When: Saturday, February 13th. 10pm-2am

The DMDU library lights shine dimly with a spookiness that doesn't quite match the holiday. Fortunately, each pair card is placed neatly atop a flashlight and a mission pamphlet. Some of the pairs were planned while others were matched by Oshitari, the MC and organizer of the event.

The matched singles received notification of their partner, but only two hours prior to the actual evening event.

Teams:
You know who you are

Single matches:
Hitouji Yuuji-Oshitari Yuushi
Kominato Haruichi-Kise Ryouta
Niou Masaharu-Atobe Keigo
Tezuka Kunimitsu-Yukimura Seiichi

Once you rendezvous with your partner, proceed to the course. It doesn't matter which order you go in, as long as you have visit each of the ten set ups and retrieve a stamp. Use the map to navigate the large medical library from challenge table to challenge table. The first to finish will receive a glorious prize.

By the way, watch out for traps. There are trip wires everywhere, not to trip, but to trigger tiny heart glitter balls, and if you dare peek at one of the fake challenge tables (they are labeled on the map as challenges), you may find yourself locked in.

When you have completed the course to your satisfaction, you may retreat to one of the study rooms where bedding and snacks are set up for everyone to get comfortable for the night.

(ooc: Quick notes:

1. no need to play out EVERY set up. But it is to your benefit to play as many as possible

2. many of the challenges will use dice to determine a wheel spin or pulling something out of a bag)

3. if you have any questions, or you don't understand something, please message me or comment for clarification)

"What? This is weird..." Tanaka eyed Kuroo for a moment as he took the time to read it through. "I dunno if I can do this..." Of course he would worry more about answering the questions to please his friend than the fact he was giving away his password to one. Priorities.

[shinayaka]

Kuroo put a hand on Tanaka's shoulder. "Hey, come on now. You know me very well, bro." Right, so they got to exchange credentials, hm. That was way too troublesome. "How about this, I'll just login for you, and you login for me, then we exchange phones. Easier?"

[wingdragon]

"Well yeah that's fine I didn't care about that... it's getting your... what's it call? Essence down?" The word definitely sounded as strange out of his mouth as it felt. But at least with his lipstick it didn't slide off as awkwardly. Funny how dressing in costume helped you feel better.

[shinayaka]

That got a laughter out of Kuroo. "You'll do fine, don't worry. I'll do fine too." A little too confident here, but he was pretty sure he knew this bro of him well! There was no need to worry about anything!

[wingdragon]

"Alright alright. Just gotta do the thing now then. Here hand me your phone." he said, holding out his hand for it as he passed over his own now that he was logged out. Tanaka trusted Kuroo regardless since he was his bro and all even if he did often explode at him. But that wasn't any different than any of his other close bros. "Just don't do anything too weird... since I'm gonna try real hard to get your stuff down." It was still a challenge after all and no way was Tanaka going to halfass it.

[shinayaka]

Kuroo handed his phone over to Tanaka without hesitation, taking the phone on his bro's hand. "Yep yep," he grinned excitedly. This shouldn't be too hard, he was pretty sure he knew his bro well, and how he'd reply to these questions. Maybe. He could always try.

[wingdragon]

"Cool, then guess I'll just get to work over here then." he mumbled as he took Kuroo's phone and moved over to a spot to sit. He definitely stared at the screen for a lot longer without doing anything first and then he began typing rather meticulously. His bro sure did talk a lot and type a lot after all so it would take him some time and more than he was used to. His face showed his intense concentration as he entered in the information bit by bit, occasionally looking up to Kuroo as if to try to grasp his persona.

[shinayaka]

Letting out a faked shy giggle whenever Tanaka lifted his head to look at him, Kuroo drawled, "I hope you don't get too charmed looking at me like that." Surprisingly, it wasn't as easy as he thought, typing as his bro. He knew how his bro talked, but now that he thought about it, he wasn't sure what answer the bro would give to some.

