This is a thread where, as the title implies, our avatars (from our galleries) are posting in an in-universe forum thread. You can drop in any time with pretty much any character you want, whether from existing works or your own OCs. Though most of it is done through forum posts, some "in-person" interactions between characters is also fine.
Even if this is a more casual RP, there are still some rules and general RP etiquette to keep in mind for everyone to have a good time and feel comfortable:
- NO GODMODDING. Godmodding is when you decide what happens to another player's character, and is generally frowned upon. In particular, avoid injuring and especially killing someone else's character; fighting is ok but let the other player decide if the hit connects. If your plot idea requires something to happen to a different player's character, you'll want to privately discuss this with them and if they're ok with that. This includes in-universe moderation.
- Be nice and respect other players' boundaries. Your character being mean or a jerk is one thing, but if someone gets uncomfortable about your behavior towards their characters, knock it off. Also do not force others into your story arcs; in general it would be a good idea to ask the other person first if they are interested, and plan it together if they are.
- If you have anything to say, ask about, ect. that is not part of the RP, you can put it under a spoiler tag [[spoiler: like this]]
- While almost any character is welcome, please avoid playing any real-life person who's mainly associated with controversies, drama and problematic behavior. We don't need that here.
- Have fun!
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.

: y-yeah, let's... talk about something a lot nicer.
yeah, kasumin wants to talk about something other then horrible sicknesses... ( - ~ - )
i'm not sure what dandelions or a unicycle act is, but i'd like to hear about them!!

Rex: ...Crap, that's horrifying too.
Noah: I guess a mercy killing's the best option. At least, I think that's the best option because I can't think of anything else when those tumors get to you.
Rex: And I thought EVO problems are bad.

I mean, over here? Used to suck hardcore, but not anymore. Things are going a lot better than ever!
Ugg: Ugg world not bad. Meat good. Food good. Ugg no know how big world is. Nor Ugg care.
Noah: Earth's big but... not that big compared to everything else.
Ugg: Ugg like simple life. Wake up, eat, hunt, eat, carve, sleep.
Noah: ...Sometimes I'm not sure whether to envy or pity people who lives in the past.

Blowing into a dandelion is fun. Unicycle... I think it's impressive to pull off tricks on that.
Ratatoskr
Ugg: Ugg never hear both either.
Rex: Well dandelions are flowers-
Ugg: Leaves that smell good?
Noah: Uh yeah, sure. You blow into a dandelion, it'll scatter its flowers all over.
Unicycle... sort of like a bike with one wheel instead of two. Not much practical use other than showing you have good balance.

Oh- uh...
..This is the first time I'll ever talk about my personal life.
A unicycle act is sorta like...a balancing act...but, uh, less life-threatening! The preformer gets on a little thing called a 'bike' with one wheel, and has to ride it in circles for a fixed amount of time without falling off...
I decided to take that instead of a balancing act, partly because doing another one of those would'nt sit well with me, and I haven't really been on a unicycle before. I did really well! I got a lot of people cheering for me, even got a few roses thrown my way...and a couple of letters saying "thank you for not leaving us". That...that last one put a smile on my face for the rest of the day.
You guys don't have dandelions where your from?

Noah: We do.
Tome: Afternoon! And yeah we have dandelions! Blowing into 'em and seeing everything float feels sooo nice-
Ugg: Ugg never see that smell-good leaves before.
Rex: I think that exists even way back in Earth's history?

: it was... not a fun thing to discover. especially since afterwards, i had to navigate myself out of that diseased room, and when those tumors get their tendrils on you, they'll... i'm sorry. i should... really stop elaborating at this point.
it was... a really messed up situation all around. i'm not even sure if a mercy kill would work, given the great cycle and all. and even if it would... i'm not sure how i'd even pull that off against him.
...this is an upsetting topic. let's move on something else.
Wildflower
: well, we have dandelion peaches
. they're these feathery puffballs full of sweet sap... i've never heard of a plain dandelion, however...
Clownfish
: ...oh!! that's really nice to hear!!! i'm... i'm glad that you've been getting well wishes, mister clownfish.
Thanks, lil buddy. It...it meant a lot to me getting those. It made me think of myself as less of a failed joke and someone who can brighten up your day the right way.
Well, I can uh- see why they're familiar...but we have plain dandelions here! They...aren't for eating, but whenever you blow the petals off one...it means you get to make a wish. For someone to be better, for a better day...or to see someone again. Usually, I go to the field outside my house and take all the dandelions I can find...theres a lot of wishes I've made over the years...and I really hope one day they'll all come true.

