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!

I'm not sure how anyone would get to her for a transfer of responsibilities but I don't see why not.

I mean everything. Not that specifically.

[But yeah, that too.]

[primordialerebus]

I mean, that's like part of the problem right? Even if she wants to abdicate, the spirits aren't exactly like...

[ She makes a vague gesture that's meant to signify that they won't let her leave. Who knows how effective it is though.

Also thank god he didn't mean killing because AHHHHH ]

And oh... yeah I guess that makes sense.

[paletteswap]

They have her trapped in there. And they wish to keep us from her, which makes me think they are hiding something. Or she is.

[It's just murder Coraline. Some people deserve it.]

[primordialerebus]

I think it’s more they’re hiding something… that or they’re like, desperate? Idk, I don’t think most people would like willingly stay up there alone.

[ She frowns under her mask, fidgeting slightly as she turns her gaze towards the general direction of the light house.

Poor Robin.

Just because you’re correct, doesn’t mean you’re right!!! ]

[paletteswap]

Some enjoy the solitude.

But yes, they are more likely hiding something. Some day we may discover what.

[primordialerebus]

But like... forever? I don't think humans are like, built for that.

[ She likes being alone as much as the next depressed person, but even she crawls out of her hidey hole every couple of months. Just for flavor. ]

But yeah like... I'm sure she'll tell us when she can?

[paletteswap]

Probably not. How long has she been up there? I doubt it's been forever.

[He likes being alone in his temple. Just him and all the ice.]

[primordialerebus]

Didn’t she say for like… 25 cycles at least? I mean, that’s like gotta add up.

[ Sure you do loverboy. Mister mentor of every teen that comes along. Mister I’m totally not mourning my clan still.

Sure. ]

[paletteswap]

[Depending on how long she lets them try that could be over thirty years, so that is.. more time than he expected.]

True. It would be useful if the spirits would allow us to visit her, we cannot even get to her to help should she need it.

[He is not mourning his clan. Or his fellow Grandmaster. Or his brother. Everything is perfectly fine and he enjoys being alone with only the ice for company and shut up Coraline.]

What would happen to us if she were to die?

[primordialerebus]

Yeah… I’m pretty sure some of us would try to kill her.

[ She’s pointedly thinking of Vanitas and Noob Saibot, not that they’ll ever know.

Also. Press F to doubt. ]

And if that happens I think one of us has to like… replace her?

[paletteswap]

How would anyone get out there?

Actually, no. I can think of many terrible ways that someone here could be kidnapped and sent to the lighthouse.

[Doubt all you want it's true. It really is. Very true.]

[primordialerebus]

That or someone could be like, super determined? Idk, I’m sure someone here’s like super desperate to [ She inserts air quotes here. ] “stay alive”.

I dunno though… Oh no it’s melting!

[ She pouts at the slowly deforming iceman. ]

[paletteswap]

Desperate enough to take over from her you mean? There's likely someone, but anyone who'd want to wield such power is suspect.

[He smiles and shakes his head. You're cute Coraline.]

Nothing lasts forever.

[primordialerebus]

[ Take that back! >:C I’m an adult!!

She frowns at his words. ]

I mean, yeah but… I wish it could have lasted a bit longer?

Oh! If it gets cold, you should just make a bunch!!

[paletteswap]

An army of snowmen? I will put them along the perimeter of the forest, scare the spirits away.

[Look at that, he does have a sense of humor somewhere in there.]

YEET END <3

[primordialerebus]

Oh my god yes!!! That would be like, so cute!!!

[ She says, nearly vibrating in her excitement as she imagines the scene: an army of Santa snowmen while snow softly falls. For someone who’s never seen snow, this all sounds very exciting… ]

Oh shit! I’m supposed to meet up with Daylight! I am so sorry I gotta go, but like, thank you so much!!

[ She says, giving him a deep bow before dashing away, eager to complete as much of the scavenger hunt as possible. ]
