“Guns?” Such a weapon might be hard to get back, but it was far too early to say that with any certainly.
As the topic switched back to his companion, Will paused before laughing. “A lot of people tend to say that, for they are not used to his stare. However, I can assure you that he means you no harm, nor will any come to you. He is quite well behaved.”
“Yes, guns. I carry them to face the Rebel Army myself.” That’s what she does in her world. Shoot to kill any Rebel Army soldier. Bonus points if it’s Allen O’ Neil and Morden. Behind one creature’s glare is a cunning. It was a good thing that his pet is highly well-behaved. Imagine if it wasn’t BUT that doesn’t matter. She prefer his pet that way to prevent any random attacks from others.
Tumblr media
“That’s a relief.” She’s relieved alright. “Are there many of those similar of your pet on your world?”

There was still a lot to see, even if she didn’t really see any of it. Not in the traditional sense anyway. Familiar but not, something felt… Well, she wasn’t sure how it felt and that was the heart of the problem. She felt pulled somewhere, but for the life of her she couldn’t tell where. 
And now someone was trying to talk to her. Well, it still beat the cries of witch and weaponry
“I suppose it is, if a mildly inoffensive day is enough to qualify as nice.”
Tumblr media
She tilted her head, giving just enough of a smile to hopefully take the chill or her words if not the air.
“And it is, I would say. Things could certainly be worse. Can I help you with soemthing?”
This one seems to be friendly, at least. Normally, they’re hostile as heck prior to her experiences in her world, dealing with sword-wielding Arabian soldiers and such. Fio’s a nice person in general, when she’s not guns blazing.
Tumblr media
“I, uh wanted to know more about this place.” She paused. Probably still not getting used on where they were right now as they aren’t in their respective worlds. A breather was there but she continued, either way. “Like, where are we right now, currently?” She’s not good at maps, even if she’s experienced on venturing on her world. Not this one.

Not knowing what was going on but Fio felt something quite weird in her. She believes in technology and arsenal warfare but wielding magic elements seemed cool and all but this was something way off for her.
Tumblr media
“Do you have any idea what’s going on here? I felt something strange in me without noticing it earlier, like i can do some magic?” Fio controls the elements but it was way off character for her as a soldier.

“It is, but it cannot be helped. Besides, I am sure that they will return before too long.” Or so he hoped; it was frustrating to be unable to do anything with the abilities he had taken for granted. He was also certain that his partner felt the same frustration.
Speaking of his partner, Xatu was staring at the newcomer rather intently.
“That’s nice to hear. Wished my weapons came back to me as well, knowing i wield mostly guns.” It is indeed, knowing of being stripped of whatever they had. Fio came from a militarized family, which is why she uses guns most of the time.
Tumblr media
“Your pet seems on looking at me like it wants to kill me...” She noticed how Xatu, his companion had that one stare. She didn’t do anything wrong.

