[WORLD ONE | DING DONG THE FISH IS DEAD]

Who: Coven members and the Palai
Where: Celebrating the Uvi going boom-boom
When: Day 67
Open/Closed: Open to All
OOC Note:


  • The initial setting information found here should be utilized for threads here.
  • There's no official OOC account for the Palai people. You're free to roleplay their actions and reactions on your own, as in depth as you want -- asking questions, hand-waved interactions, becoming best friends. The new world is your oyster!

    For decades, the Palai have had to deal with the threat of the Uvi invading their homes, killing their families and returning 30 days later. After the coven found their way to Aimintas, the Palai found that the threat wasn't so...threatening.

    After the last attack, with many more Palai lost as compared to previous Uvi instances, some Palai had lost hope. Now, after seeing their nemesis blown to bits and falling out of the ocean, their faith in safety is restored.

    While the Uvi are still committed (by and large) to learning more about barriers and other forms of safety, the time for focusing on serious things has passed. It will return, but tonight? They celebrate.

    Unlike their last, shrimpy festival, this party has a lot more going for it. The Palai have had time to process the events and prepare themselves for a grand celebration. The Palai know how to party, but you ain't seen nothin' like this.

        A ▢ As a birthday tradition, the Palai give the birthday lizard a special concoction. It contains Elto energy and a combination of found herbs that can easily be located in Aimintas. When these herbs are combined with the Elto energy, they create a sort of...hallucinogenic experience. It's supposed to feel extremely relaxing and give the Palai pleasant visions, but in human bodies it's essentially just getting high. There are vials of these being passed around like candy, so don't worry about anyone running out.

        B ▢ Despite the adults getting lit, there are obviously a lot of baby Palai on the lose. Responsible coven members who have their own babies will have the ability to let them run wild and play with their lizardy cousins. If you want to spend time with your baby, the nursery caretakers have platters of crackers with mushy foods adorning them -- these are essentially candy to a tiny Palai. They may also be tempted by other foods present at the festivities, but you can avoid them getting a tummy ache if you have a watchful eye.

        C ▢ Speaking of food, there certainly is a lot of it. There are large grills being heated by the newly found bone structures. These hold shrimp and fish, grilled vegetable skewers and other foods. Instead of the Palai doing the serving, the coven members and other Palai are instead encouraged to utilize their own raw ingredients (which includes several large sharks, dolphins, etc.) in whatever fashion they choose. It's essentially a "build-your-own-kabob" station with no limits.

        D ▢ Because the party is lasting on into the night, some Elto have decided to light the marketplace with some of the bone structures they found by powering them and inserting them into small cloth bags that they then magically levitate around. While they provide a powerful light source that can increase the party's longevity, they're also floating live wires. Bump into one of these and you'll get a nasty shock! This is doubly concerning since Palai babies are fascinated by following these floating "toys."

        E ▢ The Palai, feeling more familial and supportive of their ideals than ever, haven't let go of the whole family/romance pushing on the coven. Their newest attempt is a bit of a prank (probably due to high Palais) who have taken magic bone structures and tied thick strings to the spines that poke out of them. At the end of these strings are loops that they're quickly slipping around the wrists of coven members they find. You may find that you're suddenly magically connected to someone -- or two other people if you're lucky enough -- by a magical thread that's VERY hard to slip out of or break.

        F ▢ Wildcard Part 1: Other previous party prompts can also be considered here, from the rolls that make magic go haywire to the aged liquor that causes a bit more than a headache.

        G ▢ Wildcard Part 2: Any prompt you like!

    [It's better than lying flat on his back in the grass at least. Safe to say that 2B is Gone at this point.]

    It is, but... It's even bigger past it. [Space. She's talking about space.]

    Past it? Really, you've been past --

    [ he hums thoughtfully. ]

    Ah right... the alien machines. You've been where the aliens are from?

    [ what in the actual fuck kind of question is that? ]
    apatheia: (a world of death)

    [personal profile] apatheia 2017-09-14 10:17 am (UTC)(link)
    [A completely reasonable one apparently.]

    No, I don't know where they came from. But I saw their ship, and them too. They're all dead. [Distantly, some part of her is aware that none of that is really cohesive, but there it is anyways.]

    [ they're all dead. even in his current haze, he knows that's probably ominous. ]

    ...What did they look like? The aliens?

    [ that's clearly the most pressing matter. ]
    apatheia: (another day another fucking goliath)

    [personal profile] apatheia 2017-09-16 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
    [freaky tbh]

    Big. And flat. I didn't like it. [Did he even ask you for your impression, 2B??]
    actus: @ byob (pic#11552958)

    [personal profile] actus 2017-09-18 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
    [ THAT IS THE MOST UNSETTLING IMAGE... and yet i laughed? ]

    Big and ... flat? How were they flat?


    [ ... what. ]
    apatheia: (time to ditch 9s for a joke end)

    [personal profile] apatheia 2017-09-20 06:32 am (UTC)(link)
    [IT WAS SUPER CREEPY THE FIRST TIME but now i keep thinking they have big ol' anime eyes.]

    Like... [How does she describe this? Frankly she wouldn't know how to describe this even if she wasn't high, but this is just extra difficult.] Something heavy fell on them. And flattened them. And they were flat. But they were sitting upright? I think.

    [... It's not like she knows the anatomy of an alien okay. Were there legs?? We just don't know.]
    actus: @ byob (pic#11552952)

    [personal profile] actus 2017-09-26 08:49 pm (UTC)(link)
    [ IT'S TRUE. I JUST LOOKED AGAIN and whoa. ]

    And they survived like that?

    [ he's fascinated by this. his version of aliens are very different and very not-real. well, unless you discount the shadows and gods as not being aliens. but you know. ]

    You'd think the heavy thing would have killed them.
    apatheia: (you're not pretty sorry)

    [personal profile] apatheia 2017-09-27 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
    [The end of humanity, brought about by... anime.]

    It was the machines that killed them. Their machines. [She only has Adam's and Eve's word to go on that, but they were definitely dead, so.]
