Evelyn: "Well, I got lost, but I made a poisonous thing. I think that's a fair trade. Tomorrow should be more interesting at least...unless I get lost again."

Leaving his kids to do his job for him? :P

Zeb: "Well, I had to team up with somebody today to hide from another tribute. It was... I mean... she was nice, I guess?"

Dax: "Woooooo! I'm a ghoooooost! Look at me, I'm all dead and stuff! ...Yeah, I know, I'm not transparent. Shut up, I can dream."

Still right where it always was. Search the doc for 'Day 3'.

In which there are six deffs deaths, and my lack of inspiration starts to show through...

We're down another Boarder, and the only intact districts are Skarmory and Turbo Mike.

hS

I'll post the starting bracket later tonight! Keep an eye out. :)

Just going to say that Zoroark is my 7th Pokemon.

Caprice: It's too bad Voltarmi's out, but I got to ride Suta instead! Our little team didn't wreak fearsome Cretaceous devastation on anyone, but that's okay. We had fun. And I got to hang out with Acacia freaking Byrd! ... Okay, a hologram of her, but still! Where do I even go from here?

---

Probably nowhere good. The RNG will come up Caprice eventually. {= )

~Neshomeh

((Apologies for my lack of interviews. Incredibly busy week at work))

Voltarmi: I knew I should have stuck with the ghost ploy. But what can you do? Sometimes a dinosaur comes along and steals your thunder.

Barid: Da vidjagame section didn' work out for me an' now da high-tech place isn' workin' out. I should'a jus stuck wit da fantasy or magic sections.

The Notary: I wasn't warm. She was. What more is there to discuss? Besides, we just... talked. Nothing untoward happened, because Morgan does actually have some standards. And, well... I shared a memory. A few, actually; ones from my fourth incarnation. Why I am the thing that I am. I doubt it endeared me to her, because I doubt that this version of myself is capable of engendering anything other than the most vehement disgust, but I felt she deserved to know.

Wobbles the Clown (KILL COUNT +1): ... I killed someone on my own team. Because I had to. Because if I didn't, then I don't think I could kill anyone. So, so it was him, because I knew I could do that to him. I wonder if it gets easier.

I hope not...

Kyaris: Pfft, did they think they could scare me? I wasn't scared... I wasn't! Didn't you see me chasing Levy around later? Is that the action of a scared woman? I ask you!

Morgan: I'm not saying anything until I get a chance to talk to Grey.

Kaitlyn: Someone stole my stuff. And the sword-kid didn't want to hang out with me any more. And my leg really freaking hurts. I am not having a good day.

Maethorwen: This 'Monty Snake' is hilarious! In my thousands of years, I have never encountered anything so entertaining. My eternal gratitude to Curff for introdu-

Ahem. I mean, I spent the day perfecting my stealth techniques. No-one shall expect the Elvish Inquisition.

The Enervated Rat-Catcher
Met some chaps, and we all decided we'd work together to get a nice sleep, shifts and whatnot. Didn't work. I ain't slept for days, now. Every time I close my eyes, I have the same nightmare, where I'm sittin there, and Errant bursts in from the door, holdin the RA. And she fiddles wif it and says 'Hey, Catcher, it's my turn! I think I know how to use this, now!' and then she goes 'Hehe!' That's when I wake up. It's been affecting me. Fink I've been hallucinating, now. I swears. I been seein people run and hide behind waterfalls, and some crazy-looking person gettin followed real careful by another person, and a clown and some chap holdin hands, and some half-nude lady pulled a sword out a stone but it talked. Fink I'm goin crazy.

E.V.L.: "So it seems that even this carnival of carnage isn't going to keep a lady from getting her beauty sleep."

Cupid: "GYAAAAH! MAKES-THINGS, I ALREADY SAID I WAS SORRY ABOUT THE INCIDENT WITH THE TRUCK! ISN'T ONE APOLOGY ENOUGH FOR YOU TO LEAVE ME ALONE?! AIEEEE WHAT IS THAT IN YOUR HAND?! OH GODS OH GODS RUNNING SOMEBODY HEEEELLLLLPPPPP!!!"

