[silvertongueheir]

For part 2 of the event, can people make multiple bowls of soup that share different memories?

[challengesfate]

Character Name: Lucina
CR Wanted: All kinds of CR! She's new to the game knows nobody!
CR Not Wanted: n/a, hit me with all that CR
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: I definitely want Lucina to experience Part Two of March's events in full, and the dreams in Part Three. For Part One, however, she's not going to be influenced to stick to one color, but since her scheme is primarily blue anyway, I'd love it if she could have some negative encounters with the folks who are primarily Against Blue.

[justbeingknife]

does lucina like RACE CARS

because if you're up for a dumb thread, Majima's challenging all nonreds to what is essentially a race with souped up Hot Wheels

[inconsequence]

Character Name: Chara Dreemurr
CR Wanted: Any! They lend themself well to negative cr because they're a cagey lil prick, but if anyone is visibly nonhuman in any way, they're likely to feel protective of you, or compelled to be friendly, and will be much more amenable to positive CR.
CR Not Wanted: Nothing romantic theyre Babey
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: Parts 2 and 3 for SURE. 2 because Chara's in a point in canon where their best memories aren't bitter resentful things now lol, and 3 because they get to be a bear. thats rad. they dont even wanna turn back into a person. you wanna try and make them? please do, but they will kind of love being a bear. i'm on the fence in terms of part 1 but if you wanna play around with that, know that they wear primarily green and yellow so if you wanna get snappy about their color choices, feel free!

[grotesqueobserver]

Visibly nonhuman, you say? :D

[missingache]

Character Name: Pidge Gunderson
CR Wanted: Any and all is good!
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
- Colors: Pidge is already partial to green, but she will not be affected by this event. Feel free to have your character dislike/like her for her color choice. She is the Green Paladin after all
- Memory Share: She will not have memories to share, but I am more than good with her being there for others. It's not that she doesn't have happy memories, she's just a guarded person when it comes to her own memories.
- BEAR: PIDGE AS BEAR specifically a type known as a Cinnamon bear
- Other plans: She's going to be a little more active all around, so if there's something specific you want from her, I am all up for planning.

Character Name: Roxas
CR Wanted: Any and all!!!
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
- Color: Blue. Roxas will be obsessed with the color blue. That's it.
- Memory Share: There's a few memories I am choosing from, and am up for anyone he has friendly CR with to be a part of this. They will not be spoilery for KH3.
- Bear: This boy will not be a bear, but man, he will want to pet all the bears. If you're up for that, lemme know! He loves animals.
- Other plans: Roxas is always up for more things to learn about, like cooking and how to take care of himself in general. Also up for anyone who wants to have a doggy play date since he has his husky Velvet. He's canon updated to be KH3 compliant, so if anyone wants to do something with that, lemme know!

If you don't wanna plan here, I am also on plurk @chromatus

[challengesfate]

Silas I know we already plan for Pidge and Lucina CR somehow but also...let Lucina meet the boy...

[boyobscured]

Character Name: Credence Barebone
CR Wanted: Any and all! He’s a newbie so he needs interaction. He’s also shy! Pls bother him
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: Part 2 for sure. HOWEVER, he has had a pretty shitty life so he doesn’t have real good memories to share. I’d love to have him see others tho bcseeing other people happy could be a hopeful thing for him?

I’ll probably give him bear dreams for part 3 but no transformations. He has enough trouble staying in his own skin as it is lol. I’m considering Part 1. But for now, know that the clothes he arrived with are primarily red so feel free to bother him or antagonise him. Fair warning: antagonising Credence could be dangerous (and I’m really into it so you know, go nuts).

[norivals]

Hello fellow new person and also RED-loving person. Let's be friends?

[charlieoscar]

Character Name: Mike Slattery
CR Wanted: All the types, continuing and new alike!
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: I want bear!Mike so badly I can taste it. I'm interested in playing out a mixture of human awareness in bear form, for pure shenanigans, and also the more bleak bear is bear moments to cover the full gambit of hilarity and destruction. But I'm not certain I want him to go full fear for extended lengths of the plot, just a few lost hours here or there, maybe a day or two. As for how to bring him back... I'm not sure? Somebody in F.E.A.R. want to take him in and poke him for a few days, lol?

