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!

Farrah

CHARACTER: Dorian Gray
CANON: The Confessions of Dorian Gray
PERSONALITY: Mercurial emotional manchild with immortality. Capricious on the best of days, he is charming and pleasant sometimes and cold, entitled, and condescending at other times. He is hedonistic and obsessed with aesthetics, and his manners can swing from 19th century gentleman to 21st century partier in about two seconds flat.
CURRENT STATUS: HE IS SUPER GREAT except when Lord Henry punctures his mood but he is JUST REALLY HAPPY TO BE IMMORTAL RIGHT NOW. He's not involved in anything except Iorveth's bad idea plans.
CR GOALS: I definitely want to deepen current CR. I'd also be delighted to get new CR! More friends are good, people to be rude or sarcastic with is good. Banterbuddies! I love banterbuddies. Possibly apologizing to people he has been a jerk to? ...No. No apologies are forthcoming, sorry.
SCENE-DOS: With Dorian, I tend to stay off network posts because, for some reason, I just have a really hard time tagging into them? I fail, I know. I am happy to switch between prose and actionspam, though! In general, I like anything, from relationship-building casual things to derpy threads to horrible violent terrible things.
SCENE-DON'TS: Nothing in particular? Experience everything, hell yeah.
YARD SALE: SHOP UNTIL YOU DROP he is buying so much you don't even know. Clothes! Musical instruments! Everything! Gotta occupy that storage space!
ADDITIONAL: It continues to be easier to find Dorian at night than during the day! He still sleeps through most days.

CHARACTER: Richard of Windor
CANON: Tales of Graces f is for friends who do stuff together
PERSONALITY: Benevolent King with trust issues who is really trusting anyway and embarrassingly earnest, like, 90% of the time. Loves friendship and peace and everything nice; will shank people ruthlessly for harming his friends. He really likes comic books and thinks superheroes are the greatest! Also one time he tried to destroy the world.
CURRENT STATUS: Richard is helping out at a swizard farm, continuing to involve himself with the hydroponics gardens, and also he gathered some data and gave himself a headache doing it.
CR GOALS: All the CR. People who dislike him! People who get along with him! People he can talk to about how to democratize a monarchy! I definitely want to deepen current CR and explore some more things in it.
SCENE-DOS: Richard actually uses the network because he thinks of it as inn request boards but for feelings. Other than that, I like network and face to face, and I enjoy slow cr building stuff as much as glorious drama and tragedy.
YARD SALE: Not going to lie, I'm pretty sure he's going clothes shopping hardcore.

Dorian if you don't kidnap Jehan and get him less offensive clothing you've failed XD
depicted: (et maintenant nous sommes tous seuls)

[personal profile] depicted 2013-07-19 05:07 pm (UTC)(link)
HE MIGHT FAIL! With Dorian, as he said to Jehan, he's at the stage where he can offend Dorian all he likes and Dorian just expects that it will be an eternal point of contention between them.
poeticverses: (Encouraging)

Provided there's no pink, right? XD

JEHAN NO

Enj is in a place where he's avoiding people who know him well and will be for a while but I'd love to get him some CR with others, and he and Richard got along really well the last time! Enj can quote Rousseau at him or something!
oathwalk: (varied and complex)

[personal profile] oathwalk 2013-07-19 05:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, quote the Enlightenment at him, he'll love it. Richard likes Enjolras a lot, and would be really ridiculously interested in everything Enjolras has to say about politics/republics/the state of man. Hm, if he's avoiding people, would we need to wait a bit to do something along these lines? (a random encounter, perhaps?)

[personal profile] solo_patria 2013-07-19 05:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh he's fine with people he doesn't KNOW right now. Just not his friends who are able to tell he looks like crap compared to how he usually does. So that should be fine!
oathwalk: (033)

[personal profile] oathwalk 2013-07-19 06:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, awesome then! Should we set up a log, then?
solo_patria: (Default)

[personal profile] solo_patria 2013-07-19 08:19 pm (UTC)(link)

That would be awesome!

oathwalk: (by the loss of a friend)

[personal profile] oathwalk 2013-07-19 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Okee doke! Do you want me to set one up or would you? (and if you want me to: prose or spam, and any particular setting in mind for the random counter?)
solo_patria: (Default)

[personal profile] solo_patria 2013-07-20 12:43 am (UTC)(link)

Would you mind doing so and I am good with either. He'll be wandering around so he can avoid people so anywhere outside of wood!

oathwalk: (Default)

[personal profile] oathwalk 2013-07-20 05:24 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, I will do! As soon as my internet stops doing an on-again-off-again dance.
oathwalk: (044)

[personal profile] oathwalk 2013-07-20 06:46 pm (UTC)(link)
and here you go! Tell me if that doesn't work!
browbeater: Ooooooh it's too real. (Hey baby how you doin'.)

[personal profile] browbeater 2013-07-19 02:53 pm (UTC)(link)
... So, Farrah, Farrah. Farraaaaaah.

We play in a game again. I think we should totally thread!!
oathwalk: (for indeed I am moved)

[personal profile] oathwalk 2013-07-19 05:39 pm (UTC)(link)
LET'S THREAD!!! Ummmm on the in-built CR from Richard already knows Korra! Also if he is out of the loop Richard just made a post that would totally put him as far in the loop as Richard himself is. ...For some reason I was thinking about work and then I realized Mako's working class compared to the royal here and I got "A WORKING CLASS HERO IS SOMETHING TO BEEEEEEE" stuck in my head.

That's not important, but I think you need to know it.

ASIDE FROM THAT Dorian just you know. Is around. Being a fabulous fop. The occasional barfight. Flying around on a magic carpet. You know. The things you do.

Richaaaaaaard. I can throw two superheroes at him! One (Billy) loves comic books, and the other is also named Richard, and they all seriously need CR because they just got into the game xD
oathwalk: (put friendship above all things)

[personal profile] oathwalk 2013-07-22 06:34 am (UTC)(link)
I'd love to tag with both of them! Hm I think I can pretty easily get Richard to respond to Billy's post because comics bro yes. Any thoughts on how to have Richard and Dick meet? (Confession it took me a second to remember that 'Dick' is from 'Richard')

[personal profile] bludhavenknight 2013-07-23 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
I saw that, that is good, all the comic bros! As for Dick and Richard, if he has a thread on the yard sale thing, I could have Dick bump into him there? Easy way to get CR.
oathwalk: (069)

[personal profile] oathwalk 2013-07-23 05:43 am (UTC)(link)
He has two threads, if either will work!
