DAY 2: MAY 10TH.  Quote: => MAIN POST =>DAILY CHOICE DAY 1 RESULTS Let's see how your two ice stars are getting along! Beautiful & Beautiful +0 points - The two beautiful gerbils begin to compete with each other immediately upon being lashed together without warning!! They bite and scream at each other and you, finding it simply reprehensible to be in this position. Beautiful & Cute +2 points - The beautiful and cute gerbil lash together in a ball of adorableness, the likes of which has never been seen. They manage to cohabitate fairly well! Beautiful & Smart +1 point - The smart gerbil is able to worm its way into a comfortable and advantageous position while the beautiful gerbil preens. The effect is promising!! Beautiful & Spirited +0 points - The beautiful and spirited gerbil together are an awkward looking pair – the energy of the two is a bit unbalanced and getting them to stay together is rough. Cute & Cute +3 points - The two cute gerbils are tied together and immediately you feel the universe cracking from the adorableness of these little puffs being smushed together. No one should have this much power. Cute & Smart +0 points - Trying to lash together the smart gerbil and the cute gerbil is embarrassing, as the smart gerbil kicks and smudges and is generally dissatisfied with its place next to the cute gerbil – therefore making the cute gerbil whine and squeal in a very uncute manner. Cute & Spirited +2 points - The cute and spirited gerbil spring together almost immediately! The perfect opportunity arises to tie them up and you do so as they whirl around eachother like a little gerbil flail. Smart & Smart +0 points - Two smart gerbils know that they do NOT want to be lashed together, and begin to concoct a plan to escape. Smart & Spirited +1 point - The smart gerbil rejects the spirited gerbil, which won’t stop moving. Fortunately, this means that you simple have to pick up the smart gerbil and tie it to the other. Spirited & Spirited +3 points - In lashing the two spirited gerbils together you feel proud of your amalgamate gerbil combination. They flop, roll over on each other and will certainly have no problem moving on the ice! GERBIL DANCING DAY 2 Before you head onto the ice, you should dress your gerbils! A bizarre loophole in the rules signifies that they must be in complimentary outfits. Oh well! You go over to the tiny gerbil wardrobe supplied by NummCorp and take your pick. 1) Long gerbil gowns, studded with sequins and rhinestones 2) Silly hats! Otherwise, nude gerbils. 3) Little gerbil sweaters – for fashion and comfort! 4) Fashionable, dramatic attire – capes and masks galore =>SUBMISSION CODE [quote="Hivestuck"][align=center][img]http://bit.ly/23aMQhq[/img][/align] [b]My name is:[/b] yernamehere [b]I am in team:[/b] yerbloodcolorhere

DAY 1: F7 +0 points - You search your zone, colloquially called the Piddly Ponds for their dimunitive nature and the fact that Alternian fauna of the area manage to stink up the waterbeds like no other. H4 +2 points - There's no sign of the winterbeast in the Wanderlust Foothills, but you do find a really quite interesting clue...! L2 +3 points - The Banded Waterways are an intruiging point of interest, offering an interesting geological look at the rock and silt that have caused unique formations in the riverbed. You manage to spot some huge footprints in the moist sand to boot, and snag a picture for some points! N4 +1 point - Your retreat to the lake serves to offer a bit of respite from the hunt, but unfortunately there aren't any signs of your target here. You make do with collecting some various hair samples around the area. L8 +4 points - At the crook of the twisting river you find an intriguing spot in the moist loam! Some creature has apparently bathed itself here and rubbed off on the tall rocks leading to the crags nearby. There are telling horn marks as well as some muddy fur here and there, with a smudged handprint on a rock. Jackpot!

 Chiara was on a hunt. A winterbeast hunt. She once again thanked fate for her favorite combat boots. They warmed her legs and she was able to stomp through the snow and ice no problems. The blueblood had on a nice blue fur coat, made from some other stupid beast no doubt. It annoyed Chiara how she was still relying on some animal for warmth and survival. After Indica she was supposed to be past that. Chiara shook her head, she didn't want to start thinking about the dead quill-beast, it was a slippery slope. Briefly the blueblood wondered why this snow and ice was even still here. Wasn't it supposed to be freakishly hot during the day? All this ice should be gone! The blueblood mumbled to herself in annoyance, and stopped to get her barrings. Yep, it was ice and snow for miles, tracking would be hard in this weather. Chiara sighed and pulled out a spy glass. Maybe this tool would help her find the beast. The blueblood rotated in spot, surveying the land. The spyglass was nice, but there was just too many miles of white snow for her to really- wait. Was that a figure to the west. Chiara immediately hiked in that direction, hoping it was the beast and not just some other troll. Hivestuck My name is: Chiara I am in team: Blue! I am exploring: F12

