Jikan Test Drive Meme
MinimizeYou've seen this before. The thought strikes suddenly, during whatever it is you were doing. Having an important conversation? Running away from home? Dying in the midst of a fierce battle? Where ever you are, one things is true: you're certain this isn't the first time you've lived through this. But upon realizing this, that's when it happens. Like someone hitting rewind on the VCR, you're back where you were ten minutes ago. And it happens again. And again. And again--

Until finally, something is different. A door stands in front of you. Will you go through it? Nothing else seems to be working, so this might be your only chance.



Upon opening the door and heading inside, a strange feeling overwhelms you. It's comforting and warm, like being enveloped in a soft, heavy blanket. You hear a voice murmuring in your ear, but it's unintelligible.

And in the next moment, you've appeared in front of a mysterious stone shrine in the middle of a forest, surrounded by the unfamiliar yet worried faces of fox-like humans in red and white robes, speaking in a foreign language that doesn't sound so foreign to you anymore.

Maryouku University

There isn't much time to process what's happening before characters are transported to the nearby Maryouku University. All injuries are completely healed, and those under mental duress will have a powerful soothing spell cast on them to calm them down. Their every need is met: food is offered, and questions are answered. "You've arrived in the Western Kingdom of Nippon, on a planet called Gaia," they explain. "When you became aware of the timeloop, we... well, let us explain."

Orientation Maryouku University, Kyoto
Everyone is brought to a large auditorium, where dozens of other people looking similarly out of place are seated around them. The Kitsune Yokai from before filter on stage, as well as a number of humans and other Yokai in labcoats. And after a brief introduction, they begin to explain. What they experienced back home was a timeloop. While the loops in their home worlds are smaller and likely to resolve on their own, the fact that such a small amount of time is being repeated is what makes them so dangerous for those who become aware of it. And they've been working around the clock, checking adjacent universes for others who've become aware. While the technical explanations may go over the heads of most, that's not the reason they were all brought together like this.


"In order to bring you here, we used the very same magic responsible for freeing our world... Kizuna."


And they continue to explain: their own world was trapped in a year long loop for decades, if not longer. Through the use of an ancient form of bonding magic, they bound their world to the present flow of time, allowing it to progress past the timeloop. Or at least, that's how they thought it worked. In truth, Kizuna is very powerful reality-warping magic. And thanks to the powerful bond all refugees now share with the country of Nippon, the magic surrounding them will only continue to evolve.

Until a means of resuming the flow of time back in their home world is found, they'll just have to make due with this one. But not to worry, because Nippon is fully committed to taking care of the refugees!

A Brand New Home Kyoto, Kansai
Once orientation is over, characters will be allowed to choose housing in both Kyoto and Tokyo, enabling them the means of easily living between both cities if they please. These housing options will be fully paid for by the government of Nippon, with the NRL and MRU providing a stipend for food expenses in Tokyo and Kyoto respectively.

In lieu of providing transportation, all refugees will be granted an unlimited rail pass that they can use to travel all across Nippon! As of the beginning of May, express routes connecting Tokyo and Kyoto will be running at all times of day, allowing refugees to freely travel between the Eastern and Western Kingdoms.

Over in Higashiyama, the Love Festival is in full swing at Jishu Shrine. In addition to typical festival foods and fare, visitors may be inclined to try the koiuranai-no-nishi, a pair of stones ten meters apart bearing a legend that says anyone who can cross from one stone to the next with their eyes closed will have all their relationship dreams come true. Unfortunately, some troublemaker has decided to curse one of the stones, causing anyone who attempts the challenge to temporarily fall madly in love with the first person they see when they open their eyes, whether they know them or not!

Over in Gion, a certain movie producer is seeking refugees for minor roles in a dramatic retelling of the mass-kidnapping that took place last year in June. Probably not the nicest way for new refugees to learn about such a traumatic event, but hey-- this guy pays well! Those auditioning will be placed in pairs where they'll need to recite a love confession between two refugees, as one lay dying in the other's arms... which never actually happened. For all the injuries, no refugees actually died back then. But those who can prove themselves with their acting skills might just find themselves invited to be part of the main cast, or even land future roles and enter the realm of showbusiness!

In Uji, preparations are underway for a special ceremony to be conducted later this month, put on by the Emperor himself! Of course, typically "ceremony" is just another way of saying "lavish party" where the Western Emperor is concerned. Regardless, volunteers are needed to help spruce up an old villa for the party itself, where it seems a colony of nyagumo have taken up residence. Thankfully, most appear to be the domesticated variety and can simply be carried outside, but those in charge of the top floor better look out for the wild one, since it's nearly five times the size and venomous.


NRL Time Refugee Support Network
Once they've received their housing assignment, all refugees will be given small handheld devices called magi-tech comms, or magi-comms for short. They're heavier than a conventional smartphone would be, but far sturdier, and powered by the ambient magic that flows through the city. They don't need to be charged, but they won't work outside of cities at all. Upon booting it up, they'll find a message linking them to a special channel for refugees.

Springtime Lovers

As flowers bloom in the countryside, over in the Western Kingdom, it's time once again for the month of love. Traditionally, it's the month where marriage proposals are made, weddings take place, and couples decide to settle down and start a family.

And in celebration of this beautiful season, numerous festivals and events can be found taking place all over Kyoto. In particular, the Ukiyo district, known for it's patronage to the arts, seems to be intent on drawing in refugees this month.

Archive of our Own Ukiyo, Kyoto
Art has always been known to flourish when times are peaceful, and Nippon is no exception. But one such art is finally gaining a foothold in the west: doujinshi, fanworks based on existing properties and media. And to that end, a special doujinshi festival is taking place at the beginning of the month.

But this is no ordinary doujinshi. This is refugee doujin, which stars well-known refugees and their friends. With thousands of refugees scattered across Nippon, telling tales of worlds far beyond anything the people of Nippon have ever heard of, it's no wonder they've become an object of interest in the eyes of the native people. And while most of the doujin changes names and places around, some are a bit more blatant, borrowing names and appearances wholesale.

But what kind of stories will they find? Perhaps the dramatic exploits of the refugees who were swept away to the land of Bakeneko this past March? Or maybe a steamy romance between a wandering samurai and the son of a powerful shogun? Or maybe the ever present tragedy of being forever separated when one side is forced to leave Nippon? Or, for true connoisseurs, they may even find the booth selling a magical book that automatically illustrates the reader in a random genre of manga, be it romance, fantasy, or pornography.

Honestly a good case could be made that all of this is more than a little invasive and could pass as sexual harassment. There's even some cosplayers! But it's all in good fun, and also thoroughly protected by Nippon's freedom of artistic expression laws. And for those who have just arrived, they'll be able to learn the "true" history of the refugees lives in Nippon so far!

Just be sure to keep an open mind when wandering through the 18+ section.

Fortunate Feelings Ukiyo, Kyoto
Although typically not the most popular tourist destination, as the oldest temple in Kyoto, Koryuu-ji is holding a special exhibition of rare ancient artifacts said to posses fortune telling abilities. Perhaps in a world of magic, this may not seem like a big deal. But this one is rather special -- because in nearly a thousand years, it's never been wrong.

The artifact is actually comprised of a set of small statues: two bodhisattva posed in deep thought, their faces expressionless. But upon being asked a question, a positive answer will cause one statue to smile, and a negative answer will cause the other to cry.

Naturally, there's a limit to what people are allowed to ask, as a power like that could potentially be used to sow chaos. But given the season, most people visiting are doing so for matchmaking purposes: should a pair approach the statues, the response they give will reveal whether or not the pair is compatible. Of course, whether or not this is romantic, familial, or platonic compatibility is rather open to interpretation.

And as a special deal for refugees, they'll each be allowed to ask one question, in addition to having their compatibility with whoever they came with assessed. This could be a friend they've brought along, or a fellow stranger waiting in line who may just be a fated to be with them someday!

But please don't blame the statue for the inevitable messy breakup that it predicts.

Flower Power Ukiyo, Kyoto
With spring in full swing, flowers are blooming all across Nippon. But for those who were present last year, they may see a rather distinct flower they don't recognize. It can be found blooming just about everywhere in Kyoto, with natives occasionally commenting that they've never seen anything like it. And perhaps the most curious thing about them is they only seem to bloom when someone is nearby, the bulbs otherwise snapping shut when they step away.

But for the refugees, they'll notice an additional effect: when giving the flowers a sniff, the petals will gently close over their nose as if giving them a soft kiss. And they smell delightful -- how charming! Surely there's nothing suspicious or dangerous about such cute little flowers, right?

Of course there is, you know where you are.

Upon inhaling the pollen of these pretty little flowers, the Refugees will feel a little light-headed -- but also warm and happy. It creates within them a desire to share that warmth and happiness with others through physical affection. They may find themselves leaning on a stranger's shoulders, gently holding the hand of an acquaintance, or peppering the cheeks of a dear friend with soft kisses. This effect grows stronger the more pollen one inhales, and with just how windy it can get in the city, there's no need to get quite so close to inhale the pollen.

But what it is? Plant, ayakashi, some strange mutation of both? The locals genuinely don't seem to know, and soon, Exorcist clans from across the West begin pouring into the city to better study these strange new flowers. But overall, the general consensus appears to be that they're rather harmless.

