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...

Fair enough.

[ Most of them are complainers, she thinks, including herself in that cheery bunch. And why not? Their situation is awful, to say the least. ]

It does. [ At which she chuckles lightly. ] The whole thing feels a bit like a game, really.

[dedikated]

( There are those who prefer it to home, which makes Kate wince at the thought. Home might not be perfect, but it's a damn sight better than this place. )

Think we should start a bettin' pool on who wins?

( Everyone can put forward their best favours or scavenged items and they can have a ball. )

[closerift]

I think you would have a luckier time betting on those who lose. That is: all of us.

[ An eternal optimist, that Inquisitor. ]

[dedikated]

Worse odds.

( She snorts into her drink. )

Won't win owt on a bet like that.

[closerift]

"Worse odds?" I would say those are none at all.

[ She smiles sideways, chuckling. ]

Fine. Not that bet, then.

[dedikated]

( Yeah, no one's winning there. Kate takes a long drink. Really, losing and drinking are the two things most guaranteed to happen here. )

Guessin' Rage's team'll have it easy.

( Pissing people off usually is pretty easy. )

[closerift]

I'm frankly offended I wasn't chosen for that one. [ She laughs, shaking the bracelet around her wrist. ] I think I'm much better-suited for Rage.

[ Hope? It's... humbling, almost. She doesn't think much of her ability to inspire hope, even after all this time. ]

[dedikated]

( Hey, she tried (subconsciously tried, whatever) to kill Hope months ago, helped wreck the city, and yet-

Somehow she's on the same team. )

Coulda had Delight. Just invite everyone drinking.

( Faith had the right idea there. )

[closerift]

All right, Delight is fine, too. [ She has to admit, with a little prejudice. ] She does have the right idea.

[ Having given them the bar, after all. To that, she raises her glass and polishes it off. ]

More for you, too?

[dedikated]

( What would they do without the bar? Kate doesn't want to think about it, since Delight turned up soon after she did. It was a difficult enough transition without having to give up booze, as well. )

Aye.

( To drinking, for too long. )
