 You come to a booth, much like a booth from the past, with the wafting smell of baked goods and sugar and spice. The booth promises a treat to warm your bones... if you dare. Also, it seems to be selling a few baked goods too. A baby swampbeast lusus wanders nearby, looking for dropped goodies with a vacant, open mouth. "Hey hey hey! You want some HOT CHOCOLATE? Totally FREE?! You're feeling the chill of this late perigee's night aren't you? Then come get a nice HOT drink and win a ticket!" The preteen redblood yells, trying to draw you in. Cerise's eyes, like usual, are manic and a huge grin is plastered on her face. "Take your chances! If you pick right, you'll just get a delicious warm treat AND a ticket. If not, you get a chute-burning spicefest made with THE HOTTEST PEPPERS I COULD FIND! Ehehehehe!!" She cackles and gestures to the assortment of paper cups. Will you dare...?

Prizes! The real reason you're here. Unless you just want a snack. Raffle tickets! There's three to be given out each day, as outlined. Get a safe shot of hot chocolate, amuse Cerise with your reaction, or get lucky at the end of the day! The Antidote. For just a few measly beetles, a tall, cold glass of musclebeast milk is yours, perfect for dousing the fire in your chute. (Gently) Spiced CupcakeIf you remember her booth last year and the delicious cupcakes, perhaps you'd like to purchase one, or a few! This one's a bit more reasonable on its spice level, and has a yummy pepper on top. Box of Four (4) CupcakesIt seems like a regular box of normal cupcakes. Which maybe is boring to you? Or maybe that's exciting because you didn't like the spicy ones. A very reasonable price for delicious Bloodfest treats. Reasonably Spiced Hot Chocolate-based Beverage (Regular Size)If you liked the drink (or lucked out and got a normal one of these) and want some more, Cerise is selling! Just a handful of beetles for a hot, spiced drink, perfect for the cold nights. It's warm and made with troll cinnamon and some mild troll peppers. Fresh Hot Winter CookiesOr if none of the offered sweets are your style, there's also a plate of cookies being offered for free to anyone who places a bakery order, which seem reasonably safe. Probably. Anyway, they're complimentary for patrons of her bakery. Maybe you'll want to buy a glass of milk too? (wink wink)

==> Rules o1. Caima is watching! And eating your trash! No cheating. One roll per day, no deleting, etc. o2. You have to drink the whole thing! It's only a tiny little dixie cup of drink so you big babies don't need to choke for hours. o3. A sentence written minimum is required to count! Just a real quick "Mule downed the shot in one fell swoop."
==> How to Play o1. Every day, I'll roll a 1D12, and the resulting number is the number to try and get, because that means you didn't get an ultra-spicy drink! o2. You roll a 1D12, and you get one roll a day. o3. It is first come, first serve on this. Sorry! There's other ways to win. o4. If no one wins the number, there'll be two raffled tickets, and one chosen for "best reaction", which either means you wrote something funny, or witty, or silly, and the reaction amused Cerise! o5. The prizes are free, just take one, assuming ICly you want your troll to have purchased it. It's very reasonably priced though! (But OOCly I don't care lol, it's just fun flavor text for Cerise's blatant advertisement for her bakery). o6. If you actually want to interact with Cerise during the booth, just quote me in your post and I'll make the effort to have her say hi and laugh in their face! Perfect for if you're placing a bakery order, or want to get your troll in her good graces for later. C:

Bloodfest was finally here and Fellah made sure to come early. With his wagon secured just outside the festivity grounds he began to wander his way through the maze of booths, giving smiles to any passing trolls.
The wafting smells of confectionery treats did a good job at reeling the farm troll into Cerise's booth first. His eyes lit up at all the baked goods, "Well dang, everything here looks delicious!" It was hard for him not to go straight for the cupcakes, but he managed to try some of the secret spiced hot chocolate first. "Holy moly!" The redblood exclaimed, a slight lisp from a burning tongue. Though rather than doing the smart thing and going for some milk, Fellah fished out some beetles frantically for a box of cupcakes, quickly shoving one into his face, looking blissful. He wasn't unused to spicy foods, but some peppers can really pack a wallop.

