Who: That kid still hasn't put a shirt on, and his pants are still super tight
When: Day 150, dusk
Where: by the fountains
What:

[ Gerasimos and his tight pants have a blanket set out with a number of dried herbs, ground and arranged each on a small white slip of paper. He also seems to be working on making a number of hemp necklaces- you know, the ones with the little glass beads. He watches all who pass, but calls out to none. ]

When: Day 150, WHENEVER YOU WANT
Where: WHEREVER YOU WANT
What:

[Aaaand here comes that rain. Light at first, but by later in the day it's pretty heavy.]

fuckingnature

Who: All of Thusia
When: Day 148, all day
Where:All over HQ
What:

Since the day before, the strange sightings have certainly increased, and those of you sensitive to such maybe-spiritual things have probably been wondering what the balls is even going on. Surely your spiritradars have been going crazy!

Just overnight, perhaps those of you closing your eyes for a few moments caught the sight of... something, something gold and lively. A line into a trickle into a creek, the tiny flow of light grows as much as its weakened state allows. For some people, it's hard to look at, as bright and beautiful as it is. For others, however...

By morning, things have certainly changed. Those who cannot see it can certainly feel it-- the movements of something in the air, the activity, the excitement of some sort of new life going about its business.

But maybe they're just annoying insects, who can really say?

(( OOC: Mushi event start! Here is the list of mushi that are free to play with to your heart's content! If you want it randomized, you can ping me(Karri) or Link(when she's around) or just toss some numbers into RNG. If you have any questions, PM me on IRC or ping me on plurk! Email works too.

Please note that all effects are heavily increased by Thusia's growth rate-- so what might normally take days or weeks could take a matter of hours. Unless fixed, of course. ))

Who: YOU.
When: Day 146, afternoon
Where: Errywhere
What: A MINGLE.

[Today, there are spiders.

THERE ARE SPIDERS EVERYWHERE.

Maybe they are on your walls. Maybe they are on your face! Or in your hair, or in your food . . . !]

beautymark

Who: Saberlancer + ANYONE
When: Day 145, evening
Where: around!
What:

[One very worn out Servant is coming in from a day of hard work (but apparently fruitless work, considering he's not carrying anything).

He might just stop you!]

Excuse me, may I ask you a question?

[doing something elsewhere? feel free to jack this post for it!]

oi_theoi

Who: Sleepy people
When: Day 144, early evening and onward into night
Where: HQ
What: Dream post!

[With the semi-gloom lasting all day for the last couple of days, it might feel difficult to stay awake. It'd be nice just to curl up in your blankets somewhere, and perhaps some are turning in early because of the weather. Either way, those who fall asleep tonight find themselves inclined to dream. And those who dream will find that it becomes difficult to tell where their own dreams end and someone else's dream begins.]

((OOC: SO IT'S A DREAM POST!

For those of you who have never participated in a dream post, everyone interested in running a dream for their character will make a top-level comment and people comment to that to be in that character's dream. There are basically no rules about how it works! Be a lucid dreamer, don't be, figure it out halfway through, push and pull between who controls the dream. w/e have fun! If you need an OOC excuse to be asleep you can assume Rew's power just made your character unreasonably tired at some point. Solitary dreamers may remember the impression of rising ocean waters and life blooming in its depths when they wake up, though Rew himself doesn't show.))

oi_theoi

Who: YOU!
When: Day 143, afternoon
Where: Kitchen area, 3rd floor
What: Truth, Dare, or Chocolate

There is a table set up with large box amidst a veritable sea of chocolates! A large sign is leaned against the box, reading:

Truth, Dare, or Chocolate
Get to know your companions here! Find a partner or group to play with, and pick a card out of the box. It will either be a Truth or a Dare card. Answer the question or accomplish the task provided to you!

If you choose to avoid the card's task, you must eat a piece of chocolate.

[OOC notes: Each piece of chocolate contains a shot's worth of liquor. Those who successfully complete their cards for more than five rounds with another person will find that their apartment has been fitted with a high powered venting system that will last for a week.]

panumbra

When: Day 141, Late-morning and onward

[Over in the common area on Level 3, at least half of the space, including the public kitchen, seems to have been taken over by Maid or Host Cafe stations. The areas have been sectioned off tastefully with dark drapery or folding screens, and each station has it's own service area where menu items can be prepared or stored. Ingredients for various savory appetizer dishes are provided by Hok, and Luna and Albinia are catering pastries and ice creams. Selyir, of course, is providing teas, both hot and cold.