Still, just make sure the flower that you sniff isn't actually a Sakebana in disguise. They're known for being a little on the loud side.



OOC Notes
Welcome to Jikan's May TDM! The TDM is considered game canon, and also serves as the intro log! That said, whether you choose to carry threads over to the game or not is up to you!

• Current players are more than welcome to top-level, or take prompts from the TDM and use for their own logs! This may change in the future depending on how busy TDMs become.

• CRAU characters may start regaining their CRAU memories one month after the TDM. However, vague feelings of familiarity are allowed between previous game CR! For more on this, please read the FAQ!

• You do not need to sign-up for housing! Choose whichever style you prefer, in both Kyoto and Tokyo. Roommates can be chosen by the characters or can be random. If you want to switch housing later, your character has the option of moving at the beginning of each month.

• Incoming characters are welcome to find doujinshi about castmates not currently in the setting, with the implication that they may have been in the setting before. Make sure you have permission before finding doujinshi of characters currently in the game.

• The statue's predictions are 100% accurate, but open to interpretation because of how limited the answers are. For instance, the statues are capable of both crying and smiling at the same time for complex situations. That said, please do not intentionally write the statues being wrong.

• The severity of the flower's effects is entirely up to you!


Please leave any questions about the TDM prompts in the thread below! General game questions can be directed to the FAQ!

Apps are always open!

[personal profile] chaoticstupid 2022-04-30 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[ooc: Due to his canon point, Rin currently has blue-white hair! This will be changed shortly after he gets in!]


1 | Spidercat, Spidercat, Bites Wherever A Spider Can
What the hell is wrong with this place!?

[Ah. It seems someone found the wild one, as a teenage boy with white hair wearing a black trench coat can be seen running down the stairs from the top floor -- a nyagumo the size of a large dog scurrying behind him, hissing and spitting. It seems someone forgot he doesn't have his sword at the moment. And he's not going to hurt it?? So he can't use his flames!]

[Help?? Or maybe just lead the way, so he can lead the damn thing outside. He seems to otherwise be handling it pretty well.]



2 | Shoujo Jump
Oh man... it's so beautiful...

[Here stands Rin, having spent what little money he earned on some doujinshi that appears to be of the tragic romance genre... a-and he's crying. Who's on the cover?? Maybe it's you (current players only)?? Either way, he's clearly very invested in the story.]

[Alternatively, find him ambling around the 18+ section, not going in, but glancing around nervously like a man who just committed a crime. He's not 18, but they don't seem to be checking IDs... maybe he can sneak a peek?]



3 | Fortunate Fellas
Wait, so this is like... some kinda love test thing?

[Did Rin get in line without knowing why he's lining up? Yes, yes he did. Thankfully, someone in front quickly explains, and his expression goes from awe to something more serious and grounded. Whereupon he turns to whoever else happens to be in line nearby who doesn't seem to have a partner.]

Hey, I don't have anyone else to go in this thing with, so uh... you okay going in with me? I have a question I wanna ask those statues.


4 | Cuddle Bug
[You'd think maybe his demon blood would make him a little less susceptible to the flowers affects, but you would be wrong. If anything, it makes those affects stronger -- and suddenly, all Rin wants to do is sit down next to the first person he sees, throw an arm over their shoulder, and pull them in for a hug.]

[Which is exactly what he's going to do, a white tail curling out from under his coat and wagging happily. If that person is a girl, his face will be bright red -- if that person is a guy, there's a nice and strong shoulder pat added into the mix. Very strong, actually. Why does it hurt a little??]


H-Hi! Do you wanna, I dunno... go get some taiyaki together or something? They gotta be sellin' it somewhere, right? I mean, this place has gotta something normal to snack on, right?


5 |Wildcard
[Hit me up at [plurk.com profile] randomsnarfle to plot a thing! I'm open to things getting hot and heavy, though keep in mind Rin is 16!

[ The last thing she'd been expecting today was someone sitting next to her, who also put their arm over her shoulder with sudden close contact involved. She'd decided to wear a soft indigo yukata as she'd been walking around and it wasn't really a time where formality was needed.

It was this young man's question that got her attention after that, and rather easily. ]


Taiyaki? I'm not quite sure I know of what that is, but there are several places to choose from if you would like something to eat.

[ She paused to consider things for a moment. ]

I do not mind joining you for that.

I can be your angle, or yuor devil
[What a lovely day. Sun is shining, birds are singing, love is in the air...nothing can go wrong! Surely! Koro walks about, observing all the couples walking around, feeling his own metaphorical heart fluttering. Oh what a delight it is to see such joy radiating in the air. Eventually Koro stops for a small break, noticing a lovely bunch of flowers blooming on the side of a path.

Koro may not have a sense of taste, but he's glad his sense of smell is still strong. Koro ponders to himself, wondering if these flowers could make a nice scented oil...and so he leans in to take in the scent...only to inhale the pollen instead. Goodness were these flowers full of pollen!

The scent is nice, but it doesn't stop Koro from jumping back and coughing, not realizing there was someone behind him, and so he bumps into them.]


Ugh...sorry! Didn't know you were there. I...think I inhaled something. I feel...strange.

I can be your wild, or yuor card
[ooc: Honestly just here for the love pollen prompt LMAO can't think of anything else, but if you have something else you want to do with Koro, hit me up!

As for the prompt, Koro can keep it to just fluffy affections or can get spicy if you so desire. He is an incubus after all, and who knows what kind of effect love pollen can have on a sex fiend?]
accursedwings: (☽〖 look but don't falter 〗)

[personal profile] accursedwings 2022-04-30 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[ There was a small pause as the exact thing Koro had bumped into was a pair of wings as he'd been facing away with his attention on something else prior to that moment. He blinked a couple of times, turning around to look at the man with green eyes widening a slight touch.

No doubt about it. This man was easily about a foot taller than he was, so that sure as hell was something. ]


Strange? How so? You may need to be more specific.

[ Yukie raised an eyebrow curiously, keeping his wings as close to him as possible, folded forwards a little as well. ]

thoma | genshin impact

[personal profile] redshields 2022-04-30 08:19 pm (UTC)(link)
a brand new home

[ not going to write specific starts for either of these, but for a cute prompt, feel free to find thoma playing with a bunch of the domestic nyagumo he's carried out of the villa, kind of acting as a distraction to keep them from going back inside.

also very open to him being the person spotted once someone else opens their eyes after walking between the stones in higashiyama! ]



archive of our own

[ coming from a festival centered around light novels, the doujinshi leaves thoma a bit wary of who might have organized such a similar event. but the longer he wanders without seeing a hint of pink fox ears around, the more he relaxes and actually begins to look at the offerings some of the booths have.

he's curious about some of it, but it's when he spots one with a striking resemblance to kazuha that he finally picks something up. a flip of pages takes him from smiling to his ears growing red as he closes the book and places it back into the stack, moving on from the stand and deciding to avoid any other doujin that might have familiar figures on them.

it isn't until he finds one with a blank cover that he picks up another book, curiously flipping into it and staring down at himself. another flip reveals it to be a romantic plot that has him skimming for the love interest in question. ]



fortunate feelings

[ thoma doesn't have an immediate question in mind as he approaches the statues, assuming he can at least ask if anyone he cares about is in nippon. he assumes some are still here, but given his own departure, it seems worthwhile enough to ask.

before he asks anything, though, one statue is already smiling and he finds himself glancing at the person he'd been closest to in line, eyebrows arching. ]


Did you already ask something?


flower power

[ he does, in fact, make the mistake of smelling one of the flowers that seems to open up when he walks by. when thoma comes away from the flower's little kiss, he doesn't realize he's smiling, no immediate concern about what could come from a flower acting that way.

should he come across a stranger or acquaintance after, he'll end up with a hand on their shoulder, touching their arm, or maybe even trying to hold their hand.

and should he come across someone he's closer to, he'll take their hand, hug them, and likely even try to kiss their cheek. a smooch right on the lips is also a possibility if he's breathed in more pollen along the way. or once they're together. ]




( ooc: thoma's info post is here with preferences listed. very open to him being affectionate with anyone, just in case that needs clarification! )

fortunate feelings

[personal profile] acutabove 2022-05-01 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
[ there is, again, that nagging sense of deja vu, a feeling that he's seen this man somewhere before. perhaps it's the way that he holds himself, or the bright blond head of hair that puts him in mind of the Traveler. that's where the similarities end, of course, and when he realizes that he's being addressed he blinks, glancing back at the smiling statue in front of him and breathing out a laugh. ]

I suppose I did. I didn't realize I'd said it out loud.

[ but truth be told, he probably hadn't. he wouldn't have been bothered if the statues somehow had mind-reading powers, especially since he hadn't really taken them all that seriously up until this point.

he looks over at the blond again - and realization lights up his features. he remembers. ]


You're -- the Kamisato Clan housekeeper, right? Thoma? [ how long had it been since they'd met? long before the Traveler had made it to Inazuma, surely. ]

divineavenger: (S O A 1)

Fayt Leingod | Star Ocean 3

[personal profile] divineavenger 2022-04-30 09:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[A timeloop is unfortunately not the weirdest thing Fayt's had to deal with recently, so when he's yanked through the door, he's mostly just relieved he has a physical body... and has a multitude of questions of where he is and was anyone else with him.

