Emerald

[dramatispersonae]

Stepping through the curtains behind your team's stage, you find yourself in a green room with a line of mirrors and make up along one wall, a wardrobe along the other, and a nice catering spread on the third. In the middle of the room is a table with a pink notice written in sparkly purple pen that reads:

Aather's First Ever Total Hottie Auction

Have you ever wondered who's the hottest, most attractive, most fantastic person in all of Aather? Well it's obviously me, but number two counts for something, right?

Today we're going to have an contest to find out who's the hottest of the hot in Aather's First Ever Total Hottie Auction! First you'll need to decide among your team who's got the hots to rival everyone else. Next, pick an auctioneer who's got what it takes to sell your stuff. I'm giving you some supplies so like totally don't cheat on making yourself look beautiful!

Once all the contestants are decided it's time to let the bidding begin! We'll have three rounds of super fast super fun auctions! Everyone gets 500 points to bid but don't be afraid to be creative to bag a good one, okay?

Like, let the game begin!

[[OOC Instructions:

Pre Game:

Your teams must ICly decide on who will be their contestant for the game and who will be the auctioneer. You can also use selfies/trashy.com/what have you to dress your contestant up. Please try to keep this discussion brief.

Auctions:

There will be three rounds of auctions. Each character has 500 points for bidding for the entire game. You may bid on multiple contestants per round but you'll be penalized for bidding more than your total number of points, so bid wisely!

Outside of the auctions, points can be given and exchanged only within a team. For example, Bob and Sue are on Peridot. Bob can give all his points to Sue, giving Sue 1000 points. But Sue cannot give her 1000 points to Jill on Tiger's Eye.

Bids for contestants are not limited to points. Feel free to add other things into your bids, like offers to do chores or perform a service for the team in question.]]

[aberdevine]

On the one hand, I am obviously the prettiest. On the other hand, I'm also completely taken.

Re: [Discussion]

[bondingspirits]

. . .

Re: [Discussion]

[aberdevine]

Well, it's true.

Re: [Discussion]

[bondingspirits]

Sometimes I forget you can be like this . . .

Re: [Discussion]

[aberdevine]

[you're lucky it doesn't come up more often]

Re: [Discussion]

[bondingspirits]

So who else should we pick? That is if you don't want to participate that way.

[looks at the others]

Maybe Whiskey . . .

Re: [Discussion]

[aberdevine]

I think he'd make a better auctioneer.

Re: [Discussion]

[bondingspirits]

Mmm, that's probably true.

Re: [Discussion]

[aberdevine]

And I'm not saying I can't be the one being auctioned...

Re: [Discussion]

[bondingspirits]

[o '-']

Then I guess it's decided.

Re: [Discussion]

[existentiallychallenged]

They said "hottest", not "froofiest".

Re: [Discussion]

[aberdevine]

I'm not froofy.

Re: [Discussion]

[itsalluseless]

You are totally froofy.

Re: [Discussion]

[existentiallychallenged]

You're froofier than anyone else here at least.

Re: [Discussion]

[aberdevine]

[to both of you:]

Hey!

Re: [Discussion]

[itsalluseless]

There's no way you can deny it~

Re: [Discussion]

[existentiallychallenged]

Don't worry, we could run with it if we were auctioning you off! I'm sure some people are into that!

Re: [Discussion]

[aberdevine]

Well, I don't know who else you're planning on auctioning!

Re: [Discussion]

[existentiallychallenged]

I am obviously the hottest, most attractive, most fantastic person in all of Aather.

Re: [Discussion]

[itsalluseless]

Yeah, you just keep telling yourself that.

Re: [Discussion]

[bondingspirits]

[my teammates]

Re: [Discussion]

[existentiallychallenged]

You don't need to tell me about your jealousy. I already know.

Re: [Discussion]

[itsalluseless]

Denial's not an attractive trait, you know.

Re: [Discussion]

[aberdevine]

I think Whiskey should be the auctioneer. He's loud-mouthed enough for it.

Re: [Discussion]

[itsalluseless]

Sounds good to me.

Re: [Discussion]

[bondingspirits]

Me too.

Re: [Discussion]

[existentiallychallenged]

Fine, but only because the sound of my own voice is as great as my body.

Re: [Discussion]

[aberdevine]

See, that's exactly what I mean.

Re: [Discussion]

[existentiallychallenged]

Don't worry, I'll lie and say you're as good as me.

Re: [Discussion]

[aberdevine]

Yes, yes, how thoughtful of you.

Re: [Discussion]

[existentiallychallenged]

You're welcome!

Re: [Discussion]

[itsalluseless]

If we're not counting people who are taken, I'm also out.

Re: [Discussion]

[bondingspirits]

Ohhh, really . . . ?

Re: [Discussion]

[itsalluseless]

Really.

Re: [Discussion]

[bondingspirits]

Congratulations.

Re: [Discussion]

[itsalluseless]

Thanks. Well, it's really been going on for a while now...

Re: [Discussion]

[bondingspirits]

Ah, sorry. I guess I should have been paying more attention...

Re: [Discussion]

[itsalluseless]

Don't worry, it's not like we've been that open about it.
