Who: alcheME!, some monkeys, & YOU.
Where: Outside the Hotel
When: Day 508, Afternoon

[ dottore and x are standing beside a small table that's got a couple of colored toy barrels on it. there doesn't seem to be anything amiss ( at least not at first glance ) but they've all got their wands out, so it may be best to err on the side of caution if you approach. ]

[ all of a sudden the ground starts to shake, a shrill chorus of chitters and chatters growing louder and louder until... dozens of rainbow colored monkeys ( some LORGE & some smol ) scamper out from around the nearby buildings in a chaotic troop. they're there to chew bubblegum and cause trouble, and they're all out of bubblegum... ]

Huh. Guess we know what that does now.

[ X doesn’t seem TOO concerned with the toy monkeys coming to life. Like. Obviously this is fine??? ]

It would appear so... [ the abrupt parade of screaming monkeys doesn't seem to faze him either, because he's already taking out a small black book from his sleeve. ] Echo, I need a hand, could you get me a pe- [ an androgynous mannequin in a lab coat with its head on crooked ambles over and shoves one of its limbs at dottore. ] -en.

[ an a for effort, but not the hand he had been looking for. ] Nevermind. Go... stand over there. [ he shoos it away and uses its limb to tap at his chin. ] Alright, well... in any case we'll be needing some help to collect all of these rogue monkeys. [ because, lbr, he can't be bothered to do it. ]

I'm sure some of the more creative people out there could even make it into some kind of game…


Or a ritual. We’re wizards or whatever, right? So here’s the deal: capture the monkeys and stick ‘em back in their barrels and we can end this little pr- I mean, summoning for once and for all.

[ Prank live + Ritual = 500 points for Alch and 350 for everyone else! ]

[ Look. It wasn't exactly his life's aspiration, but he's being the best lil plastic monkey he can be. ] [ Until, of course, he's not anymore, because he's successfully jumped out at at least one person, scare or no scare. ]

...On the one hand, at least I was more tangible? This one's weird.

[She shrugs.]

It just means you probably haven't been dead in your world. So, congrats.

But only probably, right?

[ A beat, then, very directly: ]

Are you still playing?

Yes.

[ Maybe a little more force than necessary and he reels himself back in and pushes out a sigh. ]

—This is the first card I don't love just hanging out as. [ Lips quirked. ] I'd rather swap before the game's over.

[ Proffering his card. ]

Shapeshifting into someone else, getting exorcised, and — well, sharing a memory would help a lot.
