Event Log: Patron Gods

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!

Ray's on the prowl for more people to riddle, but she stops in her tracks when she smells the smoke coming out of the building.

That does not seem like a good sign.

She weighs her options--mostly between keeping her head down and trying to help out--and after a few moments bangs on the door with her fist. "Hello? Is anyone in there? I think there might be a fire!"

Ray doesn't fancy herself a hero, so she has no illusions about herself kicking down the door and hustling in there to save someone. Besides, it's not a lot of smoke, right? Better to remain calm.

It's not a lot of smoke, but a makeshift soldering iron is exactly that, and the temperature control... well, it's not ideal, and sometimes a capacitor or other little bit of fiddly technology goes up in a puff of really bad smelling smoke. She's been busy, locked in, and the air is a little hazy by this point. Probably unhealthy, but under the circumstances, it's not as if OSHA is going to come down on the lab here.

She frowns and puts down her tools in a safe spot before heading to the door. WHo knows what anyone outside is up to. Fear, Delight, Confusion, Rage... at least whoever was chosen by Tranquility is probably safe. Probably.

Not opening the door, she yells through, "There's no fire. It's fine."

Fine? It doesn't exactly look or smell fine to Ray, but she supposes she has little way to know for sure out here. She's too curious to just give up.

"...Then what're you doing?"

She's almost tempted to test the doorknob, but that would be very rude...
einselective: (yelling)

"Working! And I don't want to have anything to do with whatever team you're on so don't even think about trying anything!" Marian adds, doing her best to head any situation off at the pass.
liveasmyself: (Evasive/Confused)

[personal profile] liveasmyself 2017-03-18 09:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, that was abrupt. It seems strange to Ray that anyone would be so vehemently against whatever's going on--sure, Ray doesn't know how it'll end, but what's the harm in going along? It might even be beneficial.

"...You don't want to help out the gods?"
einselective: (displeased)

[personal profile] einselective 2017-03-19 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
"No! And they can keep whatever nonsense 'blessings' they have to themselves!" Marian is very vehement on that point. Fear picking her in particular isn't something she likes, especially when he's known to be the one that opened the Door and brought them here.
liveasmyself: (Wide eyes)

[personal profile] liveasmyself 2017-03-19 03:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Ray pauses, surprised once again by how angry this person seems--and how different her reaction is from her own.

"If you cooperate, they might make things easier here. It could help us get out."

That was how it worked in the place she was before, at least. Put things together and follow the instructions and you'll be okay. Mostly.

Tired of yelling to be heard through the door (and Ray doesn't exactly sound too threatening), Marian slides back the deadbolt and opens the door enough of a crack to peer suspiciously through.

"How is it supposed to do that? With us serving as sentient batteries, do you actually expect them to want to let anyone go? No, we'll handle it ourselves." At least, she hopes so. She's met talented people here, true, but nobody has much to actually work with, only the bits of scrap scavenged here and there.
liveasmyself: (Uncomfortable)

[personal profile] liveasmyself 2017-03-21 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
Ray steps back, ready to bolt, when the door cracks open. Okay, the person on the other side doesn't look that scary either, but she couldn't be sure with how angry they seemed.

She bites her lip and thinks a moment--the point about batteries is an angle she hadn't considered before, and the idea of it makes her uncomfortable. It makes too much sense.

"But how can we do that without cooperating? I wouldn't have the first idea of how to get out of here on my own. There're walls all around us."

Eyeballing Ray, Marian wonder exactly how many kids there are around here. Her reply is, maybe, a little too honest an opinion. "If there's nothing you can do, then just try to stay safe and wait," she says frankly.

Just because she's not yelling anymore doesn't mean she's going to be nice and open the door further though. No, she's got her eye out for whatever color bracelet Ray has. "Which one picked you?"
liveasmyself: (Serious)

[personal profile] liveasmyself 2017-03-23 12:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Ray frowns, feeling a twinge of annoyance at the directions--she doesn't think she's that pathetic. Just... very limited in what she can do to proceed here.

Ray holds up the wrist with the orange bracelet. "Confusion. Do you still have yours?"

This person didn't seem too keen on participating either way, but Ray's curious. She's not entirely sure what criteria the gods used for picking the people they did, and she wonders which one of them wanted this person. Maybe Rage? She certainly seems a bit crabby.
einselective: (slow sidestare)

[personal profile] einselective 2017-03-24 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
Confusion. Not someone she wants anywhere near anything she's working on, then, regardless of appearances. That weird competitive urge rises just a little, before she grits her teeth, cognizant and quashing it. Fear. What a stupid, stupid choice from a stupid, stupid entity aiming to cause nothing but trouble.

"Of course not," she scoffs. "And who would want to help anything calling itself a god of confusion, fear, rage? Troublemakers, that's who."
liveasmyself: (Unamused)

[personal profile] liveasmyself 2017-03-26 02:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Ray drops her arm to her side and feels her shoulders stiffen. "I'm not a troublemaker! I'm just trying to get myself out of here."
einselective: (displeased)

[personal profile] einselective 2017-03-27 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
"Really? Either way, you're not going to be causing any confusion around here," Marian snorts. "Take my advice. You're better off not cooperating with something you don't understand."

And on that note she slams the door shut again. Those gods and their competition. What a load of nonsense.
