Dodge This! a dare event (OPEN)

[★pitamin]

ABOUT

DODGE THIS! is a sports-punishment game mixing together the popular physical education sport dodgeball with punishments similar to those seen in the television show Fear Factor.

Contestants are expected to survive in a fifteen minute dodgeball match, the teams randomly shuffled. Those who hit by a ball are out and cannot return to the game. Those who have been hit must complete a mystery task that is randomly assigned to them. Good luck!

HOW TO PLAY

Prior to the event, contestants participated in a dodgeball event that determined when they will be picked in the show. However, this is not something we will have to worry about. Have you character go up when someone else has completed their challenge. THe dodgeball pre-game was only to give the name meaning. In this game, contestant's actions are randomly selected by two generators, you can choose between either generator.

The first generator is interactive with other players. Contestants will read the challenge to themselves and must complete it without telling anyone what it is. The only ones aware of the challenge are the host, producers, and audience members. This challenge could span over multiple posts depending on the nature. Many of them being back-and-forth posts mainly between the challenger and person in question with other member interactions on the side.
INTERACTIVE CHALLENGE

If you would like your character's name to be personally added, like this post.

The second generator is more Fear Factor dare styled. Contestants are blindfolded and must complete the dare without knowing what it is. Spectators will be shown the dare. Those who are doing these dares would normally have range one or two posts, many of them describing the challenger's dare with character interaction on the side.
DARE CHALLENGE

If the generator's punishment does not apply to you, feel free to tweak it or refresh the page.

If you have an idea for any new generators or wish to add on to an existing one, PM me with a link to your own or the topics you would like to see added.

HOW TO WIN

If you liked the way someone completed a challenge, 'like' their post to award them a point. These points will later be added as individual / member votes for the AiDORU competition.

The fresh-faced host grinned handsomely as the cameras began to roll, his features showing few signs of his mid-age. He held a hand up and waved, greeting the crowd in his grey semi-casual suit. The stage was fun, hip, and colorful, though rather small, the atmosphere was enjoyable and laid back. A large television screen sat in the back, displaying different camera angles of the show and idols. As Saitoh Tokuma walked on stage, the young audience applauded in unison with the idols and special guests who were seated in a stand on the side of the set.

"Welcome, welcome, welcome!" he exclaimed as the cheers began to die down. "I am your host, Saitoh Tokuma. Thank you for joining us today!" The audience broke into a soft applause as the ebony haired host continued to speak in his usually quick pattern. "So today is a special day right? We have quite a lot of idols here who are ready to embarrass themselves for you guys." he extended his hand as if he were presenting their seats while he read off the cards.

"Along with the fan contestants, we have Afternoon Delight, GEM247, KiNGS, SUPER☆RANGERS, and sheeP here today - quite the cast, I'm surprise we were able to afford it." Some of the audience laughed along with Saitoh's chuckle. "So without further adieu, we should start, right?" the ebony haired man asked, nodding at the idols with a goofy smile.

He looked back down at his card, introducing the first challenge of the day; "Today's challenge is..." a prerecorded drum roll was played as the audience members patted their thighs, mimicking the sound. Saitoh looked up at the camera dramatically, giving his signature eyebrow raise. "-- Dodge This!" The crowd clapped on cue with the announcement as the host walked over to the group of seated idols. The attention was then turned to the television screen which began to play an abridged version of the game. The audience laughed at the funny moments, "ooh'd" at the impressive ones, and watched intently as the battle unfolded.

After the clip was done, the focus was returned to the corner of the stage where Saitoh and the contestants were. "It feels so weird being around this many famous people." he grinned, "A lot of you guys are way younger than me and make more money than I do." A few chuckled, Saitoh ran a hand through his flawless hair with a smile.

"So I'm sure you are all familiar with this game. You basically just have to complete one of these mystery challenges." Saitoh smirked as he wiggled the cards in his grip. "The dodgeball game you played earlier determined when you will get picked for the challenge. Are you ready?"

"First one up is....!"

[Ayano Takagaki]

