Who: Anyone
Where: Gametower
When: Day 513 evening

[Finally all participating idols are drawn back to the game tower by a string. As the last people enter, the threads covering everything start to turn clear and fade from sight. The kiosk and phones ping with the final announcement.]

Our winners for this event are:
☆ZRAEL! For really bringing their Most. The teasing, the spice, the way they twist the knife! All the fans can't wait to see their next reactions!
avante en garde & LiliS! Shout out to Burnt Cinnamon Roll and 🐺 for being too precious. These soft feelings just weren't meant to last.

Thank you again to our fans for all your votes and views. Whether you showed up to support the choices of your favorite idols or did a hate-watch campaign to break up a ship you didn't like, we appreciate your enthusiastic participation to the end!

[And that's the show! The kiosk sinks and disappears into the ground, the Gametower finally fully returning to normal. The idols on the winning units will be able to 'toggle' off the strings they've been carrying around throughout the game. All they have to do is take the string and will it back to normal and the color will run clear and the string fades from view, the connection safely back in the metaphysical realm.

But the rest will find their threads still linger. Maybe they were lucky and whatever colors they landed on before the game ended was close enough to their normal relationships, or something else more tolerable, or they were unlucky and it's the most wildly weird relationship they could have. Either way their threads still spill off them and at this point, if it's not what they want... they might have some feelings to process.]

Threaded | Flat

Winning Idols:
- Have an intuitive sense that they can manipulate their threads for the next 5 IC days.
- For strings between winners, they can simply set it back to normal which makes it disappear
- For strings that connect them to someone who lost, they can take on that other person's color, and set it back to normal which makes it disappear
- For strings connecting two losers, they can stick themselves in the connection, and set it back to normal which makes it disappear
- Unitmates who weren't in the game also benefit from string manip for the next 5 days.

Losing Idols:
- Stuck with a visible string for up to 3 IC days.
- Stuck with the final CR color, and if they happen not to like what it is...
- it can be addressed by having a Winner muck around with the string to fix it
- OR the color can naturally change by working through things with the person they're connected to and finding a new equilibrium or working back to where they were.

[ Lupine's expression is gonna be a mixture of relief for the win, alarm that there really could be permanent changes here to people's relationships, and....... processing the realization that there were crush feelings happening in that thread. Whoops. Sorry, Robin. ]

—Cool, so.

[ Totally raising his hand and his voice— ]

Anyone looking for a reset? Happy to help.

[ Whoever decided to give this much power to someone who removes free will for a living anywhere but here, she questions their motives to say the very least. Luckily she's way too Superego to actually make a bigger mess, and she immediately resets her side of all the strings. She'd have liked to keep some of it, but not when the relationship feels ill-gotten. ]

[ She'll give a reset to anyone wanting one, but also she's going to consider crawling in a hole and hiding for a week or so. ]

I'm honestly not sure if I'm glad we won this one. [ Walking around able to mess with people's feelings even if they're requesting or would prefer it is just very weird for her on like seventeen levels. ]
