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!

[ 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.

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]

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]

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]

[ 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. ]

[utulien_aure]

Thank you. And I intend to.

[He raises his glass in return.]

Cheers!
