October Plotting: It's Halloweeeeeeeeen

SETTING UPDATES
  • Mizuki made us a therapy office. Mizuki is in charge of this office. This is already reflected on the locations page and on the Grove map because technically it happened in September. Please see Mizuki for therapy, thank you. As a reminder, players are free to purchase one building per character for the continued expansion of the Grove, which can be anything you want, so long as you don’t mind cryptic plot clues attached. :)

  • The fog wall is now black. It will cause a highly painful burning sensation to the body when touched, regardless of if you have clothing in the way or not. Think of it like touching one of those fuzzy/spiky caterpillars where there’s no skin damage but everything hurts. In addition to this, touching the black fog will induce a high sense of dread/paranoia/doomsday feelings for half an hour after the contact breaks.

  • Zahliya is now contactable on the NPC Contact page. Thank you for playing with Wolfie’s dumb OC. Wolfie will continue to spew the dumbest plotlines you’ve ever seen at this game and you will all have to cope.

  • Moder has been eaten, thank you Mizuki.

  • As a reward for beating your first Large Game (the Volcano, in case that was unclear), the fog wall has pulled back slightly, north of the Inn! It is still black. Within it… are the burned remains of a town! Yaaaay! The town will be fully explorable in October, and we will have a relevant investigations toplevel there for anyone who wants to investigate it deeply.


  • PLOT UPDATES
  • It’s fuckin Halloween y’all, aka the best holiday, the only one that matters ever. We will have two coinciding plots: A Halloween Masquerade and a Pain Share.

  • MASQUERADE
  • At the far new north of the Grove, erected in the burned town a week after it is first discovered, is a circus tent. We are not actually going to the circus, but rather, we’re having a masquerade! The masquerade dances will begin every night at 10pm, and last until approximately 6am when the sun comes up, at which point the animated skeleton attendants will forcibly kick you out of the tent.

  • The dances will be frequented by ghosts that may look like people you knew in the past, dressed in Halloween masquerade attire. They will not be able to interact with player characters and will merely pass right through them, as if unaware they’re present. The skeletons, meanwhile, are literally just animated skeletons. They rattle when they walk and are not capable of speech, but will dance with you and serve you hors d'oeuvres. And also, again, kick you out if you try to stay past closing.

  • Halloween costumes can be regained free of charge (aka don’t go spend your bonus AC on these) as long as the outfits are non-magical, and I have to say this because one of you definitely has magical clothing somewhere. Yes, the outfit can include a prop, as long as that is also non-magical (and non-deadly!). I.e. if you’re dressing as the grim reaper you may have a scythe but the second that shit shoots magic or cuts a bitch it’s gotta go. I guess you could beat someone to death with a Spirit Halloween plastic scythe (not sponsored btw) but imagine the toll.

  • Masks are also free of charge. Player characters will have their pick of very cool, neat masks made of wood and other organic materials, ranging from simple to complex. Player’s choice on what these look like. Be careful, because donning these between 10pm-6am means you will be unable to remove them until the dance ends, regardless of where you are in the Grove.

  • PAIN SHARE
  • Mysterious marks akin to tattoos will show up on characters at the beginning of the month, starting at midnight on the 1st. These marks will match with at least one other person in the Grove, potentially more depending on player choices. These marks link characters physically and emotionally, but only for physical pain and negative emotions. This means your character will feel everything their partner(s) share, but it will be slightly diluted depending on how many people share the same mark. For example, if six people are sharing a mark and one of those six gets stabbed, the other five will feel the pain at 1/6th the intensity of the first character. Emotions, however, are shared full-force.

  • Characters can be bound to one person or multiple persons. They do not have to all be bound together unless you want to, i.e. Mizuki could be bound to both BB and Toge, but BB and Toge do not have to be bound to each other. Let me know if this doesn’t make sense.

  • These marks will persist until at least the end of the month. They could go longer, they could not. We will see how the forest feels about this. :)

  • Please thank Rubie for the suggestion for this part of the event!


  • OOC UPDATES
  • Wolfie is sorry about planning too many events last month :( Wolfie will do better (lying)

  • There will not be a subsequent mini-event this month. This is because a) Wolfie works in retail marketing and will actually die if one more thing is added to her plate and b) we have Forestquest/Addquest for those who signed up for it. Signups are closed, and we hope to use this as a test-drive for mod-led missions for future endeavours. Please Look Forward To It.

