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!

[What an…interesting proposition. Misfire the very human and not robotic (thank you, holoavatars), crosses his arms. They clip into each other ever so slightly.]

How many are you feeling?

I dunno. Nine? That seems like a good place to start once you take out the repeats and the poor little shits who didn't really want to.

[Homeboy seems a little prickly, not the touchy feely type. Neither is Dio. He jerks a thumb towards himself.]

Dio. "From the game in the mall."

Nine sounds good. I’m down for watching you punch nine guys.

[He prefers watching.]

Misfire. From “the underwater one with a lesson about the evils of capitalism and the power of family.” Nice to meet you, loser.

Man, you practiced that one, huh?

[He puts his hand to his face that way a lot of guys do like "damn".]

Yeah, I was actually one of the wolves they put on the board with the sheep back then. Executed. Is that how it was for you guys too? The terrible odds of getting them to execute each other instead of finger you?

[You're so lucky he's not Dandy.]

Similar enough. You get it wrong, everyone dies.

[He shrugs.]

Me, I was one of the poor losers they had to find and figure out whodunnit. So what's your deal? You got a motive or you just get bored?

Oh, yeah, the foxes. [Dio says like the furry metaphor makes perfect sense. Dio is literally a furry. Not an anthropomorphic nonhuman being, no, literally just a human being who thinks that other mammals are cool.]

About that...

[He puts his hands in his pockets.]

I kinda grew up in a cult. I had this mission from God to save the world and would blow up the damn building to get back to work. Though I didn't buy into their little game, any more way to escape, until they offered money I was sure some other people would go for. So, yeah, I looked like a jackass. Real parable there.

[Misfire squints at the comparison, but otherwise lets it slide like he does most of the strange things the people around him say. He’s even trying to be nicer about it! Look at that.

Anyway, he whistles low.]

That’s… [crazy.] rough, buddy.

[He places a holohand on his shoulder and gestures to the rest of the room.]

Hey, at least you’re not just a jackass. You’re a jackass among other jackasses. Bet you’ll find way worse in here.

[hey wheres vholran??]

[Dio gives a lil nod and peers widely at the room. It's turned into Toy Story "Jackasses. Jackasses everywhere."]

Yeah, not like I was the last one either. We talked it out eventually. That must happen pretty often if so many of us can party like this.

[Seriously, wouldn't have happened back in the Nonary Game: Ambidex Edition. Right?]