something is wrong with the sum of us that i can't seem to erase how i can i be the only one without a smile on my face" ....Tayano Takagaki!" Upon hearing those words, she thirteen year old's heart dropped. Obviously, she hadn't done even exceptional in the game of Dodgeball, and had gotten herself out almost right away, by trying to catch a ball, and not even managing to do so, dropping it out of her hands. It was absolutely humiliating. But, perhaps she could own up to it in this game, and perhaps she can show those watching out there that she can indeed be good at something. Just not....dodgeball..... Inside he mind, Ayano was giving herself a pep talk, telling her that this would all be okay, and that she would do good, at whatever dare it was that she would be given. Hopefully not anything too embarrassing, because they wouldn't do such a thing to her, would they? She stepped up to the host, her face grinning despite not feeling so giddy on the inside. She then turned to the camera, giving it a wink and a thumbs up. "Alrighty, let's do this Host-Chan!" She beamed, hoping that she was staying well in character upon doing this. Considering she was on camera, where millions of people could very well be watching her, it was very, very important that she make sure that the crowd like her. Now, as long as her dare wasn't anything too awful, this would all go over nice and smoothly.  The host didn't look to pleased with the peppy miss Tayano, and for fairly obvious reasons. He was obviously a man who was....proud of himself, to out it nicely, and was offended up her not coming up with his name. She was only thirteen, and having a bit of a nervous breakdown inside, how much could you expect out of her right now?! Toying with his hair, the host faked a smile at Tayano, while still sending her a 'knock it off' message. "Yes, it's Saitoh-senpai to you though, wouldn't it be?" He commented, for some oddball reason getting some laughter out of the audience for that comment. Mentally, Ayano rolled her eyes at this. The crowd did eat up everything a celebrity says, especially if they are fans. I guess that's just how they are, expecting to like what they say, and liking it just because they are who they are. Never before had she really though about it in that way, but it did sound legit. "But now, on to reading Tayano's dare!" The host continued, bringing the show along once again. Oh right. That.  Ayano nervously eyes the stack of cards that the host had inside of his hands, and her heart stopped for a moment as he shuffled it all around, pulling up a single, white card, words written in bright red ink. She eyed the man's hand as he pulled out one of the cards, and handed it down to the short young idol. Quickly, Ayano snatched up the card, reading through it hungrily. Her heart dropped, her whole body even felt as if it had just been thrown off of a thirty story building. She didn't survive the impact. Head feeling a slight bit woozy, she took in a deep breath. Obviously, this had to be some kind of joke. There wasn't ant way that she was going to do something as...as ridiculous as that, and they weren't actually gonna make her do it, right? She did however, very well knew that she was going to have to do it. She needed to. No way no how was she going through with something like that. No. Way. Despite her mind roaring at her to chicken out, she...she knew that it was something that needed to be done in order to redeem herself, and so, taking a deep breath, Tayano Takagaki winked at the Host with a smile. "Dare accepted!" The crowd cheered upon hearing this, which made Ayano feel at least a little bit better. At least this would be for something. This was going to be for her fans. This was going to be for everyone out there watching today. Gosh darn it they better like it, because for sure she won't. She turned over to the other idols, eyeing a certain two of them n particular. Which one...? Neither of them seemed like decent choices what so ever, and even though she acted all happy and cheerful on the outside, there was no joy in her mind, and still did she want to turn down the dare. But....it just needed to be done, it just needed to. The crowd watching her every movement, and what felt like her every though, she knew that she needed to act fast. And so, she did. Taking just a moment or two to make up the very challenging choice, Ayano Takagaki prayed to the lord that this was going to get a big reaction, and so, without much of anything else being done, Ayano said, "Okee, here I go!" And with that, off she ran, down to a certain violet-haired boy. The room was completely silent for a moment, especially on the moment when her lips met his. Her eyes remained open, and her face went completely pale. It always went pale rather then blush red, for whatever reason when embarrassed, though because of the current level of it, she wouldn't be shocked if she was completely see though by now. It lasted a good twenty seconds, and then, the dare as over. It took those watching, as well as the idols a few moments to comprehend what they had just seen, before cheers and claps could be heard, as well as some whistling and hollering. Afraid to look the boy in the eyes, Ayano did anyways, giving him a cold hard stare before turning to the crowd with a sly smirk.  The host looked excited, and called out t everyone, "That sly little devil" He began, giving Ayano an opportunity to laugh despite not feeling up for it. "Tayano just kissed Hasegawa Yuu!" Yes, yes she did, and it was so wrong, in so many ways..... 1050 words, made by akemi of btn

Aime squirmed, feeling very much uncomfortable. When she had first showed up at this game show, she had figured a simple game of dodgeball would be all there was to it. She wasn't very athletic and hadn't really tried very hard since she knew she would lose anyways, and thus had been struck with a ball only seconds after the first idol had gotten out. But what Aime had neglected to realize was that afterwards, she would be competing in this dare event.

Silly Aime. She was in Japan, after all, and game shows in Japan were rarely simple.

After seeing what the first idol's dare was--the poor girl had been dared to kiss a member of the popular idol group KiNGS, and just from the strained look on her face, Aime could tell she had been quite scarred--the young dyslexic had started to get more worried. The other problem was that she couldn't properly read her dare. She would have to ask the host for help.

"Let's see who our next victim--excuse me! Let's see who our next contestant will be," the host suddenly called out, snapping Aime back to reality. The audience let out a laugh, and Aime whimpered slightly, knowing it would be her name that was called. "And...AiMETHYST, get on up here! Since you were the second one hit with a ball, it's your turn."

Aime drew in a deep breath, plastered a huge grin on her face, and jumped to her feet. "Yay! Here I come, Saitoh-san! I'm sorry to all my fans that I couldn't survive longer..." Giving a slight bow to finish off her statement, Aime skipped up to Saitoh and stood there waiting, her mouth trapped in that famous wide grin. The host flashed her a sly smile and began searching around for a card. He eventually settled on one and handed it to Aime. Aime took it, looked at it, and cocked her head. She then tugged on Saitoh's shoulder and waited for him to lean down.

"Could you read this for me?" she pleaded. "I tried to read it on my own but there are a couple words that are giving me trouble."

Saitoh nodded and muttered the words of the dare into her ear. Aime listened, nodding when he had finished to show she understood, and then turned back towards the group of idols.

You must pretend to be in love with a member of SUPER☆RANGERS.

This dare in mind, Aime worked to select her target. She rattled off the names of the members in her mind; Ariake Raiya, Tachibana Arun, Ginjiro Shiro, Hitori Sakura, Nakamura Kentaro, and Uehara Tsubaki. Half of them were either too old or too tall for her, from what she remembered (or saw). In fact, when she thought about it, there was only one idol that made sense--the leader, Ariake Raiya. Even if it was pretend, Aime wanted to choose someone she'd be the most comfortable with so as to best complete her dare.

This decided, the young brunette giggled like she thought a flirting girl would and skipped over to where her target sat. "Excuse me~, Ariake-kun~, could I sit next to you? It's oh so lonely back with just the girls around, and I think it would be more fun to be around you~..."

Aime followed this up with a cute pose and a shy smile, wishing she knew how to force herself to blush. That would have been the icing on the cake. She had never really been in love herself, but she had seen lots of other girls flirt their ways into relationships. Wasn't this how it was done?

