*BTSB (Backstay Sailor Boys) Mania continues to take Lunatia by storm, and all the city is abuzz with excitement as they plaster billboards of their favorite boys displaying their best boyband pose. Every corner you turn, you will hear one of their classic tunes playing at every store over their loudspeakers.

The boys have become inescapable at this point! Ads and promotions for their upcoming concert are everywhere. Your communication device has also been automatically updated to play their catchy songs as one of your notification sounds. Some may deny it, but the earworm has made its way into their hearts sooner than they know it. But while some of you may be engaging in intense debates on who the best *BTSB boy is on Prismagram, others are starting to get boyband fatigue after hearing the same songs on loop ad nauseum.

“You say hate me, but it sure is a lie. Baby, hey, hey, hey...”

▶ The Right Stuff
04/25 - 04/28 | City of Lunatia | top

With their live concert date fast approaching, *BTSB finally releases their most anticipated full album, “My Favorite Prismagram Girl.” Its title track’s infectious tone has caught on rapidly, shooting to number one in the first week of its release. Now, you can hardly find sleep without that song blasting raucously from those bam boxes on the street.

“My Favorite Prismagram Girl... woah-oh-oh... She’s my favorite Prismagram Girl...” You can’t get it out of your head no matter how hard you try, and the more you listen to it, the more you find yourself tolerating or, gods forbid, liking it. No matter how much you want to say bye bye bye to this bop, you find yourself having the time of your life when it comes on.

 A  You become a diehard fan, spending exorbitant amounts of money on *BTSB merchandise. You fit right in among other simpering and cooing fans. You won’t know what’s possessed you, but you are utterly hypnotized and you’ll absolutely do anything for your favorite band member’s limited merch, even bringing out the claws against other fans.

After the thousandth or so listen of their new hit album, you will notice a new lyric in the title track, accompanied with a key change that you somehow missed before in spite of having dissected the song front and back. Something about this lyric — “Call it what you want, baby, I’ll still call it lust” — may elicit an, ahem, reaction in your pants. Better hope you brought a second pair. Listening to this while holding your treasured merch will also fill you with an overflowing excitement and enthusiasm to share your love for your best boys. Your body itches for dance partners and karaoke duets, encouraging others to perform with you until you make them say "I do (cherish you)".

▶ Step by Step
04/29 | Level 1, Elaran Amphitheater | top

The hyped-up, sold out concert will be taking place at the Elaran Amphitheater, now fully repaired after the disaster from a few months ago. For those who missed out on ticket sales, it will also be broadcast online and displayed across almost every large screen in Lunatia. A floating stage is set up in the center of the theater as hordes and hordes of attending fans all fight for a chance to see the group live, if not to get close enough to feel their sweat.

But whether you're in line for the concert or an innocent bystander, you're soon drawn into an impromptu Battle Royale in the streets outside the venue. Some fans have gotten vicious, screeching, scratching, and shoving aside anyone in their way. They want it all or nothing at all. Steer clear if you’re not willing to push your way forward. Things are about to get ugly.

The stage’s backdrop is decorated with a strangely familiar three-headed dragon design. Anyone who follows Tarn's gaming channel will recognize it as his very own logo. Staring at it for too long makes you feel uneasy. More fans are concerned by Kaya's absence, which Suzaku explains with "a sudden illness".

 B  The concert will start with one of the songs from their new album: “The Dragon’s Discord.” Unlike their previous songs, this one is sung in an unfamiliar tongue, causing confusion among the crowd who expected official subtitles on the monitors. Not even the Moonblessed can understand what the lyrics are. All who can hear this mysterious song, be it at the concert or in the comfort of their homes, grow still and catatonic. One can prevent this by avoiding the music, wearing earplugs, or blasting their own music to drown it out.

Once the audience is under their spell, the youngest member Tarn takes center stage and sings an ominous incantation that begins absorbing Chroma through the lips of each and every Prismal and Moonblessed in his adoring audience. To protect those affected by Dragon’s Discord, one only needs to physically cover their lips. Intense moonlacing, such as kissing, with the victim will immediately snap them out of their trance. Those who lose too much Chroma will temporarily lose their voice, leaving them mute for up to an hour.

