Plot post for July 30!

This format of plot post is designed for players to ask questions and find ways to influence the plot. Be bold and ask what you can or can't do; the worst that can happen is that I will say no. As plots in Save the Earth are not self resolving nor on a time limit they can evolve in many ways. Although some potential outcomes are given, they are little more than suggestion and can be changed by character action. What role you take is up to you.

The post is also open for players to plot and coordinate between one another.




Events occurring currently;
• The Vermini swarms have disappeared for the most part, and there's no sign of Vermedi either. Some characters may glimpse hairy figures in dark alleys or in sewers, but the creatures always disappear as soon as they are spotted.

• There are an unusual amount of police patrols out and about in the city. Any suspicious activity will be noticed, though there are no immediate IC consequences.

• We also have two super secret event opportunities that have not been claimed. Two commenters to the thread below will be randomly selected for this plot.




Events occurring in the immediate future;
Beginning Friday, August 2, there will be something in the water. Drinking any tap water will result in occasional, uncontrollable fits of laughter, along with re-experiencing previous Echoes, especially memory Echoes. One Echo per 8oz glass of water, and the beginning of its effects can be delayed for up to an hour. Within six hours it'll be out of the character's system completely.




Events potentially occurring;
• If PCs wish to investigate Thunder Corp this week, comment to the thread below with a general idea of how you plan to get in and what you plan to do once you're there. Details will be forthcoming on a case-by-case basis.





Potential Echo Opportunities:
• Drinking the tainted water will grant one new Echo (and only one, no matter how much water is drunk) in addition to any re-experienced ones. Uncovering any secret information about Thunder Corp will also grant an Echo. Canon parallels are a constant.

Aria meanwhile dresses in jean shorts and tank tops this time of year. Does Hikari hang out in Japantown at all? :o

Aria is FAIRLY DECENT at laughing off insults, idk how well it would work against Hikari but we can SEE. She's yet to get really offended by anyone.
thorny: (彡 can you be sure we haven't met)

[personal profile] thorny 2013-08-01 04:36 pm (UTC)(link)
She does! Quite a lot actually, since it's the closest to being at home that she's got here n-not that she's homesick or anything baka

IF ANYONE CAN DO IT IT'S HIKARI she's at eleven network ragequits as we speak

Well Aria lives there because ~Japanese-American citizen~, SO THEY CAN HAVE A RUN IN THERE?? so tsun Hikari.

I SAW THAT, hahaha. Does she have a scoreboard?
thorny: (彡 not a moment for the curious girl)

[personal profile] thorny 2013-08-01 04:39 pm (UTC)(link)
HELL YEAH THEY CAN although oops Hikari doesn't think that people like that are ~real Japanese~ so that'll be fun.

she doesn't, but I do. Hikari just soaks up all of the anger with the self-satisfied knowledge that she'll get everyone eventually.

ARIA SHRUGS, you can't please everyone. Would you like to do a log sometime then? If we pick a day and who starts (I am happy to start if need be/that is preferred!) we can have it set as a plan!

aslktjslekjtr that made me laugh far too much

Sounds good to me! I am admittedly ass at starting up logs so if you could do that I would really appreciate it, haha.

IT'S LIKE SHOOTING FISH IN A BARREL

[personal profile] eras 2013-08-01 04:45 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm absolutely happy to do so!! Do you mind if I start it up tomorrow/later tonight sometime? :o
thorny: (彡 the picture's gotta fit)

[personal profile] thorny 2013-08-01 04:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's fine with me. I'm pretty much open for whenever so just go with what's most convenient for you. :|b

OKAY, do you have a prose/bracket pref for this? ALSO, would you prefer backdated to yesterday or today pre-giggle shenanigans or during giggle water shenanigans?
thorny: (彡 companionship is where you find it)

[personal profile] thorny 2013-08-02 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Uhhh I'm ok with either although admittedly faster with brackets. And whatever you like date-wise! Hikari's not going to be affected so it's really up to what you feel like since she's not changing.

Okay and LAST QUESTION: Meeting on the street, or does Hikari have any desire to enter antique shops?
thorny: (彡 hold my head up everywhere)

[personal profile] thorny 2013-08-02 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Unfortunately she doesn't really antique beyond to make fun of the owners and all the items inside it. She's a gem.