The host seemed to almost smirk at her, which made Aime feel that maybe she wasn't doing horribly. Satisfied, she added another girly giggle before waiting for her target's response.

dear me ❀

The first girl up had been rather interesting. She had a lot of life, and in television, that was usually a plus. The dares though, the young teen concluded, were somewhat sadistic. 'Kiss a member of yada yada' was almost asking for a deathwish by fangirls, and Raiya couldn't help but laugh at the expressions of the fans around them. That girl would have hell to pay later. The second girl was one of the GEM girls. The blond wasn't a fan, but he knew the other celebrities as well as they knew him. It was in the unwritten job description to know others around you, and the latest happenings in the world. They were supposed to be the role models for their country, and had to lead them in that way. He watched from where he sat in a row with his group mates, mildly interested, but mostly tired from the game of dodge they'd played earlier. He was decently athletic, and his small size gave him agility where he lacked in strength. But of course, teasing bandmates had him out third by betrayal. 'Who even hits their allies?' He thought, pouting a bit at that, but continuing to watch the show without complaint. Raiya snapped out of his thoughts as the girl approached them. The look on her face was foreboding - subconsciously, he scooted closer to his group members as she got closer, until she had taken his seat entirely, leaving him on Sakura's lap, arm slung around the older teen's neck without care. The giggles of the audience were ignored as she did that girly thing with her eyes, and he widened his in a mixture of curiosity and horrification. "Excuse me~, Ariake-kun~, could I sit next to you?" "Why?" He asked flatly, brows furrowed in suspicion. She wasn't going to kiss him, was she? "It's oh so lonely back with just the girls around, and I think it would be more fun to be around you~..." "Well, of course it is!" He exclaimed, putting his free hand on his hip and cocking his head forward just so, eliciting high pitched 'kyaaa!' noises from the aunties in the audience stands. "But Aime-chan, that's my seat and you took it, ne." Turning his attention away from the younger girl, he signalled Saitoh over with a royal little wave. "Dare, please." He smiled sweetly, a demanding palm offered to the man to which a card was placed. The little leader looked at the card, and in less than half a second, he grinned a grin befitting of the cheshire. The dares, as he had concluded earlier, were sadistic. Only this one was sadistic in his favour. Ariake Raiya must kiss H, Sakura. If there was one thing he'd learned about said groupmate in the months they had been the Super Rangers, it was that he was not at all accomodating to the touchy-feely habits that Raiya had. And that, decidedly, was what made him so much more interesting.  Turning to look up at Sakura, he wondered how the dare should be carried out. The other group's Takagaki-chan had already done the whole lips thing, and Raiya was sure that if he tried that on his group mate, he'd be in for it later. He had to be original if he wanted their group to stand out more. It was his job as leader to make sure it happened, too.  In one sweep, the arm around Sakura's back moved up to push the teen's head down towards him, and Raiya's free hand grabbed his hat to cover their faces from the cameras and audience. This wasn't about completing a dare, but rather putting on a show, and the program's ratings depended on it, as well as their memorability level.  In reality, all he had done was cast the illusion of kissing, like a bit of imaginative magic. A hat covered the truth of just faces in close proximity, Raiya's mouth in a mocking kissy face. Placing his hat back on, he gave a lopsided grin to Aime. "Wanna switch seats? You can have the Sakura-nii cushion if I can have my seat back."

LAIKA OF GS!

She'd almost fallen asleep. Or rather, she had fallen asleep, but Hikaru had only closed her eyes for a few minutes! Stifling a yawn, she watched through half-closed eyes, eyelashes fluttering slightly as she noticed an idol from GEM247 receive her challenge. The brunette leaned back further in her chair and smirked, watching the younger girl struggle. It seemed that after the tiring game of dodgeball (in which she'd gotten out rather quickly, sports were not her thing), she'd been so tired that after closing her eyes, she'd missed the first contestant. Too bad,' she thought, holding back another yawn. It looked like it had been quite a funny challenge too, judging from the audience's reactions. The GEM girl's challenge soon passed, it comprising of a confession to one of the SUPER☆RANGERS, and the very same SUPER☆RANGERS, Ariake (she did know his name, she was a fan after all), stood up and "kissed"  one of the other SUPER☆RANGERS, Sakura-kun. 

She cracked her knuckles and watched the affair silently. From her vantage point, she could tell that the blonde hadn't touched the other boy's lips at all, choosing to fake the entire scene. Ah, he was no fun at all~ It would have been rather exciting if he had kissed his fellow group member. She'd started fiddling with the ring on her pinky finger when a loud voice interrupted her inner musings and announced-

"And next uppppp~ Hikaru~!" the host called out, a huge smile on his face. The sheeP leader's eyes widened, but she quickly relaxed, and pinned a wild grin on her face. "You've been picked for a special challenge!" the man boomed out, producing a plain black bandanna. Hikaru nodded slowly, smile still plastered on her face. Saitoh tied the bandanna around her face and paused, for dramatic effect. "Audience, take a look at the screen!" Chuckles broke out from the audience, along with a gasp or two. "Now, Hikaru, over here..." The host led her over to the right, and she swallowed. "All right," she said brightly. 

She heard the sound of heels walking onto the stage, apparently to place something in front of her. "I'll help you out here," Saitoh said jokingly. He guided her hand downwards, and Hikaru felt cold water shock her skin. Suddenly, something moved against her skin, and she flinched. Something slapped against her palm, and she gasped. And when that something started to wriggle against her arm, she yelped, taking her arm away and pulling off the bandanna. "T-this is?!?" she gasped out, eyes opening and showing some (mostly real) shock. 

Saitoh challenges takahashi hikaru to put hand in bowl of live squid!

Perhaps now would be the time for another giggle, if Aime weren't so confused and slightly horrified by what had just happened. She had started to apologize (in a supposedly flirtatious way, of course...perhaps an "I'm soooo~ sorry~..." instead of a normal "sorry") to Raiya for taking his seat, but had paused when she realized he was about to receive his dare. The brunette had assumed it would be another normal dare--what were the odds he would receive a dare to pretend to be in love with a GEM247 girl? They could put on quite a show if that happened--but instead, the dare had apparently been to...kiss Hitori Sakura.

