DOWNTIME MINGLE / TEAM BUILDING #9
DOWNTIME MINGLE #9
ā¶ 001. WINNER'S CIRCLE.
The Outsiders have returned to a base that looks far healthier than the one that was left behind, and the decorations reflect the success of the latest missions. With the staff mostly recovered from their bout of flu, the decorations are back in full force, a celebration of the heroic achievements of the Angels against their own.
The less said about that the better.
Some things don't change, however, and the fresh food is at the ready, with only some of the meat looking questionable in a gentle change of pace. Another familiar sight is the bulletin board, though these particular results might come with more of a heavy heart than usual:
FIRST BATTLE:
HONORARY BABYGIRL (K.O.)
KIJYO & AUO (600)
SECOND BATTLE:
GOLDILOCKS (K.O.)
DESTINY & GREATVALUE (600)
The return of the Outsiders and the rebuilding of the base has led to an almost accidental rebranding of some of the fashion choices from the citizens of Neo Tokyo. A new trend has washed over the hip youth, leaving some of the outlet stores scrambling to keep up with the ensuing demand; chokers are now in, especially those affixed with little metal shapes - Xs, Os and, strangely, a cat paw...? Each to their own!
Some of the more eccentric of the fashionistas have worked magic on their chokers, matching it with the technology of the modern world, allowing for yellow-green sparks of electricity to cross along and around the band. When asked about it, all they'll say is they want to show "Setsuna-kun" their pride.
One of the more famous of the entrepreneurs, dressed in the finest of the new aesthetics, has also published her newest work to (varying) critical acclaim! A series of short comics have been distributed under the pen name PINKLIZARDLVR, detailing the star-crossed romance of a beautiful young woman and her monstrous partner, the highs and lows of making the relationship work and the horror at the revelation of the truths of their relationship. The front cover boasts a full art page, the tagline reading 'I know what you are...'
When shopping for your latest piece of literature, you might also find a new brand of chocolate on sale and flying off the shelves. These coins have a very particular golden glow, and can sometimes be mistaken for the real thing if you're willing to risk the attempt. The children of Neo Tokyo are particularly impressed with the new currency in circulation, especially since vendors who are accidentally given possession of them seem more than willing to throw them aside for the nearest hand to catch.
Children aren't just obsessing over chocolate lately, not with the new action figure on the market with its own special edition - you can buy the standalone, or the limited run that comes with an automaton, both of which have moveable parts! Part of the novelty is building the toys themselves, almost like putting together a custom robot at home, and the other part is trying to chase down that limited edition version rumored to have voice lines. If you're lucky, you might hear a soft echo of Yes, Absolutely, Handsome.
The real collector's item of the moment is a new line of wooden animals. They're gaining popularity, not just with children, but as a hot collector's item for salarymen too! After work is done, the line for the local toy store is outrageous, a mixture of exasperated parents and half-asleep office workers desperate to get their hands on the latest shipment. People are trading them voraciously, doing all they can to complete their collection, but the rarest and most desired is an off-model cardinal with an eye scratched out.
Beyond the main city hub and out into the quieter areas of the capital, there are some more subtle trends taking place. Local shrines have picked up on the 'gold coin' fascination in the younger generations and fashioned their own wearable five-yen pieces, for earrings and bracelets. Each purchase is relatively cheap, but in the 'terms and conditions' on the sign promoting the sale is a sentence written in small font: 5% of profits go to our Destiny.

ā¶ 002. STATE OF THE BASE.
Finally, the Neo Tokyo base has been repaired. After being attacked on the inside by a fearsome kaiju known as the Imugi, Outsiders had been temporarily housed in a back up base located in Kyoto. With the repairing of the base, LILITH was also able to renovate and improve the base with some new additions. Although most of them are still getting the finishing touches done, Outsiders are free to explore them as they like.