  • Clarification about AC was put on the AC page. This includes what we count as the AC period (from the 1st of the month to the last day of the month, unless otherwise specified), what we mean by “backtagged threads are allowed for AC”, and the check-in system (characters who just apped only have to check in, but please remember to post to your comment that you’re checking in).

      • The mod team checks AC on the last day of the month super late at night / the first day of the proceeding month. The mod team are also two (2) tired Americans, and we will flex to accommodate our not-American friends, i.e. if your timezone is 12 hours ahead of us it might look like you’re starting your AC thread in the prior month so just let us know if one of us hunts you down like “fix ur AC bro” and remind us that you’re not American. If anybody needs help with AC, let the mod team know.

  • We are trying to expand the bonus AC store with both magical & nonmagical items. We have a few ideas, but if you have something you’d like to see, feel free to ping the mods.


  • Please use the following form for plotting:

    Character:
    Status: Who is your character? What did they get up to last month and how is it impacting this month? Did they discover something? Are they harboring a clue? HMM
    Seeking: Any CR or plot thread you want to kickstart!
    Not Seeking: Anything you'd like to avoid.
    Anything Else: A permissions post, opt-in for a character-specific power or whatever else.
    Meme: you know you have one.

    Is the town like Centralia, PA where it’s just smoking forever or is it clear? Does it still smell burnt or just old? Is it overgrown?

    ”These marks link characters physically and emotionally, but only for physical pain and negative emotions.”


    Would phantom pain qualify under that umbrella? Like the kind of sensation that feels like it’s currently being inflicted, when in reality it’s just old wounds flaring up with bad memories.

    Hello, mods. Nue and I are coming for you soon.

    I have a question regarding the pain share: would it affect the Dead Level Rising aspect of the Handead characters at all? Like, I'm thinking that a Yuki being thrust into Gara's emotions would DLR himself out of that extreme emotion, but I'm interested in playing it however you want to dictate.

    Character: Mizuki
    Status: Sad about BB, but overall his cheery self. He's a therapist now. (No he isn't) (He's awful at this)
    Seeking:
    • Let me know if you want to pain share with him~! Mizuki is incredibly emotional, though, so... uh... at your discretion!!!!!
    • Mizuki could always use more friends. Real friends that he can talk to about stuff, I mean, because he feels like he doesn't have that beyond BB.
    • Come get y'alls therapy
    • Exploration buddies!!!
    • He's gonna try to find Moder at sssssooooooommmmeee point??? idk when I'll need to talk to the mods about this, but he'll need someone to go with.
    • He still hasn't opened his mom's photo album and I'm sad about this bc he doesn't want to do it alone sobs
    • uhhh??? Someone get Mizuki to spill lore secrets. Also backstory secrets. Mizuki has so many secrets and hasn't shared any of them how has this happened
    Not Seeking: Can't think of anything! Come at me, nerds.

    Character: Serial Designation N
    Status: He's not in the game yet but I'll be throwing him on the TDM
    Seeking: Legitimately anything, it'll be fun.
    Not Seeking: idk he'll be new so I guess hyper negative CR right out the gate isn't going to happen. Just come meet my dumb boy.
    Anything Else: N is a robot!!! He's a little dumb... but he's a good boy and he just wants to be useful. He is literally always optimistic and positive, regardless of what's happening, and literally has a file installed titled "Lovable Idiot". Take that as you will. His programming says he needs to help humans, but also he's a little corrupted, so, uh, seesaws hand. He's a good boy for the most part!!!! Anyway he's really cute.

    Add | Elsword

    [personal profile] harmacy 2023-09-29 03:41 pm (UTC)(link)
    Character: Add

    Status: closes my eyes....... Add has not been fine for MONTHS but i swear we are working on it. this month he is going to start dating Elsword. believe in them.

    relationship drama aside, this month he is also going on that expedition into the forest to look for Nene, so!!! He got his strat to breaking through the black fog from Zahliya, so he might ask some ppl to help make a ward so they can be protected.... he doesn't like lame magic stuff but he will do this for Nene sighs.

    Seeking: "Interesting people" he wants more test subjects let him steal some blood. Also anyone who has/is a robot or cool technology. Negative CR is 10/10 so feel free to call out his dumb ass, he will probably get mad about it he doesn't like being disliked.