It was hard to believe it had been so long since the last Bloodfest. Reemus, er- Toothy, couldn't believe it. The booth stands were so much lower than he remembered. And it was cold. Couldn't make sand castles in this weather! But he was warm, and that was what mattered. He could see his breath, but he wasn't freezing. That was nice.
He made his way among the booths, hands in his coat pockets. He kept his face in his scarf as much as possible. His scars were hidden by makeup and sealant, but he was still self-conscious about it. At least they could hide the burn wounds. Not much could be done about the eye besides putting on some glasses. It didn't really help his vision. Good thing Vos- Sparky was there, too.
A familiar sign caught his good eye, though. He took a sharp breath. The cupcake lady was back!"Sparky, Sparky, we gotta go to this one!" He grabbed Voscil's hand and pulled her along to Hot Shots. He smiled under, and slightly over, his scarf at the warm items on display. Cupcakes! Cookies! Hot chocolate! It all smelled so, so good...
But he had to pretend he hadn't played this game before. He forced his brows down to look a little confused. "Oh, they can be spicy. Well, I like spicy!" He took a cup, with a flourish one could almost call dramatic.
With that, the 'blueblood' downed an entire cup of steaming cocoa in one go. Rich, burning his throat, and...
His eyes started to water. Hot. Very hot. He grit his teeth and nearly crushed the cup in his hand with the pained tension. "Love it. Wouldn't want anythin' wimpy anyway." He tried not to beg for milk.
Forcing on a smile, he turned to Voscil with another cup. "Would ya like to try some, Mizz Sparks?"leon_a_darkangel He's not crying, it's a melted snowflake on his cheek

"Oho, competition!" Strolling through the booths of Bloodfest, Nucleo brightened at the sight of another hot beverage stand. He didn't seriously mean they were competing against each other but thought it'd be fun to see what the booth was about. Looking over the different cups, he didn't pay much heed to any warnings about it being a game and simply thought they were samples. Grabbing one, the boy leaned against the counter to talk to the owner.
"Hey! I'm Nucleo and I run the-" sip "Agh!" The greenblood sputtered and felt his eyes well up.
"What's in that?!"

Voscil had come to the cold wintery event with the hopes of having some kind of fun to brighten up life. Gloved hands held onto her tall friends hands as her boots crunched snow under her feet. Her redblood disguise was coined to help her blend in without fear of being ratted out. Sparky Hanabi was a powered troll, with a firework patch for a symbol. She built around the fact her powers were explosive, and sparking, hence the name. It had been so long since Bloodfest! She couldn't believe it was already that time of year again. While last year was warmer, and she'd been nothing but a kid running her own card booth it still warmed her spirits to be at such a lively event. The now rebel turned troll however was not here on official business, she just wanted to get her and Reemus out of the swamp and try and give him something to be excited about. She still felt responsible for the burns Reemus had endured on her account. For what it was worth, Vos tried her best to support him. There would never be a time when she let others fight for her, without her standing by their side. Her other hand pushed into her jacket in the hopes of keeping warm. Her breathe was visible occasionally as a fine mist. "Oi, Toothy watchya find?" Her nose sniffed, the scent of baked goods absolutely delighted the troll. They were her favorite..and weakness all wrapped up into one. "Oh man!" She gasped excitedly, happily joining the other as she appeared at his side her eyes locked on one of the steaming cups of cocoa. "Why yes I would, thanks pal." She grinned reaching for a cup. Uh oh. Was this that same booth last year where sometimes stuff atomically spicy? She gulped, knowing she needed to pretend like she'd never seen the both before. The 'redblood' glanced around before quickly knocking back her drink. It was hot. Oh man was it spicy, she about howled in dismay as she released Reemus's palm and bounced around fanning at her tongue. 'Sparky' didn't mind letting off a few electrical pops of her psionics in protest. The troll squealed in protest, wailing all while fanning her tongue dramatically. "Oh that's so yummy...but oooooowcch that's spicy! Holy moobeasts." She pouted, fishing out a few beetles in order to procure some of the moobeast antidote offered. Half of it was knocked back before the lower redblood offered her blueblood friend the rest before she finished it off. Gl!tch~. it's okay i won't tell if you don't.

