Who: Naughty little fishes
Where: Game Tower
When: Day 527

[So there you are, minding your own business on a completely normal day.]

[Then you blink —

[— and find yourself, and many other idols, in an unfamiliar room.]

[The room is large and round and made of glass, like a globe. ...No, like a fish bowl.]

[On the other side of the glass walls, you can see indistinct shapes moving around, but the glass distorts the light so much that anything farther than arm’s length is just vague smears of colors and shadow blending with your own reflection. But something is there. Possibly a lot of somethings. ]

[Two formless shapes approach the glass, and as they do, their images resolve into the shapes of a pair of twins, one grinning while the other pointedly looks away from his brother. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the one who actually looks cheerful about being here is the first to speak up:]

Guess what~? You’ve been chosen to play in our very first game. Isn’t that exciting?

[He throws his arms out theatrically.]

Especially after soooo many boring games. The audience is looking for excitement and thrills here! Why not take the chance to really cement yourself as the fan favorite while you have the chance? Heck, it might even fix your little... “problem.”

[There’s a beat of silence, and he moves to elbow his brother who shoots him a “hey what the hell?” look before reluctantly facing the gathered idols.]

...Make sure you protect yourselves. Otherwise...

[He just lets the thought trail off before looking away again. His brother leans on him, resting an elbow on his shoulder as though waiting for him to continue before finally giving up and shaking his head with a sigh.]

You heard him! Give this game all you’ve got - got it?

[Hang on, wasn't there a game just yesterday? Are some or all of your status effects still lingering?]

[Fortunately, it looks like this is one of those non-mandatory games, where you can just help yourself to some snacks and wander off if you want. Or you can stay a while and play some cards for points.]

[As usual, there's a lot of food and drink of every type, and especially warm drinks like hot chocolate and mulled wine to help take the chill off on such a cold winter day. There are plenty of comfy-looking couches and wing-backed chairs this time, too.]

[ you arrive in the game tower to the sound of a deafening siren, but there's no surreal transformation this time. the interior has already changed, looking like the inside of a submarine... if you had to guess! if the hissing pipes and flashing lights haven't already started grating on your nerves, then surely all of the random beeping and booping computers will. suddenly, all of the tv screens flicker to life, ]

[ ...dⁱ_ng! it looks like the elevators have arrived. ]

I really do hope you know that I don't take even an ounce of pleasure from making you play all of these ~awful games [ she's definitely all of the sincere. ] but here we are again. [ big biG BIG sigh. ]

I would be, should be, impressed that some of you managed to solve Shi's puzzles, but I don't really think that you d~i~d~. Instead, I believe there was a lot of guessing going on! [ squints accusingly!!! ] So if you enjoy guesswork so much, then have I. got the. game. for you.

Idols of Tokyo-F, hello~! For the uninitiated we're Rei and Shi, and tonight's something special... an exciting game all about teamwork! Er, wait, [ she cracks open her pink notebook and starts hastily skimming through it. ] I think I meant an explosive game all about teamwork... [ she looks to shi for some help. ] Explociting?

Yes, and we've took into consideration your feedback about not being able to affect the outcome of the game. Magnanimous of us, I know. If you're clever enough, then all of you will be able to walk out... relatively unharmed.

Now remember everybody! keep calm, keep talking~, and nobody explodes.·:*¨༺💀༻¨*:·.~! [ and just like last time rei smiles! giving a subtle flick of her fingers ala toodles, because, go on now, hurry along to your ~~doom~~ fun. ]

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.]

Who: All the kittens tangled in strings
Where: Imeeji
When: Day 512, late afternoon

[As everyone is finally starting to get their bearings with the strings and what they mean, and maybe learning a little about what they do, the kiosk and their phones will sound with a new alert.]

Thank you to all of our fans for participating in Imeeji's
🎉 4th Season Shipping Contest 🎉
All nominated ships and ship dynamics are now being processed. With the help of your idols we will be determining the winning ships.

[The game rules app on each person's phone reads:]

- Idols have been assigned relationship dynamics determined by their fans.
- Idols are encouraged to explore and display the dynamics of these relationships.
- Idols may also attempt to subvert the relationship to drive engagement.
- Winners will be determined by viewing numbers and fan engagement.
- Winners will have the option to switch relationships back to their original settings.
- The rest will be left on the setting they are on at the conclusion of the game, please develop your relationship as you like organically from there.

SEE SUGGESTED ACTIVITIES

[With a twang, those who are participating in the game will find that their strings have been scrambled. It may not be all of them, but most of the familiar ones suddenly have new colors, and there may even be entirely new strings to complete strangers--not every ship makes sense! Time to work out these new relationships and show people what that's all about to have a shot at fixing it.]

Who: You!
Where: Gametower > Rest of Imeeji
When: Day 512, morning

[You are yoinked to the game tower as if by a string attached to your hand. When you arrive, it's just the Gametower's normal lobby, except that every surface is covered in smooth colorful strings--lines spreading neatly everywhere and leading off in every direction, including back outside or up into the upper floors.

