Summer Dance Mix (open player plot)
WHO: People around Ellipsa and also Rinku
WHAT: The curse that creates a simulation game of your world is back, but it’s… significantly more harmless (except maybe for your wallet).
WHEN: July 6
WHERE: Weird mind space
WARNINGS: Some discussion of trauma/teamnesia games and what goes on in those, as well as the recent Cursed RPG, Jar of Human Poké Ball, and Lobotomy Corporation player plots.
[You were going about your day. Maybe you were hoping for something nice to happen after everything that’s been going on in town these days. It’s been a rough summer so far, after all, for some more than others.
Something grabs you, though. In the real world, you’ve fallen asleep where you stand, but from your perspective, you suddenly see a stage lit up purple and a cheering crowd.]
RAISE YOUR HANDS UP!!!

Let’s Go!
NEXT MEMBER IS…
[Light flashes, and you’re standing backstage. There are others standing around too, some you might recognize. On the stage, you’ll see a DJ booth with your faces on it. One of you might have an instrument, another a fancy glowstick or two, and you’ve all got microphone headsets on.
The announcer is calling you on stage.
Welcome to D4FES.]

[Have fun – it’s an open, lighthearted variation on the cursed-item player plot! Info is here, but basically your character is now expected to perform a DJ live, either alone or in a group (players can work that out). There are turntables on the stage that you suddenly know how to use, and characters who wish to fulfill extra roles in units while one of their threadmates DJs will also have whatever equipment they need and the knowledge to use it. Want to VJ? You’ve got a laptop ready, and mysteriously, all the art or video footage you can imagine is there to project onto the screen behind you or into your LED penlights. Want to play live music? Have an instrument!
The post will be divided into three toplevels in chronological: Free Play (where you play your first round and get used to Suddenly You’re On Stage), Gacha (backstage mingle with everyone else, where a gacha mechanic will put you in new clothes that make you feel stronger and that your threadmates can envy and/or laugh at), and Raid (go perform again with all your new skill and score high enough to break out of the simulation).
As is standard, no powers. We don’t want any accidents on stage.]

FINAL
One last message appears on the screens, and you hear it, or maybe feel it, too.]
LIVE SUCCESS
SS Rank Clear!
[You white out. You see another vision, and then you’re awake again in the real world, right where you fell asleep.]
no subject
Maybe it's because people in Rinku-chan's world are so nice. Maybe they wanted to make us happy. Or are they all natural born DJs and just didn't know it..?
While he's still catching his breath, a new vision kicks in. So that's what happened--! After talking to Kantera earlier, he has a decent idea of what Rinku was trying to do - but that, along with the stage and the hammering music and the many colourful lights, will feel like a dream when he wakes up. (Not for long, of course - after all Rinku will go on her apology tour.)]
