WEEK ZERO: PIZZA PARTY

[saturations]

SURPRISE!

Sunday morning starts peacefully enough, until around noon, when alarms start going off on your phones informing you of a Pizza Party taking place in the Central Node. You can snooze the alarms at first, but they begin to get a little more insistent after a while if you aren't making progress heading down there. If you're being stubborn, you can probably hold out until right at 1 PM, when an archway opens right in front of you and pulls you in.

The central node is comfortable right now, with blankets laid out on the grass and boxes of pizza are set out. Cheese, Pepperoni, Hawaiian, Meat Lovers, Veggie, I could just keep writing types of pizza all day. A few boxes even contain very weird varieties of pizza, but if you give them a try, some of them might be good! Some are as terrible as you'd expect. Otherwise, the pizzas are all warm and delicious, and there's enough for everyone.

The Residents are all already here, waiting for you! Have a fun and cool day!

[just. watching the fire. and everything.]

...burn salve, if you can get your hands on it. The pink numbing liquid if you can't. Gauze would be good, just in case, and bandages, too. Things seem to be... escalating, and we'll want to make sure any wounds they might come out of their with are stabilized before we try to move them.

[dms]

[ well

he tries to go and grab the stuff for her! but the archway isn't letting him through. ]

...Looks like we're not going anywhere for a while.

[countermeasures]

...damn. We won't want to create any of those things, either; it would cause more problems if they turned to glitter after being applied to an injury.

[and the color powers aren't ideal for that either...]

Let's be prepared to move quickly and keep a close eye on what's going on, for now.

[dms]

No sweat! We can ask Kumopi, too - he's a lot faster than I am.

[countermeasures]

[she nods]

That's a good idea - thank you.

[dms]

We've got you.

[countermeasures]

[she smiles faintly]

I appreciate that. We'll take care of the two of them once they return from... whatever this is, then.

[9mon]

[He heard his name and came running over?]

[dms]

[ bless ]

Be ready to head for the med bay, 'kay? Just in case those two need a hand once they come back.

[9mon]

[Nods!]

Sure thing.

[He can zoomies.]

[ chang geng glances their way as they're forming their plan. ]

Runners to supplies, and a group to move injured safely if the supplies aren't enough to fully treat. If nothing else - [ they don't have a stretcher of any kind here, and it would be dangerous to try and create one only for it to not work or to disappear in glitter - he reaches and taps the cloak over his shoulders. ]

Enough people and a firm grip on all sides would do enough to keep them steady, once they were stable for transport. If anyone else has something else that could be used, all the better.

[ if riff needs it, anyways? void being. but extra precautions never hurt anyone. ]

[aitou]

[so this is what humans that aren't the Shinsengumi do when they need repairs]

[impurities]

[ humans have to improvise a lot for repairs unfortunately ]

[aitou]

[I wish I could say yams knew more about this for reasons but (hijikata toshizou voice) this bullet wound is nothing a little spit can't fix]

[impurities]

[ chang geng would hate hijikata on principle of having this in common with gu yun and will have to fix this in yams ]

[aitou]

[:) will he?]

[impurities]

[ an attempt will be made ]

[countermeasures]

[she nods, tapping on the sleeves of her top layer of clothing.]

...I used my power to reinforce this earlier in the week - so it should be sturdier than most. It could be useful for helping to carry one of them, if they both end up injured enough to need carrying.

[she seems a little more settled, now that they've got a plan.]

Thank you, Sir Chang.

[impurities]

Mm. So with the combination of colors available to us, something can at least be done. Reinforcement, support - whoever is willing to contribute, however they can, for better or worse we'll have everything taken care of, Miss Su.

For now, we watch and wait, and hope for the best. [ just in case the prism decides to twist something again. ]

[countermeasures]

Yes.

[stay calm... stay calm... honestly we should have asked for a yoga studio when we were doing location stuff earlier in the week.

her gaze flicks to the icicles riff is shooting at damien, and she purses her lips.]

We have many hands here. As long as we coordinate our actions, there shouldn't be any problem. And perhaps if one of them lands a direct hit, the "competition" will end without any further injury.

[she would very much like for this to end before someone falls off the roof!!]

[impurities]

[ chang geng is remaining perfectly calm, if a little agitated by the shift from pizza party to whatever this is, now, and tries to bring that calm with him.

hard to stay steady when things start amping up like this. ]

I believe the talks yesterday, they mentioned that paintballs are only meant to leave bruises if anything else, and are merely a nuisance to clean up. Perhaps a clean hit would be much the same, and we can call this "competition" finished.

[ if someone is hit with that ice - if damien is hit, then they'll have to make sure no one tries to warm him up quickly. if there's burns, or either of them falls from that roof... ]

[countermeasures]

...

[well. this is unfortunate. damien's been hit by the icicles - he's bleeding - and he's still going. what he's firing off...

jiuqing presses her lips together into a thin line and forces herself to calm.]

It appears to be operating under different rules.

[impurities]

[ yeah.

chang geng reaches up to undo his cloak clasp, jaw tight. if the ice is cold enough, he'll be frostbitten - they'll have to be careful, tending to those injuries. will riff suffer from burns the same way that a normal person would? will damien get caught in his own fire, with how he's shooting his gun here? ]

It appears so. Reason is not quite here. [ he pulls the cloak off. ] Better be ready, then.

[pura]

[...

Well.

Glancing over when she mentions a direct hit, and then looking back at Damien getting stabbed by icicles.

Bad, actually.]

[countermeasures]

[bad indeed.

jiuqing sighs.]

So much for that theory.
