Week 2

[The second week in the Champion Excellence Program kicks off on a somber note. Chitanda, Toby, the Griffin- all three of them gone, two of them in one fell swoop. If anyone thinks to check the profiles on their P.I.P.s they will find that the dearly departed Champions' profile photos have been greyed out.

Right on the dot at 7 am the mechanical woman's voice chimes to awaken the remaining champions on Sunday morning, as she has for the past week. After the initial wake-up call though there's a new message tacked on:]

Congratulations, Champions! By surviving your first trial, you have unlocked the second floor of the ship. A new mini map has been added to your P.I.P.! To access the second floor please stand on the teleporter and select the floor you wish to be teleported to.

[The new floor isn't the only thing floating around the ship though, at least metaphorically. When the Champions are awakened they have regained one new memory from the ones they've lost. Starting again on Sunday, as well, Jamie and Bolton will be back to their usual office hours in their usual locations.]

Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday


[ooc: welcome to week 2, everyone! Check-in has begun and don't forget to submit your memory regains!]

[Xander doesn't grin- his face isn't made for it. But there's a spark to his eyes that suggest he would be.]

Know your friends like you know your enemies, Jane.

[And... well he sure does have two balls thanks to Ricky darting around keeping everyone armed. He throws one at her head on, and right behind it the second, slightly to the side]

Ah-

[Her first instinct is to dodge that first ball, but while her head ducks down, her impromptu shields go up, bouncing the first one away. The second one is hastily dodged.]

Goodness!

[kingshaming]

[And while she was dodging the second ball he moves to scoop up another- masking his lack of speed through a distraction]

Come on, defend yourself!

[curdle]

[ And suddenly, a ball is hurtling towards his shoulder. It's not hard to duck out of the path of, but it is going pretty fast! GET DUNKED ON XANDER BALL IS LIFE ]

[cyan_maid]

[YOOOOOO GO THOMASIN you're one tough cookie, cookie! Jane would congratulate you if Xander wasn't drawing her attention - though she does grin at that ball headed his way. Let's make sure he feints towards that throw...!]

I am!

[kingshaming]

[He never considers Thomasin. So he dodges dodges that throw, waiting for a good one to catch and-

donk!

He turns in shock, and sees who threw it]

...well.

[cyan_maid]

[WHISTLES APPROVINGLY]

Golly, I owe whoever threw that one a cake!
