better suited to other things, but to have a hawk or wolf beside me in dangerous times gives me better odds.

[She looks down at her outfit and laughs a little. To have been eliminated in paintball even while wearing armor is pretty embarrassing, but being one of the few in an animal-shaped adult onesie is equally a little bizarre. But it's so cozy!]

I guess this is my prize for lasting in the game so long. I wonder what that other woman got...

[hotspurred]

[Henry tilts his head, left curious by her last remark.]

Other woman...? Of whom do you speak?

[ritualized]

That British woman! After she shot you, we have quite the little stand-off...so you could be avenged, of course.

[And not because she was in any hurry to win the game, of course. Come to think of it, she should probably go ahead and congratulate Kate on a game well-played. Though her attention is still squarely on Henry, she takes a moment to see if she can spot her in the room.]

[hotspurred]

[That is a revelation to Henry; he never saw his assailant. His eyes widen in shocks.]

What say you? 'Twas Kate...?!

[He abruptly looks around the room himself, his gaze sharp and momentarily frowning. But seeing no glimpse of fading pink hair his flare of annoyance vanishes, and he finally registers Irisviel's latter words.

Henry blinks, looking directly at Irisviel. A faint dusting of pink colours his cheeks. He's touched by the gesture — completely missing that her intentions were never entirely pure.]

You sought to avenge me?