Backslash: "Drat. Back to the drawing board, and without even my Monado replica to save me! Ugh..."

Suta: "Note to self, twenty bedsheets don't make effective camouflage when sneaking up on prey. And honestly, that should've been an awesome three-way battle back there! It'd be a perfect send-off for at least one giant reptile... wouldn't it?"

(I'm laughing so hard at Cupid being chased by Makes-Things, send help. The continuity nod was too good to ignore. X'D)

Breathes into paper bag. That was non-canon. That was non-canon. That was non-canon. Just keep telling myself that, because wow, that ending got me. I was really expecting her to find a way out of that, and just, wow.

I must say, though, I'm not sure if it was intentional or not (all things considered, I'd guess it was from your point of view, not so much from the writer's.) She starts out meh, becomes shallow, then [censored], then insane, like she's grinding her Evil stat. :P Anyways, it was decidedly enjoyable, especially because I became more and more sure of the outcome as she became worse and worse, and then I discovered the rug had been yanked out from underneath me. So, of course, now I have to find my footing before I can skedaddle and design costumes for Purim, which is apparently a thing that is done. Is excited for this.

Michael

One moment... excellent. This shall serve. Thank you for your patience. My apologies if I would rather be brief today, but, well, I was up all night. I did my best to sleep, but neither Dax nor Cupid seemed interested in doing so. It was, however, something of a relief just to be relaxing, instead of worrying about my safety for a change, and both are quite entertaining, so while I did eventually grow rather curt, I'm afraid, it was still enjoyable on the whole. Oh, the Arena? I was attempting to create a place to sleep. Foolish, I know, but such things happen when one is tired. Thankfully, the situation has been remedied- for now, at least.

Tyranitar
Excadrill
Scolipede
Garchomp
Lucario
Scizor

And Starmie as a sub.

... and she goes and takes part in the slaying of a freaking dragon. The thing is, I can totally imagine her going for it given the chance.

(Though, since the slaying of Voltarmi seems to be mostly Jesse's doing, it means she's bagged the Detective? I guess having gotten killed by a twelve-year-old anime girl (and one looking like the Friendly-To_All-Living-Things Sakura Kinomoto to boot) really does explain why he's so reticent in his interview...)

Shiro

The night was rather uneventful for me, and during the day I got myself a high tech rifle of sorts alongside a team, but we didn't find anyone so in the end we didn't accomplish much... Wait, Saki did WHAT?

Saki

Someone stole my stuff during the night, but then WE KILLED A DRAGON! Well, Mr. Cowboy did, but I guess I was a good distraction? And then I did get that other guy!

Ami

I think the most interesting thing happening today was me helping that Time Lady set up an hologram. Or, rather, I was the template she reverse engineered to do that. Y'now, me being an holographic ghost and all...


For the record, Saki loos more or less like this.

This cute girl (well, one looking exactly like her) just helped slay a DRAGON and killed a TIME LORD.. What has the RNG done?

(If I had just said "*Cue Darth Vader theme here*" this message would've been too short, so... Excuse the caps lock.)

Ellie: RUDIMENTARY?! YOU CALL THIS RUDIMENTARY!?

She takes a breath.

The Interview ends there

Matthew (In a hushed tone, looking towards The Witness): I'm trying to find out what makes her tic. Is it pure insanity or is she in cahoots with some Sue or something.

Also: Evelyn, Levy was gonna join our group, I thought I told you this.

Levy: I was hoping Matthew's group would've helped me out against all these people chasing after me, but no. Come the next day and some other person comes after me.

Ajax: I'm riding a T-Rex, your argument is invalid. Also I did not need this water Mysterious Water Sponsor.

He flicks a hand towards a tree, it dissolves into water.

See?

Lu'ci'ten Gyrvain
So those days happened. Yes, Kaatah, I did hear you - Caprice was just quicker. No, Dann, that did not scare me. My eye was watering from the suppression of my laughter at how ridiculous you looked.

Yes, yes, I know I said signups were going to go until April first, but since I completely neglected to post something then, the deadline for signups has been extended to tomorrow.

The official rules doc and signup sheet can be found here.

Guess it's normal, getting jumped by surprise never do any good. And I'm still not getting how the duck I found myself being nursed to sleep by that Time Lord. Too damn weird.

