( OPEN ) we are here and going to make it everyone's problem

[cranekin]

WHO: Team Everlight and YOU
WHAT: Breaking the ice with a spontaneous slumber party
WHERE: Everlight wing
WHEN: Some time after arrival
WARNINGS: Destroying friendships with UNO or something. Will edit for real as things come up.

(The fun thing about being taken and thrown into a new place is no one really knows you so when Tsurumaru Kuninaga is missing from dinner, he's sure no one really notices. Eventually someone will learn that whenever he's missing for too long, he's probably up to something if he doesn't actually have something to do.

He returns some time towards the end of dinner, when most people have probably begun to settle a bit for the evening. He stumble-dashes back to the base with an armful of plastic shopping bags and oooh he is definitely up to something…)

& SET UP

In the Everlight wing, they need to do some ☆re-arranging☆. Some desks and chairs need to be borrowed from rooms to drag outside for the food. While they're at it, they might as well grab the blankets and pillows too. They might also have to figure out what appropriate music to play. So maybe someone knocks on your door to commandeer your furniture and time. Or maybe they figure out a way to play music so everyone can hear and you end up drawn out by music.

Maybe you get sent out to buy more snacks and drinks for everyone while you're standing around with nothing to do. Let's go, Everlights. It's time to drag people into early shenanigans.

& FOOD & GAMES

There is plenty of food to be found. Check out the mixed bottles of different flavored sodas and teas, assorted chocolates, and other sweets from the convenience stores. Eventually, a couple of pizzas and a few more substantial things might show up on the table. Some of them are traditional flavors characters will be used to seeing but others may… be more out there. There sure are a lot of more experimental foods combinations in the future, huh? Have you ever tried coffee-flavored water? Yogurt-flavored potato chips? Flaming hot lava chocolate? What about calamari Oreo pizza? Well, now is your chance.

There are also stacks of playing cards and maybe some other silly toys and games from whatever is the equivalent of a dollar/pound store in the future.The 100 Kryptos store? Which version of UNO do you know how to play? Do you know how to play Werewolf or Mafia? There are plenty of bottles to spin. Give someone a call and see if they answer or else you have to eat one of those cursed pizza slices. Of course, when enough people gather around, there are plenty of other ways to make your own fun.

& CHILL

For more introverted characters that might want a quieter place to hang out, some Everlight has probably left their room open. Pillows and blankets have been piled into the room to make it a quieter, more laidback place to hang out. When was the last time you made a pillow fort?

// WILDCARD/OOC

Hello, Tsuru gets bored easily and he wants everyone to have ☆good vibes☆ because bad vibes make him sad so he is steamrolling and dragging people into slumber party shenanigans. It's in the Everlight wing but other characters can hop over if they're curious or dragged in. I asked the mods about the potential consequences of staying the night and they said it would be fine for the slumber party so go wild.

Treat this as an open mingle and feel free to come up with your own ideas and tag around. If anyone really needs me for anything, you can DM me or catch me on plurk (yosakoi ).

[ Hard to miss the sudden shift in the atmosphere, even if the waving hand tugs slightly at the corner of his mouth. Shion can infer the probable causes, but in the end there's no reason not to share. They're going to be fighting together, they'll need to trust one another. ]

I can, ah. Sense energy. [ Because no one else calls is tao, he's learned that much. ] You have quite a bit of it, by my reckoning.

[ And Tsurumaru can share why or not, Shion isn't particularly bothered. Curious, yes, but he can live without knowing. Better to at least get some things out in the open. ]

[cranekin]

Ah.

(Just "ah" and he pulls his hand back, resting it at his hip and smiles,)

That's how you see.

(He wonders what that looks like. Sensing energy is different from the physical senses. How would he surprise Shion, then?)

Is that all you can tell?

(Just how much energy he has? Or can he infer anything else?)

[blindspotting]

[ Oh, he picked up on that quickly. Shion's smile widens a bit as he dips his head once in acknowledgement. ]

I can make out the shapes of things, generally speaking, placement and movement. If you were to use your energy somehow I would probably be able to track it.

[ That's not all there is to it, of course, but somehow he gets the sense that isn't quite what Tsurumaru is asking after. ]

Nothing more than that. You're just...brighter than most. [ Most short of the actual immortals he's encountered, but there are many unfamiliar energy types he's run into since arriving. No point in making assumptions. ]

[cranekin]

If I were to use my energy... My, I've never thought about that before.

(He's never had to. Most humans can't sense him. Those who could couldn't do anything before and those who can have no need for his intangible form. His enemies back home seem oblivious and while Tsurumaru himself can sense things, he's very rarely had to do so.)

But if there are people like you around, I'll have to keep that in mind.

(The fact that there are people around who may be able to see or infer things about him without him even noticing... Oh, he'll have to be careful with how much he shares.)

Well, I've always been hard to miss. I'm quite renowned back home... and here. too, I suppose.

(This is, after all, still Japan.)

[blindspotting]

Are you?

[ He's not all that surprised, to be honest. Presumably they've all been brought here for particular reasons, and someone with that much power is unlikely to go unnoticed for long. ]

What do you do, if you don't mind my asking?

[ There's only so much curiosity he can bite down on, after a while. ]