Aime's mind had become quite bumfuzzled after the blonde's little display. Had he actually dared to literally kiss another boy? Had the hat been a tool to obstruct a simple "fake kiss"? Did Aime imagine everything?

She was snapped out of her thoughts when her "object of affection" then offered to switch seats--and, by that, Aime guessed he meant, "You sit on my group member and I'll take the actual seat." Clearing her throat to get herself back on track and reviving her shy smile, Aime giggled again and proceeded to twirl her left long clump of bangs with a finger before answering, "Oh, but wouldn't it be better to share this seat~? I wouldn't mind letting you sit on me if you wanted to, Ariake-kun~..."

Satisfied but still slightly confused and a bit horrified, Aime continued twirling her bangs while she waited.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw one of the sheeP members--Aime couldn't seem to remember her name, probably because she was so focused on maintaining her act--go up to receive a dare. The poor girl was blindfolded and then had her hand placed in a bowl of...was that squid? Aime was somewhat fond of the creatures herself, but judging by the unfortunate sheeP girl's reaction, she guessed that said girl didn't like squid very much. Aime removed her hand from her bangs to applaud her lightly, then returned to looking at Raiya.

[Rinko Shiraishi]

_{we'll be the} stars _{we were} always _{meant to be}

Honestly, Rinko was just glad she wasn't the first one out in the dodgeball match-- she wasn't the most athletic person around, so even that was an acceptable, small victory for her. She memorised when her position in line for the challenge, and her heart beat faster in anticipation as the sheeP idol finished her dare. Drawing in a breath, she waited as her name would inevitable be called.

"And now it's time for Ricchan!" the host called, and Rinko hopped out of her seat like she'd been electrocuted and bounded over to Saitoh, hopping over to his side. She flashed a smile and waved to the audience while he picked the her card and handed it to her. Rinko didn't look nervous, but she was freaking out on the inside. Takagaki had to kiss a KiNGS boy, Aime was...acting weird with a boy from SUPER✩RANGERS, and that boy had to kiss one of his group mates! At least she had to be safe from that sort of "special challenge" with the live squid. She read her card, then read it again as if there was something wrong with it. Well, "wrong" was quite subjective, given what the others had done already...

She managed a playful smirk as she tried to figure out her plan of action, then slowly took a few steps forward, towards where the civilians were grouped together. Quickly, she randomly picked her target, honing in on a young man with charming reddish messy hair. Rinko swung her hands behind her back and began to walk his way, swaying slightly as she went. This was so weird. Who wrote these challenges?

Rinko purposefully looked down at her shoes a a moment after she stopped a few paces in front of Amuro Bunei, trying to look shy. Shyness wasn't part of her idol image, but she wanted to try something, so why not. "Ah, excuse me," she started, looking up at him though her head was still angled down slightly, peering at the man through her eyelashes, "this is going to sound weird, but..." Rinko hung her head lower and sighed, embarrassed.

"But I've noticed you since the moment I saw you here," she said quietly-- or as quietly as she could when she had a mic attached to her collar. "There's something about you I feel deep in my heart, and I can't explain it. All I know is that I know you're very special. That's why...that's why..." Rinko took a deep, audible breath and raised her head up so she could look at the civilian properly. She had a determined look on her face and her hands were balled into fists. I can do this! If this were an anime, she'd be the shy character who finally worked up the knowledge to confess, which was exactly the kind of character she was trying to embody.

She knelt as gracefully and as carefully as she could, considering the short skirt she was wearing. "Please marry me!" Rinko blurted out, hopefully in a convincing way that would fit a person who couldn't hold in her feelings anymore. She noticed the glittery ring she wore on her left hand, and pulled it off to add the finishing touches to her performance. "Please accept this!" Rinko lowered her head in a bow and presented the ring to Bunei in her open hands, her heart beating wildly against her chest. Please be okay please be okay pleasebeokaypleasebeokay...

◤ ◥ ✖ I HAVE NOTHING TO DO TODAY but to smile. TAGS open // event NOTES first post in awhile... man these dares are cute and funny~.     The older sheeP member always believed that she wasn't very good at most of the things she did, and sports was definitely apart of that list. She could only try he best at the dodgeball event; she, despite of what she thought, wasn't the first to be hit and out of the game but rather somewhere middle. Though the brunette was sure that she spent most of the time dodging rather than hitting others with the ball as she preferred to play it safe and go for the obvious dodgeballs when there was few idols left on the opposing teams. However once she tried to go for one of the balls to throw, that was when she was hit. Now was the less-active part of the show, something that she preferred compared to the earlier game. Unlike the fellow leader of hers, Akane observed the other idols as they did their dares. It was the first time she had been in such a famous crowd, or at least face-to-face. And though she kept quiet, only nodding and giving occasional smiles when needed, the brunette was quite nervous indeed. After all, she was sure that this event could boost her band's popularity greatly so she had to do her best! For the sake of everybody else of sheeP! After all that's what a mature member does, and that's what the young woman wished to strive for. She watched with shock when the Afternoon Delight soloist gave a kiss; could have of been her rather cliche views on kisses are only to those that you liked or the fact the young girl didn't seem to be disturbed whatsoever. Either way, the brunette was taken back. Then there was the GEM member that flirted with a member of SUPER☆RANGERS. Though the blonde boy only seemed to be wary of the girl's advances towards him, moving onto the lap of a fellow member of his. The next dare went to the very same young man, another dare on kissing. But only this time, it was a boy on boy kiss! She could only imagine all the buzz around that by the fans now; yaoi was rather mainstream these days, wasn't it? Nevertheless, the brunette continued with her observations, however with each dare she could only fill more and more anxious because very soon it would have to be her turn. Oh, how it was eating her up! Would it be one where you had to flirt like the GEM girl's? Or was it a kissing one!?! Akane's cheeks flushed as she continued to wonder and grow more sidetracked -- even to the point where she was no longer watching everybody else but in her own little world. She didn't even notice Hikaru's and another girl's nor when her name was called next after the blonde girl was finished with hers. "Akane-san?" "H-Hm?" the brunette muttered with a blink, back from her daydreams. Akane looked over at the host and then realization came to her mind. It was her turn now. An uneasy and embarrassed smile surfaced on her face and she uttered the first excuse thing that came on her mind. "Oh! I'm sorry. I was lost in the excitement thinking about my own dare." The host only returned a bright smile to her with a small laugh. "Well the dares can certainly be exciting, yes? And speak of the devil as well! It's your turn Akane-san." "Yes sir," the brunette nodded and gently took the card handed out to her. Slowly she glanced under it, her brown orbs reading the first letter before taking a clear look at it. "Ah..." Confess to the Host! Well this was certainly awkward. But she had to do it -- this was sheeP's big break, after all! Hikaru had done her share so it was time for Akane to do so as well. I must do my best, for everybody at sheeP. Even though her thoughts were determined and positive, her cheeks were tinted a little. With a small breath, Akane glanced over at the said man and spoke calmly yet with a tinge of shyness, "Saitoh-senpai, may I say something?" "I don't see why not." "Well I have to say you're very hard-working, funny, and kind. Um... It's a pleasure to be apart of your show and finally getting to meet you in person. While I finally have to chance to say it, I... I like -- love you very much." Akane stared straight at Saitoh and he did the same. A small laugh came from his lips, probably from amusement of her confession.

