ON WORLD: PRINCESS PARADE

Well well well, what do we have here? It seems like Avisle has become something of a new fancy tourist destination for some visiting royalty. Countless airships come and go each day, bringing with them an assortment of… princesses? Oh! It seems like some grand miss in a faraway land is hosting a slumber party, and Avisle is a lovely resting destination for those making the journey.

What kind of hustle and bustle will that bring to the area? Look forward to more details tomorrow! For now, know that the event domain will involve escorting a young princess.

> feb/march choice
Meet Princess Andalina Quartzrosen Pili Majesteria the Third. In the final installment of the Event Domain, characters must decide whether she will live or die.

Andalina is a young girl of 17 years old, the sole member of a ruling family presiding over the small kingdom of Majesteria (population: 550). Over the course of her life, her family has fallen ill to the harsh climate of her country, and passed away one by one, leaving only her. Even so, she is the pride and joy of her lands, beloved by her people as she endeavors to make public works. Improving their lives is her greatest priority. While lonely, she works hard and truly believes in the future of her people. She is set to be named Queen next month on her 18th birthday.

However, Andalina is not without blood on her hands. Last year, she waged war on a neighboring kingdom to gain access to their resources and some very bountiful mines. She was victorious… if one could truly call it that. Her directions were ruthless, leading to a massacre of the enemy and devastation to their population, killing over half of their citizens, including women and children. In a final act of spite, the fallen kingdom detonated all of their mine shafts, leaving only rubble. So you might ask: what did she truly win?

Her life is in the hands of those who enter the Domain. Will you protect this monarch-to-be, keeping the hope of her kingdom alive? Or will you get revenge against this despot, preventing her from causing further atrocities?

The Choice is Yours.
Players must submit their Choice to this toplevel by Friday, March 17th at 3 PM PST/6 PM EST. For a Choice to count for IC consequences and rewards, players must submit a thread of at least 3 comments interacting with the Event Domain.

OFF WORLD: WHITE DAY DATE AUCTION

Haha wow, anyway, White Day is coming! The fluffy princess energy carries over in the OFF world as Crane City truly loves the holiday, given the pure and snow white featherings of its namesake. Dodo, like the rest of the citizens of this lovely little town, is ready to get into the spirit!

Which brings us to the inaugural Dodo’s Doki Doki Date Auction! Kyaaa. ♥ Residents of Dodo will all be invited and heavily encouraged to attend the event (see: you will not be able to leave! talk about house arrest!) and pursue their doki doki dreams. In order to help make this event a success, please help us crowdsource blurbs for all date candidates! (Blurb submissions go live Monday, February 27th.) Players may also sign up their characters for randomized date pairings, just for fun.

We ask all players to only pick one character to sign up for the Date Auction. For players who have more than one, we ask that you specify at this Opt Out Top-Level which of your characters you’d like for us to keep. If you don’t specify, we will pick at random for you! Players who do not want their character involved in the Date Auction may also comment. No explanation necessary, just let us know!

DANA - BUZEN GOU & RIN TOHSAKA

[personal profile] hasteful 2023-02-23 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Dana
Timezone: PST
Contact: pm!! you can also just show up in my ic inbox unexpected and i will love every second

Character Name: Buzen Gou
Canon: Touken Ranbu
AU Plotting Post Link: whabam
Plans: clenches fist. okay. Buzen will lean toward Protecting, but if someone in his group feels extremely strongly about a decision, he will do whatever they want. sometimes you are a weapon first and foremost, and a tool for others to fulfill their intentions. and i think that would be very fun to play with either way. please see my Looking For section for an itch i would like to scratch...

other than that, he'll probably be spending his time bossed around by princesses and having no idea what the date auction is for! :) he's not even sure what a date is? (knocks on his skull and listens to the echo)

Looking for:
» clenches fist. okay drama. i would like buzen to get very badly injured in the final dungeon protecting someone. regardless of whether they choose to protect the princess or let her die, i think something is ingrained in him to end up shielding someone at the cost of himself. unfortunately i think he would do this for literally anyone, even a virtual stranger, if anyone would like to kickstart our cr very hard and fast. buzen would do this (closes eyes) countless times but i think i have the bandwidth to thread it 3 times to start, and then we'll see!!
» ON A MORE LIGHT-HEARTED NOTE,,, someone tell him what a date is, i'm dying. also general explanation of White Day might be helpful,, "buzen has au memories" buzen is ignoring his au memories!
» i also think general modern threads to balance out my first request (coughs) would be fun... shopping for date outfit threads.... having boba for the first time... i'll show up in your inbox with literally anything if you let me


Character Name: Rin Tohsaka
Canon: Fate/Stay Night
AU Plotting Post Link: jajyan
Plans: help me rin would be so torn with this choice and i actually don't know if i can say for sure what she'd do. she might argue and play devil's advocate regardless of who she's with because she just can't choose!!! closes my eyes!!!

alternatively, i think it'd be fun to do some magic lessons! exploration of the duocaeli world! maybe we can even do some guild stuff together i think that would be fun, cross-guild collabs...

Looking for:
» magic lessons would probably be my number one goal to do with rin!! she's getting used to slowly regaining her magecraft but i think that having her go over magic with people and discuss magic systems would be really fun (dies in fate/ but it's fine)
» someone make her fucking pick a side with the domain choice - i love when rin lies about her feelings and she will be doing so much of that, but also she's way nicer than she wants to be....

Other: i don't know which one of my characters to put up for date auction help me

Dana I'm torn do i want to try dating sweet Buzen or debate ethics of murder with Rin??

Both are so tempting but which speaks to you? You have two characters and you're a mod so I don't want to overload you khxhkckhc
hasteful: (➛ now even though they're eating)

[personal profile] hasteful 2023-02-26 02:00 am (UTC)(link)

[personal profile] janescayre 2023-02-28 05:41 am (UTC)(link)
wow look you never know!!!! life is hard ok!!!

but hmm i'm actually thinking i'll just do some closed starters or sth right now because i have guests out this week and even the prep for it has tied me up more than expected. but yes to both of these, i'm so happy to harass your children!
