Event | Yard Sale | BONUS LEVEL: CR With Me!
Evening, turtle-ites! Alex here with a twofold post -- the Yard Sale OOC announcement combined with the game's CR meme! We've put them together to reduce clutter in the OOC comm and give one central space in which to plot shenanigans. We'll kick it off with the event summary, then head straight into the meme fun. 8D
Yard Sale
With the rationing being lifted the morning of July 20th, kedan all over Keeliai are going to take to the streets and rejoice in a very unique way. Festival? Nah! Banquet? Been there, done that! City-wide yard sale? OMG YES. This event will run from July 21st - 27th.
What does this mean?
This means that the streets of Keeliai shall become flooded with hastily built stalls, swifly lain carpets, and tables that have been ported outside for the sake of laying out wares that have been long hoarded during the stingiest days of the rationing. Foreigners and kedan alike are encouraged to both sell anything that tickles their fancy as well as peruse the wide varieties of, well, everything on offer. These are the fruits from months of carefully setting aside bits, pieces, and bobs for a rainy day -- only they've brought them out for this happy moment!
And that's it. Really. It's the most epic sidewalk sale that Keeliai has ever seen! A party-style log will be posted on Sunday to kick things off, but first...
What about the darn Tribbles?!
The Tribblepidemic continues throughout the event, with enterprising kedan finding new and inventive uses for the adorable menaces.And Lex fridges a bunch to serve as Tribbletonite against the Supes. They'll still be everywhere, but characters may see them being put to new and unique applications. What kinds of applications? Well... We're taking suggestions! Do you have a way that you'd love to see Tribbles used? Then feel free to make suggestions in the Tribble subheader! (In this post, just below the questions subheader.)
And that's the gist of it! The event is meant to be a winddown after the recent stresses for the characters and a great way for Foreigners to sell off any assets -- or buy some along the way. Feel free to ask any questions that you may have within the subheader provided for in the comments.
Meanwhile, it's time for...
CR With Me Meme | July 2013
Hello, chelonauts! The CR With Me meme is back and ready for action!
When it comes to our CR meme, we do ask that you be as specific as you can! 'Our characters should team up to moon Eshai' is going to help establish an idea of what sort of CR you're looking for better than 'omg tag me.'
We're still using the modified form, including the two sections titled "Current Status" for a summary of what your character's been up to and "CR Goals" for the plotting and discussion of gaps in your character's CR spectrum that you would like to fill! There is also a section specific to the plotting of shenanigans during the upcoming event! (Details of which are available above.)
CR With Me Form:
The CR forms can be posted as top level comments to the post, so don't worry about needing a subheader to post them under. Have at thee, my lovelies!

Re: QUESTIONS
Will there be books that Charles could pick up that might give some insight into either the history of the kedan or maybe be stories he could analysis to pick up ideas about kedan society? Maybe even something loosely Malicant related?
Also it can Charles do some discreet kedan brain creeping? If yes, what sorts of things would he pick up from them? Strong thoughts, emotions, concerns, etc?
no subject
Many of the kedan will be clearing out their old shelves, but he is most likely to find poetry, old romances, and a few collections of adventure fiction written by some of the more eccentric kedan over the years. There may be a few histories of the kedan in Keeliai, but no literature regarding the pre-Tu Vishan lifestyle of the kedan will be available. Materials regarding Malicant will be absent as it's not a widely known presence and those that do know it fear it too much to write anything down.
Brain Creeping
The kedan are going to be happy that the rationing is gone and that they can clear out their homes. There will be an undercurrent of exasperation for the tribbles -- countered frequently by the tribbles pacifying nature.

Follow-up!
When I was in college and majored in English, I specifically studied and wrote many of my papers around the concept of classic fiction as social commentary (such as Shakespeare and the Tudor era, early American literature, Twain, Salinger, etc). Is is permissible for Charles to study some of these books in that manner and picking up on the fact that there is no written Malicant references?
