Who: Everyone!1!
Where: The Game Tower
When: Day 81, evening

[As soon as you enter the tower, your phone beeps that you've received a text, and you find you have this one MASSIVE text, all in painful to read lime green text, you'll probably need to scroll up]

Uncover the secrets of your fellow idols! Win fabulous prizes!

Four of your ~deepest secrets~ have been written down on decks of cards! (check your pockets)! As long as you have your cards on your person, you will be considered 'playing the game' and won't be able to lie! (Oh no, it's a truth game!)

(Sort of!)

The oooonly thing you can lie about is... the specific secrets we've given you!

Do your best to keep your own secrets hidden from your fellow idols, while trying to uncover theirs! Can you spot the lies in the truth, and uncover that which friends and enemies alike would rather stay hidden?

We know what you're thinking, but don't worry! They can't just beat you up and steal your cards, that'd be bo~ring! Contestants can only see what is written on a card after you confirm they've deduced your secret and you hand them a card (you won't be able to lie about that either, btw!)

Of course, there's no rules on how you get someone to talk about their secrets. Have a duel! Make a bet! Or is anyone interested in a little interrogation pla~y ;D~?

We've also included hints for each secret on your cards. You can ask someone for a hint and the first three times they have to tell the truth, but after that there's no guarantees, so make it count!

If you leave your cards in your dorm or something, you're OUT OF PLAY! That means you won't have the truth effect anymore, but you also can't interrogate others~ Only idols with decks on them are free to engage in this battle of wits!

Oh, and obviously you can't play in your dorms, this is a game show after all, so stay where we can see you if you want it to count! But the ambitious are free to have LIVES for the game if you want to rack up some extra points!

Prizes will be awarded for:
1. Unit(s) with the most cards overall
2: Unit(s) with the most cards belonging to their unitmates
3: Unit(s) with the most cards from other units
4: Audience pick: Most clever~
5: Audience pick: Most thrilling!
6: Audience pick: Most surprising!!

No rules other than to get points, do your best, idols!!

backstory: Do not take (For the princess I would!)
[personal profile] backstory
Who: 'Leviathan' (Kija) and everyone
Where: All the dorms. Also outside.
When: Day 80, Late Midday and early evening.

[sensitIV]

[He is still really...rather confused. But now that he's calmed down some, eaten, and changed into the fashion of this land (Or at least, of this unit) he is feeling better. His apparent unit color is Seafoam Cyan. He can't decide if it's more green or more blue, but in the end, it doesn't really matter to him. Clothes are clothes, and with a bit of help from his housemates, he's figured out how to wear the outfit.]

Are you sure the eyepatch is not a bit much?

[He isn't injured, so why hinder his vision... but if that is the way things are done, then he'll do what he must!]

The quicker I earn points, the quicker I am able to regain my memories, correct? I have decided! I will do a live today!!

[It's better to start now than to waste time, after all!]

[Live!!]

[Kija still barely understands the purpose of the videos. If he does something in front of one of the magic devices, everyone will be able to see it. It is...supposed to be a performance of some type, like a play, he supposes. But in the end, he thinks it might be easier to start by doing one of these 'lives'. All he has to do is a medical check-up. To be honest, he isn't sure how qualified he is for the job, but it accomplishes a few birds with one stone. He can meet the other groups, get some points, and maybe learn something about medical treatment. Possibly. He's not really sure yet.

Dressed up in the clothes his team helped him figure out earlier, he goes from one floor to the next, and knocks on the door.]


Excuse me. [He bows politely when the door is opened.] I have just arrived today. I am here to greet my new neighbors. In addition, I would like to inquire into if anyone here requires a wellness check-up.

[Of course, he can be found wandering the halls in any part of the building, or else getting some fresh air outside and exploring the outdoors, if the building occupants aren't home.]

[ ssssso.

there's a new kid in town. in avante, specifically. probably not actually remarkable in and of itself really. except- ]



WAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

[ he's standing in one of the archways of the patio dressed in uh. this. just. laughing. he is 10 floors up and he's loud enough that the entirety of fauxkyo could probably hear him. ]

FINALLY, I HAVE ARRIVED! After years-- no, EONS of wandering lost, I have finally found my way from the darkness!

Hello, world! Listen to my voice and hear my vow! As The King, I will treasure everything you have to give me! No matter who you are-- no matter what you are-- I love you! Because you exist in this world, I love you! I'm so happy to meet you~~!! ☆

Who: Hunger Games Participants
Where: The Game Tower
When: To be Determined

[ You walk through a door. Or maybe you walk down the street, only to have it fall away between one step and the next. You blink and you're one place, then the next with a lurching sensation of falling, and land somewhere else.

