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.

O-oh, um! K-Kumpel is my pet, um.. y-you know what a Roomba is? Sh-she's not l-literally a Roomba, b-because that's a brand name and I made herself myself, b-but... sh-she's like that, yeah. A robotic vacuum cleaner. Pl-please don't make fun of me...
She's shaped like a fish and sh-she has a... n-not very sophisticated AI. Sh-she's intelligent enough to vroom to the door wh-when I come home, o-or try to "cuddle" with me, or comfort me when I'm sad with her little warbly chirps... I-I also gave her a speaker function... I-I care a lot about Kumpel.

....that's the most adorable thing I've ever heard. Kinda reminds me of CQL-15, but not as sapient...
O-oh, thank you! I'm... s-surprised at how positive the reception h-has been, honestly. Y-you know, m-maybe I have a photo somewhere... o-or a drawing... give a moment...
ForscherNagetier uploaded Kumpel.png.

I-isn't she?! She's so cute! Kumpel ist das süßeste Ding im ganzen Jewel Land!
Alex: *Oooh, that is a very cute robot, Talc-san. Maybe soon I could share pictures of my robot buddy, Chromite*
(Kirby and Coal arrive at Castle Dedede, where an orange creature wearing a Bandana waves to them)
Bandana Dee: "Heya, Buddy! What brings you to the Castle?"
Kirby: (Hi, Bandee! We're here to ask a question of the king.)
Bandana Dee: "Ok, I will let him know you are here. But first, who is that animal you have with you anyway?"
Coal: "I'm known as Coal, I'm tagging along for personal reasons"
Bandana Dee: "That is good to know. It is nice to meet you, Mister Coal! Give me a little bit" (to the distance) "[-Your Majesty, Kirby wants to talk to you!-]"
(The doors open, and Kirby and Coal walk in, where the King is sitting on his throne, chowing down)
Dedede: "So, what's the request, Kirbeh? You here for another sparring match?"
Kirby: (Not right now. Dedede. Right now, we're trying to find a rat named Talc.)
Dedede: "Hmmmm, do ya know what this "Talc" looks like?"
Kirby: (Well uhhhhhhhhh, Coal do you know what she looks like?)
Coal: "Yeah, but I don't have my phone with me. Does someone have something I could draw with and on?"
(After about a minute, Bandana Dee rushes in with a napkin and crayons and hands them to Coal. He takes them, and after about 3 minutes presents his drawing)
Dedede: "Hmmmmmm, can't say that I mahself have seen that rodent, but I could send some servants from the Patrol team to look for her."
Y-yeah, I-I know, a German speaking Jewelpet is pretty rare... sorry if it's weird...
O-oh, you... have a robotic companion of your own? I-I'd like to see them, too.

...s-sea cucumber, and they're....i-in my universe, most sea creatures have evolved to be land-dwellers! I...remember when I said I was 12,000 years old? ...I was created by the last humans. Th-the main sapient species in my world is evolved sea creatures...
O-oh, sorry, zoology was not my field of study...
...o-oh. I... I guess that explains that. I... I had a-always kind of figured that the multiverse was real, b-but it's hard to wrap my head around been shown it so... directly.
AITA for telling slanderous gossip and provoking the eagle and Nidhogg?[1]
N-NO, NO, I-I SHOULDN'T HAVE CORRECTED YOU SO BLUNTLY I'M SO SORRY—
Um....y-yeah. Sorry if it's a lot...wh-when I got here, I...already knew about the multiverse, hahah...I-I sometimes forget that most people...don't. Sorry.
