🐲 A Monster Box Post for Friends. 🦄

Do you like weird creatures?

Do you like your character ending up in an inhuman form, maybe an inhuman mind? Transgressions against or transcendence of species?

Classic horror monsters? Beings of the fae realms? Heartless or otherwise machines? Something that started in their canon and took a new turn?

Having a new form thrust upon them by magic, experiment or environment, or something that comes naturally - whether they expect it or not?

It's a box. A box full of monsters. Or ... other transformed beings.

Have fun.

Testing?

[dear_player etc post...]

First icon, you had me looking about twelve. This one, got me looking too old. I get it. Ya gotta put something in the picture so you ain't talking to an abstract squiggle or... whatever. Still kind of a headache... At least you got something that's not some trendy pop boy with perfect hair. That ain't me.

Now, I know the deal. You've been trying to ... get ready for where the other guy's probably gonna leave off for a while now. And... well. Kinda stings, y'know? Feeling like just the latest in a string of throwin' shit at the wall to see what sticks. Ain't like I don't already have enough identity crises. But...

Letting that get me down seems like a waste of time. Not like I've not got more to deal with... Big shoes to fill, huh? ... Or they're probably the same size as mine, but you know what I mean.

So let's talk.

I need my friends. More than anything. These are the guys who've kept me grounded in the mundane sphere for ... four, five years? ... and I don't even know their names yet. ... True or warded.
... Hey, does that mean we get codenames? Huh. That'd be a cool way to think about it.
But when the only name I know right now is that shiny asshole holdin' the remote control, that's not good. (Yeah, things could be worse. Yeah, I got myself into this. Doesn't mean everything's sunshine and roses or whatever.)

The rest of the stuff... That's important, too. Where I live, where my family are... Maybe I'll be able to tell ya over time. Same for the things I've been doing.

But you know that, huh. So for now... Guess we'll see.

Just stop callin' me 'signalbutt'.

-S.

Voice testing/AU shenanigans/etc for Seiji "Sage" Kirishima, an OC based on a CRAU of... etc. 'Hermit Faeries' setting. Nearly taken in by a scheming faerie as a troubled teen, wound up making a contract with another to secure his freedom... more or less. Now works as an agent for that fae patron, gathering intel and interesting data, while working to help others being drawn unwillingly into that world...

World info (cn: faerie mental manipulation and suchlike).

- Hanging out in the real world?

- A mission into a faerie domain or somewhere else supernatural?

- Just chatting on some unknown network?

- Thoughts?

Hey. So we're giving this a go, are we?

Gotta say, this is a hell of a confusing thing for me. This whole thing... Started as some kid in the middle of nowhere in Japan, and then some rock dude on Planet What're-You-Playing-At...
And then you figure, so what. Let me be me. Well, should be able to deal... Ain't the first one in this situation.

Get why you're worrying, though. Hard to hear a voice for someone you ain't heard speaking. All that business about whether you're just writing you, or the guy with the knitting, or any of that... And still got to work on the details. Guess those'll come with time, but hard on a guy not knowing where and when he's from. Or stuff like ... you know, what my whole name is. That's enough to get my head spinning.

More than it usually is these days. With everything that's been going on up there ... yeah.

Get that one too. Is this all just another rip off of what the rock guy was told to do? Or ... what you were told to do with him ... however that stuff works. Don't ask me, never roleplayed except that one D&D disaster session.

But we can try, right?

Test driving in the Morgana car.

Open post!

1) Let's Be Phantom Thieves. Even if there's no canon Thieves involved. Or just chilling in Tokyo. Or something. Inventing some new Palace or target works too.

B) Abusing Synodiporia test drive/Jaunt settings for fun and profit? Will probably play her as some degree of veteran in these for the sake of not faffing with introductions.

III) Texts From The Metaverse.

Δ) Are there any AUs or settings - from Plurk nonsense or elsewhere - that spring to mind for fun times here? Or any 'verses that might be fun to hurl characters into together?

🕔) Wild card! ... no, not that sort.

Notes:
I'm not playing from a romance route as of yet: I'd rather work out voice stuff before attempting any sort of ship with anyone.
I need to rewatch things like crazy - can anyone recommend Japanese voice/English text videos?

AU Roundup, April '16

Any AU ideas? From Plurk, from game spinoffs (the Synodiporia infiltrations that weren't, say): let's thread a thing!

(no subject)

Who: Kanji and Yukiko
What: A special moment.
Where: Tatsumi residence, Inaba
When: November

Honestly, they all needed something good in their lives around now. When the fog was refusing to clear, despite finding the killer and fighting back the Shadows that had taken him over - what was even going on, any more?

But life goes on, even with that. And a dinner with his - Kanji still can't quite believe girlfriend sometimes - was certainly a nice break from everything else that was happening. Not something at Aiya with the rest of their group - something at home, comfortable and a little special. It's still hard to beat ma's cooking, sometimes.

... In retrospect, he really should have expected that she'd break out the embarrassing stories, but still. He can deal.

