*17 and Paul stand in an elevator, slowly going up to.. well, they don’t really know. Neither of them have gone through an escape room before, so neither know what exactly to expect.

After being given their name tags and having their phones taken away, the two make conversation, 17 much more excited than the other.

Paul had received his Box through Bill, it’d been left for him on his desk in CCRP with a note from him, and he’d almost given up on opening it before it seemed to open itself.

17 on the other hand had received it in the mail- he’d excitedly worked on opening it for hours. Once he found out Paul got one the same, he had excitedly asked him to go with her. Paul sighed and put aside his doubts, going along with 17. It couldn’t be that bad. And from what he’d researched, it definitely wouldn’t have any singing.

As they walked into the room connecting to the elevator, they see a white walled waiting room with plenty of seating areas and decorations. The two sat down and looked around, seeing a girl with ginger hair, an older man trying and failing to be funny, a shy girl who only spoke in mumbles so far and a man who was currently making fun of the one who was joking around.

They soon learnt their names and told them their own. Amanda, Michael, Zoey and Jason.*

*Paul looked at the others, then looked around at the room*

…How long does it usually take for these things to start?

Escape Room AU - Condensed

so, as you may have seen, the poll came to a 50/50 end

Creator's bias, I want to focus more of my time on developing a blog for my infection au, but it seemed unfair to not at least put the main prompt out there for this AU.

If your OB ocs had escape rooms modeled after their trauma or OB, what would they be like?

Now because this au was based on the movies, most people were supposed to die LMAO so the rooms are meant to have a deadly component to them, but seeing as I likely won't build this much, uh I guess do whatever?

if I run with the canon characters it would be like…

You're in Riddle's bedroom, but if you make too much noise, a distorted sound like his mother's yelling is heard- the more noise you make, the closer she gets. But you also need to move things in his room in order to find a way out

for Leona, a throne room, but everything is an illusion/illusion puzzles. If you look at it right on, everything looks fine, but looking at it from a certain angle, you can see furniture/structures starting to crumble and you have to get out before everything collapses beneath your feet/before you run out of tools to use to get to the door

Azul, you're in a classroom and the room gets pumped with laughing gas. You slowly loose your ability to think clearly while also being driven insane by other people's laughter

Jamil, it's like a moving climbing wall, a game of endurance. It gets more dangerous the longer you go but you have to keep going unless you want to get shredded. You have to wait and hold on until the wall is at the perfect angle to reach the door. Platforms appear now and then, but if more than one person has their weight on it at a time, they'll collapse

Vil's is a mirror maze, but every wrong turn you make your reflection begins to change until it's something unrecognizable. These are getting more abstract than literal RIP

Idia's is his lab. The longer it takes you to solve the puzzle, the smaller the room gets. It'll slowly crush you

idk I'm not happy with all of these but you get the gist hopefully T-T

anyone is free to join I'm likely not fleshing out this au, but feel free to use #escape room au

OKAY SO I started working at this escape room place and ever since I started, I’ve been thinking of an AU where Duke, Izzy, Riko, Dax, and Dre (actually all the WAR Robins) are working together at an escape room place except they’re all tasked with like coming up with new ideas, almost like a contest of who can create the best new room idea so they’re like really competitive, but they’re also best friends and having fun working together. And ugh I just have so many headcanons about this, I’m gonna make a post soon.

melanie king for my magnus escape room au! she works as an intern and is kinda shit at her job (she doesnt rlly care abt it). she just wants to figure out why theres sm suspicious disappearances and weird happenings at the escape room.

[howlsofbloodhounds]

(totally not inspired by real events) suddenly hit with the vision of killer and delta being in an escape room together, just the two of them. it's just so funny to me somehow. maybe it's color trying to facilitate their friendship through this activity. or maybe it's a deadly saw-style trap from some nefarious party. either way, it's a fun situation to put them in and force two people who dislike each other to work together.

~ crowshipping anon

That’d be fucking hilarious. Killer goes “no I don’t need you” and tries to do it on his own, Delta finally gives into his rage and somehow blasts the entire thing apart. And this how they are free /j

Seriously though i wonder how it’ll actually go. What will they even talk about. Would Delta attempt to talk about the actual issues but killer is avoiding all that personal talk by focusing on escaping

[canisalbus]

In both versions of them (canon and modern au), what would be Machete and Vasco's ideal date?

I think both of them prefer mostly quiet and chill experiences that don't involve a lot of loud and hectic crowds. They'd probably enjoy going to the movies, or theatre if they're feeling extra fancy. They like museums, galleries, antique markets and book fairs, and do a little bit of casual entry level hiking every now and then. Restaurants, bistros and cafes are a mixed bag, because on one hand eating out is such a classic low-stakes bonding activity, but Machete is a notoriously picky eater and doesn't like surprises when it comes to food.

Amanda Harper (ft Soldier Boy) - Suspirium

Vought+ Presents Amanda Harper in Susspiria. A woman plagued by horrifying visions travels to West Berlin and joins a dance Academy hoping she will find the answers she is looking for. There she meets a US soldier on duty and she feels instantly connected to him. Soon the secrets she keeps and the secrets that are hiding withing the walls of the Academy begin to unravel leading to an explosive finale. With Soldier Boy.

