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...

[Well she is right. "Plaster every available surface" is definitely their aesthetic. Humming quietly, the set their pen down, content in watching her work for the moment.]

Not really? I think I'm supposed to be.

[...]

Not very good at it, though.

[survivorsguilt]

I guess I'll just respectfully disagree. I mean, take me for instance. Didn't give a shit about this whole hope thing until I saw you getting involved.

[Uh, wait.]

What do you mean, 'supposed to be'?

[save_theworld]

[They smile, not really arguing the point. But she decided to help on her own, and that... they can't force her to do that, can they? She should give herself a little more credit.]

Um, back home- there's some stuff I need to do. Nobody else can.

[They smile, and it's such a bright expression, in comparison to what they say.]

But I messed up too much.

[survivorsguilt]

[She doesn't like the sound of that, or the ill-fitting expression on their face.

Nobody else can.

There's a whole lot more like you, Ellie.

Ain't done a damn bit of good, neither.]

Everyone messes up.

[save_theworld]

I know.

[But it's not the same. They don't say it. They don't even really need to, even if they don't realize it.

The words are pretty loud anyway, sitting in the space between them. It's not the same.]

...I think I have enough paper to put something up in every street.

[survivorsguilt]

[She still hears it. Knows it to be true.

It doesn't fix or change a damn thing. For them, she wishes it would.]

Pretty ambitious. But hey, I'm down. ...Wanna see how fast we can do it?

[save_theworld]

Heck yeah.

[Whatever stops them both from thinking about this, they're game.

Hopefully, this is enough.]