    Anyone who is friends with Elsword is automatically on either Add's good side or his bad side and you will not know which until it's too late, sorry.

    Not Seeking: Romance :)

    Anything Else: My plate is very full this month so idk how much I'll be getting into the actual event stuff BUT we'll see how that goes!!!

    Haru | Digimon Survive

    [personal profile] kohenkyo 2023-09-29 04:22 pm (UTC)(link)
    Character: Haru

    Status: New app?? Maybe????? i swear i am putting him on the new TDM this month if nothing else i will inflict him on everyone until i run out of steam

    but yeah Haru is ????? a very normal human child, do not worry about it. I will probably continue being slightly cagey about spoilers even tho no one cares about this year-old game because he is kind of a large spoiler but rest assured there is NOTHING weird going on with this child and you should just ignore any funny business. If you want to find out more anyway feel free to check one of the old apps in this journal.

    spoiler stuff aside, tl;dr Haru is.... very quiet and stoic for a small child, only cares about his sister Miyuki, and finds most other people exhausting to deal with. Expect a lot of one-line blank-stare tags but this is 100% IC and you can call him weird for it. Despite looking like he's 8 or 9 he is a shockingly good survivalist so the first thing he does here will probably be fishing in the river with his bare hands dwbi he's normal

    Seeking: Well-meaning and responsible adults, gremlins. There is no inbetween. Non-human characters get special treatment. Furries DO interact ty

    Not Seeking: i can't think of anything i'd be against but like don't make it TOO weird,

    Anything Else: i want to app this month but add is a needy little bitch so i might wait until after forestquest/nene plot stuff wraps. we shall see.

    Character: Natsuno

    Status: Arrived like 3 weeks ago and already managed to die and go on a river adventure (still ongoing but he's already emotionally compromise). Still acts stoic as usual and focused on exploring/finding a way out so he wouldn't have to think about how sad he is.

    Seeking: Exploration buddies, bad decision buddies, people he can slowly befriend, people to share pain with (he's depressed and also regenerates and reckless I am so sorry)

    Not Seeking: Romance

    Anything Else: Nah

    Status: Closes my eyes... I have never seen this boy so turbulent in my life. Anyway, his plant infestation is getting worse, so now he has vines coming from his skin and wrapping around his arm like really cool jewellery. He will still try to keep this covered with bandages but it's looking grim... anyway his other arm is burn scarred up to fuck and back because he dunked it into lava. He's also habitually keeping this covered up with bandages. He has all the bandages in the Grove rn.

    He will stop being ~dramatic~ soon I promise (tentative) he will go back to fishing n stuff. He'll also probably try to clean stuff up... he will be a little ":(" while add is gone on quest but surely add will come back in one piece (i am looking Directly at lavvy)

    Seeking: For this event, Elsword is willing to go explore the burned town with people (I am a mod so obviously not gonna investigate it myself) (I made this event) but putting that out there he will Help (stand in the background while you do things). Also masquerades are fun, i'm too tired to figure out what he'll be for Halloween right now but rest assured it will be cute. I might fuck around and put him in a suit at some point. We'll see.

    Someone come painshare with him. I will take several people for this, he will get overstimulated by people's emotions. He doesn't normally have those, but I'm gonna say the Illuminous Phenomenon can't dilute them when they're someone else's he's feeling through a weird curse? SO. Anyway. Come make my son miserable. Also you will be miserable too because his plant arm is constantly hurting nowadays. Yaaaay :)

    Not Seeking: Romantic CR he's good thanks... we'll see if this changes past the revolving door of Add's turbulent personality but for right now, I'm good-

    Anything Else: I am pulling back from a lot of things right now because I am tired™ and not feeling well mentally™ please expect slower tags for a little while—

    GNOSIS i love him so much ive had 3 breakdowns about this man in 24 hours

    [personal profile] succiduous 2023-09-29 04:40 pm (UTC)(link)
    Status: He's fine™ he's opening up to people a little bit, we'd like to see more of that from him. Go king tell people that you feel things yaaaas. Anyway, he will have presumably hopefully have stolen regained SilverAsh's hunting hawk by October, I still have to wrap up the threads with that quest apologies. Anyway, Tenzin is a good bird.

