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.

Hmm, I've never heard of a "Part II" for St. Valentine's Day. Is "White Day" a local custom where you live?
Back in Transylvania, I think it's St. Benedict's (which, unless he's your patron, isn't a big holiday).
Please visit the "AITA" forum game[1] "Valentine's Day 2" is a pretty interesting description. Thanks for the info!
"Please do not reproduce this textbook." - S. Banach & A. Tarski
I like White Day! My hair is white as snow!
"Can't afford me? Tough break, kiddo."Woo! Snowboarding on days like this is the bomb! Geronimo!
Blazin', I'm more into skiing myself since the air tricks are cooler imo.
Wanna make figure skating more badass? Add some hockey practice to it, yeah!
Meet the Tamas!◊ This is where it will end, by my hand.I forgot about White Day. Not like I do anything different on it.
"That was a pointless encounter with a pointless person."
I’m a mercenary, but I have standards in doing this you know, especially since the uprising.
Speaking of universe degrees, how’s my universe compared to Phos’s? Do I need special equipment for this?
I agree, I’m much of a bachelor really…
What’s this “uprising” you mentioned, Morgan?
Um, just a little incident involving anarchists that would’ve screwed the world over if I wasn’t involved.
…does anyone want me to elaborate on that?
Yo buddies, still tropin’?I don't know. Is there anything in Morgan's homeworld (or, more interestingly, on/in his body) that's incompatible with IRL physics?
I don't know, should I come over and test your degree?
Oh, speaking of meetups - Cinn, Phos, you wanted to have another meetup at the school, right? We decided to skip over that last time because it got late. I'd have to ask Albedo for a day off - I'm sure he wouldn't mind - but do you have time?
RP or implied? I'd opt for implied, but if you wanna RP, that's fine by me too

Speaking of skating, I'm probably gonna go skating with a bunch of friends at the local lake since it actually froze over the night before. It should be fun.
That's cool. As for me, I'm gonna go look for some rare Ice-type Pokemon to catch, since there's a large blizzard where I live too, and that might draw them out into the open.
Bundle up. I've been in blizzards a lot, and the experience can be painful if you don't wear enough layers.
"Paldea has a lot of different Pokemon from those in Kitakami." - Carmine[1] I’m okay with implying it, got a busy week to deal with on my end. As for Morgan, he’s just a normal human being, albeit a Badass Normal for the job that he does.
Sure, I guess. Expect my world to be similar to Stefan’s, but a bit rougher…
OOC: By rougher, I mean the world’s recovering from a World War III caused from an escalation between Russia and Ukraine, and that’s all I can say for now…
Well, we may do that and you could meet Sensei…
Though, I’m concerned what Sensei would react to an actual human, especially if Morgan, a war-monger, would join us.
Hey, I read that!
Yo buddies, still tropin’?On the topic of Sandbox.Characters Our Avatars Are Posting In A Forum Thread, I have some questions for the users of this thread.
1) Do you think the sandbox page will be ready to move to Characters.Our Avatars Are Posting On A Forum Thread itself? Or does it still need work?
2) There are some users who I created sections for, but who have not added any tropes or descriptions for their characters. Should I contact the users, delete their sections, or just leave things be?
3) For the sake of precident, should we allow any user to edit any other user's characters, or should each user have "control" over their own character folders?
There’s lots of characters with blank information, so I’m not sure if that’s ready…
Yo buddies, still tropin’?[1] Alright... wait, how do you know what Stefan's world looks like?
[2] I agree with Morgan here, some characters could use more tropes. I'd say it's worth a shot to contact the people in question, and if they don't respond, fill in tropes for them (as long as they don't complain). Me, I'm fine with people giving tropes to my characters
"Please do not reproduce this textbook." - S. Banach & A. Tarski: I am a cyborg, not a robot. But I do thank both you and the others for the welcome.
: You have my sympathies, Miss Ashido. I know what it's like when things don't go your way. That said, compared to other events, five inches of snow isn't too bad and it is a natural event, isn't it? Ask Mr. Allen and Mr. West, or some of Master Wayne's teammates sometime.
: I, thankfully, don't have to deal with weather machines so much.
: What about Fries? He feels the need to freeze Gotham City in its entirety on occasion.
: Victor Fries is a tragic case, Officer Cephon.
: Depending on the time, anyway. Still, I could call Storm and ask her to help you, Mina.
: This conversion cannot be normal, can it, Alfred?
: Remember who you're talking to.