As Moon Knights enter the scene, two other members of *BTSB desperately follow up with more incantations, attempting to distract both authorities and Moonblessed to allow themselves ample time to escape.

• Lecter: Hearing his voice will cause your muscles to either limp or cramp to the point of excruciating pain. Moonlacing is required to restore (or remove!) the feeling in your limbs.
  
  
• Rasha: Hearing his voice will cause you to become obsessively enchanted with yourself. You will not be able to care about anything else except your own beauty. You will have the strong urge to hold someone and not let them go until they compliment you enough.

All effects will wear off after an hour, but by then, the *BTSB members will all be safely in hiding.

The incident at the concert is all over the news, angering Lunatians everywhere. The affected Prismals have since snapped out of the spell and have been given proper medical care. The Moon Knights have been working nonstop in their search for *BTSB, who disappeared without a trace.

That is, until a sudden city-wide midnight broadcast from Kaya appears:

Kaya

Hi, everyone. As you can see, I'm healthy as can be. I'm sorry I wasn't at the concert like I promised. I... I'm sorry that we took advantage of everyone for our own goals. I know my fans won't forgive me, and I don't expect them to. But I want you all to hear me out.

The truth is, I love this planet. There are many ugly things in it, but it's still beautiful, yeah? ... It was dying. I can't stand seeing something die in pain, so I thought it would be better to do it quickly and give the planet another shot. Yeah, that's why I joined the Oracles of the Sinless. The Moonblessed caught members of our sect — our cult last year, but that was only one of our many groups scattered throughout Prismatica. One of those groups was us. All of us in *BTSB, no, the whole cult shared one goal: to destroy the world and remake it.

But when the Moonblessed arrived, I saw them do so many beautiful things — things that I never thought were possible. "Looking back on the things I've done, I was trying to be someone... Now I'll show you the shape of my heart." Rasha wrote those lines, but this time I'll make them mine. If the Moonblessed can protect my home, then I want to help them! I don't want to watch anyone I care for die again...

To prove his sincerity, Kaya turns himself over to the Moon Knights and promises to assist Lunatia from now on. Having nothing else to work with, the Moon Knights decide to trust Kaya’s information.





▶ Hangin’ Tough
04/30 | Outside Lunatia, The Nothing | top

The Moon Knights set off for the Nothing, recruiting any willing volunteers to come along. Participants are given LIFE suits to safely cross the environment with. According to Kaya’s intel, his former allies should be staying in one of the hideouts for the Oracles of the Sinless, but he's not sure which, as the cult is always on the move. For now, he gives all possible locations.

The remaining *BTSB members will not go down without a fight. Once the Moon Knights and Moonblessed arrive, they are greeted by another stage performance. This time, *BTSB is joined by their fellow cult members. Tarn’s longtime channel subscribers and hardcore fans will also be present among the opposing force. All of them will be clad in their familiar fox masks and cult robes.

 C  The songs, no longer saccharine bubblegum pop, are now disturbing and dangerous, causing a multitude of hallucinations, such as monsters and layers of horrifying screams. This allows the cultists and hardcore fans to charge at the Moonblessed with every weapon imaginable.

Kaya soon interferes with his own music, his voice intercepting the cultists' song. The illusions you’re seeing begin to dissipate, and a friend's voice might be able to bring you back to your senses.

Outwitted yet again, Tarn viciously attacks Kaya to take him out for his betrayal, but Suzaku is quick on his feet. He launches himself forward and kicks Tarn to the ground. He’s shaking with anger, but his voice is clear as he addresses his bandmate.

Suzaku

I expected this day would come, but I never thought you would react this way, Tarn.

I thought that no matter what happened, we would always pull through together.



Tarn

What the hell are you doing, Suzaku? This world has always needed a reset. I'm just helping it reach a New Game+. It was Kaya who lost sight of that! He left us. Get out of my way, or you’re next!

Suzaku

No, it was you three who never considered Kaya’s feelings! He tried to convince everyone, but none of you considered his words. It’s you who has no right to say anything! After everything he’s done for us, you’re throwing it all away!? Well, not me! This world showed me the meaning of being lonely, but Kaya changed that! You can't tell me why I can't be where he is. I swore to share his joy and his pain, and I swear it all over again — you won’t harm him as long as I stand here!