Really, can't he catch a break?]


Brand New Home - Uji
[Fayt doesn't really mind helping out here and there... honestly, the mundanity of cleaning is rather welcome to him at this point.

He's rather fascinated by the Nyagumo nesting there, actually: It looks like a cross between a cat and a spider, and seems tame amusingly enough. Were they kept as pets in this world?

At some point he might have no less than five spittens crawling all over him after a silken nest falls on his head. He's laughing as he tries to scoop them all up.]


Haha... hey, come on!

[The upper floor might give him a bit more of a surprise, but... well, that longsword isn't for show in the least.]

Archive of Our Own
[Fayt's a brand new arrival, but the doujinshi festival certainly gives him a pause. It's a bit unsettling when he realizes what it is: Especially when he's recognized as a refugee and waved over to a stall, excited chatter leading to him being prodded to take a peek at some of the newest doujinshi, claims of stories portraying recent history at least grabbing his attention. He's... not even going to comment about some of the more risque ones.

That being said, there's no hiding the way his eyes go wide when he's handed a magical book to try, and the illustrations inside look like him in... some very compromising positions. It looks like the genre is some shoujo-slash porno.]


What the...?!

[His face is. Going so red right now. Never mind his thoughts earlier: This is so far from his experiences in Gemity it belongs in another galaxy.]

Fortunate Feelings
[He's not really here for matchmaking, but the idea of statues that can answer any question is too good for him to pass up, with so many questions about what is happening back in his universe.]

Hey uh... would you mind pairing up with me for this? I've got a question I want to ask, but they aren't letting anyone approach without a partner.

[He seems a bit sheepish. It's probably a tad insensitive to ask someone to get couple's capability ratings just to ask a question, but it's important.]

Flower Power
[Of course Fayt's curious enough to go inspecting the weird flowers.... of course he is. Especially since the flowers only seem to open in response to passerby. Some sort of seismonastic response....? But from so far away....

He gets close enough to get a nice whiff of their scent, which will unfortunately be a mistake in the long run.

He'll probably end up getting touchy with the first person he comes across-- a sudden hug, or a hand reaching out for theirs. He just feels good in a way that is unquestionably nice, and the urge to share it is strong.

He'll probably apologize later, when it wears off. Whoops.]
openheartedly: (Kindly)

Fortunate Feelings

[personal profile] openheartedly 2022-05-01 06:01 am (UTC)(link)
[Fayt isn't the only person who wasn't here for the matchmaking, and Lumine had been lingering in the area for a time trying to decide just what she thought about the 'special deal' for refugees. Honestly it sounded way too good to be true, but she hadn't had any way of testing it out herself. Paimon wasn't around, and most of the people she'd seen approach the area were already with someone else after all.

She turns, surprise evident enough, when someone approaches her first.]
Oh--sure I don't mind...but do you think they'll let us ask more than one question?

[That was the thing really. She wanted to ask something about her brother after all...but then the only answer she ever received tended to be 'no but we'll keep an eye out for him' back in Teyvat. Who could say if anything here knew about him?]

Why Spiders?

[While Minato wasn't really someone who was afraid of spiders, he also didn't ever actually encounter one as big as the one that just bit him. He didn't think he would need any weapons and his Personas were a little too big to summon them in the villa and he had tried to make it outside first. While he eventually did get outside and got one of his smallerish Personas to deal with it, the venom was already making its way in his system.

Which is perhaps why a very concerned dog was barking up a storm at any person he could get their attention. Koromaru was too small to drag Minato to someone who could maybe help but perhaps he could lead them over to him?]


Arf! Arf!

[Should they decide to follow Koromaru, he would lead them to where Minato was currently lying on the grass. He was curled up protectively around his arm, where the bite wound was, and his eyes were shut tight in pain. He had a hard time moving in general, muscles seemed stuff and numb although he seemed to shiver occasionally from the pain.]

AO3

[Minato was pretty familiar with doujin and their concept. While he rarely went out of his way to buy any, it wasn't like he didn't see their appeal. So, he figured it wouldn't hurt to check out what was being created. Fanworks were fanworks, so he took anything he browsed at face value.

That was, until he realized some of these people he recognized. Not from his world, but from passing by them during the festival. Huh, so these fanworks were for fans of the refugees? That's... a little unsettling. And given that he had apparently been here before, he was half expecting to find something of himself in there. But he had not, instead he approached one such refugee that was on the cover of the doujinshi he was holding (don't worry, it's very SFW, if a bit flowery) and poked their shoulder.]


I think this is you.

[ ... It does look like her, but she has to hide how she's feeling. Her fan, blue and gold in colour, is summoned out of thin air, and she masks her mouth with the width of it. This is a little embarrassing, and what's left of her face? Red. ]

I think that is me, yes.

[ She's not embarrassed because it looks like the content could ruin her life or anything (exaggerated), but because it's her! And she never expected something like this! ]

... did you buy this?

ofc!

Chuuya Nakahara | Bungo Stray Dogs

[personal profile] darkdisgrace 2022-04-30 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Repeat, rewind
[It might be a moment deja vu for some: a yelling, uncooperative redhead, a few completely serious threats of violence, and at least one person must recall this face, because they just... throw him back through the door.

He's yanked back a bit later, just a little bit more cooperative than before. Just a little bit. Enough to listen, at least.

Doesn't stop him from fuming as he stomps out from orientation.]


This is fucking bullshit. I've got things to do, I can't be stuck here!

[And yet, here he is.]

Archive of Our Own
[Of all the things Chuuya expected to run across, it was not a doujinshi of him.

Several doujinshi, actually. He stares wide eyed at the very risque covers of what is undoubtedly himself in various states of undress with people he doesn't recognize, but the most insulting one is--]


I am not that short and skinny, what the hell?!

[He looks like a twig!!! A girlish twig!!

Though there's no real use denying he's short: The man is 5'3, and clearly sensitive about it.]


Flower power
[Honestly, Chuuya wasn't one for stopping to smell the flowers usually.... but it didn't quite matter, what with how windy it is today. He finds himself sinking into a comfortable haze without even realizing it, a small smile on his lips. Y'know... things don't seem that bad, now that he thinks on it.

He probably looks drugged, let's be honest.

Then again, the fact that he might just... reach out and pat people's shoulders, or lean against them on the train... yeah someone might want to try and snap him out of it.]


Fuck this
[It's only once it's really settled in that he's stuck here, somehow, in this bizarrely mundane fantasy land that Chuuya seeks out a perfectly normal coping mechanism: namely, a bar.

Listen, it's either pick a fight or pick up a drink, he's probably doing everyone a favor here.

That being said, when he settles at the bar to order something strong, he heaves a frustrated sigh.]


This sucks.

[Yep, that just about sums it up.

....Though in short order, he's probably going to be a fair bit louder and much, much more vocal about his feelings: Chuuya doesn't have great alcohol tolerance, and he's an emotional drunk. Sorry to all bartenders and patrons both.]


[OOC: Chuuya will be a returnee who has had his memories wiped! He will not remember previous CR, but I am open to rebuilding previous CR for sure. Also if I don't re-app him feel free to assume this TDM didn't happen, this is just a test to see if I can pull him back in.]
phoenixblessed: (065)

fuck this ;)

[personal profile] phoenixblessed 2022-05-01 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
[Something strong, he'd said. Insisted, with a look about him that Diluc has seen before. Far be it from him to refuse a drink to someone who's carrying the familiar air of resigned disappointment in being here.

He doesn't give the man just anything strong. What Diluc places in front of Chuuya is an unholy mix of spirits which comes together to create the closest he has able to come to an authentic Death After Noon. Kaeya approves of it so he can only assume it's as accurate as it can be.

The glass is set down gently on the bar in time for him to hear the man's huffed-out words.

Aether | Genshin Impact

[personal profile] brilliantdiamond 2022-05-01 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
1 | Kiss Kiss Fall in Love
[Aether wasn't around for the Love Festival last year, but it seems to be pretty cute. The month of love? He can't help but wonder what that means... this place could be suspicious at times, after all.]

[Still, perhaps it's only because he's been so unlucky in love that he decides to give the koiuranai-no-nishi a shot. He has a pretty good grasp of the distance required, and so he sets off with his eyes closed, aiming to make it to the other stone safely. And he might have gotten away with it too, if someone didn't happen to cross his path before he could stop, causing him to bump right into them. And with that, his eyes flutter open.]


Ah, sorry! I didn't mean to... uh... I mean-- hi!

[Are those little hearts forming in his eyes? Maybe. It seems his luck won't be improving after all.]


2 | Fan Fictional
[Aether hasn't yet experienced the Irodori Festival back in Inazuma, so the idea of a festival dedicated to drawn and written works is a curious one. And at first, he seems to be having a good time looking around... until he stumbles upon someone selling a doujinshi starring himself. And much to horror, it's in the 18+ section.]

[What can he possibly do? He can't just let someone sell this stuff!! But even when faced with the man himself, they refuse to halt sales, forcing him to buy every copy he can find.]

