Coat of Arms - Rose

[crittersheep]

[you find yourselves sat at a large table in the center of a room, the table itself big enough for everyone to have plenty of space to work. There's already paper and pencils scattered across it, ready to use.

One of the walls is lined with shelves and cabinets, full of paint, more paper, crayons, markers—you name it, it's available to you. Need an easel to paint a masterpiece? There's plenty in the closet with canvases to use, too. Want some clay to sculpt your coat of arms, you mad man? There's a kiln in the corner.

It's time to get creative, kids]

An apple, sliced in half so you can see five seeds inside. A dagger is piercing the apple vertically, and a drop of blood drips from the tip. There's a crown around the dagger's handle. The whole design is framed by a border of thorny vines.

FINALLY, A FUN DEMON AGAIN

Re: DISCUSS

Our flock is just loaded with symbolic imagery! The hardest part will probably just be narrowing it down.

Re: DISCUSS

[finalbows]

Thorns around the edges, obviously.

If we don't succeed in this one, I'll riot.

... or just be very grumpy. I'd like us to win something pleasant for once.

Re: DISCUSS

[finalbows]

We'll win if the demon has any taste.

Brilliant!

[debug_mode]

This sounds fun!

[finalbows]

Doesn't it.

Here, now draw me a pie chart with five equal slices.

Lily - the color blue hasn't been censored so it can't be Bluebell. The themes seem evocative of past Lilies, and along with the vibe of vigilance.

Rose - this is us. we're awesome. we love blood and beauty and violence.

Bluebell - peace and love vibes. the predator laying down, specifically under an OLIVE tree.

Weeds - Absolute chaos in the design seems in character for weeds. The bisected flowers and their shadows, the flocks being repped while another flower is alike, separate, yet beyond the rest. Also, process of elimination.

Clover - Truck and dice can be none other. also, the DISTINCTIVE HAT. also, the twin chevrons as, well, the twins. chevron sure is a funny word.

Spotted the Clover.

They did a good job, didn't they. Impossible to miss.

Now we need to guess Bluebell, Lily, and Weeds...? Is that really everyone?

Re: DISCUSS

[strateelgic]

[Cat means Crescendo means Bluebell, right...? Levi's thoughts can't help but go there.]

Would the one with the lion too obviously be Daffodil?

Re: DISCUSS

[finalbows]

I was actually liking Bluebell for the lynx and the anchor, but tell me your thoughts.

Re: DISCUSS

[wants_the_phd]

It says here that Daffodil didn't submit one. Thistle, either.

[finalbows]

Alright. I will now make my case, in full!

One! Lily. The color blue is thematic to the imagery, yet since it was allowed to pass the censors it could NOT be Bluebell! They also have the lad always crawling in and out of the water. It's... obscure, a pick, which in itself feels LIKE them.

Two! Rose. Blood, violence, passion, beauty, the heart. Next.

Three! Bluebell. One, need to put them somewhere. Two, a notable feline. Three, a predator laying down to treaty with... some contrasting creature I'm sure they put a lot of effort into choosing.

Four, Weeds. The bisected flock flowers are my main reason. Setting themselves apart, yet akin, yet beyond the flocks,

Five. Clover.


It has a truck and dice on it.

[wants_the_phd]

Brilliant deductions, Detective Reverence.

Number three also features a chevron, which this documentation we received says represents protection, and silver, which represents peace and sincerity. There's also an olive tree, representative of peace, and a lion laying down with a ... something. Which no doubt represents peace.

I think this is what you would call "leaning in."

[finalbows]

Quite.
