*The first thing you notice as you step inside are Valentine's decorations dangling from the ceiling on gossamer threads. Next, the walls, decorated with red and gold drapes held back with braided gold sashes. Large sconces between the red and gold drapes are on full power, cute little hearts casting their shadows against the frosted glass as the brilliant light inside shines. Across the floor of the event center are rows of cushions and short tables with coasters and stationery.*
Hoho… It’s so nice to see everyone again! I had so much fun with all of you at the 2022 Festival of Winter Nights reunion! So many familiar faces and so many fun memories that were made. Not to mention all the nice things that were found for everyone by the hard working cleanup crew. *chuckles*

Oh but, I am getting ahead of myself...

*Magnus stops in front of you, one hand behind his back, the other resting comfortably as he grips his lapel. Although he towers above you, you still feel an aura of invitation and delight.*
Welcome, hoho! Welcome to the Venerable Retrospection: A Valentine's Day Celebration! Please take a seat. The evening's preparations are nearly done! We will soon begin the inspection of the Time Capsule we found at the town hall over the Festival of Winter Nights. *chuckles* Some of you got much too excited and ended up breaking open a wall. But wouldn't you know it? There was something hidden inside! Hohoho!
*Magnus walks away, head back as his shoulders shake in mirth. You turn your attention to the rows of seating and find a comfortable spot to settle down. On the table next to your cushion is a program of the nights events. Reading through, you see quite a few things on the list. The first "Act" of the night is a... Memoria? Followed by the opening of the Time Capsule Magnus mentioned followed by a series of remembrance programs. On the back of the program you are surprised to find a list of participation events! Hmm... It seems to list prizes as well!

As the lights begin to dim, you settle into your seat, adjusting your legs to a more comfortable position. Refreshments are brought around to all the tables. You can't help but feel a buzz of excitement begin to wind up in your chest. An energy you haven't felt in a long time electrifies your limbs with restless desire. You wonder about the Time Capsule... Just exactly what might be inside?*

It gets harder to remember things as you get older. But when you have a road map of experiences you can look back on, it’s much easier to rekindle those old moments.


(10 Points) Family Videos?... Most of us have those old grainy videos with the shaky camera work. It is nearly a household tradition is it not? If you do not, that is ok. Especially because that is what this is all about. With the filters available to us today, this should be no problem. Make a 1980s styled film, comic strip, or slideshow, no longer than 3 minutes, that adequately depicts your childhood and your favorite moments growing up(There is a lot of creative license to this one! Have fun!)

(8 Points) – Wordy Recitals… Retelling a story is part of creating a living memory that you can pass down from generation to generation. It is funny how those retold stories can sometimes become bigger fish than what was actually caught! Retell a memory from your Menewsha history for our benefit, making sure to embellish a bit! How is up to you but I do hope it is entertaining! (500 words minimum. Include in it a reference link for the original un-embellished story. And, if it involves other users, please be kind )

(6 Points) – Artist’s Rendition... Do you have a memory here on Menewsha that you just love to go back and revisit from time to time? Why not immortalize it… Using whatever artistic medium you would like, recreate a moment in time from Menewsha involving yourself. (This memory must be from before 2023)[color=red]Please remember to include your username somewhere in the pic!

(4 Points) – Sharing is caring… I am sure you have plenty of memories of Menewsha! Share here at least 5 memories that happened in a quotable post featuring yourself and quote them all in a single post in this thread. (+1 Bonus point if one of those memories is a memory that influenced a positive outcome in your life) Please remember to quote any old text copy and pasted to a new post!

(2 points) – Remember that time… I have a few memories here on Menewsha that I often retell. They aren’t all mine though. Link to or retell an old memory that just tickles your fancy every time you think of it from here on Menewsha. (One story per submission please

I think Time Capsules are important. They are memories with strong feelings that transport us through time (hopefully to a happy place!) But without new memories we would have nothing to look back on when we step into the future.

So… Let’s make some new memories!


(10 Points) Effigy Adventures... It's hard these days to not experience loneliness. But there are ways to combat it! Take for instance the wonderful NPCs here in Menewsha! Take your favorite Menewsha NPC and create a real life representation of that NPC. It could be a doll, or a mechanical construct, perhaps even made of twigs and leaves! *chuckles* As long as it is a recognizable Menewsha NPC, it counts. Take that Effigy and show us what a day looks like between you and your best effigy friend! (Much like a date, you must create your Effigy and organize/document with picture or video the best day ever of two besties hanging out)

(8 Points) – Together Forever… Memories are often best shared with others. Where are you headed this week? Who with? Doing something fun? Hoho! I don’t need to know these things. But if you are making some memories with someone, record it through some medium or another, something that you could and would want to share here on Menewsha. Get creative! Montage… Time lapse… Cute paper cutouts of your avatar and all the places you visit!