Hivestuck My name is: Opimus Fellah I am in team: red My couple is: Jazzercise (beautiful) Ginger (smart) I choose option: 2. Silly hats My current score is: +1 Fellah watched the gerbils skitter, skate? Skitter skate, around the ice, tied to one another. Ginger seemed to be leading the team while Jazzercise preened. They were still hecka adorable. When it came to attire the redblood went straight for the silly hats. Who in Alternia does not like silly hats? Well, probably plenty of trolls, but that wasn't the point. If nothing else, the silly hats would hopefully let the gerbils keep their full range of motion, and not throw them off balance too terribly much. One of the hats that he picked out was adorned with every feather imaginable, and several that no one would have probably ever imagined. It looked like a creature...wait, it was a creature, at one point anyhow. Who could tell what it was, all that mattered was the fact it was a hat now. The second hat he chose, had some sort of optical illusion pattern drawing you in. The farm troll spent a little too much time staring at this one. Jazzercise looked devastated when Fellah put the feathered one on Ginger, so with squeals of protest, he quickly switched them, glad that Ginger didn't seem to have a preference one way or another. Hivestuck My name is: Opimus Fellah I am in team: red I am exploring: F 12 So last night did not take a turn in the redbloods favor. After trekking with Papabuff at the end of the night, Fellah wound up without so much as a clue about the winterbeast. He did however find some rather pungent plants and animals. Being the easily distracted farmer he was, Fellah spent a while perusing the flora for any new or unusual crops he might be able to take back and cultivate at his farm. The next night, after he was sufficiently satisfied with the Bloodfest events, he decided to head out on the hunt again. Deciding to let lady luck take the wheel, Fellah covered his eyes with a hand and blindly pointed at a plot on the map, the closest location where his finger fell was where he decided to investigate, F 12. "Well Papabuff, ready to give this another go?" Fellah asked the massive buffaboar lusus, who seemed rather bored with the whole thing already. Regardless, after packing up the necessities, the farm troll took off with his wagon again to see what could be found. The plot he chose once again looked, unassuming, but Fellah still held out hope that he would luck out in one of the more unimpressive areas.

Hivestuck My name is: Lorata Gorgos I am in team: Purple My couple is: Euryale (Smart) and Stheno (Spirited) I choose option: 4 My current score is: 1 Euryale and Stheno, apparently, didn't like the idea of figure skating with each other as much as Lorata had. While Stheno wiggled around with uncontrollable energy, Euryale refused to have anything to do with her, plopping down where she was instead. On the one hand, this didn't bode well for teamwork. On the other, it made it much easier to force them together when she could just pick up Euryale so easily and get the ties roped around them both. Once done, she the seadweller took a moment to consider her work. Stheno, still jumping around, and Euryale, forced to follow or be dragged. They were ready.
Well, almost ready. She still needed to get them all dressed up for the competition. The judges wouldn't like them at all if they just went out there all plain, where was the magic there? Luckily there were costumes on offer for contestants and with some added accessories from the spare materials she'd nabbed from the booth she'd been helping with, she was able to really dress them up. The gowns had been so pretty and tempting, but gerbils had a lot of legs and needed them freer than that to skate, obviously. So instead she went for dramatic, masks and capes and all. Hivestuck My name is: Faithe Keeper (Etsali Azeban) I am in team: Orange I am exploring: I11 Current Points: 4 Etsali had been following the twisted river for what seemed like ages, but finally she was sure she'd arrived at the point that had been marked on her map. As she first approached, she hadn't been sure there was anything different about it at all, animals came through places like this all the time, didn't they? How would she know the difference between some normal beast and the winterbeast's tracks? Had...had the booth even shown examples of what exactly kind of tracks she was looking for? Suddenly she found she couldn't remember.
Well, whatever she was looking for, she'd certainly found something here. It sort of looked like some larger creature had been here, bathing in the river maybe? She couldn't imagine how cold it must have been in there, but...But that was definitely left by something with horns, and there was fur all over the place and...Ah! What was that? Was that a handprint? She scrambled for her camera and snapped a few pictures of it all, pausing when she was done to consider the way the marks seemed to move away into the crags.
Well now. That certainly seemed like a trail to follow, didn't it? She glanced over map to get her bearings, then started off.

