To all villains, world-conquerors, and evil overlords, both present and aspiring:

1. If you ruled the world, would it be legal for companies to kill their own employees for profit?

If your answer is no, I cordially invite you to take over my world, known as "The City," if travel between worlds on demand becomes possible. I guarantee you that whatever regime you would install would be better than the current government.

I don't have any official authority to give you permission to take over, but also I'm the only one here from my world so no one else can complain about it either.

Hello! Some of you might remember me, but in case you don't - my name is Ren Jinguji. I returned during New Years and I'm resuming my work as an idol!

[With rewnewed energy, as one might notice from his annoyingly sparkling smile.]

But that's not why I'm making this post, really. I want to propose a game! Something so we can get to know each other better.

This is, two truths, one lie. Write three things about yourself, one of which is a lie. Others will have to guess which one it is. Of course, you can also reply as a video or a voice message, if that's easier.

Simple, right? Let's have fun.

So, uhm...

[Deep breath.]

Being stuck without any magic when you've relied on magic for... almost twenty years kind of sucks, actually. [Anyone who was there would no doubt be able to guess he's referring to the mines, where all magic had been nullified almost immediately on entry.

The small, orange-haired Miqo'te panicking about it might have been missed, but he most assuredly did panic.
]

Could someone spare some time to teach me how to fight without it? I know how to handle a sword... kind of, but it's part of one of the magic styles I know, so I'm not sure how much use that will be...

[E'kayan is not usually embarrassed about things, but he does look a little embarrassed to be asking about this.]

I don't want to be caught out like that again.

[After learning about the future of her homeworld (not everything, but enough to know that there will be war between Paradis Island and Marley), Frieda had initially comforted herself with the thought that her (and Eren's) continued absence would at least erase the worst of all dangers - if they were allowed to remain here in Ellipsa. If not... well, she's been trying not to think about that.

Over the last couple of months, however, a few potential avenues have opened up to maybe accomplish what she hardly dared to hope for: To free their world of the titans without sacrificing her people in the process. Having spoken to the (most likely) only person who might be able to directly help, and having explored several of the dimensions more recently opened for investigation, she needs to speak to the other Eldians in Nightwake, no longer wanting to decide everyone's fate over their heads.

After getting a crash course in how to set up a conference call, invitation messages arrive in the inbox of Eren Jaeger, Erwin Smith, Falco Grice, Jean Kirstein, Levi Ackerman, and Reiner Braun - all the Eldians in Ellipsa Frieda is aware of. They all can see who the other attendees will be, and the brief text asks them to forward the invitation to any other Eldians who may be present in this world - unbeknownst to Frieda, that's Bertholdt Hoover, Marco Bott, Mikasa Ackerman and Sasha Braus.

Whether they accept or decline the invitation, before long, the day and time of the conference call arrives... a pop-up notice informs the attendants that the meeting will be recorded!]

[There's a bit of jostling as the video feed comes into view, and there's the voice of a girl talking as it points at the sky - obviously somewhere near the city. Finally, Eggman seems to respond:]

Honestly, I'd prefer getting a look around myself before engaging with the others, but if you insist, Sage...

[Finally, the camera shifts down to Eggman - and most notably his fantastic mustache. He seems to shuffle in a seat clearly visible behind him, and those who know Eggman would probably be able to guess he's in the Egg Mobile.]

Er-hem-em--

[He clears his throat.]

Citizens of Ellipsa! I am Dr. Eggman, future conqueror of the world! ... Er, universe! ... Well, when we get out of here, I suppose. [There's a small pause, before he clears his throat again.] Anyway! I'm looking for a proper place to build a base of operations - these apartments are too small to hold all the tools necessary for a proper genius to do his work! [There's another whisper offscreen.] And, well, my daughter wants to introduce herself as well. Go on, Sage.

[He would shift the camera over to Sage (in her top-level) so she could do hers.]

[OOC: This is a joint IC introduction for both Eggman and Sage. Sage will be making a top-level and anyone who wishes to meet her can do so in her top-level. They may interject into each other's threads if the need arises.]

Hello everybody. Hijikata here. No worries, I've got no bad news about portals to hell this time. Rather than that, a while ago, Rinku-chan and I talked about some information that was found in the magical library...

[He reads out:]

"There exists a world above the clouds that's full of different races who talk our language. They're animal tribes, who act like humans but look like animals. The Winged Mounts come from said place, but only those who receive a blessing from an ancient tree (currently lost to Darkness) can reach the clouds."