Tarn

Hah. It’s come to this? So be it. It tears up my heart when I'm with you, anyway… Goodbye, Suzaku! Let’s go, Lecter! Rasha!

Suzaku

Give it up, you guys. This place is surrounded. This is the end for *BTSB.

Once Tarn, Lecter, Rasha and the present cultists are all apprehended, Suzaku promises to make things right together with Kaya and will soon contribute his own knowledge and talents for Lunatia as well. And so ends the *BTSB saga.

QUESTIONS

[prismods]

Re: QUESTIONS

[terribletwos]

How do the Moonblessed know kissing snaps victims out of the Dragons Discord trance? Is there an IC way this information is being shared? I ask because I am wondering if there will be IC incentive/motivation for characters who are less likely to default to kissing.

[beautifulbeast]

Player: mb
Contact: PMs, plurk @ goodluckstarfighter.

Character: Juno | beautifulbeast
Moonblessing: Cordis
Smut Preferences: Juno is 17. I don't mind her hooking up with anyone older however. I'm very open to heat of the moment type things, particularly for this event.

Log Plans:
* Going to buy right into that extreme fan thing, 100%. She'll gush about them, wag her tail over them and just generally fit right on in with the rest of the hypnotized girls. And then after she'll be unhappy to say the least.

* Either lock lips with Juno to shake her out of that hypnotizing song or heck, expect her to do it to you instead! It wouldn't be the first time she did some spur of the moment liplocking.

Contact: auste | auste#6731

Character: Kay Faraday | kayssistant
Moonblessing: Iris
Smut Preferences: N/A
Log Plans: I might top level with Kay going to the concert and dancing to My Favorite Prismagram Girl. She'll wind up getting into the fan battle royale, losing her voice and possibly getting affected by Lecter's and Rasha's voices as well. Then she'll go to the Nothing with the other Moon Knights, maybe see hallucinations of the criminals they've put behind bars before, and NOT like seeing the cultists again after they captured her once and turned her into a weird fox girl.

LMK if you want your character to help Kay out, fight alongside her, or shake her out of her hallucinations. Or something else.

Character: Charles-Henri Sanson | painalty
Moonblessing: Cordis
Smut Preferences: N/A
Log Plans: Not sure if I'll top level with Sanson or just throw him around because he's not really keeping up-to-date with *BTSB. He'll try to help folks who get affected by the voices, break up fights, and go to the Nothing. Like Kay, he doesn't have very good memories of this cult because his previous Master, Sakura, was kidnapped by them last year. I'm down for him hallucinating famous figures from his time as executioner...

...or hallucinating his decapitated girlfriend.

Sanson is again going to be a combat medic. Woo.

[battlefrenzy]

Perhaps Asami could help Kay out. She's headed to fight the Cult too bc f them.

- Rochelle isn't going to get diehard fan-hypnotized, but she'll be at the show with her news crew. She'll likely get hit by Dragon's Discord. If someone wants to ave her from getting Chroma-absorbed (either by mouth-covering or smooching), hit me up!!

- I'm debating on having her get affected by Rasha too, re: super-obsession. Hit me upx2 if you want to deal with her uncharacteristically hanging off your arm (most likely with a gun she had out prior to getting hypnotized) until she's complimented enough.

- Other than that, I don't want to put her through any Big Trauma this time since I've done it for the past two events already. Her post will probably be shenanigans unless I come up with something else.

Character: Naofumi Iwatani | resenting
Moonblessing: Iris
Smut Preferences: As usual, as a player I'm down but ICly he's a whole mess of trust issues with a dedicated partner. This can be discussed.

Log Plans: Naofumi will definitely join the charge to fight off the cult, in the end. He's had his fair share of dealings with an awful religous faction so what's one more? As for the concert itself, he's not really the type of fall under that kind of spell BUT I'm open to him potentially getting dragged there on someone else's behalf? Could make for amusing moments.


Character: Leon Kennedy | firstdayblues
Moonblessing: Sanguis
Smut Preferences: This one is much more DTF, though he's a slightly older character so the under 25 crowd probably isn't getting in without prior CR/justification.

