20k Leagues Under the Sea: wild pepsitIV

[idolpro]

[The elevator deposits you in the interior of a spacious submersible with a decidedly steampunk aesthetic. All of the metal is brushed bronze, and the navigation tools look to be turn of the century]

[Through the periscope, you can still see the sky; the water visible through the circular windows is a pale blue-green, kissed by filtering sunlight]

RULES

[idolpro]

[The following rules are visible scrawled on a piece of paper on the navigation desk:]

Welcome to 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea!

Your goal is for your team to travel a distance of 20,000 leagues in your submersible. The teams that continue the longest will win a ~fabulous prize~: instant and painless revives, and full healing for one team of their choosing.

The journey won't be easy, though. Every time you choose to take your submersible further into the briny deep, you run the risk of suffering a fatal setback imposed by the challenges of the sea.

You can turn back at any time, safely surfacing. However, fortune favors the bold, and once you ascend, you cannot return to the challenge.

So the decision each round is up to you: will you boldly press onward, to discover the unknown? Or will you return to the realm above, and leave behind the ocean's watery secrets?]

ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[Are you ready to set out on your grand journey to experience the undersea world and all its wonders? y/n]

[Please roll a 1d100 and submit your result with your decision]

[ . . . looking around to see who's here . . . ]

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[romanticlove]

Oh! We're in a room together...?

[Interesting!]

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[proceedwithcautus]

...we can turn back at any time, though?

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[proceedwithcautus]

Ah, Mr. Lucifel!

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[childeishly]

But why would we do that when there's an entire ocean to explore!

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[childeishly]

[ present. throws a hand up. ]

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[proceedwithcautus]

It seems like it's an ocean full of bad things, though. I don't really like to gamble, I don't think.

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[childeishly]

Gambling is the only way we'll have any fun. But if that's the case, then I'll gamble for the both of us then.

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[sancrimony]

Ah.

We should really be careful, then. If something bad happens to us, everyone else will be in trouble.

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[sancrimony]

Eirene-san.

[ headpat ]

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[proceedwithcautus]

[ wah ]

It's just us from sensitIV? Ah, although I know Miss Ren.

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[proceedwithcautus]

I see how it is...

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[sancrimony]

Good morning.

[ is it morning ]

Have we met before?

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[sancrimony]

Perhaps we'll get more people later on.

[ a beat ]

Though, it would be better if we didn't.

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[childeishly]

[ slings an arm around her. ] And maybe we'll find something real cool to fight down here. Most of the ocean is uncharted, you know, so this is 110% a once in a lifetime opportunity. [ maybe. ] But if you get wet feet, then I guess we can turn back.

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[childeishly]

I don't think so. I just know Wild City favors sIV and I meant to pop on over at some point. I'm Caeli.

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[sancrimony]

[ with a bow of his head ]

It's a pleasure. I am Lucifel, the higanbana of sensitIV. Of course, we favor WILD CITY as well.

[ with a beat ]

How do you wish to play?

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[romanticlove]

Oh. Hello. I... don't believe we've met.

[A brief pause-]

Uhm... I'm Ren. It's nice to meet you.

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[proceedwithcautus]

Eehhh... you're probably right.

Ah, I'll do my best, but—the red-haired man wants to try and get far, I think?

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[sancrimony]

[ smiles ]

Since Eirene-san is quite new, I would prefer to keep her out of harm's way, Caeli-san.

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[childeishly]

I'd like to take the adventurous route! because this sounds like a fun chance to explore what the depths of the ocean have to offer, though if at any point anybody wants to turn back, then I won't put up much of a fight. [ his lips quirk when he says 'much'. ]

Re: ROUND 1 DISCUSSION

[sancrimony]

Ahahaha.

[ I'm going to talk to him. ]
