DOWNTIME MINGLE #6 (now with team building!)

DOWNTIME MINGLE #6 + TEAM BUILDING


CONTENT WARNINGS: violence, flashing imagery

โ–ถ 001. STATE OF THE BASE.

It's been a suspiciously sleepy past few months back on LILITH's base. The onslaught of Transylvania has left some Outsiders with both physical and mental wounds that still may need tending to. Some may still be participating in LILITH's on base therapy services or rehabilitation services for those who needed a prosthetic, teaching Outsiders how to accommodate to their prothetics efficiently.

The Imugi eggs from last year have hatched! Two new Imugis have been taken care of in a RESTRICTED area for observation, one male and one female. The rest of the Imugi, unfortunately, did not make it. Outsiders may visit these Imugi from behind glass if they wish; this is part of the RESTRICTED area on base. Any Outsiders who might have been cleared to help with this project will see that the Imugi sleep a lot. They are mostly active at dawn and dusk, but especially for the cold season, they are sluggish and want to rest during this brumation period. Their diet are small crustaceans, snails, small fish. As of now, they harness no powers or strength. LILITH wants to keep them away from exposures, so most Outsiders will have to observe them in a nursery behind glass. Any Outsider involved in this project must be full body sterilized upon entering and exiting the nursery. This means stripped down and pressure washed with pre-made sterilization. It's not recommended to see the Imugi in person unless necessary. Their names are Noodle and RAGING MURDER TERROR TEMPEST DRAKESTORM or "Tempest" for short. These are results per the contest that was held a few months ago.

The orphanage side-project has been a success, and children misplaced from the Transylvania wreckage are properly cared for, both with Outsiders, civilian caretakers and AI robots. There is still some building and construction work to be completed, but the orphanage is livable for the children now.


On base, however, LILITH's crew, have detected some very heavy rift energy nearby, but the oddest thing is.. they can't detect where it is at exactly. They send out their researchers to try and find the source to different areas of Japan, but despite all the searching, there doesn't seem to be a rift anywhere. Could it be a glitch? Or something else? Maybe it's something harnesses rift energy? Something that moves fast and something that can disappear or camouflage. Stay tuned... and be on alert.


โ–ถ 002. THE SEOK DANG GAMES: PLAYGROUND


"Aww, I missed seeing you guys have so much fun with each other! Breathe it in, the SIMULATION ARENA air! So crisp, so artificial. C'mon, let's PAR-TAY, bitches! Remember, if your teammates aren't driving you crazy, you're not doing it right!"


With Outsiders needing to be ready for whatever mission they will be tasked for yet, Seok Dang has an idea on how to build some healthy competition and get to know your teammates, especially the new ones, with some classic playground games from his homeland. Every Outsider will be asked to participate in the SIMULATION ARENA, though it has gotten a bit of make over to look like a children's playground thanks to hologram technology. Outsiders may group with whoever they like as they play these games, under one condition: the person you are playing with cannot be apart of your team! Everlight can't be against Everlight, etc.

Here are the list of games to play with one another:
Ssireium: Ssireum is similar to Japanese sumo wrestling, with two opponents wrestling each other in a sandy ring. The player who throws his opponent to the ground scores a point. Traditionally practiced as combat and self-defense, ssireum was also part of rituals conducted in the ancient tribal states. The goal is to score 5 points.

Neolttwigi: It's close enough to Korean New Year for this game, and in the year 2279, anyone can play this game, not just women. Neolttwigi is similar to seesaw, except that participants stand on each end of the neol (board) and jump, propelling the person opposite into the air. When performed as a spectacle, acrobatic tricks such as flips or skipping rope while in the air are often included. Try not to hurt yourself, but show off the most impressive stunt you can! Medics will be nearby.. just in case.

Dalgona: A Korean street food candy game where players try to carefully carve out a pre-stamped shape from a thin, honeycomb-like sugar candy without breaking it, often gaining a free candy if they succeed. The shapes Outsiders will find are modeled after the kaiju they have defeated: Shachimon, Imugi, Pricolici and Yamadenki. Shachimon is the easiest shape and Pricolici is the hardest shape. Outsiders can use any method to remove this shape from the honeycomb but will be given a needle by default.



