WELCOME & AU PLANNING - MAY 2017

[cordibus]

WELCOME TO THE FIRST PLANNING POST!

Congratulations on being accepted into the game. Now let's have a big meeting post, plan and have fun together!

AU PLANNING

The AU in this game is completely player's choice. We encourage you to take a look at the city and plan accordingly! Your AU information can be added to your character hub, should you desire. As long as it is available somewhere, and others can take a quick glance and know what the character's AU is.

We only ask that you try to keep everything tasteful and respect our decision if we feel you're going too far. As the game begins, you are free to continue using this post to plan or ask the mods first-post related questions. We'll do our best to answer in a timely manner!

The city of Eddan is very much a typical metropolis, so your characters can have any job that would make sense in a busy city. They don't have to be restricted to the school, or have a school job. If you're not sure, don't be shy about asking. There's a lot of freedom!

Roll the dice

There is also a randomized AU signup if you'd like to leave it to chance who your family members are and establish pre-game CR with new people. But if you'd rather leave it for now and wait for other app turns, that's also fine!

GAME START

The first log will be posted on MAY 13TH. Please vote on what time you want it to be posted. We'll go with player majority! (As a note, this will be done for all rounds).

Right now, all I'm imagining right now is-

Michi: HEY I'm here to join the gardening club!
Ciro: I.... okay. But are you sure... You seem too energetic for this kind of club.
Michi: It'll be fine!

A WEEK LATER

Michi: /joined a different club
Ciro: ????

and thus he is forever known as this completely random whirlwind that he had to deal with for a week and still isn't sure what happened there

[kouteipenguin]

BASICALLY. Basically exactly that. Somewhat less raw enthusiasm on the surface, maybe... but it'd go exactly like that.

Michi "why are you even here" Yamashita at your disservice. But hey, the important thing was they had fun, yeah? (You had fun, Michi. Less clear if others did.) There's no point in not trying things.

The best part of this would be the apparent reversal of personality once Michi awakens - that person is still there, but it's buried under so much baggage/weirdness that it's hard to tell. Which would only add even more question marks to the 'what just happened' aspect.

I'm canonblind and also AU problems, lmao, so I'm delighted I got close enough.

If I make a CR chart for this, even if they don't get any particularly indepth threads, I have a feeling Michi's is just going to be nothing but question marks. Keep the mystery alive or.... something

[kouteipenguin]

Ahaha yes. Yes. Canonblind makes this weirder, but the tldr gist is that he was diverted into being a cold person from a warm, open one. In canon he wouldn't act like his AU version, for canon reasons. (I honestly couldn't think of how to keep Kidou's specific personality if he doesn't have his history. He's been warped.) I don't see him being the hyper sort though.

BUT YES.

The mystery is only going to double. The person he was trying to figure out is now replaced by a completely different person. ???? what is going on.

Not even Kidou could (or would try to) answer.