[Where will your character find him? Perhaps they found a copy first, and are thumbing through a preview copy just as Aether walks up and stares in horror? Or maybe they bump into him and cause all those lewd books to come spilling out of his bag?]

[Or perhaps they'll find him in a quieter moment, curiosity having gotten the better of him, as he sits and reads the book underneath the shade of a tree. It's hard to say if he's enjoying it or not.]



3 | Flower Power Hour
[At some point, Aether finds himself curiously sniffing the strange flowers. The way they seem to kiss his nose is enough to draw out a little giggle, as he resists the urge to pluck one and take it with him. Although he finds himself a but worried that they might be ayakashi, seeing as they don't look big enough to grab him and feel him up, he's not terribly worried.]

[As he straightens up, he finds he's not really worried about anything right now. He feels good, and really happy! It puts a little skip in his step as he walks through the streets of Ukiyo, eventually stopping by a shrine with a large and intricate garden behind it. And upon spotting someone he recognizes, he bounds over to their side and quickly hangs on their arm.]


Hey! Enjoying the view? There's a path that leads up the hill if you want to see an even better one!

[Or, if this is a case mistaken identity--]

Hey, are you-- oh! Sorry, I thought you were a friend of mine. Are here to look at the garden, too?

[And yet he's not letting go of their arm.]


4 | Wildcard
[Hit me up at [plurk.com profile] randomsnarfle if you wanna plot something specific! I'm also open for smut in any of the prompts if things go in that direction!]

[personal profile] mistsplitter 2022-05-01 06:06 am (UTC)(link)
[ Ayaka has just been exploring on her own, taking advantage of the fact that she can actually walk around without being recognised. In other words? She feels free in this place. Still a little nervous, though, but free all the same.

Her mood is light and happy as she walks around. At first, it surprises her now that she has a companion, but when she notices it's Aether by her arm?

She can help but let out a soft laugh. ]


I had a feeling we would run into each other.

Sylvando | Dragon Quest XI S

[personal profile] smilingarmor 2022-05-01 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
Gion-An actor's life is the life for me

Sylvando had yet to see one of these 'movies' himself, but had to admit that they did sound fun! And being in them sounded even more so. So when word of the open audition call for refugees had reached his ears, he'd hopped on a train- another first for him- and headed right over.

After arriving and being given further details, including the scene they'd be playing and their motivation, Sylv nodded. It was all a bit darker than he liked, but let it not be said that The Great Sylvando couldn't evoke deeper feelings as well as laughter. He read over his lines while he waited; they'd been told they could improvise a bit if they thought they and their partner could do it well, but they were being judged more on the overall quality of their performance more than their improvisational skill. It seemed a simple enough scene; the challenge would be in bringing out the emotion, and making it all feel genuine. A perfect trial run for untested actors; the director was quite a clever fellow.

Finally, the names of Sylvando and his partner were called. "Here we go; showtime," he said, turning to the one beside him. "Are you ready, honey?"

Doujinshi festival-The cover is not the book

Now wasn't this an interesting thing? Sylvando was no stranger to fans, of course, and occasionally those fans were on the artistic side. He'd posed for a few paintings and sketches for particularly artistic fans who asked nicely in the past; it was always wonderful to see someone expressing their passion for something creatively, after all. But this particular method was new to him.

Which of course meant that he was all the more eager to learn more about it! While he knew enough to take the stories that claimed to be true with a rather large grain of salt, that didn't stop any of it from being entertaining. He perused the various stalls, occasionally stopping to chat with some of the authors or other interested refugees. Who knows; now that he had a bit of extra money from busking, he might just pick up a bit of reading material too.

And the costumes people came up with were just as interesting if not more so. Sylvando could definitely be found exchanging costuming tips with some of the dressed-up attendees, maybe even offering his services if they knew anyone who wanted a costume but lacked the sewing skill to make their own. All in all it was proving to be quite a fun time!

[personal profile] acutabove 2022-05-01 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
i ✧ love at first rock
[ there's a strange feeling of deja vu in everything, one that he can't quite shake off. according to the NRL assistants who'd greeted him when he first arrived he'd been here before, which in itself was unusual because he's fairly certain he'd remember a door opening in the middle of his world leading to... wherever this place was. they didn't divulge much more than that, which was good given the concerned looks they'd given him, and while he probably would have wanted a full report on what exactly he'd been up to when he was last here, he supposed the better option was to see if his memories came back with a bit of wandering around.

he'd be less inclined to believe them if he could shake off the nagging feeling of familiarity that came with being a place he'd already visited before... more than that, the sense of ease and contentment, the joy of returning to a place he'd spent a long time in already. how strange.

so while love festivals aren't really his thing, he finds himself at one (supposedly) regardless. he doesn't quite notice the looks that he's being given, but he credits it to the fact that his attire is probably giving him away and not the notion that they recognize him. if they did, they would say something, right?

still, he doesn't linger for very long, and he's already making his way through the festival grounds in search of... something. he's not sure what, especially with the newness of it all, and he sidesteps a strange-looking rock in his path as he makes his way through, closing his eyes in thought. the best thing would be to return to his homeland immediately, but given that there seemed to be a rather alarming number of people trapped here he doubted that was very likely.

his leg hits something. opening his eyes, Childe glances down at the second stone at his feet, identical to the first he'd passed. there's a person standing in front of him, and he looks up to ask them about it, but - you know what happens next. doki time. ]

ii ✧ ao3
[ after the short-lived, whirlwind romance at the love rocks he's beginning to realize that there's more to this world than it lets on. his meanderings that take him around the city tell him that this place is relatively similar to Inazuma, and it's that reason alone that makes him feel a little more in his element. the opportunity for new experiences just beyond the horizon is never something he'll turn away, the prospect of becoming stronger mentally and physically as good an incentive as any.

however, he's not quite sure how to take it when he does happen to come across yet another festival, this time with an alarming number of memorabilia in his own likeness.

it's not like he hasn't seen it before, but it was never anything quite like this. never to this degree, or in this medium, and he's unsure if he should feel charmed or weirded out that the books seem to be keen on depicting him in various situations that he would absolutely never find himself in otherwise. there's even someone that looks like him, except in regular clothing and with a paper-mache Fatui mask clipped to their artificial, bright hair. they give him wide-eyed stares but otherwise give him a wide berth, and, really, maybe he should be a little upset.

but it's hard to be when he finds himself becoming enchanted by a book that seems to change before his very eyes, the picture filling in with the likness of him and whoever happens to be nearby. he lifts up his head to ask and then he's staring, unblinking, at the likeness of several people he knows quite well in Teyvat... all splayed out provocatively on what look like long pillowcases. he's found the dakimakura section.

the merchant watching him grins suggestively, holding out a hand and turning the pillowcase to give Childe a peek at the other side of the one he's currently looking at. ]

iii ✧ flower power
[ by the end of the week his main takeaway is that this place is strange. which is fine, he could do strange. he'd actually prefer it to the endless droll of ordinary life, and that's saying something. with all the walking he's done it should come as no surprise, therefore, when he starts to feel a little... strange.

at first he thinks it might be the atmosphere. new place, new things to get used to, right? however, as time goes on and he returns to his dingy little refugee apartment more and more, he finds himself stopping by to chat up people on the street. a majority of them don't seem too bothered by the way he claps his hand on their arm or shoulder, and Childe likes to think he feels happier just for the human contact. it's something that starts out small, when little children ask for him to hold their hand as they cross the street, and he'd like to think what he's feeling now is only exacerbated because of that.

but no - despite barely knowing (or remembering) anyone here, he's happy. it feels like it's been a while since he's felt this kind of happiness, but it's also not without its underlying feelings of deja vu and a strange sense that there's more he's missing, here, then just the answers to getting back to Teyvat. ]

wildcard
[ don't see anything you like? feel free to bring your own!! as a note to all previous cr: childe is coming in relatively new, but he'll be getting back his memories slowly over the course of the next few months. ]

[Every so often, Aether finds himself wondering what it would look like when he finally sees Childe again. He's already accepted it likely won't be until he returns to Teyvat -- whenever that is -- and that if it did happen here, he probably wouldn't remember anything. Ayaka didn't, after all. Still, he can't help but fantasize about the scene sometimes when he lets his mind wander. Their eyes meet on a busy street, Aether running to him, stopping just short of throwing his arms around his shoulders, only for Childe to gently call his name and--]

[In other words, he certainly didn't expect to run into him at a doujinshi festival, inspecting a body pillow with Aether's own likeness printed on the front, and a bonus version of him in a maid costume on the back.]

[Maybe he should have expected this. It's Nippon, after all.]

[His gaze flickers between Childe and the merchant. Curiously, the name of the "character" appears to be "Sora-chan".]


