Ahh, console video games (or vidcons as I call them). the ultimate medium of expression, able to convey any emotion ranging from hatred to love, loyalty to fear, all in front of our eyes. Ah, and with lovingly crafted art, music, and the ability to control the action, vidcons are the ultimate combination of the high arts. While I tend to play the stoic, I will be the first to admit that vidcons haven driven me to cry, to scream and shout, to feel actual hate; such is the power of this force beyond our wildest reckoning. And here I am, before you, to temp your tongues with the taint of such a tantalizing topic.
And the Japanese, the true geniuses behind the world of video games. Pah, I throw my scorn upon such incompetents of the West who would mock the true art of the Japanese with 'games' such as Baldur's Gate and Madden. Perhaps it is that the West is not as intelligent as the East, but this is a matter for another day. Japan has given us such masterpieces as the Final Fantasy series, Star Ocean, Wild Arms, and of course, Arc the Lad. Yes, some of the finest vidcons in the world were created by Japanese. I come to you today to ask you in all earnesty, what is your favorite vidcon? I will reveal mine after the grand debate has illustriously begun, but not before the first poster falls victim to my plot of discussion.
In other words, this is a thread on an imaginary forum our avatars frequent. The topic can fluctuate, and its mostly just general discussion.

Tama May Cry 4: Order of the Toons
Yo! I noticed somethin' different with the blue text... what happened?
I don't know, maybe it's an April Fool's trick on the site.
Maybe they did that to tell the difference between blue text and links to the site.
That's silly, the blue text is darker and they didn't change red to be different from red links.
Oh well, at least they didn't mess with my pink!
The wether is so weird today, it's like winter and spring are having a fight.
It's like they're playing us for fools too wouldn't you say?
I do certainly hope it gets better soon.
It's like that episode, Spring for Strawberry Shortcake!
Yahoo, my birthday just passed a couple days ago! I still have lots of candy and sweets to share, does anyone want some? It's no prank from me!

Oh, happy late birthday! Mind if I send you a present?

Alright, this one's coming in via air drop, hopefully somewhere close to you.
It's a Rubik's Cube with LED panels for stickers, along with a solar charging station. The cube has plenty of fun software on it besides standard Rubik's Cube mode.

Hey, something is different with my blue text!
But it doesn’t effect mine. Strange…
I think we’re all feeling blue, what with Rhynia ending and all that.
About that, I didn’t expect an anime ending to it! Either it was an April Fools joke, or it’s the creators of Rhynia ending it with a bang.
Well I coldn’t care less. I didn’t even snowtice the post saying it ended. I think it was actually rather ice to get a pyrophilic planet out of here.
First off, how dare you? Second, it’s not pyrophilic, it’s mediophilic, as in “likes medium temperatures”.
You’re a waste of spaceship, and Jupiter take those statements towards little old Rhynia back!
If truth bee told, I honestly hive no idea why I’m making all these puns! It’s just getting ranunculus at this point. It’s simply buzzare. It’s bugging me to no end! I’ll just end this tail and beak around the corner for pun-stoppers.
Why can’t someone throw a projec-tail at him to shut him up? Sorry for the fowl language, but it haddock to be done.
I thought I wasn’t psy-cat-ic anymore, but fur-ns out I was wrong! You have cat to be kidding me…
Looks like everyone’s in the pun-making mood today-hey, who stole the magnolias? Those were my prized flowers, and someone had the audacity to just steal them? No warning at all? Seriously?!

Now, my Sensei’s story of the beginning of the Lustrous: The planet has been visited six times by meteors. Six times it was broken, and it gave birth to six new moons, leaving it an emaciated shadow of its former self. When there was nothing left of the land but a single beach, all life fled to the ocean, and on that beach, life suited to the sparse environment appeared. They were eaten by tiny creatures on the ocean's floor, turned into inanimate objects. Some creatures who had flourished when the Moon was still one were too slow in their escape and sunk into the seas, crystallized over the ages, and again, they were thrown back up upon the beach.

What's this? A forum where people from all over many different planes of existence can interact? Well, how can I say no?
Allow me to introduce myself to this new frontier! All of you shall bear witness to the one and only NIA! VON! GORMOTT! Mostly known as Nia, and often addressed as... THE NIANATOR! Driver of the legendary Aegis themselves! Wielder of the Infernal Finger of Rotbart and the Seraphic Starscourge! Hero of Alrest! Bane of Torna! But I'm not alone! Introduce yourselves, PYRA VON AEGIS, OMEN OF RETRIBUTION, AND MYTHRA VON AEGIS, HARBINGER OF JUDGEMENT!

Hello! Pyra is happy to see friends! Wish to learn all sorts of things about other worlds.

Good thing I stopped Shellhead before he did anything worse. I was about a step away from kicking his arse.
I wished it would be just him. Pandoria copying me I can understand, since she's his Blade. Why the hell they roped Tora into copying Pyra is beyond me.
They said they were sorry for trying to impersonate us. At least we told them to not do that again, even as a prank.
If it was Poppi instead of Tora, then there'll be hell to pay.
Agreed.

No idea, blame the wonky web engineering of TV Tropes. There could be new people logging into your account at any time and write posts as you.
Hullo, what's this, why am I writing in someone else's message, and does anyone need some resources?
...Hey, are you a volunteer for the DSP program by any chance?
Uhhh... yes, why?
Once you're done with your current sphere, can you fly over to Alrescha-464 C? I've got a lot to tell you, unless you've heard it already on the news. And bring lots of automation components!
Aight, see you in a month or so? Also, can't I just send the components over to you directly via ILS?
You can, but the planet is over 500 pc
away from Earth, so it'll be one hell of a shipment. Also, you need those components yourself, don't you?
No, not really, I can just handcraft them, and have an assembly line automatically produce and send resources over. It's not like crafting 300 belts takes that long.
You're planning to make a mall and ship it all away? Hey, use the mall for your own factory-building QoL. Also, I think we're bloating the thread, maybe we should move to a private channel?
Alright, meet me on Public Plaza-17!
So... yeah. That can happen, and TV Tropes doesn't do anything against that.

First the blue(and only blue) text gets messed up, and now people are posting in different accounts? Like I said, utterly buzzare.
Remember when I said I’d “throw a projec-tail” at you? I’m going to get some arrows to throw at you and Blaze.
Me? What did I do to get arrow-ed like this?
It was the magnolias you stole. And the roses. And the daisies. And, somehow, the Amborella trees.
How did she fit an oak tree in there? Or those Lepidodenron trees? I think I’ll have to agree with Whitecrown on it being utterly bizarre.
The amount of flowers Blaze had in that place was un-tree-lievable. Now I know why lilac-ed the decorations.
I told you she was brazil-nutty!
Your tree puns arboring and oversimpleafied.
Well yours aren’t molecule at all. To be honest they’re rather add.

You mean what species? Well, Comet, Nova and Stella are babbling jays(sparrows but carnivorous and intelligent), I’m a vibropteran(hummingbird-bat thing), Brighteye and Whitecrown are bluetails(pretty much ravens but a bit smarter), and Blaze is a wooly wumpo(basically what you’d get if you took an elephant bird and made it literal). Everyone else that’s posting is a god for most intents and purposes.
