Hey everyone!
I'll be gone this weekend, from Thursday till Monday, because I'll be in New York, Occupying: Barricade. That is to say, New York Comic Con!
If you're going to be there, let me know! I'd love to randomly yell "Tushu?!" at people.

I'll have internet, but IDK how much I'll be online, because there's so many exciting things to do when you're dressed up and surrounded by geeks.

I'll be back on Monday. Thanks!
xoxo
Shea

TEST DRIVE MEME - TU SHANSHU EDITION!


Itching to try out writing a character? Then rev up your engines, grab your accounts, and slam your way into this meme! Here is a venue for you to try out whatever character there might be tickling your fancy, from fandom to OC, for as few as one and as many as MANY. Seriously, there's no limit.

How do you partake in this fantastic congregation of character testing? Why, by following these simple steps:
  1. Comment with the journal of a character you want to test; put their name and canon in the subject line for added sparkles.
  2. Tag around with everyone!
  3. Profit like you live on a the back of a turtle!
  4. Maybe even reserve so you CAN live on the back of a turtle!
But wait, there's more! For the low, low price of $9,999.99, you can even use one of our handy prompts when you tag someone. You could even pick one with a Random Number Generator to help decide which prompt to go with!
  1. A Chance Meeting at the Turtle's Head.
    Remember, being here causes a great sense of-- well, shall we say inner peace.
  2. Haggling Over Something in the Marketplace!
    Maybe someone else saw the exact same shiny thing you did at the exact same moment! However shall this be resolved? Remember: blood is extremely hard to scrub off of turtleshell!
  3. Have Met Before? Because I Could've Sworn I've Seen You In My Dreams.
    Have you wandered into the realm of Dreaming via an archway in Keeliai? Here, everything is shaped to your character's individual mind. Dreams can be shared between characters and will result in a meshing of minds. These dreams can be positive or negative, depending on your character.
  4. Will You Be Mine(d)?
    Exploring the turtleside may lead into old, abandoned mines with very old relics to be unearthed beneath the earth. Erm, shell. But be careful! Aggressive, rodent-like creatures are known to hide deep in these mines and they fear only one thing: The swan-lizard-like creatures known as swizards.
  5. Taking A Stroll in Sinbrilee
    Tu Vishan recently stopped at the final resting place of his sister turtle and maybe your character was there to wander about the lost city of Sinbrilee? It's an elegant place, and one can tell the city was built with care, despite the wear and tear it has suffered at the bottom of the ocean, and it carries a hint of Greco-Roman architecture.
  6. WILDCARD!
    Go nuts. Suddenly your character is fighting dragons! Good God, they've found the Millennium Falcon drifting in the ocean! Do you really feel the need to polish every paving stone in the Earth Sector? Please note, Wildcard options are also what you can choose to do if you aren't yet comfortable in the Tu Shanshu setting and would prefer a more 'dear-mun' esque experience. Please specify in your post!

I've taken some time to consider my schedule, and I'm afraid it's time for Kara to go home. I've had a great time playing here, and I'd rather scoop her out of the game now while she's happy and has a decent story with a nice ending than not have the time or the energy to keep up and drop her later when I've run out of ideas.

If anyone would like to workout things to handwave, please let me know. As of now, Kara is no longer on the island. I'll be answering my tags now, but you're all welcome to drop them whenever you like.

Really truly, thank you for an excellent time, turtle-dudes.

As I will be at leaving for the airport directly from work tomorrow and heading up to beautiful Hamilton, Ontario, I won't be around much until Tuesday.

I'll be around sporadically (I mean sporadically for me) for tags and on Plurk if you need me. Emails, PMs to this journal, and PPs will be the best way to reach me. Have a lovely five days everyone, and Happy Thanksgiving to those that will be pigging out with me in spirit on Monday.

OKAY I've gotten a bit more used to my job now, so I'm going to pull Shayera off of hiatus and start regularly tagging things again. and finishing my backtags, yes.