Afterwards, though, when his mother'd moved on, leaving them alone, with a smile... Yukiko'd had something to say.

"Huh? What is it?" he asked, curious.

(no subject)

...'nuff said.

No, seriously, this is just a 'what if' post for characters who weren't in line for Illuminant shenanigans in Syn canon for whatever reason (wrong side of Jaunt, other plot issues, just didn't feel like it, anything else) to get pulled in and have some multicoloured fun.
This is not intended to impose on/upstage the game canon events, just having some good clean skittlenanigans!

Make things up, go wild! There's a rough 'everyone got wiped/re-sourced at the end of Cursed Kingdom' assumption here but apart from that, everything's open to mess with~

(You put that many superpowerful fae magical incarnations in one spot, looks like timelines get a bit wonky now and then?)

AU Roundup Post: October '15

Have we talked about an AU on Plurk and not played with it? Is there a meme that hasn't shown up for a while, or a game setting that you'd like to play with outside of the game itself (looking at you, Synodiporia Jaunts)?

Let me know here! Let's do something!

Feel free to tag around, too. :)

Velvet!Kanji AU Open Post

"Persona 4 - Aria of the Soul" (Watch on YouTube)

"Yo. Welcome t' the Velvet Room. What can I help ya with today?"

General post for this AU. A few situations...

* Kanji's on duty. Has a guest just visited - his sister's, or his own - or has someone just found their way into the Velvet Room by chance? Though there's no such thing as chance around here.

* In the TV, trying out some new tricks? Chasing Namatame, Adachi, Marie or Izanami? Or just getting some practice in?

* What has this discovery meant for his ties to his friends and family? How does a Velvet attendant's duty interfere with him trying to be a regular guy?

* Trying his hand at tarot readings? He's no expert, but still...

* Dammit, Margaret. Sister's got him running errands in the real world whenever she can - what's it this time?

* Any other ideas?

The Great Battle: open post

There are many stories about mythical or legendary weapons that exist in this world. Excalibur, Gae Bolg, Durandal, Mjolnir, Kusanagi… And other stories still about weapons that have no known name. That they’re more than just tools.

Of course, most people dismiss these as just tales, distorted by history.

They’re not.

( The stories are real, and the battle these were created for has returned. )

Kingdom Hearts Meme

Welcome to the Kingdom Hearts world.

Where light and dark collide, and young heroes bearing weapons of legend stand in the face of the destruction of all worlds.

(...And where the plot gets kind of ridiculous, but eh, let's overlook that for now.)

What are you doing here? What might happen in this universe?

( Enter the door... or cut. )

(no subject)

((Open voice test post for working out this trollbutt.))

1) So. Welcome to the World That Never Was, where Xigbar's chilling out. At least, he looks pretty chilled out...

2) This jerk's teamed up with you on a mission, or for some Organization goal that for once he's got to work with an outsider for.

3) Name an AU... Pokemans? Purse owners? Foggy nonsense?

4) Any other suggestions?

(no subject)

Who: A pair of dorky kids.
Where: An alternate timeline and a world far, far away.
When: ???
What: What should be a simple recon mission goes horribly, horribly wrong.
Warnings: Transformations/body 'horror' (is there a better word for it in this context??), potential nudity, a load of derp.

The Big AU Call Out Post

Interested in any of my AUs? Want to play with any of this motley crew? Here's a place to do so! From the usual culprits to more obscure stuff and crossovers, and a whoooole lot of stuff that expanded from meme threads, this is an attempt to catalogue who's who. A lot of these might be a spot repetitive as they come from the same AUs and from my brain smashing two canons into each other repeatedly. I haven't played threads in all of these, a lot are just 'stuff what got talked over'.
But anyway... Give 'em a poke! And if you know of any AUs I've been involved in, whether as a Plurk what-if or elsewhere, that I've forgotten, please feel free to remind me. Or if you've just got a neat concept that you'd like to try out, same!

( Details! )

go kanji it's your birthday

Who: Kanji and ....anyone?
Where: A Place.
When: Um.
What: Silly palate-cleanser fluff for a change of pace from War, Drama, Nobodies and Fog.
Warnings: hahahahaha maybe for toothache

Suddenly, everything was soft and fluffy. Piles of fabric and fuzz everywhere. The odd stuffed toy falling from the sky.
And from the middle of all of it, a movement, and a head poking through the vista.

"... what the hell?!"

(no subject)

Who: Organization XIII members... new and old
Where: TWTNW
When: Sometime mid-358/2 Days, post-Axel's return from Oblivion
What: Induction for the newbies...
Warnings: Nothing too messy. Possible sob bait.

Thirteen had become eight. Rather, fourteen had become nine, to most of the Organization, but that'd never been the calculation on Xemnas' mind. With their numbers so diminished... it'd been time to recruit. It was so hard to find individuals with the strength of will needed and the sheer potential to survive their new life...

But one world had come up with the goods. Younger, perhaps, than Xemnas had wanted at this stage - but strong enough in mind and body, and that was what was relevant.

Of course, they'd still need training...
