Event Log: Patron Gods

[hadrielmods]

Who: Everyone participating in the event!
What: The event log for the Patron Gods event!
Where: All around the city
When: March 15th-March 20th
Warnings: The gods choose you! Whether you choose them back is your call.

It's March 15th! Whether or not you've been having a good or a bad week, the gods decided to get together and put all the characters on teams- just like in those gym classes that you always skipped! Whether or not you were the last one picked is up for debate, but until we can figure that particular mystery out, there's another one to mull over... namely, who left that mysterious note in your bedside table/shoe/fishtank? And how did you get a friendship bracelet twined around your wrist?

Regardless, when opened, the letter will say-

'Congratulations! You have been chosen! [God name] thinks you're a great fit for their team! All you have to do is spread their emotion, and you'll get a blessing - and if your team wins, you get the grand prize: one (1) request for each member of the team, no payment required! Or you can band together and request one big thing, it's all up to you! So find your allies, get started, and let's win this thing!'

Whether or not this is for real becomes immediately obvious, as you seem to find yourself yearning to cooperate with your teammates, and maybe feeling a bit competitive toward your foes. Grab a squeaky chicken or a creepy doll or a snowglobe from the shops if you like, and let's get inspiring! Of course, you aren't forced to participate, but have fun telling your teammates that nobody is going to win their wish because you decided to be a stick in the mud.

Go forth and spread joy! Or sorrow, or scare people, or just really piss them off- but whatever you do, try to have fun and build that sense of community! You're going to need it...

► This log covers March 15th-March 20th.
► 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're just so mad at the gods that you'd rather die than participate, then let us know here!

bee movie but every time they say bee something important blows up

[skelebro]

[Maybe he can't eat everything that's been spread out - most of it ain't magic, he's willing to bet, assuming any of it is - but at least he can touch base on a pleasant day and take one of those much needed union-regulated breaks.

It's a nice spread. The colors are eclectic and it strikes a weird picture, takin' place in a dank, hollow cave, but it's the spirit that counts.

Plenty of it to go 'round. And he's guessin' it's that same spirit of camaraderie that makes it easy to pin down that he's got a teammate here.]

Delight, huh?

[iustitiae]

[it's the spirit that counts, the motto of team delight, who probably has the most uphill battle here.]

Absolutely. Guess she just really likes me. [which makes sense, after the mistletoe thing.] I'm glad we're on the same team, Comic Sans.

[maybe it's a little more than that - they hadn't talked much since that inbox thread, and he's honestly glad for the opportunity to have something more normal and chill with his skeleton friend.]

[skelebro]

Still the only god who likes my jokes.

[Or at least, the only one that tries to return 'em in kind. Maybe that ain't so surprising, then, that he got picked up for her team. Definitely the only god who wouldn't demand he quit telling his jokes as a price.

He ain't forgotten the tenor of their last conversation. But, hey, who needs talking about your problems, right? That's what that whole anonymous posting nightmare was about, yeah? And everything's fine now. Everyone got everything off their chest that they needed off their chest, and things are great.

Just great.]

Hey, same, pal. This was a good idea.

[iustitiae]

The other gods just don't appreciate you for who you are.

[and honestly it doesn't surprise him!! the gods were all varying degrees of sketch, but he did like delight at least.]

I don't know if it'll be enough to win, but it's something.

[winning is extremely important.]

[skelebro]

[Aww, Connor. That might be the nicest thing anyone's ever said to him. No, really. He thinks it honestly might be.]

Odds're pretty stacked against us. Personally, I'm bettin' on Rage or Confusion. [Those seem to be the two most common emotions down here. Just kinda by default.]

[iustitiae]

Did you see the team Tranqulity library, though?

[hes a little jealous]

[skelebro]

Yep.

[Might be planning his own little party crashing maneuver later on.]

I figure we could make some adjustments. To ease the mood, y'know?

[iustitiae]

[connor's face definitely lights up at the suggestion]

I'm listening.

[skelebro]

I gotta get some supplies together, check and see if Alphys could rig me up some speakers.

But you could pop on in there in a few hours, maybe.

[iustitiae]

Sure, I'll try and stop by. It'll be fun.

[skelebro]

I'm thinkin' it will.

[Sure, it'll be "ruining the mood" a hair, but it'll be funny, right? That's the point. Or somethin' along those lines.]

It's been way too many days since my last nonsense. I gotta pick up the slack.

[iustitiae]

It has been, hasn't it?

[come to think of it]

I think we're due for a shitpost. We should call Rosie after all this.

[skelebro]

What team's she on, anyway?

[Given her, uh...fixation on Sorrow, he's gotta pretty good guess. Frisk's friendship with Hope kinda paid off after a while, right?]

[iustitiae]

We should maybe wait until after everything. You and I know our posts are gold, but they seem to get a disproportionate amount of rage.

[skelebro]

Who'da figured?

[Maybe if he wants that trombone, a collaborative effort'll be enough to cheer people up for Delight's appeasement.]

Kinda been steerin' clear from the network 'till this whole fuss dies down.

[iustitiae]

Yeah, I'm sure there's going to be some very colorful statements made.

[skelebro]

You're tellin' me. Team Rage is goin' all out.

[iustitiae]

They've got Cashmere and she's a force to be reckoned with.

[skelebro]

[He remembers.]

Pretty sure they got Shadow too. [God help them all.]

[iustitiae]

Yikes. Definitely avoid the network.

[skelebro]

And maybe the rooftops too. Guy likes to run.

[iustitiae]

Who normally hangs out on rooftops? Other than, like, Batman?

[skelebro]

Why? Is he here?

[Look, he's a talking skeleton, and Shadow's a black hedgehog with attitude issues. Anything's possible.]

[iustitiae]

I don't think so?

[but then again his roommate has been a superhero this whole time so who fucking knows anymore]

[skelebro]

Now I gotta keep an eyesocket out for bat-people too. [All said with faux exasperation, 'cause who's got time to get real irritated? That sounds like work.] Knowin' this place, there's gotta a few of 'em, right?
