Who: Muirin; anybody. Mingle about.
When: Day 123; forward-dated! All afternoon to evening.
Where: Outside, near the river.
What:

[ It's an uneasonably hot day today, Thusia; while our lizagon friends might be taking part in the warmth from their places on and in the dome, for what the recent weather has been the cloudless sky seems almost like a curse.

Down near the river, it's much better; the water itself is blessedly cool. Perhaps a swim day wouldn't be out of the question? After all, it's beautifully clear until it becomes slightly murkier in the middle... it's hard to see how deep it is, down there. Careful, now.

Those who swim juust a bit farther from shore may notice a figure curled up under the shade of some piled-up stones, though... and not too far from that, a horse-like creature drinking from the shallows as if it were not briny in the least. ]

( OOC: Take a dip, Thusia! The current near the middle of the river will be dangerously fast, and Muirin will snag anybody in trouble or who bothers her! )

Who: Doug, anyone
When: Day 115, morning
Where: 4th floor shrine area
What: Intro???

[ there's a new face wandering slowly around the shrines, looking somewhat at a loss. Standard Thusian newcomer and all, right? ]

Who: Everyone
When: Day 106, All Day
Where: Everywhere
What: Second Post for the Memory Event

[You thought yesterday was a hindrance? You've not seen anything yet]

( OPTION A )

( OPTION B )

[OOC: Welcome to the big post for Kessex's Memory event. The Options are separated below in comments. Only one main thread for each character will be followed by Kessex unless you need/or want him in which case ping me in the Questions and Pings thread.

EDIT: Decided that you can in fact touch some things in the memory, but nothing that will have an effect on the memory itself. As long as it won't cause the memory to shift, you can touch it. Walls, doors, table ware and the like.]

Who: Anyone
When: Day 97, Early Morning
Where: Level 2
What: A Were returns :)

[Swarm of dragons roosting outside aside, it's fairly peaceful this morning. The wet smell of decay still lingers down on level two, drawing out a few harmless scavengers here and there. Nothing too excit—oh god what is that!!

The beast is wandering around the main floor of the level, occasionally drifting towards the stairs with flaring nostrils (how does it even do that with wood—?). It doesn't appear to be aggressive . . . yet.]

[[ETA: TIME FOR BED i will pick up after I finish being an adult tomorrow.]]

technocracy

Who: Anyone
When: Day 92, Evening
Where: Level 4
What: (=!

[So if you didn't notice, this morning some giant ass feathers fell on level 5, and since then red lizagons have been getting more numerous outside. It's probably looking kind of ominous! They've even moved in to the remaining jungle on level 5, making it unsafe to go up there. Fortunately, they are too big to fit down the staircase to level 4, so as long as you are indoors you are apparently safe, for now... But since it takes on average a five man party to kill just one of the huge red dragons, going outdoors is understandably looking like a bad idea....

It sounds like a good time to talk to the community about this serious development! Thankfully some kind soul made a lot of coffee! It smells fucking delicious and there is plenty of it, both in caf and decaf, with a selection of milks and sweeteners if for some lame reason you don't drink it black.

Of course if you actually drink the coffee, turns out it was poisoned with truth serum. Shit!! It won't get worse with more drinking, and one sip is enough for a full dose.

There are also a bunch of little white squares on the table...? You won't be able to read what is on them until you've drank the coffee, though.

If you want the truth serum to wear off, do at least three of the following: 1. Get someone who hasn't yet to drink some coffee, do not warn them first. 2. Discuss one community project that should be completed by the community in the near future for the betterment of the majority. 3. Confess a crime or social failing that troubles you. 4. Tell another what you think would be just punishment for their crime or social failing and why. 5. If necessary learn of, and then let the relevant party know you are aware one of their private insecurities you could leverage against them in the future.

Have...fun...?]

((OOC: Whether it takes doing three of the things on the list or all five will depend on you! However you want to play it, basically.))

Who: Gerasimos, passersby
When: Day 82, mid/late afternoon
Where: Shrine area
What: an interesting occurrence.

[so several of you may be drawn to the shrine area at the sounds of a loud argument.

Afterwards, Lupe is nowhere to be seen and Gerasimos is still standing in the shrine room, rubbing his throat idly]

One thing after another.

((This is the prelude to the event, which will be kicked off later tonight! Gerasimos will be hanging around to chat for a bit but as a forewarning I will be slow!))

besomeothername

Who: Self-appointed Thusian Census Committee and anyone
When: Day 77, Evening
Where: 4th Level Fountain
What: CENSUS (aka getting all your info)

[There is a small group of people hustling and bustling about on this very fine evening. You might notice two people at the level 4 fountain (Chrys and Chrono) asking the people passing by to stop for a few moments]

[Or perhaps you'll run into a very enthusiastic Lenalee or Lavi knocking on apartment doors to answer questions from the comfort of your own home]

[Or maybe one of those empty surveys in the various common areas of headquarters will catch your eye]

[Either way, today is a good day to be interviewed! So come on in and join the fun]

[[OOC: Here we go, Thusia. Trying to gather info on all the residents. You can either bother Chrono and Chrys at the fountain, be bothered by Lenalee or Lavi, or fill out your very own super special survey form. Just let us know in your comment if you are answering a door!

Survey form is here (just replace all the things in parenthesis):

anopenbook

Who: Anyone
When: Day 75, late morning
Where: Library
What: Reading and relaxing

[Red is reading

sadly for you, he is reading aloud today]

His lynx eye immediately perceives the paper, recognises the handwriting of the address, observes the confusion of the personage addressed, and fathoms her secret. After some business transactions, hurried through in his ordinary manner, he produces a letter somewhat similar to the one in question, opens it, pretends to read it, and then places it in close juxtaposition to the other.

oi_theoi

Who: Dreamers
When: Day 70, All day and night
Where: Anywhere
What: Dream post!

