EVENT LOG:
GATHER UP

characters: everyone.
location: beacon at large.
date/time: september 16-25.
content: a town-wide selfie scavenger hunt!
warnings: unflattering camera angles.

🔎📸😘

It starts with a network post, and then a song begins to play in the Invincible, loud enough to be heard throughout Bonfire Square. Welcome to the scavenger hunt, everyone! You've been tasked with finding 25 "items" in and around Beacon, so hop to it!

Please remember to ICly report your findings on Robin's network post if you want them to count toward a prize! As a further reminder, you're free to interpret the list items however you/your character would like, and you're free to assume your character can find all of these things somewhere in town without running into trouble! Just don't stray too far from town to go gallivanting off into the wilderness, as that might be dangerous. This includes finding forest spirits! You're welcome to NPC your own forest spirit encounters, just like in our last event.

That said, if you would like to search a particular area for a fun surprise, let us know below!

Okay, great.

[Jason seems relieved, cause while he wouldn't have minded showing Molly things like 'turning it off and turning it back on' it was nice to skip over that part. Jason gets his tablet to the 'home' screen and points to one of the little icons.]

This is what you'll need to tap if you want to take a picture. It opens a program and you'll be able to see through a lens. [He walks through those steps and adjusts the tablet so Molly can see that whatever is on the other side of the tablet also appears on the screen.] Once you have something in the frame, that's when you can push this button and take the picture.

[He points it towards the bonfire, hits the button, and then turns the screen to show Molly.]

[The look of WITCHCRAFT!! on Molly's face is entirely facetious because he just loves fucking with people.] Oh my god, how did you ever trap the fire in that little screen.

[He breaks off into laughter and takes the tablet back, repeating the series of button mashes, but this time holding the camera up to a group of people chatting in a corner before he snaps a imperfect, but still functional photo.] No, but really. Thank you. That's brilliant. It's the fucking buttons that throw me off every bloody time.

[It takes Jason a second to realize that Molly is messing with him, but luckily he realizes it before he says anything. Instead he blinks and kind of just looks confused for a second, at a loss of words, and then realization dawns on him and he purses his lips in almost a pout.

He looks over at the newly snapped photo.]

Not bad. It's like anything else, I think it just takes some practice or repeated use and suddenly it becomes a lot easier.

[Molly deigns to snap a picture of Jason this time, grinning. This is how he's going to regret giving him this power. The childlike wonder of pushing a button and instantly saving a moment has consumed him.]

Repeated use, you say?

[notthatjason]

[Clearly. Jason blinks in surprise, but not worried too much. He'd brought this on himself.]

Yeah, exactly.

[He figures it won't take long for Molly to figure out how to participate in the scavenger hunt as well. That'd probably be a good project for him.]

You'll need to make sure you have light nearby so the pictures will show up though.

Y'know, it's a bit fucked to make an entire scavenger hunt based around this concept in a place with minimal light. I hope she realizes that.

[She probably does. She just doesn't care.]