...well, go on then. Don't let me stop you from buying it if that's what you were looking for.

yakumo ▶ nu: carnival

[personal profile] nonrefractory 2022-05-01 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
— archive of our own
    it's such a happy and joyous festival that yakumo feels obligated to go. the smells of nature are sweet, the atmosphere is light and jovial...what's not to love?

    after perusing a variety of stalls, he stops across one that seems to be hawking art. the creative pursuits! how lovely! to admire the work of these talented artists seems the best way to appreciate their dedication to the craft! it's intriguing that some subjects appear to be similar to people he knows, and how...explicit some of these stories are. it isn't the first time he's come across pornography, but it's still quite thrilling to see it so publicly displayed.

    he's thumbed through a few other stacks, until one very familiar looking person on a cover catches his interest — it essentially looks like himself, albeit his hair is parted differently and signature earring is absent. other than that, his height, his build, his face all look exactly like the frame he's seen in the mirror countless times. not to mention, additionally: the exposed genitalia, so blatantly put on the cover, appears to be the same he's looked down to see since post-pubescence.

    sue him — he's curious. flipping through, quite a few positions are similar, even if the faces may not be...but other sexual exploits aren't quite so known to him. well, he knows that they can be done, but has he ever...received? no, but his fictional self sure has. is quite experienced, to boot.

    enthralled and bewildered by this find, yakumo's face is essentially concealed by the printed pages with how close his face is to the doujinshi, examining the story someone has concocted about his sexual proclivities. he's invested enough that any initial calls to interact with him go unnoticed. it'll require a pretty loud voice or forceful tap on the shoulder to grab his attention.

— flower power
    one would think yakumo learned from his adventures with uki that ingesting any foreign substance here would be an idea to think twice about, even if it's inhaling pollen from a plant. however, his experiences on an aphrodisiac weren't exactly negative, so...what's the harm?

    these purple flowers in particular seem to be causing the perfume of sweetness to linger in the air, and what a surprise — his nose is enveloped in a velveteen smooch. from a plant!

    perhaps it's the sweet gesture that's put him in such a good mood, but his essence feels like it's on a low-grade simmer. nothing so severe as last time, with the uki involved, but it still warms his skin with an itch that makes him want to just...be close to someone.

    there are enough people wandering around that yakumo is in close proximity to people on both sides. subconsciously, as he brushes alongside or past another person, his hand slips into theirs — squeeze light but persistent as they make contact.

    after a moment, he obviously realizes this is quite a forward gesture.
    Oh! Sorry! and yet...he isn't exactly letting go, either.

( okay, so this isn't the first time Steak has seen or even read any of these "fanfiction" things in Nippon. Last time, they actually paid off pretty well, insomuch as he ended up buying restraints and fucking Red Wine. But that doesn't mean it's any less embarrassing to see a whole stand of them out in the open like this.

Honestly, he'd have just walked on by, muttering comments about how ridiculous this all is if it weren't for the fact that he notices a very familiar pair of horns on the cover of one of the doujin just next to this guy who seems to be all but drooling over the pages.

... Gross.

Thankfully, Steak isn't one for slow build ups to his final demand, and so the voice that rings out next to this man is clear, irritated, and accompanied by a hand on his shoulder.
)

Move.

( And maybe take your head out of that book. )

openheartedly: (Wait wha?)

Lumine (traveler version) | Genshin Impact

[personal profile] openheartedly 2022-05-01 10:23 am (UTC)(link)
1 - Archive of Our Own
[Coming across the doujinshi festival, something so similar to what she'd left behind in Inazuma before being brought here, drew a small smile to Lumine's face. Having become aware of the time loop as she was, Lumine hadn't yet found a reason not to go along with the people who brought her here... so for now at least, she didn't see much harm in wandering the displays.

The books were fairly different from the few she'd browsed during the Irodori Festival, and while she didn't intend to spend what money she'd been given on these...that didn't mean she couldn't look right? General audience or 18+ she didn't really seem to take issue with the doujinshi she picked up, only blushing faintly if anything became exceptionally spicy.

It's the book with a character that shifts to appear to be her that gives her pause, eyes wide with surprise.]


Wait, what is this?

2 - Flower Power

[Lumine's explorations of this new world she's found herself in do eventually lead her to a quite pretty little garden full of flowers. There are some buds, she notices as she draws closer, only to gasp as they bloom before her eyes.

Curiously, and remembering flowers of Teyvat and other worlds still, she kneels beside the bed of lovely flowers, interested in what sort of scent these unique blooms must have. The bud closing against her nose is enough to draw in a startled gasp...that soon turns into charmed giggles. Had others noticed this peculiar flower?

The nearest person is likely to get her arm looped through theirs after she stands, smiling brightly at them.]
Do you know anything about these cute flowers? Maybe their name?

3 - Wildcard
[Happen to be wandering between attractions or trying to decide which you want to visit next? Lumine as well! Or perhaps trying to find your own apartment number (Kanto or Kansai flavor) in an unfamiliar place? Or maybe you're willing to help Lumine find hers when you know the place already?
This is also where the "choose your own adventure" option goes! Got something specific in mind? Cool! Let's chat about it in DM!]

[Coming across the Traveler's sister while looking around the festival isn't something Scaramouche expects, taking a moment to pause and make sure he wasn't seeing things. He recalls meeting her once in Nippon, but she'd left shortly after that and he'd been unfortunate enough to have to hear about it. If she had returned that meant Aether was either going to become more annoying than he already was, or suddenly become more bearable whenever they happened to cross paths again.

It's not in his intentions to stop and say hello, meaning to simply pass by, but her question catches his attention enough that he stops to peer over her shoulder. The character on the page bears a striking resemblance to the woman holding it, but given many of the books seem to feature refugees it's not particularly surprising. Aside from knowing she'd been present in Nippon before, the immortal can think of only one other reason why she would be in one of the doujinshi.]


It's magic.

[That or the natives worked incredibly fast.]

A. Spitten Wrangling


Jin Ling decides to help out in taking care of the villa to get it ready for the party. When he catches sight of the nyagumo his eyes widen and then brighten. Fairy woofs a bit and seems to be holding back from giving chase.

They are so... cute.

"Wonder if I can keep one," he murmurs, glancing toward Fairy who just cocks her head at him.

B. Flower Power


[ The flowers are interesting. Jin Ling has seen plenty of different sorts of flowers but the shape is unique and the color draws him in. He smiles to himself and he's certain there's no one around to see him stop and smell the flowers.

So he gets down so he can sniff one. He falls back on his ass when the petals moved and closed over his nose in the light 'kiss' of sorts. ]


What....!

[ The shock and spike of anger faded fast with warm feelings replacing and the urge... to hug someone.

Oh no. ]

[ Honestly, Lennon is deathly curious. He goes to the festival because why not, honestly? He curiously picks up one here or there to peruse. Some of them are very interesting after all! And he hasn't found himself and that's good, right. It's not like he's been there that long so hopefully he's flying under the radar.

He hums as he flips through one again, eyes lifting only to find the subject of the story he's reading in front of him. ]

A. Spittens!!!


[ Sawyer is looking for things to do and sprucing up a villa sounds right up his alley. He likes to clean and keep busy after all and so... he shows up.

He's not expecting the nyagumo but he's gentle with them as he starts to carry them outside one after another. He pets each one when he sets them down, murmuring something softly to them.

He's about to take a break and head home to make food for Bishop when he catches sight of a cute calico spitten all by itself outside the villa.

Glancing around he picks it up gently, petting it softly. ]


Can I take you home... [ He says softly, not sure if such a thing is allowed and then what if Bishop didn't want it and... he furrows his brow in indecision and trouble making a decision over it.

What can't be mistaken is how gentle and affectionate he's being with the thing and the inkling that he definitely doesn't want to set it down again -- it seems to like him as well. ]

Flower Power
[Honestly the second those flowers started blooming, Leona was doomed. His nose was far more sensitive than a human's, so the unfortunate fact is that with those flowers blooming all over Kyoto, he's unlikely to escape them when wandering the city.

Which means he's not going to be found just once, but a few times being.... bizarrely friendly, for the lion.

Maybe he's waiting in line at a convenience store and just rests his chin on someone's shoulder for a moment, or maybe he spots an acquaintance and struggles with the urge to reach out and hold their hand or pat their shoulder, hand raising and falling awkwardly. Depending on how much pollon he's inhaled, his iron self-control will crumble, and he'll give into those urges to touch.

[ thoma has a handful of things with plans to make dinner, the line in the convenience store moving incredibly slow for some reason. it's as he's adjusting items into one arm that he feels the weight on his shoulder and lightly against his back.

it has him glancing over, eyebrows arching as he sort of takes in the head beside his own, chuckling. ]


Tired? [ he's clearly not all that bothered by it, shifting everything into one hand as he'd intended so he can raise his newly-freed hand to gently pat his queue companion's hair, blinking when his fingertips brush against an ear. ]

Shiemi Moriyama | Blue Exorcist

[personal profile] weedlikespirit 2022-05-03 12:30 am (UTC)(link)
I. A TOTAL RECALL | 5/1

[ It had happened suddenly. One minute, Shiemi was opening the door to the house she shares -- shared? In Little Edo with her Yuki-chan. The next, she was... somewhere else. At the beginning of the loop in which she'd been stuck before the door to Nippon had appeared, she'd realized much to her horror and surprise. Escaping into the bathroom with so many feelings welling up in her chest. More with the realization of where she was, what that meant -- but what did that mean?

Seated on a bench in what she now knows to be Kyoto in Nippon after she'd found time frozen at loop's end and stepped, relieved, through the familiar door that had appeared, Shiemi isn't entirely sure. The door hadn't opened to the familiar faces of the scientists at the NRL, but that of strangers at the MRU whose answers to the questions she had had only inspired more questions.

