OPEN STARTER out anywhere in town @aurorabaystarter CLOSED

"Oh this? It's pretty self-explanatory, isn't it?" Finn grabs the bottom of his shirt and pulls down, stretching the image flat so it can be see free of wrinkles. The shirt he pulled from the t-shirt grab bag for the night out celebrating his birthday. "It's Danny Dorito. Impeccable design, if I do say so myself."

[fatalled]

— ROULETTE. WHEN: the grand opening of anderson laboratories. WHERE: the open bar. WHO: open to all.

How he got back here is a pretty easy guess — why he's staying back here is anyone's guess. ( a breather, a break. He's been dragged, it feels like, from here and back and all over again in the very few hours he's been here. Tonight has not gone to plan, to say the very least. ) A towel is slung over one shoulder, the white sleeves of his dress shirt were rolled up past the elbows with a few mysterious stains he isn't focused on. Tattoos spot across his forearms, a patchwork of styles and designs mingling with the scars & wounds from a life lived running. He's lost his tie somewhere between that here and there — sorry, Kenji, but you're probably not getting that back.

The mask remains, however. This is what separates him from the actual bartenders. An inaccurate skeletal dog head — wolf head? He asked for a dog but it looks more like a wolf? Is it the ears? — covers half his face. His shirt opened, the top few buttons having more or less ripped open to let in a little air, reveals the tattoo wrapped around his neck — a meticulous lines detailing the accurate muscular and skeletal anatomy of an opened throat. A map on where to dig your teeth in if you get lucky.

Hiroji is not feeling lucky tonight. He had a plan and then fourteen other fucking plans suddenly derailed his plan. It feels like the second he stepped foot in here, he's been running. He just needs a job. He just needs to do something. Everything can sort out itself out later. "Alright, what can I get you? I don't know what they have and I don't care but I can probably find it and make whatever you want."

where: the beach bash, the coast

when: august 24th, 2024

It may have been a bit counterintuitive to try beach combing when there were so many people around, but Aisha loved the challenge. She was hoping to find a few pretty shells, maybe a sand dollar if she was lucky. As she veered a bit closer to the water, looking down at the sand she nearly ran into a woman. "Sorry about that," she gave a bashful look and a smile as an apology. "I was trying to look for some seashells, but maybe this would work better with two people. Actually," she paused as if she considered her presence. "Care to join me?"

who: kennedy & @xsylcuenco

when: the holiday market

"How much frosting is too much?" Kennedy asked the person next to her, glancing at the cookie she'd decorated. She had a bit of a sweet tooth, so this had been one of the things she had been looking forward to. And bonus points didn't destroy her kitchen in the making, but she may have gone a bit overboard. "Because I'm not sure I could see the cookie anymore and that may be concerning."

WHO: Beck & @kennedyxwarren WHERE: Swimming beach WHEN: Saturday, August 26th, evening

"Shots are for winners," Beck said as he handed Ken a shot as he joined her by the bonfire, offering a celebratory five. Hours later, he was still on a winner's high. Then again, it was made so much sweeter having beat his sisters in the process. "Way to kick ass today, can we make a pact to always be on each other's teams?"

where: beach bash.

when: sometime during the bonfire (August 25th).

"I've secured the goods," Chloe announced, excitement oozing from her words. In one hand, Chloe held up a bag full of marshmallows, chocolate bars, and graham crackers. In the other, she quickly held up two matching metal rods to put their marshmallows on. Chloe settled down on the blanket-covered log next to the fire and reached out a hand to give the other one of the rods, along with a marshmallow. Chloe placed a marshmallow on the edge of the of her own rod, watching as it started to char once she put it over the flames. "How do you usually roast your marshmallows? I like mine extra toasty."

WHERE: The Garden

WHEN: March 17, 2024 (St. Patrick's Day)

"I know by the fact that I was born in Boston and my mom's got all this red hair and freckles that I'm Irish. Well, at least partially Irish," Ryder looked over the menu in front of him, "and yet I've never really eaten most of this food? What about you?" Glancing up, he looked over at Kennedy, one brow raised, almost playful smile tugging at the corner of his lips, "got any suggestions?"

Starter for: @xalecjacobs and Theo Location: Merrock Holiday Market Time: December 17(ish) 2023

Walking through the holiday market, Theo ran into so many familiar faces. Being able to catch up with friends, both old and new, was something he always enjoyed. Especially during the holidays when things got crazy and hectic, having some time off for some fun, food, and shopping, was just what he wanted. Plus the food at these holiday markets in Merrock was always top notch. After breaking away from Winnie and the kids who were so busy with shopping, Theo perused the different food booths, seeing what piqued his interest. Hopping on one of the lines, he saw Alec standing by. Wanting to make a little small talk, Theo struck up the conversation. "What's your favorite holiday time food?"

for @noelxbe

seojun can't help but mess with the blazer on the uniform he's wearing. it had been so long since he's wore a uniform and it almost feels unnatural. it's just for their web variety show so that eases his mind a bit. he hopes the fans who watch the episode will like the uniform at least. taking a breath, he finally joins the others but instantly goes toward noel.

"what do you think? i haven't wore a uniform in so long, it feel so off to me." he laughs a bit as he gives a soft smile to his friend. "you look great in yours though." he couldn't help let the compliment slip out as he kept his gaze on the other male. he was excited for the filming though and couldn't wait to see how it would all go as well as see the reaction from fans. he liked variety web shows from other idol groups so he could feel the excitement bubbling inside him.

