EPONA

[soulping]

[There’s room for seven in this weather-worn hut, with seven chairs around a table long enough for seven people.

The center of the table is adorned with wooden jugs of water and wooden snack bowls. It’s primarily fruits and nuts, although there are a couple brimming with Unidentified Raw Meat.]

QUESTIONS

[toomuchyakking]

[You've got questions? She's got answers. Your local unhelpful echo can be found napping on a tree outside.]

TASK ONE (5pm - 7pm)

[toomuchyakking]

☆ Task one is the objective portion! Each individual character has two hours to complete the tasks on this list!

☆ Everyone has their own list, so you’ll all be submitting separately. Do as many as you can, and turn in your task list here before 7:10 pm. You get 10 extra minutes to submit after this round has ended! Make sure to link and [x] mark those tasks you fully completed.

☆ I’m freezing the comments at 7:10pm, so though you can continue back-threading to your heart’s content, none of it will count for winning!

☆ Oh, and lying won’t work ♥ The echo has magically prevented you from lying.

☆ If you are the only person representing your team, you instead will have to make a heartfelt speech about what you hope you’ll remember, what you don’t want to remember, and what sort of person you hope you are and submit it to turn in here before before 7:10 pm. You get 10 extra minutes to submit after this round has ended!

☆ I’m freezing the comments at 7:10pm, so though you can continue back-threading to your heart’s content, none of it will count for winning!

☆ Don’t get too distracted, because task two begins at 7pm, and you need to keep an eye out for the next task comment on your team post!

[gandere]

This is all?

[ Doesn't seem that difficult. ]

TASK TWO (7pm -9pm)

[toomuchyakking]

♥ You have ten minutes to finish submitting your first task list! Go! And when you’re done…

♥ Task two will be a semi-subjective design portion. As a team, you have two hours to write a smack-talking rap boasting about your own team, and disparaging the opposing team, their mothers, etc.

♥ The teams who will be rapping off:
Ratatoskr versus Amalthea
Epona versus Takshaka
Tiamat versus Barghest
Dawon versus Ometotchtli

♥ Points will be given based on your rap’s complexity! That means you get points for:
- Rhyming
- Length
- Strength of insult
- General hilarity

♥ You get extra points for every team task in the first half you can work into your rap! Your hotness ratings, team mottos, the gossip, the secrets, etc. all count for bonus points if used. O snap. If you solo’d it, you get extra points for doing the tasks in your rap.

♥ Before 9:10 pm, someone from your team has to perform the team rap in public here. Make sure to do it before 9:10pm! That’s the hard limit.

♥ You can view, listen and heckle all raps from the other teams as well as your opposing team.

♥ The game ends at 9:10pm sharp, and scoring will begin at 9:10pm. If you don’t have both tasks completed and submitted by 9:10 pm, it’ll be scored on what you have done!

[gandere]

... What's a rap?

[ I'M TOO WHITE. ]

[toomuchyakking]

...A type... Of angry poetry.

[gandere]

Oh.

[ She's totally got this. ] So I just have to write an angry poem about Takshaka!

[acemedium]

[Coughing as she comes in, her voice is already scratchy]

You know! Slick rhymes, phat beats.... with a ph! Epona-style!

[wingtamer]

... Uhmmmm.....

[gandere]

[ You are so white it hurts, Maya. ]

Are we going to have to sing it?

[toomuchyakking]

...Talk...

In rhyme.

With rhythm.

[gandere]

[ You guys didn't see that embarrassing speech did you? ]

Hi.

[gandere]

Fine. I get it.

[ Looking towards her teammate. ] Eveningstar, you'll have to sit out with that voice of yours. You can help out, but I can't have you scaring off the other teams by sounding raspy.

[acemedium]

...I'll think of some lyrics..... Maybe I can cough a beat.

[gandere]

A beat?

[acemedium]

You do rap to a beat! It's like music, except you talk slick instead of sing.

[Cough cough]

[wingtamer]

Hi. Sorry I'm late—.. do you know how to, er, rap?

[gandere]

Well I'm the angriest person here so I'll have to be the one to do all the talking. [ #LOGIC. ]

[gandere]

No, but if it's angry poetry, it shouldn't be that difficult for us to do.

We just need to come up with the words and then I can easily do it.

[wingtamer]

.. if you say so! What are these tasks, by the way..?

1/2

[acemedium]

If anyone could smack-talk them a smack-down it's you!

[gandere]

We need to come up with an angry poem making fun of Takshaka.

... so the easiest person to target would be White Swan.

[acemedium]

Okay, for starts how about...

[THIS IS GONNA BE TERRIBLE AND SHE'S GONNA COUGH ALL THE WAY THROUGH...]

Yo, yo, yo, everyone hold onto your butts
'Cuz with Epona it's about to get nuts
We against the team based on a snake
'Cept all dem softies wanna do is bake

[gandere]

Is there a reason you're not using proper grammar?

[acemedium]

That's what rap is all about! Dissing with bad grammar!

[gandere]

Can't we just diss them while talking properly?

[wingtamer]

...But we—we're supposed to talk about ourselves too, aren't we?

[gandere]

We'll just emphasize how much better we are than him.

[gandere]

All right, we should give it a practice.

Eveningstar, you said you were going to cough a beat? You may as well start practicing that as well.

[wingtamer]

... Okay.

[acemedium]

[COUGH, COUGH, COUGH, DOES THIS HAVE ANY RHYTHM...]

[acemedium]

That's totally against the spirit of rap!

[gandere]

Um, try coughing a little harder.

[gandere]

So we have to be mean about it?

I can only think of one person I can be rude towards.
