Who: Open to everyone
What: #TeamTranquillity are in it to win it. Deciding to work together, the gang has taken over the library and converted it into a space for weary residents of Hadriel to catch their breath and just take it easy amid the intensifying competition in the city to invoke one emotion or another.
Where: The Library
When: March 15th to March 21st, duration of the event.
Warnings: Will Update if necessary!

[Hadriel's library has unfortunately seen little use; the books are either unreadable or cover material so random that only ~~Hope~~ someone who completely did not understand the concept of fun would have picked those books. Little wonder it's hardly frequented by Hadriel's residents.

But it's still a library: meaning, it's got plenty of space, and plenty of peace and quiet.

So with all the chaos erupting over the city? It could make the perfect sanctuary, a place to take a breather from the emotion wars. A place where a person could unwind over a cup of coffee, tea or hot chocolate, knit a sweater in peace, or even plunge themselves into pillow/blanket fort and just take a nap. A place to relax.

A place for Tranquillity.

Which is why Team Tranquillity has taken over the library and converted it into a mini R&R. Tables and chairs have been pushed to the side to allow for floor space, and comfortable chairs, sofas and even beanie bags, all in softer pastel colours, dot the empty space. A couple of tables and chairs have been left as well, so that those in need of them can use them as they'd like. And of course, the giant pillow fort bundled in one corner for people to unceremoniously throw themselves into.

The members of Team Tranquillity are all around to ensure that your time in the Tranquillity Space is as relaxing as can be. Some members are even offering services, ranging from massages to meditation, gentle exercises to a steaming hot cup of joe. Knitting classes, advice on handling emotional stress when under torture and trauma, and even some fortune-telling for light laughs.

And it's perfectly alright to drag a beanie bag to your own personal corner and just crash there for the day. No judgement from Team Tranquillity.

A message is sent out via the network to inform Hadriel's citizens of the new place in town to get away from it all. Drop by whenever, do what you need to relax and recharge. It's a stressful world out there, and sometimes we all need to take some time to chill out, right?

Welcome, to the Tranquillity Space.]

Well, hey. We can agree there. Emotions're gonna happen one way or another.

[No way of predicting the way the pieces are gonna fall either, not right away. And with the deck stacked against 'em and the flipping of a card - what's on the other side?

A joker, of course.]

[The wild card. There was always at least one in a deck unless you took it out. There's a lot that could be said about that idea but...

That's probably not the point of this prank.]

One way or another. Which is why I don't understand why the Gods are not willing to allow it to develop naturally. But that aside, I have some ideas.

[Chara's...not going to elaborate!]

Keep 'em handy. Just in case. Never know when you'll need 'em.

[Loudspeakers blaring memes is one thing. Personal prank exchanges are quite enough. 'Specially since he's, uh, pretty sure there ain't gonna be a ceasefire in the way of the promise he made.

That's fine. He can work around it.]

[Around it, not through it. That might be a better way of doing things.

For now. Until then they can have a few jokes.]

Of course. Some nice, friendly fun should always be handy. Like so.

[Chara makes a motion like they're trying to pull their hand off like Sans sometimes does, although the one without the bracelet on. Naturally they can't but Chara does make a 'pop' noise. Ta-da.]

[A pity no one ever taught him the "got your nose" trick. He never had a nose to get. "Got your nasal cavity" just don't really have the same ring to it.]

There, see? You get me. The gods gotta have a nicer time when the rest of us're happy, right?

[Chara's pretty sure they don't get him even on good days.

Also would he even let someone that close to his face?]

Except for Sorrow, Rage and Fear. Inevitably they will double their efforts if we are happy. Or maybe I am just a pessimist.

[Likely a little of both.]

Eh. I wouldn't blame ya.

[Way things're goin' down here, it ain't real surprising. Though it reminds him of a little chat he had fairly recently, just in case they're interested.]

Had a talk with Maketh the other day.

[It takes them a minute to remember. To say things got....hectic between that conversation and the things that have happened lately is an understatement.]

You did? What did you speak of?

[They have a guess, but so far assumptions have been a bit of a killer.]

