Summer Dance Mix (open player plot)

WHO: People around Ellipsa and also Rinku
WHAT: The curse that creates a simulation game of your world is back, but it’s… significantly more harmless (except maybe for your wallet).
WHEN: July 6
WHERE: Weird mind space
WARNINGS: Some discussion of trauma/teamnesia games and what goes on in those, as well as the recent Cursed RPG, Jar of Human Poké Ball, and Lobotomy Corporation player plots.

[You were going about your day. Maybe you were hoping for something nice to happen after everything that’s been going on in town these days. It’s been a rough summer so far, after all, for some more than others.

Something grabs you, though. In the real world, you’ve fallen asleep where you stand, but from your perspective, you suddenly see a stage lit up purple and a cheering crowd.]


RAISE YOUR HANDS UP!!!

Let’s Go!
NEXT MEMBER IS…


[Light flashes, and you’re standing backstage. There are others standing around too, some you might recognize. On the stage, you’ll see a DJ booth with your faces on it. One of you might have an instrument, another a fancy glowstick or two, and you’ve all got microphone headsets on.

The announcer is calling you on stage.

Welcome to D4FES.]




[Have fun – it’s an open, lighthearted variation on the cursed-item player plot! Info is here, but basically your character is now expected to perform a DJ live, either alone or in a group (players can work that out). There are turntables on the stage that you suddenly know how to use, and characters who wish to fulfill extra roles in units while one of their threadmates DJs will also have whatever equipment they need and the knowledge to use it. Want to VJ? You’ve got a laptop ready, and mysteriously, all the art or video footage you can imagine is there to project onto the screen behind you or into your LED penlights. Want to play live music? Have an instrument!

The post will be divided into three toplevels in chronological: Free Play (where you play your first round and get used to Suddenly You’re On Stage), Gacha (backstage mingle with everyone else, where a gacha mechanic will put you in new clothes that make you feel stronger and that your threadmates can envy and/or laugh at), and Raid (go perform again with all your new skill and score high enough to break out of the simulation).

As is standard, no powers. We don’t want any accidents on stage.]

I mean I wouldn't mind. I like this outfit.

Yeah, I think my outfit's pretty cool, too. I'd be sad to lose it...
noodleboi: (S3 Human - just a happy mk)

Then they gotta let us keep them. Yours is super cool.

If they don't, which is so cheap, we could get them at the reward shop. I'm sure on of the wishing flowers would work, right?

Right?

[ She places her hands on her hips, nodding with confidence. ]

And maybe...? I have to admit, I've never gotten clothes out of those. Just weird things.

I got a weird one once from the shady store. Rikku's is legit though. It's expensive but worth it.

Oh.

The weird thing I got wasn't from the shady store...
noodleboi: (S3 Human - Processing)

[personal profile] noodleboi 2024-07-19 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
It wasn't? I got something weird from the shady one so I thought all their stuff was weird.

What weird thing did you get from the other shop?

A walking, talking billboard with my face on it.
noodleboi: (S4 Human - I had a what in my hair)

[personal profile] noodleboi 2024-07-21 10:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Oooookay. That...yeah. That is weird. Kinda cool but really weird.
starwill: (pic#17262233)

[personal profile] starwill 2024-07-22 04:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. They like following me around if they see me.
noodleboi: (S2 Human - Uuuuuuuuuuh)

[personal profile] noodleboi 2024-07-23 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
That could maybe get annoying. But kinda flattering? Like you got your own fans trying to tell everyone how cool you are.

Haha... sometimes I have to hit them in order to get them to stop...
noodleboi: (S3 Human - lights on no one home)

[personal profile] noodleboi 2024-07-24 04:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I mean at least they're just a billboard. But that does make them stop. I'll make sure I don't buy one of those then.
starwill: (pic#17067411)

[personal profile] starwill 2024-07-24 09:55 pm (UTC)(link)
...yeah. Although fair warning: the billboard did come from one of those things that brings stuff from your home universe.
noodleboi: (S2 Human - Nobody liked that)

[personal profile] noodleboi 2024-07-25 05:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Then I gotta be really careful what I ask for from back home then. Because I do not want that. No thanks.

Hopefully your luck is better than mine, at least.