    He's also working on an Arts unit for Fel right now to try to curb her magic a bit, and yes he's still acting like he's totally impassive to all of you. "You exist" energy unless you're Caoimhe who got his tragic backstory.

    Seeking: Someone talk science with my science bird... let's compare technologies. He can show you his cell phone, originium batteries last for fuckin ever so this thing is probably still on like 97% charge despite him being here for several months—

    Also you may share pain with him but he's very lowkey and subtle about things. He might not be as fun for this. He does however know ballroom dancing so if you wanna masquerade hmu I love this shit—

    Not Seeking: Romantic CR UNLESS one of you brings me a SilverAsh to ship with, and then we can talk— no but seriously this man is like 35 and tired why would you ever kiss him

    Anything Else: if you ever want me to have a full breakdown over the karlan trade crew i am available at literally any time, meet me in the discord for screaming—

    Nat | Toge Inumaki | Jujutsu Kaisen

    [personal profile] cursedwords 2023-09-29 04:59 pm (UTC)(link)
    Character: Toge Inumaki
    Status: He's alive. (also, it's his birthday this month :3)

    Seeking:

    * Toge got some lore information from Zahliya that he could share.
    * He's planning on walking through the black fog. You think pain is gonna stop him? So if anyone wants in on that and has a strong stomach...
    * Also pain share with him. He is the biggest liar, he smiles when he's sad all the time. Everything is fine but expect some physical pain too. His missing arm aches.
    * He's going to be going over the town with a fine toothed comb, with or without someone to help. He sees that kind of thing as his responsibility.
    * Gnosis has taught him a bit of sign language and he can probably say a few things that way. If that helps him, who knows. It'll help with Gnosis! He needs to practice his spelling so he can literally just say what he wants.

    Not Seeking: Can't think of anything, pass.

    Anything Else: It's not his birthday in game because he had that just before he arrived. It was great, he got a trip to Shibuya. (He doesn't celebrate his birthday anyway. He's a clan kid, he's had a terrible upbringing.)

    neckromancy: (Girl Dinner)

    Syn | Astarion

    [personal profile] neckromancy 2023-09-29 08:13 pm (UTC)(link)
    Character: Astarion

    Status: He's new! And hungry! Currently he's just been getting a lay of the land, mostly sticking to the inn (or the river) and getting a feel for everyone's personalities. Scoping out the best person to charm into protecting him

    Seeking: He's absolutely going to be hitting up the masquerade as many nights as he can, because he's the kind to enjoy the spectacle and opulence such events bring. That being said, he's probably going to end up biting off more than he can chew and spotting the ghosts of people he very much does not want to spot, so finding him loitering about outdoors is also fairly probable.

    I'm also opening him up for the pain share, pspsps come get your angst. Anyone pain bonded with him can expect to feel a gnawing, painful, all consuming hunger, as he is (spoiler) a vampire! Shocking, I know, he's so very good at hiding it. He hasn't properly fed in some time, so he's kinda goin through it on that front even if he's good at pretending like he isn't. In addition to hunger pangs, there may also be nights where he's woken up by the (unfortunately) familiar sensation of a ghostly knife slowly carving runes into his back. It's a phantom pain, but it's chronic. It's a trauma thing that flares up sometimes. Sorry.

    Not Seeking: Romance CR, for the moment! That being said, you're more than welcome to try, and he very much enjoys the playful banter that casual flirting brings, but he's not looking for anything serious or real if that makes sense. Tell him he's pretty so that he can preen and saunter about but don't expect to hold his hand.

    Anything Else?: I may be a biiit slow to tags on Thursdays + Fridays especially!

    felicity morais ♡ original

    [personal profile] amethystic 2023-09-29 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
    Character: Felicity Morais
    Status: Definitely not traumatized by falling to her death in lava and the guilt of Elsword sticking his whole-ass arm in to save her and also staying concious even after death, nope! She's "vibing", she'll insist, but she's been quieter and mostly kept to herself lately, especially as she's self-conscious as all hell about the burns that remain.
    Seeking: FREINDS!!! also someone please notice she a lying liar who lies and is actually deeply upset about the floor is lava. ... so uh she may not like the burnt town too much. she is available for investigations as well but even if i'm not the mod in charge of this event i will let other players take point for the most part

    felicity also has decision paralysis when it comes to halloween (the only thing she'll veto is a witch because shes' already one???) so cute fun halloween choosing would be neat even if she'll question the timing the whole way. is the masquerade a good idea? heavens no (paranoid) but she's here for a fun time not a long time

    as for pain share things, i would prefer to keep it on the smaller side- 1-3 people max- BUT pain share friends will get the exciting sensations of!!!!