Log Plans: He's going to grudgingly build more of a tolerance and enjoyment of the group as time goes on, though he'll justify it to himself as 'just a bit of nostalgia'. He very well might attend the concert Ironically, or with a friend. Later on he'll definitely be joining the fight against the cultists as well, that whole former-cop goverment agent energy wouldn't let him do anything less.

Moonblessing: Cordis
Smut Preferences: it's probably not happening this time, but cuddling and kissing are fine (even though he's still got some Fraught Feelings about the whole thing but like... if it's an emergency, then it's an emergency...)
Log Plans: ok well he's still a mess but he HAS been distracting himself with *BTSB and Kaya IS by far his favorite so

• Will I top level? idk
  
• he's being frugal rn but he at least bought a *BTSB notebook (so he could doodle "T.A. + K" and shit like that in it)
  
• he won't be at the concert in person but will probably be watching it on an outdoor screen somewhere, idk?? so he'll be affected by the catatonia (and, later, by Rasha's song). so please save and/or compliment him.
  
• he'll be participating in the mission to the Nothing and will probably see hallucinations of the Fanalis Corps slaughtering people (so if any redheads, beefcakes, or red-headed beefcakes want to accidentally terrify someone now is the time)
  
• ummmm that's it I guess??
  
• incidentally, he will now and forever feel a sense of kinship and trust with anyone else whose bias is/was Kaya

[afoolshope]

Minato has a pair of headphones to help prevent that catatonic reaction if you’d like? He’s only got the one pair on him so he’ll be exposed but it’s for a good cause if it’s to help someone else!

Smut Preferences: Keep in mind that she's still a virgin (and 21 for anyone who has preference for older), but 18+ and f/m for this (for now), if it comes up for whatever reason. Kinklist is over yonder though!
Log Plans:

- While LB isn't a mega fan or anything, she'll be curiously watching from one of the bigger screens around town (and doing her best to try to stay away from you crazy ass diehards, hot damn)! I'm totally up for needing kisses, whether she's the one that needs it, or I don't think she'd have too much of a problem being a kisser either, really.

-Not 100% certain if it needs to be a prompt for her, but if anyone wants to do it, I'm down for her muscles cramping up and needing to be carried around or something! Give her that lacing.

- While the LIFE suits sadly eliminate the possibility of using her Octopus suit, she hates cults soooooooo much that she'll even go without her newly fixed tentacles just to scout out the hideouts for her own intel. She has a GUN, so she won't be completely useless, okay! LB will likely prefer to hang back, though, and probably try to follow people that seem more capable in battle than she is. So, if you want someone to be in awe about how cool your character is, SHE'S YOUR GIRL.

- Also, if your character gets in a bind, she can maybe sneak from behind and try to hug a cultist to death (no really, she can give lethal hugs... don't ask) and your character can maybe be like "LB, NO!!!" or "LB, YES!!!", I'm not very picky. For this event, she can also be the person to bring your dude back to their senses (hallucinations would NOT result well for her at this point).

i’m down for some lethal hugs and also beating ass together

❄️ weiss will be watching the concert in her own apartment, so she'll be clueless to the going-ons at the venue itself. i'd like for her to lose her voice though, panic in turn, and go around the city with speech to text and she can't change the setting of the voice from boy band.
❄️ she'll be at the scene of the concert a little after losing her voice bc it looks like moon knights are needed there! someone demand compliments from her while she can't talk OR SOMETHING... LMAO
❄️ she'll be travelling to the nothing!! if anyone would like to do co-op fight threads or smth, then this is an opportune moment!
❄️ weiss is going to end up hallucinating seeing and hearing the apathy. a warning that the link leads to smth creepy!! so she won't be able to move much 'til she's back to her senses.

