DEAL OR NO DEAL - OH NO edition

[idolpro]

Who: You
Where: Game Tower
When: Day 344

[When you step out of the elevator and enter the game tower, you'll find yourself walking right into a giant ball pit with loud, hyperactive music playing overhead as always and everything is flashing bright neon colors everywhere.

Anyway Left is running this game. Surprising, I know.]

HELLOOOOOOOOO~

Man, guys, when am I just gonna STOP getting promotions? All of my co-workers just get so sad seeing me in their offices because they know I belong in greater and better places.

It's too bad for them, huh? Not like they can try and stop me~

RULES

[idolpro]

WELCOME TO DEAL OR NO DEAL, where you hope that you escape the game with the least amount of pain possible!

♦ There are three rounds and twenty suitcases. At the start of the round, everyone must choose a box. This box cannot be changed. Whatever is in this box will be your "punishment" and "final ranking" at the end of the game.

♦ Each round, you must eliminate the remaining boxes to reveal the punishments that are NOT inside your chosen box. Based on what you've eliminated, Left will offer you a deal that you can take instead of your chosen box. These deals are based off of what has been eliminated. If you choose to take the deal, you forfeit your suitcase, but you're guaranteed to know what your punishment is vs risking getting a worse punishment.

♦ You want to receive the lowest ranking suitcase or deal out of every unit. Each suitcase has a "rank" of 01-20. The lower the better! Deals will also have a rank attached so you will know what your final score is if you happen to take the deal.

♦ At the end of Round 3, you are given a choice to keep your suitcase or take the final deal.

♦ You can see what boxes you've eliminated and what punishments are left on the Board link in your room!

♦ Everyone on a team suffers the consequences.

♦ Punishments listed on the rank table are generic categories and will be adjusted for your final punishment based on squick list. If you get the parasites category, but you have a parasites squick, you might get "parasitic thoughts that won't escape your brain" or "the site of bugs in your vision all the time" etc etc. Squick list is here.

♦ There are three blank suitcases and they're all actually worth the same rank, I'm just putting 1, 2, 3 to make it easy for my brain. Just note if you get a blank suitcase, you automatically win.

[deicider]

[Cardinal has to spend a few moments leaned over, holding themself and breathing quickly while they shake. Being cold is fine; being so cold you can't move is not fine.

But they look okay now!]

[worthathousand]

[ wrapping her arms around them—for the comfort, yes, but for the shared warmth too ]



...That one bothered you more than I would have expected.

[softlyfalling]

[ ...

a long blink, standing a little more upright— ]

...ah, we—won?

[heavyliesthecrown]

We took a little bit of a gamble in the end, there. But ultimately it was in our favor and it paid off.

[heavyliesthecrown]

[ He's a little stiff, before the rest of the cold melts away, like it had barely happened at all. Even if he still feels chilled.

He just slumps in relief. Thank goodness the box he picked wasn't the worst possible outcome. It feels as though a weight has been lifted off his chest. ]

We made it.

[worthathousand]

[ she rests a hand on his shoulder a moment ]

We made it. Thank you for sharing your luck with all of us, Tsukasa.

[purrrnicious]

[Hackles raised (complete with tail floofed), she's got her arms wrapped around herself, still shivering off the last of the cold and looking around in alarm –– first to establish her own situation, then to look for Her People.]

[softlyfalling]

—K-kohime, you're all right?

[ just one last reflexive teeth chatter, because. phew ]

[wonderlandgirl]

[The pain--

[--honestly, it's something she's getting used to. But it's still enough to have her curling in on herself, eyes wide, trying to regulate her breathing, in the hope that somehow it will help. She's been stabbed - are those pencils buried in her flesh? - over and over and over, leaving her lying wide-eyed in a slowly-spreading puddle of her own blood.

[Levi-kun probably isn't here, is he?

[It's that thought, more than any other, that has the tears starting to trickle from her eyes.]

[we_meet_again]

[From his spot next to her on the floor, he reaches out and takes her hand.]

[we_meet_again]

[Well... he has been stabbed. A lot. His body is covered in small, blood-soaked perforations, some of which still have... pencils? Pencils, sticking out of them. There's one straight through his hand, several broken ones in his back, and his arms, chest, and thighs are a mess of blood and little yellow splinters.]

[He's winded, and once he stumbles out of the elevator, he slowly lowers himself to rest on the ground while he catches his breath. He hangs his head and lets blood drip from one empty eye socket.]

[quickpersuader]

[Ran to Wednesday first, but since you're right here they're checking on you too.]

...We need a healer. We can't remove these until someone can patch the wounds...

[time5kip]

[ That was considerably more annoying to deal with than he expected but who cares they won, so suck it game ]

[untiltheend]

[Yeah they really nailed this game, didn't they? Wiping some cold sweat from his eyes, huff...]

I suppose you deserve credit for being right. [It was "just mildly annoying" after all. ...Jesus, Sebastian, what does it take for you to consider an effect to be "bad".]