Hivestuck My name is: Doradi Xplora (Tevini Euruft) I am in team: purpleblood (actually red but disguised) My couple is: Steamtrain Express (smart) & The Milkman (cute) I choose option: 3 (cute sweaters) My current score is: 0 Tevini bit her lip as the gerbils began to protest being tied together. Their relationship reminded her of her relationship with Cerpin. Weren't opposites supposed to attract? Shoot, this wasn't looking good. Still she wasn't going to give up on Steamtrain Express. She still felt a closeness to the gerbil for its intelligence. If only she could get it to understand what she needed it to do! She didn't think The Milkman had any higher intelligence to it thought it was certainly cute. Was it's cuteness growing on her a little? She supposed so. But it was time to focus on more important matters, such as more preparation.
Oh well, the next step was to outfit the gerbils with a stage costume. Averse to the glitz and glam of the gowns and capes, Tevini settled on the cozy looking sweaters. It was cold so she felt it morally wrong to make them skate around naked with only hats on. Yes this was the only kind option she could choose. Submitting her form to get the costumes from NummCorp, the girl wondered how she was going to fare when the performance came. She wasn't really known for her dazzling skills and certainly couldn't impart anything on to her little subjects.Hivestuck My name is: Nucleo Glatte I am in team: greenblood I am exploring: I11 While they didn't find very many clues at the lake, Nucleo was pleased that Amonee had managed to take a few hair samples. It was a little relaxing to hang around the lake and he found himself not minding slow start. This was just for fun, he didn't care if they actually managed to find the winterbeast. At least that's what he told himself at the time. Smiling over at his friend with a goofy grin, he was just happy to get to climb around through the wilderness with his buddy. It was too bad they hadn't thought to bring Xavier! Next time they went out they would have to bring him along for sure!
For now they were ambling along the field when they reached the edge of a plateau. Squinting at the area, he looked to see if there were any signs of a creature coming through lately but ultimately couldn't tell. It was so hard when there were other trolls participating in the hunt as well. It was kind of neat how there was a ridge forming underneath though. He wanted to check it out but was nervous about how he'd get down. With all this snow he would be sliding a lot more than normal. Plus Amonee probably wouldn't let him after he'd dropped off a cliff in front of him previously.

Hivestuck My name is: Natash Boelli I am in team: Purple My couple is: Janderbilt (cute) + Jazzercise (beautiful) I choose option: 1 My current score is: 2 The two gerbils seemed to really be getting along! Gnash was pleased to find that out, because it was kind of hard to get them tied together. Now, she had to dress them up! She decided that pretty gerbil dresses would be the best thing, because they were cute and beautiful gerbils! They would look lovely in rhinestones and sparkles and fun clothes.

Hivestuckxx My name is: Dianea Caldon (Luxara Seleni) I am in team: """Yellow""" My couple is: Li'l Cap (Spirited) & Pennii (Cute) I choose option: 3 My current score is: +2 Her gerbils were buddies, but it was still surprising that they meshed so well for this event. Luxara was not only glad, but thrilled! If they kept up the wonderful teamwork, she would have this in the bag for sure. Next...she looked over the directions. She had to dress them up? The 'yellowblood' blinked. Gerbils in clothing. Well, okay then! They did look cold anyway. She looked over the outfits available, trying to judge despite spending her entire life lifting clothes off of dead trolls. Even so, some of these choices seemed utterly ridiculous! Too ridiculous for her tastes, even; Dianea might be into it actually, but Luxara was here to win. A persona only meant so much until there was a trophy involved. She had only won a copper trophy before, so it was safe to up the ante this time around.
But, really, long flowing gowns? That didn't seem practical! They were supposed to be able to move, right?
In the end, Luxara took the simple route, going with a pair of sweaters. Her gerbils would need all the help they could get, warmth-wise, and it would probably look cute, to boot! Win-win situation all around, she could feel it! Hivestuckxx My name is: Dianea Caldon (Luxara Seleni) I am in team: """Yellow""" I am exploring: I-11 Well, it seemed that scoping the lake out gave her diddly. Luxara tasted some bitter disappointment in the back of her mouth; but at the same time, she knew she wasn't going to win on the first night. It would've been nice, but unlikely. She expected a little more than her results after all the time she spent at the location, though. There was nothing more than just some hair samples. No tracks, nothing. Some hair wasn't enough to give her a better idea of what she was dealing with. But, if anything, it had been there at some point, and even something almost useless was better than zip.
It's not like she was going to give up from a near failure anyway! Onto round two! This time, she decided that she was going to check out some of the mountains. The terrain wasn't her favorite, but it couldn't hurt to check it out. Maybe there would be a vantage point from up high. Even if she didn't find any outright clues, she might have a better idea of the area for the following night. A better resource for her than just a map! Luxara took her crossbow and trekked into the snow once more, trying to ignore her sore feet. Couldn't they make 'pretty' booths that were a bit better about working with any surface that wasn't flat and smooth?