1.) Kaiju Kafe (Across from cafeteria): A casual cafe across the hall from the cafeteria, if Outsiders are not feeling the free cafeteria food, they may explore options at the Kaiju Kafe! The restaurant serves casual dining with better ingredients for a price. The menu is still in the works, but you can ask the head chef, Laios Touden, for any samples that he might be working on. This week is their soft opening and the menu consists of crispy coconut crab stir fry, roasted Yama-Kujira meat on artificial bread, lab grown fruit salad and steamed rice. They are hiring chefs and waiters!
2.) Room Variety: Now that the rooms are remade, they are now upgraded to be small suites that consist of a kitchenette, a small open area, and a loft. It's small but cozy (or cramped, depending on how your character views it). When the rooms are rebuilt, they'll start off with some basic starter furniture and can get a hologram upgrade for a quick fix, but they will be free to decorate it on their own with their own money. In the library, Outsiders will be able to find some decorating and small-space style guides to help give them a creative push!
3.) Game Room (Next to Simulation Arena): A recreation room was added, so characters can relax and mingle together. There will be some retro game systems (SNES, Wii, the Playstation 12, and so on) along with more traditional games like board games, cards, and so on. It runs 24/7 and has a variety of vending machines for late snack drinks and snacking.
4.) Improved Medical Bay: In general, the medical wing will have shared rooms for space/efficiency reasons, but they will set some space aside for private rooms for those who may require them. There will be a small couch for guests to sleep on, if they need to stay close.. Dr. Spim and the medical staff are also excited to introduce new Nursing Robots, who will be helping out. They'll mostly do basic tasks like check in patients, collect info, issue prescriptions, and assist the real doctors/nurses.
5.) Communal Kitchen: Outsiders can also still use the base's cafeteria for this, or they can use the new base restaurant. While resources can still be scarce at times, and ingredients can be limited, they arenāt always impossible to get things, especially if Outsiders work together to get them (like with Raidou's Okinawa farm project).
Outsiders may spend time exploring these upgrades and seeing the improvements on base in their spare time. Maybe sit down and start planning out your new rooms while in the Kaiju Kafe, or kick back for some Maria Kart to decimate your teammates! (As friends, of course!) This are all improvements that were crowdfunded from this post. Thank you all for your efforts!
ADDENDUM: As part of the base upgrades/repairs, the housing for Outsiders has been reshuffled - take a look to see who your new neighbors are!

ā¶ 003. TEAM GET-ALONG.
It's been a while, and maybe some Outsiders remember the Get Along handcuffs from last year. They are back, now, but this time with a twist! Like before, Outsiders will be required to check in with Commander Yamakawa when she asks for them to arrive in the Simulation Arena. A metal device will place a small, metal device on their wrists.
With a push of a button, two characters will be linked together by the wrist by a pair of invisible handcuffs. Before, these devices will unlatch after 48 hours, but this time, they will not unlatch until the characters do three of the following (yes, all three!)
1. Confess a secret to the other person.
2. Compliment something about them, appearance or otherwise.
3. Hug Them.
Once both Outsiders have completed all three tasks, the handcuffs will break free.

ā¶ 004. TRAFFIC JAMS & ROCK BANDS.
Recent reports have filtered out from LILITH that a pair of major traffic jams have stopped all transport of supplies, equipment, and individuals in Neo Tokyo. Two major thoroughfares have been blocked for half a day before Outsiders have been given the alert, and Commander Yamakawaās instructions filter out to all outsiders.
āIt seems that with all the recent chaos, we have more Kaiju in Neo Tokyo than anticipated. These arenāt destroying anything, though. It looks like they might be stuck. Our scientists have identified that they may be best released to the water after they have been analyzed, but getting them to move might be.. tricky.ā
Outsiders will be given information about these Kaiju, the Xiphosuransus. They look like a giant horseshoe crab. There is no sign of rift energy or rifts nearby.. Where did they come from? Observations have concluded that the Kaiju are not hostile, and generally donāt attack anyone or anything, but they can be fairly uncoordinated on land, there are concerns about it crushing civilians. They have also been reacting strongly to the music playing from advertising billboards to hint that maybe music is the key to motivate them to move.
