IT IS TIME

[neigh_sayer]

Who: Alchemes and YOU
Where: Lobby
When: Mid Morning 65 (forward dated a bit, feel free to still do day 64 stuff!)

[Gooood morning/afternoon, Imeeji! When you stroll down into the lobby today, you'll find it has been TRANSFORMED. Sparkling alcheme curtains hang from the ceilings, sparkling crystal rocks everywhere, and all the tables have been arranged neatly, each with a candle in the middle. There is also food on each table--petit fours of varying flavors (or colors for you red eaters), finger sandwiches filled with either hummus or pimento cheese or something else dainty like that, and tea. So much fucking tea. There's like 2000pts worth of goods total, so plenty for people to snack on.

As for your hosts!! Alcheme is front and center, each wearing their snazziest or most handsome outfit. And they all have flowers!! Some may be real some may be folded out of paper, look we have a budget ]

Welcome, one and all, to the first ever Alcheme Fortune and Flirt!

Enjoy some small bites while we soothe and say.

Relax a bit, won't you? Brunch is on us!

The future is looking as bright as your eyes!

[there are no pranks here but there may be a couple of spray bottles on the tables that read "Anti-Gremlin" spray so you can spritz C if you feel distrust.]

[ooc: THIS IS A MINGLY LIVE!! Everyone who comments will get jumped by an Alcheme! Maybe two alchemes! MAYBE ALL? Who knows, but you will get someones!!

However feel free to also use this post for counter lives, other lives, or just to chill and talk to others and eat! Enjoy this blatant endorsement for a cafe!!.

And outfits for reference:
A (plus he is looking greyscale) B C (+bandana) E H (minus armor) J N X (but with MORE STARS)

also witch hats

ETA AND ALCHEME IS OUT!! we're still picking up current threads tho, and feel free to continue to use this post to jump others too! thank yall!]

...maybe...but maybe I should just go home.

[puzzlekeeper]

Is that what you'd prefer to do?

[nohalation]

I don't know.

[puzzlekeeper]

Well... why don't we walk back to your dorm, and if you decide you'd rather come back, that's fine too.

[nohalation]

The where?

[puzzlekeeper]

...

[ Holding out a hand ]

I'll show you.

[nohalation]

[grabs his hand]

Okay...

[puzzlekeeper]

[ Cool let's go on a field trip.

Leisurely leading her up to FIN dorm, which is apparently a BRAND NEW AND EXCITING PLACE??? ]

[nohalation]

[But maybe she is more nervous than anything!!!!]

I like it, right?

[puzzlekeeper]

You do. It's your home - where you keep your games and your candy and your... uh... chicken.

[nohalation]

Chicken!!!!!

[that sounds amazing]

[puzzlekeeper]

Yes. I think you named it "Kentucky"?

[nohalation]

Hmm . . . yes! That does seem very familiar!

[to the unit!]

[When they arrive, nothing seems monochrome. If you look at the white board though, you can see a whoooooooole bunch of notes were taken down, like the entire thing is scribbled.]

[puzzlekeeper]

[ He's peering around curiously just to be sure, eyes lingering for a long moment on the white board. Then he turns back to Angel. ]

Does this place seem familiar to you?

[nohalation]

[Looks around and waddles about, staring at the whiteboard.]

Oh . . . right, I wrote this so I wouldn't forget important stuff.

[Wanders into her room, which has like 400 origami paper cranes on the ceiling hanging or smth at this point.]

Oh yeah, this is my room! I remember!

[puzzlekeeper]

[ He's following behind her at a distance, watching as she points at this and that. ]

So the memories come back to you when you see them, I wonder...

[nohalation]

It is like . . . it just takes longer to remember them right now. I think. It is harder today than yesterday.

[puzzlekeeper]

Can you remember when it first started to happen? Was it yesterday, or earlier than that?

[nohalation]

[She will sit down on the sofa and think about this.]

I think when I stopped feeling sick from the last game is when I noticed my eyes looked different.

[puzzlekeeper]

[ hmmmm ]

... Who on your team was in that game with you?

[nohalation]

We were all alone when we played, but who was missing . . . Sho was there. Duality was there. Moreau was there. Sweet Tweet was there. Intensity and Infinity were not there.

[puzzlekeeper]

And yet Intensity is affected. I haven't seen Infinity yet to verify.

So I guess it can't be related to the last game...

[nohalation]

[Taps fingers together.]

I wish I could help more . . .

[puzzlekeeper]

Don't worry. Just answering questions helps.
