imeeji_frontstage | HSS Celebrates The Lunar New Year (a little late)

Who: HSS and Invited guests
Where: HSS Dorms
When: FORWARD DATED to Day 91, afternoon into evening

[ Heart Soldier Senshi's dorm has been completely redecorated today. Stepping off the elevator and onto the eleventh floor, you'll immediately find yourself greeted by rows of red-and-gold paper lanterns dangling from the ceiling and strings of colorful holiday lights set at the edges of the hallway. They light the way to the open doors, and inside yet more lanterns and twinkling lights festoon the the ceilings. Here, too, the walls have been lined with paper depictions of cranes, dragons, magpies, and the sun, a world of scarlet and gold. Underneath all this, the main table has been set with a crimson tablecloth and on top of that, plate after plate of traditional foods have been set out for guests to take from buffet style.

The bedrooms, too, are open-doored and emptied** of their usual furniture. Instead, they've been filled with chairs and tables obviously procured from the lobby downstairs and identically decorated for the occasion. Guests will find they can easily intermingle between the rooms to visit with their hosts and the other guests as well as eat. At each place-setting, guests will find confetti poppers, mini sparklers, and colorful squares of paper and tacks for guests to write a wish to hang on the long string that spans the back wall.

And for those people finished eating and looking for something fun to do, the arcade room is open and available with a whole host of games for competitive play. ]

[** All of the unnecessary furniture has been tinified thanks to AlcheME and stuffed into the closets should anyone care to go looking for it. ]

[ *** Although we've done our best to ping everyone who's invited, some of you play multiples and there's always the chance we could have missed someone. If you're uncertain if your character would have been invited or not, you can refer to this list. You can also DM any HSS member if you have questions on Discord or Plurk. ]

Ahhh...! Cute!

No NPCs. You can't throw this one.

I can try.

B, you can't---

[Waitaminute]

. . .

[Slow smirk and:]

You're on.

We'll see how it goes.

I think the actual ending is I hurt myself accidentally.

But let's give it a go!

[Going to start with selecting the hard difficulty because Intensity is just that person.

And the least cutesy mascot possible.

Please, Hell. He has an image to uphold]

You're on!

[is there a vs mode? B will match the difficulty and pick the cutesy cool~~~ mascot. they probably have shades or a fun hoodie]

[[Did I just type "you're on" twice in two tags. No more half asleep tagging for me. I apologize.]

[Definitely a hoodie. And baggy clothes and probably a cutesy animal to boot.

Difficulty is: HARD.

As if it would be anything else.

And yes, there is a versus mode. Pfffft. Co-op is for scrubs and paladins!]

I'm feeling generous. You can pick the song.

[Time for But--no, it's always Butterfly. Not this time. CAPTAIN JACK COME SING FOR US]

Let's do this.

[The first 17 seconds go well enough. If button mashing is considered winning anywhere.

But then the lyrics start and Intensity visible recoils - missing the next two beats:]

The fuck was that?

[Wait. SHIT. Gotta get back on target. STAY FOCUSED.]

What? It's a great song, right?

[im fine :)]

It's a mutilation of a classic!

[With the white button being smashed exceptionally hard with the exclamation making it only a GOOD score instead of PERFECT or GREAT.

Also how dare you have a better score than him!

(Intensity, this is why you don't challenge people from song based canons to rhythm games)]