LILITH is asking outsiders to treat them with care and see if they can move them out of town without disrupting traffic too much. Outsiders who are interested in escorting the payloadā I mean, the kaijuā will find that there are two of these kaiju across the region. One in Akihabara and another in Ikebukuro. Since they are not hostile, LILITH is asking Outsiders to bring them to base to be analyzed (not killed, Yamakawa promises.) Perhaps something about these docile giants can give LILITH more information about rifts and kaiju. Successful Outsiders will receive a payment for their efforts, and the one in Ikebukuro will be worth more money because of one obstacle: somehow it got flipped on its back, and because of its broken stinger, it is unable to move back on its feet. It will require more effort.
(Outsiders who are interested in helping corral the Xiphosuransus should comment in the box below. Generally, teams of 3-4 Outsiders is best. Come up with a plan for how the Outsiders will get the kaiju to move, and two teams will be selected as successful! Please make your submissions by 7/25. Unlike our RNG events, we will be looking at both the method to moving the kaiju and the music choice picked as they both have different tastes in music!)

ā ā ā MONSTER DEBRIEF SHEET
NAME: Xiphosuransus
HEIGHT: 12m
WEIGHT: 1000 tons
CLASS: Non-threat
LOCATION: Akihabara, Ikebukuro, Neo Tokyo, Japan
ABILITIES: This kaiju has a protective shell and can hide from most threats. It has no teeth, claws, and its stinger is harmless. It's only purpose is to flip itself back over.
WEAKNESSES: Being tipped on its back and unable to move, attacked on its vulnerable stomach through any sharp object.
EXTRA NOTES: LILITH has specified this kaiju WILL NOT be killed. Hurting it could cause disciplinary action. This kaiju seems to be attracted to music and can even be seen "shaking" to certain beats (it's dancing.)
RIFT EFFECTS: None.

ā¶ 005. OPEN FORUM.
While LILITH has spent much of the month tending to the civilians, LILITH also wants to give Outsiders a space to just chat and put out their feelings. Apparently some of you have some big ones to share. Once more, they will find the trusty forum reopened for everyone to participate in.
On the forum, they will have several headers, including general topics such as hobbies, or life advice, to even popularized internet sensations such as AITA. As LILITH encourages everyone to post, those with worries or thoughts on their mind may discover them already uploaded. Oops.
While it may clearly be another prank by everyone's favorite LILITH personnel, it's clear that it also has a practical use too. People will find headers for information and other happenings on base and are able to discuss freely.
[ Note: Feel free to use this as a general text option! Characters who may not be willing to engage are free to presume their thoughts are posted right up in whatever format is comfortable for everyone, whether that be AITA, or general/relationship advice.
You can use the coding below or come up with your own! We have also come up with some headers.

Last night I spent too much time in the rec room, and I heard the weirdest noises. Honestly? It sounded like a Kaiju was making a mess in the bathroom. I've never heard anything like it. I asked another guy down the hall if he heard it, and he said yes. So what gives? Has anyone else heard this? Someone has to know what the source of the horrible sounds was, right? Did anyone else die? Are we haunted? Or did a kaiju get in the building during construction???
ā¶ 005. AFTERWORD.
This is Downtime Mingle / Team Building #9. All comments in this event count for 2 points towards July AC. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask them below.
EVENT BREAKDOWN/RECAP (CLICK TO EXPAND)
1. WINNER'S CIRCLE: The Neo Tokyo base now renovated, new trends are hitting the streets from our latest kaiju winners!
2. STATE OF THE BASE: An update on the base and it's renovations. Please give it a good read and make note of it! Room upgrades, an onsite restaurant, improve recreation area, etc.