Hivestuck My name is: Mickey Yensid (Cerpin Sugall) I am in team: Yellow My couple is: Steamtrain Express (smart) & Exiled Warrior (Spirited) I choose option: 4) Fashionable, dramatic attire – capes and masks galore My current score is: 1 Getting the gerbils tied together was not an easy feat. Mostly because Exiled Warrior refused to hold still! Cerpin chased the gerbil around with his hands for a while before giving up and realizing he ought to focus on getting Steamtrain Express outfitted in a harness first and then deal with the other one. Hopefully it would have tired itself out by that point. Once the two were finally linked together, it was time to dress them. The purpleblood took a while to muse over the aesthetic he wanted to go with.
There were just so many options! Cerpin eyed the various outfits available for his precious gerbil team with intense seriousness. Should he appeal to what he liked or what the judges were sure to enjoy? The highblood was naturally pulled towards the flashy and gaudy capes. They were just so dramatic- like himself! Steamtrain Express didn't seem like it would allow him to put the costumes on it easily but he didn't care. This was happening whether the gerbil liked it or not. He was a visionary.
"You two look fantastic. You'll be the envy of every gerbil out there!" The overly confident boy let out a cocky laugh at the brilliance of his whole scheme. The two gerbils truthfully did not look particularly different than the rest of the other contestants, other than the rhinestone he had glued to the ends of the capes, but to him they were the most glamorous creatures he'd seen.Hivestuck My name is: Amonee Brycer I am in team: Green I am exploring: I11 Points: 1 The cold bothered his nose but Amonee was not going to let that stop him! Nucleo trudged along beside him through the snow and the jadeblood couldn't help but laugh at how flushed their faces were from the weather. This was what he loved most about adventuring, the memories made during the journey. It had been a slow start with only a few fur samples but that fact didn't bother him. He took a breath and began the trek up the plateau in front of them. The walk had been pleasant so far but the incline was about to get sharper. A good challenge for the two young trolls!
Beautiful nature, good company and a jar of hot soup in his pocket. He really couldn't ask for more! Though it would've been nice to bring a few more friends along. Maybe sometime they could do a camping trip get together. He rubbed his hands together for warmth as they surveyed the area.
"Watch the edge there." Nucleo was peering slightly over a ridge and Amonee's hand darted forward to grab the back of the other boy's shirt. No way was he letting him topple over another cliff if he could help it! The jadeblood let go only once his friend laughed and reassured him he wasn't going to do anything risky. With that, the two boys went back to work investigating the place for clues. Was that a track? Hmm, it looked more like another troll's footprint. Maybe that over there was a shelter for it to sleep in? Or it could've been just a random collection of rocks. Oh the possibilities!

