TURQUOISE

You can see the other teams, but there is an invisible barrier preventing you from hearing them. You can assume that they can't hear you, either. There is a hefty serving of sweet wine and liquor, should you choose it. With a loaf of bread that you can slice. Nimue is in the center of the formation of teams, and when she speaks, you can hear her loud and clear.

"Storytelling has been a tradition of the knights of Camelot for some time. They would tell of the awesome feats of their king, and of their fellow knights... and... they were also prone to exaggeration in some cases."

There appears a small set of cards next to the liquor. You can read them, or you can implicitly understand them if you can't read.

"What feats have the heroes of Aather accomplished, I wonder? And what... exaggerations they may take? Before you, you will find prompts for your tales. You will write one for yourselves, for a set of knights, and for another team. I will select the most inspiring, as will your peers."

She tilts her head. "Ah, perhaps it is bad to encourage grandstanding..."

But before you can ask her, she vanishes.

A forgetful day, a dangerous murderer.

Yuri and Zero and their hidden pleasure.

What kind of prompt is this?

Maybe they just...have a really weird favorite food?

I don't think that's what it's suggesting.

I'd...rather pretend that it is.

Jasper, the day they could not sit still.

[...reaching for the wine, yes]

Echo will need this for such prompts.

[eyeing the prompts]

They're rather...creative.

That must mean that the more creative the story is, the more likely it is to win the game.

This is just embarrassing.

Great job, Echo! I'm glad we left that task to you!

Oh well, Turquoise's loss.

No, this is exactly how it should have been handled, you are simply upset that your story is not as impressive.

Yeah, sure.

I kick ass at telling stories, okay. I do. I'm just dizzy right now.

Echo's told stories that have secured alcohol, a jacket, and a trampoline.

What have your stories done?

~~There was once a murderer~~

~~This story begins with a murderer~~

~~On a forgetful day, this dangerous murderer named Z——~~

~~On a forgetful day, this dangerous murderer named V——~~

~~This nameless murderer, on this forgettable day~~

There was never a murderer. The day was so forgettable that there is no story to be told.

The end.

The knight of Onyx, Yuri, had a dark secret. Every night when the rest of Onyx was sleeping, he'd tiptoe into each of their rooms and steal the socks of his fellow knights. Though he knew stealing was wrong, he couldn't help himself. At the end of each night, he found himself in a pile of other people's socks, racked with guilt over what he had done.

One night, unable to handle the guilt any longer, he took a pile of stolen socks out to Onyx's pond. "This will be the end of my sock-thieving days," he said to himself. He hoped that people would at least be able to sort out which socks were theirs in the morning, as the shame was too great for him to stay and wait.

But just as he turned to leave, Thorn from Sterling came with his own pile of old socks. "This will be the end for my sock-thieving days as well," Thorn said, and he dropped his pile of socks next to Yuri's.

They were so happy at finding someone that shared their problem and relieved to have finally put a stop to it, that they spent all night talking to each other. By the time morning rose, they were the best of friends, and they were no longer so shamed that they couldn't help give their stolen socks back to the rightful owners.

The End!

So this is the story the day Jasper couldn't sit still.

One day, Jasper woke up and realized that no one knew who the fuck they were. There was that one guy, and that other guy who is a bird, but beyond that, none of the other teams had any idea about anything to do with Jasper. Well, obviously, friendship being the most important thing in the entire universe and the central governing goal of anything anyone does here, Jasper had to change that. They tried meeting as many teams as possible, and the guy with the notebook, the one in Jasper, decided to start putting on performances to teach everyone about what a great team Jasper is. Unfortunately, the performances sucked, and they were as little known as ever.

Then, one day, the entire team of Jasper developed an infestation of ass mites. Tiny, ravenous insects crawled up their assholes and began mauling them from the inside out, so much that Jasper immediately had to begin questing for enough insect repellant to drown a tiny village. A tiny village made of asshole dwelling bugs. So it goes without saying that Jasper sure as fuck could not sit still while this was going on.

While waiting for the bug repellant quests, Jasper put on a performance. This time, the performance was great and suddenly, magically, there were some people who gave two shits about Jasper. You see, these weren't any ordinary wastetube dwelling vermin. These were our newest personae, a colony of magical parasites, and in return for living arrangements they had blessed Jasper with the gift of not being completely forgettable in every way.

And from that day forward, everyone was best friends forever and got along, and they probably lived happily ever after or some shit like that, too.