[rosydisposition]

Character Name: Shuichi Minamino/Kurama
CR Wanted: All the things! Finally getting back to RP a bit more and welcome it all. Negative, positive, anything inbetween.
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

Part 1: Kurama's preferred colors are green and yellow event wise. He can be quite the vindictive jerk when he wants to be, but I'm not sure how affected I'd like him to be. Though as a person who prides himself on his intelligence and comprehension, it'd hit a sore spot if he was afflicted. Of course, I'm all for the sore spot hitting.

Part 2: Definitely up for this. Kurama's most comforting memories aren't necessarily typical. He's very old and spent most of those years as a thieving demon. Some with his friends and mother are, of course, available. If you have a preference, let me know.

Part 3: Fox demon turned bear? He'd be salty af, let's be real. Not sure how I want to play this out. Probably not going with the bear route unless someone wants that CR. However, he is available to help anyone else out!


Also open to regular things. Kurama will likely extend invitations to go check out the new shops, to anyone he has met or finds interesting. He promises to treat his good shopping partner with a meal for putting up with it. So, honestly, anyone is welcome to it, he watches the network like a hawk, even if he doesn't respond. We can combine Part 1 or 3 with it!

Or if you'd like to do any previously mentioned meet-ups, that's available too! Up for anything!

[onerthes]

*chuckle* They could share a little about memories involving another three-eyed chap of his acquaintance if you'd like.

[justbeingknife]

Character Name: Majima Gorō
CR Wanted: I like comedy, action, and drama. Preferably as many as possible in a single thread. C'moooon tonal dissonance
CR Not Wanted: I guess negative cr that doesn't really go anywhere?
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
COLOR CODED CORRUPTION: I might toy with this one; I don't think Majima will be super at someone's throat about it but I'd kind of be into a stupid schoolyard argument about whether red cars are better than green cars or whatever YOU JUST DON'T APPRECIATE HOW AMAZING RED IS.

MOTHER'S GUILD: A happy memory? Into the memory sharing and general chatting with the mother's guild. I'm not sure which memory I'll use, probably the most ridiculous ones I can think of.

BEARLY THERE: Not sure if I'll have Majima transform for this one, but if you want to have dumb threads with ill-advised bear shenanigans, I promise to make the puns unBEARable. Maybe a bear can chase him down and try to maul him, that would be fun.

Feel free to plot @Tetradecimal as well!

[mightdoriya]

HEY THERE I'd love for Izuku and Majima to run into each other again! Maybe with the guild or bear prompt, I'm down with either \o/

Izuku's gonna be a fuzzy little bear cub...very small, very fluffy. He could always try to maul Majima once he transcends to Full Bear I guess but the best he'd manage is aggressively trying to rip his pantleg. Otherwise he'll probably be pretty docile and actually kinda skittish once he realizes that doesn't work.

Grey / Eames

[casuistic]

Character Name: Meames & Grey
CR Wanted: Bring it. Anything from negative to positive and everything in between. Eames needs ppl to have random snarky conversations with and possibly people to bug and annoy because it's what he does.
Grey is always in need of people who can push him to see a little more good in the world. But he's awfully easy to have negative CR with. Just saying.
In general I'm all for anything. C:
CR Not Wanted: I'd rather aim for CR that will build into something rather than pointless, random things that will never go anywhere.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
Eames will be wearing a lot of orange. Because I find it hilarious to think that he would be hit with this particular problem. He will slip right into the crazy given how paranoid and already disengaged he is. He won't be particularly nasty to anyone, but he just thinks they can't be trusted. At all. He will hermit in his apartment for a couple of weeks and not answer any calls. If you visit him, you'll find him painting a lot of orange things and stalking his neighbours... Help?
He'll also be following the will-o-wisps to the soup-kitchens. Sharing memories might be an interesting idea? I'd happily volunteer him to share your character's memories or if you want yours to taste his spicy soup, he'll share something about his past. It'll probably be something rather wild and unhinged, just a fair warning. Maybe skydiving.

