EXPLORATION EVENT: NEVERWERE

Who: Everyone!
What: Your wildest dreams come true!
When: May 15th to May 18th
Where: Ziziphus, those still on Ensō...and Mu
Warnings: Mark as needed!

Then Know That My Life Was Just a Killer Dream
You can find most of the information you need in the OOC info post! In the meantime, feel free to use this log as a catch-all for your dream worlds, as well as detailing your efforts to free one another. Whether they're on Ziziphus or Ensō at the time of the dreams' capture, your character is free to access as many dreams as you like, as the interlocking mental landscape allows for that sort of crossing over apropos of nothing. And time, of course, is very fluid in dreams - many days, months, and years can transpire in a matter of mere minutes.

Will you fight your way free from Ziziphus's vines or Mu's thrall, or are you content to die in your sleep?

Remember to let us know if your character dies during this event!

Hide and Seek is out, prestidigitating cats is in. This new furry hobby is going to become a family tradition, pasttime, whatever. The island needed some kind of build a bear to round out the walmart and cafe. This is close enough.

There are no words. None. She does a little hop and makes a beeline for her fuzzy friend, swooping the cat into her arms in one terrible motion. She loves it. So much. Poncho flower crown cat with cake on the side?? This is the best day ever. It seems like he's won. She's certainly acting like it's the best cat she's ever seen in her ding dang life, though she reaches down to give Taako cat a quick pat on the head as well.

"You made me into the best cat, so I win," The incredible leap of logic that occurred here happens in a flash. If the winning cat looks like her, does that not mean she won?? In some way? Spiritually?? He made her the symbol of victory in this magic show. "Because this is my 'twin' now. That's how it works."

But she'll at least offer an incredible consolation prize. "You still get five gold stars."

Taako barely has time to strike his proudest pose before the specifics of the accolades sink in, and they're not what he expects. Unsurprising since, y'know, Ren. Outrage, betrayal, cheating-- he gasps, scandalized. He'd say she learned from the best, but she was already like this when he found her. But he'll let having the victory pulled out from under him slide-- she really is very psyched about having a cat twin.

If the idea of Ren having a twin fills him with quiet horror, no one has to be the wiser.

"I guess that tracks," he allows, pretend-grudgingly. Really it's the unPrestidigitated cats who have won this day, spared by his contest-ending genius. He crosses his arms, wrinkles his nose at this 'prize.' "What are gold stars good for? Can I cash 'em in for help making a cake?"

[catpiper]

The exchange rate for gold stars is fluid and ever changing, but today, as she holds this RenCat against her cheek, she feels like there's a favorable outcome for him. Maybe that's where the real victory lies. It takes a second for her to decide the ultimate fate of gold star cashouts, looking spicy cat in the eye like it's giving her the answer she seeks. Good cat, she loves that one too. They're both so good.

"You can trade," She starts off, holding up her free hand to count down from one, two, three, four-" four of them. They're a treasure and I'll help you all day if you do."
