thegamesooc | Valentine's Day Side Plot -- Avoid Baron's Gifts

Hello my fellow Tributes/Capitol Citizens!

This is Mel and I'm bringing you a totally optional and mod-approved side plot just in time for Valentine's Day!

To celebrate the upcoming ending of another Arena and the archaic holiday of Valentine's Day, Baron has sent a ton of gifts to Tribute Tower! When the Tributes go to the main mess hall tomorrow morning they'll find a table with an elaborate display of candies, baked goods, flowers, adorable stuffed animals and other assortments of cheesy Valentine's Day themed gifts sent to them by ever generous Baron Bartlett.

However, as they all should soon realize Baron's gifts always come with a catch.

Two types of chocolate have been laced with drugs. The chocolate covered cherries have been laced with the a designer drug which will lower your character's inhibitions, put them in a generally happy/touchy/feely mood, but give them one heck of a crash after the affect wear off. The chocolate covered caramels have been laced with drugs that will make them hallucinate.

This plot is completely optional. All of the other treats are completed devoid of any and all drugs. Even the chocoholics who wish to opt out can gorge themselves on chocolate truffles or chocolate covered nuts.

If you have any questions about how this affects your character feel free to ask! Also feel free to use this post as a general plotting post to give everyone an idea of what your character will be doing while under the influence.

Note: Post was edited after posting to make the drugs less literal. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Edit: Oh, I forgot to include. I will be making a post tonight for this so that we can keep all of the drug related things in one post. You can always feel free to post with your characters outside of that, but to contain all of the possibly triggering material I'm going to make a base post for your character to reply to as needed. Baron won't actually be there to interact with anyone, but the post will be there to kick off the plot.

okok. So Ariadne will probably be avoiding these chocolates just all around because Baron's a total creeper and skeeved her out last time she dealt with him. That said, she may be persuaded to eat, like, one or two, given the right person asking.

Draco, however, is the Boy Who Made All the Wrong Choices and that includes gorging himself on chocolates. Either of them. Both of them. Whatever.

So let me know if you want interactions, because I would like them. c:

Oh Draco. You and your life choices.

Hey, don't mock his life choices. Sometimes they're good.

"Sometimes." Suuuure. ;)

Shhh. ~~Just look at BN. Some of those choices were good. :3~~

Yeah, all of the ones where he ended up sleeping with my characters were awesome!

There we go! That's the spirit!

I desperately want some drugged up Draco and Momoko interaction, just saying.

Oooh. Yes, I like this. What genre of drugged up are we going?

I was going to have Momoko go for the cherries, and it'll be the most relaxed and sociable she's been since...ever. Would that work?

Yes. Yes, it would. If I had Draco on the cherries as well, he'd be...well, downright cuddly. If that's a thing you're into. Otherwise he'll just spout hilarity as he hallucinates things.

I am totally down with the cuddling. There will probably be hair stroking as well.

Gods, he loves hair stroking. So freaking much.

Done and done. Where shall it occur?

Haha, perfect.

Hm. Looking at the Tribute Center description, how about the South Wing, the greenroom or something? I could see Momoko gathering up a selection of sweets and wandering off to find some quiet corner there.

That'd work nicely. c: He'll probably just wander around with his own selection after he gets tired of his District or something.

Dracon and Morrigan should talk...while he's drugged could be a fun time to meet?

That'd be an amusing turn of events! Cuddly or hallucinating? (Also, what District is she in?)

She's from 1! And, hm. Any plans on what he'll be hallucinating?

Super cool. Not a clue as of right now. I imagine his hallucinations will be on the lighter side, though. Possibly with the odd darker one thrown in.

Hey Draco. There's this ~~Weasley~~ redhead who works on your floor.

They should...do things. Potentially hilarious things. For reasons of ~~Weasley~~ being on the same floor, of course.

Like hallucinating amusing things?

How would Ariadne like to deal with a drugged Don? :D

...yes, good. :Db What genre of drugged are we thinking?

Hallucinatory. |D

Sounds brilliant to me. She'll be so confused.
