March OOC intro!

[jigokumods]

MAIN NAVIGATION

Welcome Lost Souls! And also, welcome to this round's group of new players!

Firstly, the game officially opens (as in IC posting is allowed) on March 5th. What's on the plate for this month? Well there's the Substories for this month you can get started on, and the overall mood of the city is that everyone is preparing for this year's Night Parade, a major event meant to foster a unity within the community and promote (relative) peace between the various factions!

Unfortunately, tensions are very high with the new Lost Souls coming in, and while on the surface the Factions seem to be working together to make the parade success, internally each of them believes the other is plotting for a power grab at the event.

What's gonna happen? Stay tuned and find out...

Player Name: Agatha! You can call me Eggie or Aggie if you like, though!
Contact: I'm over on plurk @ hagclub, and you're welcome to add me. Otherwise, PM is your best bet.
Pronouns: I'm generally okay with whatever, but I do prefer she/her or they/them! You can use whatever comes more naturally to you.
Tell us about yourself: Helloooo!! I'm Eggie, I collect mugs and cannot start my morning without a matcha latte. My timezone is CST, and I work in a metaphysical shop from Tuesday through Saturday. I tag at all hours of the day, but usually before work and after dinner. I default to brackets but I'm more than happy to swap styles to match! In addition to Final Fantasy, I love Drakennier, Metal Gear, Bayonetta, The Legend of Zelda and a few other things. Also, I play Identity V, Nier Reincarnation and Shining Nikki! I just read Disco Elysium for the first time and cannot shut up about how much I love it so fair warning. ALSO Sorry in advance for any and all Jerma985 memes

Character Name: Aerith Gainsborough
Canon: Final Fantasy VII (I'm working with Remake canon!)
Faction: Tamamo
Brief Rundown: I have a first impressions at the bottom of my permissions post for Aerith, if you would like something more in depth. The general impression, however, is a spirited woman who cares for others and is more than willing to jump into action for someone else's benefit. Your immediate impression of Aerith is likely to be that she can be a nuisance, but she's never too friendly unless she has reason to be. She's exceedingly charming and sweet, she just has a bite to her. In Jigokucho, she can't even hear the planet, and adjusting to her normie status will probably have her feeling a little unbalanced for a bit.

Initial Ideas: Aerith is a go-getter and not one to stay in place, so she'll be working once setting aside her immediate shock. Substories Doms Wanted! and Welcome to the Night Parade are on my radar, the latter more than the former. I don't think she would be good at Doms Wanted! I just think she would be funny. She's a natural healer so any interaction with High Definition will be of the caretaking variety. She may walk up to the clinic and bite someone if she becomes concerned about another person enough actually lmao... oops... should probably ask about that. Anyway. Look At This Sweet Jacket could be fun, too! I want to do all the things.

Her first long-term goal will be trying to start some kind of floristry business in the future when she can. She already misses her flowers and the certainty of the church.

I would love to play Aerith against people she can big sister at, people who can relate to her either from her childhood (Aerith was used as a live experiment by Shinra so... yeah...), or as Jesus Christ (Team Hero) or perhaps you are Jesus Christ (Team Dark)... If you need someone to drag your character into a quest of some kind, or help them get adjusted to normalcy in some way, she's very good at that.

Anything else:

hello, eggie! my name's archer and i'm really enjoying our thread with six and aerith together. 🥺 i hope they can be good friends since six finds her presence v. healing already.

[everblooms]

archer it is SO nice to meet you and finally tell you that six was somehow the sixth tag in aerith's inbox. i was delighted.

i'm canonblind but i really love him and can't wait for more cr with these two... i would be delighted to hit back our thread today if you're up for continuing tdm stuff after acceptance hehe!! (❁´◡`❁)

[wray]

the sixth tag... it was fate! that's so cute though. the potential cr with them is gonna be rly good, i can feel it.

to be fair i'm also mostly canonblind since i've never played ff7 so the most i know is via rp osmosis but!! i'm up for continuing for sure, and mayhaps planning smth out for the intro log coming up too. 👀 if you don't plan on tl'ing i can offer a starter or smth once we know prompts.