(6 Points) - Don't Force It... Making new memories can be difficult. The important thing is to not force it. If it can be helped... Do your best to make an unforced memory with at least 2 other Menewshans. It probably will end up being forced... But that is alright. It is after all, the point of this challenge. It is supposed to blow up in your face! (This challenge can be shared with at least 3 people. Imagination required and encouraged!)

(4 Points) – Fancy Fortifications… Some memories can be a little bit scary to remember… Show us how you protect yourself from them by building a fort! Pillows and blankets or wood and leaves, it’s up to you how you want to build it. You must be able to fit at least half your body inside. Finally, take a picture of you with your legs sticking out of said fort to share on Menewsha. Please remember to include your username somewhere in the picture!

(2 Points) – Loving Life… Hoho, life is quite an adventure no? Often in our everyday lives we can be stuck in the past or lost in the future when all around us is a moment that can still bring a contented happiness if one but looks hard enough. Create an avatar that illustrates the following statement: “I have everything I
need to live a full, happy life.”

What will you be up to a few months from now? Years? Decades? Who knows! But there are some ways you can dream of what you will be up to and some ways you can prepare to say hello to yourself from the past.


(10 Points) – Wibbly Wobbly, Timey Wimey… Time is such an interesting concept. To think it can be bent by gravity boggles the mind! Hoho… I find when time stands still to be the most interesting though, like memories frozen in time, waiting to be discovered. I think you know where I’m going with this… Make a Time Capsule for your future self to discover! You must include:
  • A postive not for yourself to read in the future
  • At least one memory from this event
  • A printout or drawn picture of your avatar with your username
  • Something for your future self to play with
  • Something to pay for the Time Capsule’s passage through time
  • Anything else you would like to be inside
Be conscious of items you put inside so it will last! I highly recommend moisture packets if you have any saved.
(It is up to you how long you would like to wait to open your Time Capsule but I recommend 10 or more years)

(8 points) – Future Plans Scrapped… I have found that having a place now where you can put your memories yet to be revealed makes it more trivial to document those important moments in your life. Start a scrapbook (or journal) but make it flashy. Add in any appropiate memories of your year so far then pre-decorate pages and get them ready for that last snow of the season or the first ray of sunshine that truly feels like summer. Share your result with us! Please make sure to include your username somewhere on your memory keeping device

(6 Points) – 2005 Is Calling… Maybe you know what is about to happen next? Hohoho… I have provided you with a list of 250 questions. To earn these 6 points, you must answer at least 100 questions that you must share here on Menewsha But you must be sure to save this list for your future self! (You can pick and choose which questions. Please put your questions in the code provided below when you post)

Using your avatar as a template, create and color a pixel item you wish Menewsha had in it’s inventory of items. NOTE: Your item must be something that the site has never seen in any shop (That is to say, copying a poncho from the import shop and changing the colors would NOT be considered a new item. Using incomplete images you have previously created is allowed as long as they are finished for this task.)

30.) If you could kill off any character from a current TV show who would it be and why?
I struggle with this because i’m not really watching any new TV shows that aren’t reality. If I can pick an old show, Wesley from Star Trek, ugh.

I used to be so scared of the Nightmare Before Christmas as a kid, i think it made me cry. Now I love it, but… I can kinda see where I was coming from, it’s aesthetically very spooky for a 5 year old. But my little sisters loved it when they were that age, so maybe i was just a little soft
33.) What used to be considered trashy but now is very classy?
Really short dresses! I mean, it has to be a designer brand, but now most cocktail dresses I see are cut above the thigh.

Now, I don’t know how accurate this is because people will say a lot of things about Norma Jean, but Marilyn Monroe was reported to have a bit of a strange appetite!

