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...

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?

[iustitiae]

Honestly, yes. That seems like the kind of thing I've come to expect.

[skelebro]

Great. Sounds like work.

[Though honestly, he don't sound too fussed. Getting him fussed takes a bit more effort.]

Who's Batman, anyway?

[iustitiae]

He's a superhero but he doesn't have powers, he's just like a rich dude who makes a bunch of shit with his money.

[#comics]

[skelebro]

Really? Wow.

[Way to disappoint, Bats. Better hope you never end up down in the murdercave.]

How's that count as a superhero?

[iustitiae]

He still saves people, I guess.

[skelebro]

From what? Financial deficit?

[iustitiae]

[connor laughs]

No, from supervillains.

[skelebro]

Well, maybe we could use a guy like him down here after all.

[Maybe Sato or Yukari don't much qualify as "supervillains," but they certain smirk and laugh and are just generally destructive enough to count in his book.]

[iustitiae]

[lets not forget hux]

We've got superheroes already. They're as powerless as us to stop all this shit from happening.

[skelebro]

[lord have mercy let's not forget hux]

Maybe up against the gods, sure. But up against people down here? Like, uh, for instance - the guy with the bright idea to light up the City Guard.

[iustitiae]

People are so stupid.

[skelebro]

You're tellin' me. Bet that guy's workin' for Rage this go around.

[Either that, or Confusion. But that's just Sans makin' a wager.]

[iustitiae]

If he blew something up, I'm pretty sure Rage has got his number.

[skelebro]

Guess we should keep our eyesockets peeled for anyone totin' dynamite around.

[Things've exploded enough 'round here, he would think.]

[iustitiae]

And then, what? Call the Human Torch?

[skelebro]

I was thinkin' more along the lines of the City Guard, but "Human Torch" probably works too.

[Hard to go wrong with a name like that.]

[iustitiae]

Okay, yeah, them too. Maketh is pretty badass.

[skelebro]

She probably counts as some kind of superhero.

[iustitiae]

Agreed. She takes better care of the newcomers than anyone.