3. TEAM GET-ALONG: Characters who have not been getting along will be handcuffed together until they complete three tasks: admit a secret, compliment the other person and also give them a hug.
4. TRAFFIC JAMS & ROCK BANDS: Giant horseshoe crab kaijus have appeared in Akihabara and Ikebukuro! LILITH wants to research them since they seem docile and drawn to music. Can your team figure out what kind of music each one likes and lure it back to base?
5. OPEN FORUM.: Asking advice or letting out your frustrations online is always super healthy (texting prompt.)
no subject
ā¦ You are even more pathetic than I originally thought.
[ this way, to the horse races.. ]
You must really have liked having sex with me.
[ cause Toji knows it isnāt his charming personality. ]
no subject
Yes, I really did. It was fantastic.
[ no, not the horsesā¦! he makes a token effort to resist this path, feet kinda scraping in the dirt. agh. ]
You still put it in this pathetic guy, so what does that make you? Definitely not a man of standards, huh?
1/2
Hn.
[ thereās that shitty smile that Choso probably recognizes. ]
2/2
Youāre hoping it happens again, donāt you?
1/2
2/2
Yes.
[ itās in the way he breathes it. itās in the way sleepy eyes widen, face darkening with a flush that rises all the more violently when he realizes just how easy it was for Toji to pluck that chord. itās in the way his body responds, hot and heavy and unmistakable to Tojiās senses, sudden as a switch flipped by an idle operator.
a step shy of mortified, Choso freezes, and tries to pull his chin down as his gaze drops like a stone.
god
damn it ]
š dirty talking 1/2
Youāre hoping a rip off your clothes and fuck you senseless until you canāt think. You want to remember what I taste like. Then every waking moment after that, Iāll plague your mind and youāll wonder what the hell is wrong with you.
Why you could be so interested in a guy like me.
2/2
That same hand lifts to grapple one of his pigtails. ]
You need to get over yourself. I canāt give you anything youāre looking for.
[ He has no idea that Choso could potentially.. really be into what is happening right now. ]
š
the slap takes Choso by surprise, sends him staggering as far as the cuff will allow before heās wrenched back in. the grip on his hair has him rising on his toes, the throb of pain has him baring his teeth, but through it all the heat of arousal doesnāt abate one bit. no, it even seems to get stronger despite the abuse.
or is it because of it?
how wretched. ]
Fuh-fuck you.
[ but even to his own ears itās half-assed at best.
he reaches up to grip at Tojiās wrist, as if he could possibly pry it loose. ]
You canāt even give yourself what you want, donāt talk so big.
cw: emeto
I can. And I will.
no subject
the appearance of the hideous worm spirit sends some curious tendril of dread unfurling down his spine. ]
With what? Your winning personality?
no subject
[ He is still in denial that he could ever want something like that again. Instead, Toji reaches towards the spiritās mouth, which presents him with a gun. Instantly, and quickly, Toji clocks it and presses it under Chosoās chin. ]
What I want is I want you dead. Unless you can give me a good enough reason to not let that happen.
[ Toji guides Choso back, encouraging near the closest vertical surface. ]
no subject
does he have one? a good fucking reason not to die to this?
of course he does. but does he have a reason that this iteration of Toji can accept? ]
Because Iām the only one willing to deal with your pathetic self without dying to your monstrous strength.
[ and as if to demonstrate this he reaches up with his uncuffed hand, wraps fingers around the cold steel of the barrel and the way he holds it, the way he fixes his eyes on Tojiās, he puts every ounce of suggestion he can muster into it. ]
ššš for the rest of this thread probably
Itās not a great answer. Mostly, Toji hates this guy keeps insulting himā that is what almost leads him to pull the trigger. But then, he would be stuck with a corpse attached to him, maybe face some LILITH punishmentā there would be paper work. Not to mention, the mess with toxic blood everywhere.