37.) What set of items could you buy that would make the cashier the most uncomfortable?
A book on how to support your daughter through puberty, a box of extra-absorbent tampons, and a greeting card that says “CONGRATULATIONS! YOU DID IT!!!”
38.) What is the funniest joke you know by heart?
A man was just convicted for a crime, and he’s being taken into jail. As he’s entering, he hears a man saying a number:
“FOURTY-THREE!!!”
All the prisoners BURST into laughter, even some of the guards crack a smile.
The new prisoner looks around, confused about what could be so funny about a number. Then he hears another one:
“FIFTEEN!!”
Everyone loses it again! Raucous laughter echoes off of the brick walls of the prison cells.
The new prisoner is led into his cell, where his new bunkmate is still being rocked by peals of laughter.
“Hey, man,” the new prisoner begins to ask his new bunkmate, “what’s with the numbers? I’ve never been to jail before, is it some kind of prison thing?”
The bunkmate wipes a tear from his eye, sighing away the last of his laughter.
“Well, you know. We’ve been here so long, we’ve all memorized all the jokes we know by now. So, we decided to save time and just give them all numbers.”
The new prisoner hears another prisoner from down the hall yell:
“TWENTY-SEVEN!!”
And everyone busts out laughing again.
Swelling with confidence, the new prisoner says:
“Ok, I want to try!”
The bunkmate shrugs,
“Go ahead.”
The new inmate takes a deep breath, then bellows out
“THIRTY THREE!”
Silence.
He tries again, less confident this time,
“Th… thirty three?”
No one laughs.
“I don’t get it, man, what did I do wrong?” The new prisoner asks his bunkmate.
“Eh, I guess it’s all how you tell it.”
BADUMCHHHHHH
39.) What are the unwritten rules of where you work?
I don’t work, so there are no rules! Unless you count my SSI, in which case the rule is “don’t make too much money and don’t get married”
40.) What is something that you just recently realized that you are embarrassed you didn’t realize earlier?
The 40 Year Old Virgin is about an autistic Demisexual man and it’s actually a really uplifting movie and a criticism of the dudebro comedy it pretends to be. For years, the autism-coding was just totally lost on me and I can’t believe now that I didn’t see it for so long.
41.) What is the funniest corporate / business screw up you have heard of?
I just really like it when places have their lights go out in humorous ways. Like a Home Depot that just says “ME POT”.
42.) If you die and find out that everyone gets to choose a twelve-foot by twelve-foot square to stay in alone for eternity without being able to influence or contact the living world, what twelve-foot by twelve-foot square would you choose?
Really really deep in the ocean. I feel like all the fish down there are basically unable to influence or contact the living world either and they’re all doing fine so, why not?
43.) What’s the best type of cheese?
How dare you make me choose. Right now I’m craving shredded Fiesta blend cheese, so i guess i’ll say that. But I also really like goat cheese, brie cheese, and Iberico.
44.) If you were ruler for a day, what would be your first rule that you would change?
Everyone gets all the basic necessities they need to live for free. Money can still exist and whatever, but everyone needs to have access to food, water, a place to stay, etc.
45.) What kind of cult would you like to start?
No, I’m not interested in cults.
46.) In one sentence, how would you sum up the internet?
A little bit of everything, all of the time, apathy’s a tragedy and boredom is a crime, anything and everything all of the time.

I would beat Descartes to being the first to say “I think, therefore I am.”
96.) Toilet paper, over or under?
OVER, UGH!! CRETINS!!! It’s just so much more difficult to pull off the roll when it’s under, but then at the same time it’s too easy to pull off too much once you’ve started, and it just randomly unrolls itself!! Big dislike.
97.) What fictional character is amazing in their book / show / movie, but would be insufferable if you had to deal with them in mundane everyday situations?

I do what I do, what do you do, do you do the do?
99.) What would some fairytales be like if they took place in the present and included modern technology and culture?
Cinderella would have a GPS tracking device in her shoe and would find the prince before he finds her. Ariel would just use a text-to-speech device, or communicate through sign language.

Yes, and so is oatmeal if you make it wrong.

-Be very confused and wonder what happened to my body.

#3 - 11.) What is something that everyone looks stupid doing?
-Smoking or vaping.

#4 - 12.) Have you ever sent a text message to the wrong person?

#6 - 14.) Have you ever caught something on fire while you were cooking?
-My hair :( just a little bit though

#7 - 19.) What is your favorite dance move to do when you are at the club?
-I used to play this game with friends where we would discreetly choose people on the dance floor to copy their dance moves! That was my favorite.

#8 - 21.) If animals could talk, which would be the rudest?
-Definitely crows. They are such intelligent troublemakers!

