[A thick mist descends, obscuring everything but a small area around you and your teammates. There's a sudden feeling of distance . . . and you find yourselves in a new patch of garden. Grass is thick and springy underfoot, but more noticeable is the picnic blanket, the picnic baskets filled with building supplies, and the toothpick skeleton of a large castle. Perched atop of it, waving merrily in the breeze, is a flag of your team's color and animal.]

You have 100 points to spend on parts. Choose wisely.

[Each picnic basket has a label tacked to the handle, indicating what each item costs.]

[In addition to the labelled supplies, there are many more that come without a cost. Paints, squishy blocks that can be moulded as you please, finger foods, anything you'd find at a tea party, bits pieces of clocks (as well as whole ones), mouldable sheets of highly reflective glass, and a few rolls of fabric . . . You instinctively know that they'll add nothing to your offence or defence, but they're there to use as you see fit.]

[ The castle itself has been reinforced in spots that Schooler felt were weak. Where each tooth pick meets is not only a bit of jelly from a fruit-filled tart meant to keep the points closer together, but scraps of fabric have been tied into a thick knot to secure it better. The dimensions of each block are 2 inches in height, 4 inches in width, and an inch of depth to support it. What's important to note is in-between the blocks and toothpicks are not only a sheet of the reflective glass, but a thick layer of fabric wrapped around it on both sides. The blocks have had a diamond design drawn into them and every so often there's a diamond shaped piece of glass in the design. Last, but not least, the bottom of the castle all around has pie-shaped scones with the thick base of it against the walls while the thinner part of the scone is facing outward. An attempt at being aesthetically pleasing to the eye was made, but the focus is more on defense than looks.

Even if she's not the type to attack others usually, Team Cute Detective Girls Plus One Guy understand now that their castle will likely be assaulted so the exterior has been designed to defend against that.

Additionally, they'll put forth the points in the following:

➥20 points: Teacup Walls
➥20 points: Teapot guards
➥20 points: Cuckoo catapult
➥20 points: Cuckoo catapult
➥20 points: Rose arrows

... Let's be real, Schooler used tea-related things because she's a classy lady. ]
