APRIL CR MEME

[groundrules]

Salutations! Just a few notes before the main event:

■ we're a tighter crew than originally anticipated for April, following some hiatuses, so we'll be adjusting this month's calendar timeline. We'll have a check-in below if anyone wants follow-up, cues or clues, or has questions about what they discovered in the latest & greatest. We'll have a think about a second check-in in late April.

■ Don't forget your NPC threads, if you signed up for one! Generally, please share any interesting discoveries that have emerged from them or from plot rolls with the entire group — a creepy network post a day keeps the... doctor away and gets everyone killed.

■ Check out the latest character housing arrangements!

■ In case you've missed it: PM if you'd like a(nother) invite to the game discord server. Invites typically go out when you join, but dreamwidth notifications aren't always friends.

And now:

having met xue yang for all of 5min, she can safely agree that he is not good no
listen i have to orchestrate the situation in which hermione blurts out that he's obscenely beautiful

[blackscales]

Lemme chase down people and see if they can focus it a bit for a week or two!


Also can confirm DRAGON SHRINE WAS A JOKE. The problem is Wrathion values information most but because the reward is from Weisi he'd be wary about asking for something that draws too much attention. Is there any kind of library or records room he can ask for access to so the specific direction of his nosiness is indirect? Or a village elder he can "learn from" about their Fascinating Traditions (tm)? He really wants to know about those antler folk in the volcano and their connection to the Beastmaster/ power in the volcano/ sacrifices etc. Or tbh any other mystery bothering him that's just top of the list, but directly asking Weisi feels dangerous.

[cairhien]

its definitely a gay requirement

[reparo]

is there a grading system?

[cairhien]

only in how fabulously gay you are
but it took moiraine a while to get there 😂

[blackscales]

Wrathion will absolutely be his friend, he was nice to him once and that's the bar for friendship for him! He also collects good boys because he considers it his job to be the bad cop when they cannot.

[traaaaaash]

They're just weird like that??

[traaaaaash]

I do say that! Eda here went to Magic School and was on the potions track! At home, selling them is one of her hustles. Including the snake oil. That's a canon quote there welp.

So I imagine she'd try her luck with the same thing here as well!

[reparo]

well, first of all i hope eda is open to joining hermione's w.a.p. (women against poisoners) group; if she isn't, hermione's got some compelling arguments let her bully you
second of all, she's been BREWING HEAVILY since about two arcs ago so i hope they can bump into each other when gathering supplies or something like that :D

[reparo]

can't believe you missed a chance to actually put a ring on it

[blackscales]

Hermione are you proposing ...... again?

[reparo]

can a girl not platonically want some dragon-made jewellery? she made you cushions

[blackscales]

Well he thought you were more a practical type than a jewellery type but if you want jewellery he can easily make you some. Can get that bling real easy.

[traaaaaash]

Canonically Eda's getting about ready to throw down with the Emperor himself so she might be convincable 8D

Eda is probably gonna have questions because in her canon, humans can't do magic. 8D "Your ears are so round how come you can do this"

[reparo]

so a wand with dragon blood in it is the obvious alternative? wrathion does not do things by halves (except growing) (bc he is a smol dragon) (have to remember that)

[reparo]

omg omg YES yes this is excellent let them discuss everything about magic, bloodlines, prejudice in their world
and then they can adopt each other as friend

[traaaaaash]

Kid you are going to learn so much about chaos and anarchy

we'll get you your first wanted poster yet

[blackscales]

Yes, that was the practical alternative!! I did put his product as relentless. No Half Measures Hermione!!

AND HE ISN'T SMALL HE'S VERY LARGE AND POWERFUL.

[reparo]

the potential is there
i did say i wanted violence and social justice for her cr lol

[traaaaaash]

SOUNDS GOOD

[techmaturgy]

well, he has no money right now. so, favors, probably. he can make her stuff??

Viktor will probably be pretty sympathetic to her Plight given his own everything...do you want to work on, maybe, fixing that? He's not, like, an alchemist or anything but that hasn't stopped him before

I also do want him carried around by a monster lady, thanks

[techmaturgy]

WORKING HIMSELF TO DEATH but also extremely interested in magic. and people who can do magic. Can you do magic, Hermione.

[traaaaaash]

mostly she needs her elixir to keep the Owl Beast in check

also, excellent *rubs hands together* I'm sure that can be arranged!

[techmaturgy]

please give him one (1) drop. to analyze.

HE will not enjoy it but I will and that's what matters

[reparo]

is water wet?
here to feed the curiosity of one of the most interesting characters in Arcane tbh
