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!

[No probably not a good idea but hey who in this family has those?]

Do I? [He considers this for a moment and nods; well, better to look happy than not.]

Well, maybe I do. It's been a pleasant week. [...And belatedly, he realizes that Maedhros' little brothers probably don't want specifics.]

You've been busy with the event?

[ LOL, totally! ]

You do! [ It's not often you see a truly happy face in this family. It stands out. ]

[ Curufin won't insist on specifics, though he's curious. But he doesn't want to seem nosy. ]

Yes, I couldn't resist. I mean, I could have, but I didn't. I was actually having fun.

[An amused grin, rather sharper than the smile he's been wearing all day.] Never a bad thing, having fun. Particularly when you can win something off of it.

[...Admittedly, some of the prizes seem to be really really weird.]

I meant to join in myself, but I... Maitimo....

[Is he turning red? Definitely not, nothing to be blushing about here.]

[ Nods. ] True!

[ Curufin would have to agree with his cousin's assessment of the prizes. Although he would have gone for the booze happily enough. ]

Never mind. You were needed elsewhere. [ Smile. ]

[ He sees Fingon blushing. This is a sight to see! He can't even remember the last time that happened. Fingon is famous for his unflappable demeanor. ]

[Curufin can probably see the moment when what that smile probably means clicks into place.]

...You already knew, didn't you?

That. . . ah. . . private call that wasn't a private call might have had something to do with it. But seriously, you and Maitimo were close when we were still children, and even later, when things got difficult. And even the burned ships and the Grinding Ice and Angband itself did not divide you for long. So, no, this does not surprise me. But forgive me, I did not mean to intrude.

So that's why he was red in the face when I arrived. [A mild groan and a shake of his head.]

At least it's only the two of you who heard. And Celebrimbor. And Elrond.

[And the rest of the city, if they ever thought to care. But that was a lot less of a hassle than, say, all the cousins and his siblings and Certain Uncles Who Shall Remain Nameless could provide.]

You aren't intruding, really. You're his brother. That you're fine with it means a great deal.

[And as his own siblings' responses would have ranged from apoplectic to outrageous teasing, the comparative restraint isn't half bad.]

[ Smile. ] I'll bet he was.

Well, people in Hadriel may seem a bit rough around the edges. . . [ UNLIKE THE FINWEANS, HAHAHA ] . . . but they have a sort of decorum when it comes to net posts. They laugh uproariously at people they know well but are usually stricken with discretion when it's anybody else.

[ And What Uncles Could We Possibly Be Talking About? XD Yes, family are always the worst! ]

I am fine with it. I wish you both happiness.
utulien_aure: smiling (Nine)

[personal profile] utulien_aure 2017-10-11 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
He was as red as his hair, whatever you all said must have been quite amusing. And I'm glad that's one of their better qualities. If strangers had started chiming in Maitimo would probably have just sank into the floor.

[You mean Uncle Ara never struck you as a stickler for the letter of the Laws and Customs? snort]

Thank you, Curufinwe.

[Laughing] You know, it's strange. In some ways, it feels like everything's changed. But at the same time, nothing has. We're still what we've always been.

...I'm not sure that made much sense, actually, but there it is.
so_dark_a_road: (Feast of Reuniting -- NOT invited)

[personal profile] so_dark_a_road 2017-10-12 07:30 am (UTC)(link)
And considering how red his hair is, that's saying a lot! [ Smile. ]

[ Well, we make an exception for Uncle Finarfin. XD ]

[ Curufin laughs with him. ] Actually, you're making a lot of sense.
utulien_aure: Fingon (Forty eight)

[personal profile] utulien_aure 2017-10-14 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
That's good to hear. It does feel a bit odd, as though I've been missing something obvious this whole time. [A fond, self-depreciating smile] Still, I expect I'll get over it quickly enough.
so_dark_a_road: (fifth son of Fëanor)

[personal profile] so_dark_a_road 2017-10-19 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
[ Smile. ] Oh well. I guess missing the obvious for a while is not the worst thing that could happen. You can make up for lost time.

[ He snatches a couple of wine glasses off the nearby refreshments table and pours a couple of glasses of wine. He hands one to Fingon. ]

Cheers! And congratulations. [ He lifts his glass. ]

[personal profile] utulien_aure 2017-11-10 07:24 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you. And I intend to.

[He raises his glass in return.]

Cheers!