Now, normally I'd be going back to the projects delayed by this duckfest, buuut... *hands out locks of hair* I think my partner will want to pay you a visit really soon. And joining her just seemed to be an interesting option.

The Detective: "Excellent, right—got the cameras going, there's the bit with the interviews, and I can leave? Right, brilliant. I died." sits expectantly "Well, what do you mean you want more? I'm dead—thank Rassilon you don't work in Medical if it's that difficult for you to work out. Can I leave yet? Please?" pan to Jack

Jack: "Got some supplies, at least. Should be enough to last a while, what with what Dee mugged a clown for. rolls eyes . . . Oh, the non—Suvian? Well, what did you expect? Looked exactly like one, for one thing. I mean, shifter—c'mon. Best thing to do is what you learn to do on the job. Just run. Better safe than sorry, and you live to fight another day."

Jack: "I knew meds were gonna be the most valuable supplies later. I didn't know I was gonna be the one needing them."

The Detective: "I saw some food, thought to myself, 'Most everyone on my team does eat food,' so I thought I'd snag it. Wobbles just happened to be holding it at the time. Besides, you've gotta be an idiot going up to the Cornucopia in the first place, she deserved for something to go wrong. Though I got out just fine, which is . . . weird. Decided to make a run for Fantasy Farthing, and magic ring get! Now magic how, I ask you?"

Alleb

Bravo, Sir Jesse, bravo! The dragon never stood a chance. I shall make a true knight of you yet!

Jesse

*is downing his entire flask of whiskey in one go*

Errant

I like the SciFi Sector! It reminds me of the Tower. That four-man fireteam towards the end of the day was great; too bad we didn't find anyone. Do I get XP for this? I'm reaaaaally close to getting a new grenade!

-Alleb

((OOC: As requested by hS. I've added a little something to… well, add a little something.))

Holo-Acacia: Right out of the gate, someone tries to jump me! Well, that might have worked on Holo-Jay, but I'm not exactly a stranger to this. A little bit of improvised teamwork, and two competitors are already out of the way.

Also, someone stole my food. Good thing I don't need to eat, or else I'd be pretty hacked off.

~~~~~~~~~~

Rather than one of the four quadrants of the current Hunger Games, this camera seems to be set in a rather spartan lab. There are two individuals standing in view, with a third sitting at a nearby computer. All of them are wearing black lab coats with DoSAT patches. The one closest to the camera, a tanned, middle-aged woman with greying hair tied into a bedraggled bun, clears her throat.

DStA: Hello to you, fine viewers! My name is Dr. Daphne St. Auguste, of the Testing and Application Division in the Department of Sufficiently Advanced Technology. These are my colleagues: Tess Jachowicz—

She gestures to a younger woman with braided brown hair and glasses standing behind her.

TJ: A pleasure!

DStA: —and Naas'Gehlen vas Headquarters.

She points over at a male quarian typing away at the computer, who gives a casual salute without looking over at the camera.

DStA: We are the team behind Holo-Jay and Holo-Acacia. The technology was originally meant to supplement agents working in the field, but apparently there were "concerns" about dispatching holograms.

TJ: Along with complaints from the Friends of AI Society.

DStA: Which were ridiculous! The holograms are not "true" AI. A true AI would have the capability to self-rationalize and expand beyond—

TJ: Ah, ma'am? You're starting to ramble.

DStA: Was I?

NGvH: *without looking around* Yup.

DStA: All right, very well. As I was saying before, we are the team behind Holo-Jay and Holo-Acacia. And while Holo-Jay has fallen a bit short of our expectations—

Naas'Gehlen snorts. Daphne shoots him a quick glare.

DStA: We are quite confident in the performance of Holo-Acacia. Not only have we incorporated all the data acquired from its performance in the previous games into the current model, we have also taken steps to make its personality more like the original Acacia.

TJ: It was sort of just on a default mode last time.

DStA: In any event, we are quite confident in our creation and hope that it can win some fans! And perhaps a bit of support from the Board for our proposals.

NGvH: You said that last part out loud, doc.

DStA: What's your point?

The camera feed ends.