Grey is going to be spending quite a bit of time at the Stones. He'll be reading the stories on the stones and talking with the ladies to the last light of the day. Probably several times. It'll tickle his curiosity and he'll be hounding those little clues rather eagerly. Soup sharing might happen once with him, but beyond that, it's going to be a nope kind of experience. He's not eager to share and once he realises what the soup does, it's going to be a big no no for him. If you are specifically interested in sharing a memory with him, let me know. C: We can look into it! But he'll be happy to talk about whatever's going on there, dick around with the magic that floats at the place and definitely try quite a bit of curious things that might or might not end well.
He will also have some bear dreams. Not sure if he'll go full bear. Dohoho. But I'm so tempted. He's much more used to animal skin than most people, so he might not be that troubled by it. He might even slip into full mental bear without even realising it. Convincing him to return back to his own skin might be a little difficult. (He would probably prefer to be a bear. sob.) But I'd be so happy to have a few threads about interpreting bear dreams before it gets to that point. Symbolism and animal guides are right in his wheelhouse. One of his spirit guides is a bear so he probably will take those dreams quite seriously the moment they start to appear.

Hey boo boo... (CW mention of drug/alcohol abuse)

[onerthes]

Character Name: Vira-Lorr
CR Wanted: Any and All
CR Not Wanted: None that I can think of at this time.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

1) Colors -

So, yes. I'll be doing this. A few times. Only once will I 'devolve' Vira, I think, and her return to normal will be an automatic thing. I'd rather not deal with convalescence of the mind. I'm open to a few color shifts here and there. Usually not more than 1-3 days at a time. Any old color will do (other than purple. She already wears that, and I want her to dress silly for this.).

Her devolution may come at the start of April for a week. I kind of want enough time to pick up a couple people who will have the same color as her so she has people to plot with, and others to plot against.

So, gimme a buzz. I'm still formulating and percolating on this, but if you're interested in a week of wearing something dumb like bright fire-engine red and hating all those orange kids (or being the bastard wearing blue in the scene), lemme know.

I will probably address a separate plot log for color shenanigans (or a separate top level). Because I can plot out stuff involving bears and circle stones right now.

2) Circle Stones
Yep, totally into this. This is an easy one to do, so just hop aboard if you want mild, suspicious and exploratory shenanigans leading to... soup.

3) Bear with me, I've got bear puns that are pawsotively awful.
-She drinks too much. If I didn't hammer this nail into the woodgrain so hard that I'd split it, I'm sure you guys could still see it. It's absolutely infamous in her canon, and her friends have all enabled it and put up with her drunken shenanigans, but like any heavy-duty addict, she's almost certainly hurt people. She's all too happy to soporify her bad days with whatever chemical she can get her hands on, and she hasn't always made the wisest choices when she's done it. Now, in truth? She's extremely fortunate. Nobody in canon or in Deerington has been seriously hurt by her deeply ingrained behavior, and there's never been a need for an intervention in the sense of "You fucked up my life" but it's only a matter of time.

So that's the elephant, ahem, bear in the room for her. I will be doing this to her the last week of March with dreams building up. Because she hasn't actually hurt anyone, her dreams are going to hint to her she's always drinking in them. She'l stay a bear for a week, with three eyes. At the end of the week, she will revert. She might learn something, but the message is vague enough that she probably won't.

I am totally open to someone trying to get through to her. After a few hours of irritation, she's going to decide to just flipping run with it and have fun as a three eyed bear because screw it, this is a LOT better than the last events were. It's a little disconcerting and horrifying, but what will wig her out most in April is that she was way too 'ok' with it (being a bear became an escape, just like the booze.). Anyone wanna frolic in the woods as BooBoo to her Yogi?

[earps]

Functioning alcoholic, meet other functioning alcoholic?

[nightroadsaint]

Character Name: Abel Nightroad
CR Wanted: Any! He's new. Hopefully positive CR that will leads to close bonds and friendships
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

Color coded: Not sure how to react to this one. Being a priest, he usually wears black or blue, and lose his ability to concentrate on speaking (I was thinking stuttering). Feel free to police on his poor fashion choice, I guess?

Mother's Guild/Soups: Seems like a good day to have lunch with someone. He'll be curious to go to the National Park and have a bowl of soup and eat with someone and chat up a stranger to make friends. He'll definitely chat up happy memories he has and chats away, shooting the breeze.