MADE BY AYU OF BACK TO NEVERLAND (★) ◣ ◢

[shirane katsuya]

Katsu would love to believe he was athletic. The athleticism that he claimed to have, sadly did not show through the game of dodge ball. He had decent skills for everything except for the action that was the namesake of the sport. Katsu being a rather inattentive person was atrocious at dodging. So half-way through the game he was pegged in the chest by a ball when he was looking somewhere else. He wanted to applaud the thrower too if he knew who she was, he was pretty sure it left a mark for awhile due to power of it. The dares that were brought up were ones of a typical game show, but it didn't mean he was anything less than entertained. The first girl was hilarious, if only due to personality alone. The GEM girl went to confessed to the leader of SUPER☆RANGERS, who then went to kiss his own teammate. He snickered when Hikaru had to touch a live squid blindfolded, perhaps it was own entertaining to him due to her being their group leader. Then again, his humor was rather simple and it was simple to make Katsu laugh or at least chuckle slightly. His brow went up at the next dare. He began to grow slightly weary for his turn when the girl had to purpose to a random person. He only could cross his fingers that his dare wouldn't be remotely close to hers. He couldn't help but feel a pang of pity for Akane. Whoever made the challenges seemed rather sadistic, having her confess to host like that. He started to fiddle with the hem of his shirt waiting for a name to be called."Next it's Katsu!" Katsu jumped up to his feet at his name being called. "Yes!" He exclaimed, giving wide grin and took the card from Saitoh's hand. He scanned the contents and he felt the corner of his lip twitch slightly. Okay, so he didn't have to be worried apparently. It wasn't the worse thing that could happen to him, and Katsu was rather happy to do it. He was also rather lucky that he got someone he actually knew. He was about to walk away to do his dare when he was stopped by a hand on his shoulder. "Huh?" He asked confused on why he was stopped. "You'll need this," Saitoh answered, placing it in Katsu's hand. A slight lump started to form in his throat. He didn't need to worry, he's held a microphone billions of times. The dare wasn't even bad, he didn't have to go kissing, confessing, or proposing to anyone. Katsu exhaled sharply and nodded his head as thanks. He'll do his best, especially for sheeP. He arrived at his destination, standing in front Ayuki and gave her a warm smile. Please forgive me if embarrass you, Katsu thought. "Uh, so this song is for you!" He said, and raised the microphone and started to sing. The song was rather dear to him, it was the one he practice over and over when he aspiring to be an idol. It was also the one that he used for most of his auditions. The words seemed to be embedded into his memory, as he easily sang it without having to think of what the lyrics were next. Midway through Katsu was able to relax more as he grew accustom to singing by himself in front of a crowd. He finished the song, and gave a small sigh of relief. It went without a problem, and he patted Ayuki on the head before muttering softly to her, "I hope you liked it." Katsu gave one last smile to her as someone took the microphone from him and he headed back to his seat. murk™ @durp forgive me orz it's been too long since I last RPed

[Miho Hidaka]

So far the game show experience hadn't exactly been particularly kind to Hidaka Miho, who gladly sat and watched everyone else accept their challenges first. Athletics were not something he was particularly gifted at and therefore the dodgeball portion had been problematic. He'd given it his best effort of course - the fans would expect nothing less of the cute blue haired sheeP singer. Somehow he'd actually managed to avoid getting hit immediately, maybe in part because he was slender and could move gracefully as if it were a dance. Eventually he'd been pegged right in the bottom, which still kind of smarted as he patiently awaited his fate. Maybe he should've asked if he could stand up.

The challenges all the idols before him had to endure did nothing to reassure Miho that he wouldn't be horribly embarrassed in front of a nation of potential fans. Some people had to kiss another idol, which made him both terrified and brought a blush to his cheeks. The possibility of one of the male idols having to kiss him made Miho secretly kind of happy; it might be the only way he could experience it . On the other hand guys were scary and Miho wasn't sure that he wanted one he didn't even know very well to make such close contact with him. But worse fates awaited still others!

A couple of girls, including Akane, had to confess to someone that had been randomly selected. Seeing sheeP's big sister figure 'confess' to the host of the show really worried Miho. He wasn't sure that he could handle approaching someone random and telling them he was in love with them. Especially if it was a guy who, though being a guy and thus kind of scary, was still pretty cute. Hikaru had to put her hand in a bowl of squid which was kind of icky but more tolerable than confessing to someone or kissing them. Then Katsu was challenged to sing a song to Ayuki. Miho was a little nervous around the resident guy in sheeP, but the challenge didn't seem so hard. Provided of course you could think of something to sing on the spot, which Katsu did an admirable job of.

