Heya! I've given this a heck of a lot of thought, but I think I'll have to drop Azure here. :( I was actually prolonging this drop for too long, and I'm already behind with Skyler and Stella's tags, so my dropping the entire game may be imminent, but I haven't lost my enthusiasm for STE! If I can catch up really quickly, I should have the majority of December to get back into the game. This is pretty much my last chance for putzing around this badly though.

Azure will be going back to her idyllic life in the rich suburbs and her volunteer work with the aquarium. :) Good job, Azure, you escaped!

Plotto times!

I'm just prefacing this with: Zelos is an asshole.

Moving on! On Sunday, Dec 1st Zelos is going to be announcing a few things at a party being held for Starlit Stage members, sponsors and the media. Which I think rules out most PCs being there, but I don't know if you really want your character to be there hit me up. His announcement is going to be as follows:

1) Starlit Stage and Starling-Chandler School are throwing a charity benefit to help those displaced by the recent bombing of the Dead District. It'll be in the form of a public show where ticket prices will be whatever audience members care to share for those in need. The show itself is going to run Dec 14th-26th.
2) The sponsor for this benefit is Thundercorp who will kindly be lending the PR offices in their HQ
3) This benefit will be Zelos's last show meaning it is going to be a Big Deal around town. He is stepping down from the stage to take over his father's massive global hotel business.
4) As the new head of said business he is looking forward to a close working relationship with Thundercorp from now on and he believes they can make a difference in Locke City so he's asking the public to lend Thundercorp their support.

: All of this will hit the internet the night of December 1st and be covered by major news outlets over the course of December 2nd. Zelos himself is probably not going to throw up a post on the network about it unless people sound like they want his head on a stick or something.

This leads me to like three different plots here that it would be awesome for people to get in on and I'd love to hear suggestions/improvements/volunteers/idk stuff.

Clarification regarding the sewer expedition

[healspec]

Okay so the original plan was that the exploration team would actually make it into the Tuning Towers basements but would still have to send Danny underground to find the source of the buzzing.

It wasn't decided if they would find anything down in the basements besides 'not the source of the buzzing' and the thread for it in the event post hasn't actually happened yet. I'm bringing this up because thewinningside wanted to have Zelos lead a mission down into the basements to see what they could find, which doesn't make sense if they've already been there and done that.

So the question I have for everyone involved in this. Would you rather:

A) Retcon the exploration event so that they do not actually enter the basements? This can be explained by them opting not to go in due to the possibility of danger they are unprepared for. Danny would still be sent underground to discover the giant pink rock, but from the sewers instead of from the basements.

or B) Continue with the original plan and focus our attention on the thread in question so we can figure out what they find down there?

Pros of A, we get to have a different person running another plot that different people can be involved in. Cons of A, we have to retcon something people may have already made assumptions about.

Pros of B, no retconning, and anybody who had plans does not need to change them. Cons of B, it's already two weeks past that mission so there would be backlogging of plot stuff involved.

I do not have feelings on this either way so I am leaving it up to popular vote.