This… is probably the game tower, and the new way they've been summoning you, but it's not the Game Tower as you've seen it before.

On your cellphone, you hear Exael's voice, and if you look at it you can see her too. She's dressed up today on a couch with a microphone she's taking back from someone else — they must have just finished answering her as you get the chance to tune in. She nods, face and voice all cheer as she takes the mic back.

"So there you have it, everyone! The celestial plan behind this iteration of the Hunger Games! Lend everyone your thoughts and prayers, because it sounds like they're going to need it!"

The rules-- well, goals, more like-- then dominate your cellphone screen. ]

Where: Avante En Garde dorms (and just outside)
When: Day 75, late morning

[ REGARDLESS of whether it's a good idea or not, Cap has Avante's doors wide open today! Partially because they've already had visitors, and partially because she's about to take memories and she has no idea wtf is going to happen.

Stop by and watch a newbie take her first memories? Or just stop by in general, that works too. ]

[ Your phone buzzes. it looks like it's from #poll, just like before: ]

Producers: I know you guys are busy, buuuuut
Producers: You got another goal! Sooo!
Producers: For 300,000 points, you can get something - or someplace! - nice. Maybe you want a spa? A cute cafe? Whatever it is, it'll be shared by your community, isn't that nice? And you get to choose what it is, too!
Producers: Suggest a location here, and we'll send an official poll sometime soon. You know how it goes!
Producers: Maybe a new kissing spot?
:)

Who: Everyone
Where: Hotel Lobby and surroundings
When: Day 72, Morning

[The Live Pink calls this morning is a lot more showy in tone, very wink-wink nudge-nudge compared to some of his previous ones.]

Heeey, ya kiss fiends! Last night get pretty wild for people?

Well, there'll be no more of that today--[gives an exaggerated finger wag at the camera] at least not in here. I'm instituting a no-kissing zone, starting from inside our suites to the lobby doors! It's fine ta take the rest of the city, but a line's gotta be drawn somewhere... probably! [He sounds like he's joking, but there may be some people that'd actually appreciate that. He doesn't linger on it too long though, grinning a little wider here.]

Soooo, what happens if ya've broken or plan ta break that rule~? Discipline, obviously!

It's inta the kissy box with you! [Holds up a sample shoebox that's been wrapped in shiny giftwrap, inside which is a little Christmas light... for mood. Behind him there are probably at least a couple helpful AlcheME! members also waving cheerily... or making terrible villain faces.] A Seven-Minutes-in-Heaven style detention is just what you 'n other smooch stalkers deserve, ta think about what ya've done! Or, ya know, work stuff out 'n come back with a refreshed resolve ta keep things clean ♥~?

So watch out if you're lookin' ta make trouble, okay?


((THIS IS A DOUBLE LIVE, WHICH IS MOSTLY MEANT TO RUN ITSELF. Participants get 300pts o/ 450 for Live runners 'n their units
- Feel free to top-level with the scenario and play mingle style.
- People will be willingly or dubiously willingly shrunk down and shoved in a box to play 7 minutes in heaven dressed up as a punishment for too much smooching.
- People may or may not get pranked and speed-shoved in a box with someone random and their box rubber-banded shut. It's not like... difficult to get out since everyone still has their normal strength, but you get Live points and maybe an interesting scenario for the Mistletoe Game if you stay...
- Half of the boxes probably just have a small light and are lined with soft tissue-paper, but some of them may be Themed, with stolen library sofas, fake paper clothes, a big fresh silky flower to sit in, etc. Feel free to make stuff up as long as it'd be easy to make from junk.
- You may not have been shrunk to the same size relative to other people, :|b extra size difference
- People will be returned to their normal size if they leave their box after the seven min mark, or feel free to assume an AlcheME! missed them if you want longer. They'll go around growing people back to normal upon Live wrap-up, whenever that is!.))

Who: You!
Where: Game Tower (for now)
When: Day 71, afternoon

[ It's still snowing outside. . . ! So it's pretty cold. You know what's not cold, though? The Game Tower! It's nice and warm and you are definitely being yoinked out of wherever you currently are for a ~game~. Don't worry though: you don't have to stay.

Instead of the elevators opening, the rules just appear on your phone. There's hot cocoa provided in the lobby, though in limited quantity and all of them come with marshmallows. Mandatory marshmallows. If you don't like marshmallows, well, too bad!

