or so you've been promised, anyway. whether you believe it or not, whether you decide to make the most of it or not, today is team audentes' annual (that's right, it's tradition now) game of SNOWBALL TAG! teams have been assigned, messaged, and given their team ribbons*. all were told to meet at their designated spots to go over battle plans, practice the team motto/battle cry, or just generally try and get a good idea of who you probably shouldn't be aiming for. the battle begins at high noon (shout out to mccree i love you bruh) and ends when there is only one team left standing...

the rules are as follows!! ]

1. no biting, eye-gouging, fish-hooking
2. no aiming below the belt
3. only hits to count are those that land in the torso region, front or back
4. three hits and you're out
5. seriously you're out WE'RE GOING BY AN HONOR SYSTEM OKAY
6. no cheating!
7. but feel free to make use of the terrain
8. battle grounds stretch from the lake to the forest and all around the exterior of the castle area
9. "friendly fire" totally counts so make sure you know who you're aiming for
10. have fun!! :)

snowgue one

[viscontree]

Maya,you're going to catch a cold.

[Why does he feel like saying this is useless? He just tells her what's best anyways...because he tries to be sensible.]

You may want to avoid playing there.

1/2

[feytality]

[It is, but bless him for trying]

[Maya recognizes this guy. What was his name again? Julia? Coolio? Something like that. The memory's burned into her mind.... the day when he tried to convince her vegetables were delicious. This man, who'd never even tasted ramen.]

[That was a dark time]

It's not that bad! Besides, I gotta, ah, ah...

[feytality]

AAACHOOOOO!

[How predictable.]

[viscontree]

[Gently shaking his head. ]

You 'gotta' what? I didn't quite catch what you said.

[There was no way for him to! She sneezeed!!! ]

[feytality]

I have an important mission! And no cold is going to keep me down!

[As if to prove her point, she throws another snowball..... Which misses him completely]

[viscontree]

I'm almost certain that a cold would keep anyone in bed.

At least wear something a little warmer. Is that the only type of clothing available to you?

[He stares at her, half concerned.]

[feytality]

That was a warning shot!

[That completely missed...]

[But, hey, guess who didn't take a good look at her Audentes package and totally missed the new uniform]

Um... no? This is what I always wear?

Where else am I supposed to find clothing?

[Crickets]

[viscontree]

They gave everyone a uniform here. Didn't you see it?

It may not suit your style, but it should keep you warm. [He's really worried about her. This is well founded concern!]

[feytality]

[What is this "worry".....]

[Maya does compute]

WHAT!? Seriously?! There's a uniform?! And we get magic jewelry?! This place is cooler than I thought!

[she may be getting the wrong idea from this]

[viscontree]

Don't get too excited. They're both very important tools for us.

You should go check for yours.

[She really is, his concern grows more by the minute. He doesn't wanna leave Maya alone.]

[feytality]

["Don't get too excited"...... Julius do you know who you're talking to]

Are we gonna have matching uniforms? Like superheroes?!

[She's already forgetting about the snowball fight and bouncing back to the castle... except, oops, which way is it??]

[viscontree]

[He has no idea....rip.]

Yes, if you want to look at it that way. We are saving other worlds in a similar fashion.

[No he's just saying that so Maya will be more agreeable.]

[feytality]

[Time to get lost forever]

Sooo... that kinda makes you my sidekick, doesn't it? Maybe you should wear tights and a cape!

[viscontree]

I'll humbly refuse that offer, thank you.

Besides, are tights and capes truly necessary? [ARE THEY?]

[feytality]

Too late. You're perfect sidekick material!

I guess the cape is, I dunno about the tights.

[viscontree]

Won't tights be hard to move in? I can't see it being efficient for mobility.

You should think this one through again. [He live with the cape at least, no tights please.]

[feytality]

If you're a real superhero, you can move around no matter what! Besides, it's not about thinking, it's about the look. Sidekicks always wear a funny outfit!

[Case in point: Maya right here]

[viscontree]

Somehow, I don't think that's how it works. Could it be that sidekicks just have bad fashion sense?

[Was that ever a possibility? MAYA WHY...]

[feytality]

Now, now, Mr. Visconti, don't put yourself down like that. Your fashion sense is at least okay!

[She's never letting this go]

[viscontree]

Well, I appreciate it. I would hope that it'd be somewhat acceptable compared to those ridiculous side kicks.

Since you're in a strange outfit, does that make you a sidekick too?

[rip in pieces.]

[feytality]

What? [Wow, how dare he!! For his insolence, he's subjected to the Pufferfish Face.]

My outfit isn't strange! It's my training uniform!

[Clearly this face will intimidate him into apologizing]

[viscontree]

Training uniform? I beg your pardon. From an outsider perspective it doesn't look very practical.

I would have assumed it was your own fashion sense at work. [He's not apologizing just yet! What kind of place wears those uniforms?]

[feytality]

Well, change your dumb perspective! It's what all acolytes wear.

[Quick, apologize before she puffs her cheeks even more]

[viscontree]

So you're an acolyte then. That makes more sense. My apologies for not understanding your situation.

[So she's not just a strange girl with a strange wardrobe, okay that's fair.]

Do you partake in spiritual training?

[feytality]

... It's okay. [Immediately mollified by his apology, what a chump] I get that a lot, actually.

I sure do! In fact, if you've seen any waterfalls around, let me know, 'cause I need to get cracking. [Since her spiritual powers are weak.. She has to train hard to make it up to Nick!!] What about you, Mr. Visconti? What's your uniform all about?