With the winter chill in the air, a lot of the city-zens were staying inside, clinging to sources of warmth both natural or otherwise. But not The Council. Far removed from the city itself as they were, that did not mean they weren't hard at work on improving it.
"What next?"
The question was always on their minds. This city was the most successful yet of the HAVEN project. But simply being the best wasn't good enough; they wanted to improve on things thought immutable. After all, Lifelines were once thought to be a pipe dream too... who's to say they can't be... 'upgraded?' A little testing in production never hurt anyone, right?
Right?
-
It's Friday morning, and MINTHY has a lot of work to do. In her hands she carries a box, wrapped in generically-festive wrapping paper and topped with a large red bow. She carries it up to the front door of someone's home, and knocks thrice. Knock, knock, knock. Never more, never less.
There's no answer, and so she shrugs and leaves the gift box at the doorstep, and moves on to the next house, materializing another identical box in her hands along the way. Knock, knock, knock, until she's visited every resident of The Chronolium.
Those who do answer the door will be greeted cheerily, and told that this gift is from The Council itself, and please be careful with it! Any questions more specific than that will be met with vague non-answers, unfortunately.
The box itself isn't too heavy. It feels about the weight of an arctic fox, perhaps. Upon undoing the bow keeping the lid secure, out will pop an ARCTIC FOX, covered in soft white fur and boasting adorably large ears. This fox will ignore most attempts at communication, instead opting to seek out and boop every member of the household with a swat of her paw. If someone isn't home, she will wait by the door until they do arrive, booping them as soon as they enter.
When all is said and done and booped, the fox is satisfied, and disappears in a puff of white smoke. Those touched by the fox will feel as if there's something more to them now, something they weren't aware of before. They feel more powerful—literally. Luckily, their very Lifeline has now been altered, and so they have an innate sense of how to use their newfound power, but it may take some getting used to...
So, what exactly happened... ?
You've been visited by the holiday fox of good fortune (along with her Tiefling-like companion) and, whether your muse had supernatural abilities before or not, they now have new ones! Yes, even ordinary human muses can now have a sample of what it feels like to be one of their more magical and fantastical friends.
The list of powers your muse can now use, along with their safe limits, can be found HERE.
What's the drawback?
Your muse cannot use these powers infinitely, nor can they use them without risking harm to themselves. There is only so much 'mana' imbued into your muse's Lifeline for this event, and so if you use these powers too much... you will run out, and be unable to use any more at all (aside from those you already had before the event).
How quickly this mana runs out depends on the powers used and how much you use them, and Chronolium staff doesn't really want to moderate the exact minutia of it, so you're free to use your best judgement about whether or not you are overusing powers! Besides, there is a workaround anyway, which will be explained further down.
Risking harm, you said?
That's right! These powers are experimental, and The Council cannot guarantee that they are completely safe to use. If you are below the safety limits listed in the powers document, you should be just fine! You can exceed them, of course, but at your own risk. Some powers might refuse to work at all, but still drain your mana. Others might work but incorrectly (for example, a fireball might explode in your face instead of at your target), or they might bring about more normal pains akin to those laid out on the ranks page. It's up to you! The only thing is that some sort of consequence is guaranteed beyond the safe limits, just that what the consequence is, is at your discretion.
How can we replenish mana?
Simply put, by visiting a local medical center! Any one will do; the local hospital, urgent care, clinic, etc. Hell, you could even try the dentist, so long as they have a spare room. If you go to the front desk and ask to see "DR. VEDNA," you'll be brought into an empty room and, after a few minutes, be seen by the doctor in question.
She will request that The Council replenish the mana of your Lifeline, in exchange for a full and detailed report of any experiences you had with the powers, particularly any bad side effects. This is an experiment, after all, and they could really use the data! When she is satisfied, she will leave, and you will awaken the next day with fully restored mana.
How long will the event last?
The event will end at 11:59pm on January 7th, 2022. No starters for the event may be posted after the end date, and you must participate in the event in some form before the end date to earn participation credit for this event. You may still continue existing event threads after the event has ended, of course, but they will not grant you credit for participation if you have not already received it.
Do I need to participate in this event?
You don't need to participate, no! Event participation is never required, nor are you required to have your muse acknowledge that are events are happening if you don't want to. However, while events are not required for any ranks, they may be used for council benefits (coming soon!), so you may want to keep that in mind and keep track of your participation somewhere!
Can I write a drabble for participation?
You can, and it will count just as much as a thread with someone else would! There is no required word count, we just require that you at least put some effort into it (a one or two sentence post just for event credit wouldn't count, for example).
I have another question about the event!
Please send it to the masterlist, and not the council sideblog! As the masterlist is where events are posted, it is also where event-related FAQs will be answered, unlike ordinary FAQs. The first batch of event FAQs will be answered tomorrow, Saturday the 18th!
How can Minthy possibly visit every house in one morning?
You wouldn't ask this of Santa Claus.

Started to venture to wander around the unknown once again, Fio had to do that. With no weapons to use with, it will resort to use her bare hands if there’s danger popping onto her. She’s not going to rely on free transport biz, as she finds it a lie sometimes.
There was a woman, as cold as ice, with presence that can make nearby people shiver. Fio tried to be friendly.
Tumblr media
“Oh, um. Hello there.” She had to be careful on talking to these kind of people, seems intimidating as Fio isn’t. “Nice day, we’re having....?”