#10 - 53.) What’s the best Wi-Fi name you’ve seen?
-Hide yo kids, hide yo wifi

#11 - 72.) In the event of the apocalypse, what three places are you going to first to gather supplies?

#13 - 67.) If you were a pair of shoes, what kind of shoes would you be?
-A comfortable pair of sneakers where the shoelaces never unravel and trip people :)

#14 - 64.) If you had to give up either brushing your teeth or brushing your hair every day, which one would you choose?
-Definitely brushing my hair every day — I don’t even brush my hair that often, but I do brush my teeth 1-2x every day!

#15 - 100.) Is cereal soup?
-Maybe if the cereal has sat in the milk long enough to be soft, then sure it can be soup :)

#16 - 118.) Which of your friends are you proudest of? Why?
-One of my dear friends from college who is now a director of a non-profit, travels the world, and sits at the United Nations sometimes. She grew up poor in a dangerous neighborhood and also makes a difference locally by giving back to her community.

#17 - 69.) Would you rather be a hobbit or an elf for a day? What is the first thing you would do?
-An elf for sure. I am already on the smaller side so I imagine being a hobbit won’t be too different haha. The first thing I would do is try sending a telepathic message to someone nearby to see if they react.

#18 - 94.) If you were a street fighter, what would your theme song be and why?
-Unstoppable by Sia!

#19 - 162.) Using one word, how would you describe your family?

#20 - 242.) If you had to either shave your head or dye all of your hair pink, which would you choose?

#22 - 178.) Do you sleep with your sheets tucked in or out?
-Always tucked out. I prefer the freedom of movement.

#23 - 65.) What’s invisible but you wish people could see?

-I have always thought my parents were the best!
201.) If you could shop for free at one store, which one would you choose?

-My parents because they have sacrificed so much in their lives and yet are still such good people!

#26 - 190.) Would you rather eat a stick of butter or snort a tablespoon of salt?
-I would rather eat the butter. I don’t want to accidentally snort salt into my lungs.

#27 - 180.) What’s your favorite kind of sandwich?
-So many kinds, but a recent one was a vegan BLT — instead of bacon, chickpea tempeh infused with liquid smoke and paprika! Then lettuce, tomatoes, and vegan mayonnaise on healthy bread (the kind with lots of seeds and grains in it)

#28 - 203.) Have you ever been banned from a public place? If so, why?
-I don’t think so.

#29 - 174.) Have you ever noticed that easy open packages are actually pretty hard to open?
-Yes. My gallon of milk immediately comes to mind — the pull tab simply does not do the job. I have to use something sharp to poke a hole, then manually peel it open.

-Drop all my stuff, peel off my clothing, and take a shower!

#31 - 197.) Would you rather spend five days exploring Disney or New York City?

-Having a built-in best friend!

#37 - 199.) Could you go a week without your smart phone?

-It’s perfectly fine!

#39 - 82.) Do you fold your pizza when you eat it?
-Not most of the time, but I have occasionally folded it if the bread part was too floppy to eat without making a mess!

#40 - 107.) Who was your worst teacher? Why?
-Without naming names…she was the worst because she left extremely negative and false feedback at the end of the class for each student that worked with her, mostly copy pasted from student to student. Fortunately, we were able to eventually remove the feedback, but it required escalating the issue to leadership.

#41 - 108.) Who was your favorite teacher? Why?
-My third grade teacher! Even now, I still remember how she was kind to everyone in the class, no matter what they were struggling with, so we always felt safe to learn from her. She was always fair.

#42 - 45.) What kind of cult would you like to start?
-One where everyone is kind to animals and does their best for the environment through waste reduction and recycling!

#43 - 85.) You’re a mad scientist, what scientific experiment would you run if money and ethics weren’t an issue?

#44 - 109.) Which would you pick: being world-class attractive, a genius or famous for doing something great?

#45 - 111.) What was your favorite toy growing up?
-I had a plush doggy and a plush kitty that were among my favorites growing up! I would usually carry them both around with me at the same time.

#46 - 117.) Would you rather sweat melted cheese or have snakes for hair?
-I would go with the snakes for hair for practical reasons! I feel like it would be easier to hide a head full of snakes under a hat or headscarf. On the other hand, if I sweated melted cheese, I can’t imagine a day when my clothes would not be oily and ruined!

