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!► This log covers September 22nd-29th.
► Feel free to make your own logs as well
► Please tag headers of threads with content warnings where they apply
► Please put your character's name and open/closed in the subject line of your starters!
► If you fall and break your neck or something because you can't die in paintball, please let us know here.

[Having lived for nearly that long, Rey's got to see technological progress from an interesting perspective, and as different people.]
You seem like the type who fights with pens rather than swords.
no subject
[Marg wouldn't be able to imagine such a thing. she still has trouble with her phone]
With pens and words, yes. I was good. I was very good. But it wasn't enough to save me when Cersei Lannister decided to destroy the Sept of Baelor. I tried to warn them, but they were so secure in their safety and their gods that they wouldn't listen.
no subject
[Which are more effective than prosthetics, from what Rey has seen. She has known a few who have greatly benefited from such technology.]
Their gods. [Rey snorts.] Good to know that people relying on some higher powers to come swoop down and rescue them from the stupidity of other human beings isn't world-exclusive.
no subject
[they can't even make working prosthetics in Westeros. for the most part, if someone loses a limb there, they wind up having to beg for money]
No, it certainly isn't. All their faith did was ensure their own deaths along with mine and countless others. To be honest, I'm not even sure I believe in gods anymore.
no subject
[Not that Rey can blame all of them. Some of those cybernetics augment certain human capabilities. Still, it's a weird part about culture to get used to. Hell, Rey's had several bodies to replace the ones that got destroyed, so who is she to judge?]
Well, all things considered, that... sounds fair. Never really knew what to believe. Long as it wasn't hurting anyone, that seemed like a good enough deal.
no subject
[Margaery would be very interested in that as technically, this is her second body]
That's the important thing. Not hurting anybody. The Faith of the Seven forgot about that.
no subject
[Because that's just the sort of dumbass thing most adolescents would do when cybernetics are introduced to the world.]
That seems to be a common problem with any faith. Once you get the self-righteous pricks who think they're right, they act like they get a pass to do whatever they want because their asshole gods will "forgive" them.
no subject
[the young can be incredibly foolish and short-sighted]
It's even worse when they're simply fanatics. No goals other than to bring down anyone who doesn't fit within their narrow view of what the true faith is.
no subject
[She's seen people jab holes into their skulls and skin in all kinds of horrific looking manners. In some way, Rey can sort of see the appeal. At least cybernetics serve a very unique function.]
Mm. Have dealt with fanatics like those before. Not a fan, have to say.
[Guess where her throat scar came from. If she were a normal human, she'd be dead.]
no subject
[the notion completely mystifies Margaery. though, she comes from a culture where even ear piercings aren't normal]
Oh? I'm sorry to hear that they're not unique to Westeros.
[she's noticed the scars, but feels that it's not polite to mention them unless Rey mentions them first]
no subject
[Which she'll pass on, thank you. Piercings put you at a pretty nasty disadvantage in combat.]
Yes, well. Seems that it's a thing no matter what world you're in. How not surprising...
no subject
[tattoos: also largely unheard of in Westeros. unless you're a Thenn, then you're pierced and tattooed, but Thenns are Wildlings. they don't count]
I wonder if the fault is in the faith or in the men and women who control the faith.
no subject
[Weird.]
Maybe a little bit of both. [She shrugs.]
no subject
[Westeros is weird, it's true]
Likely so. Having blind faith in anything seems as though it would wreak havoc with the rest of their mind.
no subject
[She isn't about to question the sanity of a people for having enough of it not to mutilate their own bodies.]
There were people like that, in my world. People who were affected by war and just... needed something to hold onto. Even if it was bugshit insane.
no subject
I understand. My home has been at war for over five years. Many of the Sparrows, fanatics for the Faith of the Seven, were former soldiers disillusioned by constant war.
no subject
Can't say that's all that uncommon. War tends to start or prolong thanks to fanaticism. Have known some to last thousands of years because of that shit.
no subject
no subject
But that's, er... a different story.

Guess it depends. Which part are you interested in?
