[Warded to Ravi and Cecil]

Heyyyyyyyy, dearest responsible friends who might be interested in knowing when something big and rules-skirting is happening.

Remember the game with the knives? The fake knives?

The one that you, Ravi, asked me to tell you as little about as possible?

Two days.

GOOSEBERRY HUNGER GAMES

Hey everyone! This year, I'll be organizing the game, which is exciting. If you can read this, you're probably going to be participating. Just a reminder, tomorrow's the last day for people to give me their names.

THE RULES
On Monday morning you're going to find a plastic butterknife in your locker with a name written on it.

The winner is the last person standing.

The winner takes home the whole prize pot.

You then have to ‘kill’ that person by prodding them gently with your knife. After they ‘die’, you then take their knife, and have to go after their target next.

You may not ‘kill’ someone while they’re naked.

You can't kill anyone while you're nude either or certain people would go on naked assassinations.

You may not ‘kill’ someone in their cabin, the bathroom, the showers, during a Grotto party, or in the cafeteria. Or in the infirmary.

You may not ‘kill’ someone in front of a teacher.

If you actually hurt the other person in your murder attempt, you’re out of the game. The person who was injured takes your knife, and it’ll be as though they killed you.

Die in a sportsmanlike way, don't be a dick about it.

If you want to argue a death wasn't fair, you have to come talk to me.

THE PRIZES
394 dragots (100 of it is in this sadistic puzzle box.)
A tiara.
A computer data stick thing Micah says is full of movies.
Rainbow Trout eye pillow.
LOTS OF CHOCOLATE. Fancy chocolates, a five pound bar of chocolate, hand made chocolates from Cecil, 10 chocolate frogs.
A cool deck of cards.

A signed autograph from our very own Cameron Carney!

BOOZE. A bottle of Malibu, a bunch of miniature bottles, a bottle of fancy vodka.

Badass black flower grown, very goth.
An amazing robot bird made by the most brilliant little sister I know!
Trail mix!
A fox hand puppet!
A pocket watch!

YEAH, DIEGO, WHAT IF THE SPECTATORS START MURDERING EACH OTHER IN THE STANDS??

THEN IT SOUNDS LIKE THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN MORE ON GUARD. I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR LAISSEZ FAIRE ATTITUDES.

IF I GET KNOCKED OFF MY BROOM, CAN ANYBODY KILL ME WHILE I'M UNCONSCIOUS AND/OR RECOVERING IN THE INFIRMARY???

Okay, okay, I'll add "no killing in the infirmary" too. But if you nap in the lodge, you're taking your life into your own hands.

It's the fuckin Hunger Games, Kramer. Kill or be killed. Azurcrest better make it a good one, or else we'll all start turning on each other.

I'm weighing the pros and cons of risking getting caught by Thorn while stabbing someone mid-air.

K, serious question: does it only count if the knife doesn't leave your hand? What if you throw your knife through the air while you're flying and hit your target?

HEY MORALES

YEAH, MORALES. CAN WE THROW KNIVES???

It's gotta be a stab with the knife in your hand or your cute beater's winning the whole damn thing without even trying.

Yeah, Roxie's a real asshole. Wouldn't have minded seeing her clean up, though.

Heyyyy. Ese es mi sobrino.

If I get you, I'll give you the chance to run. Family policy.

I'm getting misty eyed over here.

I figure you deserve the chance. There's no way those sisters of yours are taking it easy on you.
