JUNE STATE OF THE GAME




⏵ June State of the Game and Arrivals ⏴


Hello, Etrayans!

We hope you enjoyed your time at Summer Camp! Or if your character had the fun of going off to Solmara, we hope they enjoyed fighting beasts, and convincing Borealis to come out of hiding!

For this application round, we have opted to keep them open an additional week. We announced this over plurk, but realize not everyone checks there! Their new closure date will be July 4th. This will not impact our log or posting schedule at all. In addition, as of today, June 27th, the X-Men cast is no longer under cap.

We've got our arrival mingle going up later today to welcome new characters! Please keep an eye out for it. On July 11th, our mission announcement and plotting post will be going up. We do want to note that this next mission will be off world, and we intend for its' duration to be four weeks. As always, we strive to be flexible and build our missions up to suit our player base/characters currently in game, so if we need to slow it down some or put up any additional logs mid-mission, we may check in with our players during to get a feel on if that would help any.

Our last feedback post went up on June 19th with our next coming up on September 18th - but we welcome feedback throughout the year regardless of if there's a specific post asking for it! You are always welcome to comment to our older feedback posts with any concerns, comments, or ideas of what we can do to improve the game. We can't promise to bring everything into play, but we do listen to the ideas that have been brought our way and have implemented many player suggestions in the past. Our Mod Contact page is always open in case you would like a screened location to reach out to.

Don't forget your Activity! This is just a comment with your handle and characters' names for new players. You are welcome to submit TDM threads for activity points if wanted. Our activity results post always goes up on the 1st of the month, and we have switched to providing a warning list for characters who have yet to responded to AC with an additional five days to respond from the date our results post goes up.


⏵ OOC INTRO ⏴


Welcome to the game, new arrivals! Please use the below form to introduce yourself, tell us what you’re looking forward to, and CR you want to play. We also have a mod comment HERE that you can use to ask us mods anything about our upcoming plans, add suggestions, or anything of the like.

PLAYER: rakel! they/she
CONTACT: PM works, but if you want to catch me on discord lmk, I'm in the server now! i may get back on my plurk at some point, just always ends up being a struggle to maintain
ABOUT YOU: Fandoms always change, having a moment here with Love and Deepspace (the lore is wild and I'm so amused), played Dragon Age the Veilguard last year when it came out and had a wonderful time, am reading Ballad of Sword and Wine along with Lout of Count's Family, I enjoy all kinds of media include original! Tagging wise, I can be swift or slowed down, but try to get out a round of log tags every other day. Text is quicker, just by its nature.

CHARACTER: Alexandra "Alex" Won, who also has her Chinese name of Won Xiuying, if that ever comes up somehow in game
CHARACTER INFO: Alex is a generally more positive person who is definitely going to rush into troubled situations because she strongly believes in protecting others, and has the ability to do so, so why wouldn't she? She's basically a jock otome protag who also loves to look pretty when she's having down time, enjoys crane games perhaps a little too much, and will Be Here For You because that's what you do even if someone is kind of shady. It's not that she's that trusting (grandmas, however, she might be too trusting of depending on circumstances), and she's more wary of people than she tends to let on on the surface.

Please lets get into shenanigans! Let her be your fight/adventure buddy! It's her job back home and she's ready to overwork and overtrain here too, because who wouldn't? She's 23-24 and ready to continue making questionable decisions, as you do. No, she's never dated, and yes, you should be questioning her relationships with the guys in her life, because boy even just playing from the Main Storyline has some wild moments. Very... wild... moments.

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Alex definitely is your sci-fi protag, so with her I'd love horror, mystery, actiony adventures, or "this is your fake identity/family unit and sell it to discover whatever we need." She would be interested in plots that investigate Echo's motivations, as well as exploring Etraya beyond the bubble city/region they're in.

OTHER:


Please join her in battling against whatever you face and wondering how the heck Resonance works given energy seems to be able to do a whole bunch of things in world, all questionable. Every single one questionable.

Points to Verso, points to Alex. Neither one will forget...!

Did he come back with Heartbreaker or should Alex jumpscare him with one?
fromfire: (je suis ce que je fuis)

[personal profile] fromfire 2025-06-28 12:06 am (UTC)(link)
VERSO WILL REMEMBER THIS
ALEX WILL REMEMBER THIS


It's up to you! He does have his hammerspace and he stole a piano already.

Ah yes their video game announcement screens flash past --

HAHAHA he can! I'm figuring out who she might go "congratulations here's your plushie" at since she'd have brought those back and woken up in the hospital going ??? with them

did you already top level in the mingle or is that as work in progress as mine is
fromfire: (i was lost at sea)

[personal profile] fromfire 2025-06-28 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
BRIGHT RED TEXT --

Ah, let it be him! He'd appreciate a plushie. GIVE TO HIM. HE DESERVES.

