DOWNTIME MINGLE #6 (now with team building!)
DOWNTIME MINGLE #6 + TEAM BUILDING
βΆ 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.

βΆ 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.
βΆ 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!

βΆ 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 isnβt obligatory, of course. If you donβt 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.)

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.
no subject
[One of his main special features...! And any old body can request it?? That bites.]
no subject
[Bakugo hardly does because he remains one of the few who refuses to get any upgrades. External items, he has a few. A pair or tracker rings, his car, and his motorcycle.]
no subject
[Yato's with him there on the external items only bit. He read up on the nanobot thing and noped on out of there real quick.]
no subject
[Just because some people opted for a teleport upgrade? Yato's physically more able than a lot of Outsiders.]
no subject
[Look at Bakugo himself! He can produce explosions to maneuver around, cause smokescreens for misdirection, use the heat generated from his explosions for things, to say nothing of just how powerful his straight up attacks are. Makes Yato feel a bit... feeble, comparatively speaking.]
no subject
your arrows home and change intensity. your sword's similar to a lot of those extras. you dropped twenty stories and caught someone in midair without blowing your damn ankles out all over the ground. and you're more physically enhanced than a lot of humans.
or did you forget your own strength cause you're too busy staring at others?
[People are stronger, people are weaker, some have better powers than others, some have none at all, yet each of them were brought here because LILITH considered them strong enough to fight monsters that devastated 70% of the known world.
Yato's doubting himself with such a backdrop of positives. Pathetic.]
no subject
[Except he totally is, it belatedly dawns on him.
Or did you forget your own strength cause you're too busy staring at others?
That's... incredibly accurate, really. He's getting too wrapped up in what everyone else can do to pay much attention to his own achievements and skills. He's not incapable, that's for sure. He's managed to aid his teammates a lot over the months, and now he's got his bow back he'll be able to do even more. He's still even got a trick or two up his sleeve.]
ah... I guess you're right. I'm just feeling sorry for myself when I shouldn't, huh?

