☆BETTER TO PRETEND: MATCH UPS!

☆BETTER TO PRETEND pt 2



Just as the Hook siblings promised, within a week the various “Heroes” have been selected and contacted to their fabulous new roles. A few days after the initial contact, those who were successful in their audition are picked up in another bus to be brought back to Sevetop along with the various musicians who agreed to sign up for this little publicity stunt. It’s purely business when it’s revealed…

Some of the musicians will be participating as heroes as well!

What a twist.

There’s also something planned to be aired as the finale. Each challenge has a win and lose condition, and those that succeed at "winning" qualify for the finale! And that’s where we need to figure out things ICly.

Down in the comments below, we have 12 different challenges with both the Hero-Royal pairings that are participating and the details of each one. What we need from the participating players is for them to reply to the challenge relevant to their character and tell us some things.

For Royals, are you helping your Hero? Hindering? Doing nothing but heckling?

For Heroes, do you have any traits or skills that could help you out in your challenge? Ones that would slow you down?

Alternatively, you can talk with your partner and decide what the two of you want to do and how you want it to do. If your character succeeds at the "WIN" condition of their trial, they qualify for the grand finale, which will be a large free for all with only one winner!

Let us know here by March 24th!

☆GOLD'S RESCUER MISSION
While this goes on, of course, the Rescuers are going to have to have an ulterior motive. There’s a reason Gold enabled them into getting these roles, of course, and in the days leading up filming, they are going to go into more detail.

They’ll explain that they’ve tried to make it as simple as possible for people, in order to expedite the mission. All they have to do is, by one means or another, cause each of the musicians to injest a dash of the fine, iridescent white power that Gold will be handing out. These samples will be given in very, very small portions - the equivalent amount of several cupcake sprinkles. Gold will make sure to express just how valuable this dust is, and how they can’t afford to lose much, if any of it.

As for how to get them to “ingest” it? Gold will say the easiest way is definitely to have them consume it in a drink or something of the like, though for that they will need to consume most of whatever it’s dissolved into. Beyond that, things that could be attempted: causing them to inhale it, injecting it, using it as a suppository - in the end it doesn’t really matter! As long as as many musicians as possible have been given a dose before filming is over, things will be good.

This can be done either by the rescuers they are paired with for the actual game show, or by the support that will be glamoured with a kind of “invisibility” (AKA everyone who sees them will be disinclined to question how they got there and will assume they are just working for the company). Contestants and support will be encouraged to work together to make this happen.

1. Is it purely a capella, or are the Heroes also provided with instruments of some kind?

2. I haven't decided yet when Pao-Lin's electricity powers will manifest ICly. If there were some minor display of this -- equipment malfunction or something -- what would be the reaction from production and NPCs and whatnot?

Okay, just so I am understanding this right:
If three pairs are doing the same fairy tale, is it at the same time? Like can the heroes interact while they run through their course or is it partitioned off into separate rooms? Are the royals all fighting over the same control panel etc? Are Bill and Art able to get at eachother, do you realize what you have done?

With the powder, if say a character wants to target two people with the powder, is it a big drop in effectiveness to split it, or would Gold recommend against doing something like that?

The tower is also in the middle of water, so if you fall, it won’t be too bad.

... Unless water will kill you because there's no respawing here.

So... Agent 3 must win hers because losing means death. (Or I guess she could reveal she's not human on TV and Super Jump to safety because either way the truth will out... and probably be taken out by security.) She is quite athletic and looks like a child, so the task shouldn't be too hard for her if she's not sabotaged horribly. She's going to look terrified at the idea of failing her task, so maybe she'll tug heartstrings? 8D;;

Ryouta is going to be very helpful because he's excited to see Kai rescue him. So he's going to be easy.

Tooru on the other hand is more likely to be a dick for the sake of being a dick. Especially if his Hero says or does something to annoy him. This can range from being unhelpful, to the silent treatment, to using the paint ball gun. He'll ham it up. Of course, if the hero manages to impress him he'll be helpful. He can go either way, just gotta make a good impression on him Robin.

Riza's combat trained and has actual battlefield experience. Also, swords are still a thing considering both Wrath and Olivier Armstrong use them (and technically Ed as well) so she should have some familiarity with one, so a fake one shouldn't be too difficult.

Minako's an aspiring idol back home. She'd sing on stage every chance she got, and she's apparently fairly decent at it. Which is why it's been a mystery (and a slight insult to the ego) all along that the kidnappers targeted Rei and not her.

She's absolutely giving it her all.

[personal profile] sponsorigami 2016-03-22 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
Ivan actually has the skills to do this. I imagine he went through training like this during the Hero Academy and does things like this while hero-ing. All the memory regains during this. Since he's gotten back his shapeshifting, he's not nearly as clumsy as he was in the start of the game. If he's not shot with the spray guns, he shouldn't have too much trouble until the end with the narrow walkway and foam bar.

He can easily go for a win or have some little klutzy accident due to being lost in a memory regain and fall. I'm not too picky on a win or lose.

Usagi and Artolo will be LOSING in no small part because stealth is not Usagi's forte and Artolo is sending security after her every five minutes. She'll cheer on all her loved ones, though. She will be succeeding in getting Artolo to drink the dust, though with absolutely no issue.