I did not yet TL, I've been dead from work and shuffling along the ground, lmao. not even a wip, just a twinkle in the eye of my dreams.
reincarnesiac: (hnngh)

[personal profile] reincarnesiac 2025-06-28 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
RIGHT NEXT TO THE RED FLAGS--

oh good then he's slated for a heartbreaker though it might look different because i trust image searches instead of descriptive powers in the end /solemn

yeah i feel this, i just had a temp foster arrive so we are plus a dog and he's figuring out how he likes the resident pups and also the cat who engages with dogs more, it is tooo hooooot to think. but i just tossed mine up! it is... it is. /beatific smile
fromfire: (so honey sing and sing and sing)

[personal profile] fromfire 2025-06-28 12:40 am (UTC)(link)

LMAO acceptable and appreciated etc etc

oh new puppy.... i'll tag when i have brains... i'm only able to do like threads i have... i think i'll be more alive tomorrow. i was going to go to work at do some OT and then went FUCK THAT I'M ALREADY TIRED lmao
reincarnesiac: (yep we're a-okay over here)

[personal profile] reincarnesiac 2025-06-28 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
something she seems colorblind to anyway so let's frigging gooooooo

yeah glad you're sparing yourself!!! and no worries i have zero speed needs, i just wanted a TL up so that i won't forget when i take foster baby to his adoption event tomorrow. i'm half like... do i bring one of our other dogs too? or just carry foster baby

see this is where my thought process is right now hahaha
fromfire: (we felt as the first time)

[personal profile] fromfire 2025-06-28 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
let's frigging go!!! all flags are green when you're colorblind damn you right

oh an event that sounds cute... tell me what you decide. i am curious how the others would do.

LMAO amazing. we're vibing. yeah i'll be alive tomorrow and it shall be great.
reincarnesiac: (huh that's highly illogical)

[personal profile] reincarnesiac 2025-06-28 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
verso: walks covered in red flags
alex: love that color green on you

ALEXXXXXXXXXXXXX

I am so excited to continue to play with you! I am loving Clive and Alex's cr so far.
reincarnesiac: (yep we're a-okay over here)

[personal profile] reincarnesiac 2025-06-28 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
CLIIIIIIIVEEEEEE

i was laughing thank you for that thread, just going yeah okay. we're here to fight a monster. don't ask why i can help make the boom bigger let's GOOOOO. which is to say for all i've declined to live with the shift key in this response, i've been having fun with them too!!!

also no joke when does he want the white chocobo he needs a round ambrosia to be his friend, she's decided. possibly mostly because she likes plushies and will inflict a few on folks from having been in the gold saucer, as any sensible person would hahaha
herofhopeless: (soft smile)

[personal profile] herofhopeless 2025-06-28 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
That thread was great and I loved every second of it. I see more great things in the future for these two yahoos. When I saw that you app'd I got so excited!!!

ASAP lol

He is going to have a place to move into that isn't an apartment pretty quick on entry so he will have a bedroom to put it in. (He's gonna be at Garreg Mach)
reincarnesiac: (gun in hand and ready to rock'n'roll)

[personal profile] reincarnesiac 2025-06-28 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
Me going there's nothing that could go wrong with two protags with protag syndrome and a tendency to self-sacrifice in order to protect what they care about and also possibly not have always great danger recognition. It's fine!!! It's all fine!!! They know first aid they're set???

HAHAHA perfect, I can either hit up a TL for you on the mingle or drop it in his in box, whichever you prefer. Since they all came flowing out of the hospital around the same time she could spy him then to do the handoff!

Lucky ducky, Alex will live her best "... why are these older apartments" life because the future is not so far flung most of this area, but it's good, she'll just keep wondering why nothing is smart object compatible. why doesn't the kitchen suggest recipes anymore??? ugh!

Let's go the inbox route.

Wait til she comes and visits Clive for the first time and goes to a literal medieval castle. Won't that be a treat?
reincarnesiac: (quiet consideration)

[personal profile] reincarnesiac 2025-06-28 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
Salutes and hits you up there this day! Evening. Whatever time I'm currently experiencing

Crying, "So hey is this retrofitted with indoor plumbing? The castle aesthetic is beautiful, really, but I hear they're super drafty..."

i'm happy to tag alex again, either if you would like to continue their tdm thread or just have one-- i'm happy to run both at the same time, so i put the decision to you!

reincarnesiac: (smile like you mean it)

[personal profile] reincarnesiac 2025-07-01 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