Bearly there: I'm so down in turning him into a bear. Abel has issues wanting to be friends with humans since he's a vampire who lived a long life killing them and felt regret/remorse for his actions, and he wanted to let humans know he wanted to be their friend and not their enemy. He has issues feeling like he was a monster as it is. He will be a tame and friendly bear, looking for humans to connect with and in need of assistance, asking for help. If people pet him, feed him food or chat with him, that will help him back to his transformation.

Abel will be a blue-eyed brown bear. I would rather have him mentally be himself during the bear form, so he can be seen as a friendly bear and accompany people around the neighborhood, so he can transform himself back to human before he loses his sense of self and thinks he's a bear completely. Meaning he'll be a bear for a short time and during that period, he won't have much time before he can save himself to return back to his vampire human self.

Or another route, since Abel will happily assist anyone, if I choose to remain human for the event, he may interact with the bears and help them by forming bonds/connections and chatting up with them and help your character return back to their human form. That works.

Feel to plot with me at thornheart or drop an ooc note here! Let me know if CR/friendships with him interest you.

[kiseijuu]

Hello! I was reading Abel's application and he sounds like a very interesting guy. I have Parasyte's Shinichi Izumi here, a painfully altruistic teenage nerd who is also host to a parasitic alien entity that took over his arm/hand...

Shinichi's struggling with some ~moral strife of his own (not wanting to be seen as a "monster" himself, dealing with some weird mental changes as a result of said alien parasite, questioning what "humanity" really is and all that fun stuff!), so Abel being a vampire struggling with feeling like a monster could make for some really interesting interaction.

I'd definitely like to hit up your top level, but I thought I'd check to see if there's anything in particular you might want to do first!

[silvertongueheir]

Character Name: Franciscus Erkens
CR Wanted: Everything pretty much!
CR Not Wanted: None
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

Probably not going to be doing much with the color part, though Franciscus will totally be up to judge your characters' various poor fashion choices. Let me know if you want him to snap your character out of it with a fashion lecture or something.

I'm definitely up for memory sharing! Franciscus has memories both from his "original" life and his experiences in Cartesio. Though he might be reluctant to share with people once he realizes what the soup does, unless you're someone he knows already or the memory is relatively harmless.

And Franciscus is definitely going to turn into a bear at some point. Or, to be more specific, an Ursaring. Hey, at least he's still kind of bipedal? He'll be pretty tame, all things said, since even wild Pokemon usually don't get too aggressive with humans.

Plotting for Airy Miller & Justine~!

[imaginationswoes]

Character Name: Justine | The Dresden Files
CR Wanted: Everything! Justine is in a relationship (which is unusual for anyone who knows her canon) but I'm excited for friends and enemies and people for her to be suspicious of or people to kill her. Come at me.
CR Not Wanted: n/a
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

- Justine loves fashion and generally wears white which is a very obvious lack of color. So I'll be asking about that in terms of hate with the other colors but she'll likely notice and point out that something is happening with colors. She'd notice this pretty quickly because she pays attention to clothes lol.

Maybe a network post about it?

I love that it has to do with fashion because that is Justine's jam.

Bears ... yeah, I think that Justine would make an awesome bear. She always has things on her mind and messing with vivid dreams sound like fun too! So if you want to interact with bear her or have her talk about her dreams. I promise to make it interesting.

Character Name: Airy Miller | Original Character
CR Wanted: Everything! I'd love for Airy to find people to get close to, like a nice friend group that she can rely on in this messed up world, maybe a ship if the chemistry is right because I love shipping or people to annoy her so that she can get snarky with because it doesn't happen often.
CR Not Wanted: n/a
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

- Airy will probably have a color attached to her and not even realize it. Because that seems like fun. I'd love to have issues with speaking like everyone is speaking in another language and she can only communicate with texting for like a week? It'd be something that someone else might have to figure out for her lol.

She's kinda dense.

will-o-the-wisp - Airy will follows these and probably poke around everywhere and end up having fun because that's totally in her nature. She might recognize her own story on the stones, not because she's good at reading that kind of thing but because she's seen something like that before and I imagine it's similar. SO that would totally weird Airy out.

Soup Girl - This became a nickname in Deerington so you know that she'll be making soup and her memory will be of Island Falls Maine with her family (who are all dead now) and it'll be super cute for those interested in seeing simpler times.

Dreamsagain. Really I'm down for anything.

