004 | Too Much Chocolate

Who: Everyone!
What: Passing out chocolates
When: All day March 15, 2016
Where: Throughout Japan
Summary: There is so much leftover chocolate from White Day that the Heavens have asked Far Shore residents to pass out the remaining candies to Near Shore residents.
Warnings: Content warning for: emetophobia and suicide mentions/ideation.



It is the day after White Day and, for some reason, there is a mass of chocolates left over. Oddly enough, these chocolates all appear to have been produced by the same small company: Fujisaki Confectioneries. The Heavens hate to see all of this chocolate that was meant to spread joy to the Near Shore go to waste, so they have asked residents of the Far Shore - specifically all you lovely gods and shinki - to go about Japan and pass out chocolates to unsuspecting humans, who will obviously be grateful for such a thoughtful gift, even from a stranger.

There are two problems, though, both stemming from the fact that the chocolates are 'cursed':

First, gods and shinki are prohibited from eating the chocolate and will face dire consequences if they indulge in the goodies, though the Heavens failed to mention what those consequences might be. Second, Near Shore residents are susceptible to the actual 'curse' that has been placed upon the chocolates, which turns out to actually be small ayakashi who want nothing more than to lead any Near Shore resident that they can to their death.

All gods and shinki have been tasked with this errand, including the group that have just arrived as of today. They will find themselves informed of their situation and then promptly handed a large box of chocolates and told to be on their way to pass them out.

Please remember: The only thing the Heavens have said to the gods and shinki is that they are to hand out chocolates and not eat any themselves. There is no IC information about the chocolates being 'cursed' and they seem like perfectly normal chocolates.



Chocolate Giving

Giving out chocolates might seem like a perfectly easy task, but the people of the Far Shore have always had a hard time being noticed by residents of the Near Shore. It might be difficult to catch someone's attention long enough to actually even pass them a bar of chocolate. In fact, you might have to resort to desperate measures, like stepping directly in front of them or grabbing their hand to stop them from continuing onward. How you catch their attention to give them their treat is entirely up to you, but most Near Shore residents don't particularly like being manhandled.

Dire Consequences

Unfortunately, some shinki and gods will likely give in to temptation and take a bite or more of the chocolates they've been given. Any Far Shore resident who eats the chocolates will find themselves suddenly and violently ill. They might come down with an instant fever, find that they can't control their bowels, or be overcome by intense and overwhelming nausea. The way that the sickness hits will be different for each person. Additionally, any shinki that eats the chocolate will find that they have stung their god, blighting themselves and their god in the process.

Ayakashi

The small ayakashi that were hiding out in the chocolate bars are freed the moment that a Near Shore resident takes a bite of the chocolate. These ayakashi may be small, but they are far from weak. As soon as they are free, they will take up residence on the shoulder of the person they are attached to and begin whispering ideas of death in their ears. All Near Shore residents under this influence will instantly find themselves too depressed to go on and will take immediate action to try and end their own suffering. It's best to kill the ayakashi quickly to stop the inevitable from happening.

Noisy Ayakashi

Oddly enough, some of the chocolate bars do not have the depressing ayakashi hanging out in them, but instead a different kind of ayakashi which seem to be completely alright with leaving the Near Shore residents alone. However, the moment that they lay eyes on a Far Shore resident - be it shinki or god - they will attack with a vicious fervor, obviously intending to do as much harm as possible. These Noisy ayakashi will range in size and shape from bugs all the way to small birds. Thank goodness they're not much larger, because they are harder and it seems they can only be taken down when solid teamwork is involved.



In Summary:
  • Pass out chocolate
  • Don't eat it or you'll get sick
  • Save the people you just gave chocolate to
  • Hope you have friends nearby to kill the Noisy ayakashi with
  • Try not to let anyone die
  • Have fun~

Okay, good. Try and keep it that way.

[ Partially because this is gross, and partially because... Bakugou has no idea what to do here. Getting Sorey some water seems like a good idea, though it also seem like a bad plan to just leave him there... ]

You think you can get up, or...?

[ Sorey emits a small sheepish laugh at that. Don't worry, he'll do his best not to.. get sick anytime soon?! At least he doesn't want to burden him with his own problems so he nods and pushes to a stand. He wobbles for a moment, but he seems to be fine enough. ]

Y-Yeah, I should be able to manage. [ Though he's not completely in balance- given he can't really stand still that's pretty obvious enough. ]

Here, I'll give you a hand.

[ Let the record show that he tried, at least. Anyway, he's holding out his hand now, but he's already thinking about how existentially offended and embarrassed he will be if he's rejected. ]

[ Good thing Sorey wouldn't be rude enough to turn down that offer! He does blink briefly, before shooting a lightly appreciative smile. ]

Thanks. [ He takes that hand, taking that support to full push to a stand. ] I'm Sorey, by the way. Or, well, Apollo? [ He forgets which name he's actually suppose to give? What he thinks is his real name? Or his God name? This is confusing. ]
blazeit: (shit idr this person's name)

Apollo, huh... I've actually heard of that one. The sun god, right?

[ He only says this because he's never heard of the god he's paired up with, so he was wondering if they were all esoteric — but Apollo's fairly well known.

It's also a little ironic that the sun god is feeling so under the weather, but he's not going to comment on that and just try to located the convenience store or vending machine; hydration seems like a good idea. ]

Yeah, that's right. [ Sorey is normally one for more excitement, or well perk to his voice- so please excuse him as he isn't in the best shape at the moment. But he still offers a small smile all the same. He's trying..! ]

Done some reading I take? [ Which he asks for sake of curiosity. It helps to keep his mind off how awful he feels at the moment while they move. ]