Hivestuck My name is: Kolako Thelsi I am in team: redblood My couple is: The Milkman (Cute) and Twinkie Heart (Spirited) I choose option: 3 My current score is: 2 Kolako was so excited and thankful that her gerbils got along well, petting both of them softly and nuzzling into them as she tied them together. An excited squeal slid out of her as she watched them whirl and swivel around each other, loud giggles erupting from her throat as they enjoyed their time and were practically glued together. Koko then realized they need clothes to go out on the ice, for it'd be too cold and icy to not do so. Her eyes glazed over the options-- Dresses?? Rhinestones??? What would they need that stuff for, if they were going to move around?? The hats would do nothing to make them warm on the ice, and while dramatic capes and hats and everything would be definitely CUTE, Kolako felt herself more drawn to the sweaters than to the other-- Cute, and practical!! Which was good for the cold weather they were all currently in. While they were already warm bitty things, she figured they could use a little more warmth! She grabbed two of them, carefully sliding them onto the two adorable little things and giving them each a fond rub between the ears, and then sliding it for under their wrinkly, soft chins. Koko needed to find some of these, man!
Hivestuck My name is: Austri Coriol I am in team: Greenblood I am exploring: 11I My current score is: 4 Operation Winterbeast hunt was going very well so far, if Austri had to say so herself! They had been traveling through the woods like any good bounty hunter would be and then, they found... marks. Austri immediately zoomed in on them when she saw them, rushing over and being careful to not startle the area. She quickly snapped a picture of what was, goal feeling closer than before due to her amazing searching skills. She observed the muddy fur and hand print eagerly, trying to find a way to track the marks, but not finding anything that might've been of value. Hmm. Staglebro was bored, of course, but she didn't really care at this point-- They were already too deep in the forest to get out now without something sort of a day trip. She was thankful she didn't need to over exert herself-- Considering Staglebro was something like a "guardian" to her, he had to do what she said, duh! She inspected the map carefully, tapping the spots on it before finally settling on one that seemed within the same range and the last one. It was as good a guess as any, she hoped-- She didn't have enough to go off of, anyways! This was sure to be right!

Chiara was a little late to event, and picked out two furry balls from the pens. Now it was time to dress them. Chiara looked over each item of attire carefully. She picked up a gerbil gown and looked it over. Well, it was pretty, that was for sure. Also looked like it would get in the way of absolutely everything. Chiara put that particular item down. Chiara picked up the little masks and gloves. Well, they were better than the dresses, but the masks looked like they would encumber the small beasts more than they would look good. Chiara did put the gloves on her fingers. They were just so small, it was adorable. Chiara put down the masks and gloves and picked up one of the hats. It was an improvement from the gowns for sure, but Chiara was only mildly interested in how they looked. As the blueblood picked up a sweater she knew what she had to choose. Like her boots, the sweaters were stylish AND functional. Just what the blueblood wanted. Chiara dressed her furry little beasts and stepped back to appraise them. "Allright guys!" The blueblood said, starting up a pep talk. "Get out there and skate!" Hivestuck My name is: Chiara Moteku I am in team: Blue My couple is: Cute & Spirited I choose option: 3 My current score is: 0

Hivestuck My name is: Xionek Heronn (Keionx Rutace) I am in team: Orange I am exploring: B11 Keionx started the hunt a little late, having spent a good bit of her time checking up on the rebels and swamplings that were attending the festival. She was having fun, but she also had a duty to them that she, hero that she was, could not deny. That said, they seemed to be getting into an acceptable and fun amount of trouble, nothing she needed to step in about (though she was worried about Akkira, but there was always reason to worry about Akkira and the little redblood was tough as nails). Anyway, Keionx had participated in bloodfests for a good chunk of her life, and since this one involved exploring, it was right up her alley. As an attuned explorer, hunter, and slayer of beasts, Kei knew she had an advantage... yes, those beasts were sometimes wimpy lizard monsters or rabbits, but that was not the issue here. She still caught them, and this was her next prey. So she hunted it. She chose a spot and stomped over icy flats. She paused at clear blue pools. She climbed chill hills and looked out over the wastes and looking very heroic and capable in her warm cloak and scarf and such. And lonely. But it was hard to give up exploring alone, even though she was surrounded by people she cared about. Even though she wanted to explore with them, it just seemed... easier... to do it herself. After some exploring, she took a break to mull over what she'd found...

