PARADE FLOAT CHECK IN #1

Parade Float Check Ins

Each day that ticks by is another day closer to to the big Homecoming Parade! Students plan and build throughout the week in their free time, assembling impressive flying floats for the parade before the big dance.

All floats are stored in the back of the Artificing Workshop to protect them from any inclement weather. Dr. Ranui does most of the supervising, but the rest of the Heads of House know how he can be. And they occasionally swing by to check on progress and make sure nothing's breaking the rules.

Today, it's Mr. Berzelius peeking in on what students have planned. Why don't you tell us a little bit about what he finds?

How This Works
  • Just one member from each team needs to respond to the "RESPONSE" header with a description of the current state of their float
    • Completely empty floating base is totally acceptable
  • You will get a bonus to your overall score for checking in. For each additional team member who checks in and describes how they're contributing, you'll get additional points to your final roll, averaged out based on how many team members you have.

  • You have until Sunday, 10/13 at 11:59PM PST to check in for credit.

  • If you haven't signed up for a float and would like to participate, there are floats that are open to members. We will also allow players to submit additional floats through this weekend. You just need 4 player characters to qualify as a team!

Uriah's main contribution is that if he falls asleep (he's currently asleep) you can start stacking items on top of him, and like a particularly lazy cat, he will let you.

He's also a good artist when he's awake, but honestly, nothing about this approach really screams FINE ART.

Presley casts duplication charms on a pair of blue sunglasses, and hands them out to his other team members. This is not because he cares about any of your eyeballs. They are just not going to half-ass this garbage aesthetic.

Mary Grace practices putting the sunglasses on and dramatically pulling them off again. Hm. She needs to work a hair flip in there.

The sunglasses land on Uriah's back. He doesn't stir.

Felicity takes some of the confetti she scooped from Zippy-Dip and lays it delicately next to Uriah's face. Like a colorful, shiny pool of drool.

The rest she tosses in the air and lets rain down on everyone.

Wyatt was pretty confident that his biggest contribution was going to be moving boxes, but Mary Grace outpaced him. Now, his job is looking fine in these blue shades. "I get to keep these, right?"

He kneels down to gently place Uriah's glasses on his face, very crookedly.