Incidentally, there are also a bunch of green plants growing around . . . everywhere. Everywhere!! At the doorways, in the elevators, just hanging from the ceiling, growing parasitically on plants that aren't even mistletoe . . . !? Where did they come from!? They're all tied with a red ribbon too, to make them more easily visible and clearly part of the game. They're not restricted to the game tower, either - the only places mistletoe doesn't show up in are the unit dorms. ]

Who: Some new girl on Avante + you!
Where: Avant dorms (also common areas later)
When: Day 69, noon-ish

[ If anyone is in or near the Avante en Garde dorms today, you might hear thumping? A lot of thumping, actually, coming from the room that is abruptly connected to the common area of the dorm. Someone is wildly confused by being here and in a room, and smartphones? Weird??

Eventually the thumping stops, only to be replaced by a loud yell, and an even BIGGER thump. Right against the door. Someone's putting her shoulder into it. ]

Hello? Is anyone out there? Who locked my door!?

[ Maybe tell her how the heck to get out of there before she busts it down. ]
[personal profile] idolpro
WHO: You!
WHERE: the hotel lobby
WHEN: Day 69, Morning

[ Good morning everyone! Now that the color has returned to your surroundings, the neon signs are bright, the grass is green, the sky is - well, it's white, actually. But that's pretty normal when it's snowing!

In fact, it's snowing enough that a good few inches have blanketed the city overnight. Some of the sidewalks have been cleared off, so walking to the subway isn't too much of a hassle if you want to head to the onsen to warm up, but out in the streets and elsewhere like the park, it's the perfect amount of snow to crunch around in or roll up and pack into balls. It's cold, but not too windy, and there's still a gentle snowfall; it's practically a perfect snow day.

In the kitchen there is freshly-brewed hot cocoa on the stove with cups to the side and a sign that notes the cocoa is free to everyone who wants some. It replenishes in the pot every time it is emptied, though later in the day it will finally run dry.

Or, for those of you who might rather hole up with your phones for the rest of your lives than go outside ever again, perhaps you noticed the additions to the map went through properly, this time. Or some info and idol profiles for more new units. The elevator has two new buttons, too. Merikuri…?? ]

Arrive on the scene, though, and you'll find no one from HSS on site and two members of AlcheME! -- familiar and friendly B and a tall, red-headed young man in AlcheME! robes. There're a ton of mugs that clearly belong to HSS present, though, and the red head seems to be pouring them out for B.

Approach and one or both of them (most probably the red-head) will greet you: ]

Good morning. My name is I. I'm trying to learn how to conduct my unit's Lives. Since I've just finished setting up, would you care to have your fortune told? I can read your tea leaves or your palm.

Where: game tower
When: day 60, afternoon-evening

[ GAME ALERT - it's time. However, it looks like today the occupants of the elevator can only be one per ride, so it will take some time for everyone to finish getting into the dorms.

Once you step inside the elevator, the monitor in the corner blips on to reveal a beaming Mukuro, back in his usual haori-and-kimono fare. At the same time, your phone pings with the rules. ]

Welcome back, everyooone~ and to everyone's favorite idols, too!

Today's program is a little special - this time, our beloved idols will prove themselves to us not as groups, but all on their own! Some will fight and persevere to the very end, whether to save themselves or to show the strength of their love ♥ and save their unit ♥ while others will fall to despair and wish to be rescued~!

Now, from the very bottom of my heart - let's all thoroughly enjoy the show!

[ Then, the door opens - and you walk into a room. ]

Where: the hotel kitchen
When: day 54, early afternoon

[Sooo an hour or two after the game, a live is called. At first it's just showing the kitchen, and Crow contentedly leaned against a wall eating his ration like nothing is going on.

However, if you're actually coming in for lunch you might... have some trouble. For one, all the dishes and cooking utensils seem to be missing. For another, all the fridges are taped closed all around the edges.

You can find the missing stuff if you look up... It's all taped to the ceiling.]

Who: ~IDOLS
Where: GAME TOWER
When: day 54, midday

[ the GAME ALERT goes off. once you reach the tower, you’ll find the elevators once again labeled by unit. once everyone is inside, the moment each elevator lurches upwards, the monitor inside lights up with Mukuro’s face. he’s dressed more modern than his usual kimono-and-haori, in a surgical mask concealing part of his face, and a stylish dark green cutsew with a collection of near-black stains spattered across it; with a long, black wig that falls haphazardly in his face and skin made paler with costume makeup, he would almost be unrecognizable if not for the vivid green of his eyes and the sound of his voice. ]

An elegant young woman wearing a mask just like this will sometimes appear before strangers walking alone at night. Each time, she asks them, “Am I beautiful?”

