ALL I FOUND THE SPACE BETWEEN THE SPACES
STANDING IN THE NOTHING, AND TIME RECLAIMS YOU

This... this was the big event. Well, obviously the feast happening on Easter Sunday would be pretty major, but Michael was most excited for this particular event. A massive Easter egg hunt, put together by himself and several NPCs, with brightly colored eggs hidden all over the territory. Not just in random little spots, but near major landmarks and in clever little alcoves, all of which were quite clever, at least in the dealer's opinion. Not only that, but the thief was fairly sure this entire thing would be pretty damn fun, if it all worked out properly. He had to admit he was feeling a bit exhausted, since he had spent the wee hours of the morning scrambling around to hide eggs, but now he felt exhilarated. Mainly because he was ready to have cause some mischief with this whole little Easter egg hunt.

It would be pretty obvious to anyone that approached the tavern that day that Michael was involved in something. Not only was the male in his pitch black coyote form, but he also had a pair of bunny ears on his head, and a brightly colored sash wrapped around his waist. Additionally, he had a basket of eggs specifically for him sitting beside him. Something about them seemed almost... off, but he wasn't about to say anything. Well, anything about that, anyways. After all, he needed to explain what was going on.

Clearing his throat, the canine then spoke in a booming voice, "HEY, EVERYBODY! GET YOUR ASSES OVER HERE FOR SOME FUN!" The shout was enough to startle several people nearby, plenty of them coming rushing over to see what he had to say. With a satisfied smirk on his face, Michael then continued, "Thank you. Now, you're probably wondering why I'm dressed up in this getup... well, the reason is because... we're doing an Easter Egg Hunt! Although... it was probably pretty obvious." He chuckled a little, briefly shaking his head before his explanation moved forth, "The whole thing is pretty simple — you guys will be grabbing the nearby baskets, and then exploring the territory to find hidden Easter eggs. They're hidden all around The Typhoon's territory, including at many of the major landmarks." He gestured in various directions, such as at the sea dome, as well as the Anchored Tempest.

His grin then only seemed to widen as he went on, "Not only that, but I'll be making some attempts to stop you guys from collecting eggs along the way. Don't worry, I won't be hurting anyone. Just distracting you." Well, the rotten eggs he was equipped with would probably sting if they got in anybody's eyes. Thankfully, he wouldn't be aiming for those. "In the end, whoever gathers the most eggs will not only win bragging rights and the title of Easter King or Queen, but they'll also be granted the amazing reward of getting to sit next to Captain Roxanne herself at the Easter feast we'll be having tonight. Er... along with Diya, obviously." Be wasn't about to try and separate the two wives. To do so would be a death sentence, and he knew it.

With a little cheerful hum leaving his muzzle, the coyote then tapped a paw against the ground, almost impatiently. He spoke up loudly as he did so, gesturing his tail towards the baskets, "Now then... we haven't got all day, so grab your baskets and get out of here! Oh... and don't disappoint me! I better not see any baskets with no eggs in them by the end of this!" That last bit was a joke. Well... mostly. Perhaps he'd egg those who didn't actually put effort into searching. He supposed he would decide later.

( welcome to the 2021 Typhoon Easter Egg hunt!! OOC, how this will work is that your character is considered to "win" after you make 3 IC posts in this thread of them searching for Easter eggs (with at least two IC posts from others in between to give everyone a chance, please). However, if Michael goes after your character with his brand of mischief, another post will need to be made before you win (3 IC posts searching for eggs, 1 defending themselves from / running from Michael). At most you will need to make 4 IC posts in order to win! The first place winner will receive the IC rewards mentioned, as well as a digital fullbody of their character from myself, @/mediisi! The second and third place winners will also receive gems, in order to encourage people to keep participating! Have fun! ^^ )

Things had properly kicked off, at least in Michael's opinion. Perhaps the canine could've waited until a couple more people arrived, but he didn't particularly feel like waiting around. Besides, he was sure they had heard his little speech, and would come grab an empty basket if they felt like it. For now, he had a job to do. His mismatched gaze darted between the three poor souls that had already begun their hunts, making mental notes to figure out who his first target would be. Ultimately, he decided to choose randomly. In order to do so, the coyote closed his eyes, spinning himself around several times before he stopped, eyes popping back open. Even through the dizziness, he could tell that he was pointed in Vayne's direction. He hated to go after his niece first, but, well... fair was fair, after all.

With his extraordinarily fluffy tail flicking behind him, the mischief maker grabbed his basket of cursed eggs into his jaws, taking off after Vayne. It didn't take him long to catch up to her, considering his longer legs. With a shrill whistle, the male soon found himself barking in a challenging tone, "Get ready to dodge, Vayne!" He gave no more warning than that, dropping the basket in front of him and scooping up a pair of his rotten eggs. With a rather pleased smirk on his face, Michael then chucked the pair of eggs at Vayne, aiming for either her side or the ground right near her. Thankfully, the eggs weren't so raw that they were hard as rocks, or anything. He didn't want to hurt anyone, just... try and throw them off. And the smell of rotten eggs certainly did throw one off of... anything, really.

Ah, people working together. He... really should've expected that, honestly. It made sense that Vayne would want to pair up with Danny, considering their closeness. And yet, Michael had figured that everyone would go "every man for himself" style. Still, it wasn't exactly the end of the world. If both Vayne and Danny won, then he would just let them both sit near Roxie's spot at the table. That seemed fair enough to him, at least.

Regardless of how sly Vayne thought she was being, it was pretty clear what she was planning to do. Even if he hadn't heard her telepathic message, the dealer figured that Vayne was following Danny in order to speak to him quietly to plan things out. And of course, he couldn't have that happening. So, his attentions were turned to the canine, another sly grin occupying the coyote's muzzle. His voice jovial and filled with mischief as he called, tail flicking, "Head's up, Danny!" And with that, he then chucked several eggs in Danny's direction, mainly aiming for the wolf's neck, or the back of his head. If any of them hit, it wouldn't be enough to hurt or anything, but the scent of rotten eggs on your neck certainly couldn't be a pleasant one.
