WEEK THREE SCENARIO

[potatomance]

ᯓ⭐ WEEK THREE SCENARIO

Today, you will find those signs from last week all over the castle, big red arrows, bright blinking arrows, bold black arrows, all leading you down a corridor to That Golden Door Again.

And there's the sign!

ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK (10 Points per Scenario Completion)

Should you choose to enter, you'll find yourself in the role of a fairy-tale character! All of the classics, maybe some you've never heard before, but it's the same as before. Sort of. You're now in an outfit befitting of your character, the NPCs still have cursed Riri Voices, and some of you may be... well, stuck in some predicaments! Some of you might even have changed forms entirely!

So why not help your homies out? Why not give them a Happily Ever After?

Because you still can't olly out until you get through a scenario, even if that means waiting for someone to kiss you. :)

Once you've achieved a scenario, thinking of leaving the setting entirely will get you back in the castle.

Among the list of scenarios are the following, though players are welcome to also come up with their own:

- Attend The Ball with someone
- Safely make it to Grandmother's House
- Escape the Witch's Candy House
- Free Rapunzel from her tower
- Kiss the sleeping princess
- Kiss the frog
- Just Fucking Kiss
- Perform an underwater musical! (You can breathe, it's fine)
- Conspire to poison someone!
- Save someone from being poisoned!
- Have a dramatic sword fight!
- Do a knightly declaration of love!

And so on.

You can act out the scenarios pertaining to your roles or you know what, maybe Red Riding Hood was evil all along and the Fairy Godmother decided to do a dramatic sword fight, we're not here to judge.

[cosmoid]

Intuition.

[ of which he has several thousand years to go on, though it may be for the worse here.

....hmm. ]

Before you ask me to explain further, this is a discussion I would have with Oriphi first.

[helmswoman]

... Oh?

[ Both her eyebrows raise at that. Does that mean that she's the one he wants to be his match, but that he doesn't believe was assigned to him? ]

[cosmoid]

Yes.

[ his expressions betrays nothing else, but this is the most serious she's seen him; more than their encounter with the tiefling in question even.

she'll need to be explicit if she wants confirmation of her thoughts. ]

[helmswoman]

...

[ Well, seeing his demeanor, she feels she has to ask. ]

Because you believe her to be your match in your heart, if not the one that was picked for you by the show?

[cosmoid]

Yes.

[ really, he doesn't like that term here but it's the most apt way to put it. ]

[helmswoman]

[ And to think she started lecturing him about how he treated Ori. But who is she to argue with someone's feelings? If Ori agrees, that's all that matters. ]

You wouldn't be the first, given what happened with Lucifer and Zhongli.

[ Surely everyone knew this would be likely to happen as soon as the show started. ]

I have a guess of who your so-called perfect match might be, but it's not as if I can share it with you.

[cosmoid]

None of that matters to me. [ what riri thinks, or what everyone else thinks. given what he is, he's never once thought that the potato's opinions have any pull over him.

that aside- ]

I wonder if we're in agreement. But, I think there are far more difficult riddles to ponder. Oz, and the ones who are too timid to express their hearts.

[helmswoman]

You could tell me who you have in mind, if you wish.

[ Yukong won't actually push that, however, and she doubts she'll be able to react much. Verbally, anyway.

As he continues on, she can't help but raise one eyebrow. He mentions Oz, but not Mithra. Hmm. ]

I have noticed that. People are so level-headed and so cautious, they're unlikely to really delve deep into who might be their match.

[ In that sense, she feels as if she got lucky, sorting it all out in the first week. ]

[cosmoid]

[ a slight dip of his head. he won't be saying anymore on the subject of him and his match. ]

Oz has said what he thinks his match has, but it's not simple to decipher. That, and that most are intimidated by him.

[helmswoman]

I think it's more that most don't know what to make of him. He seems to... struggle with basic interactions.

