[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.]

[Walls:
- Tea cosy walls (10 points)
- Teacup walls (20 points)
- Mirror walls (30 points)

Guards:
- Scone guards (10 points)
- Teapot guards (20 points)
- Clockwork guards (30 points)

Moats:
- Empty moat (10 points)
- Moat with mirror shards (20 points)
- Moat with hot tea (30 points)

Offense:

Catapults
- Crumpet catapult (10 points)
- Cuckoo catapult (20 points)
- Clock catapult (30 points)

Arrows
- Ladyfinger arrows (10 points)
- Rose arrows (20 points)
- Mirror shard arrows (30 points)

Spears
- Sunflower spears (10 points)
- Cocktail umbrella spears (20 points)
- Wine glass spears (30 points)]

[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.]

. . . Interimssion?

My. . . how dreadfully boring. Let's make things a bit more interesting, shall we my dears? I'll give you the opportunity to steal one item of offense or defense from another team to boost your own. Of course, you could just steal nothing, but that wouldn't be any fun, would it?

[Once you've decided on a course of action, reply with OFFENSE or DEFENSE and the team name (if you decide to steal), or PASS if you decide not to]

[gandere]

Boring? What, is the only entertainment you get from watching us cut ourselves up? Maybe I should take a broken saucer and carve a 'I suck' right into your forehead to spruce things up?

[ She doesn't take kindly to being called boring OKAY. ]

I'll steal an offense item from Barghest.

[soulping]

That's more like it, my dears. ♥

[Poof! Some cuckoo catapults appear on the walls of your castle! You have gained +2 offense]

[. . . but at the same time, the rose arrows you bought disappear from your castle with a similar poof! You have lost -2 offense]

[gandere]

[ WHY DID THEY HAVE TO TAKE THE PRETTIEST ACCESSORY. ]

[soulping]

[. . . oh no! In another poof, the teacup walls of your castle disappear :( you have lost -2 defense]

[gandere]

[ OH COME ON. ]

Sure, they're all trying to pick on me now.