Thanks for the help, guys. It's okay, though. The movie theaters here have been closed already, unfortunately, so I'm fine with waiting until the weekend to watch a movie. Skating though has been a good change of plans, and I'm refreshing my skills with figure eights and stuff.
The ice is quite slippery. Be careful not to stumble. I stumbled once when trying to ice skate and I ended up in a leg cast for a month.
I didn't know that. I'm sorry to hear.
It's fine. Just be safe, okay?
Will do.
"Paldea has a lot of different Pokemon from those in Kitakami." - Carmine(x2)
So, for some of the new users:
- I believe Birdy and RoboCop work in law enforcement. Do I have that correct, or am I mistaken?
- Peter Parker, I think you're in (for lack of a better word) volunteer heroism, yes?
- I already know Alfred is Batman's butler.
- Batman, from what I can see, you seem to be a kind of intelligence agent? Or is it a private investigator where seemingly all of the crimiminal cases you investigate can be traced back to rogue, unhinged madboys, or am I wrong in both guesses?
(x3&4)
Thanks for the imput. I personally didn't think it was ready, but since some users weren't editing their folders, I wanted to check if all those who wanted to contribute had already done so. I'll reach out to some of the others privately.
Please visit the "AITA" forum game: Though our methods are different.
: Barely, you're both bulls in a china shop.
: Must you really be like this, sir?
: I've been a photographer, a teacher, an Avenger
: Thanks to one of your enemies, a businessman. Also, you're not enitrely inaccurate about Master Wayne, your highness. He is skilled as a detective and in espionage, but those aren't his professions.
I hadn't added anything before because I want to find my groove first before I do so.

Troper Wall — DeviantArtIm a tad curious bat man why the the bat theme? Bats are not typically well known as hunters or protectors Id say even a owl theme would make more sense as their vigilant hunters during the night.

I look to the stars... but that's mostly because there isn't anything else interesting(x2) That's OK. You're not one of the users I had in mind; you joined recently, while I was mostly thinking about users who were here months ago & haven't touched their profiles since.
Sounds like you have a long work history, Peter.
Also, Batman, what wou— Oh, right, secret identity and all. Never mind.
So I take it the bit about fighting rogue madboys is true, Batman? And apparently you refuse to kill them? Interesting. How does that work? My father sent those kinds of criminals to Castle Heterodyne, but you probably have a different punishment.

Please visit the "AITA" forum game: Bats do scare people, though. And as for my enemies--
: They go to a revolving door called "Arkham Asylum"! I should know.
: (gritting his teeth) Joker...
: Hey, Batsy, I heard you got yourself some new friends! And you weren't even going to tell me?! What if I wanted to meet them? Well, most of them, anyway; I already met Spidey — and his clone. And the cyborg.
: So this is the infamous Joker.
: Afraid so.
: So you're Birdy, young lady. Not quite what I was expecting. By the way, missed me, Spidey and DodoCop? I know Bats and Jeeves did.
and : No.
: I already hate this man.
: Good.
: Why is my spider-sense tingling?
: Hello, Parker!

Troper Wall — DeviantArtThe Joker and Green Goblin? What a mess...
Oh dear, things just got a little sinister up in here...
Meet the Tamas!◊ This is where it will end, by my hand.
[1] The Joker and the Goblin…
Spidey, Batman, can I shut these guys up for free so you don’t have to deal with them???
I think I directly messaged (you guys call it a DM, I believe) Morgan what Stefan told me during the last time we met physically in my world.
And I sort of connected the dots how similar his world is to mine, especially before crap hit the fan…
Edit:
Nice! As for you Stefan, how’s the Ukraine-Russia situation there? Has there been escalation?
OOC: If this is too real, I won’t press further…
Edited by MorganFoulke on Mar 14th 2023 at 3:28:28 PM
Yo buddies, still tropin’?: No.
: And no. We can handle this.
: The Joker told us about this and we decided to join in.
: "We"?
: I had to use a Lazarus pit for one of them; hope Ra's al Ghul doesn't mind.
: He will.
: The lady seemed nice, though.
and : Oh, no...
: I don't know how I let him talk me into this, especially since I made a point to avoid him.
: (though gritted teeth) Christella Revi...
: What is a Lazarus pit?
: The Lazarus pits are a series of chemical pits that can heal most injuries, reverse aging, and even bring back the dead.
: I was afraid of that.
: That's right, RoboDumbass.
: As Lexy once said, "I love bringing people together."

White Day is a month after Valentine’s (aka March 14), and it’s about reciprocating gifts that were given to you on Valentine’s. That traditionally means men giving stuff to women, but it’s not really that strict. It’s also got associations with schoolchildren confessing to their crushes. Basically Valentine’s Day 2.