if lilith was able to craft a shinki weapon stand in, they could probably do it again.
[Building Yato's arsenal along the way.
I would totally help, but players aren't allowed to ask for world rewards/items for other players. Pooh.]no subject
unfortunately most of my shinki are bladed weapons, so not a lot of variety in terms of attack methods
[Though he wouldn't mind having one of Sekki, if just for sentimental reasons. He misses his boy.
Awww that's a bummer. But that just means working harder to earn it!]no subject
[Unless Yato really spent most of his shinki time simply chopping things up.]</small
no subject
[So really, getting his bow, Rekki, was a major boon for him. Otherwise... yeah, he spent most of his life just cutting things and people.
Or canon just never got into the more interesting weapons he had...]no subject
So your powers mostly came from yourself.
[If Yato's bemoaning his limited skills in this world, despite being able to fight monstrous beasts in his own, and it's not the weapons holding him back, then it has to be his own innate abilities.
Which, unfortunately, can't be done much about here.]
no subject
pretty much. my shinki help power up and direct them, as they draw the line between what gets cut and what doesn't, but they're still instruments of god
[Confidence is what he lacks, but thankfully Bakugo's always there to give him a little nudge to get him going again, like now. That boost of confidence that allows him to keep fighting strong alongside those with crazy powers like his.]
no subject
what can you do in your world you can't do here?
[While he understands some powers are completely cut off, like those of Ratio and even Godzilla, others are simply sleeping or toned down to the point of being pathetic. But nothing said they couldn't reawaken and strengthen them. When Bakugo arrived, he could barely blast a car; in his world before coming here, nuking a skyscraper or carpet bombing an entire street were common echelons of his power.]
no subject
exercise finer control over what I cut, for one. like with my shinki's help, I could cut a single person out of a crowd with one large sweep, or kill someone without leaving a scratch on their body outside. I could also sever connections between people, getting rid of the bad blood between them
[Which could've been handy with the whole fight between Godzilla and Ratio, honestly... Outside of that, his own "powers" are already rather limited. He's a god who was born to kill, plain and simple.]
no subject
[Blunt, but true. Perhaps the smaller kaiju could see the first one useful, if one ran into a crowd. The third one could help if the kaiju could be reasoned with like people, but as they're animals on instinct (assumedly) that's... a stretch.]
you'll need to train more with what you have to improve your speed and range. what was that black shit you had around you during the castle invasion?
[Sorry for the bad memories, but when discussing power, sometimes you have to dip back into rage mode.]
no subject
[Effective against ayakashi, for sure, but not so much the monsters they're facing here, unfortunately. Meaning like Bakugo says, he'll have to work on improving himself in other areas rather than honing his skills or hoping to get his powers back.]
yeah, can't go wrong with working on the basics when you get down to it
...that was my aramitama - a god's raging spirit. it shows up when we start to lose ourselves to our vengeful side. normally it's kept under wraps lest we cause disasters on the Near Shore. maybe you've heard how in Ise they have Amaterasu's aramitama enshrined to worship and appease her destructive spirit
[Can't deny the truth of what happened, especially if it might prove a source of strength for him. The trouble may come from learning to harness it, though.]
no subject
[He doesn't admit that to most people, but a few close friends get to know the struggle. Bakugo trained and fought every day to power himself back up, pissed as hell this place nerfed his Quirk so hard. But abilities locked away or lost? No luck.]
can you access it without getting pissed off?
[Or does he have to taunt Yato before each kaiju fight.]
no subject
[He's not surprised Bakugo manage to overcome such an obstacle; anything that stands in the kid's way is merely something to be dealt with. Pity it doesn't apply to Yato's own immortality, but at least that should mean he can get stronger, too.]
dunno, I've never tried. I've always worked to keep it contained, lest I lose myself and hurt those I care about...
[He's heard what lengths Tenjin went to during the times his aramitama got the better of him, banishing shinki and destroying shit with lighting. Not typically a goal for a god. But if he could learn to access that strength without the whole 'going crazy' bit... Maybe Bakugo will have to try getting his goat before fights, if just to see what happens. It'll probably take some low blows, however, with Yato's easygoing nature.]
no subject
doesn't matter now. i'm back to my full strength and stronger.
[If telling him that encourages Yato to also get stronger and overcome his own doubts, fine. He'll do that. Yeah, sucks the immortality can't be regained, but he learned that well enough through Denji. Having to get his boyfriend used to not being able to lop his head off for "free" and reform later took a while...]
it's your power. you shouldn't let it control you, bakami.
no subject
glad to hear! must've been hella frustrating to be so limited
[It does, honestly. Just as Bakugo chases after Midoriya, here Yato has someone to strive after. A goal to shoot for: become someone who doesn't hold others (Bakugo) back with his limitations. ...yeah, let there be no lopping of heads, please. That's a bit much??]
heh, yeah... I know. I should become skilled and strong enough to not allow myself to lose control when it's raging
no subject
tch. stop gushing.
[He doesn't need the retroactive sympathy. OY!! DON'T YOU DARE SUGGEST HE CHASES THAT NERD!!
He ended up doing just that.Bakugo long since corrected his stance on Yato's prowess, but he's not about to go easy on the other guy. Whether doubting himself or trying to break through his limitations, he'll push him forward, or drag him behind. His choice, but he's going.]can you summon it at will? you said it's done through anger, but a door's not the same as a trigger.
no subject
haha right, right
[Fair point. HAHA YESSIR...
Go for the gold, Bakugo...!It's a correction Yato wants to live up to, for sure. He's done disappointing people and having them think him just a worthless bum of a god. He wants to stand tall and proud, like Bakugo does. So he'll keep working at improving himself, even if at times his friend has to haul his ass a bit before he regains his footing after stumbling.]door versus a trigger, huh? I don't think so... it's something that consumes me, like if say I ever irked you and just kept pushing your buttons until you couldn't take it anymore and all the rage just boiled over
[Which he's almost certainly done, haha...]