At the question, Will looked up and noticed that a stranger had approached.
Tumblr media
“Originally I, along with my team, were among the strongest of pokemon trainers back home. However, I have done street performances many times, so your assessment is not wrong.
However, due to certain limitations imposed by this strange place, I am left unable to perform.”
Hearing the word ‘strongest’ might make sense since he came from a different world with these kind of strange creatures known as ‘pokemon’. Fio really had no idea what were those but his pet partner is a sample of it, right in the Italian’s very eyes with glasses.
“Being limited on ability seems a hindrance isn’t it? Sorry to hear that.” It could be not only him being in a limiter but so is she, knowing that Fio might carry nothing to protect herself around here.

Deunan, still, isn’t all that much better at navigating around here. The streets don’t quite look the same but similar enough to where she gets turned around sometimes! Occasionally.
Right now.
And someone’s asking her for help. 
Trying not to show it, the blonde gives her a sheepish smile.
Tumblr media
“Uh, this is Fifth street! It’s just after Fourth…”
“Fifth... i guess i can remember that.” For real she should, even if one’s obviously not that great at navigation which is understandable. Even if the smallest detail, Fio will take that.
Tumblr media
“So ,um. You’re a local around here?” Not some can be a local but seems most were from other worlds, perhaps.

Hungry with all the wandering that she couldn’t remember things, Fio was looking for a marketplace or any kind of eatery as she isn’t picky about things here as knowing the situation is very important, which was taught by her father.
She could take another transit ride because of free rides but she needs to eat first. The food here in this place, she wondered what it looked like.
Tumblr media
“E-Excuse me,” She had to make a breather but the growling in her stomach can be heard. “Is there a place where i should eat right now? All this wandering making me hungry.”

Ania perks up from behind her sketchbook, and smiles friendly. Well, you know, her sharp teeth hidden behind tightly sealed lips. She doesn’t want to ruin her first impression after all, if this human is not familiar with her kind.
Tumblr media
“No offense taken. I’m a Ferengi, from Ferenginar. If I may ask in return, are you a human from around here?”
“Oh, a ‘ferengi’, guess that makes you a first in me as well.” For the very first time she had met an alien-type that isn’t as hostile indeed. Fio will remember this and maybe her kind isn’t that bad, perhaps. The other wouldn’t want to ruin her first impression, that is mutual.
Tumblr media
“Not a native here since i just arrived here recently!” She may never understand Ania’s origins which is Ferenginar, but that is female ferengi’s world. which makes sense.

A strange kind of a martian. Fio’s no judgemental to martians as long as they aren’t as hostile as the ones from Mars with tentacles and beam weaponry. She had dealt with stranger aliens in her world but here, doesn’t need to raise her weapon, IF she had one.
Tumblr media
“I wouldn’t want to be rude but, what kind of creature are you?” She’ll know what kind are they as long as she doesn’t want to annoy her kind.  Fio only looked at her.

Such a cute creature this fellow carries. It looked like a bird but was that actually a bird? Fio had no idea since this is her first encounter with a man and his bird pet-thing. Maybe he was some kind of a performer.
Tumblr media
“Are you and your pet a street performer?” Of all the questions she asked, it had to be this one.
@ladypeppino​
Tumblr media
“Well, this bites.
We are without our abilities, our gym, our coworkers, and everything else.” He couldn’t even make money as a street magician, or perform in any capacity without his abilities.
“What now?”
Xatu simply stared at his human.

Hates Martians from Mars
Carries often a Heavy Machine Gun
Speaks ala Mario from -redacted-
Cold baths are good for her, hot is quite not her strong suit
Rebel Soldiers and other enemies from her world, DNI

Fio had never been into scrapyards in her whole life but this place is now her very first. For what reason why she was here, could be just wandering around in Techno Solar-related fields. Because she wears glasses, doesn’t mean she’s an inventor of some sort, she isn’t.
Ironically, she’s lost.
Tumblr media
​“Excuse me, what place is this?” There could be someone helping her out of here and just go to the places she’s slightly familiar to.

“Techno... Solar?” Fio’s new home seemed strange and unfamiliar. She was supposed to be doing her recent recon mission but pretty sure to the Regular Army, she’s MIA. One thing that matters is at least she’s not dead.
Noticing a strange unlit glow, she doesn’t know what to do with it.
“I hope not to bring worry to others.” She started looking around at her new place and home.
