Wednesday DE: Here, let me read some poetry

Courtesy of watching too much Take Me Out Ireland recently:

Your character has ended up on reality television, and has to give a demonstration of one of their skills or talents. What do they do?

Wilson might be able to pull off one of those chemistry tricks that creates a lot of spectacle with easily obtained supplies, but if he doesn't have the reagents he needs, I guess he could try playing a One-Man Band. Assembling it on-stage with the power of crafting system magic might give him a boost, too.

Cirava's got musical talent, so they're probably the most in line with a typical contestant out of my roster. Time to compose some chillwave beats.

Bastion might be able to get Ganymede to do something interesting on cue, but if that doesn't count, they could try some sort of trick-shooting routine.

Aradia has like three different superpowers she could use for this, although summoning ghosts onstage might cause some havoc. How do the judges feel about demonstrations of telekinesis?

Thurlow has several minor talents that they could use for this, but the stage magic routine they performed at Mahogany Hall that one time is probably the best bet.

Wormwood, stumped for any other ideas that would work on an indoor stage, grows a bunch of extra wood out of their arm and then karate-chops it off.

All Skate characters:
Purple does knife tricks, Wendy recites depressing poetry, and Yochelm makes elaborate origami hats.

Tess would sing.

Kylo would probably do some kind of lightsaber demonstration.

Creed... would never find himself in this situation. If really pressed, providing he doesn't kill someone, he would probably sing. He's not as good at it as Tess is, but it's passable.

Wanda would do a little magic show.

We blame this on Ray Donovan making Liev Schreiber sing.

Jean raises her hands calmly and lifts everything in the entire room (and maybe even several rooms beyond the main one, depending) off the ground.

Jo would be glad to drink anyone under the table who was willing to try her first, but she'd probably settle for giving a shoot or knife throwing demonstration.

Sara would just look perturbed. What she's best at isn't pretty & it's not for entertainment. If she had to probably a weapons breakdown and demonstration by time period and country.

Marian could sing, though she's still got some tiny hangups looped into that which makes it not exactly something she wants to focus on. But she's well aware she can do it on command and well, and that it could be much worse.

Peter: assuming he doesn't 'cheat' and borrow one of Tony's cars for his 'science project'... he'd probably build a super awesome model volcano that would send the 'lava' high enough to splatter the ceiling

Harry: is he allowed to demonstrate his amazing napping skills? if not - he'll just be a jerk and make the windows rattle by sending 'wind' at them and freak people out just for fun. or, he'll dig out one of the magic tricks he learned from his dad as a kid
