SUMMARY: lance organized a snowball tag event and now everyone can hate him for it

[ the time has come. the day you have all been waiting for. today... we dine in snow hell heck.

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!! :)

[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?

[viscontree]

A waterfall? Alright then, I'll call you as soon as I find them.

[He nods at her request. Julius doesn't seem to recall finding any waterfalls around lately. Her question gets him to stop. ]

I'm a military soldier. Everyone in my unit wears this.

[feytality]

I'm counting on you!

[Huh, she thought he was some kind of butler] Really, the army? Do you drive a tank or something?

[viscontree]

Nothing like that. I led a squad and we protected people.

Similar to what we're doing now, I suppose.

[It's not too different, they're just with ALASTAIR now.]

Is your spiritual training similar to magic that I keep hearing about?

[feytality]

Woah! You're an army captain? [Maybe that's why he's so serious.... but somehow, she hadn't expected that from him] So, were your missions like this? Save space and time and whatever?

[But that's a question.... she's surprised by the amount of people with special abilities here. Even magic, but]

...I don't think so. I didn't think magic like this existed, so I dunno too much about it. But spirit channeling isn't really magic.... even if it is kinda magical, I guess. [That made no sense, but okay, Maya]
