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!

Are you sure you aren't looking in a mirror?

[this is probably the smoothest he's been in his life]

[iustitiae]

[damn look at them, good job boys]

Sure hope not - my reflection isn't a very good kisser.

[queensberry]

[uh-oh, jacob hiccups here. figuratively and literally]

Sh... shame. You must be. [solution to fluster: shove more food in mouth]

[iustitiae]

[which is perfectly fine, really, because jacob is pretty cute flustered in connor's opinion.]

Wanna find out?

[queensberry]

[step two: choke on food shoved into mouth. cute and sexy]

Well, I-- I'm not so sure. On the first picnic crash? Isn't that fast?

[iustitiae]

What's life without a little adventure?

[but he winks playfully. he doesn't really mean it. i mean, he would make good on it if asked but also hes mostly teasing.]

[queensberry]

Very boring.

[It's too bad Jacob is the biggest weenie, returning the wink with one of his own... before swallowing with a bit more uncertainty he intended to shhow.]

I try to be the opposite, but I don't know much more than the fact you serve delicious food.

[iustitiae]

Well, we can start with "Hi my name is Connor."

[see hes got this do not worry]

[queensberry]

Excellent start, Connor. I don't know how I can top it. Hmmm...

Maybe with "Hello, my name is Jacob."

[iustitiae]

Awesome. It's great to meet you, Jacob. Thanks for crashing my picnic.

[queensberry]

The pleasure is mine, Connor. Thank you for hosting this picnic.

[It takes him one last bite of his sandwich, the realization his sandwich is gone, and a defeated swallow before he finally cracks.]

I don't kiss much at picnics, or... at all, and I'm certain you deserve more experienced lips. I wouldn't want you to get in trouble, anyhow. [because you know, he's old, kissing hot boys is so illegal]

[iustitiae]

You only get experience by learning.

[it comes with that sweet 2014 ease. things aren't perfect back home but they're heading there. #itgetsbetter #whitegaymanprivilege]

It's not like I have a boyfriend or anything.

[it's not that he's naive enough to think everyone comes from a world where it isn't a problem, and, in fact, he knows people in hadriel who are definitely deep in the closet back home -- it's just, it isn't his first thought at the comment. it doesn't occur to him to think in those terms.]