[ She tried to think of a nicer way to say that, she really did. ]

[voxnozzz]

[


elsewhere, oz sneezes. ]

[cosmoid]

Pfftheheh. That's one way to put it. His match then, would either not mind, or do the improbable in guiding him to open up more.

[helmswoman]

I wonder. Zhongli also has his own share of secrets that he prefers to keep.

[ Perhaps he wouldn't mind that Oz was the way he was, and would be patient enough to learn more of him over time...? ]

[cosmoid]

Hmm...

[ now that's a thought. ]

The fact that he fell so quickly for Lucifer has made it difficult to surmise what his needs are. Though, he's usually level headed aside from that, isn't he?

[helmswoman]

I would say so. He takes care with everything that he says. But to be honest, I haven't seen the two of them interact much, so I could be entirely off the mark.

[ She pauses, arms crossing over her chest. ]

Ori also gets along with most people, but she specifically named Oz as someone she couldn't see being her match. Phoenix might treat him like a puzzle to solve...

[cosmoid]

It's worth entertaining. Eliminating those you mentioned...it makes the most sense. If "sense" is a consideration.

Someone like Oz would either find love instantly, like Zhong Li, or it would take eons. I don't think there's an in between.

[ love isn't rationale, something he's been saying since the first day, though here it's more basic compatibility. ]

[helmswoman]

Yes, I think you're right. Based on what little I know of him, I don't see him falling head over heels for someone in the time we have left. It would just help if he cooperated a little more...

[ She heaves out a sigh. At least Uroko is quite clear about what he does and doesn't like, and has a plan for how to determine his match under the game's terms. Those wizards, though... ]

/2

[cosmoid]

In his own way, he is.

[ sorry, he's fond? vibing? of that wizard. ]

[cosmoid]

[ and then whoosh they're pushed through the door by a meddling potato. ]

...hm.

[helmswoman]

[ Before Yukong can dig into what Uroko means by that, regarding Oz, they're both shoved through the door but what felt like an unnaturally strong wind.

That potato is not long for this world, once this is all said and done.

In the disorienting moment that they're thrown through the door, Yukong suddenly transforms with a small poof of smoke, as if she was just exposed to some Fairy Godmother magic, and now she stands on four legs as a wolf.

She takes a moment to process this, along with how she's so much lower to the ground. At least she still has a tail to swish around, and ears that swivel as she takes in their surroundings: a dark forest. ]

What...

[cosmoid]

Is this what goes on in these every week?

[ this is his first one since like today, last week he couldn't be bothered. his eyes narrow, taking in the scenery and the fact that he's now in a dress apparently.

he casts a glance at yukong, processing her change too. ]

None of this seems very romantic.

[helmswoman]

Last week was a bit different, but yes, we're assigned a role to play.

[ Yukong pads around, adjusting to her new form. Perhaps it's the magic of this place, but it doesn't feel all that difficult to adjust to her four-legged configuration.

She can smell and hear so well, too, even more so than with her Foxian senses.

And, well, Uroko is in a dress. Riri seems to enjoy forcing the men into them... ]

Not all that romantic, no, though there are some scenarios we are meant to complete, some of which end in romantic ways. Or perhaps it's a test of how well we can problem solve together...?

[cosmoid]

Hmm and what role is yours? Are you supposed to eat someone?

[ uroko plucks at one of the feathers but then shrugs. feels like overly fancy robes to him, so he doesn't really care too much. ]

[helmswoman]

[ Yukong tries to laugh, though it comes out more as a bark-slash-growl. She shakes her head. ]

I couldn't say, but I suppose I'll sort it out as I go along.

[ She scans the trees around them. ]

This at least appears to be my realm. You look like you're supposed to be in some lavish palace.

[cosmoid]

Mmn, that doesn't sound too difficult. We can continue our talk another time when we're more comfortable.

[ with a lazy wave he'll set off.

he'll eventually make it out of here but not due to any knowledge of fairy tales considering he doesn't know the western ones. ]