♟ a little unrelated to the event, but lelouch would want to try and use his geass on someone! he'd be either commanding them to a) hold his hand at least once every two days to give him chroma, or b) buy notebooks and calendars and other stationary of btsb for him. if it means the other chars nuts just to get lelouch some boyband merch, then great.
♟ regardless of whether or not anyone takes up the previous offer for geass, lelouch will be decorating his apartment with *btsb merch!! i'd love for people to either help him carry stuff into his apartment or help him decorate his room and make it look like a 13 year old's.
♟ he will be watching the concert!! to support!! suzaku!! (hypnotised, he ends up stanning someone with an ugly name.) he'll figure out what's happening with the dragon's discord quickly, and will... attempt to help people nearby. make lulu smooch your character?!
♟ HE IS ALREADY SO WEAK... but being affected by lecter's voice will turn his limbs into jelly. please carry him home.
♟ no travelling to the nothing since he is physically and mentally not prepared!! this would have been a good opportunity for zero, but that will wait for next time! IN ANY CASE, with the *btsb stuff going down, he's going to sell off the merchandise he owns, except for the stationary bc he needs those. he'll be holding a garage sale!! please buy his suzaku bodypillow. or help him sell it, for the love of god.

(i also have samatoki aohitsugi coasts, but he'll be sitting out of this event!)

[painalty]

I'm not sure what I want to do with Weiss because I want a lot of that alskdfjkal we could do a fight thread, Weiss uses her glyphs on Sanson or something, or she can shake him to get him to compliment her, or tell him about the apathy.

As for Lelouch, I want Kay to help him carry stuff into his apartment and decorate it and she'll get all up in his business and chat his ears off

Character: Ferran Gallagher | noblegarnet
Moonblessing: Iris
Smut Preferences: No thank you! Flirting/romance/kissing is fine, but he'll be embarrassed about it. Ferran just recently turned 18, as a note!
Log Plans: Ferran isn't deliberately keeping up with the band, but it's pretty impossible to ignore them so he'll get caught up in some shenanigans and eventually get involved when things take a turn. I'm looking to write up at least a couple of toplevel prompts! Some concrete ideas are:

• dealing with hypnotized merch-seekers,
  
• affected by Dragon's Discord and/or Lecter's song
  
• hesitating when trying to fight Actual People at the cult base
  
• caught in a hallucination where he will probably lash out

and I'm open to other ideas if anyone wants anything specific! Not that uh he's met many people yet but you know. If anyone would like a magical boy with charming and copying powers and a lot of self worth issues, I'm here to provide! You can check out more information about him and my preferences over here.

[comesaround]

Those look like such good, solid prompts! I'm totally down for Karma either being around to help him out from maybe the Dragon's Discord or maybe even being the one who could be the one Ferran lashes out at amidst his hallucination?

He loves to embarrass people and the more flustered they get, the better so I think it'd be interesting to have them interact :D

He'll have some mind-control, some helping people... probably going to get him hit with Lecter's music or whathaveyou. He's going to be so Done with this shit, but on the other hand the music-inspired nature is going to confirm his suspicions that this is all a simulation, so that's fun.

Hit me up if you want anything for either of them! Or just tags in general, I'll hit up top-levels as I can. Also I love boy bands so I'm going to use as many Backstreet Boys lyrics as I can for this event, I'm not sorry.

Character: Ren Suzugamori | thedarkbond
Moonblessing: Sanguis
Smut Preferences: Kinklist here, Ren's 24, OTA in terms of gender and generally needs to have met someone at least once before he'll smut with them since he likes to have an idea of who he's dealing with.
Log Plans: Not entirely sure yet whether I'll be TLing or just tagging out, but at a glance:
-Ren's fairly immune to mental fuckery due to his own powers, so while he'll probably start wearing earplugs in public just to make sure he doesn't get tangled up in all the fan mess, I'm debating whether to have him show up at the concert once things get weird so he can help out.
-He'll definitely be going on the trip to the Nothing because boy does he hate the Sinless, so if anyone wants a fight thread with Ren in no mercy mode, that'll be the time for it considering he still has kind of a grudge against them for the kidnappings last year. He'll be able to help out with the hallucinations since, as I mentioned, Ren's resilient against that sort of stuff due to his own powers.

Feel free to hit me up to plot more specific stuff, since most of my plans for this event are pretty fast and loose so far!

[amemoryorus]

Yo it's been awhile, but I'd love the chance to revive this CR.