[nya]

hello!! i'm cain and you don't know me but i know you... sort of... i see your bf gush about how cute you are on my twt tl sometimes so!! one degree of separation... but since you're here and i'm here i wanted to pop in and say hi!! i wanna tag aerith definitely... reaches... they'll def get along, as two small menaces

also i forgot to pick an icon on my post too and this just reminded me... goes to fix it

[everblooms]

hi cain! it's so nice to meet you and have a face to the name! sorta. i can picture nia now. she seems like someone aerith would get along with so well and they're in the same clan so i can't wait to see how much chaos they can bring in together. i'm sure it will be a normal amount (¬‿¬)

[nya]

likewise!! OH i just realized they're both in tamamo... excellent... more opportunities to cause mischief :3c

[sunborne]

Hello! I'm such a softie for when it comes to Aerith so I would love for a chance for Day to meet her. He has a big soft spot/enthusiastic interest for flowers thanks to his background and would! Try his best to help her get a florist/flower business up-and-running somehow. Definitely would like to see them team up and do tasks together like in Welcome to the Night Parade, perhaps?

[everblooms]

oh gosh i actually REALLY love the whole blurb you put up for day and find him so charming, i would adore that. he sounds like her kind of bestie!! ( *︾▽︾)

[medicative]

the fact that you didn't put a jerma meme in your comment means you gotta drop and reapp sorry

[everblooms]

hey man can you check this link out real quick

[kikuichi]

Hello, hello! Man, I love Aerith, although I'm out of touch with FF7 compilation in ages.

I'm Doji and I'm willing to keep tossing Norimune at Aerith, if you'll have him.

[everblooms]

remake dragged me back into hell unfortunately. down there in the depths of the twitter replies with reply guys but the game itself was fantastic! if you have any fondness for it, i definitely recommend at least checking out the new arrangements. they're so beautiful haha

it's nice to meet you, doji!! (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ) i am completely canon blind but nori looks super interesting and i would love to see where cr takes them!

[camyoflage]

He~llo!

These two were cute on the TDM, so if Aerith ever needs a helping hand from the Sutoku Alliance, Ethan will probably be around. He both a) probably needs some big-siblinging himself but b) also tries to big brother people despite only having his street smarts.

[everblooms]

oh gosh hello! i'm so glad you got in! i was curious if you might want to continue or thread or plan for a new one, i'm completely canon blind but i kind of love this guy... i went on a wiki dive and between that and our thread, i am so charmed.

aerith is sort of similar in many regards, they have so many in common φ(゜▽゜*)♪ she's so sisterly towards people, it's natural for her, but i'd adore her being challenged there because she's not used to it at all. it sounds like loads of fun!!!

[fuckinghysterical]

Hello, so I kind of already accidentally added you on Plurk (I'm so sorry if I seemed like the eagerest beaver ever, my laptop was really just that sensitive, I guess), but I'd love to get CR if you're up for it!

I've got a girl here that was more or less manipulated into becoming a weapon for a while (so she could at least tangibly relate to the whole experiment thing) and really could use a big sister type to ease her into normalcy again. Or, y'know, they can just be Tamamo bros, whatever works out!

[everblooms]

oh gosh don't even worry about it, i've been like that too! i would be super down for cr, i loved all the beauties in mgs4 actually!

both of these options sound great to me; aerith tends to be protective of people she feels need it or deserve it, and i think once she gets to understanding laughing beauty's backstory, she'll be on the level with her. 👀 it's not been delved into too much what aerith experienced with shinra, but i'm sure she can relate, honestly lmao

[camerastraps]

reaches for

ur aerith is adorable pls i would love to continue their cr in game!!

[everblooms]

i am so so happy you got in i loved our thread!!! i adore your prompto 🙏🙏 lets go for it, please! I'd be so happy to!!!

[cutcloud]

Eyoo hi there! I'm Sou and I've got this guy who's a fellow Tamamo that Aerith can definitely big sister at. He's hilariously out of his element in Tamamo so he's gonna stick out like a sore thumb.

His name's Chongyun which means "layers of clouds" so like. If she can't have real Cloud here's a baby knockoff version in the meanwhile

[everblooms]

hi sou! it's so nice to meet you!! ❤ sounds like perfect material for teasing for aerith!

that's... so cute actually, i would love for her to find that out icly at some point ╰(*°▽°*)╯

[sefirot]

sup flower girl. I'm sure these two will have lots of run ins.

[everblooms]

omg yes hello!!! how do you feel? any better?

i'm so excited, i spent a chunk of my day f5ing the app page! they definitely will, if i have any say in it. (¬‿¬)

[taintedpeony]

Hello, fellow Tamamo! Jin Guangyao is actively going around meeting others in his faction and would be happy to help with the parade if that is something that interests you. He is also a caretaker type and would love to meet others who know that language.

[everblooms]

jin looks so interesting and fun, i would love for these two to meet! aerith could always do with another caretaker around, she's a little on the rambunctious side and needs a reality check from time to time herself, too. i'm always up for small talk-y decoration threads, too, so that sounds lovely to my ears! ❤
