Pot of Gold 35
Its that beautiful time of the year! Happy Early Halloween! Everyone, please remember the reminder I posted in the middle of September! This PoG doesn’t have any card gathering, but keep in mind for future PoGs! You won’t notice until December, but with all the wonderful new mods, other mods will be taking over PoG different months! No, this isn’t because I hate running it now, it’s because PoG was originally divided! I didn’t want to hog the game to myself! You will still see me, when a month hasn’t been reserved~
Enough rambling! Lets get onto the game!
Congrats to everyone who completed last month's tasks! Good job, guys, keep up the good work :3
The object of the Pot of Gold is to complete different "tasks" that will be different every month. You'll get small rewards for completing them individually, but receive bonuses if you manage to complete all of them. How much of the rainbow can YOU complete? :D
- Everything collected and turned in for these tasks must be done and logged in between Oct 1st - Oct 31st* So you've only got one month!
- When turning in your cards, please post both the card name AND the card image! This is to make sure I'll be able to keep track of the cards that are turned in. Please, this helps so much.
- When commenting here after completing a task, make sure you label your subject with "Completed", as well as the "color" of the task you finished. Also, make sure you let me know if you've completed all of them so I can give you your extra reward!
- Please give me a link to your logs with every comment you make.
- Pot of Gold tasks can only be turned in when the round is open, so that means that after 12:01AM on June 1st, you can't turn in anything even if your tasks were completed and logged in May! Even if you were on hiatus. It's just like with normal games, you can't reply to them once the round closes.
- Also, most of the prizes you obtain from Pot of Gold are valid for a set period of time. Special deck donations, however, are an exception - think of them as tickets that you can turn in regardless of when it was won.
* : If you make a comment at a service or games but do not receive prizes until after the start date, I’ll still accept them!

Waiting at the Underworld's Gate
Twitch.
"I believe we'd agreed upon meeting at nine o'clock sharp."
Twitch.
"Therefore, why is it currently 9:30 and our head count four?"
Aoi-sama's visible eyebrow twitched yet again. Tobi-han, who'd dressed up for the occasion as a werewolf and laid claim to the living room sofa where he was now laying while they waited, had taken to counting how many times the eyepatch-wearing man's frustration had manifested like this. He was currently up to seventeen eyebrow twitches and they seemed to be getting more frequent. Or maybe it was just the pale blue body paint irritating his eyes, Aoi-sama had been quite unenthustiastic about the idea of dressing up for Halloween but once he'd given in to get Mikan-tan and Kou-kun to stop looking at him with pleading eyes, he'd gone all the way with an undead swordsman look. Although it looked pretty uncomfortable so he was probably just annoyed at having to wait in the getup.
...Well, truthfully, Tobi-han wasn't too happy either. Waiting had never been one of his stronger points. The world was too large and fascinating for just sitting around doing nothing. Really, he wouldn't have minded at all if the missing half of the Colors crew finally made an appearance...
"Say, where are they, anyway? Any idea? Akai-han, Murasaki-han, Aoi-han?" he finally asked everyone else in the room.
"You will refer to me as Aoi-sama, fool-" started Aoi-sama threateningly, but Murasaki-dono, sensing the danger, rose from her chair to interject and lay a calming hand on his forearm.
"Now, now, let's all calm down.", she smiled at Aoi-sama before turning to Tobi-han. "Mikan-jouchan asked Gin-kun's help with something and they've been locked up in the basement ever since. I believe Kou-bocchama offered to help as a lab assistant, and Midori-jouchan merely said she was interested in seeing what they'd make. Therefore..." She nodded at the large gray explosion-proof metal door leading to the basement. "They should all be down there.", she finished and, after seeing Aoi-sama had regained his composure, sat down again, making it look easy even in her restrictive Japanese spirit getup.