He was no longer distracted by Tanaka's glances now that he focused on answering properly. Silent the whole time he did it for maybe like, 7 minutes, and now he only had one more to go. Having the habit of answering questions he knew first, he only have question no. 4 left. Hm.

An eyebrow raised as he looked at the man across him. Who? After exchanging looks between the phone and the dude for a few more times, he gave up and decided to just give a silly answer. He hoped he'd be forgiven for the other serious answers he did.

And there, posted! "Alright, I'm done. Here you go," he said, returning the phone to its owner.

[wingdragon]

"Hold on! Hold on!" Tanaka grumbled, waving him off from getting the phone back yet. He wasn't done at all! Okay maybe he was really close but still this was a lot of work. He was even proofreading it to be safe. If there was one thing about Tanaka it was that he was very honest and never wanted to disappoint his friends when they were counting on him. While this really wasn't too big of a deal this was still taking insight into how Kuroo was and he wanted to do his best even if it was silly.

Finally after a few last touch ups and intense stares at the screen, he finally let out a sigh of relief and hesitantly handed it over. "Okay man... there check it out hope it's sound."

1. What is your morning routine? Routine? Well I don't think it's much of a routine but believe it or not I just slip out of bed and I'm perfect and ready to go for the day! Minus a few touch ups of course.
2. If you could be any animal, which would you be and why? Hm... that's a tough one! But I'd have to save a big cat for my old school's namesake. Something sleek and cool though. Oh like a panther! Yeah definitely like a black panther. Hey I think that's a superhero too. I'd rock that for Halloween right?
3. What is your secret talent? I never have to fix my hair it just always naturally falls into the perfect place. You know I bet it's like Mickey Mouse ears too, it probably looks the same from every direction right? Perfection!
4. Which peer do you most admire and why? My main bro Koutarou of course! But if I have to be real about admiring... I gotta say Ryuunosuke-chwan's always in my eyes. I just love being around that guy he's so handsome~
5. If you were mayor for a day, what would you change about your city? Wow that's a big responsibility! I wouldn't even know where to begin. I guess I'd like to be able to take a day off and chillax though. Maybe an extra holiday every month? Or time for everyone to sleep in. Yeah that would be nice.
6. What is the most rebellious thing that you’ve ever done? Rebel? Me? Nah that was maybe in my crazy days but that's a secret... there was never anything involving crazy parties, shhh.
7. Six words to describe your outlook on life. That's a lot of words! Or maybe not enough. Hm... Good friends, good food, good times?
8. What is your ideal date? So long as I get to spend some fun quality time with that special someone, I don't care where or what we're doing. I only have eyes for that special kitty-chwan who's hand I wanna hold the whole time~
9. If you painted your nails, which color would they be? Nothing wrong with the classic red. Oh but I would like to try that fancy stuff sometime maybe with sparkles or gems? I mean really if I'm going to try I wanna go all out!
10. Your favorite pastime? Why that would be spending time with my favorite neighbors~ And volleyball of course but the two go hand in hand. Life is good~

Watching Tanaka struggle so hard with the answers made Kuroo kind of really happy. It was really nice of him to think of it so seriously, when it was all just a game. Just showed how earnest he was for his friends. Kuroo would give him a pat on the back but the man's busy thinking he wouldn't want to break that concentration.

Kuroo just pressed 'Post' the moment the phone was returned to him without checking, knowing how well his bro must've done. "No worries, silly. I knew you would do well!" But of course, he wanted to know what Tanaka inputted in there!

Reading through, he couldn't help but guffaw at how accurate some of the answers were. "Hey, you really do pay a lot of attention to me, don't you?" he elbowed his bro lightly. That Mickey Mouse bit was really cute, unattractive giggles left him as he read through that one. It stopped when he read the answer on number 4, though. His cheeks flushed slightly at the answer, his eyes darting from the phone to Tanaka. Did he say that aloud all the time or something? God, he wanted to bury himself. Though he'd say cute more than handsome, definitely. But this was kind of embarrassing for some reason. "Ryuuko, you're such a narcissist!" he did the elbow again, hoping to alleviate his bashfulness.

