Ritual 17 - Ghosts of Christmas Past
Dec. 8th, 2023 10:20 am![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
WHO: Everyone
WHERE: Everywhere
WHEN: Day 46, evening
[ Well! Isn't this a fine day? Despite the snow — or perhaps because of it — it's been a fairly chill (haha) day. So chill, in fact, that people may not have noticed Faith slipping out of her tower and heading to the edge of the pasture. Once she's by the fence, she draws a knife across the palm of her hand before pressing the mark on her arm.
The sky flashes red briefly and then there's . . . more light flurries falling? Huh.
More notable is the big red sleigh that is now going to and fro across the pasture sky. It's led by eight reindeer who seem to be doing a bang up job of keeping it just out of reach, even if people are able to fly. Sitting in the sleigh is Faith herself, all dressed up and looking pretty pleased with herself. Seated next to her holding the reins to the sleigh is what appears to be the ninth reindeer, a skeletal being with a festive hat planted between his tinsel-decorated antlers, his nose glowing an eerie shade of red.
Suddenly, everyone will find themselves with two bingo boards and a stack of memory coins. But these coins aren't normal, as indicated by their candy cane color scheme and the visage of the reindeer demon printed on one side. Instinctively, you know you are responsible for imbuing these coins with memories yourself and that they will work in any water source.
The demon's voice echoes into the night: ]
Share amongst thyselves and release the ghosts of the past once and for all.
[ MEMSHARE RITUAL TIME. The breakdown can be found over here with a link to the bingo cards. Turn in goes here and is due by midnight PST on 12/14. Results will go up at some point on the 15th! ]

WHO: lily, bluebell, aides, maomao
WHERE: lily
WHEN: day 42
[what up. we are all gathered here today to hopefully CALL SOME GHOSTS and GET SOME INFO
the setup is not really all that fancy because it just straight relies on Lily powers, but it does still manage to be a bit eldritch. Lily has cleared a wide space in their ground floor common area to do the summoning, which looks kind of empty and forlorn right now. there is a faux body stolen from Rose to use as a potential vessel, just kinda sitting slumped over in the space, and another, much smaller ordinary doll made of cloth and straw next to it.]

WHO: lilybell
WHERE: lilybell
WHEN: morning 39 (forward dated)
[so! it's a new day! the birds are singing, the sun is shining once more, Bluebell is no longer under compulsion to form a katamari (though they might still be one anyway, who knows) aaaaaand it's been almost two weeks IC since 'maybe we should actually talk through our alliance stuff, especially with regards to rituals' came up so it's definitely past time to make that happen for realsies.
your shepherds have been cooking a breakfast spread to everyone's tastes since the wee hours because they are stupid nerds who still mostly do not sleep (yes Mute gets their very specific taste preferences, yes Aides's breakfast is cut into small cubes and probably needs to be assembled like a puzzle for eating). through the magic of handwave your character has been informed they will chat alliance after everyone's done eating! through the magic of handwave this talk also fits in the timeline regardless of what happens on day 38 with strange glass witches pulled out of people's heads.
GOOD MORNING, LILYBELL.]

WHO: Anyone
WHERE: The Fountain and then all over
WHEN: Day 37 Evening
[Well here's a weird scene--there's Blossom at the fountain! But also--the snake?? They appear to be fighting. . .well, it's more like a very pathetic slap fight, with Blossom flailing her hooves as she tries to keep a sealed box away from him, and the snake hisses and flails the tip of his tail back.]
I'm not going to let you ruin this for them!!
My influence is spreading!! Take this, kah!!
[. . .he just flings some dirt in her eye, and she drops the box, the seal cracking, and dozens upon dozens of lights fly up, all over the pasture, like little fireflies.]

No!! What did you--

Heck.
[the snake laughs!! and looks. confused??? yes this is exactly what he meant to do probably. OFF INTO THE SHADOWS HE GOES!!
A BUNCH OF LIGHTS ESCAPE FROM THE BOX. There are seven colors total - 6 in team colors, and one in pink. Touching the lights causes the following:
1) Yellow - DRAGON. Characters become a dragon! Interpret how you see fit. This could be a tiny chibi dragon, or you just have dragon parts, or you are a dog to small cow sized dragon now. Or you can shift, I don't care. And yes you can fly.
Ability: Fire Breath - Can breathe out normal fire OR a special colored fire that doesn't hurt but instead causes people to compliment/praise you and others!
2) Red - VAMPIRE. You're now a vampire, fangs and all! Maybe your heart stops, you get paler, any tropes are welcome, including turning into a cute bat. You have the urge to drink blood but not lethal.
ABILITY: Love Bite! Biting someone makes the vampire feel HYPE. And the 'victim' feels like woah they REALLY WANT SOME FRIENDS RIGHT NOW, golly.
3)Blue - MERMAID. You're a mermaid now, sorry for the cultural appropriation tweels. Whether you only shift in water or if you have fins and such on land is up to you!
Ability: Bubbles! Can create bubbles to lift anything not too crazy, or with the effect of making people super giddy and touchy feely.
4)Green - NYMPH. YOU'RE A PLANT/DRYIAD NOW. *MOST* tropes apply, but no you cannot grow fruits, food, wolfsbane or more limbus. Your team flower and other established normal plants are fair game tho.
Ability: Leaf Whistle! Make a whistle from plants for music. Oh also it makes people want to overshare stuff with you.
5)Purple - GHOST - OH SHIT YOU'RE A GHOST NOW. Ask Yata for tips. Standard tropes apply but except no you cannot visit the underworld, you will be auto rejected and don't get any ideas about the mist, they can still sense and consume you. But hey have fun being incorporeal!
Ability: Soul Swap! Can possess people (with ooc permission) or cause body swaps.
6) White - PIXIE. You're a pixie or faerie now, complete with wings and maybe a cute tinkerbell like outfit idk. You can also shrink and buzz around at will!
Ability: Pixie Dust! Can act as just fun glitter OR truth dust.
PINK- Touch this light and change back to normal!
The lights will be around the rest of the month! Ignore them! Or don't! Engage as little or as much as you want. All normal Flock and canon powers act the same as usual!]