โ–ถ 003. THE SEOK DANG GAMES: SQUID

In this game, the offense must move outside the squid and around to the defensive house's bottom "gate". Once inside the squid, the offense must pass through the defensive house. To win, the offense must tap the closed-off space on the squid's head with their foot. Characters are encouraged to use any method to win against one another, which can sometimes turn violent. Use abilities or powers, it's all fair game here. There will be a buzzer at the squid's head and the offensive player must step on it.

Submit a thread or toplevel that has this prompt as part of it to be entered in an RNG elimination round. We will announce the Squid Winner overall on January 25th! Please submit your thread by January 23rd. Don't worry. Nobody dies for losing any of these games, but players are welcome to allow LILITH deduct some of their next pay out if they lose too many of these games. Some stakes are on the line!


โ–ถ 004. IT'S SYNDER TIME!

It's late, one night, when a pop-up will appear on everyone's oculars. IT'S SYNDER TIME, BABES! Welcome to our Network Mingle! This is a Tinder mingle; an application that SEOK DANG has installed into everyone's implants last year and it's making a comeback. It's taken a lot of tweaking and hacking behind the rest of the LILITH crew's backs. Seems like the only person on staff who is interested in seeing Outsiders get some is SD himself. These messages are encrypted from the LILITH crew ... besides SD because he's a nosy bastard. Sounds fun.

HOW TO PLAY:
1. Pick the textarea that is under your TEAM NAME and fill out the spaces.
2. You can write the bio in character or as if Synder programmed their bio for them.
3. Body count can be confusing... even the automatic system doesn't know what that means! Does it mean how many people you have fucked or how many people you have killed? Or both?
4. PROFIT!

Participation in this mingle isnโ€™t obligatory, of course. If you donโ€™t want your character to participate, you can simply say they X'd out of the pop up.

We also have a code below for fun, but please don't feel pressured to use it. As always, a regular text thread works out just fine! Most importantly, have fun! All tags on this mingle will count for 2 points each.

(Please remember to put warnings for NSFW/triggering content in the subject header.)

EVERLIGHT


REVELATION


BRIMSTONE



REDEMPTION



โœ– / FIGHT! โค / FLIRT! โบ / FRIEND!


โ–ถ 005. AFTERWORD.

Welcome to our sixth downtime mingle! All tags on this log are worth 2 points and will count towards January AC.

For the Seok Dang Games, please comment below the proper header to see if your character wins the SQUID GAME. Follow the instructions and form in the comment.

For the SYNDER app, characters are welcome to customize their app with different themes, as well as download sticker packs. Anything that you would typically expect to be present in a messaging app can be found!


EVENT BREAKDOWN/RECAP (CLICK TO EXPAND)
1. STATE OF THE BASE: The past few months on the LILITH base has been suspiciously quiet and Outsiders have enjoyed a break where they can focus on rebuilding what they may have lost in October, tend to the cultist children, and the cats in Neo Tokyo who have been suffering from rift poisoning. Unbeknownst to the Outsiders, LILITH's crew has detected some very heavy rift energy from Neo Tokyo, but are having a hard time locating where it could be coming from. LILITH instructs Outsiders to be prepared.


2. THE SEOK DANG GAMES: GAME 1: Seok Dang is growing bored and puts the Outsiders through some character building activities. He brings all of the Outsiders to the SIMULATION ARENA and provides them with four mini games to play to build character participation and interaction.


3. THE SEOK DANG GAMES: GAME 2 Seok Dang is growing bored and puts the Outsiders through some character building activities. The second game is SQUID. Submit a thread for participation!


4. SYNDER: To encourage character relationships, SYNDER has appear back online on all of the oculars and Outsiders are encouraged to fill out a profile.. or AI will do it for them.

[ He wants to go to the mall? That's both sweet and funny to her purely for the mental image of him sitting on one of the benches in a food court, no cloak or anything. Just a big dinosaur enjoying a slushy surrounded by the ambience of consumerism. ]

I'm not exactly a fashion guru but I can help you pick something out

It is a point on the calendar of notation then ๐Ÿ˜. [ He's... trying to say it's a date? Maybe???? ]

Inform me when it is a time that is of convivence for yourself. I shall gladly provide the conveyance for us both with the two wheeled motorized vehicle.
