PAPER RITUAL - END

[Bodies litter the pasture now, as the demons cackle through the air.

The blood that flowed from everyone converges on the paper flower, turning it a bright, disgusting red.

And then--something bursts from it. Another shadowy demonic beast, emerging with unfurled black wings. For those still alive, it looks something like a crow.

Black feathers scatter all over the pasture, and the voices of the demons are overjoyed. "She's returned! She's truly returned! Oh glorious day, our time has come--!"

The beast flies into the sky, easily bypassing the pasture's barrier, and simply....disappears. And with it, the oddities of the ritual.

All the remaining paper withers. and those living can hear a faint voice.

Well done, mortals. Finally you show your worth.

For the most ruthless, Rose, Daffodil, Weeds, Lily, Peony, you have our thanks.

The rest of you. . .what pleasant sacrifices you all made, hahahaHAHAHA!

And it is gone.

[OOC:
WINNERS get revived painlessly, and any special effects incurred are instantly poof, gone! BONUSES WILL BE ANNOUNCED LATER/IN THE MORNING BUT YOU'LL GET SHIT FOR OUR SACRIFICES.

HOWEVER no limbs regrow if you're missing them. You gotta fix that shit yourself.

ETA WINNER BOONS
Each winning team gets the standard memory coins, along with their trees taking on the following changes/sprouting fruit:
Daffodil - Buddha's Hand.
Lily - Cherries
Rose - Pineapple (yes i know shh). But most curiously, their tree blooms into a giant rose. Not a tree with roses, a giant rose flower. It's stem is large enough to be climbed like a tree trunk, and its thorns act as branches. The fruit hands from stray leaves/petals.
Peony - Dragonfruit

WEEDS curiously, will have a strange plant growing on the grounds near their clubhouse. Uh oh are those Avocados?? Sure are.

MINI BONUSES
MOST READY KILL - Daffodil - They receive 50lbs of meat of whatever they desire. This can be a creature from home or just like. a lot of steaks. They will also find that for the next 3 ic days, they will auto-heal from any sort of injury whether they use their powers or not.

MOST 'can you lighten up a bit' - Weeds/Rose. They receive two sets of clothing; one any design in their standard fashion (ripped/suits), but the other can be in ANY STYLE so long as there is a flower of some sort incorporated into it somewhere, no matter how small.

MOST 'aren't you tired of being nice' - Peony - they'll find their Horse ability extended by 24 hours for the next 3 ic days. (tho it does not have to last that long)

MOST Survivor's Guilt - Lily - Ananke gets a knife made of pure silver, but it can be molded into any other kind of weapon.

DAFFODIL, ROSE, AND PEONY also instinctively know they can request a barn upgrade OR a community upgrade (one or the other, and it can't be something that's a deal in progress). Let Ash know what you want by Wednesday so I can incorporate in the next mingle!

Losers - Bluebell, Clover, Thistle. Oh buddies. Any dead MUST be manually put together/fixed by others, and also will incur a Paper Curse. This can either be:
-True words will appear on their body like ink/tattoos at inconvenient times
-They will become Light as Paper for two IC days and thus easily blown away/knocked down
-or have their soul trapped in an origami paper animal and just be that for a day.
SINCE THIS GAME WENT BUCK WILD this will only effect those present.]

which is to say

deeeeeeep breaths]

[ also dead but like what else is new am i right lmao ]

[Still a corpse with a dismembered arm, slashed chest, snapped neck, and covered in saliva . . . But with the addition of Lyra's tears now! Boy got worked and people still wanted to eat him, wow.]

[ Well. Crescendo is incredibly dead. His entire body is broken and twisted gruesomely in on itself. The cat ears that had lingered upon his head are mysteriously gone now, as well as his tail.]

[ He's dead, just laying in the grass being dead. He's got several broken ribs and his lower body is covered in deep gashes. ]

[ oh and his throat is cut so that seems to be what killed him. ]

[ since we WON are special effects are GONE good news bad news is ]

Technomantic energy charging... 30%... 50%... 60%...

[ the laser is charging ]

[ Not dead! That is as positive as we get today, though he's also not got any broken bones. ]

[ He is sweating, but he's standing up shakily and looks fine now??? Aside from his pants legs by his ankles stained in blood. Ignore how traumatized and normal he seems. ]

... what a mess.

[ Going to be looking around for anyone that he recognizes and also probably checking to see who needs healing ]

( theres a heap of dead harmony. bones-snapped harmony. crushed internally harmony.

things should stop happening to her. but they won't. )

[You know. The nightmare of seeing your teammates rot to death, and then finding out they're alive but cannot see you, and then immediate seeing them bleed to death . . .

Man, that's a lot for a Pudding who doesn't care for people...

Man...

Well, he'll eventually be back once Daffodil is alive again, but he's not going to be very normal Pudding for a moment.]

[she is not dead, but she is sprawled over the dead body of her brother! cool.

she's crying, and her back is incredibly burnt.]

[ Scarab is covered in confetti and looking positively murderous ]

[sits up as his throat instantly knits itself back together like jesus christ. what the fuck--

wow he got off light, huh]

[lol he ded]

[ she is just. sitting fucking somewhere on the grass, face buried in her hand.

Spinel isn't dead! incredible! but her right arm is pretty mangled and bloodied, hanging uselessly at her side. ]

[Flora is very dead, crumpled into a disturbingly small volume, due to her body being folded in on itself on top of being pretty small to start with.]
