RE: The Grand OC! [CONTEST XXIII: ANGLE!]

I've plumbed the depths of my soul to dredge up these'ere awards, have at thee, fiends!
Best of Show goes to the Radiant Oct, rendering it ineligible for the Backdoor Worldbuilding prize which it could've nabbed without much trouble.
Said Backdoor Worldbuilding is instead granted to Thelst, though due to the fact I don't even know how it incorporated the Angle theme I'd accuse it of trying to Confuse Me.
Above the Fold was not easy, because most of you were out wrangling other awards or interpretations and left your first five to six lines rather sparse. Slorange displays dedication to correct and complete form-filling in a manner befitting one of the Cloth, so that's where the prize goes. If the cards lined up right, I also would've given Synergy like the original Carpet, or ISWYDT for reupholstering said carpet with an Angle bent.
Dalm, with Cyneric, wins the Iron Chef Special Ingredient Award for incorporating the theme in a manner that was neither mathematical angles or fish-pertaining. Bonus thematic cohesion points for her angling to secure the next hosting slot in-thread as well.
Sol would win the Ion Chafe Award for submitting an angel, except that's not a thing so Ariel's profile is the proud owner of a shiny new Diligent Gentleman award instead. A lawful entity with an objection to interdimensional cockfighting would suit the battle format quite nicely.
Synergy was tough - we had several aerially-oriented entities (including an aerial-capable Ariel), but I conceded I was overthinking this and gave it to the character who can magically compel other characters to interact with it (and will need to do so to do anything much interesting in the course of a battle). Congratulations, Melanie Cetidae.
Dini, with Wihtheow, wins ISWYDT. I'm not dignifying this with an explanation, but it's some Four-M grade bullshit.
Finally, An Gull wins the 20Q For Confusion award. How does a bird crack things open with its wings? We just don't know.
That concludes Week 23! Next up, barring accidents, shall be Dalmationer.

peace to the unsung peace to the martyrs | i'm johnny rotten appleseed
clouds is shaky love | broke as hell but i got a bunch of ringtones
eyes blood red bruise aubergine | Sue took something now Sue doesn't sleep | saint average, day in the life of
woke up in the noon smelling doom and death | out the house, great outdoors
staying warm in arctic blizzard | that's my battle 'til I get inanimate | still up in the same clothes living like a gameshow