#47 - 140.) Would you rather have x-ray vision or the ability to always know when someone is lying to you?
-X-ray vision for sure. I think it would come in handy if someone needs medical help. I understand that sometimes people “lie” but it’s not always a bad thing.

#48 - 155.) What’s your favorite thing about one of your grandparents?
-I think my grandmother is super cool because she can speak multiple languages and is an expert on rocks lol

#52 - 62.) Which body part do you wish you could detach and why?
-Uterus and ovaries to avoid menstruation every month, since that is sometimes a physically challenging time for me. Also, noses! So that when your nose is all sniffly, you can just take it off and empty it out lol.

#53 - 182.) Cake or pie?
I really love both lol. I guess if I had to choose, I would go with cake over pie.

-I think similar but maybe slightly more strict since I was the oldest sibling.

#58 - 151.) What living person, other than family members, do you most admire?

Wibbly Wobbly, Timey Wimey… Time is such an interesting concept. To think it can be bent by gravity boggles the mind! Hoho… I find when time stands still to be the most interesting though, like memories frozen in time, waiting to be discovered. I think you know where I’m going with this… Make a Time Capsule for your future self to discover! You must include:
  • A positive note for yourself to read in the future
  • At least one memory from this event
  • A printout or drawn picture of your avatar with your username
  • Something for your future self to play with
  • Something to pay for the Time Capsule’s passage through time
  • Anything else you would like to be inside
  • "You are worthy of love"
  • Yumeh Cross Stitch
  • My and Ghost's avis from our adventure
  • Fidget toy
  • 1 a dolla (in cat-opoly money)
  • I added a mountain house meal, those last 30 years! (and they're delicious), and I added some mini m&ms because who doesn't like candy in a tube

Carn-Sicle - An Origin StoryX

It started out like any old event. The threads, the users, the prizes. Everyone was flush with tokens, and spendin em too. Fortunes were won and lost every 15 minutes. But that’s not what this story is about see?

No… The item in question was in fact the 2015 Mafia Games wherein 3 mobsters smuggled themselves into a party to enjoy some similarly smuggled chocolates from the Isle de Cacao! Amongst a bunch of us simple townies. It was mostly us vanilla types (myself included) but there was a doctor and a detective too! The 11th guest, our host actually, Mrs. Evelynna Emerald was cut down in the prime of her life! So our group of 10 did what any self respectin’ group of individuals would do. We locked ourselves inside until we found out just who dunnit…

Now I was just a simple vanilla type but the rest of the group didn’t know that for sure. I didn’t know these people and they didn’t know me see? So’s I come out of the gate strong! You know, let em know justice is on my mind and that I ain’t gonna put up with no funny business!

But with the dead body of Mrs. Emerald holed up in the freezer, I suddenly felt mortality knocking at the door of my soul. Fear flooded my body.

“It wasn’t me! I pleaded!” Thankfully musasgal quickly took the attention away from my sweaty brow.

For some reason this gal seemed far to concerned with why these chocolates were smuggled in here in the first place.

Now… I’m not one of those criminal sorts understand? But uh… I have been known to enjoy the spices of life that lie on the grayer side of the law, capiche? Soon as those words were outta that gal’s mouth I was stricken with the fact that this person may be law enforcement… NOT GOOD...

That’s when Silenia walked in the room…

Yes how terrible! Pahh! I don’t know if it was the look of utter apathy on her face or the singsong quality of her voice… But I was eyeing her for the deed straight up.

The conversation ran in circles, nothing of much substance being said. Accusations flew as other guests entered the room.

This mook! Did they think this was some game? A stiff in the freezer and they’re comparing it to a party game… I crossed them off the list right then. Couldn’t have been someone like that. Didn’t have the stomach for it.

It didn’t take long for the party to turn against me. I was talkin fast an too much! But Mnemosyne came to my rescue!

We need to decide what we DO know about the situation and how to properly determine who could have done this heinous crime!
Cold calculating logic… I could get behind this and I did. Despite my nerves making me seem far more guilty than I actually was, Mnemosyne had given me a reprieve.

I took a moment to look around the room… So far there were only 6 of us… Strange… So I pointed it out, thinking to turn the gaze of suspicion on them! And it worked! Till Ascadelllia waltzed in the room...

---------- Post added 02-13-2015 at 03:21 PM ----------

Also, totally not me. I was picking flowers~
There it was again! Trying to turn the screws on me just because my skin was a bit clammy! No one seemed to pick up on it though… Her little fib… Picking flowers! Inside the house! Mrs. Emerald didn’t have no conservatory… I let the lie slide and started pacing.

