TEAM BUILDING EVENT #1

TEAM BUILDING EVENT #1


CONTENT WARNINGS: forced scenarios, violence & action scenarios, thalassophobia, mass death & injury from natural disaster.

β–Ά 001. GET ALONG PROMPT

LILITH is highly invested in the physical and mental well-being of its employees. A happy and connected workforce is a strong workforce, after all. However, SYNTHIA has picked up on many instances of discontent between Outsiders - people being blocked by each other on LINE, or teetering on the edge of having a fight (you know who you are and so does SYNTHIA, surprise!) That just won't do. Outsiders who cannot get along will fail miserably when it's time for teamwork. That is why this month's team-building exercise aims to spread positivity amongst the Outsiders. We all gotta get along in the middle of a crisis.

Whether you are looking someone in the face, texting them, or staring at their profile on the network, you receive a prompt from SYNTHIA, followed by an image (exactly as pictured, Shutterstock watermark and all):



"LILITH promotes a positive working environment. Why don't you pay this Outsider a compliment or do something nice for them? Or else :) Noncompliance will result in disciplinary action."



True enough, ignoring the prompt a total of 5 times will result in characters being transported to their rooms and put under house arrest - ahem, time out for a total of 2 days. It doesn't hurt to play along, right? As a note, the prompts become especially persistent when you're faced with someone you dislike. Should Outsiders try to leave their room during this time, they will find the automatic doors do not open the typical way (retina scan and thumb print.) They are trapped! Perhaps asking SYNTHIA for some mercy with positive compliments directed her way will do the trick (it won't, bu you can try!) Remember, Outsiders can speak to SYNTHIA anytime. She's everywhere all the time. Consider her your prettier Alexa. In fact, she might be flattered by that compliment.


β–Ά 002. TEAM ACTIVITIES.

You've had your fun back at the MAIN BASE. Now it's time to work. Outsiders will be sent back out towards Tokyo Bay while LILITH's research crew continues to try and detect the source of the strong waves. The city is in disarray after the tsunami, with the less secured buildings torn down and many lives lost. Morale within Neo Tokyo is at an all time low even with civilians comforting one another. Each Outsider will receive a small mission brief marked in the colours of their respective team as they are once again flown via helicopter to the designated area.

REDEMPTION:
Outsiders within REDEMPTION are tasked to spread joy in the streets and at the hospital. Be creative in how you wish to do this, whether it's putting on a performance, a skit, or spreading kindness with gifts and sweet gestures. Those with a Style Upgrade are encouraged to use their chip to don funny and eye catching costumes to entertain the civilians. Those with a healing upgrade are highly encouraged to help medical staff.

REVELATION:
Outsiders within REVELATION are tasked with babysitting duties. Many parents are still recovering in the hospital and there's no one to watch their children while they recover. A lot of pets need looking after too! Make sure the children and furbabies are fed, clothed and getting enough sleep. This can even include filling in for classrooms that have recently lost their teacher. Outsiders in REVELATION are encouraged to keep a tally of the census and go looking for lost children if someone seems to be missing.

EVERLIGHT:
Outsiders within EVERLIGHT will be tasked with keeping the people fed and the local businesses running. This can mean organising a soup kitchen, preparing homecooked meals for the civilians and delivering hot meals door to door. It can also mean helping local businesses with repairs to their shops, bringing them supplies and filling in for the staff they might have lost. The city might have just been hit with a tsunami, but that doesn't mean it needs to shut down!

BRIMSTONE:
Outsiders within BRIMSTONE are the luckiest of the lot - they get to be clean up crew. They will be mandated to wear hazmat suits in outrageous colours along with breathing gear. Why? Because they will be scrubbing the whole place of rubble, dirt, debris and corpses. Yes, corpses. Outsiders within BRIMSTONE will be given a census and tasked with identifying any dead body they find. They will then need to transport the corpse to the nearest LILITH disposal truck on a stretcher, where LILITH will cremate it properly. Note that they will be some survivors in the mix, so be prepared to administer first aid and conduct rescue operations accordingly.

Within certain parts of the city (the sewers, in particular, which have flooded with water), the natural flora seems to have been poisoned by a mysterious element. Toxic, monstrous plants are coming alive and attacking anything they see! They bind and strangle Outsiders with their vines and sting them with their nettles. These plants need to be dealt with before they overgrow. Fire & ice works well on them.

"Good afternoon, Angels of LILITH. Please pay close attention to the brief sent to you. We have specific duties for each team. Once you have done enough work, you will be prompted to help another team with their tasks if you desire. Our research crew is searching for the source of the kaiju and we have received information it is in the ocean. Please be ready in case it makes an appearance again before we can find it. You will be staying in Moonlight Inn & 11 Hours hostel once again as we should remain close by. Thank you for the cooperation."


