Day 1: Evening

Evening: 5:00pm - Midnight

[ IRL Timeframe: March 11th - March 18th, 2019 ]

The first day has come to a close, the only things left to do are get some food and get some rest. Fortunately the residents of Bamborough are hosting a party to congratulate the heroes on their first victory, unfortunately it's running for several hours this evening. There's only so much time for sleep. What kind of balance will your hero try to strike?

Unfortunately for everyone, the evil-allured knights will be treated to a rude wake-up surprise when they finally go to sleep. No matter when they finally set their head down to rest, they all wake up at the same time, in the same place. Only the evil-allured knights will have access to this post, click to see if you've been chosen.

The good-allured knights, meanwhile, are free of a visit tonight with the Princess and the Protector. The two of them, however, are due to have a chat. Questions have to be answered, after all! He's dressed in his usual attire:
He's the same height as Luka with dark skin and vivid blue eyes that match the color of the sky. He has wicked winged white eyeliner to accent his eyes and curly black hair with white tips piled on top of his head, it's a wonder how it stays up there. Surprisingly, or unsurprisingly, he's wearing a pajama robe that looks either blue or silver depending how it's touched or how it moves. Most importantly is that he's got brass knuckles on both his hands, like he's ready to fight. But he's not here to fight, he's here to give a whisper about what comes next.


First Night Event: Bamborough: Everyone invited.


The Weather

  • Starry Night.
  • 64°F / 18°C
  • Quite breezy, all the trees are rustling.


Prompts:

  • Bamborough Party: To celebrate the defeat of the first monster, a full banquet is being held near the beach in Bamborough. Unlimited food, unlimited drinks, and most importantly of all was a small stockpile of blankets, sheets, pillows, and toiletries to offer any knight who might've forgotten something on the way out here. Naturally, every item is sponsored.

  • You're all over Social Media!: Videos were successfully taken of all twelve knights and the princess during the first battle, and now the world is abuzz about what happened! What are they saying about your hero? How did they even get this footage? Or worst of all, how bad are they dissing your camera skills for those that recorded themselves?

  • A late night walk: The first day is over, the first monster is dead. How's your character holding up? Do they seek out support from a fellow hero? Do they spend it alone? What kind of night are they having now that it's all real?

  • A late night meal: Anyone leaving the Bamborough party late enough will be able to spot that a local late night ramen shop is open for business. If your hero hasn't quite eaten enough, they can drop by for a bite. But be warned, a certain sleepy villain is getting a bite to eat herself. Care to share a ramen bar meal with the enemy?

A few drinks later, during a lull in the celebrations, Terrence is glaring at his phone with a free hand dramatically dragging down his face. Still jacketless, the rabbit knight seems to have found his tie at least - it's now wrapped around one of his ears.

"Daaaamn... Don't look even kinda' cool here..." he mutters quietly to himself, pausing a reupload of Garrot's recording from earlier in the day. He then makes the worst decision possible by scrolling down to the comments. "'WaS tHiS fImLeD bY a MoNkEy?!' It in fact was, you philistine XxXYeetusSkeetusXxX, which should be obvious to anyone affording attention... Learn your knights!"

The lull in the celebrations has allowed Zafika to wander around, listening closely in hopes of hearing the other Knights, and lo and behold, they hear Terrence's muttering, and peek in his direction from beneath their blindfold. Ah, the rabbit Knight, perfect.

They make their way over to him, and take a seat in the chair next to his, honestly bit amused by his grumblings. "Hello, you're Terrence, right? The rabbit knight?" They want to make sure just in case, as they offer their hand for him to shake. "Zafika, the snake Knight."

[personal profile] fop_lop 2019-03-13 11:31 am (UTC)(link)
"Ah, y-yes! Our host's sick sense of humor is still intact, as you can see," he indicates while wiggling those rabbit-like ears. This causes the tie to droop down and dangle before his eyes for a moment, slightly distracting the fellow before his attention returns to Zafika. Terrence takes the offered handshake.