[ he pulls out a pair of old-fashioned clipping scissors in a glimmer of metal, snipping the air between himself and the camera recording him. ]

And if they tell her “no,” then she kills them. But if they say “yes,” then she takes off her mask, and asks again—

[ he pulls his own mask down to his chin, revealing grotesque lines of red and viscera painted from the corners of his mouth almost to both ears, nearly convincing as real open wounds if not for the way the costume makeup moves as he speaks and grins. ]

Am I beautiful?

And if they instead tell her “no,” then she kills them. But if you tell her “yes,” then she will take the scissors to your mouth and let you look just~ like~ her~

[ he throws his head back and laughs, twirling the scissors in hand ]

Today is a day for ghost stories! Vengeance stories, death stories, hauntings~! Here is another one:

A family has two beautiful daughters. One is “obedient” and one is “faithful.” One is only allowed out in the day, and one is only allowed out during the night. Both always, aaalways complete their duties for their “Father.”

Ah, but I don’t remember how this one goes as well. Who arranges the flowers and who arranges the tea? Who is given a funeral? Which of them is “real,” and which of them is “fake”?

[ the false blood makes the stretch of his smile look painful as he leans in and whispers: ]

And where did the Father go?

Let’s have the idols show us their answers~! Are you are who you are in the day, or who you are in the night? Come show us a story~. Today is ju~st for stories…

[ the screens shut off. the rules appear on your phones, and the elevators let you out into your rooms. ]

Who: Hiryuu, Abi, Shuten, Raijuu, and Yasuragi
Where: HSS dorms
When: Day 51, Night

[ Sometime after the end of the horrible cannibal banquet, Hiryuu is sneaking a few people down to secret, soundproof room via the trapdoor chairs lined along the wall (those were definitely not always there), operated by an app on her phone.

After descending through the chute to the bottom, they'll find themselves arriving in a room--the one Hiryuu described as being for "guests." It's metallic, just as the rest of the dorm is. At the center of the room is the oasis of soft comfort in the sea of metal: a giant, circular bed that could easily fit a whole unit if there was a demand for it, with heart shaped pillows and white sheets.

There are uhm. Some less innocent things in here but as long as nobody goes pushing any of the control panels, you could mistake it for just a room... with a really big bed... maybe........

Look, you're guests here. Don't judge. ]
[personal profile] idolpro
Who: dinner guests
Where: the Game Tower
When: Day 51, evening

[ The final GAME ALERT sounds, long after the last Heart has died. However, when you reach the Tower, the elevators do not open for you.

Instead, they open for the dead, once they've awakened in their respective game rooms - avante en garde, future is now, and pep!pep!/Heart Soldier Senshi's dead will find themselves completely healed, waking as if from a dreamless sleep. Not so for ☆ZRAEL, Taisho, BAD END=DEAD END, WILD CITY, or AlcheME!, though - they awaken as if from a terrible nightmare, their bodies not so whole. As if their wounds had reversed, but only partially, they'll find themselves technically healed to the point of no longer being in danger of death, but no more than that, and while they may be able to get to the elevator, the trip home will definitely require some help -

However, C and Haruto are nowhere to be found.

Those on the surviving units will find their wounds rewinding, stitching themselves back up and limbs even regrowing, painless though strange as they return to being whole. Those still alive on the berserked units will find nothing healed but their mind, the insanity washed away as if with the tide, save for sensitIV - who benefit from both the mental cleanse as well as the physical healing. For everyone, the hunger for flesh finally passes, leaving only ordinary hunger for those who did not partake during the game, and a sedate fullness for those who did.

The screens do not turn on, but there is the distant sound of audience laughing and Exael's voice from higher in the Game Tower, much too muffled to pick up.

All participating units receive this message on their phones simultaneously:

Well done.

Though you walk in the shadow of the valley of death, fear no evil, for He is with you. May His rod and staff comfort you, and may you carry the strength He blesses you with to the end of this path and forevermore. May you always hold your head high to the Heavens.

Amen


And, for Taisho, ☆ZRAEL, and BAD END=DEAD END, 500 points have been rewarded. avante en garde, pep!pep!, Heart Soldier Senshi, future is now, and sensitIV receive 800 points.

WILD CITY and AlcheME! receive 100 points.

Trying to respond to this message will get an ERROR: FAILED TO SEND. ]
