 ⏵ build-up to the race ⏴ Aurora has organized a competitive event, unlike missions past: an all-out build-and-race derby! This mission is all about working together (or against each other) to design, construct, and customize your ride! Show some creativity, and gain a few extra points maybe - or show some grit, and get bonus points that way! Don't worry, there's always an edge of rivalry: a few twists and tricks await to keep everyone on their toes! As of November 8th, a temporary garage has been set up close to the hospital, with bays for each team. The team assignments are: TEAM ONE Dazai, Hernan Guerra, Chrollo, Vincent TEAM TWO Katsuki Bakugo, Damian Wayne (Robin), Vash the Stampede, Barnabas Tharmr TEAM THREE John Reese, Harold Finch, Chrissy Cunningham, Sam Carpenter TEAM FOUR Castiel, Dean Winchester, Junior, Kyra Vashenko-Chao TEAM FIVE Manny, Shanks, Monkey D. Luffy, Loki TEAM SIX Dimitri Alexandre Blaiddyd, Yuri Leclerc, 6, 37 TEAM SEVEN Cloud Strife, Rufus Shinra, Sleeper, Asano Rin TEAM EIGHT Deku Midoriya, Cid Telamon, Jason Todd, Gorgug Thistlespring TEAM NINE Accelerator, Timothy Drake, Trafalgar Law, Vax'ildan TEAM TEN Octavia Blake, Mal Durrish, Wanda Maximoff, Rosie Each bay is labeled with the names of those in each team, but the plaque where the team's name would be remains blank. Instead, a marker resides beside the placard: teams must choose their name, and add it themselves. Within each bay are all the parts needed to put together a vehicle on one's own. Parts and tools are clearly labeled, and a few instruction manuals for numerous different kinds of vehicles are lying about. Each team is welcome to dive right in, but there's also a twist: special parts are available - but you have to earn them! Several Companion Bots have set up shop just outside the garage, ready to hand out everything from turbo boosters to reinforced tires. However, every special part can't be bought but has to be earned. Want a top-notch engine? Maybe a late-night group watch for any shooting stars will earn you one. Want some wicked cool brakes that make handling those curves in the road significantly easier? Maybe you and a teammate will get sent on a fun scavenger hunt for special stones scattered throughout Etraya - or maybe they'll have to commit a prank on another team to get it. Sign-ups for special parts can be found HERE - let us know what your team is looking for (shielding, brakes, tires, etc) and we'll give you a task for their team to complete to earn it! Need some direction? The Companion Bots are happy to lend a hand, even if they aren't able to directly interfere! Decorate not just your vehicles, but also the bay assigned to your team. There's plenty of paint, spare parts, and props! While Aurora and the Companion Bots provide the essential parts, it's up to the teams themselves to put together their vehicles - so have fun building! Complete mini-missions for additional, special parts, which may also assist your team in winning the race itself. Or one can always sabotage other teams in order to raise their chances of winning. The world is your oyster - have fun with it!  ⏵ you bet! ⏴ Not everyone is up for hands-on work; those that either choose to put their focus elsewhere, or maybe in addition to participating in the race, can also choose to participate in betting rounds. Set up in Harry's Hideaway Pub, a couple of the Companion Bots have set up a mini-casino, equipped with screens keeping an eye on the outside of the bays and facing the tracks that have yet to be completed. Here, you can place your bets on which team will finish their build first, who will get the best parts, and which car will have the most flair - or perhaps which will fall apart first once they're out on the track. The currency used here? The points one earns for participating in the world of Etraya and previous missions. Put down five, and earn back ten for being correct - or lose out on what you've given, if it goes that way. This is part one of our race mission! Please note the below mod-comments: Name your Team Parts Request Betting These all need to be filled out by November 14th at 4PM PST in order to be taken into consideration for the race log! If it seems as if players need a little more time, we will delay the race log out to November 20th to give more time to engage with the beginning part of this mission. Please direct all questions to our plotting post! |

[ It's one of those things that help, too, with restless hands she's found. Even though Rosie is good at occupying herself generally, she knows some people tend to need something to do with their hands while watching TV or listening to something to be able to focus better. ]
Let me show you, [ she offers, casually placing her hands atop Octavia's to guide them into doing the proper movements. She doesn't seem to think too much about it or if this might invading any kind of personal bubble or anything. ]

Huh. It's almost like we're sewing them. [ it just happens to be her first thought mostly because she has some experience in that with her mother being a seamstress even if this is a bit different ]

Yeah, a little bit! Just with the stems instead of needle and thread. But you are kind of, like, looping them together in a little weave.
Actually, you could probably make a fun little flower blanket or something if you tried.

Not sure what it has to do with driving? Maybe it's more about the, like, getting along with your teammates or bonding or. Something!

Well, there you go! I guess thinking on it, Moorecraft was all about community and working together. This one is, too, so- Yeah. A common link, for sure.
Makes me wonder how we're doing with that, in the grand scheme. Most folks seem to get along, at least?

Honestly feels like a lot of this is counter-intuitive sometimes to saving anything. [ Or maybe she's just naive. Charlie, after all, had believed the only way to save their kind was to tip the scales towards the favor of demons over humanity. Rosie had always wanted to believe there was instead a way to co-exist. But is there, actually?
She can't say. ]
I'm not really in the position to question it too much though, I guess, so I'm just doing my best.

Makes me wonder still why they picked me of all of them to end up here, but I'm also not necessarily complaining. I've learned a lot being here.

Also, I think... She's kind of limited in what she can tell us anyway? From what I've heard. Whether just her 'programming' or what, I'm not sure, but it doesn't seem to get very far when trying to communicate with her.