Sarcel was, in fact, feeling a little bit of a chill. She was also in quite the hurry; she'd never tried this whole booth business, but it seemed like a good way to promote herself (and maybe have some fun?), but it sure was demanding being there all day trying to make sure that no one died.
And then there's this. She could smell the cocoa from a mile away; it was free? Alright, there had to be a catch, she could tell.
Locking eyes with the booth owner as she took a sip, she figured it out immediately. It was warm, too warm, and not at all warm in the sense that she necessarily wanted. It took every ounce of willpower not to spit the liquid in her mouth out. No, she was tougher than that, she could swallow it.
At least she was awake now, mechanically dropping the rest of the still-full cup into the garbage.
"Have a nice day." she was going back to her booth now, thank you.
...
Actually, maybe Alifax would like this stuff? She'd have to bring it up.

Last Bloodfest, they were delicious little cupcakes that tasted like hell on Alternia when the wrong one was picked.
This Bloodfest, they were delicious little drinks that made Zindel's neck tighten at even the thought of drinking them down. He was still willing to take the risk, and the moment he picked one, the moment it poured down his throat, the teen clutched at his throat and became as red as his scarf. He coughed and wheezed, looking positively pathetic as his mouth puckered in discomfort and a mangled groan dropped from his mouth. Damn, these things were hot! He guessed he'd have to endure, however-- He was too cheap to buy the moobeastmilk, even if it was reasonably priced!

 By the time Sascha had made it to the next booth he'd figured out how to walk without wobbling again. Now he was just waiting for his mouth to stop tasting like his own blood. He had been lucky he hadn't bitten off his own tongue with that pole vaulting stunt back there. He used the appendage to fidget the gap where one of his teeth used to be. It didn't do much to resolve the metallic tang that was clogging his senses. Blessedly, Sascha realized he'd approached a booth giving away hot chocolate! At this point he wouldn't have even minded a cold beverage. He could have at least pressed it against his bruised face. Still, this looked to be exactly the comfort drink Sascha needed. He pulled a cup off the table and took a swig. ...Sascha swallowed his mouthful of cocoa and another couple sips for good measure. It burned the whole way down. He should have checked the temperature before drinking half of it. Sascha winced as he waited out the pain. Sascha was still waiting, but the burning sensation had only increased over time. That was definitely not what was supposed to happen, especially on a snowy night such as this. Sascha's eyes watered as he was overcome with the fires of hell crawling up his esophagus. A shock of horrified recognition dawned over him and he hazarded a second glance at the booth's decor. "Ohh... s**t." He should have ******** known this was going to happen to him again.Sascha writhed in place, determined not to let the burning consume him. Bagwormother continued to patiently wait for her son to stop being in pain. Again.

After participating in a couple of events, Cerpin was starting to get thirsty. A hot drink sounded nice and he spotted a cute booth full of cupcakes and other treats. What the heck, why hadn't he come here first? He eyed the peppers on the desserts curiously. Cerpin was the kind of a*****e that liked to eat things other trolls wouldn't be able to stand just in order to brag how unique and tough he was. This was a worthy challenge. He took the drink and gulped it all down in one go.
That was a mistake.
"Ack- What the hel- haha this is a joke, rig?" It felt like his ******** thinkpan was on fire! Cerpin appeared to short circuit a bit and simply stood there laughing to himself about the intense pain and ridiculousness of the situation. Was he really going to die like this?
Because it certainly felt like that was happening right now.

Ahh, darling Cerise's roulette game. So we meet again.Frossa stomped up to the booth with bold determination, stopping only to stoop down beside Caima and give her friends lusus a polite greeting. Straightening up and brushing down the creases in her jacket, the purpleblood turned her attention on Cerise. "I could use a drink to warm my bones, Cerise, my dear~" Frossa leaaaned in over the table, practically draping herself over the free table space. "You know how I adore whatever you prepare." Wiggling her fingers over the steaming cups, she went for the one that closest matched her hue without much hesitation. It was the wrong choice. She swallowed, hardened by her past experiences with Cerise's cooking. But as she did, Frossa's eyes rolled up into her head, and she let out a slight, but unmistakable, gurgle. "D-delicious."