Slim looking black tables, plain with only a bit of flair on their feet, are set up throughout the area for customers to sit at and wait. There is even a line of them by the windows so people can look out over the hills while they enjoy their orders.]

((ooc: This one's the actual event post! Since the main purpose of the event is to give people a chance to thread with characters and players they don't normally interact with, I recommend logging on to #thusia in IRC so that you can get to know or chat with the player you're paired with! If IRC isn't your preferred method of contact, feel free to refer to the contact spreadsheet for other ways to get in touch with the other player. If you'd like to poke at the maids and butlers, check out the customer instructions!

Old OOC info post
Mingle | Server Instructions | Customer Instructions | Top-level Comments for finding Servers

ETA: OK GUYS, at this point people don't have to sign up anymore, you can just tag in to whoever you like! If you'd like to participate as a customer with cue-card things, try to tag someone you haven't played off of before, and you can roll your cards with the RNG and this list. IF YOU'D LIKE TO BELATEDLY CONTRIBUTE YOUR OWN CUES/PROMPTS like the ones I gave people, you can also add those on the list.))

Who: PRUSSIA AND PEOPLE
When: Day 140, late-morning
Where: outside
What: some idiot who got lost earlier this morning...

[so it's been a while since that flag was put up, and there's someone who's been diligently maintaining it.

you know what makes this difficult now?

CRAZY FISH, HAUNTED FORESTS, AND THE OCCASIONAL MARSH SHARK.

so if people were expecting him for breakfast, they were sadly mistaken. this former nation-world is finally making his way out of the brush covered in muck, dirt, leaves, twigs, and bumps, bruises, and scratches to flop on the ground in front of HQ]

lovedinrain

Who: Juri, visitors
When: Day 140, morning
Where: Apartment E (Epsilon)
What: hey bb, what's your blood type? ETA! Warnings for things involving selfharm.

[On the Bulletin Board is a want-ad:

Hello! I'm a vampire (someone who eats blood) seeking someone else willing to donate a little blood. No biting necessary. Unfortunately I don't have anything to repay you with, but you'll have my sincere gratitude and I'll try to return the favor some time.

Please come to Apartment E on Level 4, right next to the stairs. If you're a hunter, worried about vampires being around, or if you have questions for me, we can just chat instead if you'd like. ♥

Thank you,
Juri Kuran]

[Should you come, the door to her apartment is slightly ajar.]

oi_theoi

Who: Anyone
When: Day 138, late afternoon to evening
Where: The river
What:

[ As the sun begins to set, there's a commotion out on the banks of the river...

Large fish are leaping and splashing around in the water in a huge school, incessant-- the ones that overshoot their fellows flounder helplessly on the banks, caught in grass or rocks and unable to reach the river. They still yet live, gills fluttering and thin mouths gasping for water.

Those close enough may see something strange jumping amidst the frenzied fish... ]

soundsinsilence

Who: Kururu and other early birds
When: Day 138, morning
Where: Up on the 5th floor dome
What: Maintenance

[A beautiful, sunlit morning, the continuing thaw . . . and up high on the dome, there's a particularly industrious mechanic clearing ice from the solar panels.

Most of it goes into the bucket balanced at her feet, but there's the odd piece that slips free, falling to the ground—]

Look out!

fuckingnature

Who: Lizagons + goats + anyone
When: Day 135, noon
Where: Around
What: COLD 8T and other things

[SO HOW ABOUT THAT COLD SNAP?? The lizagons don't seem to be enjoying it much. Despite having moved over from the rainforest they seem more resistant to the cold than expected, though, so at least most of them haven't died or anything yet. Some have even taken to collecting stuff they find lying around to try to insulate their nests: tree branches, any laundry hung outside, the left over fur of animals they hunted...

In fact, not far from the HQ right now, a troupe of them seem to have discovered some new prey on the hills: tan, shaggy goats with fur long enough to make them look like walking mops. Well, fleeing mops at the moment. A couple of lizagons managed to snatch up a couple of them, but something weird seems to be happening to them so the others in their troupe quickly backed off...]

((ooc: slightly slow interacting-with-nature post being run by Link! You're not limited to just interacting with the hunting party, btw! Just let me know if you're doing something lizagon-related (or goat related). You can also use this for other things too. Feel free to poke me on IRC today!))

oi_theoi

Who: you
When: Day 134, afternoon
Where: out in the snow
What:

[The snow continues to fall around the headquarters though it has turned into a gentle thick cover. Outside, a strange noise can be heard on the winds, and if you're at a window or outside, you'll eventually begin to see large clusters of jellyfish-like creatures floating and bobbing through the falling snow in a slow rising and falling movement.