In attempt to distract himself, he continued reading and definitely, it was such a feat. Tanaka really did pay a lot of attention to him, it was really nice to know. "I love your answer to number 5 and 7," he smiled. "I'd love more holidays and sleeping in. And good friends, good food, good times is just perfect." Number 8, however, was another punch on his gut, causing him to panic a little. "Wait, what, who is this special kitty-chwan?"

Kuroo nodded at number 9 and 10. "Ooh, yeah, definitely," he muttered to himself. That was amazing how Tanaka got that as well. Oh no, no more? He felt a little sad when the scroll reached the end of it. Nevertheless, it was fulfilling. "Aw, Ryuuko. I can feel how much you care about me through this. Thank you. Read mine too," he nudged the younger, anticipating his reactions.

(ooc: What Kuroo wrote as Tanaka:

Warming up my girl before riding on her.

2. If you could be any animal, which would you be and why?

After he had worked so hard to get the questions as accurate to the Kuroo he knew so well he felt a bit anxious once his friend was scanning over it all. There was that long silence, which was really only a split second but felt like an eternity, and then a laugh? A really big one too! That weird goofy kind that always made Tanaka with smile or scowl depending on the situation. This time though it sent relief through him as he just grinned widely seeing Kuroo enjoy himself reading through the stuff.

"I ain't a narcissist!" he argued of course paying most attention to the negative stuff since Kuroo usually was out to get a rise from him. He gave a few shrugs at the kitty thing. "I dunno just seemed like something you'd say to try to be cool but really you have no freaking idea. It's why everyone always thinks you're this wild guy but you're just clueless." This coming from someone who was usually even more clueless about things. Well whenever they didn't concern important stuff in friends lives at least it went over his head.

His cheeks flushed ever so slightly at all the praise he definitely wasn't used to it unless the guy was looking to pick a fight with him. "Yeah well... lived with you next door for two years now so I better know you this much at least." He rubbed his nose shyly and then pulled up his phone to take a peek. Tanaka was feeling pretty great already with all the encouragement from his friend.

Needless to say his read through was a lot faster and for a moment he pondered how different they both were. But he was really touched by how Kuroo who was always a longwinded person had caught the simple essence of him. Even if some of it made him feel a little dumb for a moment but they were still pretty true.

"Yo man... I mean... uh... Tetsuko this is really great. Thanks." Tanaka murmured shyly again not sure why he was blushing so much over it. He could just really feel that strong bond of friendship and how well they knew each other. Perhaps it was something easily taken for granted and this whole game was definitely showing it. He wrapped an arm around Kuroo's shoulder and brought him close.

"These are real good.... except for that admiring you thing." he added with a smug smirk so they didn't go getting too mushy. He reached over to pat the pink wig. "Least your hair is tame now. I can admire that."

[shinayaka]

Bulls-eye. This had been incredibly unexpected for Kuroo, that his pal actually saw through him. It was true that he was, most of the times, clueless. He would admit that. It was so true, that he didn't have anything to say back to the mohawk, apart from a bashful laughter. A few years back, he wouldn't have realised that. Guess that was what you get for growing up. You started to see all these things about yourself that you didn't see before. He patted Tanaka's arm as he smiled fondly, he didn't even understand why he did that.

Being on the watcher side was refreshing. The changes in Tanaka's expressions were great, he found, as he leaned his cheek on his palm. Great, as in he might've done alright. He did have quite a bit of confidence on it, but, you know. There was always that slight insecurity. It all melted down when he saw the flush on his bro's cheeks and how meek his response was to Kuroo's answers, though. For the umpteenth time today, his heart felt really warm. The warmth definitely jumped up a notch when the surprise arm wrapping was done on his shoulder. Gosh, Tanaka, you would give him a heart attack one of these days. He managed not to do something stupid and leaned slightly towards the friend.

"Yeah," Kuroo snickered, unable to deny that. While the pat was on his wig, he could feel it still, and it was making him just a tiny bit nervous. "I just didn't know what to answer to that. What's your answer?"