"Ahem. Terrence Torrence, yes. I'm pleased since we hadn't the opportunity to engage at the other earlier occasions, and you didn't exactly have much of an interview either." Terrence quickly stows the phone in his pocket, giving the other knight his full (inebriated) attention. "I hear you were one of the ones to give the final blows to our foe, correct?"
zafika: (Default)

[personal profile] zafika 2019-03-13 11:50 am (UTC)(link)
Well, Zafika can't exactly see what Terrence means, but, they make the assumption that he means his own rabbit ears. Really, this year had many Knights that resembled their zodiac animal, they have to wonder if it was on purpose.

"Ah, right, I'm sorry, I didn't have time to talk to everyone, trying to meet with as many Knights as possible takes, quite a bit of time, apparently." Not to mention that they had only shown up to the two welcome parties anyway. At Terrence mentioning they were one of the Knights delivering the final blows to the monster, they shift a little in their seat, their tail curling around their leg. "Well, I guess you can put it like that. I don't know if my attack did much, honestly, since Gail stomping on the monster was what killed it."
fop_lop: (Default)

[personal profile] fop_lop 2019-03-13 12:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, right. Blindfold. Terrence nods to himself sheepishly.

"Not your fault! A speedy introduction is scarcely an introduction at all, I say. Not to mention a very rude villain cut our visitations short!" He actually sounds... More offended than anything at that, like the Wizard had interrupted tea by asking him to fill out some paperwork rather than kicking off a threat to reality itself.

"At any rate... Zafika, you said? Snake knight? Marvelous. And what work did you do before walking into the world-saving business..?"
zafika: (Default)

[personal profile] zafika 2019-03-13 12:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Zafika raises a brow beneath their blindfold with how offended Terrence sounds about the Wizard cutting the parties short, but, they don't point that out. "I think at least getting to meet the other Knights is better than nothing, considering we have to work together."

Terrence asking what work they did before this makes them go quiet for a bit, as they consider their options. They can either be blunt about this again, or be a bit roundabout. Actually, no, screw being roundabout. They lean more comfortably in their chair as they shrug, but their tail is curling tighter around their leg. "Assassination. Pretty ironic that I'm a Knight now and supposed to save the world, right?"
fop_lop: (Default)

[personal profile] fop_lop 2019-03-13 01:27 pm (UTC)(link)
The blunt reply causes Terrence to remain silent for a moment as well. Is there any reason an assassin might be after him specifically?

...Naaaaaah.

"It certainly makes you quite a bit more qualified than most of our cohorts, myself included. Most of my profession is performed from behind a podium or desk... I'm hardly what you'd call combat-capable!" Even after a few drinks, Terrence can read body language and decides not to press this topic further.

"Are you getting acclimated to the island already? I'm finding the accommodations rather agreeable, actually. Quaint, yet comfy!" The seaside cabin was a far cry from his usual posh living situation, but it definitely had its own little charm.
zafika: (Default)

[personal profile] zafika 2019-03-13 02:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Terrence is right, this assassin at least isn't after him, nor any of the other Knights. Still Zafika is bit surprised by how he takes the news in stride, but they put that on the alcohol. "Hmm.. I guess I am. Hopefully I'll be of more use with the other monsters."

The change of topic is welcome, their tail now comfortable wrapped around their leg, the tip flicking lazily every now and then. "The change in my surroundings is, welcome, definitely. It's generous for them to let us stay here without asking for anything in return. I'm just glad I got put in a more quieter area on the island."

[personal profile] fop_lop 2019-03-16 09:06 am (UTC)(link)
"Oh yes?" Terrence asks, resting his chin on one hand and leaning in slightly. "I was placed in a particularly pretty little seaside shack. It's not exactly isolated, bu-..." A memory cuts the rabbit knight off as he sits back up suddenly! "Did the, ah, 'welcome committee' locate you this morning?" Terrence certainly welcomed them, but it occurs to him that most people wouldn't that early... Especially those who value privacy a tad more.

