Pomegranates
Who: Zero, Ichiru and OPEN
What: Pomegranates seeds are your free tickets to the Underworld!
When: All of June
Where: Near Shore, Hades Temple
Warnings: Ceberus is a curious puppy with three chompers.
Hades pomegranates seem to have a will of their own and purposely jump ship whenever he isn't looking. You may have found a stray pomegranate either by the beach, near the forest, or even better had the the courage to pick them off the two trees flanking the entrance to Hades Temple. Either way, the fruit seems to be in good shape and the seeds inside are pristine and look rather delicious. Picking up the fruit won't have any negative effects, but if you decide to eat theam... well then. You're in for a treat. You get a free night in the Underworld, free of charge! Your hosts will be the Kiryuu twins and their dog. You will be compelled to enter Hades Temple and stay the night. Only then will the compulsion leave you.
i. The Trees
One of the twins is on his way out of Hades Temple when he see's someone near the pomegranate trees and immediately goes to investigate.
"What are you doing?"
ii. Cerberus
The three-headed Hound of Hell is Hades first defense against intruders and will alert him to any and all visitors. Better hope Hades or Ichiru gets to you before Cerberus decides he wants to play. Be nice, he's still a pup the twins have a soft spot for him.
iii. Dinner Time
After Zero figures out what's happened - and after an extensive lecture about eating things off the ground or stealing fruits - Zero finally settles down and gets to work making dinner while Cerberus settles down watches in the background. You may explore your room for the night one of the twins pointed out earlier, but be aware Cerberus won’t like that and will be following you all the way. Conversely, you may decided it's better to stay by Hades side who doesn't seem to understand that a 10 ft three-headed dog made from silver rose vines is not in any way a goddamn puppy! You can help him or settle down on the dining room table.
iv. Night Explorations
Having trouble sleeping? Feel free to go exploring or try your chances at an escape. Who knows maybe the curse has worn off! Either way, Cerberus is a light sleeper and he has your scent. Hades won't be far behind once he finds out his favorite puppy is gone, and Ichiru tends to wander the hallways at night, so better hope you run across one of them before the Hellhound.
v. Wildcard
Open to any shenanigans you'd like to try so feel free to put up your own starter!
[ OOC: Characters are free to make up any symptoms for the "compulsion" to stay. For example: They can get the sudden urge to visit Hades Temple, or their feet will magically take them their without their consent. Or they might just start feeling pain the longer they ignore the compulsion. How many nights they stay is up to you! Eating three seeds can mean one night or three nights, whatever you want! ]

i hope this is ok? :> if not let me know
[ Somehow it became a thing and hello, Zero and Barry. He just came out of nowhere to bug the both of you. Don't mind him too much. ]
I suppose the important question is-- how many did you eat?
no subject
[ Oh, no. Please don't let it be - ]
What kind of fruit?
[ Zero turns to look at Ichiru, his eyes narrowing slightly. Did you sit and watch another shinki eat the fruit again?! ]
no subject
[Yup. It's exactly what he thought.]
There was just the one, though.
no subject
I suppose he'll be in much better than our guest that ate -- ten was it?
[ He chuckled and no this time he didn't catch anyone eating anything. He just showed up when Zero found the Shinki. ]
no subject
Why does this keep happening?He runs a hand down his face at that answer. ]That wasn't just any pomegranate.
[ At least Ichiru will have someone else to bother than just him. ]
no subject
[Barry sighs, looking around.]
So... what is this place, anyway? And how long am I stuck here?
no subject
Hades Temple-- The Underworld-- I suppose whichever term suits your fancy. You're basically talking to none other than Hades himself.
[ He casually gestures to Zero. Of course, that is one new person for him to mess around with-- but Zero seemed more fun to poke at sometimes. ]
I haven't actually calculated that since the incidents started happening recently. Perhaps, you have an answer for him, Zero?
no subject
The pomegranates. They're not regular fruit.
[ He pulls out a small silver case from his jacket and slips off the top with his thumb showing him the pomegranates seeds inside. ]
They're medication from my world. [ He looks at him. ] They're not supposed to be eaten by anyone else. The temple... [ he's quiet for a moment unsure how to explain the last ]
It's punishing those who eat them.
no subject
[He knew this guy looked familiar. He's the one who attacked Sheryl and Hiyoko before. Barry's gaze goes a bit steely, but he doesn't make any aggressive moves.]
So those're your anti-vampire pills, then?
[Blunt as ever, Barry.]
no subject
Not that he really wanted to get along with them but he didn't outright attack them either. ]
Indeed. Have you heard of such a name before?
[ He tilts his head curiously. Anti-vampire pills. Ichiru kept the smile on his face but he certainly didn't want to continue laughing at the statement Barry made. It was a rather interesting way of putting it. ]