With a lot of land now uncovered, we want to go looking for that tree. There's a lot of potential ground to cover, and there's no telling if the tree isn't still lost in the Darkness, but we want to try! We'll start with the big tree that has a house in it in the Summer Segment since that's the most prominent one we know of that emerged after the flight of the dragons.

Why am I telling you all this? Well, we're looking for people to go with us. If the tree with the house is the one, we'll have it easy - but if it isn't, we'll systematically explore all the newly accessible forests. You heard that right! Progress will have to be incremental since we've all got other things to do... but yeah, we're assembling a team! We're looking for a handful of people.

[UPDATE: The expedition thread is now live here, and sign-ups are closed! I (Hijikata-mun) will facilitate it but reach out to all participants for feedback on their character's actions at each turn.]

[Aymeric has had some time to settle in and find his bearings, so now was a good time to address the network. He's in his apartment - the starter ones - sitting behind a table.]

Good afternoon, everyone. I wish to introduce myself properly, as I am a fairly new arrival. I have some inquiries, if you would be so kind as to humor me.

[He speaks in a very calm tone, obviously used to addressing masses - even if not really this way. Which is why the video angle might be a little awkward.]

My name is Aymeric de Borel. I would tell you of my titles, but those aren't relevant in this place. I'm just like you, a person brought into this world. I was given the powers of spring upon my arrival.

[He smiles, changing the topic to what he wanted to ask.]

I wish to hear your opinions of this world. In this case, I mean your personal opinions, rather than the factual state of the world. Those I have gathered myself and continue to do so. It's the personal records that interest me.

[You learn a lot more of a world when you ask about the biased opinions, after all.

Then he pulls the phone charm he was given, displaying it on the screen. It's a blue gladiolus.]


My other inquiry is... what do you make of the flowers we have been given? Do you think they hold a significance to our characters? Flower language is still a very new concept to me, but it has been interesting to learn about.

[One final, very polite yet warm smile.]

Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you.

The feed began a little shaky as the person holding the device adjusts. Once it focused, Night Sky muttered from behind the camera, "'Kay, it's recording."

Who was she speaking to? Why, Aymeric de Borel, bedecked in a punny apron as he stood in his kitchen. (Though those who know him will notice that his hair is a few inches longer than usual pretend the screencap reflects this.) Night Sky's confirmation cued him to smile and wave at the camera.

"Well met, everyone. This is Aymeric with a presentation on one of my personal favourite hobbies: cooking. It is a craft that I believe we can all say we enjoy for more than just basic sustenance."

As Aymeric continued, the camera steadily zoomed in on his handsome face.

"I will be showing everyone my recipe for a dish called popotoes au gratin - at least, it is called that in the world from which I hail. 'Twould seem that the root vegetables that we call popotoes are called potatoes in most other realms. They seem to be one in the same. I will be referring to them as popotoes here." He shrugged a bit. "But I digress. Without further adieu, let's get started, shall we?"

With the camera as zoomed in as it is, the video got a great shot of Aymeric's ever-so-charming smile.

Let's say that you have an issue. Something you can't do, because of bad experiences - trauma even - in the past. The circumstances aren't the same here, but you've got a lot of baggage.

You don't have to do the thing. You can avoid it, easy. It's a little weird, you're a little weird, but no one's going to pressure you into it or anything. But the fact that you can't do it just because of your dumb brain kind of pisses you off? It's the easiest thing in the world, you know nothing awful will happen if you do it, but it still scares you for stupid reasons! You feel stupid about it!

How much is it worth trying to do the thing that scares you and try to get over your issues when you could probably just avoid doing it forever?


[Yes, this post is about kissing other humans. She realizes it's obvious to anyone who knows her, but saying it makes her feel ridiculous, so vagueness it is.]

Hello, everyone~! ⭐

I'm Starlight ✨, here with a public forum post to end the new year with! It's called a confession booth!

Basically, this is your chance to confess something you have been holding back to start the new year off with a clean(er) record!

Oh, and every comment will be automatically anon when posted, so no need to play with settings or anything.

And of course, have a wonderful new years, everyone 💫 I hope to see you more come next year.


Oooh and one more thing. Please don't make any lewd comments on here, okay? If you need to get flirty with your anon buddies, you can make your own post. Much love~ 💕





OOC: This is a mini-minun fun event to end the new years with! Starlight herself won't make any comments or reply to anything. This comment is a free for all, threadjacking is probably a given, please mark if you'd rather avoid getting threadjacked!

Please also keep everything SFW, as this post won't be locked. You can make a secondary post of anon flirting and sexting if that's something you wanna do! A NSFW version has been posted.