She'd left with questions and a new set of government papers -- a new set of everything she had received the first time she'd stepped through the door because she'd been gone not for less than an hour, but a year...? A year and Yuki-chan's bond had snapped at the same time, they'd said. She'd have to check with the NRL in Tokyo to see if the house was still available. They'd said some other things. She remembers them, but they seem distant and unimportant as she stares down past the hands she's balled into the fabric of her clothes in her lap at some distance.

She'd told herself she wouldn't cry; and yet, she can feel the tears welling up in her eyes. An inquisitive nii reaches her ears and she drops her face into her hands. She's got to stop. She's got to be strong. The reassuring touch of her familiar's small digit against her cheek echoes her next thought. ]


I know, Nee-chan.

[ She says softly. She does. ]

II. ARCHIVE OF OUR OWN

[ A what festival? Shiemi blinks as she turns her eyes about, having wound up swept along in a large crowd heading that way. She isn't planning on staying. She's looking to figure out exactly the way she came when her eyes catch what appear to be manga? That gives her some pause. ]

Maybe we could stay and look around for a little while.

[ She says to Nee, who is also looking around happily if inquisitively from his position atop her shoulder. She takes a few steps in the direction of one of the displays, reading as she goes along. ]

"Doujinshi"? What is...

[ She trails off as her eyes fall upon a particular cover -- ]

Eh?!

[ -- and just about pop right out of her head, her cheeks flushing pink. ]

III. FORTUNATE FEELINGS

[ "Rare ancient artifacts" kind of sounded mysterious enough on its own to Shiemi. "Rare ancient artifacts said to possess fortune telling abilities" sounded mysterious and like it could maybe be a little demonic. That their predictions have never been wrong? That gave Shiemi an idea and she'd inquired further.

Now she just needs a... partner. ]


Um, excuse me!

[ She steps up to the next single person to approach. ]

I know we don't know each other, but would you please do this with me? There's something I need to know.

IV. FLOWER POWER

[ Although the circumstances of her presence in Kyoto aren't what Shiemi would call the best, that doesn't mean she's oblivious to the season and the abundance of flowering plant life. While the fact that a year has passed for... um, for Nippon? That's strange to her, but the myriad of colors, the waking trees and plants and blooming flowers is a familiar comfort that inspires a mix of relief and joy. The reminder that there are unfamiliar flowers in this different yet strangely similar world is one that's met with a smile and a refreshed curiosity, particularly when she overhears some Kitsune speaking about a flower they've never seen around here before.

Flowers that only bloom when someone is nearby...? It's as she's walking along the sidewalk that she notices some unfamiliar bulbs beginning to bloom as she gets closer. ]


Could it be...?

[ She smiles and hurries toward them. To her credit, she only trips and kisses the ground once on her way. She pops back up with a small laugh and an, "I'm okay," and she's hurrying over to them again, delighted to see the unfamiliar flowers in this particular bed have opened completely. ]

Hello to you, too. I've never met a flower like you before. I wonder what you smell like. If you don't mind.

[ The flower must not mind because Shiemi is leaning politely over to breathe in the flowers' scent. A strong breeze rises as she does and a wave of pollen is lifted and cast into the immediate surrounding area. She sneezes hard, cheeks already red before she stumbles back into a passerby. ]

A-ah! Excuse me!

A Total Recall

[personal profile] bingboom 2022-05-03 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
[It was still weird, being here, but not as weird as it was on the first day. It sucked because he missed Umbraton, with its dark alleys and shady dealings and questionable morals. He missed Gin, because damn, what was he going to do now that his brother isn't here? He's homesick, but that gets him nowhere, so he had to move and figure things out. Sure, it's not ideal, but nothing is lost, and that's what keeps him going.

And what keeps him exploring. This place, strange as it is, was less stressful when he thinks of it as a chance to expand his business opportunities. He ain't Taki, that guy had good business sense, but he knew what looked good and what he can sell about them, so that's what he's aiming for.

Seeing a girl almost crying is uh-- not it. Not it at all. Not marketable, unless you're a sicko into that, which is not him. His tail swings side to side anxiously as he considers if he should leave her alone or come to her. He doesn't even know her, and she's here looking miserable on a bright day (probably) in the hall looking miserable.

Damn, he should've turned left.]


Uh--

[Shit. He spoke. Now he needs to actually follow through.]

Hey, uh... Are you okay there, little miss?

[... Never mind that she's actually taller than him. Look, he's still half-dog. He ain't that big.]

i - ao3
[ there's a number of things wrong with what he's looking at right now.

first off, he doesn't have nearly that many eyelashes.

second off, he doesn't feel quite that strongly about his old foe.

third - literally everything else. ]


Now, see here. [ there's no unbridled anger in his tone, no coy amusement. it's just dry. given that he had personally suffered at the hands of Nidhogg for some time, this was probably to be expected. he may be a little offended at his depiction, but then again who wouldn't be? ]

If you mean this to be some form of jest, I suggest you find other ventures of opportunity to take up your time.

[ also, why is the dragon that fluffy--- ]

Get rid of them. Now.

ii - flower power
[ the thing about being as tall as he is in a land full of people that were heads shorter than himself - fulms, really - is that it's impossible to navigate many of the things made for people that were not of his build. how often had he slammed his head into the doorway discreetly hidden behind a cloth curtain? found himself fumbling over the ornamentations and decorations that hung across hallways and over pathways? at the rate he was going he would have to be in the market for a good healer sooner rather than later.

if you've been trailing along behind him you'll probably see it before it happens. as Estinien is a tall man, and with his attention caught by the strange rocks sitting in the middle of the road, it should make sense he's too distracted to notice the overhanging branch of flowers at perfect face level right in front of him.

enjoy the sight of a tall elf-man stumbling into a handful of these blooms facefirst, sputtering and inhaling more than a noseful of pollen. when he does manage to untangle himself there are undoubtedly blossoms in hs hair and he gives the flowers a look as if they'd personally insulted him. ]

Brand New Home: Uji | Nyagumo
[While more than happy to escort out the little, more friendly critters, Jeanne takes it upon herself to start trying to relocate as many as possible. But as she ascends the floors some of them start getting... bigger. More aggressive.

Until finally she's at the top floor, screaming, because she's not sure if this is just an aggressive pet or something she's allowed to vanquish.]


Stop this right now! You will be moved out and back where you belong! Do no make me hurt you!

[As if it can understand what she says as she dodges that mouth of fluff and fang.]

Flower Power
[Jeanne, a very curious creature, will unfortunately find herself kissed by plenty of flowers. And that's not including the free flowing pollen in the general air! Sorry, but you may have a short, stocky (curves and muscle, she's nearly a brickhouse) woman nuzzling against you much like a cat would.]

WILDCARD (Vampirism Included)
[Either tag Jeanne with your own prompt, or feel free to PM me to work something out and I can create a personalized starter for you! As a fun fact, Jeanne is a special type of vampire. And while she doesn't need blood to survive sometimes she does get a debilitating craving for it. Let me know if you'd be interested in this, or would rather avoid it.]

[ This place was atrocious! Well. Okay. Maybe his perception of what was atrocious and what wasn't differed with him due to his own experiences.

What had mattered was that he was still a bit tired, but at least properly dressed so he had some level of semblance of self back again after everything that had gone down that night. He'd at least taken to wandering around aimlessly, though it was when he found someone nuzzling against him that Vanitas prepared to quip something at them until he realized it was Jeanne.

It took every shred of his will power to manage to throw on that calm, cool facade the best he could, but it didn't diminish the soft pink clear along his cheeks. ]


Ah, my dear Jeanne! Aren't we surprisingly affectionate today?

1. Re-orientation

[Really... really, this is exciting, isn't it? As a fae, it's usually their job to be whisking people off to places and trapping them in eternal nightmares and the like! To find such a curious rift, chatting with the same person over and over until---

Well, that's neither here nor there at this point. They've gone through the entirety of their orientation, listened to chatter about kizuna (and how familiar it sounds, oh yes) and what their current "situation" is. Silly, really, to think they'll be stuck here too long. As they step out into the daylight though, they stretch and exhale a heavy sigh.]


Fuwaaaa~! What a mess. I'm a little impressed humans managed to screw it up this badly, hahah. [Their voice is androgynous, warm and light. Even without their wings out, they look rather ephemeral, with long, wavy, strawberry blond hair and delicate curved features - being just shy of five feet tall doesn't hurt matters. A hand rises to their lips as they scan the surroundings, eyes almost glimmering iridescent in the sunlight.] Now, who can I-- ah!

[Catching sight of someone, they raise a hand and wave to them, starting forward on the street.]

Hello, excuse me! Would you mind taking a moment to help a newcomer~?

2. You know, like "nyaa!"

[Having found their way to Uji, Loni is quick to volunteer to help deal with the nyagumo in the old villa. They're pleased as punch, in fact, when they meet their first one - and by the time they find anyone else, they've got a small stampede of kitteny followers trailing off behind them like ducklings. In this instance, their wings are out, shimmery and gleaming in the low-light, with soft pink at the bottom of the butterfly-wing shape turning more translucent on its way upward, until it's all a translucent, iridescent sheen.

