DDD: Party for no discernible reason other than the White Text Guy having said so.



Whether you were invited, came of your own volition, were dragged here by some weirdos in green, or just popped up in the classic "community made you do it" fashion, you are now in THE FELT MANSION. And since Doc Scratch is and will always be an excellent host, you can count on having good food, drinks, and party games aplenty.

There isn't much he can do about the TIME SHENANIGANS, though. But you can steer clear of those if you know how. Unfortunately, there is no way to avoid the mansion's collection of A THOUSAND CLOCKS.

(Speaking of time shenanigans, you may also want to refer here for a rough explanation of what those shenanigans might be. But don't worry about it too much, really. You can just say something if you want to run into a Felt NPC and, hopefully, the shenanigans will be immensely fun for all.)

You should also feel free to START ANY NEW THREADS.

GAME ROOM

[docfoul]

[There is quite a selection here! In fact, you have a feeling that, if there is anything you would like to play that isn't immediately visible, you need only speak up and Scratch will provide the means for you to do so.

Or, in other words, if you think of a cool game, go ahead and start a thread for it.]

CUE SPORTS

[docfoul]

[Man, there are like three billiards tables here. Also, Scratch might be sitting on one. LET HIM TELL YOU ABOUT BILLIARDS...]

[deathfangirl]

[Aradia's been poking around all over, curious about this green place. She doesn't look as wary as she feels, trotting from place to place, examining the clocks with great interest, and sampling a few scottie dogs she found in a bowl somewhere.

She finds her host sitting on a billiard table and cocks her head at him curiously]

Are you supposed to be sitting there?

[docfoul]

I see no harm in doing so, as long as nobody is playing.

[deathfangirl]

No, not at all. [With a small flutter of her wings, she hops up beside him] Do you have anything to say to me?

[docfoul]

Not particularly. Ordinarily, we would have never gotten the chance to speak with each other again.

[deathfangirl]

Yes, ordinarily. So why did you have the party?

[docfoul]

It may amuse you to know that I did not plan this party at all.

[deathfangirl]

That IS amusing. So this isn't a party so much as an invasion?

CARD GAMES

[docfoul]

[Poker? Blackjack? Your own creative spin on Yu-Gi-Oh using a traditional deck of cards? Have at it - and some of the Felt might even join in!

They cheat. A lot.]

[createswithink]

[....What. is. Yu-Gi-Oh?

Nah, he's simply looking at the cards. The most complicated table game he knows is mahjong (although he's a shoddy player), so these card games can't be that difficult, can they?]

[vendetta_itinerary]

[Oh, hey, suddenly, this little guy shows up! He says he can teach you how to play... as long as you solve one of his riddles.]

[createswithink]

You have to play a game to play a game?

[Laaaame. So Issun's going to simply...start stacking the cards into a pyramid now.]

[vendetta_itinerary]

[... No riddle then?]

[createswithink]

[Shhhh-- it's busy building something here. If you want to help him you can.]

[vendetta_itinerary]

[Can he help? He has some excellent luck to offer, you know. He can help.]

[createswithink]

[Wait!! This is an artist at work! You must not disturb him! After a minute or two he looks over his shoulder at...whatever it is that's keeping him company.]

Okay...as long as you don't destroy it. [oh, he's so trusting of others]

PIN THE TAIL???

[docfoul]

[There is, apparently, an open game of the classic party hit "Pin the Tail on the Donkey" here.

Except the tail is already there.

What the heck?]

[grimdarkseer]

[Rose regards this and can't help but pass comment]

Cute. Are we supposed to play or merely admire the artwork?

[vendetta_itinerary]

[Who knows?

SUDDENLY THE TAIL IS STICKING TO YOUR NOSE. How did that happen?]

[grimdarkseer]

[It's probably just as well she doesn't know if the scowl is any indication. She's still going to go ahead and blame Scratch, though, since it's his mansion]

Sheer whimsy or should I be taking this as a slur on my character or at the very least my appearance?

[vendetta_itinerary]

[Whoever's doing this is having fun: the tail just keeps moving to all sorts of places, like the top of Rose's head and her back.]

[grimdarkseer]

[This leads Rose to think that the BEST PLAN EVER is to grab hold of the tail so that whoever is having so much fun pinning the tail on the Rose is going to have to fight to move it again.

At least, in theory]

[vendetta_itinerary]

[The plan is a fantastic success. Itchy has now stopped zooming around and is instead fighting for the possession of that tail!]

[grimdarkseer]

[Rose isn't about to yield so easily]

And who might you be, my flash-stepping green adversary?

[She's heard all about Bro. Movement faster than the eye is old news]