Outsiders will need to finish their team missions. However, if they have time afterward and want to do some overtime, they are more than welcome to help the other teams on their missions.

β–Ά 003. IT ISN'T OVER YET.

Those who remember the mission brief two weeks ago will know that the first shockwaves are usually the sign of an impending kaiju. LILITH is conducting their own investigations, but with a fresh and energetic workforce it only makes sense to ultilize it. All Outsiders will be given orders to collect samples and bring it back for ongoing testing. By samples, they mean contaminated fish or ocean life remains, or samples of the toxic plants appearing in the sewers.

For Outsiders braving the sewers, they will need to don the silly hazmat suits issued to BRIMSTONE for their own protection and fight off the monstrous plants to clip some samples. It's encouraged to get leaves, stems, seeds, flowers or the whole plant if you can manage it. (Note that collecting the whole plant in a sample container will result in said plant hissing and striking you through the glass.)

For Outsiders who feel like taking a swim, they will be given diving suits and ordered to take a dive in Tokyo Bay. Once in the waters, they are to hunt down and capture any contaminated fish or marine life they can find. This means tuna fish with three eyes or octopi with two heads and 16 legs. It's encouraged to capture them live, but LILITH will also accept remains or waste samples. (Note that the available oxygen in the tank is limited and attempting to swim too far from Neo Tokyo will likely result in an Outsider drowning. )






β–Ά 004. AFTERWORD.



Welcome to our first CR Building event! All prompts are highly encouraged but OOCly optional. Characters are encouraged to participate in their team-specific missions but can help out the other teams if they have time. Feel free to ask any event-related questions below!

As always, you are free to check out our main base and locations page and make up your own prompts!

Please note that all tags in this log will count for 2 reward points each. Have fun! The next log will feature the kaiju fight and will be posted on FEBRUARY 1st in lieu of a TDM.

Return...? That's a complicated question.

[ It should be easy, shouldn't it? Of course he wants to - to go back and deal with Sukuna, to free Gojo-sensei, to make sure that everyone is okay and taken care of. The problem is that he's so much happier here; the fighting is the kind he can handle, Kugisaki is alive, Nanami is alive, Fushiguro is safe... Why would he want to go back, other than a sense of duty and obligation?

The truth is, he knows he wants to, deep down. His role isn't finished, his duty isn't over: he's still a cog in the machine of jujutsu sorcery, and his piece of the puzzle still needs to be slotted into place. Until all of that is dealt with, he can't enjoy himself here completely. He can't let himself sink into the calm, quiet happiness of this place, because he doesn't deserve it.

Taking a long drink of his coffee, he sighs. ]


Yeah, I guess I do, eventually.

[personal profile] the_fourteenth 2024-01-21 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
It's something I hear some people around base talk about. As if it's an option. Maybe someday it could be.

[This isn't Raidou's first trip to another plane of existence. Or even his second or third. It's possible, but he didn't possess the magic needed to get himself home, and wasn't confident LILITH could, or would return people.

Raidou nods at Yuji's answer. He wondered if it was a good thing or not, to believe one could go back. He didn't want people to have false hope.]


Good. I hope people can. After a job well done here. it would mean a nice ending for everyone. Maybe I'm thinking too far ahead, though.
eyescar: 🐯 anime (Default)

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-01-21 03:35 pm (UTC)(link)
We haven't even done any kind of mission yet, so maybe it is a little too hopeful to think about going home, yeah.

[ Yuji sighs a little, leaning back with his hands out behind him. He could end up being sent back at the worst possible time, ending up miserable or worse, but at least he'll be able to carry out his duty there. Being here is fine and all, but...

Smiling, he tries to keep the optimism up for Raidou. ]


Are you excited for it? The mission?
the_fourteenth: (087)

[personal profile] the_fourteenth 2024-01-21 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's good someone can stay optimistic. Raidou certainly doesn't look it. As far as he knows, returning home is something he can't even entertain. Neo Tokyo is home now.

He thinks about that question for a moment.]


"Excited" might not be the word. The anticipation, not knowing what to expect...

[Those are exciting, the thrill of an impending battle, but knowing the sort of destruction a kaiju may cause...]

I look forward to being able to help stop these things before they hurt even one more person.

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-01-21 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
It's kind of like going on missions at home for me. I don't know what to expect, but I believe I can deal with it.

[ Yuji sighs softly, thoughtful. It's not exactly the same as fighting curses, that feels like it would be too easy, but if they're going to get information on the kaiju before they fight them...