[Perhaps you have all been dreaming of floods for a while now? That would really be no surprise, all things considering. But today any flood waters that enter your dream won't come with torrents of rain, just a slow and ceaseless rise of the tides.

But that really isn't the remarkable thing. What is far more likely is that you will find yourself in someone else's dream, or maybe someone strange in yours? Will you even recognize it's all a dream or will you question what happened when you wake later? Who knows.]

((OOC: DREAM POST!

For those of you who have never participated in a dream post, everyone interested in running a character's dream posts 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 totally assume Rew's power just made your character unreasonably tired at some point. Solitary dreamers will find ocean waters rising in and drowning out their dreams, but Rew won't be making any appearances in this post.))

oi_theoi

Who: Anyone actually awake
When: Day 67, midnight to early morning
Where: Everywhere
What: LATE NIGHT MINGLING

[For you nightowls, party cats, and early risers, if you happen to be up and socializing or hunting around midnight. The electrical lamps go out in a simultaneous, simple wave, leaving only the dim illumination of the dying fairy lights where they hang.]

((OOC: Related here for all your late night antic and early morning needs.))

oi_theoi

Who: Anyone
When: Day 67, Morning
Where: Level 4 and Level 5
What: Killing the fairy light

[So, at some point during the night, a table appeared near the bulletin board, and on that table there are several glass and metal vials full of a dark, black, gooy substance. On the table there is a note:

Caution: Extremely Corrosive Use on the giant fairy light If not helping, stay off of level 5 or you might get rained on with acid Don't waste it]

((OOC: There will be a thread for AT THE TABLE and AT THE FAIRY LIGHT. You can also use this post for general mingling other wise. The fairy light thread will be mod monitored in case input is needed, but overall this is more of a mingle! Absolutely anyone can help with this, and you should assume there are enough vials that anyone who wants to help can grab one, but few enough that it can't afford to be wasted. The fairy light is very big, after all.))

devotedtothecore

Who: Chrysos, Ky, any visitors
When: Day 56, evening
Where: Building F, 4th floor
What: Claim-staking and investigation :|a

[ after hypnoflower shenanigans some of which will probably never be spoken of again, productivity is resuming in different parts of Thusia! Possibly.

At Building F, a set of double doors with a lock has appeared over the previously gaping entryway, with a simple black wrench painted on one of the doors. They stand open for now. Inside, the floors have been mostly cleared of large debris; the rusted and ruined exercise equipment moved to one side of the room. Despite the lack of electricity, the new windows let in a decent level of light.

Chrys stands at the west wall, adding marks and lines to a growing diagram of... something, with a burnt stick. :|a ]

oi_theoi

Who: Anyone
When: Day 55, early morning
Where: The cleared halls and shrine room
What: Something's strange this morning...

[Maybe you couldn't sleep and are numbly pacing the halls. Maybe you're a morning person who's just up this obnoxiously early. Maybe you're a brave hunter who knows all the best kills are at night and are returning fresh from victory... or maybe you could just feel something strange down your spine...

Whatever your reason for being out is... you feel like you're not alone. The halls are just a little too dark, just a little painfully quiet... The hairs on the back of your neck stand up in warning, a shiver shuddering down your spine and for a moment, you feel something WATCHING you.]

[In the mean time, at the shrine room, something black and glistening trickles between the masonry, sliding down the wall... It's a long, still moment before the droplet's path seems to expand, the stones being covered by a deep, impenetrable darkness until only an open, ragged hole remains in the wall.]

((OOC: Gooooooooooooooooood morning Thusia! Let me say hello to you. Tell me where you are in your comments, if you would.))

oi_theoi

Who: Anyone
When: Day 55, late morning
Where: Anywhere
What: Life in Thusia (mingle)

[So, it's still early enough to get a full day's work done, and there's much to do around the HQ.

As people know by now, Level 4 has mostly been cleared of active nature, though farther from the apartments near the stairs there are still the remains of vines and moss and dirt on the buildings and floors. Fallen trees and tangled roots still clog up the area around the buildings which must have once been shops.

Aside from the library claimed by Henrietta and perhaps few other establishments, they are doorless, and inside those abandoned buildings there is still evidence of old equipment and rotted furniture waiting to be re-purposed, broken down for offerings, or thrown out if it's beyond use.

There's not much fresh plantlife left here to collect for offerings, but plenty of cleaning to be done, perhaps in Eizon's name, in exchange for the electricity flowing through whatever fixtures people have acquired by now, or as an offering of kindness in exchange for water...

Up on the fifth level, nature stubbornly continues to prowl.]

Who: Anyone
When: Day 52, evening
Where: Public baths
What: Bath mingleeeeee

[ some people go to the Level 3 baths to relax, others to clean up, and some to socialize.

...and sometimes, they do it just because it's Somewhat Awkward to hang around their apartments when Somewhat Awkward Shenanigans are happening at the time. ]

cloakanddaikon

Who: Any and all
When: Day 47, early afternoon
Where: The baths
What: Nothing particularly out of the ordinary.

[And while people are busy with petitions and late breakfasts and lunches, whole most are well settled into going about their daily routines, it seems as good a time as any to slip into the relative peace of the public bath.

Now, if only it would remain peaceful for the time needed to soak away a day's worth of dust and ash and heavy thoughts.]