I'm thinking either Ren can help her out at the concert (if he ends up coming) when she get's hit by Lecter's voice or they can run into each other at the Nothing and team-up or help each other out. Tifa will be getting hit with some hallucinations of monsters from her world.

Log Plans:
-Not really planning to post a log, but I will be tagging out. He's not much for the band stuff, but he's helped fight the sinless before and he'll probably join on the trip to the Nothing.
-Fight threads? Rescues? I'm game.
-Likewise completely down with hallucinations and breaking people out of them/Atsushi getting caught up in one and needing saving, because Atsushi's unfortunately very familiar with seeing things that aren't there.

Smut Preferences: Kinklist! f/m for her IC preference. Open to heat at the moment kind of situation.
Log Plans:

- Suzuka's gonna be a wild fan and she will get those merchs of Kaya, damn it. She'll get into fan fights.
- She is going to the concert and have a wild fun time there (spoilers; she won't). She'll lose her voice, and be affected by either Lecter's or Rasha's voice.
- Her previous encounter with the Sinless annoyed her, and now she's going to stab any and all Sinless cult member in her path and generally be in Kill Them All mode. So she'll definitely go to the Nothing and maybe see hallucinations of her first boyfriend, so she's definitely gonna be so mad post-event.

Character: Soundwave | peacewithouttyranny
Moonblessing: Iris
Smut Preferences: Kinklist Won't go farther than grinding and light kissing with someone he just met, anyone who he met at least once and has positive interaction with. His avatar's around 20, physically.
Log Plans:

- Soundwave can protect himself from any mental fuckery thanks to his empath powers, but he'll be watching all the mess from the distance and be weirded out with how crazy fans are about the boyband. He might show up at the concert with the incentive of him being suspicious of the band.
- He'll figure out quickly enough what's happening with The Dragon’s Discord and try to help anyone nearby. Also help anyone who's affected by the voices. too.
- He'll be participating in the mission to the Nothing, and again he has resistance to hallucination, so he'll be able to help out others who may be affected.

• marianne is new and so likely won't be going ham on buying merch, but she will definitely be browsing and may buy some stationery and a plushie or two... they're cute ok. she's shy but please rope her into an impromptu musical number! girl can dance with the best of them and is decent at singing she just needs to get out there more
  
• she'll likely give up her merch to other more diehard fans though so feel free to take, or if you're the victim of someone going a little too wild, she can help out! marianne is a healer/magic user/fighter in general so she won't hesitate to help someone in need.
  
• she will be watching the concert at home with her roommates so she won't be there when shit hits the fan but! she'll venture out after it's done to check on people/make sure the cats at the cat cafe are safe... related to the previous point, she can come to you if you're stuck in a bind! come one come all, get your heal spells here
  
• passing on travelling to the nothing but she'll pray for u. jk she Will Not let anyone go alone, especially if you're someone she knows so, like. team up time, let's go. i'm so bad at fight threads but we'll figure it out lmfkjalsd
  
• always down for doing aftermath stuff! whether it's related to the btsb fallout or just general stuff is all good with me!

i'm debating on whether or not to top level, but i can slide her anyone's way! if you'd like a closed starter, hit me up and i'll throw something together for us! im easy and anything is pretty much fair game. same goes for elmott/heater but i won't be topleveling with him this event.

Character: Ryuuga Banjou | polypeptide
Moonblessing: Sanguis
Smut Preferences: N/A for this one
Log Plans:

- Ryuuga is going to learn to tolerate the songs at best, he might end up humming some of them to himself before things go south, but largely he'll tune them out and not become a diehard fan.
- He will absolutely get caught up in the crowd outside as a bystander, and try to break up some of the fights he sees happening.
- If anyone wants a non-kiss option he will absolutely slap his hand over someone's mouth to keep their Chroma from being stolen!
- And he's 100% going to be going after the cultist for a fight at the end!

Moonblessing: iris!
Smut Preferences: if a thread happens to head in that direction, i can roll with it! she's 23, perms, etc are here
Log Plans: i don't think i'll be top-leveling, but since i died last month i WILL be tagging around! or i can hit up inboxes with starters if you're also not top-leveling? idk, y'all, i'm easy. but let's see here...

