Elbereth she/her Posted January 19, 2021 Author Posted January 19, 2021 AG7: Day 7 - Glitterally Deadly So, what will we do for the writeup this week? I don’t know. Nothing even happens. Yeah. Surely we can think of something? Even if someone had been attacked and survived, that’d help. Well.......... Does it have to be a player that was attacked? Uhh. Yes? It kinda does? Okay, but consider: Wilson, the Bloodthirsty Goddess the Brightness Ascendant, walked through the Cosmere, surveying her work. She’d delivered all the messages she was supposed to, letting the Cosmere’s most powerful know where they stood with each other, but she was bored. Usually the information she delivered was important! Significant! She’d heralded the deaths of Shardholders, the splintering of Shards, the destruction of entire planets and what was there now? Nothing. She sighed. At least she’d gotten to them all this time before that cheeky interloper Elbereth could. In fact, she hadn’t seen any trace of the girl at all recently..... Wilson shrugged. I’m sure she’ll turn up eventually. Then she heard a rumbling noise behind her, and the ground started to shake. She looked back just in time to see a big sparkling something before it hit her, nearly knocking herself off her feet. Regaining her footing, she looked up and saw - well, things approximately the size and shape of boulders, except... glittering. And hurtling towards her at- crash! Another boulder slammed into her from behind, knocking her to her knees. Sighing internally, Wilson covered her head rather than getting up to just be knocked down again. As more boulders hit her, she noticed that while the initial hit of the things was hard enough to cause bruises, upon contact they just - shattered? Exploded was the better word, maybe, into showers of glitter that fell softly around her. She winced and closed her eyes. Well, there goes this dress, she thought somewhat distantly, trying not to laugh hysterically at the absurdity of the whole situation. She counted at least a dozen more impacts before the rumbling finally stopped. After waiting a moment longer to make sure there were no more surprises in store, she judged it was safe to get up. Groaning slightly, Wilson pulled herself to her feet and took stock. She was absolutely covered in glitter - as was the land around her for several hundred yards, and deep enough to be nearly up to her knees. It was in her mouth, even. She tried to spit it out but she could still feel the flakes of glitter. And she couldn’t very well use her hands to get the glitter out of her mouth or off her face or…..off her dress. They were covered in as much glitter as the rest of her. A few feet away from her, in a particularly high pile of glitter, she noticed a long shaft sticking out at an angle. Also made of glitter (or just covered in it; she probably looked like she was made of glitter right now), but... She waded her way over and pulled at the thing, uncovering a long spear with a point that - well, it wasn’t sharp exactly, but it definitely would’ve hurt if it had been on target. She took a deep breath and blew on the glitter on her hands. The glitter swirled up and went into her eyes and down her throat. She recoiled, coughing, and blinked hard. That….had been a mistake. She stared at her hands, at a loss for what to do. Then her eyes narrowed. She growled, curling her hands into fists at her side, and stomping her foot into the glitter surrounding her. She knew exactly who had done this, and there would be a price to pay. El attacked Wilson, but other than that nothing happened! Day 7 has begun and will end in 45.5 hours at 8am MST on January 21.

Violet Axolotl Posted January 19, 2021 Posted January 19, 2021 That's amazing Good work. Octopus, right?
Magenta Albatross Posted January 19, 2021 Posted January 19, 2021 I think this means that an elim was roleblocked. I heard that Weasel, Octopus, and Chameleon are all being roleblocked. Of those three, I'm still the most susicious of Octopus. 1
Charcoal Hyena Posted January 19, 2021 Posted January 19, 2021 I shall vote on the Octopus and be a sheep Until the the time comes for us all to sleep. I've been done for some time, So I'll sit back and sip wine While the others perish and weep. Fair fortune my friends Until the bitter end. Keteks are lovely, words fit patterns, poets make poetry patterns, fitting words, lovely architects.

[OOC: Weasel didn't get RBed. We were trying to scan Weasel to see who they targeted, so that RBer didn't target Weasel. But I'm a fool because I wasn't thinking and I was supposed to clear/scan Vulture, who RBed Octopus. But I screwed up really badly after discussing Elim suspects in the Roshar doc and just automatically entered Weasel. This is why I should never be entrusted with a kill role because I wouldn't even know how to begin to explain this if I had been a Village vig set to Vulture. tldr; 1. I'm a fool. 2. I hate myself. 3. Octopus was roleblocked. Also the Braize stuff. 4. I'm sorry. 5. I scanned Weasel instead and Weasel didn't take any action at all. 6. I will reflect on my wrongdoings.] Edited January 19, 2021 by Azure Mouse

Onyx Flamingo Posted January 19, 2021 Posted January 19, 2021 so, octopus time?? i've heard that they're probably an elim at this point!!

Quartz Zebra Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 Sorry for my lack of contribution. School started today and I'm moving back across the country tomorrow. I may or may not be able to do something besides place an uninformed vote this cycle. Also, Sophos officially is resigning his post as Stormwarden, in tandem with his final prediction that there won't be any future Highstorms (watch there be one on FotS after I say this).
Ivory Dragonfly Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 I am so happy to see wilson be attacked with glitter again. Its been far, far, too long. At least there's no syrup mixed in with it this time ;P
Sapphire Elephant Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 "muahahahahahha i jusht realised i have 3 votesh this cycle. lookatme be so powerful muahahaha"

Azure Mouse Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 [OOC: So, theory from the Scadrial doc (woooh we have a lot of people on metal rave world this cycle!!!!!) So we all know that El attacked Wilson with glitterbombs. So they're kinda sparkly like stars, right? And then they exploded, so the stars kind of 'bled.' What I'm getting at guys, is this is really obvious now! This game, AG7, is AZOR AHAI. This is the GAME THAT WAS PROMISED, born under a 'bleeding star', as El struck Wilson. It was born amidst salt and the smoke of a thousand roleclaims. It awoke drama from stone. It is the Game That was Promised, and to it belongs the song of ice and fire. AZOR AHAI CONFIRMED NOTHING YOU CAN SAY WILL DISSUADE ME 20/10 the GOT ending we deserved smdh apologies to anyone who never watched GOT you didn't miss out] 1