General Note: I ended up falling a little behind last month. I'd like to do more closed things this month or have things set up more. So hit me up. I'll be making rounds around the plotting posts when I have time. i.e. not at work :p

Poke me on plurk mizuyoko or Discord PhantomStar#1298.

[justbeingknife]

Dreams or bear things sound fun!

[mightdoriya]

Character Name: Midoriya Izuku
CR Wanted: ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING I WANT EVERYONE
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

Color Coded Corruption: I'll be playing with this one a little, but it's going to be on the lighter end of the spectrum. Izuku's going to be struck by the color Orange mainly because he doesn't own a single damn orange thing and is going to be hugely embarrassed by how...orange his apartment has become by the time he's snapped out of it. He won't delve too deep into the othering mentality because he dealt with a great deal of mind/personality altering during February's event. If anything he'll definitely argue with you as to why Orange is better. I'm open to him to being persuaded to another color though, as many times as it ends up happening. I'm very flexible come at him bro.

The Mother's Guild: I'll also have Izuku visiting this because he's an intensely curious boy and he would absolutely follow the wisps to check out what's up. The only plans I have for the festival itself are general exploring and trying to figure out what's going on. I am keen on having him make at least one soup, though...and I'd love for characters to help him out in making it! Back home he would help his mother cook, but he's not really as experienced with trying to make something from scratch on his own. But soup can't be too hard, right? I'd also love to have him share memories via the soup as well.

Bearly There: I got so excited seeing a transformation prompt so, yes, Izuku is absolutely going to be a bear. He's going to transform into the fluffiest Asian Black Bear/Moon Bear cub you've ever seen in your life. I'm going to have both a time where he's himself as a bear, and just...completely a bear. I haven't yet thought of what it might be that he needs to do to turn back into a bear, but it doesn't necessarily have to do with his mistakes from home/past issues his friends in Deerington might not be able to help him with as easily. If anybody has any ideas for this or would like to help Izuku out, let me know!!

NOTE: In the interest of keeping my tagload from getting out of hand, though I will be putting up a toplevel I probably will try...my best (keyword: try) not to tag out too crazy this time around. I'll definitely be wanting to hit people up if we have plotted something specific, though!

If you want to plot with me further, you can hit me up on plurk winterbolt or Discord: Chiluver#6626

[challengesfate]

Chi

I'm gonna heckin pet Izuku bear

Reaper | Overwatch

[no_reload]

Character Name: Reaper
CR Wanted: He generally doesn't earn himself more than negative or maybe gray area CR, so let's go with that. He's in a particularly bad mood this month, so I'm expecting higher than average negative CR. If you want some, come at me!
CR Not Wanted: No positive CR. He's allergic. Just kidding!
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
Colour Racism: Reaper will not be participating in this part aside from potentially getting into fights about it. He wears all black with some red.

Mother's Guild: His prime for having a wisp coming to him, and he will eventually follow one into the forest because it's annoying. However, once he steps into new dimension full of Irish happiness, he won't be joining in further than watching. Guilty maybe? Surly unhappiness? Definitely.

Bearly There: I'm thinking yes to him turning into a bear, a giant Kodiak bear who is supposed to be brown but is so dark that he's almost black. Depending on the CR, he may become aggressive quickly. He will also have a big black dog running around with him; they come at a match set.

If plotting here isn't your cup of tea, feel free to hit me up on plurk at apomorphine

[norivals]

So I just got here but...red gang? I mean, it would be short lived, but if they crew up and start a fight or two that would be awesome.

Jyushimatsu Matsuno | Osomatsu-san

[yakyuuman]

Character Name: Jyushimatsu Matsuno
CR Wanted: Everything! Friendship, romantic, negative, etc!
CR Not Wanted: Nothing in mind atm!
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: I WANNA DO EVERY PROMPT!

Jyushimatsu will be wearing yellow stuff of course, it's his coding color, I can't have him get into any other color even if it would be funny to get him purple or blue eventually. Feel free to have your character try to sway him to their color side or bicker with him. He will be plenty irritated with other colors himself.

He will also follow the will-o-wisps! Let's get on adventure stuff in this festival full of women he will be so happy to participate in! Your character can tag along and we can do specific prompts if there's stuff you wanna do, but for my top level I'll go for generic prompts.