They bend down to address a nyagumo, which rears up to bomp them on the nose.]


Come, come, my friends! Let's find your fellows, shall we? Heehee, I wonder if they'll let me keep more than one for myself after all of this.

Patchouli Knowledge | Touhou Project

[personal profile] heptagram 2022-05-04 09:32 am (UTC)(link)
1. ☼ film at 11

[It was a strange experience, for many reasons. What stuck with Patchouli the longest, however, was that she was really not the person suited to deal with this. Did Sakuya's abilities go haywire or something? It was too late to do anything about that, but she did still groan about it internally a little. She'd have to do what she could.

Unfortunately, there wasn't a ton she could do about it now, and so she decided to just wander off and see what she could find out about this place. She didn't like having to throw herself out into public like this, but if nothing
more could be done, well, she'd do what she had to. Couldn't exactly run away from this, right? Maybe she could find someone to be of assistance. Being on her own was somewhat of a foreign experience; she'd been best friends with Remi for how long? She'd always had friends to help her out. Maybe that was something she could manage.

When she came to Gion, she met that film producer. What she was told was a little... bizarre. Certainly it sounded like the other refugees were involved in some very dangerous things! She'd have to approach the world a bit more carefully than she'd anticipated. Still, her magic all seemed to be functional so far? Not that she'd tested all of it.

Perhaps experiencing this could tell her some more about her location and predicament, though, so she decided to participate in this film project. The auditioners were paired off; maybe she'd like the person she was partnered with. She hoped so, anyway.

Not long before it was their turn, she turned her attention to the partner she was assigned for her audition.]

sevendaywitch: Hello. I'm new here.
sevendaywitch: Is there a library with a very large amount of books I could visit?
sevendaywitch: Multiple suggestions very appreciated. I'll definitely put all of them to use.


3. ☼ where else would the ao3 prompt go except in slot 3?

[Two things have always been very important in the development of art, at least as long as one could fairly call them concepts: one is fan art (after all, how much of Western painting can just be thought of as bible fanart?), and the other is independent art. So, it should come as no surprise that Patchouli would take an interest in this festival. Hell, even "smut" is pretty important; not even in just a "'Dream of the Fisherman's Wife,' anyone?" kind of way, either! Not that she's the sort of person specifically seeking out sexual content for personal gratification 99% of the time, but it still can be a very interesting thing for other reasons, you know!

As she tours the festival, she has a look at a variety of the books on offer. All fairly interesting, but none make her pause as much as the one featuring... her, for some reason. She's not perfectly sure as to why this is. Could it just be coincidence?

Not likely. It's too well-drawn. It looks too much like her. It's in color -- a rarity for the books around here -- and the colors are dead-on. Eerily so. Haunted pornography, that's... a new one...

Okay. She's not sure she'd call it "haunted." But still.]


Hey. Hey, you. Where did you get something like this. [Yeah, she's not great with people sometimes. This is one of the many reasons she doesn't do the shopping. She shows the offending article to the shopkeeper. It's something possibly slightly odd even aside from being smutty -- her casting magic to use tentacles or something, maybe?

She looks a lot more curvaceous when she's not being covered by those robes, by the way. Yes, the art is accurate.]

[ The books are a godsend. They aren't perfectly to her taste, but she'll take "Haruna Saotome has a field day" over not having access to nice doujinshi at all. There might be libraries around, but she had yet to figure out if anything caught her fancy.

Though there was at least one book that had a girl way too similar to herself to be comfortable, being (pleasurably) tormented by a bunch of girls that looked like Setsuna... definitely not going down that rabbit hole.

So she'd been looking at this one doujin about a librarian who had loads of books and was... summoning tentacles on someone? Which was weird but definitely not something she hadn't encountered in a doujin before, when someone called out to her.

A spitting image of the girl in the doujin.

Konoka, flustered, looked back between the pages and the woman before managing to get out an answer.

It immediately steals his attention again when he becomes a witness to a comical spectacle of some newly lovestruck fool declaring their love for for a person just passing by.

The kitsune takes up a spot in the shade nearby the stone, idly enjoying smoking from his kiseru as he watches superstitious humans and young yokai foolishly fall under the spell. He smiles to himself, occasionally idly commenting.]


Did he actually think trying to arrest a stranger for 'sexy crimes' was going to work? How... pathetic. Hehehe.

2 | AO3
So that's how the people here choose to spend their time.

[Kuya has one delicate hand cupped to his face, the other occupied holding a book with 18+ MATURE bolded on the cover. The fox's expression doesn't change much from the playful smile as he flips the pages. It's not modesty that makes him stop on a page— a full spread of the top pushing the head of his cock into their bottom from behind.

He shifts his hand, moving his palm from one cheek to the other. It's very well illustrated. He gets the appeal of these little books now. How much money were these again? Couldn't he just take it.]


It could be bigger. [He reasons with himself.]

3 | Flower Power
[He doesn't know these plants like he knows the ones in his territory and while his experience with plantlife has taught him to treat all of them with caution until proven safe, he had hardly the chance to escape from pollen in the air. The tall kitsune sneezes, the air rippling behind him as the essence that makes up the 'aura' of his tail fluffs out.

After that, he's found himself in an intensely pleasant mood. Kuya is a loner that prefers the privacy of his home— people are generally a nuisance —but he finds himself craving contact. At times he can be found slipping his hands around someone's waist or just leaning his head on their shoulder.

At times in which the pollen is dense, his vulpine pupils are blown out to circles. In such a pleasant mood, his guard is completely down; his fox tail is completely visible, wagging back and forth like a joyous dog.]

Wildcard
[If you don't see something you like please just do whatever comes to mind since I'm still test driving this char. If you want your char to fall in love with Kuya in the 1st prompt go for it. The second prompt you can have your char be the one in the book is reading if you like.]

Mortals do tend to be quite conservative in their imaginations, don't they?

[Loni's voice comes from somewhere off to the side as the fae leans forward to peer at the cover of the book Kuya's reading... and pluck up another copy to peruse themself. who the two individuals in this are, they have no idea, but it makes no difference to them, and as long hair swishes past a handful of books, they glance up to the fox. They're not sure what he is, yet, but they certainly have an idea.]

Hoh. [long fingers stop the pages suddenly in spite of the fact that their eyes weren't really on it, lips shifting to a soft 'o' of consideration when they glance back down.] It really could be bigger, couldn't it? Maybe the author is just nervous. Or small themselves. Heehee.

Prim "Purin" Proper | Original

[personal profile] hypercriticals 2022-05-05 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
I. ARCHIVE OF OUR OWN

[ After the time she's had of things lately, Prim has thought on more than a few occasions that she's well overdue to come into a wealth of good fortune for all her troubles. That she was correct still manages to be a pleasant surprise when she thinks about the large sum of money she came into, and on the morning of the first day of the new month, too! It's certainly put a visible spring in her step. She's taken the day off from offering her services as a healer in Tokyo and decided to see where her feet take her today.

So far, they've seemed intent to lead her about Kyoto. There's no shortage of things to see and do. It seems like there's a festival around just about every corner. Literally. Like this "doujinshi" festival she's wandered into. ]


What manner of books are these?

[ Prim plucks one from a display and flips it open unceremoniously, curiously. After a moment, she glances briefly over the top of the book, then down only to doubletake.

Depending upon the height of the spotted celebrity, either a hand or her staff will gently tap their shoulder. ]


Excuse my intrusion, but I believe your likeness has been pilfered.

[ With that, she'll hold up the cover or a particular page of the book, orange eyes peeking over the top at the person. ]

II. FORTUNATE FEELINGS

[ When Prim had heard about the relics and their odd properties, she had near instantly changed her course and set out to investigate them. They're one of the more interesting things she's heard about today. That they're being used for such a purpose, though, doesn't quite dampen her plans. She can observe the statues and question those who go before them for whatever reason and she does, but she'd be remiss if she wasn't thorough about it. ]

You there!

[ She snaps a finger at a passerby. ]

You don't appear to have a partner for the purpose of this attraction. Perhaps we can be of some assistance to one another? Surely you have a question you'd like to ask.

III. FLOWER POWER

[ Unfamiliar flowers that only bloom when people are nearby? Prim is on the hunt for a specimen the instant she catches wind of them. They sound harmless enough. Even if they didn't, she's curious as to their properties and potential as a potion ingredient.

It should be an easy enough find. They are, even, with her coming upon a decent sized bed of them in short order. Of course, she's no fool. ]


Pardon me!

[ Her hand will find not the first sleeve that passes by, but that of a staked target. She'll have to make do and she begins with a saccharine smile. ]

Would you mind smelling this flower and describing its scent to me? I'd happily compensate you for your time.

[ That they're near enough for the bulbs to have started opening is something about which she is aware. The breeze rising, and with it the flowers' pollen, has yet to been realized as a concern by the young woman. ]

Kaedehara Kazuha | Genshin Impact

[personal profile] leafwhistle 2022-05-05 11:19 am (UTC)(link)
I | Love At First Sight
[Superstitious isn't exactly a word that Kazuha would use to describe himself, but he does have faith in some things. He's seen gods and monsters, wishes granted, and feats of powerful magic with his own eyes. His experience with love and relationships has always been an uphill battle, full of struggles of the heart and loss, so he figures that a harmless little luck ritual couldn't really hurt.

