TIS THE SEASON FOR A GAME

[idolpro]

[A RINGING BELL LEADS YOU TO THE GAME TOWER and also like, y'know, your normal phone alert

Today, somehow, it's a winter wonderland! there's a few inches of soft powdery snow all around, a pond for ice skating, and...several cabins?? and kitchen booths and a crafts station?? There's also mistletoe, a living room set and tree. hm.

Your host's pre-recorded hologram is there as well! It's the sheep demon from before apparently, wearing an ugly sweater of a wolf wearing a wool ugly sweater, and sipping a hot cocoa]

Deck the halls with boughs of holly, baa-baa-baa-baa-baa-baaaaaa-baa-baa-baa-baa~!

Hello again, sweet idols! Thanks for that entertaining week, it's a shame all the guests are gone. . .

But on to the future~! It's time for the holiday special! What's that? It's only been-- Whatever, whatever, I'm being paid to host! I am being paid, right. . .?

Huuuuhuu. Anyway~! Today our dear idols will be showing us some classic holiday spirit! All idols may pick 1~ to 3 tasks, and act them out. It is rather free form; feel free to perform with a group, your team, one partner, however you choose.

And the scenes for picking, aaaare~!

~Cabin in the woods! Oh nooo, there's a blizzard outside, and only one bed and one blanket, what will you doooo?
~Mistletoe! Huhuhuuu did you get caught under it?
~A sweet surprise! Create and decorate a gingerbread house or christmas cake!
~Holiday dramaaaa. What's a holiday without a bit of spicy drama?
~Sweater time! Make some matching sweaters. Ugliest one gets a prize, maybe, I can't read the last part on this cue card.

Oh, and here's a fun part: at least one winning team will be determined by vote from the idols themselves! Isn't that just, lovely?

Now, jingle those bells, dears!

[also feel free to assume your idol outfits are magically more winter themed right now]

[she didn’t grow up with this stuff either, but at least she was around last time this happened]

Hey, pouty guy, you playing?

[gigadevilbreaker]

'Pouty guy'...? Seriously?

[Man, you have a bad day around the BAD ENDs and now you're 'pouty.']

[searingedgelord]

[look she saw you pout ok

Also she’s a shit]

Seemed accurate.

[gigadevilbreaker]

...All right, eat-your-words girl. You wanna play, let's play.

[searingedgelord]

[oh fun, he’s that type huh]

Okay. Which scenario?

[gigadevilbreaker]

[He's got rowdy has-something-to-prove googles on now......]

Take your pick-- I'll do all of'em if that's what it takes.

[searingedgelord]

Okay. The cabin, then.

[gigadevilbreaker]

Cold day in Hell, huh. All right.

[Let's check out this rustic little cabin then]

[searingedgelord]

[yep, heading inside. Silk is used to “rustic” so this is fine]

Could be worse, I guess.

[gigadevilbreaker]

[As soon as the door creaks closed behind them, the wind starts whipping violently outside, and the temperature plummets. The speed of it startles even Griffin, who goes to the window-- only to see a sheet of white outside.]

Holy-- that way fucking fast.

[searingedgelord]

[glances at the door, then the window, and sighs]

I guess we shouldn’t be surprised.

[gigadevilbreaker]

This ain't real, right? Everyone else outside's still okay?

[He slides the window open juuust a touch and-- THE BLAST OF FREEZING WINTER AIR DEFINITELY FELT REAL. SHIT DAMN HE SLAMS IT BACK SHUT.]

[searingedgelord]

Yeah, they should be. After that last game the producers probably want to shift the mood again.

[watches him open the window and close it again with a look that says “why would you do that”]

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Shrugs and leans against the wall like he totally didn't just do that. No biggie. It's cool.]

...Just checking.

[searingedgelord]

Yeah, okay. Makes sense.

So, how do you want to do this?

[gigadevilbreaker]

So there's only one blanket, and it's freezing cold... we gotta warm up somehow......



Y'wanna fight for the bed?

[searingedgelord]

[she snorts]

I don’t care about sleeping on the floor. I want the blanket.

[gigadevilbreaker]

All right. Winner calls dibs.

[searingedgelord]

Works for me.

COUNTERLIVE - DUEL

[gigadevilbreaker]

It'll be bad if there cabin gets fucked, so-- let's stow the powers.

[And just so they can make some extra Points out of this: he punches the media attention app on his phone.]

Now, let's get fired up!

Re: COUNTERLIVE - DUEL

[searingedgelord]

Powers seem like the sort of thing to only break out if you're really interested in hurting someone anyway.

Okay, let's go.

Re: COUNTERLIVE - DUEL

[gigadevilbreaker]

Aw, Jay an' I fight with powers all the time!

[Taking a wrestler's stance, he sizes her up and-- lunges, trying to gamble on being able to get his arms around her and knock her to the ground]

Re: COUNTERLIVE - DUEL

[searingedgelord]

Yeah? Do you always pout when you lose?

[Anyway she's hella fast, and dodges and ducks, going for an attempt to sweep his legs out from under him]

Re: COUNTERLIVE - DUEL

[gigadevilbreaker]

I'll have you know we're tied!

[While Griffin isn't as fast as Silk, he's a compact bundle of instinct and Style. His feet are swept, but he goes from falling into a roll, then-- spinning, swinging his legs in a wild arc like a breakdancer. If Silk wasn't expecting it, then she'd be met with a faceful of boot.]

Re: COUNTERLIVE - DUEL

[searingedgelord]

[Silk has moves like that of her own, her fighting style is very heavy on fancy kicks and and acrobatics. Plus, Oni had a breakdancing style of fighting. So she is able to anticipate and block]

So you do lose, and do pout. Got it.
