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!

Pearl 🍃 Hibiki Fujiwara

[personal profile] windsongs 2023-02-26 08:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Pearl
Timezone: PST
Contact: Pearl#7619 or [plurk.com profile] impearls

Character Name: Hibiki Fujiwara
Canon: Original Character
AU Plotting Post Link: Here
Plans: Hibiki is not a fan of the princess, believing that murder is never Okay, and with little to go on as to why she would need those supplies... She will waffle on this, but will inevitably choose to protect the princess, if only to have her tried for what she's done to the neighboring kingdom. There's no right answer here, but she believes the princess should have to live with the consequences of her actions. Or be put to death for them. Either way, she won't have that blood on her hands.

In OFF land, Hibiki is getting signed up for auction by a very well-meaning family member and she is going to cringe out of her skin over the whole thing. Even more so if any of her students see her (hint hint). One would think that her being uncomfortable with the whole thing means that she will be a shrinking violet in this situation, but it will have the exact opposite effect. If anything, this might trigger some of her competitive streak, so she will be doing what she can to get the bid as high as possible, even if she has no intention of going on a serious date. Who wants this musically-inclined bachelorette? Please save her.

Other: Not necessarily event specific, but Hibiki will be looking for someone to train with, since she's going to get smacked with a lifetime of combat muscle memory. Basically, if you want your character(s) involved in her ongoing training montage, let me know!

Hi Dana, nice to meet you! I agree, I love this suite already but the one bathroom situation is going to be a struggle. Three girls with longer hair, rip all around.

I'm also down for these two having some history if you're interested? I'm not sure how much of an overlap they have, but I think I saw that Rin is a crime princess? Or am I making that up.

Also GET BETTER SOON!

SO MUCH LONG HAIR rin has never lived with this many people before but she'll tsunly enjoy it..... even if she'll never say so

also 100% this is so cute!! i'm trying to think of what it could be. maybe when rin was younger and her family still had money she used to get music tutoring from hibiki?? though she would've eventually stopped going after her parents passed taps chin

and thank you so much ♥

I love this angle, any thoughts on instruments. She normally plays guitar, piano and cello as well as sings, but I'm happy to shift focus for AU version if you have an immediate preference. Hibiki likely would have still tried to keep in touch with Rin after her parents passed, if for no other reason than because she is a shounen protag who can't leave people alone worrywart. I'm fine with them losing touch if that works best for what you have planned.

Also oof dead parents, something these two can bond over... :')
