JUNE EVENT: CHAOS, CHAOS!

Who: Anyone and everyone!
What: It's just a little chaos...

Who Keeps Spinning the World Around?

The morning of June 17th, you'll probably notice things are amiss rather quickly. Your hands aren't your hands, or you're no longer in a squishy human flesh shape, or worse. Maybe your Lawful Good persona has plummeted into an outright Chaotic Evil one. Or maybe you wake up with a brand new power in your hands! Whatever the case is, no explanation is going to be immediately forthcoming, from Eleu or the Storyteller or anyone else. You'll have to figure out this mess on your own. Adjust to your new circumstances, master your new powers, and do what you can to make it through the next few days...because they're going to be some very interesting ones, for certain.

Catch Me If You Can!

Come June 20th, whether you're back to normal selves or not, Eleu has a job for you. A request, even. They're going to need your help to take care of this little problem and put a stop to all this absolute madness.

Those interested in helping can get in touch with any of the honeybees buzzing anxiously about Io, and they will redirect you to the Honeycomb, which has now been provided with several barrels of Honeycomb Sledgehammers for your use. You don't have to take one if you don't need it, but they make a very powerful weapon. Additionally, Eleu will take care to assure that, in exchange for your help, you may keep the Sledgehammer, if you so choose. Those interested in assisting may access our boss fight at its top-level below. This is a single thread with no order, but anyone may participate, regardless of their current state of being. Don't worry about how you contribute, or tag speed. Anyone who's concerned about being left out is welcome to reach out to us to handwave or backtag their involvement, if necessary!

The Clown Box is going to put up a fight, though. And it's not going to be pretty.

[Well then this is just all kinds of fuck up, huh? It takes her a second to realize- are her eyes playing tricks on her, is that not Erika-- before she realizes how she phrased her question. Really, she should leave if it's not her friend, but curiosity killed the cat and for all she knows this is Mollymauk about to give her total shit.]

Oh, shit, uh--

[Well here she is jogging over anyway. It's kind of a weird motion- her limbs are just a little out like she's taking a lot of care not to touch herself as she goes. Beau is pretty used to her regular limbs, but these scrape when they make contact and the noise is just killer.]

Okay, so it isn't just me, uh-- who are you?

[Good job not introducing herself, too.]

[assoverelbow]

[That might be the most awkward run he's ever seen.

He bobs his head, which just gets hair in his face, and he takes a moment to push back the mass of curls.]

Genji. I'm not sure if we've met before, when we were ourselves?

[It's not like he can recognize her voice, when it's so different from what it usually is right now.]

[lesbeau]

[It's not great, yeah. She's kind of a mess. This is just making it more visible.]

Uhh, I got nothing. You just look like Erika, uh, or what Erika usually looks like. Damn, I dunno where she is now then.

[If he knew her well (or the original owner of the body), he might catch that the voice is off somehow. Not just a different pattern, but the flat sort of tone that categorizes Beau's speech. But they don't know each other well enough for that. Still, at least she'll introduce herself back.]

I'm Beau. Not really this, uh, I'm not usually a suit I mean.

[assoverelbow]

I wouldn't know. Hopefully somewhere safe, for as much as that's possible.

[He makes an amused sound, though he nods. She sounds different from the man he had met, at the very least, and there's something familiar about the cadence, but it's not something he can place.]

And I am not usually a woman. Or this...human.

[lesbeau]

Oh, shit. Are you usually a robot or something? That sounds rough.

[She says, as if she isn't experiencing a very similar thing right now. The lack of sensation on her everything is freaky in a way Beau isn't sure how to describe, and is therefore choosing to ignore.]

How are you handling it?

[assoverelbow]

Something like that.

["Something like that". Because that's a fucking answer.]

I'm handling it as well as I can. It just takes some getting used to.

[lesbeau]

[It absolutely isn't, and even without facial expressions, Genji can probably feel the 'really, dude' gaze she's giving him from inside that helmet.]

I mean, yeah, guess I'm in the same boat. Not usually this, uh... metal? Whatever this is.

[She isn't familiar enough with space alloys to be able to say what this suit is made of. She knows it exists in space and not much else.]

So what's your name? Usually, I mean.
