Scavenger Hunt Spin the Bottle-Wheel Valentines Day CHALLENGEEEEE!

[magnetite_plz]

You all didn't think you were getting out of this holiday entirely empty handed, now did you?

There's red, white, and pink heart confetti falling like rain as Nekomata pushes out a ridiculously large gameshow type wheel with a bottle shaped ticker attached at its center. She raises the aviator glasses she's wearing and pulls a few cue cards out of her...actually she doesn't have pockets and it's best not to ask where these came from.

"Lyadies and Gentleman, humies, magi and all creatures alike! It's time for us to play a game mya!" She does her best Vanna White impression as she gestures to the wheel. "You may all have nyoticed the names of Nexus denizens. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to give this wheel a spin and track down whomever it lands on and get a selfie of you two smooching! All selfies delivered to me will be entered into a grand finale drawing. The winner will receive a very special prize everyone in the Nexus is guaranteed to want mya!"

She points into the crowd of the forum. She wants you to participate! Yes, you!

"What are you waiting for mya?!"

[Fun Valentines day shenanigans since I didn't see anything else go up today. Entirely fluffy and for laughs. Feel free to choose your target or have me select at random. I may or may not choose targets based on hilarity. Happy V-Day everyone and accept this loving post from me to all of you~

There's no saying that only one person can be smooched by another, so feel free to double up if you want! Just respect another person's wishes if they say their character doesn't want to be found and lip-molested k?

This is a spontaneous Nexus event that I did not make a sign up for. If you can't get in touch with your target/if you have been selected and for WHATEVER reason do not wish to play or interact with said character, PM me and I will change it discreetly. This is Zero Committment fun time. You may now return to your regularly scheduled smooching ]

"When Schon finds out I'm here instead of working and makes me leave."

That is a very precise answer. Probably not helpful though.

"I'm having fun so I'll be here unless he makes me stop. Go have fun!"

[brave_heart_verity]

"...what is it you do for him, anyway?"

[magnetite_plz]

"Information. I spy on folks. Gather intel. Listen for rumors. Spread ones he wants me to spread. Halt ones he doesn't want to be spread. Rumor Monger work."

She's very proud of her job.

"It's not as glamorous as it was in Sumaru nya. But it's a job."

[brave_heart_verity]

"Hmm. Tell him this is work, in that case. You're making yourself known to people as someone who's a bit nosy but generally harmless. It's an excellent cover."

People keep forgetting she's Loki's best friend.

[magnetite_plz]

Her ears go straight up in her hat, making it even more adorable on her.

"You are shrewd! Oh myan, you are the second best human. Congratulations that is a high honor! I will do just that nyan~"

[u_can_have_it_4_a_song]

"Will you, now?" He's not a cat, but he makes a pretty good purr. The thin man isn't bad with sneaking up on people, either--how did he get this close unnoticed? Perhaps he simply wasn't calling attention to himself, and let louder personalities like Neko pull the spotlight.

At least he seems somewhat bemused?

[magnetite_plz]

"Nyaaah!" Her tails floof out in surprise and she whirls around quickly, scrunching her cue cards in her hands as she does so. "Bossman! Here to play too mya?"

Look at her pretty little kitty face she is so innocent.

This doesn't work on him but she is going to try.

[brave_heart_verity]

Ver covers her mouth briefly to stifle the urge to laugh. Schön's timing is impeccable. While he's focused on Neko, she steps up beside him and leans close to whisper something to him. Something something rumors something Sumaru something something become real. Stop eavesdropping.

[u_can_have_it_4_a_song]

Ah, Neko, never change. You can get a hint of amusement to crack that inscrutable porcelain mask of his like few others. He listens to Verity's aside, giving the slightest of nods, murmuring, "the rate at which your grasp of magic improves very nearly astounds."

Lifting his head from that aside, he answers Neko: "considering it. Is anyone I know on this great wheel of yours?" He steps up to inspect it, a finger stroking his chin thoughtfully. "Do I imagine you've been keeping your pert ears open, as you gather all and sundry to this game?"

Do the thing you said earlier or someone else?