He studies Choso, though, and he knows what the curse is implying. It still isnāt super convincing, though. He doesnāt click on the safety, but he shifts the gun from Chosoās chin and into his mouth, curious. His finger isnāt on the trigger, but on the outside of it, which is oddly comforting. Something about himself must have taken a liking to Choso before, and maybe he wants to see what it was at this point. ]
Thatās not good enough. You have one last try. Do it without insulting me.
no subject
steel pushes past lips, bruises his lower lip in its passage before it clatters against his teeth, and now should be the time he ought to feel scared but there isnāt room for it. he has no time for base, human fear when a traitorous heat is growing in his gut and pooling in his cock in time with the cold click of steel against his incisors.
wretched thing he is, choso allows himself a heartbeatās worth of shame; what is he doing, picking fights he canāt win when he has Yuji to look after?
but itās just a heartbeat, one pulse worth before he drowns it in the taste of steel as he lets his jaw fall open. his tongue laves the underside of the barrel, teeth scraping the top before lips close around the shaft of it, cheeks hollowing as if he were sucking something else entirely.
not a once does he break eye contact. ]
no subject
Tojiās expression softensā not to anything fond, but it relaxes from being so tense in these moments of silence. ]
Haaa.
[ Itās a breathy sound, and after a few moments, Toji slides the gun out of his mouth and puts the safety on. ]
You have no respect for yourself. Wish I could be that way.
[ Toji glances across the street, eyes growing heavy and half lidded. The scratches the back of his head with the gun before setting his attention back on Choso. ]
Thereās a love hotel across the street. Pay for the room and Iāll give you what you want.
no subject
Then put that away for now or theyāll call the police on us. Or worse, theyāll tell Yamanaka.
[ he doesnāt wait to see if Toji is complying; heās already marching off to the hotel, pulling at Tojiās big paw like he could drag the guy along behind him. ]
no subject
[ Toji goes right along, but he keeps the weapon drawn, even if it is non threatening and by his side. He is slowly beginning to see the appealā what drew his other self to Choso last time, and itās the fact he enjoys being pushed around like this. Toji never liked bullying unless it was in the context of bedroom play, so he is eating this all upā¦ just like last time. ]
Why would I put the gun away when you love it so much? I can tell. Youāre turned on.
[ He pivots, cutting in front of Choso in the middle of the street, grappling his clothing and pulling him in close. His tongue rolls out, and he runs the flat of it along Chosoās cheek, painfully slow. Gross. In a sultry tone, he continues on: ]
I can taste it.
no subject
he hates how easily Toji riles him. hates how that alone makes him throb. hates that he wants the man to just keep going, right there in the middle of the fucking street.
he hates that Toji continues to be right. ]
Impatient! Hold on until the room, canāt you?
[ not āstopā, not āquit itā, only āwaitā. pathetic. ]
no subject
[ nothing ridiculous though, please Choso. Toji does conceal the gun within the back hem of his pants and under his shirt as they enter the love hotel. Thankfully this one is manned simply by a kiosk and a selection screen for whatever theme. Thereās the classic classroom theme, one that is black and red with cages, Hello Kitty themed, a prison, a circus, Godzilla themed, cowboy themed.. and so forth. ]
I wonāt judge at all.
[ but he will. All they gotta do is select which one, the hours of duration and the machine will spit out the keys. ]
no subject
but look, soon enough Choso makes it through, and the clatter of keys dropping into the slot is nothing less than a fucking benediction by now. he wastes no time in snapping them up before marching the two of them to the elevator and up to their waiting suite.
the prison suite. because of course. ]
no subject
What have you done thatās made you want so much punishment?
[ Toji is seeing fully now the appeal of fucking this guy. Heās a total masochist. As soon as Choso unlocks the door, Toji is back at the rough treatment, using his elbow to pin the curse against the wall. The gun returns, pointing at his chest. ]
Undress for me, you piece of shit.
[ you know, best that he can with their wrists joined together. ]