I asked, and she said, uh...she said if you or Frisk were interested in the Guard, there's a place for you. Both of you.

[He would'a ventured Asriel the very same, but he doubts - given what he knows of Asriel and how protective everyone can be of him - that anybody'd be willing to entertain that notion.]

[No probably not. Chara's honestly surprised that he went and asked even after everything that happened lately. It was not easy to slip back into bad jokes and water balloons after an attempt at Erasure.

They pause for a moment before speaking.]

If...I am interested, what do I need to do?

[Or is the Guard willing to hire a child on the spot?]

All you'd have to do is talk to Maketh and let her know you're interested.

[They could conceivably go to Henry, but Maketh's the one he talked to direct about the whole business. The one who - like it or not - is most likely to be real understanding about the whole endeavor on their part.]

I wondered about Asriel, but...am I wrong in figurin' that ship wouldn't really sail?

I see. Thank you.

[They hadn't thought of it since....they wouldn't be in Hadriel, if all had gone the way Chara and Frisk planned. But since they have to stay here, Chara may as well find something to do.

...ah.]

I would prefer to not put him in danger but I should not speak for him. So if Asriel wants to help with the Guard, then he should.

Shouldn't be a problem.

[He can speak for himself well enough, even if he's pretty sure that, for good reason, Asgore wouldn't be too wild about that. Chara and Frisk, maybe; they're sturdier by definition, simply by virtue of being human.]

I figure you kids get in enough scrapes without bein' put in the line of fire. At least this way?

You'll have good people at your back. If you need 'em.

[They know that Asgore would have reservations about Asriel joining the Guard and Chara has the same ones. But....they're not going to take the choice of joining away from him.]

The best place for danger magnets is with more danger magnets? I suppose we should all stick together then.

[Chara does sound genuinely amused by the idea. Maybe they will give this person a call. Not that they're going to outright tell Sans that.]

I will have to think it over. Still, thank you for asking about it.

[He tips his shoulders in a shrug.]

Maketh's good people. Most of the guard is.

[Rey, Nick, Henry - they're solid. And he knows Rey and Nick, given how they'd joined the search parties without much of an urging, care more than enough about the kids to keep an eye on 'em.

About all anyone could ask for.]

They seem to have a reasonable set of heads on their shoulders. Although I have noticed that they seem to be a target of the general populace when things explode. Or their building is.

[Yeah, they saw those network posts and all that good stuff. Between suggesting a rally to take over the Guard HQ or just simply burn it, Chara's surprised they don't have to re-build at the end of every single event.]

But at least they are willing to listen to children.

[They ain't wrong there. It don't necessarily sit right with him, advocating that the kids put themselves in the line of fire. Even if they already are. Place may as well be a warzone with how many scrapes they keep gettin' into. With how often one of them has died. Or worse.]

'Least there's a safety in numbers.

[They hold back the 'guess that means we all can die together' dark joke that comes easily to someone like Chara. Don't. He did something nice for you, so don't.]

True. It's been suggested to me that I get out more anyways.

[First time for everything, right?]

Exactly. There's a whole world of rocks, rubble, and ruined buildings to take in out here. Can't be missin' out.

Ruined buildings are interesting at times.

[Never mind they nearly died in one, ahahaha.]

At the very least I won't be bored if I do join. So that is also a point in their favor.

There, y'see? Silver linings everywhere.

[Look at the pair of 'em. Regular paragons of optimism.]

Anyhow. I'll leave you to your tunes. [He winks.] Good stuff, right?

You just need to know where to look for them.

[Sure are. But as Chara said awhile back, there is something freeing about thinking the worst in everything. No standards are best standards.]

Questionably good. I hope you manage to make it out of here without getting chewed out or on.

[Because Chara's very sure that their comment of people being out for Sans's non-existent blood still applies.

Also watch your back Sans. Chara is on that list.]

You know me.

[He's a pickle-free guy, generally. Or he was, until he started up and gettin' himself all entangled in people and their lives. Funny how everything just kinda went downhill from there.

He tips a hand in a wry wave as he ambles off.]