There really was no good way of knowing who was who in this deck of cards… It was all 6s and 7s. No one had seen a thing and inspection of the crime scene yielded nothing. Our bag of evidence was empty and the stress was starting to get to me… I grabbed for my coffee, my hand disappearing inside my coat with my back turned to dump the contents of my special bottle of… Syrup… into the dark and bitter liquid.

I took a sip and boy did that sooth my jittery nerves! That’s when I noticed Mnemosyne stuffing her face with chocolate. I guess we all had to clam our nerves some way or another. Angie on the other hand, helped herself, stuffing her pockets full to bursting. If someone could steal like that… I made a note of it.

Glancing around the room again, I took a count. Still only seven of us… EirianHikari, Kent, and CycloneKira were the other guests but I hadn’t seen hide nor hair of them. Absence at a time like this… Alarm bells were ringing in my head like someone was poundin my skull with a billy club.

Night was falling and a decision had to be made. One of us was gonna die tonight and it sure wasn’t gonna be me! That’s when it happened. Mnemosyne laid out her choice. CycloneKira… My stomach did a little flip inside me. We hadn’t even rolled to see who we should lynch of those that weren’t here! She pulled out a shooter and tossed it. “EirianJHikari!” Clearly just guessing… Her previous logic was going out the window!

Kent burst into the room…

Asking questions like we had just started this conundrum...

With time running short I took the reins and tried to drive the lynching towards CycloneKira. I had a suspicion EirianHikari was already out of the picture… sjacklene finally jumped aboard. And slowly but surely… The rest of the guests all voted.

In the end Hikari was dead… In the end… We killed an innocent...

CycloneKira finally showed up the next morning.
Quote:

Maybe not the best thing to say first thing in the morning… More suspicion!

More suspicion was thrown my way dispite my new tact of LOOK guilty therefore I couldn’t BE guilty… It didn’t work and I was starting to regret my party outfit of choice. They were all right, I did look like a mob boss… *sigh* The rest of day two devolved into chocolate throwing, mostly at Angie which soothed my soul. She was clearly gunning to put me down and the only reason I could think of was because she was in fact a Mafiosi type…

As the day drew to a close, suspicion was once again cast on those that were the most silent. With that in mind, the rest of us stalked each other mercilessly. No one went anywhere alone and our actions were closely scrutinized! I put forth a vote. CycloneKira! But none of the other guests were having any of that…

“Ascadellia!” Voted Angie...

“sjacklene!” Voted Kent...

I laid out my logic. I was ninty percent sure Angie and Kira were the mobsters. I tried to get the rest to see reason…

Despite my sound reasoning… sjacklene cast their doubt upon me… “Car’a’Carn!” They voted with no preamble. I slugged back some gin as a fresh wave of jitters took me. I returned the accusation in kind.

The board was full, with nearly every other guest having at least one deathmark. Time was running out as everyone rushed to persuade the rest that it wasn’t them… in the end, I was even convinced to change my vote a third time that day… Ascadellia…

As it would turn out… That same night would be my last…

The gruesome job was done. Ascadellia lay in a growing pool of red on the dirty concrete floor of the basement. I looked around at the rest of my fellow lynchers and grimaced, the blood still warm on my hands. I don’t know who had dealt the final blow but it had taken all of us. Shocked to my core and in serious need of libations… I made my way to the kitchen and cleaned myself up.

Stomach grumbling, I looked around. Bottles empty, cupboards bare of anything remotely tasty, I finally spotted the freezer. It wasn’t like a normal freezer either! No, this was a top of the line model, the kind you can walk in. I knew Mrs. Emerald was in there, covered by a tartan patterned blanket with a sheen of frost but… That was also the last place left to check for Mrs. Emeralds secret stash of chocolate treats and ice cream goodies...

I’d already seen 3 dead bodies in the last 2 days… besides… she was covered with a blanket. I couldn’t see her! So I popped open the door and took a look as I stood in the open doorway. A sudden shove found me tumbling into it’s depths as I fell up on the cold, stiff body of Mrs. E…

“You got to close and you’re far to convincing for your own good…” The voice behind me sent a chill down my spine as I whirled to see Angie framed in the dark by the glow of the kitchen light behind her. I could still make out the grin on her face though… The haunting, maniacal grin that was the last thing I ever saw.