Then came the words Miho had been dreading, "Next up... Miho!"

He gulped, but then switched into full idol mode. This was a chance to do his group and fans proud! For them he'd take on whatever challenge he was handed no matter how embarrassing it was. With a bright smile and a spring in his step Miho sauntered up to the host, waving to the audience and camera. That's right, for the fans! They offered so much love and support that he felt obligated to do this to reward them further than just performing would. Mental images of himself having to kiss someone or confess weren't enough to stop him from looking as cheerful and perky as always. Then he was handed the challenge card.. and a microphone.

Miho blinked, looked down at the mic and then stared at the card for a moment. No kissing. No confessions. Sure he had to approach someone he didn't know and do something for them, but it wasn't so bad. The only trouble he had was recalling the names of the other groups' members. He knew those of Afternoon Delight pretty well, so this girl had to be in GEM247.  Which one was M, Yuki?  It took a moment but then he recalled her appearance.  Relieved that he didn't have to do anything too embarrassing, Miho was all smiles as he gingerly stepped over to a spot just in front of his victim.

"Yuki-san, I really hope that you enjoy this," he chirped, then stepped back to collect himself for a moment. 

Thoughts cleared and nerves under control, he bowed to her out of respect for a rival. Then his smile returned as he launched right into a cheerful song that was well suited to his girly personality. Singing a song for another idol was kind of weird but performing was performing. This was a tune he'd been practicing hard in order to expand his personal repertoire beyond those songs he knew by heart. At least those he knew that weren't sheeP songs.  The challenge performance wasn't limited to singing either, as soon he was dancing a little to accompany his acapella rendition. When he finished Miho struck a pose with a big cheeky grin and a 'v for victory' hand sign. This concluded he bowed again to the GEM247 idol before returning to his seat feeling better about himself.  Even if his bottom still hurt from the dodgeball incident.

[Yuki Minase]

Ready to Rock She'd done well in dodgeball. Really well. It brought out her competitive side, and though she didn't look strong, she had the strength, endurance and grace of a GEM247 member, and the sheer stubbornness of being Yuki Minase. The first part didn't matter if you didn't have guts! She wasn't going to accept defeat! Yet, she found herself in the loser's area after taking a graze. After taking down Shirane Katsuya of sheeP, it seemed like the other team started to focus on her, since she'd lasted a long time and could clearly play. A dodgeball ended up rushing past her leg. Or so she alleged and contested when the others declared 'hit' via virtue of it grazing her. A line ref quickly came onto the field when she said she wasn't out, and smacked her on the forehead with a paper fan. "If you weren't out we wouldn't have said you were!" She yelled as she hit her again. It made a loud noise, but it only stung a little bit. Still, Yuki defended herself and cried out as the audience laughed. After all, this was for the entertainment of the crowd. Also for herself, too! She didn't mind the dares, only the losing bit. Yuki laughed as she watched her fellow idols make fools of themselves in one way or another, to a lesser or greater extent. She wondered what she would get as Katsuya finished his song. It was quite well done given the impromptu nature of it, and very fitting, given sheeP's lesser standing with the other groups. It would probably give them some more fans. Evidently it wasn't the end of sheeP's performance, as Miho came up next, and had the same challenge. Although this time, she was the recipient of the song! She listened intently, even getting into it a bit. Yuki thought of joining the girl, but it wouldn't be fair - it was her chance to shine, and she didn't want to upstage her. Here, anyway. Instead, she applauded enthusiastically and cheered. "That was great! Looking forward to more stuff from you!" "Glad you enjoyed it, because it's your turn now, Miki! Come on up!" Yuki stood up and almost ran over to Saitoh, unable to hide the grin on her face. "Oh? You're actually looking forward to getting punished now?" He held out the task for her as the audience chuckled. "I still don't think I got out, but I will accept the challenge. It should be fun!" "Fun? It's supposed to be a punishment! What kind of girl are you? If you keep saying stuff like that you'll get something really bad!" Yuki just grinned as she looked at her task. Hopefully the audience enjoyed the banter going on. "Ah..." This... was going to be tricky. Saitoh instantly picked up on her reaction. "Oh? Is the punishment too much for Miki? I did warn you..." "H-hey! There's no way I'm gonna back out on this!" She had very mixed feelings about this. It was similar to Rinko's - she had to propose to someone. This was annoying, since it meant it wasn't original. However, where she had to propose to someone in the audience, she had to propose to the leader of SUPER☆RANGERS, Hitori Sakura.  It didn't help that she was a bit of a fangirl for the group, given their role in anime openings.  She paused for a moment in thought as she tried to think of the best way to go about it. Sure, she could just ask quickly, but that was no fun. No, she was going to make a proper show of it. Even if it was a bit nerve wracking. She put the note in her skirt pocket, and walked over to Sakura. OK, Yuki, act your heart out! The girl took a deep breath before starting. "Sakura-kun. When I first laid eyes on you, I knew that there was something special about you. However, I didn't know what it was until you sang Acceleration. It made my heart beat three times faster." Some people in the audience laughed at this - they clearly got MSG reference. "Mighty dragon, will you allow me to be your princess? To be yours, as you shall be mine?" She knelt down on one knee and pulled out the piece of paper, holding it up to him as if it were a ring. "Will you be my bride?" Ah, I said it wrong! It seemed like the crowd noticed that she called Sakura her bride. But like hell she was gonna correct herself. She'd stick with it! Yeah! It's much better this way, anyway! Yuki blushed a little as the audience laughed, but chances were the audience wouldn't be able to see. She'd just pretend that this was on purpose.

► Yuki Minase must propose to Hitori Sakura!

