NOVEMBER STATE OF THE GAME

⏵ November State of the Game and Arrivals ⏴

Hello, Etrayans!

Welcome to almost December!

Our December plans mod-wise are fairly minimal - we have our intro/mingle log going up later this evening (with a surprise twist!) and then another intro log going up December 20th, but no other mod logs planned between then. We will use this time to focus on individual player plots (so please submit those if you'd like!) and catch up with other mod work, such as the locations page.

In the meantime, we hope you all have a nice holiday season!

Our next feedback post is going up on December 19th - but we welcome feedback throughout the year regardless of if there's a specific post asking for it! If you have any comments, questions, concerns, our Mod Contact page is always open! The feedback post provides a non-screened space for players to communicate with the mod team, and we do our best to respond to concerns brought to us there - as well as respond to suggestions.

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.

⏵ 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: your name/handle, and your preferred pronouns if you want to provide them!
CONTACT: your plurk, discord, carrier pigeon's name to call out to the wind to get their attention 
ABOUT YOU: what fandoms are you in? what cool thing about you do you think would be fun to share? are you more of a texty tagger, a log tagger, quick boomeranger?

CHARACTER: who have you apped? what canon are they from?
CHARACTER INFO: are they rowdy and loud? an introvert who needs an extrovert to adopt them and take them out into the world? how are they going to settle into game? is there anything in particular you're looking for with them?
PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: mostly for us mods: tell us things you're interested in! are you here more for horror elements, the mystery, soft fluffy missions, or the plot behind why echo has called everyone in? do you want to explore the world and figure out what's beyond the bubble etraya resides in? let us know!
OTHER: this is for pretty pictures or gifs.

ABOUT YOU: I am located in the USA on the East Coast. A fact I offer because due to my RL work/responsibilities my preferred playing style these days is to boomerang when I have time to sit and enjoy this hobby. I will always try to keep up with backtags, but I often have to call a thread if it gets too far back. BUT I am always happy to talk OOC and discuss any important points that could come out of that thread! I am happy to be friended on Plurk, my own Plurk is dedicated to RP. Sometimes I do character analysis, or I'll make a note if I'm going to be traveling for work, but for the most part it's an RP Plurk. I have a wide interest in fandoms, mostly older fandoms.

CHARACTER: Will Graham | Hannibal (NBC)

CHARACTER INFO: Will is definitely an introvert who would benefit from being adopted! He is taken from the cliff dive of s3, so he's not as twitchy or outwardly unstable as he is shown in s1. He is accepting of his monster, and he is accepting of his soul deep entanglement with Hannibal. He will be pretty careful about his "person suit", isn't looking to start anything, but he also won't be trying to interfere with Hannibal's fun. Though he may try to distract Hannibal from Hanniballing, but he won't be as aggressive about bringing Hannibal to justice, the way he was in s2.

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I like to let plots/CR happen as organically as possible. I'm pretty open to anything, BUT I am not looking to write negative CR that is just negative CR with no plot purpose, or resolution plan. If is part of a plot, or a specific goal, let's discuss! But character's who are rude, just to be rude, will get a door in the face. It's Hannibal canon that this is the way Will deals with people who he finds minorly annoying.

Anything else, do not hesitate to throw it my way!! I love it when stuff comes up ICly in a thread, or contact me with an idea and we can work it out!

OTHER: My favorite Will gif, which also happens to be a perfect expression of Will's current fuck's given meter.

aaaAHHH WILL! hilariously, due to recent event things, Rosie finally has enough points to get a dog so that might be a fun way for these guys to meet since I know Will's a dog dude

she's also a sunshine lady extrovert who will likely happily 'adopt' Will though that will also likely come with some flirtatious teasing as she's prone to do

Hello!

Yeeeesss!! A doggo! That might be a gateway to encouraging Will to put in some effort in pursuit of Winston. And a dog is always a good icebreaker with Will. ;)

She is welcome to flirt tease to her heart's content! Will will be hopelessly awkward.

Unfortunately for him, that will only encourage her more
but she'll be excited to talk dogs too
and even introduce Will to the wolves in the woods!!

Will now out in the woods every chance he gets trying to befriend the wolves!

This all sounds fantastic! Looking forward to it!!

I LOVE WILL SFM

hi5 for fellow hapless victim to a toxic homoerotic entanglement with a deranged sophisticate

Oh geeze!! /o\ But what fun it could be if they get together and compare notes?!?

only for ivan and hannibal, probably. will and till (...jesus) are just trying to come up with survival strats

... we are going to have a heck of a time with those two names. ;)

Compare notes on survival strategies? Will will appreciate talking with someone who just "gets it" without him trying to explain the situation!!

There will be SHENANIGANS with these two in the future and I am absolutely here for it.

I AM HERE FOR SHENANIGANS!!!

Yes, please! I need more of these two /makes grabby hands in Carver's direction!

Hey! I really enjoyed our TDM thread! Looking forward to playing with you more!

Hello! Thank you!! I did as well!! Definitely looking forward to more threads with these two. \o/

ETA: Would you like to keep our TDM thread as game canon, or go with a blank slate?

Edited 2024-11-24 00:54 (UTC)

I'm honestly good with either. If we keep it game canon I'd like to keep going with it, I think these two could have a very interesting first meeting!

I am absolutely on board with that idea!

I will go tag that thread now, as we speak!

Yes!!! I'm so excited!!! I'm settled in to tag for the evening so expect a tag back in short order!

Oooo!! Good news for me, as I am settled in for the rest of the night for tagging purposes as well!

Heyyy, so happy you apped in! I'm looking forward to continuing to toss the canon versions of our guys at each other!

Thank you! I am excited to be here and definitely look forward to more conversations between Accelerator and Will. Especially if/when Accelerator learns that Will comes from Hannibal's universe!

Yesss I look forward to it, Accy is confronting Hannibal about the whole cannibalism thing so I expect that to lead to interesting things!

I am so very eager for Will and Vanessa to meet...! They are going to have the most Normal conversations.

She'll recognize him immediately, thanks to psychic shenanigans. Apologies if things get weird around her but he's used to morbid conversation and reality distorting into creepy bs, right?

Hello!

Yes, he is very used to these things, though it won't stop him from being thrown by the fact that she recognizes him so quickly. Thrown and then nervous, because OMG what memories did Hannibal share....

I look forward to all this!! /grabby hands!

'Share' is a liberal term here, she definitely wasn't invited into his head. But she saw Will and Abigail in Hannibal's kitchen, so... she'll be surprised to see him alive, let's say.

She was also taking cooking lessons from Hannibal for awhile, but after a temporary hiccup of becoming Etraya's Most Wanted and then losing someone important, she's been something of a hermit trapped in her own psychosis and may become dependent on Hannibal for all the Best Therapy. Surely nothing he could relate to...

Oooof, Vanessa! Creeping around in Hannibal's head is not good for your health.

Joking aside, I am not here to use Will in ANY capacity to hamper CR opportunities between Hannibal and other characters. You guys let me know how much or how little you'd like Will to be involved, and I am happy to add flavor but not thoroughly tell Vanessa that she's making a BIG MISTAKE!

She never does anything good for her health.

But honestly feel free to try and warn her if that's what he'd do! It'd probably have the opposite effect. She's no stranger to monsters in men, or literal demons, and tends to hang around the worst types (of which she definitely ranks...), and that is exactly why Satan wants her so bad.

but tbh she'll be incredibly fascinated by Will and that funhouse brain of his. She already knows his relationship with Hannibal is murdermantic so don't mind her just openly staring and watching, like an owl. First ingame shipper
