DOWNTIME MINGLE #4
DOWNTIME MINGLE #4
▶ 001. WINNERS CIRCLE.
During this time period, the Outsiders would typically have been met with a makeshift party with poorly placed balloons and streamers. However, this time it’s just a bulletin board with the following message scrawled out on it:
In light of this, the base will have an increase of various lab-made spices delivered by a certain sauce company that heard a certain Outsider has a preference for spicy food. Apparently, the spices pair perfectly with their lab-made chicken.
Maybe it’s a coincidence with a certain network name but the Nice Toy Company also endorses the base and creates a whole line of toy guns in the airsoft and BB variety which replicate antique guns that any collector would salivate over! These are distributed on base and can be seen sold at many stores in Neo Tokyo. There has also been an influx of people who are passionate about fitness and training, sparking a trend for those who work out in bunny outfits. Supposedly, it’s something they’ve seen in a prior battle with the kaiju and so the workout is full of intense cardio, and even bunny hops.
Makima’s face will be found on several brands of what appears to be packaged dog food, however it is unclear if it is really dog food or not. Either way, several hundreds of packages have been delivered to base and are stored as “emergency rations.” Everyone on base is free to grab a snack or two at any time!
For those Outsiders worrying about whether or not they'll be docked pay for only taking down one Imugi instead of both, worry no more! Everyone will wake up one morning with a notification that 300,000 KRYPTOS (~2100 USD) have been deposited into their account. It seems pulling double shifts at their civilian jobs won't be necesssary...
GOOD JOB:Even though the mission was a partial success, there are still sponsors who were impressed with the actions of the recognized Outsiders. They also believe those who have contributed are still able to provide relief to the people, and should not be criticized too harshly due to their efforts.

▶ 002. PROJECT EGG.
With the last mission ending in the retrieval of the Imugi eggs, the research teams have been left with one major question: what will they do with them? After some initial discussions, it has been decided that they would keep the eggs and attempt to raise them into maturity in order to see if they could garner more insight into not just the kaiju itself, but of their abilities. It is also their desire to see what the relationship between kaijus and the rifts are, and they believe this would be the best opportunity to do so.
The only caveat to this, however, is who would care for them in the meantime? From previously documented research, they found that kaiju eggs are not easy to raise, especially those who mirror lizard-like creatures. They need special attention that exceeds that of what people would typically expect from egg-rearing. Due to this, LILITH is asking for help from the Outsiders to temporarily tend to the eggs. The Outsiders will be working in shifts to watch the eggs, and are expected to care for them properly. It is noted that for kaiju who have been separated from their mothers, the chances of them hatching are very slim, and so they are not expecting each and every egg to hatch. They are, however, expecting Outsiders to put forth their best efforts in spite of that. At least, it’s one less thing to be blamed for.
Outsiders are expected to sign up for egg raising shifts and will get a single egg to care for. They are to be with the egg at all times during their shift, and negligence will not be tolerated. Occasionally, the staff will send drones to check in and also deliver food items and energy drinks in order to ensure that the eggs are being properly cared for. Eating or destroying the eggs is prohibited.
Coming up with names, however, is encouraged, and Seok Dang has even set up a small contest for it....

▶ 003. OPEN FORUM.
As soon as the order is delivered for them to take care of the eggs, a new download will be prompted on everyone’s oculars. It comes suddenly and without any real explanation. When it loads in, people will find that it appears to look like the “forums” of old. They have various topics already posted, including a bolded one that remains pinned at the top of everyone’s oculars labeled “PARENTING FOR DUMMIES.”
When anyone clicks on it, or even allows their eyes to linger on it for too long, it will automatically open. The explanation at the top is as follows:
I see what you all look up in your free time and I think you could use the help.
Who wrote this cryptic message? Their identity has been kept anonymous, but it seems clear that Outsiders are meant to utilize this to field any questions in regards to the eggs they have been ordered to care for. Some of the questions already include “do I keep them warm by sitting on them?” and “what can I do to provide further enrichment?”
While most of these topics pertain to parenting, if one exits the parenting tab, they will find the forum is entirely opened up for other topics as well, including a GENERAL chat, and a thread created by Seok Dang called “AITA.” Apparently, this was all the rage once upon a time.
[ Note: Feel free to use this not only to discuss parenting, but also to discuss any other topics Outsiders may want to engage in. You can use the code below, or do it without! ]

▶ 004. AFTERWORD.
Welcome to our fourth downtime mingle! For the naming contest, we are limiting submissions to one name per character. This is entirely for fun and there is no obligation to participate.
We decided to keep the mingle lighter this time due to the number of player events ongoing. Please do check out the SPA UPGRADE and the ROYAL GALA also occurring this month. Big thanks to Sky and Bijou for organizing these! Additionally, the LOCATIONS page has been updated with both Kyoto and Okinawa. Characters may now visit those locations at any time.
All tags on this log are worth 2 points.