As characters wander around trying to figure out what's going on, they'll start to notice that there are colorful strings attached to them as well--mainly to their fingers, but maybe their arms, maybe their throats, maybe other places...?? These threads, the same as the strings around the lobby, float around them like gossamer, but can't be cut, and they glint and brighten when someone focuses on them, showing their color... Where does the other end go? If they try to follow them, they'll discover some of these are attached to someone else here, and some just fade off into the distance. Sometimes, when they find a person, the connecting thread will suddenly shorten no matter the color, tying the two body parts--and the two people--together, though it will probably slacken after a while as well.

In the middle of the lobby is a large touchscreen kiosk that reads:]

COLOR:⬜
MEANING:|________________

[If they go up to the screen they'll find they can use a color picker to put in the hex code for the color, and are free to write or dictate whatever meaning they think a color means. The kiosk also displays a couple color information lists that're empty at first but quickly starts filling up. If they check their phones, it'll also have this color/meaning form and a copy of the color lists displayed in the game rules app.]

[...Is that the game? For the moment, there doesn't seem to be anything else to it besides try to figure out who you've been tied to and what that means. Ominous...?]

Who: Idols!
Where: The Tower!
When: Day 506, evening.

[When the sun sets in Imeeji, there is an inexplicable fog that seems to role in, and a swarm of bats flutter through the sky as a gentle bell urges you to the game tower. On the way there you may see a stray black cat, or feel a bristle on your neck. SPOOPY.

At the Game Tower, idols will find it decked out in standard halloween-like fair, with yummy finger foods on a classy table for those who get hungry! Careful tho, as it seems like some raw meat samples or blood have been mixed in on the plates or punch bowls.

There are also a bunch of setups that weren't there before--a graveyard, a spooky mansion, a spacious pool, a seemingly endless dark forest, etc. Looks like there's a set up for different 'species,' should one need it.

Finally on a stage, there's a hologram of the Sheep Host. He's dressed like a dapper vampire, and sipping some grape juice.]

Fuufuufuu. . .that time again already. And it looks like we have a new baaa-tch of monsters~

Please, pick a card, and act on it to your heart's content! I wonder, can you tame the beasts inside of you? How scary~

[He keeps it short and sweet, and once everyone arrives and takes a card, the hologram disappears.]

[ Whoosh! Idols are summoned away to the Game Tower once more, or perhaps for the first time. The room they're in looks more like an outdoors stadium, with white chalk lining a very very very large grid—17 by 17 squares.

Dead center is a flag. It looks like the game must be simple—get the flag to win—but . . . who knows what's on every square? ]

No, I can, but you can imagine—I have to go. They're awake, and I should. Congratulate them.

Welcome back. You've passed your test. You have... struggled much, and therefore—

You're all winners. Congratulations. Please make sure to rest. Unfortunately I must be going now so no further questions goodbye—

Who: lost(?) idols
Where: ???? a mysterious courtyard
When: day 490

[ You awaken to the feeling of cool stone at your back, and a night sky overhead.

All around is a courtyard—a wide circle of marble tile, alternating black and white, interspersed with stone benches and flowerbeds and ornamental trees, all lit by the lambent gleam of strangely vivid starlight.

It is beautiful. And it is decaying. The stone is cracked; the flowers wild and overflowing between the cracked stone; the trees bent and twisted with age, the ground around them littered with fallen fruit. There is a fountain in the center of this space, but it too is broken-down: the water sits stagnant, and nothing remains of the design except a basin and the shattered base of a once-golden sculpture.

—And surrounding it all are not walls, but dense mounds of kudzu, climbing over itself until it towers as high as any watchtower.

How did you get here?
The last thing you vaguely recall is a sudden fit of drowsiness. There’s no sign of any guide or host around, and your powers don’t currently work either. In fact, if you have any corruptions, whether mental or physical, they too are … gone? No, perhaps that's not quite it; you can still feel them—faint, like a phantom limb. Invisible, and unable to affect you.
But there is one notable exception to the rule: all wings, corruption-induced or not, remain in place, as natural as the starlight.

There are other idols around you, all waking up the same way. Is this meant to be some kind of game…? ]

There's booth with free !MOON DRINKS! and mochi snacks (and gamer treats(tm) and gamer fuel(tm)) Also it's just like, full moon night time all day. How did this happen??? ]

I've broken into Tokyo-F to once more grant you all a reprieve from the totally grody nonsense that's been going on for the past however long! Like, zombies? That's the wooooorst!

Anyway, I decided to have a love festival! It's not just romantic love, too! It can be any kind of love you want because, like, all love is totes the ✨greatest✨!

Have fun and remember, don't abandon your friends or family or spouses to do stupid dumb "politics" and to "make money because we live in a society, dear"! Or else you'll like, risk the wrath of Divine Dragon Luna of the Moonlit Kingdom, Goddess of Love and Justice? And that totes sucks for everyone?

Fun for us, anyway.