When Rory’s gaze hits Terrence, two things immediately pop up in her mind. One: hey, it’s Bunny from earlier! And two: he’s definitely drunk. Rory isn’t one for alcohol, but she knows a drunk person when she sees one. It doesn’t deter her from approaching him, though; the last time he saw her, she was face down in the dirt, and that wouldn’t do. She wanted to make a better impression sooner rather than later, even though her current state still isn’t ideal.

At least he has a tie around his ear, so maybe he has no right to judge. Or is it a bold fashion choice? No time to think about it, she’s going in.

“Hi! I’m Rory, from earlier. What are you watching?”
fop_lop: (Default)

[personal profile] fop_lop 2019-03-13 11:53 am (UTC)(link)
The sudden greeting causes Terrence to jump a bit, though more out of surprise than anything. Oh, hey, this one again. Well, she doesn't really look the greatest in this video either, so maybe she can commiserate..?

"Just reliving our rip-roaring chase from earlier via recording... Garrot's animal friend was filming the fracas if you weren't aware." Terrence scrolls back up to the video and restarts it, turning his phone slightly so the screen is visible to both of them. "Not exactly elite, are we?"
roaryrory: (Default)

[personal profile] roaryrory 2019-03-13 12:07 pm (UTC)(link)
While curious, Rory had admittedly also been dreading actually seeing any footage of herself during the fight. There was something mortifying about seeing yourself from another point of view, especially in a high adrenaline situation like that. She wasn't sure how the already-celebrity types dealt with it.

But Seth had told her she was cool, right? So maybe it won't be that bad? Unfortunately... no, its not flattering. She's already suffering when the camera turns to catch her sticking her tongue out while throwing her spear, and then the fall.......

She buries her face in her hands. "Auuugh! I was hoping I looked way cooler than that!"
fop_lop: (Default)

[personal profile] fop_lop 2019-03-13 12:30 pm (UTC)(link)
"Right..?" he agrees, extending a free hand to pat Rory on the shoulder comfortingly. "If it's any consolation, I certainly don't come across any cooler... I appear as a damsel in distress! A deviant one, at that, feeling up my daring rescuer..! At least I did better earlier today..." Terrence's impromptu underwear modeling photoshoot from this morning was, indeed, doing rather well online. There are already Ask Blogs of a raunchy AU version of him and everything.

"Yet we did win, and no one was hurt!" he says to the one (1) person who was hurt. "...Badly."
roaryrory: (Default)

[personal profile] roaryrory 2019-03-13 01:06 pm (UTC)(link)
"Hey, you helped! Your power seems real useful!" Rory says to offer consolation of her own. She's peeking through her fingers at the video, handling it much better now that she's no longer on the screen herself.

As far as she was concerned, she wasn't hurt, it was... just a setback. An embarrassing setback. "That's what I've been telling myself, that defeating the monster was the important thing here... I kinda wished I'd been there to kill it, though."
fop_lop: (Default)

[personal profile] fop_lop 2019-03-13 01:48 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yes, well... I suppose I did assist in some way..." he admits, pausing the video and shifting slightly. It's not like Terrence needed the consolation and he's certainly used to compliments, but Rory seems so genuine it throws him off for a second.

"Ah, did you see how it ended? I'm not exactly envious of everyone in the 'splash zone'!"
roaryrory: (Default)

[personal profile] roaryrory 2019-03-13 02:26 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oh, I didn't! This was the first I saw any footage," she admits, finally lowering her hands from her face. Which is red. "I overheard Gail did it, though? Someone on the way here was loudly calling him a 'badass'. I'm proud of him!"

She fiddles with her braid. "Is there a video of the end battle? And what do you mean by splash zone?"
fop_lop: (Default)

[personal profile] fop_lop 2019-03-16 09:22 am (UTC)(link)
"Ooh, yes! Quite a finale, really! Certainly didn't suspect such an easily spooked fellow of finishing it. Ah, here... You'll see," he offers, bringing up a different video and holding the phone at an angle again. The two of them are nearly the same height, which is rather convenient at the moment.