[magnetite_plz]

"Everyone's on there." No, really Schon. She really did her homework on this one. From total newbies like that Chris fellow and Bugs bunny to everyone's favorites like Kid Loki and the two magi supreme themselves Naugus and Schon.

She's apparently left no stone unturned when it comes to holiday celebrations.

"Eheh..c-care to try your luck nya?" And by luck she means she will rig this damn thing to please him if only he will just let the game continue.

What's said is said.

[u_can_have_it_4_a_song]

"How thorough," he muses, "even the princess," before nodding his approval. "Yes, I believe I shall join in inaugurating this tradition. Let us consult the oracle." So saying, he reaches out and gives the wheel a vigorous spin before glancing to Verity. "Dare I ask what your fortune offered?"

[magnetite_plz]

Princess? Schon wants a princess. Nekomata can do that.

Even though she suspects Schon knows what she's doing, she still has the decency to wait until he's chatting with Verity before she forces the wheel to stop a weeee bit sooner than it would otherwise have. Schon wants a princess Nekomata will get him a princess .

"Wow the Princess lady is sure popular today! What luck Bossman nyaaa~" Please just go along with it please just go along with it.

[u_can_have_it_4_a_song]

"What fortune, indeed. It seems I shall be far too busy to supervise anything here. I shall look forward to hearing all manner of gossip when all is said and done, of course." That's an unspoken "keep up the good work" if ever there was one. Maybe Verity is right about this.

[brave_heart_verity]

"I got Princess Iphigenia. And since I already got smooched once by someone else, I think I'm going to hide at Matt's until this is over." In other words: everyone's had their fun, and she's done now.

oh look who's here :P

[bornstrong]

And here's Iphigenia herself, coming up next to Verity. She's looking around at all the, er, festivities, and is pretty confused.

"What's this about?" she asks, smiling and looking a little lost. "There seems to be some sort of celebration going on."

What a crazy coincidence! :O :P

[brave_heart_verity]

Hey that's convenient. Ver greets Iphi with a smile. "It's Valentine's Day. A holiday celebrating romantic love. People who're courting give each other presents or go out to special meals or events, things like that. And this is, well... it's a kissing game. You spin the wheel, and then are supposed to kiss the person whose name you land on. It can just be cheek kissing or something!" She's really quick to add that last part.

She's also blushing now. "And, er, your name has already come up twice."

indeed!

[bornstrong]

"...Tw--twice?" Her eyes go wide, and the princess is suddenly an adorable shade of pink. "But why me?"

This is certainly something else.

[u_can_have_it_4_a_song]

"Exceptionally good fortune on the part of those who've been blessed with it, I would guess," speculates a thin man in a tidy suit and hat, a silver-headed cane supporting one hand. "But I must beg pardon, your Highness, for we haven't met."

Sweeping the hat from his head, he bows. "I am called Schön W. Freund, and am delighted to meet you at last."

[brave_heart_verity]

Poor Iphi. Ver knows the feeling. Schön's gentlemanly manners don't escape notice; he may be getting teased later.

"Like he said. We're just lucky. You don't have to agree to it though."

[bornstrong]

"You're both lucky? Are you two going to be kissing me?" Oh look, more blushing.

Let's just say Iphigenia was unprepared.

[u_can_have_it_4_a_song]

"That," Schön answers smoothly, "will be entirely up to you. We have both been invited by the game to do so, but I think I may safely say that neither Verity nor I would force such attentions upon you unwanted."

[brave_heart_verity]

"Like he said. Only if it's okay with you. And it's no problem if you'd rather not. Nobody's feelings will be hurt." Have to be careful with the princess who feels so much duty and obligation.

[bornstrong]

She smiles gently, glad that they're so accomodating and understanding.

"Well, maybe a small kiss would be alright," she replies. "I think I can handle it."

[u_can_have_it_4_a_song]

"Do you grant us a hand?" he asks solicitously, "a cheek? What would please your highness best?"

[brave_heart_verity]

Schön remembers Ver's fondness for setting her friends up, right? He may want to remember that.

But Iphi's getting a smile for being a sport. "Whatever you'd be comfortable with."