He's been in Nippon long enough to decide if it turns out he regrets this, then it was nothing he really should feel guilty over.

Crossing the distance between the stones is easy enough for him even with his eyes closed; he can hear where he was depending on the sound of his footsteps and judge the distance from how many he has left. His light feet make short work of the distance, and once he thinks he's made it to the other side, he hops in place as he stops and opens his eyes to verify how correct he is.

His eyes flick over the stone, his expression wide and pleased, but then he looks up and meets someone's eyes.]

II | AO3
[Kazuha's not really one for crowds, but as a poet, a cultural festival is a draw for him. The samurai was only mildly disappointed when he found the works skew towards light novels, but he does enjoy most written works; so he'd set out to the festival anyway; new experiences, after all, were the highlight of his life. Seeing someone dressed up at what looks like— a tall version of him, he thinks? Not exactly what he expected to see today.

At least Kazuha has a good sense of humor and is generally calm in most circumstances.

His cheeks are colored faintly as he just chooses not to engage with the costumed residents, instead turning his eyes upon the booths. Bright displays of maple leaves draw him over to one table in particular, and while the artist is distracted with another customer, he picks up one of the display books and starts to flip through it.
The artist notices him a moment later, startling. Kazuha lifts his eyes to her and smiles, then looks down at the pages again. Oh, is this a romance? Is that... Ah, that's him too. The samurai's face colors a little bit pink as he recalls this scenario— manhandling Scaramouche at the year end's party, how upset he'd been with him.

He flips a few more pages.

He's sucking the Harbinger's dick now against a wall. The samurai feels awkwardly compelled to comment, just to break the silence.]


Ah... that's a creative interpretation on how that went.

III | Cat Wrangling
Back for another piece? You must be hungry.

[He doesn't keep cats, but Kazuha is experienced with cats between the time traveling with his friend and his time in Wakayama. It seems a relatively easy task for him to assist with capturing the nyagumo, especially for a little pocket money on top of the pleasure.

Kazuha notoriously is never in a rush though, and after getting up from his afternoon nap outside the villa — a small spitten crawling into his lap and thus essentially handing itself over to him — he's gotten a bit distracted with playing with them.

He waves a little dried wheat stalk just over one of the nyagumo's heads, smiling as it swings four little arms at it. Seems the samurai is doing a little less relocating and instead is just playing and feeding them.]

i - if this is ok!

[personal profile] mistsplitter 2022-05-06 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
[ Ayaka was a little reluctant to pay a visit to the love festival, seeing as she's new and her eyes aren't that open to physical affection just yet. What made her come is her goal of holding her own festival here at some point. It will take some time, but she would like to be able to do it one day. She can only do so by observing current practises and festivals.

Throughout her observation process today, though? She seems to have forgotten what the stones mean, enraptured by how people participate in the activity with their eyes closed instead. A few couples were doing it earlier, one person walking, while the other at the end. Ayaka had only recently decided to stay close to the other stone, when a familiar face catches her eye.

Ah! And she's been wanting to meet him for a while now, too. And so, she waits... waits, until he opens his eyes and her gaze meets his. ]

Setsura Light née Yamaguchi | Original

[personal profile] chichichi 2022-05-06 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
[ It's a little before ten thirty in the morning when Setsura steps off the teleportation terminal and into the MRU and into a brisk walk. The large basket of anpan she leaves the scientists with a polite chirp of, "Good morning," should speak volumes as to her mood, which is good -- great, even, in the wake of the first wedding anniversary she'd celebrated with Lewin yesterday and now, it's time to make good on what she's treating as one of their anniversary gifts. And why not? She'd won a housing lottery and the terms are rather generous, so today, after considering the lot of places they've visited thus far and the potential pros and cons to each, she's here to shop about Kyoto for a house to call their own.

Well, more like a manor, actually, and not because because she or Lewin have some proclivity toward grandiose things. Having asked what he'd like in a house for the second time now -- the first had been in Prismatica when they'd needed more room -- and been thorough in parsing through her husband's more outlandish requests -- not to mention really sitting down and considering her wants, too, and their actual needs -- even a regular large house won't do and the option to customize whatever housing they choose only sounds more and more appealing.

But where to start in Kyoto? She gently pulls the tie out of her entirely too long hair and gathers it up to secure it in a loose bun atop her head. It's the first of May, the month of love, and she's sure the city is once again bustling more than usual with festivals and the like. She... doesn't mind it so much this year. Hasn't minded Spring so much despite the usual increased frequency and intensity of her arousals and drive, her acute awareness of similar changes in Nature and the 'civilized' world. The former is something she's lived with since puberty and traditionally an annoyance when she has other things to do, which, traditionally, has been most of the time in her world, but she isn't in her world. Romances still blossom. Proposals are planned and made and spring weddings hold as the romantic ideal many couples will make their reality here in Nippon.

No, she doesn't mind it so much. She's rather certain at this point that her fortune in matters of romance is ill, but she doesn't grudge others theirs. She has her Leaf with her this year and she thinks they've grown closer in their time together here. He likes her, and that's a thought coupled with her memory of his expression and fond tone yesterday that sees butterflies rise and flutter about in her chest as she steps onto the street proper.

Tapping the ear bud in her left ear to activate it, she takes a moment brief moment to stretch, then shrugs her bag and light jacket off and ties the latter around her waist. Dawning her bag again, she plucks a small paper no bigger than an index card out of it and observes the simple summoning circle drawn on it, then tucks it in her pocket.

Later, she thinks. When they're closer to the manors and maybe, just maybe she'll have her sylph friend stick around after that. As if in punctuation of the thought, pitch wings rip through the flesh of her back without disturbing her midriff. The blood is near instantly dissipated by the darkness that so closely clings to them. ]


Let's get to it.

[ She says, a smile tugging at her lips, and just like that, she's off into the air. ]

I. FORTUNATE FEELINGS

We've got to get Shizuko-san some new hobbies.

[ Pocketing her magi-comm with that thought, Setsura peers around the line of couples to see just how far it's moved since she last checked. Rare ancient artifacts said to possess fortune telling abilities that are never wrong? She's curious, of course, and somewhat amused about the purpose for which use of the statues is allowed.

There's probably a story about its misuse somewhere and she wonders if even using it for the purpose of matchmaking hasn't caused some sort of upheaval. Romantic relationships aren't the only sort and it isn't as though the statues give a detailed verbal or written answer that might provide some clarification.

Still, the opportunity to ask a single question in addition to having one's compatibility assessed is too rich to pass up; and so, here she stands. ]


It shouldn't be long now. Are you thirsty?

[ She looks to her present company. Pairs is a requirement, after all. ]

II. ARCHIVE OF OUR OWN

[ That there's a doujinshi festival isn't entirely surprising to Setsura, but it isn't on her list of expected events either. She'd been well aware of the existence of fan works about their lot beforehand thanks in part to Ranpo, who'd informed her that the house was, at some point, a hot ticket item with people -- neighbors? Writing about herself, Dazai, Higuchi, Chuuya, and Akutagawa. Considering the refugees' growing celebrity, she can see how they arrived at this very enthusiastic if a bit weird point.

It's a shame Rohan isn't here to experience it. Then again, seeing the cosplayers, she... well, no. It's still a shame Rohan isn't here to experience it.

With her wings put away, Setsura ventures into the booths to peruse the various works the natives have come up with. There are people she recognizes on some covers and others she doesn't. Genres, quality of all sorts.

Perhaps you'll bump into her while she's perusing the doujinshi amidst the booths or notice her sitting with a doujin in hand nearby. There are a couple of artists practically vibrating in their seats watching her and it's no wonder why. There are a good number of works at this function that feature her or some character that looks like her. She's a minor celebrity in Shitaya, after all, and the owner of the Kennel, Tokyo's premiere fight club, as well as a regular participant in the matches there. She's a nawashi for hire by appointment, too. An active refugee or something like that, she gets around. A lot, apparently. There's a few works featuring her in every genre, but a notable wealth in pornography and... romance? Series, she's noticed, and while some pair her with refugees she knows, some pair her with refugees she doesn't or doesn't know that well.

Who knows what you'll stumble upon her reading? Or taking a quick picture of. Or about which she might be making the confidence declaration of -- ]


That's completely out of character.

[ -- as she turns yet another page. ]

III. FLOWER POWER

[ Setsura knows better than to go sniffing strange, unfamiliar flowers, especially flowers that are strange and unfamiliar to the locals. Were she in her world, she would have cautious. Here, where plants like the nuraname bloom exist, she's more so, but not to the point of avoiding them completely. These are flowers as opposed to horny vines and there's been no report of anything nefarious about them. She's listened using her ears and several other pairs via her night sparrow familiars.

What she isn't quite expecting is a face full of pollen courtesy of someone utilizing wind magic to clear their storefront of debris as she's passing by on her way in search of a place to grab a bite to eat. She sneezes once, twice, three, four times and stops in place, bringing her hands up to cover her mouth and nose.

She doesn't think much of it as she continues to go about her today. Doesn't think much of it when she slips her hand into someone else's on the street. ]


So, where are we going?
