CLOSED to Eleven - Morning of 315

[goesagainst_thegrain]

[ At some point last night, a mysterious person managed to break into Eleven's lab. They didn't leave any trace of themselves, and they didn't steal anything--but they did encase every single tool they could get their hands on in jello. They even went to the trouble of picking the lock on Eleven's safe, encasing the sonic screwdriver in jello, and locking the entire thing back up nice and tight.

Goodness knows how he managed to find the time for it all, but Six can be pretty quiet when he wants to be. So the sneakiness wasn't a problem.

Have fun with all that. ]

can you paint with all the colors of the--no, I'm sorry, nevermind | actually everywhere | open

[exloserspromise]

[At first, Steve resisted. He's not an especially mischievous fella by nature, and if he does play tricks on people they tend to be subtle and more verbal in nature.

But he couldn't stop thinking that he knew a much quicker way to make the city more colorful, which is the inspiration the curse needed to take hold. Now he's camped out in some moderately high-traffic area in your district--what better way to learn the city?--throwing eggs with the yolks dyed different colors at whichever passers-by catch his attention. Hope you weren't attached to those clothes, because it's probably gonna stain.]

HEL DISTRICT

[asgardmods]

Got Honey?

[kuramaless]

[Somewhere deep down inside, he knows that this is a recipe for disaster. It's late, he's snuck in for a reason, and equipped with a few items including a huge bottle of honey, and a funnel (he thought ahead) he's prepared to make a few changes to things in Hel house.

His main target is Uchiha Sasuke... but it's likely that a few other people might just get caught in the crossfire.

The soap dispensers are the first thing he gets to, both in the bathroom that belongs to Sasuke, and the kitchen, replacing the contents with honey. Sasuke's conditioner gets a swap too, as well as his mouthwash.

In the kitchen, however - he has other plans. Lucky charms are delicious right? Not so much if he's swapped them for a packet that have been left out in Naruto's room since this morning. Maybe Sasuke isn't the only one that eats Lucky Charms in Hel house, but he feels like he can suffer the consequences.

Somehow, he'll just escape from the house as quietly as he can-- as long as no one wakes up to his muffled chuckling.]

Black and Blue

[alternia_strength]

Equius is standing behind the counter at the gas station, watching people go by when an urge strikes him. He takes out a bag of trick candy that's unecessarily red-hot and puts it into a bowl. All individually wrapped, he stands there with a leeringly, eerily, horrific smile on his face.

This smile, for reference, is the stuff of legends. It's the kind of smile that makes people call the cops, pull out their shotgun and tell you that you've got a three-count to explain yourself or they're blowing your head off. The sign in front of the bowl says appropriately...

Free Candy. Take One.

[bestestfurrend]

Equius. Equius, you may just be forgetting who also works at the gas station. Namely, your moirail. The one with a gigantic thing for candy. And while she's been behaving for the most part and only rarely sampling the merchandise, leaving a bowl out with Free Candy written on it is too much for her to bear.

She may just be sneaking up, so absorbed in trying to grab the entire bowl that she actually misses the fact that Equius is trying to smile.

[alternia_strength]

Well, he had been hoping to make sure that said moirail with the sweet tooth would eat all the other candies he'd set out. While he attempts again to smile, his attention isn't entirely on the bowl, though he's got a big, bulky arm holding onto it. It's going to be easier to grab a couple at first instead of the whole thing...

[bestestfurrend]

Equius is apparently not that lucky. And Nepeta is apparently extremely determined to take the entire bowl. It says free! That means she can have them! She scowls up at her moirail when he refuses to let go, and freezes.

"Are you hurt?!" Because surely that is some kind of expression of pain on his face.

[alternia_strength]

Eh? Oh! There's a kitty troll looking up at him and trying to yank the bowl away. "I am attempting to smile. It is... having a mixed result," he growled. "I find it hurts my face a bit much for my tastes. You do not want these. They are painfully spicy... or so I am told."

[bestestfurrend]

"You probably need to practice a bit if you mean to start smiling! Your muscles aren't used to it..." Then she stares at him and lets go her hold on the bowl. "Spicy? Why are they spicy?! They're candy!"

BALDR DISTRICT

[asgardmods]

[tigers]

[ He doesn't even go here.

But if you're in the Baldr welcome hall, you'll see a bemuttonchopped Victorian gentleman with a gun slung over his shoulder. He enters and leaves several times, each time returning carrying a large box. If you care to take a peek inside of one while he's out, you'll find that they're full of candles.

This prank was initially meant for Pyro and Pyro alone, but Pyro isn't here. Once again, Moran's life is a failure. ]

[fantastix]

There's a fresh patch of hay left out in the grass somewhere in this park. Ordinarily it'd be an attractive place for the animals to graze, but they're wise enough to stay away. Don't worry, there are no needles in this haystack---but if someone treads across it, perhaps to reach the pile of coins left there, their weight will break the hay and they will fall...

...into the pit of crushed fruits and pudding below, as a rather smug-looking Doctor in a leather jacket and green kilt tries not to laugh.

PRANK SUBMISSIONS

[asgardmods]

Just leave your submission here, along with your character's name and their native district!

Sandy of the Sigyn District [Putting down his two major pranks in one post for neatness]

[morethanadream]

Oh God, Sandy's inner prankster has just been pinged.

Sigyn residents will wake up to some new decor in the lounge. At least the kids should have fun trying to wiggle through it?

EDITED TO ADD: Because it occurred to me that Sandy needs to make everything pretty, flowers are also growing on the slide, which people will get harmlessly tangled in when they fall through. More specifically, they're covered with extremely vivid hibiscuses, which have no thorns and will only cause inconvenience to anyone who slides into the string trap. Since he's only level one, the flowers will probably die in a day or two.

By Day 315, he'll be simultaneously angry at Jack and wanting to prank someone who deserves it, so sorry Loki house, but you're getting targeted. Don't ask him how he managed it, but in the morning, a big bunch of chickens and a ton of bird feed has been dumped in the Loki lounge. Have fun with your new birds, Loki people. (Jack, he found his cousins.)

Of course, people are free to figure him out, since he's not a very subtle person, and retribution is encouraged!

Jamie McCrimmon | Thor

[bonnypiperlad]

In what is probably the most obvious prank ever, Jamie has secretly replaced the all the Doctors (and Rory's) trousers with kilts because there are not nearly enough skirt kilt wearing men in Asgard. Luckily - or maybe unluckily - it hasn't occurred to him to make off with the underthings as well. The trousers are well and truly hidden, for right now.

He's also left a blue kilt and a shirt for the TARDIS and a kilt for River but has not hidden any of their clothing, so they have the option of wearing it or not as they choose.

While the other kilts may vary in color, one at least looks like this ...and that just happens to be the one to wind up with Six, and all of Asgard can enjoy the combination of that with his multicolored coat.

Tony Stark | Baldr

[modernmarvel]

Residents of Baldr's welcome house wanting to take the easiest way down from their rooms will find a surprise waiting for them at the bottom of each slide--kiddie pools filled with water dyed bright red (his favorite color.) The dye will stick around for a day or so, no matter how much they scrub, and eventually fade. It gives a brand new meaning to the term water slide!

(People are of course welcome to figure him out and retribution is expected!)

Steve Rogers | Sigyn

[exloserspromise]

FINALLY getting around to posting this, but yeah, Steve spent both days egging people with homemade tempera bombs. Literal egging, he made little holes in egg shells to funnel pigments in. The pigments are all made from plant matter, so there may or may not be staining, too, but the important thing here is that Steve is (temporarily) forcing the city to be a little more colorful because gray is boring.