[Sakura Hitori]

Miho Hidaka

The blonde's irritatingly friendly hand on Sakura's back pushed the fair haired's head close to his. Too close. Was he leaning in for a kiss? Either way, Sakura was only seconds away from punching the little brat. If only the audience could see the angry glint in his eyes, if only the audience could see any of his emotion! Raiya's hat was conveniently placed before them, hiding their awkwardly close heads. What was this anyway? Some kind of trick? Sakura couldn't wrap his head around what was going on... But in the end, his fans may believe that he's enjoying whatever this is... He could hear their muffled hollering from the other side of the hat. The boy inched away, putting his hat back on his head before giving Aime a crooked grin. Sakura, unsure what to do, looked at the audience blankly before shooting Raiya a confused scowl.

He watched as the other idols completed their dares. Some having to do gross things like stick their hands in some squid or something others had to do things as simple as sing a song to another person. Some kids got confessed to, heck even a civilian got proposed to and completely rejected the girl. The show was completely weird and embarrassing but both the idols and audience seemed thouroughly entertained. Except for Sakura, he only tuned in from time to time, thinking on how he would execute his dare challenge. What would he be chosen to do? Confess to one of the cuties on stage? It was the idol industry so naturally, there were a lot of cute girls present. Or maybe he would sing a song to someone? Something so moving or sexy that all the girls in the room would immediately fall for him! In that case, what song would he sing anyway?

His train of thought was interrupted when a pink, twin-tailed character approached him. What was her name again? Mi...Mi... Something Mi. He flashed her a charming grin as she took a deep breath, a confession soon followed. He nodded, the girl's compliments feeding his ego, and his smile grew wider. He could hear the audience laughed so he laughed along with them, thinking that he would look stupid if he didn't. He continued to soak in her chivalrous words, taking a mental note so he can use them to pick up a girl later. And so the long awaited words finally came;

"Will you be my bride?"

Woah, hold up.
Bride?
Bride?

The fair haired was pretty stupid but he was eighty percent sure that he knew the definition of bride. The lady at the wedding, with the dress and bouquet and veil...! Sakura was not a lady at the wedding, with the dress and bouquet and veil! He glanced at the audience who laughed, enjoying the fact that Sakura was addressed as a bride. His crimson orbs traveled to Yuki who looked as if it were totally on purpose.
Wow, that's cruel.

The fair haired stood up, his usual handsome grin clear on his face, he could just play along with it at least. He looked at the pink haired idol, his scarlet moons glistening with false wonder. "I would be honored to." He said as he reached for her fair hand, placing a gentle kiss on her knuckle. He flashed a wink in her direction before turning towards the audience, raising her hand in his. "I'll be the manliest bride I can be! From here on out, I'll protect you with my heart!"

There were a few mixed reactions from the audience, some chuckled at this surprising stunt, while die-hard fans fawned over the whitenette's words.

From the corner of his eye, he could see that he elicited a chuckle from the host.

"I must've done good."

He thought with a satisfied smile. Just as he was about to take his seat, the older man spoke in his direction.

"Not yet, you're next." Saitoh grinned.

"What? Me? Already?" the RANGER blinked curiously, pointing his index finger to himself. "I thought I was last."

The crowd laughed in unison with the host, Sakura chuckled along nervously. What exactly were they laughing at? Was he funny? Maybe he should consider a job as a comedian after this...

Sakura's ego seems to have forget the embarrassing moment of how he struck out. The moment where he noticed the cute referee and tried to hit on her, briefly forgetting that he was in the merciless game.

The host poked the idol's arm with the corner of the card, folding it over with his fingers. Excitedly he took the card, reading the words plastered in red ink.

Confess to a sheeP member.

sheeP?
Those new kids on the block?
Ha! Just glancing at one of them would send their heart a flutter, imagine what confessing would do to them.

His scarlet orbs traveled across the room, looking for a certain cutie in the guests' section. The girls were cute, no doubt - they were idols of course - but no one seemed to really stand out to him... They weren't his type per se. With a soft sigh, he settled on a certain blue haired girl who had already completed her dare. What was her name? The RANGER wasn't exactly sure. He could pull it off without knowing, right?

His crimson moons flicked over at the blue haired sheeP, a charming smile filling his handsome features. "Hello, princess." his smile twinkled. "I couldn't help but notice your radiating beauty. I think this is love at first sight." He handsomely ran a hand through his fair hair before flashing a wink at the sheeP member. "I'm Sakura Hitori and I'm in love with you."

[Miho Hidaka]

Everything was going swimmingly for Miho after he'd sung to Yuki, the singer from GEM.  It really made his day that an Idol from a more successful and established group would give him such high praise for an impromptu performance.  He was of course here first and foremost to promote sheeP by giving a strong showing when they had such an unusually large audience.  Their fan base might grow exponentially after this show aired and give them a real chance to become better known across Japan!  Miho also wanted to make friends with other Idols even if they were in supposedly rival groups.  Getting the approval of one of them for an impromptu performance was a good first step towards that - maybe they could talk outside of the show later?

With his dare complete Miho was able to sit back and enjoy the show as the rest of the idols who'd yet to step up were given their own.  He felt very satisfied that the audience as well as Yuki had enjoyed his performance, even if he'd had to do it on the spot.  It was being accepted as a girl idol, part of his biggest dream in life.  Miho was smiling happily as he stifled a giggle when Yuki went up next and had to propose to Sakura Hitori from SUPER RANGERS.  Adding the bit about the boy being the bride brought the giggle out anyway.  Nice to see the idols having fun with their dares no matter how embarrassing they were.

He realized he was probably safe from others' dares, being that sheeP was less known.  For some reason he expected the show's producers to have loaded the dares with the better known idols as components.  To increase viewership.  It kind of made sense even though it made him kind of sad to think of it that way.  Some day sheeP would be better known too, and then they wouldn't get the short end of the stick!  Maybe he just really hoped that nobody else's dare would involve him.  His mother was watching the program and he was sure she'd become overly concerned for him if something really embarrassing happened.

