Dillys continued to work on the puzzle, feeling the stress really push him for perfection. He wanted to complete it but if he did then there would be more stress tomorrow!? The low blood felt sweat drip down his face from his forehead. Why was this so... stressful!?
In the stress, Dillys felt like he was undoing the puzzle that he was almost done with. Ugh! What was wrong with him today!? He'd have to start over and try again! So much time had passed already... he certainly wouldn't be the best today.
Starting over, Dillys tried his best to focus. He didn't have room for errors or mistakes. If he wanted to complete the puzzle today then he needed to put his stress and thoughts aside and pay attention to the colors.
Dillys tried his best to keep patience as he continued to mess with the puzzle. At some point, the colors all started merging... What the heck? Oh, he realized he'd been starting at it for so long that his vision was not pleased with him. Setting the cube down, this was as close as he was going to get today. Ashamed in himself, he rubbed his neck and left.
The hell is a WonderHedron? Deimos had passed by this booth the nights before without giving it much thought, but now that he thought about it... What the <********> was it? The answer was, apparently, an absolute monstrosity of a puzzle. Oh, he had to try this.
Sort of. Maybe.
He'd never been particularly good with the color blocks but he'd try on this one. He felt like he was making pretty good progress shifting the pieces around anyway?
Pan squeaked out a suggestion from his shoulder, and then, predictably, went off on a tangent about a puzzle he'd done once that had been nothing like this one, actually. Garand tuned the chatter out with the ease of practice, twisting the puzzle in his hands.
What. The ********. This was frustrating, but not in a horrible way. No, this was frustrating in a "I absolutely must complete this" sort of way which he hadn't felt in a while. He'd get the hang of it. Almost there- there was only a few colors out of place left. He just had to... sit back and think about it a bit longer before continuing.

Alright- well- this seemed good enough. Deimos still felt as though he could probably do better - like maybe there was something just off about his result, but it wasn't anything worth tinkering with it too much for. Something told him if he kept messing with it he'd just ******** it all up. There just... wasn't a good way to get the remaining 3 pieces lined up correctly. He'd have to come back and try later - it was interesting enough.
He was getting the feeling that he wouldn't be able to solve this puzzle for another night. Already resigning himself to the fact, Garand tried a few more twists just to see.

A word puzzle huh? This would be simple enough. Deimos set to work striking through every word he found on the sheet- some... probably weren't meant to be in there but hey, it counted, right? Once he was done he passed it in to the little troll running the booth. He was reasonably sure he'd missed something but the letters were starting to dance about on the paper by the time he was done. That... was a signal to call it quits.

*Due to the random nature of word scrambles, other words tend to sneak in (particularly 2 letter words). Today’s puzzle had an intended 26 themed words, though many of you found more than that. While judging, I looked for who had found the most of the intended puzzle words, as well as taking into account any additional words I found.
This puzzle was not particularly clear, I realize, and I’ve taken note on how to improve this process and the instructions for future games. In the meantime however, congratulations to Doutei for finding 26 out of 27 words, as well as an additional unplanned 8 words!

Her face lit up in a smile as she went up to Kerras at their booth, and pickled up one of the puzzle balls. They were so odd, like looking into a thousand mirrors, all reflecting some abstract item she could not see. "So," The greenblood started. Kerras was the best listener she knew, now if only she could talk. The greenblood was about to talk about something that was bothering her, but stopped. That's right, Kerras was not a rebel, she wished she could talk to them, but, their world's were too diffrent, something that simply could not mix.