[sancrimony]

[ as soon as he's conscious again he rips off what he can of the bandages, so by the time he reaches endgame he looks. pretty normal. bandages on sensitIVs aren't weird, and in terms of injuries there are a few red lines on his face like maybe they wrapped around his face or something and he's rubbing his nose like it's sore, but that's about it.

there are still bandages on his neck, just like there are on his wrists and arms, though most notably on his neck they look so tight and so thick that it's hard to imagine they aren't digging into his skin—the pinch at his neck is visible, lending some credence to the theory. most of all, his breath is labored, at times faint and at times deep but regardless audible, hissed in and out.

once he's appraised his nose's situation, he pulls the rest of the bandages—the ones that were undoubtedly on his face before—and bats them to the side with one hand, the other dedicated to picking at the bandages at his neck (though markedly slow and clumsy in movement) while he looks around, examining the damage dealt to the other units with a hazy, somewhat unfocused gaze. ]

[bondsofsuffering]

Lucifel? What happened?

[enlightenedatheist]

[ coming out with lacerations and tears all over his clothing and body, undoubtedly bleeding a moderate amount. emotionally though? he looks, mostly, like. annoyed. ]

. . . Feel like I rolled around in a rosebush.

[bondsofsuffering]

[So naturally he's here.]

Was that the punishment, or is there other stuff I should be looking out for before I start healing?

[Reaching out to numb his pain, though.]

HERE 2 HEAL

[bondsofsuffering]

[Hello, this sIV wasn't in the game but he's sure busting in now with a backpack full of supplies, looking around to assess the damages and especially locate other sIVs and LiliS - though he'll begin healing anyone who is in need of it, naturally.]

Describe the damages and I'll see what I can do.

Re: HERE 2 HEAL

[nutsandrevolts]

[WAILS]

My unit's dyin', ya gotta save 'em!

[romanticlove]

[It hurts, but she's still alive. She tries to stay standing, but it hurts to move. There are just so many pencils that she looks like a pin cushion. There is also quite a bit of blood staining her clothes, trickling out of her wounds and spreading out around her.

There are pencils in her arms and her torso and legs and a few lodged into her neck here and there. She can't speak, but she can see. Should anyone approach, they'll notice that her eyes are glowing softly as she takes in her surroundings, having stumbled from the elevator to join her unit.]

[quickpersuader]

[HELLO they are here to check on you guys. Their tone is quiet and yet firm as they take in the state of their unit.

They also see those eyes, and when they approach, it's slowly, voice gentle.]

Please try to avoid moving too much. Unfortunately, it isn't safe to remove them until we have a way to stem the blood.

[Though she is, of course, still losing it at a steady stream already.

Dammit.]

[forgottenmercy]

[also missed the game but if you need healing, can do that. and looking around for his unitmates]

[worthathousand]

Persephone!

[ She can't actually come directly to him right now, since she's currently supporting Wednesday's weight; instead, she has to call across the room ]

Over here, if you can—!

[firstworldproblem]

[Coming out and nearly falling into a wall before sliding down it face in his hands. He’s clawing at his skin, his eyes, and it is taking a lot of willpower to just not scream.]

[deicider]

[?!

Cardinal dashes over and drops to their knees beside him. They grab for one of his hands to keep him from clawing himself.]

Alexander, let me see—

[mind_blown]

[when he emerges, he looks, in general, not too bothered]

... Well, guess we got lucky.

[softlyfalling]

Ah—good to see, then.

[ although her teeth are chattering a little, still. ]

[beeknighted]

[Well that kinda sucked. Covering his chest with his hand, frowning]

Huh.

[backstory]

Scone...?

[ Moving over to check on him. ]

[adorabilities]

[how does she keep coming out of games with broken bones-- but it's hard to tell? clothes, man. they hide the bruises and broken bones so well.

she just looks dusty, and her breath is oddly paced as she stumbles out of their room.]

B-Boulders... Okay...

[purrrnicious]

––Aster!

[Whup bounding over on all fours, and she looks just fine.]

[runawayprince]

[Well, that sure sucked, but could honestly have been worse. Maybe?]

Ow.

[He's covered in cuts and tears all over his body and his clothes have been ruined (again) but he's otherwise okay?]

Of course it would be plant themed....

[He's looking around for friends and ignoring how much his wounds ache.]

[bondsofsuffering]

[SUP.]

Another rough game... Is there anything besides the cuts that I should be aware of before I start healing?

[Reaching out to numb his pain in the meantime!]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[He's battered and bruised, cradling an arm in against himself, but his clothes hide most of the damage, so there's that, at least]

[He's on his feet, though, and alert enough to scan the crowd for his people]

[420blazeit]

[ she immediately runs over to him the moment she spots him. she's already in her henshin, because she can't afford not to be. ]

Hurricane!

[420blazeit]

[ as soon as she steps out of the elevator she henshins and drops to one knee. she's glad she's not blind ( again ) because that would have been hell on earth, er, hell on... hell??? whatever. but this, she's not sure if this is better or worse, and not only that... she feels responsible. she bites back a sigh and gets back to her feet to look around for her teammates. ]

[leaveofabsence]

[ Honestly, he is not going to recognize her if she walks by henshin-ed.

Don't mind this angry grandpa suffering a heavy dose of rock betrayal. ]

[widenessofthesea]

[ she's not quite holding her breath, but—

she did forget to breathe for a moment, there. you could be forgiven for missing it entirely. her eyes definitely aren't a little damp and it's definitely an optical illusion if you think they are. ]

Well. I think I can be satisfied.

[mind_blown]

Looks like you made it.