Rex: Yeah let's move on. I can see why that memory is distressing you.
Ugg: Why eat good-smell leaves when you can better smell?
Noah: ...Caveman has a good point.
Pizzastropes180
Wishes huh? ...I never thought of that.
Rex: That's a loooot of wishes from a single flower. I hope they'll all come true too.

Happy birthday dear lil Milktchi, here's a sensational cake I made~ *smooch*
Uhh tee hee hee, *blushes* silly Furifuritchi, a platonic kiss? But thank you a lot!
Oooh, reminds me of a certain, small, kind of unhappy, normal little fellow I'll be smothering with love todaaay~
Oh that's a funny way of saying-
"And for one night only...you can get your revenge." / NEW
You know, that wasn't very funny.
Erm... what's the rundown on this "18" person? They evil or something?
Probably. Otherwise we wouldn't be getting warned about them.
Well, let's just hope they don't come back soon...

: ...i'm glad you can see how much people... really do care about you, and the work you do. it certainly feels more real when you can see it in person, huh??
Wildflower
oh!! that's... that's lovely!!
...i wonder if dandelion peaches have the same properties. maybe i should go to sky islands and, instead of eating them, just... blow away the feathers, and wish as hard as i can...
Myskywarm
: huh. the more you know!!
dandelions don't taste that bad. like, they probably wouldn't taste very good uncooked, but kasumin made dandelion bread once, and it was pretty good!!! tasted kinda like honey (っ˘ڡ˘ς)

: oh, happy birthday, milktchi!! i hope you have a wonderful cycle!!!

WHAT ARE YOU EVEN TALKING ABOUT??? ⁽⁽(૭ꐦ •̀Д•́ )૭*⁾⁾
Kyle
: y-yeah, i don't even know what they're even talking about... did something happen regarding mister 18???
LackingEff0rt
: pride month??? what's pride month??? is... is it some kind of time when people indulge in their worst excesses and that's why mx. chara's so scared???
WHAT??? NO!!! ୧(๑•̀ᗝ•́)૭ pride month's when, like, all the lgbtq+ people celebrate their queerness!!! ദ്ദി ( ᵔ ᗜ ᵔ )
oh, okay!!! ...what's "lgbtq+???"
...you're nonbinary and you don't know what "lgbtq+" is??? ( ̄▽ ̄||)
n-no??? is the fact that slugcats don't really have "genders" the way you guys have somehow related to this???
Kasumi-chan, allow me to explain.
alright... ('''– ⌓ –)=3
"LGBTQ+" is an acronym that stands for lesbian, gay- meaning men and nonbinary people attracted to men and other nonbinary people, bisexual- people who are attracted to people of any gender, transgender people, and queer, the last of which is a catch-all term meant to encapsulate all other groups included as part of the community, such as asexuals, aromantic people, and intersex people.
In the past, people who fell under the LGBTQ+ umbrella weren't always treated well, so pride month serves as a time when they can celebrate their identities.
Kasumi's confusion was likely stemmed from the fact that, when it comes to humans, being nonbinary is considered part of the LGBTQ+ umbrella. I understand your confusion, however, since from what I've gathered, being nonbinary is the default for your species.
As for what Chara-kun said... assuming they were alluding to pride month, they were probably referencing the popular meme that straight people and cisgender people, who are not considered part of the LGBTQ+ umbrella, vanish during pride month. That being said, Chara-kun is a nonbinary lesbian, resulting in the joke not making much sense... meaning they were probably talking about 18.
Selfish
: h-huh??? what are you talking about?!?!
(I'll respond to Mr. G and Brandy asking about 18 next post, because long post is long.)

Yes, one of the reasons why July 16th was so hectic.
I figured he would come back some day eventually.

: from what i've told, mister 18 was... an old friend of mx. rui and the other vowels. their friendship... wasn't a very healthy one. supposedly, he- he devoured inkfish and didn't feel at all sorry about it.
he's... shown up on the forum again, now suffering from amnesia and being tormented by labcoat people in a too small cell, and now all of us are trying to figure out what to do about it. some people think we should- should kill him before he causes trouble again, but other people think we shouldn't jump the gun when we don't even know if he hasn't improved. mister kyle also says he has a way to force him to see reason...
...i don't know. it's just a really complicated situation all around. i want to find a clean and pretty solution to this all... but sophonts are inherently messy creatures.

Oh, and that flower apologized for making someone else feel like shit. And they seemed pretty genuine about it, too.

: yeah... kasumin can confirm, as the girl who got the apology. as tempted as i was to get all mad at him, i knew a lot better... and honestly, kasumin's proud of herself for that.