If you go out to get a quick look at them, be warned though, like jellyfish, these creatures trail stinging tendrils beneath them.]

[INTRO: Clear]

oi_theoi

Who: Anyone
When: Day 134, early morning
Where: Anywhere
What: post-happenings mingle...

[the snow has fallen quietly throughout the night and the early morning as the temperature stays low. only on the occasion does the wind kick up enough speed to create a hissing and sighing sound throughout the corridors of the HQ, blowing through the lower levels and the unsealed dome of the 5th level. those who decide to brave their stone floors bare-footed may find it a nasty surprise of winter cold.

the brave souls who were out in the wilds of the forest and the formerly-glowing lake last night will notice there's several more inches of white settled on the grounds. they may also note the calmer weather through the now frosted and fogged windows, the skies growing ever more inviting to those who wish to go out into the cold.

some poor hapless fools may also find that those elevators throughout HQ don't quite work so well when their mechanisms aren't winterized...]

oi_theoi

Who: Gods + Anyone
When: Day 130, early evening
Where: Shrine area
What: New Arrivals

[It's hard for a god concerned with bringing back civilization not to be restless lately--especially with how things had been progressing--Anima's "celebration" probably didn't put them in a better mood either.

Those gods still interested in pulling in new souls seem to have been having a hard time of it. Generally unused to working together in a large group for consistent periods of time, many gods have wandered off or become indisposed in various ways, and the number of them able or willing to donate their power keeps fluctuating. For a while now it seemed as if they were casting out their lines and coming back with nothing.

Even so, they continue to cast out blindly, but being unable to truly see beyond the borders of their own world's realm, to determine what's going wrong, it's difficult to say if this desperate bid has stopped working...

But today, something a little unexpected happens...]

((ooc: GOD SENSES TINGLING: gods can feel free to comment to this thread, to the arrivals, or to the post in general. Non-god charas are also free to tag anywhere, including to the gods! ALSO, slow-tagging and backtagging is encouraged since Iri and Juri players will be busy after tonight. Arrivals that aren't part of the experiment may also use this post to intro if they wish!

~~There were some pre-intro threads for the charas who participated in the experiment which will be unlocked tomorrow. The link to the post will go here.~~ App Experiment pre-intro threads

There is (a bit) more to be revealed in announcements on Sunday.

innerdemon

Who: Anyone
When: Day 129, late morning
Where: 3rd floor, outside Apt. H
What: magic?!

[So Elluka is standing outside Apartment H drawing a painful-to-look-at sigil on the door with their own bleeding fingertip. After each line is complete it starts to fade into the normal material of the door, though. YEAH, SO THAT'S HAPPENING.]

((notes for the psychic/spiritually sensitive at the bottom here))

((ETA: Injured my wrist on late Friday, am trying to minimize threading over the weekend, but I promise I'll pick up all new and old threads soon!! Of course this happens when I really really want to play, right?))

soundsinsilence

Who: Engineers and merpires and anyone curious
When: Day 126, afternoon
Where: 4th floor, east side—the abandoned swimming pool
What: The marvelous marvels of technology

[With the solar panels fully up and running, and the building's functions picking up (looks guys we have elevators!! don't get stuck) there's finally enough power flowing through the walls to siphon just a little off for a side project.

Those on the fourth floor might hear the definite put put put put vrrroooOOOOM of a motor starting up.

More surprising, though comparatively softer, is the hisssssss of moving water, the splash of it hitting dry, cleaned concrete. The smell of salted water, ever so faint, fills the empty pool room.]

Heeeeh . . . there really is enough pressure to get it all the way from outside.

I wonder what they'll think . . .

nometal_alchemist

Who: Anyone
When: Day 125, Afternoon
Where: Level 4
What:

*around the fountain, there's an arrangement of a few tables and chairs, each with ample paper and pencils laid out on it. there's an additional table set with a few cakes and large bowls of ice cream, along with dishes to allow people to serve themselves. this table also sports a drop-box the same size as the sheets of paper, with a note on the front reading "DROP INFORMATION HERE"

there's also a pair of alchemists who've just finished setting all this up.*

((OOC: trading information for cake! specifically information on what people have found while exploring, but anything about the world or wikipedia-worthy is welcome))

growsintheshade

Who: anyone
When: Day 123, Night
Where: where where where
What: something

[Wherever you are, there is a strange creeping feeling that you're not alone anymore. As you lie in your room or pass by a hallway, there is something lurking in the dark. Shadows and stones bleed a black substance that slowly gathers, and there is a sourceless, plaintive hiss in the air--soft genderless whispers all around, as if heard at a distance or right beside your ear.]
