[SWE] WHEEL! OF! FORTUNE!

It stands at the very centre of the proceedings, regardless of which direction you approach from. Huge, garish, beaming with light and colour, this wheel is not just for show. It is the show.

"Roll up, roll up!" chirps a figure behind a mask decorated with bumblebees, their tophat and tails in similar gold and dark colours. "Care to spin? Bet some coin, win a thing!"

"You really want that thing," a second figure urges, tapping at the wheel with a cane topped with a raven's skull. Also masked, this host isn't especially flamboyant, but something about them just seems... odd.

"So go ahead, spin the wheel! You know you want to!"

Sah

Sah eyes the proceeding warily. The two figures are far too suspicious in their vague familiarity.  The colors, sounds, and smells of this event are a bit overwhelming for the Outlander. However it's too intriguing to simply leave. Coming to a decision, Sah eyes the area contemplatively.

Perking up, he spots a nice tree and promptly climbs it until he reaches a suitable branch. Settling in, Sah relaxes and begins to observe the crowd. He'll see what this 'wheel of fortune' is all about. Perhaps he'll join in, but for now he'll let others test the waters. Sah really doesn't feel like getting randomly attacked or bit like the last time such a weird occurrence emerged.

Sah arrives and climbs a tree to watch the event. He's not spinning the wheel in this post.

My soul is in the sky
-William Shakespeare

So I pray to hands

And I pray to needs

Sam had come to see what all the fuss was about, and he'd found it - the wheel was massive, garish and impossible to miss. He eyed it with suspicion, finding the location and it's hosts smacked of Old Gods, but he hadn't seen anything that warned Ascended from attending. If they were going to murder him here, well...at least it was a kind of fun location.

He'd never been one to back away from some good old peer pressure; when asked to spin the wheel he walked up to it, hesitatingly but surely making his way towards it. "Okay, I'll spin it. Um, so I just..." Reaching forward to grasp the edge (or handle, or whatever might be appropriate), Sam gave the wheel a slow but firm pull down, ending with a swing of his arm that set it going.

Hopefully this wasn't a mistake.

Sam is spinning the wheel! I'll spend 100 MP :D

And I pray to blades of grass

To find forgiveness in the weeds

SAMUEL

Base Code by Sky!

Finally, a chump brave young soul approaches!

The hosts watch with vicious glee as Samuel reaches out and sets the giant wheel a'spinning. And round and round and round it goes...

And it lands on a big fat nothing.

"Oh, what a shame, what rotten luck!" One of the hosts shakes their head.

"But just think," says the other, "It could always be worse! Want to try again?"

RONIN

the dark star

Ronin wants a thing. He really wants to win a thing. And he's nearly vibrating as he shuffles up to the wheel, the carnival music singing through his veins, his blue eyes bright and entranced as he watches it spin round and round. We'll ignore the fact that Samuel is here (because this is a nice fun SWE, right kids?), Ronin instead clapping his hands together and nodding.

"Okay, I'll give it a go. In fact, I'll give it two goes," he announces, marching up and reaching to spin the wheel. And then to spin it again, come what may. This ought to be good for a laugh... or y'know. With Caido's luck, it might just kill him.

Ronin spins the wheel twice!

He uses a free spin from this thread: (SE) step on paper thin glass
(Explored a place he's never been with Sunjata: Queen's Gambit)

And I'll also use 100MP for a second go!

i'll get over it
i just gotta be dramatic first