And lastly HE WILL BECOME BEAR!!!! Definitely a bear who still maintains his personality traits and try to play baseball with his big bear paws. Please witness that and make fun of him.

For specific plots hmu here of course or come over at gaiamemories !

[challengesfate]

Oh my hello I would like to see baseball bear

[earps]

Character Name: Wynonna Earp
CR Wanted: All kinds of CR! Friends, found family, drinking buddies, people for her to wait on at the Hair of the Dog (because she works there now), folks with supernatural/demon-type experience.
CR Not Wanted: Ideally, not super negative CR of any kind buuuut I'd be fine with her having a frenemy or someone she gently butts heads with from time to time.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: So the only part of the event that I'm primarily interested in Wynonna being affected by directly this time around is the mother's guild, because MEMSHARE — and not only memoryshare, but soft memories too (which is honestly a nice change-up from how that went down for her in another game)! If you'd be interested in receiving one of Wynonna's happy memories to watch, let me know and we can thread something. Otherwise, she's mostly going to be participating in a reactionary sense with color coded corruption and bearly there, because I find it completely hilarious that she is going to have to deal with several people around her just turning into bears all of a sudden and having to carry on one-sided convos with them. What I'm saying is I want bear threads, PLEASE AND THANKS.

Happy to plot either here or on plurk at favoritings!

[mightdoriya]

Hi hello I am Down with soft memory sharing

[tagartist]

Character Name: Chloe Price
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: Chloe's not gonna be affected by the color things, but she has a tendency to only wear blue, so I'd be down for anyone hating her for it if they wanted and her wondering wtf was up with them

If anyone wants to partake in some memory shares with her, I'd also be down for that. Chloe doesn't have a lot of happy memories, but she's got a few!! Somewhere. In there. People are also welcome to find her story on the stones.

---

Character Name: Moira O'Deorain
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: IDK if I'm gonna hav Moira partake in the color event or not. If she does, she already wears tons of purple, so she'll probably stick with that. I haven't decided on whether or not she'll stick it out long enough to lose any of her reading/hearing/seeing abilities, but I'm willing to plot something with it if someone is interested.

She will ABSOLUTELY be at this Irish party though and she will be speaking Gaelic and enjoying herself IMMENSELY. It will be like a taste of home and she will have a very hard time leaving it. Someone might have to drag her.

Moira isn't likely to share her soup unless someone really bothers her about it. If you'd like any of her memories, let me know.

She'll also very likely be studying the stones, so if you're cool with her finding parts of your characters story, I'd be up for plotting something with that! She'll be taking notes down on everything she can decipher.

[azurestar]

/reaches for. Give me both! Moira can find lance's story if she wants. He probably won't be super great at the deciphering of stones himself but he'd be interested in what she's doing over there too. Also memorieeees~

[thebigred]

Character Name: Clifford Norman
CR Wanted: Everything and anything! He needs more buddies his own age, but could certainly use some older mentors or bad influences.
CR Not Wanted: there is no such thing please give me all of it

Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

Cliff is absolutely 100% going to follow a will-o-the-wisp into the woods because the *last* time he followed strange lights somewhere turned out so frickin' well (it didn't). Would love for friends and acquaintances to go with him, share some soup memories, hang out in the woods where he's actually comfortable, maybe even have some wolf times?

Also bears. BEARS. Bears are kind of a big deal in Cliff's canon and so he'll be transforming into a white faced bear cub, very similar to the mythical creature that protects him for some reason back in Podunk. He'll have some success maintaining his humanity since he's used to switching into animal shapes, but post event he'll have a much harder time controlling the werewolf side of himself. I would love to mess around with this as much as possible as it could trigger some shit for him.

[azurestar]

I would love more stuff with Cliff! Lance will be a Grolar bear and they should have bear shenanigans... we can thread or handwave that though since I plan to have Lance go full bear and mostly be on autopilot. I'm also down for post event stuff if he needs someone loyal and reliable with a poor sense of self preservation to help him through haha

[newtralize]

Character Name: Newt Scamander
CR Wanted: Any CR! Cop out answer, but I am pretty open to anything!
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

Color Coded Corruption
Newt won't be personally affected by this. He does seem to wear a few of the same colors in his wardrobe and I'm happy to play out this part of the event with characters who do get affected!