    -crippling depression (shes a GOOD FUCKING LIAR. and also doesnt have her medication.)
    -phantom pains from the burns
    -hunger pains that never seem to go away
    -headaches and whatever else that comes from her connection to the ever-changing moon every night
    -random incidents like tripping or dropping something ouchies
    -... not much else though! despite how carefree she can seem, especially with her acrobatic nature, shes actually very careful and cautious, its just that shes also calculating and good at what she does




    also i do want kiss but i want ships to happen organically u_u

    Not Seeking: super neg cr, it aint my jam
    Anything Else: while felicity doesn't live in the inn, she tends to go over regularly to cook meals for the people who do! she will harass you for your dietary needs and preferences. also permissions and opt-in for fels bad luck aura and also magic pings

    BB / FGO

    [personal profile] devilishkouhai 2023-09-29 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
    Character: BB
    Status: Dead, will come back soon!
    Seeking: Plot heavy CR, investigating, lore/story sharing, and etc.
    Anything Else: Click Below
    Death
    BB died due to her self-sacrifice in wanting to give someone a wish she felt significantly related to. It's unimportant up to the fact that she is the reason why the Fog, is the way it is, now Black. If you some how figure out it's her she won't hide it, BB overall has been playing with topics and actively hiding things or toying around with the way people think. However, when she comes back she will have a harder time connecting with her Familiar/Servant self because a core piece of information/memory was taken from her.
    ◆ Until BB can fix her own data mainframe, she will be less AI and more Human.
    ◆ Unless she can find a way to significantly replace the energy she lost entirely, she will be suffering for a little while.

    Servant Stuff/Technology
    BB might be looking for a master it depends, I think what she is going to do is use this occasion to live in her human body and focus on building a substitute for what Chaldea had. This way she can automatically have some system do what Chaldea staff was doing for her.
    ◆ Potentially: making tiny robot(s) of herself (alter egos) but these will be nothing like her alter ego and lacking an AI. Im not sure still workshopping it
    ◆ Working on getting a network online, beware that she is a highly intelligent AI and we have a few individuals here who actively are powerful when it comes to technology adaptations! That said BB is notorious for hacking into things and being annoying about it. Using ~ her ~ network will grant her potential access - so be mindful of this if she ends up making it.
    ◆ She will be working on this in the building she asked to bring back. The school building is important to her lore/game haha.
    ◆ She will want to learn the technology from your worlds and talk about potentially bartering things. These could even be magic items.

    Plane stuff
    BB has a singularity or pocket dimension at her disposal that she can do w.e with. Its called Luluhawa. It is basically hawaii, but she took it over and merged all the islands together. I think currently she will be unable to go here or bring anyone here for a while, but if anyone wants to back log anything before her death and go there let me know. Or again, in the future.
    ◆ Going here means she will be able to gather all data about you, this includes your existence, memories, what you are, what you can do, etc. She can alter them inside the place but once you exit it is all retained back - unless you don't want it to be. In the same train of thought you can have memories from being there, or you can have them sealed away. Then opened up later in the game. Your choice of flavor.
    ◆ The timeline here does not affect the timeline in stixs. If you go in, you come back out the same exact moment you went in. Even if you spend a whole year within the pocket dimension lol.
    ◆ It has a loop system already intact and automatically loops every week.
    ◆ Usually the first time its a ~power flex~ to remind you she is more powerful than you - but also that she enjoys dragging ppl there to force the ability to know them. She is an ai information is yummy to her.
    ◆ I will always write if its something she wants to do, but you are always welcome to say no!
    General CR
    Looking for more CR that isn't related to current stuff going on. Would love to see more plot going on with other characters and would love to get that started if you are interested. Even if we just write/work on building CR. BB will be out for most of the month, but she will join towards the end at the masquerade.
    She will ask for this outfit for Halloween!
    ◆ painshare! i think it will be fun with BB she can endure any and all pain, so pain you feel and she will just kind of be like 'lmao this is nothing actually.' Maybe purposely walk into something that causes pain to make you feel it. Don't share with her unless you want a not fun time. She would gladly force pain share on others though.
    Actually what she might wanna do... pain share with you, and drag you to her luluhawa and do basically... Tests on tormenting you to feel how humans/mortals feel when they are tormented.
    ◆ Emotional pain stuff will be interesting, bc she's an AI. Im not sure how extensive the pain stuff goes, but BB has very dark thoughts quite a lot not sure if that suffices for emotional baggage and pain.