The door slammed shut and the light winked off. I scrambled to the door but no dice… It was locked from the outside. This was it. This was the end for me… I felt around for Mrs. E’s body and stole her blanket as my last criminal act in this world, wrapping myself to keep warm. Little did I know that would only prolong the inevitable…



The others found me the next morning… A very dead... very frozen... Car’a’Carn-sicle…


Epilog...
If I’d been alive to witness it, I would have seen the Mafiosis convince the rest to once again remove their suspicions from Kira and vote for sjacklene… There were still a few left alive when the voting stopped. But only for a moment. With the three mobsters in the majority, they made quick work of the mususgal and Silenia

CycloneKira, xoxoAngiexoxo, and Kent walked outta Mrs. Emerald’s scotfree and with all the chocolate loot they could carry.

SPOILERX


I actually have had a few time capsules over the years. The longest running one took me around 15 years to open. It was an old box of keepsakes from when I was a younger dude XD I ended up getting rid of a lot of those things but still hung on to several pieces. Since this game came up, I thought I'd start a new one for Menewsha!

It's not a lot but here's a note to my future self...
Click on thumbnail for full view

And a memory from this event! I swear my dice rolls the past couple of weeks have been atrocious. If it wasn't for my expertise in Cha based skills I would have been sunk last session...
Click on thumbnail for full view

Something to play with later when I open it again (a Half Orc Bloodhunter. Not ideal but I wasn't min maxing either. I just thought it was neat!)
Click on thumbnail for full view

And finally a payment to the god of time... I have no idea what currency it accepts so I thought I'd throw in some keepsake coinage of a silver dollar, a pound and 11 pence, and a 100 franc bill my granddad gave me from the 1980s
Click on thumbnail for full view

Altogether... (I don't know why this came out so yellow...)
Click on thumbnail for full view

And nestled in a box!
Click on thumbnail for full view

I admit though... I will probably keep adding to this before I close it for good. So it's the beginning of a time capsule! Here's to the future!

TIME TO REDEEM MYSELF FOR ABANDONING BABY YAN i am so excited about this, all these challenges look really fun and they're so creative

---------- Post added 02-11-2023 at 07:36 PM ----------

oh also, question! for the Not Yet an Item challenge, can i submit a recolor/slightly altered item i began pixeling before this event? i deleted most of my progress, so really all i have right now is a sketch (it's the yellow bag i posted WIPs of in my pixel thread, but i would be changing it to a pink heart bag for this).

Hoho! I wish you better luck here in this thread

Hmm... I think that would be okay. Even in all the thinking ahead I did, this was not a situation I had considered. The idea is to have you create something. If you have already created it before the event, it does not negate the fact that you, at one time or another, did in fact create it!

Yes. I think I will allow that. As long as it is something that the site has never seen in any shop (That is to say, copying a poncho from the import shop and changing the colors would NOT be considered a new item).

I had actually totally forgotten about chance, but I have my handy dandy timer reminding me to play every 30 mins

Hoho! Time can be a bit tricky can it not? I can say I do appreciate that you want to follow the rules! This item you are talking about sounds very interesting too! I am looking forwards to seeing it

*chuckles* Bodies get a bit creaky as we age don't they? It is wonderful to be experiencing another event! I cannot wait to see what the rest of the year holds for us!

You will never know if you do not try! It is of course up to you, but I would like to encourage you to try anything on any of the lists if it sparks for you in even the smallest of ways.

Baby Xan flashbacks :O Oh my god... That had to be nearly the most fun I've had in an event thread almost ever! Except for that one time Angiexoxo murdered me in that Mafia game... *sigh...* Oh but then also the assassin games! Those were always a blast! Man... Ok I will have to see what I can do with challenge in here XD

They do don't they! Nobody warned me of this *they probably all warned her but she was in denial*

Me too! I'm so excited to have my old home back ^_^

I loved the Xan challenges, I remember my mother thought I'd lost my marbles taking little Xan everywhere. I mean, she always thinks I'm missing a marble or two, but here she thought she had proof

phew!! i feel like i entered a time warp, i've been fiddling with this for a couple hours, but i think i'm happy enough with it to submit it now! thanks to Cora: and Kent: for their advice with the initial version of this bag.

I have completed a DREAMS OF THE FUTURE task!
Description: Not Yet an Item: an over-the-shoulder heart bag that's compatible with both bases. i tried to stick to the dark red color palette commonly used in Vday EIs.