The Mother's Guild
I will definitely be doing this. Newt just got canon updated so he's definitely feeling rather sad and lonely and a good target for the wisps.

Newt will join the festivities and probably also spend a lot of time examining the rocks. The standing rocks will definitely catch his eye and interest.

As for the soups, Newt will make a soup and be happy to share (even if he does or doesn't know what it does right away), since he's the type to be friendly to others. I'd be happy to share memories with others!

Bearly There
I won't have him be having dreams or turning in a bear, but I would love for him to interact with people who have.

It is impossible for me to not want Newt interact with creatures and the idea of Newt surrounded by bears is just oddly hilarious to me. Please give me bear interactions!

I've got a Top-Level up on the event!

If event stuff isn't your cup of tea, I have an open log here and a top level at Chloe's party here and I'm happy to write a starter on my log for non event activities!

You can hit me up here on this comment or my plurk rakuranger !!!

Character Name: Hernan "Shades" Alvarez
CR Wanted: Pretty much anything. Come at me bros!
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
Part 1: While Shades' wardrobe is basically all black, I think he'll start deciding he likes red too and starting peppering it in. Little things like a new pocket square, or tie, or shirt. Nothing crazy. Well he'll be a little crazy, though. Ideally, I would love for him to snap at someone and badly injure them (probably not kill). Possibly because of mishearing them, or just because he's prone to violence and starting a small gang based on color coding just seems natural for him.

I most likely won't participate in Part 2 since he's too cautious to follow the wisps. Maybe a character could drag him but I highly doubt that at this early stage in the game.

As for Part 3, I am strongly leaning towards him transforming into a bear. Killing his best friend is definitely weighing on his mind, so those nightmares will be in full force. The bear transformation may follow. I think he'll hang onto the vestiges of his humanity with all his will until the end, but as for pulling him out if he hurts someone in part 1 it will be an excellent way for him to try to make up for that in part 3 and I love me some villain atoning. If I don't have a good way to bring him back from the bear, I may extend the effects of Part 1 through April. Open to suggestions!

HEY FRIEND! You may remember me playing a rambunctious 9-year-old captain in Drift Fleet, haha? I'm totally cool with him injuring this kiddo here as he's trying to help people who're losing themselves to both the color effect and to being a bear, so he's always around! IDK just how badly you're looking to injure someone — would injuring him on his midsection work okay, so he can properly hide it? My only stipulation is it would need to be something that he could get around with and mask from others unless prodded. :|a

and here's his top level, if you wanna take a gander! The first section has him stopping people from getting too aggressive.

Ellie & Lance!

[azurestar]

Character Name: Lance (Voltron)
CR Wanted: Any!
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: I'm going to be taking it easy on Lance this month. He won't be affected by the colors event, but feel free to have people get mad at him for mixing colors (usually blue and dashes of other stuff). He'll definitely visit the Irish festival and have some good memories he won't mind sharing with positive CR. He will also become a bear, a big Grolar bear because he has lots of issues lately, and relationship issues with a couple people *cough*keithandallura*cough*. He will probably rifle through dumpsters and drag an empty one off into the woods to make a den out of when he goes full bear mode because he is a trash bear and wants to hide from everything. Most of his month will be spent on bear autopilot, but I am down for threading one or two light things as bears, especially if your character may be able to help him become human again... though that will be hard.

Character Name: Ellie (The Last of Us)
CR Wanted: ALL!
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: Ellie may be affected a little by the colors event. Her color of choice would be Red, but I'm not sure I'll take it too far with her. She will have to be convinced to follow the will-o-the-whisp, and I'd like her to eventually end up at the Irish festival. She will probably not want to share her memory, but I am down for an accidental share of some kind! Her memory will likely be of her last day with Riley. Ellie will also become a bear, but will be more available as a bear for interaction and shenanigans. She will be a small adolescent american black bear and will try very hard to get the attention of people she knows as a bear. She'd rather not stay a bear, but she will think it's cool and test out all her bear abilities!

Hit me here with ideas for plotting or on spypigeon, or I can be found in the game's discord server as 'charley | lance & ellie' if you'd like to DM me there!

I will also not be top leveling with either Ellie or Lance, so if you aren't either and want to thread something I am happy to discuss possible closed prompts!

