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. 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: Anyone, but especially troublemakers
When: Day 141, late-morning onward
Where: Throughout HQ
What: Community Service

[So just before noon, a simple transformation takes place throughout the HQ.

Residents who have damaged or vandalized the HQ, who have taken part in real fights and caused injuries to their fellow residents, who have brought in live specimens of nature and let them run or grow wild, will find themselves suddenly engulfed in a shadow! When the shadow passes they will find themselves in a maid or butler outfit, generally of good taste, but almost certainly not what they would prefer to be wearing. Each outfit comes with a silvery pin or brooch, with the wearer's transgression engraved on it in a short sentence...

However much they struggle for the first hour or so, the outfit refuses to be removed, shed or torn articles simply dissolving into shadow and reforming prim and proper where they belong. They may find a note in one of the frilly apron pockets or tucked into their vest that reads:]

"It has come to my attention that residents may require a gentle reminder that vandalizing the HQ or harming others should be discouraged. You have been found guilty of one or multiple transgressions and will be asked to perform some community service in an effort to ensure that the reminder stays with you. Please report to the Level 3 kitchens at [YOUR SHIFT] to serve your sentence.

~Selyir"


((ooc: THIS IS A MINGLE FOR THE EVENT. I decided to make is separate in case people wanted to play out reactions to being stuck in a dress. People will also be free to harass servers while they're at work in the next post so it is perfectly fine to hop straight into that one and skip this one.))

Who: Muirin, Natsume, anybody. Mingle away.
When: Day 139, Evening to night.
Where: Kitchens; outside...?
What:

[ As the sun sets and chilly darkness begins to settle onto most of the land, an almost eerie noise rises-- a voice, a song, carried by the wind and entirely unintelligible. It's melodic and horribly, achingly sad... Those who follow the voice outside may find Muirin holed up in a secluded spot on the riverbank, out in the open to soak up the best of the moonlight despite the cold breeze.


Meanwhile, inside, a young fox is making use of the public kitchens to prepare one or two of those large fish and whatever fruits and vegetables she could find into a variety of dishes-- it certainly smells wonderful... ]

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... ]

Who: Everyone
When: Day 137, morning
Where: Anywhere
What:

[this morning, regardless of how long you slept or how much you slept, you don't feel rested at all, like there's something in the air unsettling you. Whatever it it, it's on the tip of your tongue, but you just can't seem to place what it is.

It probably doesn't help that the cold is just cold enough that getting out of bed isn't all that appealing]
[personal profile] 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.]

When: Day 133, late afternoon/evening (forwarded dated a bit)
Where: Level 3, kitchen
What: tea not-date?

[before the sun fully sets, there is a scruffy-looking man puttering around the kitchen, making tea.

... though he's obviously not that great at it.]

Where: In & around the Shrine Area on the 4th Level!!!
What: come say hello why don't you

[okay, well

in all honesty, she could look a little happier, but there's something about finding yourself in a super strange place after all the super fun stuff she's been through that makes it hard to smile and say anything other than:]


Ah...

[at least she can look around? and wander? and seem just the slightest bit bewildered???]
