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!

No worries, little dude. You'll get it eventually.

I gotta say, Ango, that's super cool. [Now Carey seems a little distracted, maybe even a little impatient. She angles their conversation away from the party and lowers her tone.]

Sooo, Ango, I noticed you tryin' to slip this guy into the trash. [She lifts his prize gun from the inside of her Brand New Red Leather Jacket, just briefly enough to show him that it's there, and slips it back away.] What's that about?

[hellosirs]

[ World's Greatest Detective or not, Angus has no pokerface, and his eyes practically bug out of his head at the sight of that gun! ]

Wha-!! W-when did you--?!

[ Wait, nevermind, Carey's a rogue, that question answers itself. ]

Um... I don't really want it or need it? I mean--! Crossbows are one thing, but these seem a lot worse, and I don't actually want to kill anybody. I thought Taako and Lup might start fighting over it if they found out I was gonna get rid of mine.

[fliplizard]

[To answer Ango's question, she simply winks at him.

The bit about Taako and Lup gets a laugh out of her.]

I think you're absolutely right about that. But jeez, nobody needs two guns, particularly not one of those twins. 's probably best if Aunt Carey hangs onto this thing, don'cha think? [She pats the outside of her jacket over the gun's resting place.] Don't worry, I'll keep it safe for ya.

AUNT CAREY I'M DEAD

[hellosirs]

[ Angus nods solemnly, crossing his arms over his chest. ]

The only thing worse than them fighting would be being stuck in the middle of them fighting. You can keep it if you like, but I may ask to borrow it if a really dire situation comes up. I am a pretty good shot.

[fliplizard]

Y'know, I think you're about the only person around I'd trust with my gun, so you can hold me to that.

[She has already taken ownership. Finder's keepers.]

So! You enjoyin' the party, hon? ...Now that you don't have a dangerous firearm to dispose of?

[hellosirs]

Yes Ma'am! [ Sorry Carey, that one just slipped out! ] It's certainly much less stressful without the gun to worry about.

... I mean, it's a little bit crazy, honestly? But I like that they have pretzels, and lots of snack food. Are you having fun?
