Pie corrupts. Absolute pie corrupts absolutely.

The Pie Meme




Happy Pi(e) Day! (Unless we're talking IC and you're in one of those games with an odd RP-to-RL day conversion, in which case happy Wednesday.)

You are in what appears to be a math party. As was previously mentioned, it's Pi Day and this party is apparently in celebration of that. Math decorations hang from the ceiling, and there's math party favors in math themed gift bags.

It's very mathematical and odds are you're not entirely sure what you're doing here. Unless you're someone like Sho Minamimoto in which case this might be your party.

The one undeniably redeeming feature is the variety of pies. There's a ton of pies of all sorts of delicious flavors and sizes. And yeah, like all good hosts do, half the pies are tainted with magical filling which will cause you to react in some fashion or another, because what breaks the ice like inexplicably being compelled to sing because you decided you had to have a rhubarb pie? Exactly.

Genre savvy individuals might be forewarned about which pies to avoid because they saw other people eating them and acting funny. Restless people might be trying to find a way out of this math party and don't care about pies. Sarcastic people might get milage out of watching the people who ate the rhubarb pie. But for the people who just don't care or just want a slice of tainted pie, read on:

Rhubarb Pie: ...yeah, sure, you feel inexplicably compelled to sing. I used it as an example, why not? You're singing along to a song no one else can hear like you're being yanked about by a puppeteer, and every line is a catchy verse and it's just getting worse. (This link might be helpful if you're going to rhyme all the time.)

Apple Pie: Like a bolt out of the blue or an idea tumbling down from above to strike your head you feel very inspired. Things make sense! You suddenly realize how you want to paint that painting or write that verse or you have an idea of how to beat that one boss that's been blocking your way! And obviously nothing's going to stand the way of your idea, and all of the people doing nothing? They can help you whether they like it or not. Time to dockpress and minionize.

Chocolate Cream Pie: You feel oddly flirtatious and suave...or you might just problems expressing yourself in anything but a pick up line or come on, and despite the very real problem that you have the closest you can get to actually saying it is, "What's going on I can't stop...staring at you, baby, Heaven's missing an angel." Either enjoy it or get a pen and paper and hope that your fingers are freer to write down your digits because is it hot in here or is it just you? (I can't stop! HELP.)

Pumpkin Pie: These pies are really inspirational. You're going to make your own! Or get someone else to make their own, but no matter what you are on a quest. This quest entails just getting in touch with your chef side and cutting loose and of course every chef needs a guinea pig to taste their dishes. So put on your shoes, run to the store if you have to, and then find the nearest kitchen and get cooking!

...hey wait! How did you find a way out of the math party? Take me with you...

Shepherd's Pie: You are feeling predatory and the only thing standing in your way of the perfect crime (may it be assault, mugging, property damage, a dramatic heist, a stolen kiss, or anonymously trying to send someone a love letter) is either trying to get your victim to go somewhere in which there isn't a bunch of people standing around with pies or trying to get away and having someone follow you around. (Possibly because they ate the chocolate cream pie and seem like they're trying to get in your pants.)

Alternatively speaking, if you happen to be a Mass Effect character, you may substitute with inexplicably having the urge to talk about Shep. (Which I know is spelt Shepard, not Shepherd, but still, close enough for a bad joke.)

Nega Pie of Evil: ...well, the flavor sounded exciting, but was a bit underwhelming in taste. However, unbeknownst to you your evil twin just showed up to the party. Maybe you heard about your evil twin's presence and are trying to track them down before people are hurt. Maybe you are your evil twin! Maybe you're your evil twin posing as the good original! Maybe you're just from Inaba, tragically misunderstood the situation, and want to make sure nobody shouts, "You're not me!"

In the event that you are evil, the pie tasted amazing but summoned your good twin instead.

[He is suspiciously eyeing a Nega Pie of Evil with the look of a man who knows that the name is the, well, Nega Pie of Evil for a reason and yet feels compelled to take a risk and try it. Unless interrupted he'll probably take a bite. Probably will take a bite anyway.]

[Normally, she could care less about "Pi Day", but with a Time Lord's mind in her head now, she's absolutely giddy about it. She's eyeing the pies, a strange Time Lord carving bubbling in her stomach.]

Don't you think eating something with that name sounds a bit... dangerous?

[Rydia's had some of the Pumpkin Pie and has made a large batch of cupcakes. Half of them are probably good, the other half, probably bad, but either way she's offering the least scary people she can find one with a big, childish smile befitting of her age.]

fadingmist: (Super Happy)

[personal profile] fadingmist 2012-03-14 09:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I can't eat them all myself, right? So may as well give them to others to enjoy too!

[personal profile] temptsfate 2012-03-14 09:39 pm (UTC)(link)
It does. That's part of its allure. [Still isn't biting into it.] What sort of pie would have a name like that, I wonder...
fadingmist: (Hm?)

[personal profile] fadingmist 2012-03-14 09:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Probably a bad one. I mean, why add "evil" to the name of something?

[personal profile] lowkeyinaminor 2012-03-14 09:42 pm (UTC)(link)
It's rather festive. I'm rather surprised that Midgard holds baked goods in such high regard.

...thank you. [And he takes it with the slightest of smiles, and, after a slight sniff and look takes a bite and...]

[...by Slepinir's...droppings...this tastes funky.]

finish;

[personal profile] lowkeyinaminor 2012-03-14 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
...what did you put into them? [They're not the worst cupcakes in the world, but there's something funky about them.]
fadingmist: (Um...?)

Sleipnir's droppings? *Giggles immaturely*