[fayzedandconfused]

woooould you be interested in doing something with breeze and ellie this month? if you're swamped i totally get it but it could be fun to do memshares with them or stuff with ellie stuck as a bear

[laminae]

Character Name: Fern
CR Wanted: Everything! Fern is brand new and needs to meet people, so I am eager for both positive and negative cr.
CR Not Wanted: Nothing!
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
Colour Coded Corruption: Fern won't actually be affected for this, but his default colour is entirely green. If anyone would like to pick a fight with a green kid he'd likely fight back all on his own.
The Mother's Guild: He's a prime target for will-o-the-wisps, so he'll be following one to the festival. Not sure if he'll be comfortable enough to show any memories, but I'm down for him seeing anyone else's.
Bearly There: Bears are a bit of a recurring theme with Finn and Fern, so Fern is going full grassbear. He will be intensely frustrated by this and chances are high that he'll act out.

My plurk is diremuta for plotting there!

[kiseijuu]

Character Name: Shinichi Izumi
CR Wanted: I'm always down to explore current CR further, and also get to know new! Basically he's a shy and soft-hearted human nerd from Tokyo, Japan with a sentient alien hand who does everything for Science. They're an odd duo who are still learning how to work together (and how to work with other people in the process). I'm at eyestalks if you want to hit me up there!
CR Not Wanted: None!
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: This go-around I'm planning to have Shinichi take a bit of a backseat with majorly being involved, and instead volunteer him as a supportive type role for anyone else's things.

Color Coded Corruption: I'll offer him up for scorning and shunning. He generally wears green or yellow sweatervests, brown coats, and blue jeans... Feel free to hate everything about his Momma's Boy Fashion.

The Mother's Guild: Where he is at now is not a good place for exploring his own memories, even the good ones, but I'd enjoy letting him see someone else's memories. This could be sweet and help him learn more about them. Alternatively, I would be up for exploring a little bit of sadness (if anyone's happy memories involve their mother) just to start pushing him towards facing his situation (basically right before coming to Deerington, his mom was uhh... taken over by an alien and murdered him... He hasn't even remotely begun dealing with that, and can't even be sure it wasn't all a nightmare).

Bearly There: I won't be having him turn into a bear, but I would love for him to take care of someone. It could be someone he knows already or someone brand-new to him, but I think it'd be interesting if he looked after them / tried to help turn them back. He could even have them come stay at his house if that's something you'd be up for, so someone can be his Pet Bear for awhile... Let's hope he doesn't end up... eaten as they get worse.....

memories would be cute but also majima's going to be a panda, do any of those sound interesting?

Kaede | Elfen Lied

[long_live_the_queen]

Character Name: Kaede (Nyu has tapped out for now)
CR Wanted: "Everything" but she's been having a bad time mentally since she woke up post-Cure suddenly surrounded by doctors and is too tired to be grumpy all the time, so this is a good time for friendly characters to wiggle under her prickly armor plating. Alternately, Kaede's very good at the negative CR thing.
CR Not Wanted: error form not found
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

Color Coded: Kaede won't be directly affected by this, but lbr her fashion sense would probably offend people even if they didn't have the color crazies. Canonically she has a tendency to just wear clothes she finds in people's closets or whatever they had in their spare suitcase, including pajamas and ugly hats. It hasn't improved much in Deerington.

Mother's Guild: Definitely interested in this one, since it's an opportunity for Kaede's life to not suck for a few hours. She'll coasting on the like three actually happy memories she has, and after she's run through them a few times might ask for someone else's. Shared memory theaters? Shared memory theaters.

BEAR: I mean, do I still need a sales pitch. There's probably a picture of Kaede in the definition for grumpy bear.

She's going to be an Asiatic black bear that is pink. And still has her tiny stubby horns on its head, and most of her personality. She'll still have her moments, like thinking charging people is funny or trying to tear apart a car because it looks like there's cookies in it instead of, you know, asking. She won't be immediately aggressive unless people bother her sufficiently (or get between her and her dogs), but will be prone to lounging around in inconvenient places like sidewalks, public staircases, and that last parking spot at the grocery store.

Changing back to human will be trickier; Kaede's been listless and lost since she got here, but finding a sense of purpose again or making some kind of connection with people will help. This is a good time to be aggressively optimistic at her.

shared memory theater? I keep meaning to hit kaede up again :|a