Hivestuck My name is: Alifax Bunsem I am in team: Red My couple is: Cheese Platter (smart) and Decorative Salad (beautiful) I choose option: 4 My current score is: 1 Alifax stared flatly. This was the stupidest requirement he'd ever heard. Then again, this contest ranked pretty high up there on the Stupidity Scale, too. He had to keep the prize in mind, though. Clearly they wanted something interesting looking - and clearly those full length dresses were only going to have his tiny beasts tripping all over themselves. The hats would fall off. The sweaters were too much of a bother to put on. So the answer was the obvious one: capes and masks. Capes, at least, could be fastened securely, and if masks fell off it would be a dramatic reveal of the gerbils' true character. Or something. Hivestuck My name is: Alifax Bunsem I am in team: Red I am exploring: E 15 He slept in a tent for the day, fortunately accustomed to the low quality of soporifics. He certainly remembered having to water his own down, for lack of supply. Then Alifax set out again - as far south as he could manage. He still had no idea what he was looking for. How big had those tracks been? He guessed he should try and see something that looked approximately the right shape. What was a winterbeast supposed to be? Had his tracks even been the right sort? He pulled his spare FLARP costume tighter around his body and trekked on. At least he could light his own ******** fires, although he realized belatedly that they might contribute to melting snow. That was probably not for the best. Was it just someone important at NummCorp's stray lusus? That would figure, actually - Alifax really couldn't think what else a 'winterbeast' might be, that it was so important. With any luck the photograph he'd taken was related to the right lusus, then. It'd be pretty funny if they were just some random craters. In the snow. But in that case maybe Frossa would be excited by it? Alifax didn't know. He wasn't much of one for aesthetic attractions; the interesting view he'd found held nothing for him. Actually, he was beginning to regret this undertaking. It looked like hunting skills were completely irrelevant. Here he'd wanted to prove himself, and all. Well - the prize had better be worth it, was what he was implying. 3 points!

Hivestuck My name is: Elidae Bonbon I am in team: Yellow! My couple is: Janderbilt (spirited) and Twinkie Heart (cute) I choose option: 3 My current score is: 2 pts
It didn't take a whole lot of waiting, but the two gerbils finally found each other. They really did. Elidae could just see the sparkling twinkle in their eyes, the immediate signs of pity blooming despite the freezing weather conditions. It was perfect. Well, not exactly perfect. But it was basically almost there. The way they spun around together when Elidae finally managed to tie them together was basically the most adorable thing she had ever seen. Clapping excitedly, Elidae realized that they needed to wear costumes! Ooooh! She got to pick out tiny outfits?! She greatly considered the tiny hats- they were just... so tiny! But Elidae was concerned about them flying off while they were on the ice. What if they accidentally tripped on them? The beautiful sequin outfits also caught her eye, but wouldn't that be super uncomfortable? Even if they would look amazing on the ice, Elidae definitely wanted her gerbils to be happy!
Either way, it wasn't until she saw the mini sweaters that Elidae immediately made her decision. She basically slammed down the gavel. It would be a sweater party. After wiggling the sweaters on the tiny furbeasts, she stood back and admired her handy work. Oh my gog, they looked so dang cute wiggling on the ice together.
Hivestuck My name is: Malice Ragoon I am in team: Blue I am exploring: F12
Trudging through the snow, Malice's legs began to feel stiff as she felt the freezing water soak her leggings. She would tough it out. Not like she couldn't withstand anything similar on Busthind, as she did this kind of thing all the time. The lake was obviously a great choice, but for some reason, there just wasn't any kind of hint, trail, .Well, she did find something. Tiny tuffs of hair! Hah! What would she even do with these. She couldn't smell a damn thing out here. Besides, did they even belong to this so-called "winterbeast"? As she continued on her trek, Malice slowly grew suspicious that this was all just a ploy. Maybe they were trying to off them, one by one. Another set of trials for the trolls silly enough to believe.
To her side, her mammoth lusus dawdled at a leisure pace. Swooping his down, he side eyed his charge, a huge grin curling. Just the look alone had Malice enraged. She stomped faster, hands balled into fists, yet the effort was fruitless, considering he only needed to take one or two steps to easily catch up to her. Any other troll would her size of a lusus could probably ask to hitch a ride. He probably could have flown up and take aerial ground. But no. She had to have been imprinted by some huge bulgesucker.
They continued on the next day, passing through a mountain range and ending up near a few pools of water at the base of the mountain. The steepness of the area was drastic and perilous, but Malice kept her eyes peeled to her surroundings. She passed through dense shrubbery, stepping forward carefully. Then, suddenly, her foot slipped, and she began to fall forward. "Wh-WHOAA-" Hanging by the hook of her lusus' claw, Malice tried to steady her breaths. She glanced down at the dark abyss below her, pusher thumping hard against her exoskeleton. Then, she was tossed back onto solid ground. Her lusus continued walking, sniggering.
'Try to look next time.'
Malice sniffed, casting a sharp glare to the ground. "I was looking..."