Of course any potential triggering confessions should be warned about in the header.

Anon isn't OOCly on, but ICly it's always on. You'd have to hack the settings to be posting with your username.

[ Louis appears on the screen. He's wearing a sweater in a lot of seasonal colors. ]

Before I get started, I'll get it out of the way:

Yes. I'm a deer. No, it's not magic or anything related to here. It's just who I am. Ten fingers, five toes.

[ And he'll leave that there - ]

Anyway -

I'm asking about your winter holidays. Mine is really just around the corner - it's Rexmas. It celebrates the survival of a dinosaur to evolved into a bird in order to survive when the meteor fell. It's the birthday of the dinosaur. It's mostly just a family holiday that you enjoy with family and friends.

I used to get outrageous gifts from my dad when I was small.

[ It's said pretty fondly. ]

And next month is the Odd Soul Festival, but that's in the odd months of the year. So it happens often. It's how as herbivores we celebrate not getting eaten.

[ He pauses. ]

And when I ask for continued protection.

I know they're pretty different from what other people celebrate, though. That's why I'm curious.

Hey, everyone. Armin here. It's nice to meet you if we haven't yet.

I've heard some talk of calendars being created before the new year. Lately I've been trying to practice my photography, so I figured I might offer my services in case anyone is interested. I'm still very new to it. We didn't have cameras where I grew up, so I figure this could be a great way to practice.

Let me know if you're interested.

Thanks.

(It's night and Padmé is on the beach, walking, barefoot, through the surf. Her dress is more like a robe, brushing against the sand with each step and her abundant hair is down, curling gently. She pauses, her toes dipping into the water just...barely.)

I can't sleep. Every time I close my eyes, I think of him; I think of all the ways I can fix what's been done. Having my hands tied here, even with the special powers, feels like a test.

I'm not as patient as I thought I was.

If you know something awful awaits you in your world, how do you cope with that knowledge here?

[ There's a zoom in of orange-red before it moves back to resolve itself into a long-haired man with an eyepatch on his right eye, an unlit cigarette perched on his lips. He sounds slightly agitated when he speaks. ]

Let me get this straight. I got straight up magicked or whatever here to play hero? Didn't ask for this but here we are. If it wasn't for th' fact that I was kinda in mortal-fucking-danger a few minutes before and suddenly not, I'm gonna guess this ain't a hallucination. Feels solid enough.

Anyone want to give me pointers?

[ He seems to be taking this well... Is it suppressed? Is it because he's been through a lot before this? Who can say?

There's a deep sigh. ]


So yeah, before we get to the good shit and someone gives me the cliff-notes...Anyone got a lighter?

I think we all need something fun right now. Especially those who need to take their minds off the cold inside of them while waiting for a cure.

So it's time for...

HOT OR NOT.

You know the rules. Post a pic and then get opinion and go around giving opinions to others. Usually the scale is 1 - 10, with ten being the highest praise.

[The camera flicked on, with a bearded man in a lab coat adjusting the lens, squinting at it, before nodding in confirmation, glancing back at a man out of view of the camera. Some people may recognize the visible man as the Professor who had been sticking around the Pokémon vending machine, giving advice to others upon receiving their Pokémon.]

I believe the camera is working properly-- shall we begin?

It is- and angled properly now as well, so we shall indeed begin.

[Just once last extra-check to ensure the phone was well propped, and wouldn't slip if any of the pokémon out of view decided to investigate/get nosy while this was being done. An older man finally came into view, smoothing down a jacket and adjusting round glasses- some would likely easily recognize Clavell as the other person that had been sticking around the vending machine dispensing pokémon, motioning to Turo that he could take whatever place he desired for this.

Turo moved to stand next to Clavell, also adjusting his lab coat collar, he paused--]


...Clavell, I believe it is already broadcasting.

[Whoopsie.

Clavell squinted towards the broadcasting phone, another idle adjustment to how his glasses were position on his face.]


—Ah, so it is. Well, good a time as any to get started on the announcement then, no?

Indeed.

[Though the taller man did seem slightly ill at ease, he cleared his throat--]

Welcome to the World of Pokemon! )

(OOC: The pokédex app does have all known pokémon in it- except for the ancient paradox pokémon, as these two are from Violet rather than Scarlet. Those tagging in may, of course, get replies from both Clavell and Turo. Speaking of- regular font is Clavell, and the purple font is Turo.)

[It's a race, how could they not be reckless.]

Just let me know if you want to take on a challenge.