    If you need a little antagonist in your life, offers her. but also feel free to try to befriend her.

    QUINN | Olivia Haas | Fear & Hunger: Termina

    [personal profile] thephotosynthesis 2023-09-30 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
    Character: Olivia Haas, from hit semi-obscure horror game Fear & Hunger: Termina
    Status: None?? I haven't apped yet.
    Seeking: Friends! People who like plants. People who don't care about plants but are open to having a nerd ramble at them about botany. Maybe a love interest?? Time will tell.
    Not Seeking: Shrug
    Anything Else:
    Basic rundown! Olivia's a 20-year-old botanist who grew up in the shadow of her super perfect older sister. After escaping from their ultra-strict religious family, they remained on good terms up until Relia stopped writing for mysterious terrorism-related reasons. So, Olivia went to the nightmare murder city of Prehevil to find her and Went Through Some Shit. There were monsters, and mind labyrinths woven by the old gods, and madness-inducing moon radiation. To not spoil the ending too much, there was Hitler there, he tried to use the 1940s internet to try and create a manmade artificial god, and it got all End of Evangelion at the end.

    Basically Olivia is a cheerful hard-working girl who's been through The Horrors and refused to let them break her spirit. She uses a wheelchair because she had a stroke when she was younger and her parents tried to cure it through faith healing instead of taking her to a doctor. Despite her good will towards other people, she can and will kill to protect herself or her friends (and may have found doing so more thrilling than she would care to admit). Botany may mean making medicine from wild herbs, but it also means toxicology.

    TLDR: she's a cute girl... but watch out

    hello!! I just wanted to say I am loving her so much already re: our TDM thread, I'm crying... she is very cute and I'm glad she has a secret gremlin side.

    Gnosis is a scientist more with technology but he tends to favour fellow scientists, I think they could get along somewhere... he is also secretly (not so secretly) a gremlin and was raised in a super religious country, so some relatability there. They can bond and also do science together probably—

    [personal profile] shurajodo 2023-10-01 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
    Character: Gara Ukai
    Status: gara is new! i plan on a catch-all with him pretty soon. i am bringing along friends with castmates for him (yuki minano [personal profile] laststoryteller & genjiro chibana [personal profile] eeeeeto) too, but for gara in particular:
    💀 he's not doing well; the past is painful for gara, and what has he been reminded of at every turn in his threads so far? that pain. yeah. we're having fun.
    💀 he wants to SING. he's very good at singing and he actually physically needs it. or else.
    💀 he DLRs very easily! what does that mean? dead level rising! as a handead, his emotions get very out of whack very fast, to the point that he's screaming or laughing or violent at the drop of a hat. so this is likely for him; yuki can mysteriously calm him down pretty easily, but yuki isn't always present. if you're okay with gara being volatile and/or yuki showing up to reel him in, lmk! my friend jude is apping soon and would be happy to have yuki meddle.

    Seeking:
    💀 fellow performers/singers.
    💀 piercing/tattoo canvases and people to talk shop with him in that regard.
    💀 fellow undead? i don't think there are any around, but ...
    💀 gara is also not suuuuper romantic so shipping is weird with him; i like shipping with gara but he's 1.) really only got eyes for yuki 2.) doesn't think people could ever want him in that way. that being said, i still will ship with chemistry. :)

    💀 masquerade: LET'S PARTY PLEASE LET'S DANCE AND SING AND BITE EACH OTHER
    💀 pain share: oh god lmfao are you ready for that ... gara and yuki and gen are going to be linked (in what config, we haven't figured out yet) but i'm game to pile more on my little zombie blorbo.

    Not Seeking:
    💀 negative CR just for the sake of negative CR.

    Anything Else: i can't think of anything? :U feel free to add me on plurk [plurk.com profile] vandalisto or hmu on the discord server!
