Event Log: Party Royale

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!

[All that work for cat pajamas. Raidou should know to expect this by now from Hadriel. It's just seems a little unfair compared to some of the other prizes!

He's not sure what to make of Law's comment. That sounds pretty ridiculous, but Hadriel is a pretty ridiculous place.]


It wouldn't surprise me if that was the case. I wasn't planning on putting it on in the first place, though. Maybe I can trade it in.

Are you into firearms? I won't trade but I'll give you what I got.

[he pulls the fancy gun from the back of his waistband and offers it, grip side out. The last thing Law wants is an actual working gun.]

[Well that's a surprise.]

I am. I haven't been using mine since ammo is rare here.

[Raidou can't help but smirk a little, though.]

As long as you're fine with handing a gun over to a random teenager.

[To be fair, he is carrying a sword already.]

[precisely - in Law's eyes, anyone who's armed is already capable enough]

I learned to shoot a pistol when I was twelve. If you're older than that, you're old enough. There's two boxes of bullets, I'm just not carrying them on me right now. [with a thumb over his shoulder toward the rooms behind the walls]

[personal profile] the_fourteenth 2017-09-27 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm a little older than 12, yes. [He grins when he says that, but it's technically true. He's 16.

Raidou will gladly take it, and gives Law a polite bow in thanks.]


I really appreciate it. Despite all the weapons in the armory, guns and ammo are pretty rare. I'm surprised to see them getting handed out as prizes.
hot_mes: (what he said)

[personal profile] hot_mes 2017-09-28 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
I had wondered about that. But I'm not defenseless, so an extra weapon is wasted on me.

[that, and he really doesn't want to remind himself of getting shot every time he handles it]

Enjoy.

[personal profile] the_fourteenth 2017-10-02 05:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks. So did you actively participate, or did you just wait it out and end up with a gun?

[Raidou's thinking the latter, since he doesn't sound like the gun type, but now that he knows of the compulsion that happened...]

Ah. I'm Raidou Kuzunoha, by the way. It's nice to meet you.
hot_mes: (brooding)

[personal profile] hot_mes 2017-10-02 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Trafalgar Law. [with the manly head-tip of welcome] No, I don't think such a reward belongs to those who managed to hole up successfully. I went out when it became clear that people weren't going to stop putting each other in comas unless they were stopped first.
the_fourteenth: (023)

[personal profile] the_fourteenth 2017-10-03 03:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah yes, that... [Raidou sighed lightly.] I wanted to stop after I hit my first person and they went unconscious. But I'm guessing the "gods" kept the competitive feeling going. Even though I didn't want to compete, I felt I had to.
hot_mes: (suspicious)

[personal profile] hot_mes 2017-10-03 04:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[no judging here]

I know what you mean. I felt it, too. Every time I was sure I had done enough, I could put it down and get back to investigating, someone else would come by and there it was again.
the_fourteenth: (027)

[personal profile] the_fourteenth 2017-10-05 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Really? I never even wanted to put mine down in the first place. [Raidou has more of a competitive side than he'd like to admit.]

If they are going to manipulate us into feeling a certain way, why not give us warning? At least this way we wouldn't have thought we were actually putting people into comas.
hot_mes: (poutyface)

[personal profile] hot_mes 2017-10-05 06:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Hell if I know. [he'd have to ask the same question] On the one hand, it seems like they want us to just be glad we didn't kill anyone, but on the other, they may not realize that unconsciousness is not a state a human body can remain in for more than three days without intervention.