Then it happened.  Sakura Hitori was pulled into his dare next and began looking around at the guests' section. Miho immediately started thinking don't look at me... don't look at me... as the boy's eyes seemed to be narrowing in on a target.  Boys still scared him, though ones from his school were a lot more terrifying than just a male idol.  That said Hitori was a handsome young man and that made Miho incredibly nervous. He liked guys and getting the attention of a real looker wouldn't help him maintain his composure very well. No amount of wishing away attention would prevent the RANGER from settling on him for his challenge.

It was textbook sensory overload.  Crimson eyes zeroing in on Miho as prey for whatever dare he'd been given by the show's host.  That wonderfully attractive smile that surely drove legions of girls mad.  Then his words.  Miho had never been called princess by anyone besides his mother and in a derogatory manner by a few classmates at school.  It was hard to figure out how to react when a guy was calling him that but without any malice behind it.  Being confessed to right there on national TV, with the hand running through Hitori's hair followed by a wink and the cameras almost certainly training in on Miho for a reaction! It was all too much.

Miho's eyes were like a deer in the headlights as he tried to think of some way to react that didn't involve fainting.  He knew this was all just part of the game show but this was something he would never have expected to happen in any situation.  A handsome guy saying he loved Miho.  Saying he thought Miho was pretty.  Of course he didn't mean it and it was just part of the show.  Somehow that made it worse, like the show was toying with Miho's feelings.  As such thoughts occurred to him tears started forming in Miho's still-wide eyes and he started trembling just a little.  Miho also blushed a very deep red worthy of a cooked lobster. 

"Th-thank you.. I really appreciate it," was the best he could manage while his thoughts were such a jumbled mess.  His trembling stopped enough that he could think clearly enough to add, "N-Nobody's ever confessed to me before.. eh.. thank you."

[Bunei Amuro]

B unny couldn't believe it. Here he sat in the same room with GEM247, the girl group who occupied his every thought; they were his life, his obsession, he couldn't wipe the wide, dumb grin off his face. He could glance to his side, turn around, look before him and see a member of a well-known idol group - this opportunity was more then he could ever ask for. Who would think that an orphan would end up in the same room with over a dozen celebrities? He mentally thanked the Original Poster of the trending topic he saw on a GEM forum, his parents for conceiving him, and his family for supporting him. A whole acceptance speech was recited through his head as if he were receiving a Grammy, complete with a standing ovation. The college student watched eagerly as GEM members received their dares, admiring their angelic presences. Aime was just as sweet and cute as he imagined her to be and her flirting with SUPER RANGERS' Raiya, he couldn't see them not being a couple. Ah, but then Raiya had to kiss another male! It ruined Bunny's "ship" a bit but the girls sure seemed to love it. Next up was Takahashi Hikaru of sheeP, a group Bunny was rather fond of because of their hometown style. The beautifu leader Hikaru had her hand dipped in a mysterious, oozy substance, Bunny could only cringe at the thought of him doing it. She bared through, however, though her reaction was quite enjoyable. "And now it's time for Ricchan!" Bunei heard the host call. The twintailed GEM member whose voice was unique and charming. He absolutely adored her stage presence and how she appeared on documentaries and shows about the group, she was a definite second to his bveloved Miki. Ah, if only he could brush shoulders with a GEM member, they were all so perfect in his eyes. Bunei released a casual sigh, admiring the grace of the GEM member. The way she innocently swung her hands, rocking playfully as she made her way towards him. Wait. Was she coming this way? She was coming his way. Or maybe she was going towards someone beside him. "Ah, excuse me..." Bunei's suspicions were confirmed. Rinko Shiraishi was indeed talking to him. Best. Day. Ever. She prceeded to speak, a hint of girliness laced around her innocent words. He blushed a bit, a dorky smile forming on his features. "That's why...that's why..." Ah, how cute. And so the proposal came. Completely unexpected, straight out of the left field. Now if this were a "I like you" ordeal, he would have been totally fine with it. But a marriage proposal? The fact that this was only a dare slipped his mind for a moment. A wave of guilt swept over him as he prepared the reject THE Rinko Shiraishi. Despite this, his demeanor was just as cool and friendly as before, just a hint of sympathy was added to his voice. "I'm really sorry but my heart belongs to Miki-chan!" Ah, he said it. He confessed his bias in front of everyone. Not that it was a secret. But an embarrassed sting still flushed his cheeks, hopefully the goddess Yuki wasn't scared off by him. He returned his attention to Rinko who was kneeled before him, clasping her hands in his. "I still love you, though!" he beamed with a jovial tone. At least this was all for entertainment rather than a real life situation. A response to the former situtation would certainly leave him in a pickle. -- "Mister Amuro Bunei?" the host called, looking into the crowd of guests. "That's me, Mister Saitoh!" the redhead rose from his seat, his hand up in the air. "I like your energy," the host grinned as Bunny made his way to the front. "Hopefully your energy will shine bright through your dare." He outstretched his arm, handing the college student the folded dare. "Ja jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan~" Bunny hollered lively as he read the red ink. Bunei mus propose to A. Akane. "Ahhh," he muttered as he scanned the crowd, trying to identify the girl. His chestnut orbs landed on a short haired female, her appearance beautiful and mature. "Wow, you're really pretty Miss Aakane!" he blurted out, his eyes twinkling innocently. "We should get married some day! I'll wait for you!" -- His beloved Yuki Minase had confessed to the SUPER RANGER member. She even added the term "bride" to the confession. A slip of a tongue or a playful tease, her proclomation of love was precious either way. The red head glanced at the handsome teen, ahh what a lucky lad, the things Bunei would do to be that guy. The fairhaired male soon proceeded to confess to a sheeP member right in front of Miki! Oh the poor twin-tailed beauty, if only he could be her consoling shoulder to cry on.