"[…] predating all Christian invention. Pre-God, pre-devil. Mother Tenebrarum, Mother Lachrymarum and Mother Suspiriorum. Darkness, tears, and sighs."

Suspiria is a horror story story about witches and dark magic. It's also a story about the horror of the past that persist as hauntings and monsters in the basement. It can also be seen as a story about madness as a symptom of being a woman. As it's often the case in the horror genre, madness magic and womanhood are linked together. “When women tell you the truth, you don't pity them. You tell them they have delusions!"

"Love and manipulation, they share houses very often. They are frequent bedfellows."

Connected Timelines Ramble: Backing off my previous 'Geno has an ex' headcanon, what if Dust happened to be that ex? I can see them bonding over shared trauma: surviving a genocided timeline and losing their brothers.

So when Dust eventually came clean about his past, that he genocided his own timeline [and others under Nightmare], even if he felt guilty and wanted to change, the heartbreak and betrayal Geno would have felt was devastating.

Even if it was originally done to stop Chara, the fact that he continued to genocide other timelines was despicable in Geno's eyes. Dust became the very same person he hated, and all Geno could see when looking at Dust was her. He broke it off instantly and Dust respected his decision and never contacted him again.

Given that Nightmare and Dream have now been at peace for decades, they're often invited to the same get togethers. They've never told anyone else about their previous relationship, so they act all awkward around each other and nobody knows why.

My son hid under my costume from last year, that I'll be going as again this year.

Yes I'm also going as Ravio, just not LU Ravio, so @sleepyy-27 ain't this ironic were both Ravio, such a shame we won't encounter each other at all because I live in the United States dry as fuck air state with the "worst wild fires" America

That walking down the aisle outfit for Lestat, Louis is going to swoon and Florence is going to have a conniption. Maybe Lestat would insist on not him and Louis not seeing each other before the ceremony because it's bad luck.

(x)

That church would have the most simultaneously rancid and intoxicating cocktail of vibes, and honestly, I love that for all of them, haha.

And I feel like Lestat would insist on sleeping separately / not seeing each other before the ceremony only to sneak into Louis' bed in the middle of the night anyway, haha. He does not have the impulse control to resist!

SELF-SCORING GUIDE

Howdy y'all, it's Mod Cal, recording from Soulsweep HQ as I always do! Today, I've got the self-scoring guide with examples!! You will be submitting your work with these, just like Artfight!

Artists

There will be four sections of scoring for you to complete! Size, lined, colour, and background! There is a character bonus for any additional characters included: 50 points. 

[Note: colored lineless art will be scored with a lineart bonus]

Bust 50pts Half Body 75 pts Full Body 100pts

Lineart +100pts

B&W Shading +150pts Flat Colours +200pts Coloured Shading +300pts Fully Rendered +700pts

Basic Background +50pts Detailed Background +100pts

Here’s how self-scoring will look for submissions: 

I have four lines of self-scoring, and because there is no background, I have specified “no background”! Because I had two characters drawn to the same level of completion, I added a 50 point bonus for Joe Hills. If I had only drawn a sketch of him, there would be no point bonus. Additional characters must be drawn to the same level of completion in order to count for the bonus!

------

Writers

There’s only one category for this! You will score based on word count and amount of characters. The character bonus is the same as for artists: 50 points!

0-500 100pts 500-1k 150pts 1k-1.5k 400pts 1.5k-2k 600pts 2k-4k 700pts 5k+ 900 pts

Here’s how self-scoring will look for submissions:

There’s only two lines of self-scoring, one for word count and the second for character bonus. As I only had two characters in this work, I only get one character bonus for including Ebony. AO3 linker will show up to provide additional detail! 

For the summary requirement, my summary did not include my given prompt (“forgiveness”) because it is under 1.5k. If my fic was longer than that, then my summary would have to convey that prompt. For example, here’s how my summary might look if my fic went over 1.5k:

EBONY offers an apology for what she must do. IVORY cannot accept. 

This summary does not have to be long! In two sentences, I can convey that my prompt is “forgiveness”. If my soulmate is looking for someone who shares that prompt, they can easily single out my fic based on this summary, even though I didn’t use the word “forgiveness” within it.

closed starter for @feraylocke, @darkenedsvn, @ellievswann, @ofgoldengrove location : a medieval castle theme escape room

"i found a key!" minthara declared, before the door to the escape room had even been locked. never mind that it had been left out in the open - she had spotted it first, and so, it was her find to claim, and she held it aloft, proudly. she didn't know what it opened, either, only that she wanted to be the one to unlock it. she was not giving up her key easily.

"there's a book here, too," she scooped it up and flipped it open, eyes scanning the page. it was slow going - without her glasses, the words blurred together on the page, but she noted with disappointment that it didn't seem to be a clue. "oh, it's just a little story. you are prisoners awaiting your execution at sunrise, yadda yadda," she tossed the book carelessly at someone else to read properly, her interest in it pretty much non existent.

"what do you think it opens?" she gestured to the key again.