Hivestuck My name is: Leeroi Furore I am in team: Blue My couple is: Rocket (Cute), Snake (Smart) I choose option: 4 My current score is: 0 "Aw come on guys, I thought you were better than this," Leeroi pouted, trying his best to wrap the gerbils together "I picked you guys intentionally, I believed in you. And now you're making me look like an idiot". "And Rocket, seriously dude? That hacking noise is not going to impress anyone," He complained, crossing his arms in a huff. "You're supposed to be professionals. You've got the goods, you've just got to get along, is it really that difficult??" He sneered, taking a step back. "I'm going to get your costumes. You better be behaving by the time I get back." He said, giving an ultimatum, not that they'd probably listen. But if they did, Leeroi would give them treats to encourage good behavior. Now, what to wear? A lot of the options were unacceptable for his specific set of gerbils. A long gown would look lovely on Snake, but it would interfere with Rocket's rockets. And silly hats would cover up Rocket's cute mohawk. And that was the selling point to his cuteness, really. So what that left were sweaters and capes. It was an easy choice at that point. Leeroi's gerbils were super gerbils and they deserved to be dressed as such. Hivestuck My name is: Stemma Morgen I am in team: Purple I am exploring: E15 (2 points) Wow, there sure was a lot to see! Stemma thought, almost forgetting her task. It would be nice to take a camping trip up here with Krampa, maybe a friend, too? Or perhaps it'd be better to wait for better weather. Snowy weather was fine for hunting winterbeasts, but not for educative purposes. But the crisp open air sure made Stemma feel wonderful, refreshing her despite how tired she'd gotten from walking. Exploring was typically fine, but hiking was taking a toll on her tiny legs. "I wonder what the winterbeast looks like," Stemma asked, walking besides Krampa, who had been trudging through the snow to allow Stemma to keep up beside him. "Will he be friendly or monstrous?" A thought crossed her mind, face lighting up with joy. She turned to her lusus, smiling. "Maybe both, like you Krampa!" She giggled, tugging at her lusus' hand. He squeezed her hand back, though very gently. "I hope that's the case," She added, turning her attention back to the path. She planned on walking pretty far today, to cover as much ground as possible. Today she'd check around some of the smaller ponds on the southwest edge of the provided map, a secluded spot for water, fitting for a winterbeast.

Hivestuck My name is: Lutrin Weesil I am in team: Orange My couple is: The Milkman (Cute), and Twinkie Heart (Spirited) I choose option: 4) Masks and capes! My current score is: 2 Unfortunately the beret, moustache, and accent were back. Fortunately, they were... she was... No, there was no upside to this. Lutrin's method acting had gone too far and she needed to be stopped. There was little a couple of mute gerbils could do though. They were powerless to stop her. Also they didn't seem to mind. Clapping her hands in front of her mouth, Lutrin could not help but let out a squeal as the Milkman and Twinkie Heart rolled around on the floor. She did not care what anyone said. She had picked the best couple. They were destined to be together. With names like the Milkman and Twinkie Heart how could they not be. Suddenly she slapped herself. "Focus Lutrin! Stay in character! They need you." She took a deep breath, inhaling the spirit of the hoity-toity fashionista-slash-barber-matchmaker-slash-diva-slash-folliculaphiliac. As she did her beret grew twice as fluffy and her moustache three times as curly. And her accent... "Magnifiquetico creazhures!" she called to the gerbils. Her accent became four times as obnoxious. "Vhat should you like to wear, mmmm?!" Regarding the rodents, she stroked her chin thoughtfully. "Somezhing not too classique. Not too... 'hip-hop'." With emphatic mock disdain, she surrounded the word with air quotes. Even as she drew out her decision though, she could not help but let out a giggle. She already knew exactly what her two dancers were going to wear. Suddenly, she thrust a finger into the air. "Le gasp!!" she cried and then chimed musically, " Ideeeaaaaaa~!" Diving into the wardrobe, she retrieved a bundle of capes. Her moustache curled even tighter with glee. "You shall be... super-heroes!!" Bobbing up and down with excitement, she looked to the gerbils for their validation.
