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. ]

Who: Anyone
When: Day 148-149, evening to morning
Where: HQ area
What: Dem Mushi

[So those of you unaffected are probably going about your day pretty normally, other than the sense of buzzing and liveliness in the air. At this point most of the 3rd level's indoor plant-life has gotten a weird boost but the pace of growing is slowing down again. The effects seem to be.. drifting downward toward level 2 and level 1 instead.

However, quite a few of those who are affected will find that their condition is worsening, possibly in rather alarming ways.]


((ooc: I (ceesoo) will be running out to a movie soon but I will definitely work on threading effects tonight and all day tomorrow o7! Karri will also be here to run some escalation this evening as well. PEOPLE WHO ARE AFFECTED BY FAR-SEEING MUSHI, I AM CLAIMING YOU GUYS so you may not get a response while I'm out but I WILL DO THIS THING AS SOON AS I'M BACK. I AM HERE AND SHALL REMAIN SO UNTIL THURSDAYISH

People who picked their own mushi, feel free to tag into this post too and I can embellish on what's happening to your charas.))

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.

[personal profile] fill_the_blanks
Who: People
When: Day 147, morning and on
Where: 3rd Level
What: Something odd?

[So hey. People in apartments A through H on Level 3 may be experiencing a bit of oddness. Any plant-life that they've recently gathered and brought back to their apartments seems to remain unusually fresh, or in some cases even start developing shoots and sprouts not long after they're brought back. Plants that are potted seem even more vibrant and healthy than even Thusia's naturally vigorous flora might account for (especially if those potted plants have been cleansed already).

AND for those people who are sensitive to the natural world, or sensitive to spirits and that sort of thing, they may notice, when walking through that particular hall or hanging out near or in the baths, that they might start seeing things out of the corner of their eyes. Something barely there, or wiggling or drifting and disappearing, like the specks one sometimes sees in their own eyes.]


((ooc: Just a bit of foreshadowing mingle-thing for the Mushi Event this Saturday! Feel free to notice the slight surge of nature-y-ness! Or use the post to play with other mingle things.))

When: Day 1435, morning, later
What:

[ How you guys doing? Feeling good? Happy reunions all around? Lovely dreams?

That's nice. Anyway here's some shit happening this morning:

- A certain dormant shrine (spoiler: the ox skull) has begun spilling fog out the mouth and eyes. Soon a thick layer of haze covers the shrine room floor. Around the shrine, though, it rises like smoke until the skull can barely made out. To those who have been suffering from nic fits, it probably smells real good..

- In the 5th level shrine that was planted for Lupe, a number of her scalywolves have begun to sniff around the ground. What's up with that?

- In other locations, you might feel like SOMEONE IS WATCHING YOU. Also it's possible that the crazy bitey woman is literally standing there staring at you.

- Or maybe you are totally far away from all of these things and want to stand around talking about your dreams? ]

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.))

When: Day 144, morning
Where: HQ
What: Some more intros

[It seems like some stragglers from last night's arrivals might be showing up at the shrines this morning.

Meanwhile, down on the 3rd level, at the portal room (that empty room next to the baths), a god is putting up a counter similar to the one that indicates when the portal to the rainforest ruins opens (morning and evening on even numbered days). Shadows slide up the wall and form around the existing counter, expanding it so that there is room for the new information:

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!

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.

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!))

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.]

When: Day 133, night
Where: The lake
What:

[It's still cold and snowing, and there is an AWFUL LOUD noise outside.

Even from far away, you can see it: there is an ENORMOUS MASS of green glow-in-the-dark, thick, massive vines that are actively crawling from the forest and pouring themselves into the lake. They are going deep. How deep is that lake?

The lake is also glowing itself as they pour in...]

[Did you enjoy the party, Thusia?

No?

That's a shame. It's over now, at any rate. The very moment the sun breaks over the horizon, all of you are quite back to the way you were before - putting aside any injuries/hickeys/drunken spring break-esque tattoos - like it never happened at all! Except that it did happen, of course. And you remember all of it. But you know.

If you did experience a change, you'll find - attached to your clothes, in your apartment, somewhere - a scrap of paper. It says on one side, in messy handwriting:]
