[Day 2 - ME] They see me Drankin'

[Lil Disaster]

Lil Disaster has a plan, he is going to bring back a classic song, rebrand it as a parody and make stacks of paper. Just need a few things first, he hired a local fly girl to pretty up the set, she came highly recommended. Now just need a sick dancer, someone to handle the tech side of things, and someone to manage the set and handle the boring stuff so he can create the viral music video.

The dancer is responsible for creating a tiktok dance for the masses, technology needs to handle the social media and special effects and all of that, and finally he ain’t going to be bogged down with organizing this chaos, he has to perform and be the star so let someone else bear the brunt of this.

So let’s make a viral video!

OOC: First make a Will saving throw at DC 18, then continue with the rest of the checks. For the dancer they can make a DC 13 check with either Acrobatics or Athletics. The Technology person needs to make a Technology or Deception check at DC 13, for the special effects and doing the social media. Finally the last person needs to run the set using an Intimidation or Insight check versus DC 13.

Players can skip the Will save at the beginning for a Hero Point, please note if you do this.

Standing by a sports car, Ynez was applying sunscreen and wearing a swimsuit that was sure to stop hearts and ruin lives.

Many, a young person was about to have their first sexual awakening that day.

[Bee Haw]

Bea arrived at the appointed time, looking excited to help.

She was dressed in a modest bathing suit - often called a burkini - beloved by women of many different faiths. She might not be on camera in the viral video, but she would be in the competition footage and she wanted to represent for her community. The suit was adorable with a motif of flowers.

Quite a contrast to the sexy model. But they could both be themselves. Happy, feminine, beautiful. And that was beautiful in and of itself.

She brought a cooler with twelve veggie smoothies, in bright green, orange, cream, and raspberry purple.

She set up a set of four attractively bright smoothies in to-go cups on a folding table, so they could take some shots of the product displayed at its prettiest, with a bit of fruit around it, logos prominent.

And then, of course, their lovely model could sip one during the dancing.

Smoothies were perfect for the beach! (And didn't have any caffeine! She felt so relieved. This was the video she could enthusiastically promote.)

She waited for everyone to be in place and coordinate roles. She an idea for a dance! Or she could just help everyone work together smoothly with a big dose of yee haw positivity. They could figure it out once everyone was there...

[Dapper Dog]

Bea immediately got Ynez attention who waved at the woman. "Did you bring drinks?" she said in Latin-flavored English.

[Bee Haw]

"I did! These are the delicious veggie smoothie that our client - Elite Chai - makes. Cool, refreshing, and nutritious!"

"The green one is celery, cucumber, kale, apple, and orange. The orange one is carrot, orange, and banana. The cream colored one is pineapple, banana, cucumber, and honey. The purple one is purple cabbage, blueberries, strawberries, and banana."

"They all use almond milk so they are fully vegan."

"Let us know if you have any relevant food allergies! Hopefully most of these are just fine for you."

"I think the idea is to have you drinking one as you are dancing around on the beach, all happy and having fun."

[Dapper Dog]

Ynez said, “I am grateful, thank you. Are you an elite like Lil Disaster?”

OOC: I will need a Will save of DC 18, or you can fail it for the Hero point as per the thread rules.

[Bee Haw]

"Yes, I am a fellow contestant at the Elite Academy. He was the first person I met here in Ethiopia!"

"I'm Bea," she added, realizing she had failed to introduce herself. "Bea Hawkins from Oklahoma. Also sometimes called Bee Haw. Where are you from, Ynez?"

[Dapper Dog]

Ynez took a sip and said, “South America, specifically Venezuela, little town. But I have traveled and seen other nice places. I am not familiar with Oklahoma is it near Hollywood? New York City?”

[Bee Haw]

"I imagine Venezuela is a beautiful place!"

"Oklahoma is in the middle of the country, in the south-middle of the map. North and east of Texas. East of New Mexico and Colorado. West of Arkansas and Missouri. South of Kansas."

"A long way from California, on the west coast, and New York, on the east coast."

"Honestly, it's not a place people from outside of the country typically visit."

[Dapper Dog]

"Have you been to New York City?" she asked.

[Bee Haw]

"Nope. Have you? I see it sometimes on TV and in movies."

"I've only been to Oklahoma and Utah mostly. With drive through of Texas, New Mexico, and a little bit of Colorado on the way."

"What's the most amazing place that you've done a modeling shoot?"

[Dapper Dog]

“I have been to some really nice places, but actually I had a great gig recently right on this beach. I worked with Galatea, have you heard of her?” she responded.

[Ayana Kebede]

Ayana was not the biggest fan of Lil Disaster, his content was cringe but he knew how to get people talking and watching. And if she was going to win it meant working with the people she felt could get her there.

So she made her entrance out of the sea onto the beach. She exploded from the water in a leap that took her about thirty meters through the air to land near the other ladies. She waved and said, “Sup, here for the whatever is about to happen.”

Ynez she had not met before, but that girl was cool. Super cool. Maybe they could be best friends?

OOC: Ayana Will save vs. DC 18 | 1d20+5 ⇒ 16

[Bee Haw]

Bea smiled brightly.

"Ayana! Glad to see you, roomie. Wow! What an entrance. We're getting it all figured out. Have you met Ynez? Ynez, this is Ayana."

"We've got Elite Chai smoothies ready to feature. Ynez is going to dance and drink a smoothie! LD is working on the song and expert at viral video-making. I'm helping get everything organized."

"I have a fun idea for a dance, maybe, too. For Ynez."

"We can figure it all out when LD gets here. He was so sweet to set it up to feature the smoothies rather than one of the caffiene-carrying products."

She felt fine and welcome, standing there in her modest neck to wrist to ankle covering swimsuit, beside Ynez in her very skimpy bikini.

"With what you can do with the water, that might be amazing to incorporate maybe!"

[Lil Disaster]

“We all here, choice. Alright, I spit the lyrics; Ynez you are the eye candy and the face of our video; guessing Ayana you do the water thing and Baddie Bea you do you,” he said making his grand entry.

OOC: Given we only have one player, rules will be similar to the others but with the lowered DCs, Ayana will use her water powers and Ynez can do the dancing, so Bea is free to choose what she wants at DC 13 and Lil Disaster will spit fire.

[Ayana Kebede]

“I can do the water thing, that’ll be easy,” she said with a bit of pride. "Nice to meet you, Ynez, right?"

[Dapper Dog]

She sipped her smoothie and said, “Hi.”

[Bee Haw]

As they continued putting the video together, Bea worked in the background off-camera encouraging them all to work together and trying to look after little details like having the smoothies ready. She kept the mood positive. The right yee haw spirit!

Probably, her aid to teamwork would help in the end, but she definitely faded into the background, appearing to contribute very little compared to the others.


https://sakkaku.org/r/17871 A terrible roll suggests her impact through presence/persuasion is very subtle. There really wasn't any tension to diffuse. They all got along fine. No successes contributed.

But Teamwork advantage still helps the group overall.

[Dapper Dog]

With Bea’s direction Ynez delivers a killer viral dance for the video all while sipping a smoothie from Elite Chai!

OOC: DC should be 13, Ynez dance (Acrobatics) DC 15 | 1d20+13 ⇒ 33 four degrees of success.
