Fairy Fanfic Festival

[stringmods]

Who: Everyone signed up here!
Where: It's a secret to everybody.
When: February 14th-16th
Summary: The most terrible romantic day of the year has arrived!
Warnings: Lingerie and fluff

You awaken in a dark room.

...To the sound of giggling.

"Ohmygosh, they're finally awake!" The shrill voice elicits an uncontrollable wince of pain; as the lights flicker on, the wince is liable to evolve into a full-on expression of abject horror. Everything is pink. The bed is pink. The walls are pink. The flower petals are pink. The confetti and streamers are pink. The enormous scented candles strewn about everywhere are pink.

............The tight briefs and/or lingerie that may or may not be on your body in place of your own underwear are pink (You do get to keep your clothing, so this part is optional if you don't want to play it - your characters can wake up in their normal bedclothes or day clothes if you like. However, if your characters do wake up in sexy underwear or their PJs, their normal clothes will be in a nearby dresser.)

Before you have too much time to consider exactly what's going on, the voice sounds again.

"We are going to have so much fun! We just knew the two of you would be perfect together. No connection to the outside world whatsoever! No need to thank us! Now, we'll just be here in the corner and you two can just... oh, you know!"

The fairy blushes and sighs longingly.

"OK! Good luck!"

'The two of you'? What t --

Right about then, you realize someone else is in bed next to you.

[The event has begun! Please refer to this post to see how things will go. If you prefer not to have fairies directly involved, they will very generously allow you a little time ~alone~ if you ask, though they will return. Otherwise, they will be scribbling notes, drawing and narrating your "steamy romance" (romance may not be as steamy as implied). Characters can attack the fairies all they like, but it will have no effect, as they're projecting themselves in with magic while they watch from the safety of their little pixie laptops.

Remember that you control the fairies and what they say. We've created an npc account pixielove and you can find the password here, so have fun! You're free to use the account or not at your discretion.

Additionally, for the 14th to the 15th at night, anyone stuck together will not be able to contact the outside world. Don't worry, the fairies will let everyone know you're safe!]

[She grins.]

I've always been partial to death rays too. They're a lot more fun to build. And if that doesn't work, we could always just rig it to explode. Best of both worlds that way.

[She does turn to see what he found, but just as quickly looks away again.]

Do people really wear things like that?

[swordsaintseta]

Hm, I guess that would work..!

[Sounding so confident as Agatha does, Soujirou doesn't question her ability to pull something like that together.]

...I believe they do. There seem to be shops just for such things too, so someone must buy and wear them!

-oh good!

[He laughs briefly, pulling out a light blue haori. He drapes it over his arm as he goes through the rest of the drawer.]

Well, no weapons, but I found my clothes!

[ding_bots_are_done]

Ugh. You wouldn't catch me in-

[But she stops short and whirls around excitedly when he mentions finding his clothes.]

Really? Do you think mine are in there?

[Not that she hasn't worked in a corset and bloomers before, but she doesn't want to make a habit of it. Besides, if her clothes are in there, maybe some of her tools are too. She walks over to look through the drawer herself.]

[swordsaintseta]

Maybe in the other drawer!

[He suggests this since he's already gone through and emptied the one, and the contents had been all his clothing and slippers. Soujirou gestures towards the next drawer over since he doesn't want to go through her things if it does turn out to be Agatha's!

But in the meantime he'll shuffle over to pull on his kimono and hakama pants.]

At least that's one thing taken care of... So, can you really make a weapon that might get us out of here?

["Oh, that's not romantic at all!" The once giggly voices begin to complain. "When you wake up and find such an attractive person at your side, you should greet them with a kiss! Well, it's not too late to do so!"]

1/2

[ding_bots_are_done]

[She opens up the drawer, and pulls out a long green dress. And a work apron. She's more excited about that second thing. Especially because of the several small wrenches in the pockets. Now they're in business.]

Yeah, I can make us some weapons. Hopefully they'll get us out of here. Want to lend a hand?

2/2

[ding_bots_are_done]

[But the pixie's comments get a look of irritation and a huffy sigh.]

Look, I don't know what the castle told you, but I do not just kiss every handsome man I wake up with!


.....That came out wrong.

[swordsaintseta]

Just let me know what you need!

[He shakes out his haori coat before slipping it on, although the extra pixie comments give him pause again.]

I guess they're still around...

[At Agatha's comment, he can't help but laugh a little.]

