Crack Loss time

[rank1killer.livejournal.com]

Because crack is awesome. Icon and title should say all.

Pedobears, I'm coming for you.

-Edit-

A good suggestion from a better friend prompted me to provide a bit more explanation.

Travis isn't actually changing physically. He's going to have all the personality of Chris Hansen though. And as for the icon of Hansen? That's stickin around cause I find it so fucking hilarious.

update to the wiki

[paradisamods]

So we are still adding pages and updating things in the Paradisa Wiki! Here is a list of things that we've updated/added in over the past month!

* Resident Owned Businesses - In the City Royale - With a page for each business to fill out as they want!

* The Paradisa Bachelor Auction - Now it serves as a permanent reminder of the event! (WIP)

* Activity & Hiatuses - As mentioned at the last activity check, we've updated the policies here as well.

* Wish Granting - We've updated the Large Vehicles Significant Items to require mod permission and be allowed on Special Occasions and now also at the end of a world change plot.

* Temporary Losses - Back in April someone posed a question to us in the Questions Post and now our answer is reflected in the Wiki as well. We've defined that even while on a Temporary Loss you should still be playing the character that you have been approved to play in some way, shape, or form. They need to be present to be considered a resident, and while swapping aspects of your character out is a perfectly acceptable loss, we do require that at least one aspect of your character remains.


If anyone ever has any questions regarding policies or if something is acceptable, please don't hesitate to IM any of us, or send us a PM to the mod account. We do all discuss these policies together before we come to an agreement, so just be patient if we take a few days to get back to you. The August Activity Check is underway, and the HMD will be posted up soon as well.

A two-day plot about all the things they don't tell you.

September 11th-12th

The castle is upset, and the night of September 10th, you can just feel it in the air. It’s a certain intensity, a yearning to do something and reach out to people, and something is just calling out to the residents, looking for attention. It feels needy, desperate.

It wants something, and no one can tell what.

And when it doesn’t get what it’s looking for... in retaliation, at midnight, the castle expends some energy to pull memories from people’s heads. A lot of them.

So much so that everyone* is going to suffer from amnesia about their lives. All they can remember is that they are in Paradisa, and their own name.

The castle will steal memories, from faces to names to events to places to times, and turn them into photographs and news articles and name tags and calendar pages and papers and comics and drawings and sounds and movies, and plaster them all over the walls, all over the castle, in no particular order. Everything is on display for everyone else.

Maybe your baby pictures are in the kitchen. Maybe there’s a DVD of your college graduation in one of the towers. Maybe a eulogy is pinned to the front doors, or a poster of the most incredible moment of your life. Maybe there’s a sound recording playing in someone else’s bathroom of your thirteenth birthday. Maybe a television set up in the stairs is playing the stormy night where your life changed.

All, of course, on public display.

Everything has a small label with the owner’s name on it, but with hundreds of thousands of things scattered everywhere, you may have to ask around, or maybe find weird things of other people’s, first. Whose first date was in a charming little Chinese buffet? Who crashed their car into the neighbour’s picket fence and prized magnolias? Who first made love on the floor during a storm? Who was murdered and reported about in the local newspaper?

It’s interesting to see pieces of other people’s lives. Things you’ve heard, things you’ve known, things you never saw coming. Things you wish they’d told you. Sad things. Funny things. Honest things.

Who are you? Where did you come from? No one knows themselves, but maybe everyone can find themselves and others in the mess.




Of course, at the end of the forty-eight hours, all memories return, but the evidence remains. What to do with it?

On Sunday night, residents can have a huge bonfire on the lawn to destroy all the things people don’t want a physical record of. It’s so bittersweet, to see your memories go up in flames, but who needs them when they’re safe in your head?

You can tuck things into your pockets, and hide them in your closet, or stash them away so you can keep them, if you’d like.



*Participation: It IS opt-in, because we understand juggling a lot of characters can be crazy during plots like this, but please, please, join in. It’s more fun if everyone’s going around with this.
Goals: New CR, and canon exposure

Planning Thread

 

Guidelines:

• Post links to pictures, screencaps, videos, scans, manga/comic pages, articles, writing, sound clips, game clips, logs, threads, etc to serve as “memories” people can find. Anything you post will be taken as-is as the memory.

• Memories of things that happened to characters in Paradisa are fair game as well.

• Organize who finds what, and any reactions and the like here.

• Characters have no memories of their CR, therefore, there should be no bias towards who they gravitate to, other than people who actually appear in their memories.

• Logically, memories can only be from BEFORE the character’s canon point, and of things they were present for.

• If you don’t want a particular memory revealed to the public, assume it was placed in some place where no one would find it/it would be overlooked (the character’s room, the roof of a random tower, etc) or was just lost in the shuffle. There are a LOT of memories here; it would take years to comb through them all.

• If posting memories that have significant or embarrassing revelations about other people’s characters, clear it with those muns BEFORE posting.

• Memories that pertain to character’s permanent losses are fair game until the plot’s over; those will disappear at the end of the plot, regardless of circumstances.

Hey guys!

Just letting you all know that Daily will be on hiatus for about two weeks! She said she'll try to comment around in that time, but if she manages to, it'll probably be sporadic at best.

This affects the following:

Cheza sleepsongs
Mochizuki Kotarou progeny

End of Loss; Sephiroth's Damage

[firsttsurugi.livejournal.com]

Due to a misunderstanding with the moderators, I was advised to alter my loss to have more of Cloud resembled in this event. Cloud's mind was intact during the entire story, trapped within Sephiroth's will, body, and power. It was a bit of a twist that I took too far. Oh well! It happens.

That being said though? I'm not altering the loss, but ending it altogether. Having Sephiroth!Cloud change mid-loss but still be under the loss makes less sense then it suddenly ending. Sorry for those that might have wanted more time with him or a fight or some psychological games. We'll get a real Sephiroth one day.

Cloud's going to wake up realizing that he's back to normal. It's simple as that; he'll deal with the mental impact this loss had on him later. But enough about me. Let's talk about you guys! I need to tally what Sephiroth!Cloud's done during this loss.

- Mentally break Lenalee with mindgames over how she had broken Cloud's fighting spirit when he met his own limits; coupled with her own dark past as he struck nerves. Epic debut of Cloud's loss.

- Mindgames with Euphemia, and Caspian if he shows. Still going, but I gotta cut this loss short anyway.

- Scare the crap out of everyone with his prescense.

- Reno concluding that killing Sephiroth even at the cost of Cloud's life was in order.

- A fateful confrontation with Aerith where he revealed that if he died, Cloud died as well, this being his loss and all. His fate was in her hands, he basically said.

- An inconclusive encounter with Bruce Wayne. Not sure if mindgames or a fight has happened but obviously no injuries on either end even if there was a fight of sorts.

- Sephiroth was tricked by Ino since she'll avoid him until the loss ended. Lmao, nice one, girl.

- Lenalee gave a touching speech, one that Cloud could hear where he was trapped within Sephiroth's will to control him. She agreed with Sephiroth that Cloud could be fragile and at times lost without others, so she would guide him as a friend in need. If he were lost, she would find him again. Metaphorical and literal exchanges were had. This would have lead up to a rather climactic ending to the loss were I not dropping this.

ALRIGHT! That's about it. Anything else I happened to miss, guys? I say I didn't do too bad for the short run I had. I had fun with this. Hope you guys did too. ♥ I'll try to think of something even better next time I do a loss.

Clandon out!