EVENT BREAKDOWN/RECAP (CLICK TO EXPAND)
1. WINNER'S CIRCLE: The heavy hitters/KO winners of the last kaiju fight receive their sponsorships, including spices, BB guns, training videos, and fancy dog food.
2. PROJECT EGG: Outsiders are tasked with caring for and attempting to hatch the Imugi eggs salvaged from Seoul. They are encouraged to try a variety of methods in order to get the eggs to hatch, as no data currently exists. Not all eggs will survive.
3. OPEN FORUM: Outsiders are provided with an open parenting forum to ask for and exchange egg raising advice. However, a certain someone seems to have also included a general forum for Outsiders to discuss whatever they wish....

On my end, yeah. Should've waited to do this the next day, but there's nothing to be done but to wait it out, I guess.
[ just because she finds herself in a rather embarrassing outfit does not mean she's about to miss leg day. you improvise, adapt, and overcome. and speaking of adapting, she's just going to do some stretches on the bench on the meantime. ]
Mhm. Miss Gebura, aka REDMIST got a pretty good hit on the Imugi, which is unsurprising. [ on account of being one of the most powerful people from her City and all. ] Not sure why they rewarded her with all this, though. She was actually raging mad about it.
no subject
instead bakugo focuses on the treadmill, pushing the speed up to a jog to continue a warming build up towards higher speeds. this girl's not embarrassed to be working out in the outfit though. that's weird as fuck but kind of impressive also.]
They're capitalizing on our images. [it seems strange considering lilith was disappointed in them, yet the advertisements and marketing industry didn't seem to give a shit about lilith's opinions.] Like when they put Odango Mess's face on hair products.
no subject
[ everyone here has names, hello? use them. ]
That's the risk of getting those implants, I suppose. But honestly, the sooner most people here realize that tech like this will inevitably fuck up in a world like this, the better.
[ the City is full of it, for instance. mere things that are supposed to be advanced and beneficial such as instantaneous healing and teleportation usually come with a price, but people will keep using them because of convenience more than anything. ]
Still, Miss Gebura's known for a lot of feats back home so I don't really know why they went with this as a reward. She hated it, obviously.
no subject
Heh! That's why I never got any of those things!
[he sounds so proud/angry in that declaration. he never trusted lilith from the start, even if he's more willing to work with them now. well, some of that's taken a big hit in the past month... but putting more of their tech in his body? fuck no!
she's not wrong about the technology coming with a risky price. they already saw that with the surgeries, something bakugo's still pissed about and intends to try and improve if he can.]
How do you know it's for her? Did she have a bunny theme back home?
no subject
[ not like she's endorsing the upgrading or pressuring people to get it, but there's a sense of camaraderie whenever things like that happen to any one of them. misery finds company and all that. also, the convenience makes it all worthwhile despite the glitches. ]
For one thing, she's known as the Red Mist back home. No bunny themes there, unless we're talking about a certain militaristic District back home.
[ little does she know that gebura does know a bunny from said district, but that's a story for never. ]
I dunno. The least they can do is match up her reward with something she's known for, I guess. Everyone else had gotten things that benefitted them, it seems.
no subject
[anyone could see the warning signs and assume there was some damn risk getting more tech shoved in their bodies! the oculars and wrist implants were invasive and unsolicited already. but LILITH also stripped people of their powers and made them feel inadequate (intentionally or no) so they felt they had no choice but to get the upgrades.
as for the convenience of some upgrades... well, he did get himself a motorcycle and a car, so maybe he's not one to talk. but those at least aren't inside his skull. technically.]
Tch. Maybe the reward wasn't for her. [especially if it made no sense for the theming to the person it wants as its emblem. it's little consolation, but he's agreeing with her about the reward being ill-fitting.] Advertising will take whatever they can get to push a product.
so sorry for the delay!! life got in the way 🙇
[ she barely recalls it... there's only a handful of them who had that kind of honor in the base, after all. not that ish is rushing to kill one by herself anytime soon, what with her own limitations as a plain old human. ]
happens to lots of people lately. tis the season!
Bakugo snorts at her recollection.] Damn right. I killed the leader of the Yamadenki pack.
[A fitting reward for almost getting swallowed by one of those electric lizards. Not that he's the proudest of getting his face slapped on a ramen package... but whatever. He's seen worse by now.]