(30) Buckshot Roulette

This game made me realize just how bad my luck is. Every time I tried relying on pure luck it always ended up screwing me over. Thank god the items exist because I wouldn’t have a chance at winning.

But besides my awful luck nearly getting me killed multiple times, I had a good time with this.

002.  EXTRA ORDINARY

[ NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCE ]

if hiroji could cast the blame on someone, it would be his father.

money just slipped through his fingers, real and tactile one minute and the next — gone. & hiroji inherited those fingers. he also inherited his love for gambling. the wheel spins and spins and spins and you could be fortune's favorite! you could win and be on top of the world. slippery fingers and gambling are two things that work very well together — if you're the house playing.

not if you're the guy who stacks debts up like cardboard boxes.

& you really don't think that much of it. you just need enough to cover the next bill, the next meal, the next whatever it is that's shadowing your doorsteps. just enough. no more, no more! and you'll pay it back, you're good for it! if you can play just one more game, you'll get all the money back. you're good for it!

until they catch you.

hiroji could find the patterns. he could identify the numbers, find the card and count it back. he was good at it. and then he got cocky.

and then he got caught.

that's how it happens. snowball effect. it works until it doesn't, until you're rolling down the hill unable to stop yourself and nowhere to go from here.

& of course, they wanted their money back. all of their money. their father borrowed to pay for his addictions and hiroji did the same. every time that paycheck hit his hands, he was at the slots, the tables, the houses. money turned into water in his hands. his brother kept a steady payment, working himself to the bone. they wanted something better. people always do.

they finally had enough. they wanted their money now. hiroji's excuses ran out. hiroji wasn't afraid of dying and they knew this — so they threatened to kill his brother. the both of them facing down the barrel of the gun and the only thing hiroji could think was ... if he could reach him, he could take that bullet for him.

if he could just — reach — him!

when the bullet hit the gas main, when the fire exploded, when that threat of losing his brother was almost a reality ... the world just winked out.

power…  he can jump anywhere that he can calculate in his mind. If he's been there and can see, there is no issue and short distances are the easiest with little to no strain. the longer the distance, the more strain on his body. if he cannot see the location but is aware of it, he has a chance of missing it such as jumping miles away and he will suffer migraines, fainting, nausea / vomiting, and, in extremely rare cases, aphasia. across seas / countries / into space is a no go.

he can take other people with him when he jumps if he is touching them but they will always suffer the consequences of migraines and sickness if they go with him. inanimate objects seem to do alright as far as he can tell.

drawbacks / vulnerabilities…  hiroji, when he jumps, leaves behind particles of himself that lock onto the location. he can relock onto those particles and jump there again. with every jump, he loses bits of himself. the more he jumps, the most he loses. over time, his body will simply stop existing and be scattered. at the moment, he is unaware that this is a consequence of his power.

(if applicable)  cerberus corp… 

his brother works for cerb but he is like suck my dick and bamfs out.

codename…  he picked it up along the way.

who: aisha & @jcksonfields

where: the garden

when: march 17th

Aisha had been near the bar, ordering a green beer, purely out of curiosity, and because she had a fear of missing out. It seemed like one of the highlights of the night she had to try. As she glanced from the bartender to the person who approached the bar, she gave a bright smile. "Why, hello stranger," she smiled, waving him over to where she stood. "Want to have a drink with me? Figured I'd get into the theme of the night and order a green beer if you want one as well."

where: winter holiday market

"Some kid spilled glitter on me at the ornament-making station, not sure if it was intentional or not." Kennedy recounted her experience to the person standing next to her, furrowing her brows as she tried to dust off her coat. Sadly, it seemed like she'd have to deal with it for the rest of the night, maybe even having to buy a new coat to be safe. With a slight huff, she glanced around as she tried to decide her safest route for what she'd do next. "So, besides shopping, anything you're looking forward to getting into? Hopefully sans-glitter."

[beck-hartman]

WHO: Beck & @cordeliaeli WHERE: Swimming Beach WHEN: Saturday, August 26th

Beck brought both his surfboard and paddle board because this was about doing everything possible in a one weekend timespan. Spotting Cordelia and her mini me splashing in the water, he paddled over. "Hey, Cordy," he greeted as he lowered himself down to sit on his board with his feet in the submerged sand, "think the mini would want to get on? Gotta start her early, right?"

[chloenwckobiaarchive]

who: CHLOE & JACE. @jaceeverett

where: beach bash (surfing).

when: sometime during the early afternoon (August 26th).

In all honesty, Chloe couldn't remember the last time she was on a surfboard. Was it in Costa Rica? Early summer? She didn't know, but what she did know was that she wanted to have some kind of fun in the water. And surfing sounded like it could fit the bill. Chloe waded more into the water and pushed her surfboard down below her feet to see if she could stand on it. Before she could get fully on top, the force of the action sent the board flying upwards through the water. It smacked her in the forehead and Chloe collapsed into the water, surfboard floating on the surface of the water without her yet remaining attached to her wrist. Chloe's head popped up out of the water as she splashed around in the less shallow side of the beach. "Pretend you didn't just see that," Chloe spoke aloud, head turning to the nearest person she saw. She slowly climbed on top of her board and sat on it, catching her breath. "...um, that was just a test run. To see if the board worked."