He has a good weapon, he has healing powers, maybe he can get a sword to go with it just to be safe, but... ]


I want to protect people too. Seeing all the people before... It was awful.
the_fourteenth: (029)

[personal profile] the_fourteenth 2024-01-22 02:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Kaiju might be more predictable than demons, from what I can tell. That might be thanks to the technology here.

[Similar to his own missions at home in that way as well.]

There are many more of us here than there were summoners in my world. That gives me some confidence that we can handle this. I mostly worked alone to defend the Capital.

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-01-22 06:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Demons and curses both. We never really knew what to expect when there was a curse around.

[ You could guess their strength, sure, but techniques and abilities? That's trial and error. ]

I'm glad you can be part of a team here, in that case. It must be quite lonely having to do it all by yourself.
the_fourteenth: (046)

[personal profile] the_fourteenth 2024-01-22 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[He considers that. Sometimes it was, especially when getting whisked off to strange places.]

I may have been too busy to think about it. [He says that with a smile, though.] I did have my own demons to work with, and my mentor. He was a cat, though. Ah, in the form of a cat. [This is the first he's telling anyone this, and realizes how weird it sounds now.]
eyescar: 🐯 anime (Default)

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-01-22 08:08 pm (UTC)(link)
A cat? That's kind of cool, isn't it?

[ Yuji grins, leaning forward. ]

My sensei was the strongest guy ever, but he was pretty weird about it, too, but I had Panda-senpai! He was a panda who helped us out a lot. Was it something like that?

[ Sorry Yuji's life is just as weird. ]
the_fourteenth: (011)

[personal profile] the_fourteenth 2024-01-22 08:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Perhaps? ...He's actually the spirit of the first Kuzunoha Raidou. He's been helping me ever since I claimed the title. You really work with a panda?

[It felt so strange to just openly talk about this. It still felt like rule breaking, this far removed from home. But to have someone who could relate, on any small level, was a relief.]
eyescar: 🐯 anime (Default)

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-01-22 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Your name is a title? Do you have your own name?

[ Has he been calling this guy the wrong name for this long? That would be embarrassing... ]

Yeah, he's really cool. I don't think he's like a real life panda, but he walks and talks and stuff.
the_fourteenth: (017)

[personal profile] the_fourteenth 2024-01-22 09:01 pm (UTC)(link)
I see... I suppose Gouto-douji isn't technically a cat, either. Only mostly.

[Even Gouto can't resist a good cat toy sometimes.

He nods at the question, though.]


It is. I'm the fourteenth Raidou. I gave up my name to take up the title. It's a high honor for a summoner. It's fine to call me by it.

[He turns thoughtful.] LILITH assigned my cover name as my original name. My given name, anyway. Strange to hear the civilians here use it... it's been a few years since anyone has.
eyescar: 🐯 anime (pic#16747534)

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-01-22 09:16 pm (UTC)(link)
It's probably a little weird that it's this that we have in common, huh?

[ That and having to fight things at a young age, but he doesn't really want to dwell on the 'child soldier' aspect and would rather focus on the happier, finer points of things. ]

Is that what you prefer? Do you want to be called Raidou, or do you want someone who's your friend to call you by the other name? I'll use whichever one you like best.
the_fourteenth: (041)

[personal profile] the_fourteenth 2024-01-23 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
[He's quiet, thinking this over for what might seem like a little too long. It's an usually profound question for him at this point in his life. He'd worked insanely hard to earn his title, but also feels as though he lost the right to it after being defeated by Seimei.]

... I'm used to being called my title, but either is fine, really. My actual name is Johei.
eyescar: 🐯 anime (Default)

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-01-24 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Johei... That's a pretty cute name.

[ Seems like the kind of name that suits Raidou, if Yuji's understood the meaning right. Names have a lot of meaning, there's no doubting that, and he's talked about it with some of his friends before. ]

I can call you that when we're alone, and Raidou around others, if you want that? Or I can just stick with one.
the_fourteenth: (052)

[personal profile] the_fourteenth 2024-01-24 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[He reddens a little bit again. He's never had many friends, so this is definitely a new experience. After Seimei, he was reluctant to trust anyone with much of anything. But, he nods, still shyly looking away.]

The first way is fine. [Less needing to explain to others why he's got two names to others, for a start. After another moment of thought, he adds:] It's alright to call you Yuji, then?
eyescar: 🐾 manga (pic#16908093)

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-01-24 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Yuji waves his hand, nodding his head as he dips down to eat some of his food. ]

Sure, Yuji's fine! Yuji or Itadori, whatever you like best, Johei.
