There's No Place Like Traumabonding for the Holidays



HOLIDAY MURDERGAME WHERE ARE THEY NOW MEME




It's the hap-happiest season of all, and what better way to celebrate than by remembering that one (or more) horribly traumatic experience that permanently changed the face of not only your relationships but possibly your outlook on life itself?

Any character (including NPCs!) who's ever been in any murdergame is invited! Feel free to share with your friends!

Regardless of how you choose to use this meme, there's two blanket rules:
1) Make sure the header of your comment has your character's name, home canon, and murdergame listed. If you used the same account for several murdergames, you can use the same toplevel for all of them.
2) No blank comments! First and foremost this is a chance to catch up with old murdergame buddies, and maybe make new ones if you choose! Thus, your comment should go into whatever degree of detail you like describing what life has been like since the murdergame ended. Did life go back to normal? Did they get married? Have a kid? Move to another universe entirely and start over with their found family? Have they kept in touch? Go into as much detail as you want, just put something!

You can use this meme to set up any kind of "canon" or canon-compliant holiday threads with your castmates, big holiday party or no.

OR... you can pretend that there's an interdimensional all-murdergame nondescript winter holiday party that you've been invited to attend! Maybe the Curtains narrators made sure the Denny's was conveniently empty (don't mind the weird old guy in the woods out back), or maybe there was some other convenient arrangement. Either way, you received an invite, and you're here now! So spike the eggnog and check for mistletoe, because the night is probably going to get wild.

(If you're not down for one option or the other, just note that somewhere in your top-level.)

Have fun, and Happy Holidays!

[ One of the most important things about attending a party is making an entrance, and Hamelin knows a thing or two about entrances. They'll be no possium-spiders this time, but walking through the proverbial door dressed in a crisp white suit with the rest of his famiglia in tow is a sight all the same. The last time they dressed up like in public was a particularly ominous affair, but it's fine—there's probably not going to any public executions on this party.

If you were previously acquainted with the Pied Piper of Hamelin you'll notice one difference: he's grown out the rest of his hair and cut the rat tail, his hair tied up into a high pony tail for the occassion. He also hasn't managed to lose his new eye yet, which might be a miracle in itself considering that none of House Grimm was equipped to live in the year 2009 in American Suburbia.

His demeanor is also much the same, for better or worse. ]


So this is what it's like on the other side, huh. Do you think there's a host to this party? I could play one if there isn't~.

[ He's probably joking. ]

Ya should. Go over there, make a whole show about ya bein' the 'ost. That'll get the real 'un to step forward already.

[Gina points with her head towards the middle of the room]

Come on, do it. I wanna see who has the bread and honey for all this.

[Edelgard almost laughs. She does smile, slightly, and glance over at him. She's changed a fair bit over the last year, or her dress sense has. She wears her crown that curl around her head like horns, symbolizing her decision to act the part of the demon king. Or it did formerly. The war was already won as soon as McGillis and Linhardt started reverse engineering Gundam.]

It's not too late for us to redact our decision to spare your life, you know.

[Even despite their relationship, it's pretty evident by her tone that this is her attempt at a joke.]

I suppose that implies this isn't your attempt at a reprisal, though. [She takes a sip of eggnog from a mug.] I can't say I've ever heard of the holiday though.

[ In the end, none of them would have been able to think of a more fitting attire to signify their unity than the ones they had decided on in the most dire hour. It feels a little childish and a little macabre, but McGillis can appreciate both of these things.

They look classy, which is also good, because he is fully intending to use this event for networking - bringing weaponry and magic from one world to another has already made an immense difference for many of them, so why stop looking for novelty?

But for now, he is content to stick with the group and get a feeling for the place. ]


Considering the target audience of this gathering, you might set off a few more alarm bells than you are ready for. But by all means! It would be a lovely show.