[That sends the pixies tittering as well. "Oh, well we can work with that! Clearly our candidate here must prove himself! But how can she resist him! She glances over and can't help but notice his handsome, glowing face, his long luxurious hair, eyes that you could fall into~!"]

[Soujirou just looks confused at that.]

What...are they trying to do exactly, anyway..?

[ding_bots_are_done]

From the looks of it, they're trying to encourage me to design a fairy hunting clank.

[Yeah she does not find this funny anymore.]

C'mon, let's gather up everything in the room that could be cannibalized for parts.

[swordsaintseta]

[He's not sure what that is, but he supposes the best they can do is ignore the strange chatter.]

Ah, all right.

[Nodding at Agatha, Soujirou begins to look around. Unfortunately he's never had any crafting subclass, so figuring out the potential of any materials is something he's just going to have to guess at.]

[ding_bots_are_done]

[Agatha is piling up a strange assortment of things ranging from the coffee maker to several coat hangers to a lamp from the desk.]

The shower curtain in the bathroom, can you pull it down and bring it over?

[swordsaintseta]

The shower curtain? Ah, okay- one second!

[He looks around and points himself towards the bathroom.]

-uwah! It's even pink in here!

[ding_bots_are_done]

Why am I not surprised?

[She's regarding the chocolate fountain and it's array of delicious dippable fruits again. Thoughtfully.]

Did you want any of this? I'm gonna take the fountain apart, but we could eat some of it first.

[swordsaintseta]

So long as it's not poisoned or anything!

[He replies this rather cheerily as he steps back into the main room, his arms full of pink vinyl dotted with shiny hearts.]

[ding_bots_are_done]

[She shrugs and shakes her head.]

Nah, if they just wanted us dead there's about fifty ways they could've done that while we were sleeping.

[Yeah, she's gonna have a little. Maybe just a strawberry or two. Shame to let it go to waste.]

[swordsaintseta]

I guess that's true.

[He sets his armload down on the bed so he can have a look at the selection. It does look tasty, he'll admit!]

[ding_bots_are_done]

If anything, I suspect they're looking for.... entertainment.

[Agatha helps herself to one of the strawberries, making a slightly pleased noise at the taste. It's surprisingly good.]

[swordsaintseta]

[He nibbles on a strawberry after dipping its tip in chocolate.]

Entertainment... Surely there are other things to entertain themselves with...

[ding_bots_are_done]

Well, maybe they'll get tired of this and go bother some other people.

[ /optimism! ]

You know, I don't think we introduced ourselves yet. I'm Agatha. Agatha Heterodyne.

[swordsaintseta]

Maybe... Although they certainly went through a lot of trouble just to do this.

[He shrugs- and then blinks at Agatha.]

Oh, that's right! We didn't!

[With a sheepish smile, he bows politely.]

Soujirou Seta. It's nice to meet you, Agatha. Ah...well I guess the circumstances could be better, but..!

[ding_bots_are_done]

I've met people under worse circumstances. A lot worse.

[Like Gil. And Tarvek. And Moloch von Zinzer.]

Actually, this is pretty pleasant by comparison. It's nice to meet you.

[swordsaintseta]

Well, if you say so!

[He's not sure how things could get worse, but it's probably better not to think about it.]

So, I guess you like to build things?

[ding_bots_are_done]

Trust me. No one is trying to kill either of us, so this is practically fun.

[Then her smile turns bright and excited.]

Love it. There's nothing better than creating something new or different with nothing more than your own ingenuity.

[swordsaintseta]

Although at least under that sort of circumstance, you'd know who you should deal with...

[What can he say, he's better at battles than something like this. Yet, he can't help but chuckle a little as Agatha responds, even though her expression speaks for her already.]

Hehe, I can tell! I couldn't begin to figure out how you'd make any sort of weapon out of all this stuff you've gathered, though.

[ding_bots_are_done]

[She grins confidently. That sounded like a challenge.]

Ha! Are you kidding? There's plenty of options here. Watch.

[It's time to get to work. She turns back to their collection of stuff, cracks her knuckles, and then picks up the coffee maker. As she takes that apart, she starts humming. A strange sort of hum. Somehow she's producing two notes at once. She reaches for a coat hanger. He is about to witness the near total disregard for the laws of physics that a spark brings to the table.]

[swordsaintseta]

[He doesn't mean it that way, but he'll watch intently, nonetheless! Soujirou's rather eager to see what Agatha will come up with.]
