WEEK 4 DAY 1: MISSION

[wonderful_mods]

Mission: Make an offering to God.
Time Limit: Medium
Noise Plane: Duet
Wall Instructions: Key walls around the Naganaki Shrine. Condition must be a Pact. Seal off the dorm and school.
Wall Rewards: Chaos
Reaped Rewards: One Stroke, Vast Wealth
Mission Rewards: 1000 yen

[It's a slightly different mission than the standard "go here" you get on the first day, although that's still basically what it amounts to. There's a shrine not far from the train station, and it has a Donation Box ...

However, the task is more difficult than what may have been anticipated by veterans of the game, for as soon as the mission mail appears and the timer appears on the Players' hands, the stray noise in the area begin to attack any Players without a pact... better hope you're not alone.]

[She can only smile wryly at the fact that the Flutters couldn't draw the connection between the tattooed markings on her body and her zebra form. How could she blame them?]

I'm afraid I have a true surprise:
The one you see is here, before your eyes.

[shy_kindness]

[It takes a few seconds before The Flutters realize who she's talking to and gasps.]

Zecora! Y- you're a human...!

[zebrarhyme_everytime]

In body if not at heart.
I am now playing a human part.
I have been charged a new entry fee
And the price I pay -- well, see the new me!

[shy_kindness]

[The Flutters take in Zecora's new form.]

You look... nice.

[zebrarhyme_everytime]

Is that nice in the true sense of the word?
Or nice in that you're hiding how you find it absurd?

[There's no rancor in her voice. What should she EXPECT anypony to think but that this is bizarre and alarming?]

1/2

[shy_kindness]

Oh, um, I-...

I'm sorry.

2/2

[cruel_kindness]

[Fluttercruel takes control. She has no qualms of being blunt.]

You look bucking weird.

[Fluttercruel! That's not a nice thing to say.]

[zebrarhyme_everytime]

[Zecora just chuckles.]

I seem to recall my friends thought the same
When they found zebra stripes to be less than tame.

[cruel_kindness]

[Here comes some more playful ribbing.]

You're just going to have to brew up some more poison joke so we trust you again.

[zebrarhyme_everytime]

Maybe I'll be easier to Erase
While I'm lacking my familiar face.

[Zecora can rib right back, if a bit darkly.]

[cruel_kindness]

[Fluttercruel makes a show of sizing Zecora up. Of course, this is just still playful ribbing.]

You're right. You're doomed. Better hide while you can.

[zebrarhyme_everytime]

All I'd have to do is take off my cloak.
You'd confuse me with other humanfolk.

[cruel_kindness]

...Point. Drat, foiled again.

[She makes a face like she's disappointed, but she's really not.]

[zebrarhyme_everytime]

Reapers do not pay a fee
As part of their Game entry?

[After all, she'd never turned down the Player offer; she doesn't know what speech they might have gotten.]

[cruel_kindness]

You got that right.

[She's not going to tell Zecora that she can't drink coffee. ...she can really go for a cup right now.]

[zebrarhyme_everytime]

I almost envy that lack of fee
But I cannot give up yet, you see.
