caughtinanetwork | 19: Now this is how you do April Fools.

[So, Vatheon, you've probably woken up to that horrendous and bloody idea of a April Fool's joke caused by nurses and have been thoroughly scarred by the event. What more awaits you on this day of tomfoolery?]

[Like Crowley knows. He's just sitting here at his desk, smiling slightly as he looks over at the SFC.]

That was quite the scare, wasn't it? Idiots. They totally got their information wrong about the holiday. It's supposed to be a holiday full of people making fun of other people, not, well, murdering them. Methinks that someone was accidentally looking at the Halloween entry when looking up information on the date.

But either way, I know many of you come from worlds where April Fool's Day doesn't exist. I know a few of you helpful people who know about it have tried to explain it, but really, most of you are missing the actual history behind it. For there is a history on why April First, of all days, is a day of making fools of one another. It stems all the way from the Roman Festival Hilaria, which was a festival of rejoicing held around March 25th or so. And there are many other events and people in history that made All Fool's Day the day it is.

[And then a shrug.] ...But honestly, I'm not the best at explaining history that much- I get a bit too long-winded on it, really. So, I have devoted my time to writing up a nice description of what the holiday is all about. Hopefully that will illuminate most of you who are beginning to believe this is the National Day of Killing or what not. [An annoyed sigh.] It's not.

[He reaches over to the SFC, and with a click and a beep and a press on the "Send to All" option, an attachment named WhatIsAprilFools.doc should be popping up on your SFC, Vatheonites.]

All the information is there for you to look at. Please enlighten yourself on this holiday, I'd hate for people to be so misinformed. After all, when there are fools, there are always people to take advantage of them...

[And then he grins and turns the SFC off before he can explain what exactly he means by that.]

[ooc: Your character can choose to open the attachment or not, it's all up to them. But if they do, then they will not receive a document on the history of April Fool's Day, but the music of that video embedded in a document file that will play extremely loudly, play for a very long time (1 hour, to be exact) and will be really hard to get rid of. Turning off the SFC will make it stop, but turning it on again will just make it continue from where it left off. Trying to close the document will be impossible (Crowley designed it so you can't exit out of it), and the only way to truly get rid of it is to listen to it for well over an hour or try to appeal to Crowley's good side and ask him to get rid of it. HOPE YOU LIKE YOUR APRIL FOOL'S DAY GIFT, VATHEON. B)]

... But it's just repeatin' the same shit! I'we my doubts it's gonna tell me anythin' differently!

[But... What if it does?]

That's just the beginning. It changes like, halfway. I don't know the certain point, but it does change, I swear.

[He nods, looking ever so certain. Maybe you should believe this guy, he doesn't look like he could hurt a fly.]

[You know, neither did Yuno, but she murdered his matesprit, so SORRY IF HE'S NONE TOO TRUSTING OVER THAT FACT.]

[But... He does seem to know what he's talking about.]

Fine, I'll endure this I suppose, I mean if it's really gonna enlighten me.

[He's going to be humming this for a fucking week.]

[Lucky for you, Eridan, Crowley isn't the murdering type. Just the trolling type.]

You'll be very enlightened, I guarantee it.

[SUCCESS IS HIS]

[A troll being trolled by a not-troll troll. Oh heavens to Betsy.]

Yeah ok.

[Oh he is going to hate you forever after this.]

Good.

[Hey, to be fair, Crowley invented trolling before trolling was cool, so you're playing against a master here. Sorry, Eridan, you had it coming. B)]

[YEAH GUESS WHO'S BACK AFTER HIS SHENANIGANS WITH FEF, maybe he's more calm, even feeling a touch silly over all of that, but still annoyed because WOW you're a huge liar! But, he does get what this is a bout, a holiday for trolling. Humans are so weird, trolls troll everyday, so why make a holiday about it? It's like making a land dweller holiday about breathing!]

You are a codsuckin' liar! But, I get this all now, no thanks to you, you jackass.