Thankfully Terrence has put together a playlist of HD, unedited clips of the entire encounter, so he's able to locate one without MLG airhorns or Deal With It shades.

"Thankfully I arrived after that..."

Haizea is done drinking for the night, she’s pretty much on the edge of tipsy vs. drunk. At some point, she’d tied her own jacket around her waist, and as she unties it to put it back on, she realizes something is wrong.

“Waaaaaaaait a second, this isn’t mine!” She holds the strange jacket up and it’s very clear that it’s a 1) a suit jacket and 2) much too long for her. “How the fuck..... whose is this!” At that last bit, she’d jumped on a chair and called out across the party, waving the jacket above her head.

How did Haizea end up with Terrence’s jacket? The mysteries of drunk partygoers never cease.
fop_lop: (Default)

[personal profile] fop_lop 2019-03-16 09:58 am (UTC)(link)
Shouting is a good way to get anyone's attention, but especially Terrence's since loud people are usually interesting people. He slips his phone back into his pocket and sits up, spotting Haizea with... His jacket? Honestly, it's only right now that he even notices it's missing.

"H-Hey, that jacket is expensive! You already fleeced me once this morning," Terrence complains, jogging over to Haizea's perch. "I mean, I am essentially made of money, but still..."
tropicalstorm: of haizea (Default)

[personal profile] tropicalstorm 2019-03-16 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
“Hehhhh, this jacket is yours?” Haizea says, leaning dangerously over the back of the chair. They’re almost eye level with her leaning like this.

“Maybe I oughta keep it as a trophy, then...?” She’s decided to tease him a little, but she does intend to give it back. Eventually.
fop_lop: (Default)

[personal profile] fop_lop 2019-03-19 12:00 pm (UTC)(link)
For a moment he considers warning Haizea about the precariousness of her position but decides against it - she's tough, and it'd be funny if she fell.

"The only other one here that dresses that well is Mr. Murtakhor," he huffs, "and it doesn't look like you're twirling a tent around, so it must be mine!" Terrence folds his arms and gives her A Look. He can guess what she's doing, and he's not going to give in quite that easily. "I could get you your own if you'd like. Tailored for you specifically, even."
tropicalstorm: of haizea (Default)

[personal profile] tropicalstorm 2019-03-19 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
"I could get me my own if I wanted," she says blithely, and lifts a hand off the back the back of the now tottering chair.

"But I got yours right now! Sure it doesn't fit me, but maybe I could start some kinda new fashion trend..." and she throws the jacket over her shoulder dramatically and poses like she's in a catalog.
fop_lop: (Default)

[personal profile] fop_lop 2019-03-22 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
Honestly, between Haizea's general 'street tough' look and a black jacket not being worn properly, she looks kind of like a Japanese (or whatever this world's equivalent is) delinquent. Terrence's alcohol-addled mind muses over how fitting that seems for a moment and he can't stifle the laughter it provokes.

"I don't think you'll be selling a new line any time soon, but I do appreciate the look. In fact, you're welcome to wear any of my other outfits if you care!"
tropicalstorm: of haizea (Default)

[personal profile] tropicalstorm 2019-03-22 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
Haizea raises an eyebrow at that! At first Terrence had her interest but now he’s got her attention.

“Yeah? What kinda outfits you got? More business formal or anything more excitin’?” That jacket is gonna stay right where it is on her shoulder unless Terrence does something about it.
fop_lop: (Default)

[personal profile] fop_lop 2019-04-23 09:27 am (UTC)(link)
Even sober Terrence would doubt his ability to out-speed Haizea, but especially not right now. Her footing is a bit compromised at the moment, though...

"I do have a sizeable selection of suits, yes, but I can be rather fashionable in my free time! I own plenty of other 'exciting' things as well, but... Those are still secret for the time being..." he teases, tone implying that 'time being' could be very much temporary.