Aoi-sama's and Tobi-han's gazes turned to the door. They were both eager to get a move on, but opening that door to see what was taking the missing people so long meant entering the realm of Gin-sensei where the word "safety" didn't exist, at least without being followed by the word "hazard". Neither of them showed it, but disappointment flashed in their eyes as they continued to wait.
"Don't worry." Akai-san, who'd been remained quiet so far, broke the following silence. "This door will open and the inhabitats of the underworld will be joining us shortly!", he proclaimed with a victorious smile while pointing a dramatical gloved finger at the door, his vampire's cape fluttering a bit from the movement.
"...So, did that look good? Was it in the spirit of Halloween?", he asked the other three with a small laugh. None of them were quite sure what to answer. Akai-san was... certainly getting into the holiday spirit but he also made it look natural and... not awkward. That smile was-
ka-BOOM!
-shaken off Akai-san's face by the only partially muffled explosion that rocked the living room just a bit. All four Colors Mansion inhabitats momentarily turned to look at each other before all of their gazes moved onwards to the door. No one needed to say it aloud. All of them knew the missing half of Colors was about to make their appearance.
And indeed, less than a minute had passed when the large metal door made painful creaking sounds and collapsed into the living room's direction revealing a cloud of thick gray smoke from behind it. From amidst the smoke, the first outline of a person appeared...
Midori~n, who'd gone for a cyborgish look with certain parts of her body covered by technological-looking attachments, stumbled into the living room, coughing for several seconds before breathing in heavily, standing straight up and opening her eyes again only to meet four inquiring gazes.
"Eh." She shrugged. "Should've expected that from those two, I guess." She took a seat in a recliner without saying another word. Everyone turned to look at the doorway again.
After roughly half a minute the missing people also emerged from the smoke cloud that didn't seem to show any signs of subsiding soon. First up were Gin-sensei, whose costume was simply stitches here and there and a nameplate saying "Frankenstein" over his chest pocket, and Kou-kun who was completely covered by worn-out-looking yellow bandages except for one of his eyes and also enthustiastically speaking as well as he could in the smoke cloud. "That was -cough- a fantastic result, Gin-sensei! We should do it with a -cough- pineapple when summer comes around!"
Gin-sensei merely stoically nodded, seemingly unaffected by any smoke. His line of work had so much of it that he'd gotten used to it by this point. "Certainly, we could try, of course I'd need to make modifications, and of course a new machine seeing as this one just exploded... Shirocchi, Kurocchi, you still have the blueprints, don't you?" The always-present pets riding on his shoulder nodded happily. "Excellent. Then we'll get this Halloween out of the way and then it's experiments, more experiments..." Kou-kun seemed happy, everyone else in the room wasn't quite as sure what to think about this... or Mikan-tan who appeared last.
...dressed as a cute witch and carrying a gigantic orange in the shape of a pumpkin. "Thanks, Gin-sensei!", she shouted after getting out of the smoke cloud. "Pumpkins are also nice and orange, but I always wanted to make one of these! Carving this is going to be a ton of fun!"
Tobi-han felt a cold sweat running down his back as he turned to look at Aoi-sama. He could already hear the "You made me waste my time that could've been spent on far more pressing matters for THIS...?" in his head. Aoi-sama's visible eye was closed and he seemed to be fuming. Murasaki-dono also sensed the danger and made a movement-
Aoi-sama opened his eye. As well as his mouth before Murasaki-dono or Tobi-han could interfere.
"That will have to wait until later in the evening. Shall we be off to trick-or-treat now?", he asked calmly. Mikan-tan, who'd been busy admiring her pumpkin-orange, was shaken back to reality by the deep baritone and looked confused for a moment.
But as the words Aoi-sama had spoken registered in her head, the confused face disappeared to make way for a delighted smile. "Yes, yes, let's! This Halloween's going to be the most fun one ever!", she declared as she ran out of the room and towards the front door. And despite them having heard the same words every year, no one else objected as they followed.
Because, as much trouble as Halloweens could be, seeing Mikan-tan smile like that made it a... fun holiday.