• merch! whew! hilda does like to shop, so hilda will be picking up some swag... i'm a-okay with dumb catfights over who's the hottest idol, but hilda really does like to sing and dance, SO! let her pull your character into a wild and saucy number! if your character is both unaffected by the merch and is NOT the type for such a public display of foolishness, all the better.
• she's watching most of the concert from the safety of her (re: lorenz's) apartment with her pals, but afterward she might go poke about the city to see what's up. if your character is not at the concert, but IS feelin some type of effect, may i present: hilda. she's very, very good at giving compliments, so let me just point to that prompt in particular!
• she could be convinced to come along to the sinless base, and thus she could be convinced to fight... but it might be an uphill battle??? she's lazy, and she'd be reluctant to go without her pals dragging her into it, but where there's a will, there's a way.
• y'all want to do something stupid? something that maybe isn't event-related, or deals with the aftermath OF the event? i'm here to provide. come chat with me and i can set something up, because hilda is easy to throw into just about everything!!

Player: Wind
Contact: shogunsensual

Character: Kamui | foeyay
Moonblessing: Sanguis
Smut Preferences: Probably not gonna happen this early. Kamui just got here, and he's gonna need to starve for chroma a bit before he throws himself headfirst into it. Just in case, I do have a permissions/opt-out post here though.
Log Plans: Looking to top level since this is his first event.

➛ Kamui sharing his "love" tends to involve property damage! He won't be fighting over merch, but he might just want to "dance" with your character. Which would more or less equate to throwing your character around like a prop while he sings into his parasol.
➛ He is absolutely going to leap into the battle royale without even knowing what everyone is fighting over. He'll be going all out too, so if you want to play out a big time fight or get your character seriously injured, I'm here for you.
➛ Because he gets so into the battle royale, he'll end up at the concert even though he didn't buy tickets! He'll be losing his voice if no one wants to smooch him. But rather than be upset, he'll be super stoked that the band just attacked the audience. If this is what musical concerts are like here on Prismatica, he wants more.
➛ He'll hear about the rest secondhand because he really doesn't care about their infighting. He just wants more band battles. Someone please tell him band battles are real, or he is going to make them real himself.

Character: claude von riegan | deerhearted
Moonblessing: iris!
Smut Preferences: prooobably gonna pass for this event since he's new!
Log Plans: probably not gonna top-level? that's still kind of up in the air but i definitely will toss claude anyone's way!

🏹 merch stuff! honestly he'll probably buy some ( a notebook or something ) but will give any merch up if someone wants it. karaoke duets? that might happen, sometimes you just have a song in your heart! feel free to get pulled in an impromptu song and dance with claude here.

🏹 so since the golden deer decided to crash at lorenz's place and live there forever, they'll be watching the concert from the safety of a couch that's way too small for them. he's also gonna go ahead and poke around the city to help anyone who's feeling the effects of either voice.

🏹 probably will go to the nothing just to help out? i mean, if you wanna go with someone who has definitely fought a cult-like group before, claude's your guy! i'm not super good at fight threads but this is definitely something i can do if someone really wants to! he can also shake anyone out of their hallucinations if needed!

🏹 aftermath stuff? aftermath stuff! claude's going to have a LOT of questions about what the hell just happened so feel free to sit down and be his latest victim or poking and prodding for info. with claude being new, i'm also up for non-event stuff, just toss a message my way!

[condolences]

listen i already said this in chat but if claude is going to take down the cult, marianne is going with him. #rideanddie
but also... impromptu musical number time would be really cute too

Character: Konoka Konoe | im_gonna_heal_u
Moonblessing: Iris
Smut Preferences: Konoka's 19 and leans women, but she won't say no to a nice enough dude. However, this applies to The Right Stuff event only, once she snaps out of it she'll be too focused on setting things right.
Log Plans:
- Did somebody say hypnotized? Konoka is most unfortunately a collector and that means getting suckered into listening into that catchy tune that won't leave her head until she's obsessed with merchandise, singing, and getting horny at the drop of the hat.
- She'll snap out of it right about the time the concert begins. I'd like for someone to help her snap out of it, but recognizing the Dragon should do the trick.
- She'll largely be playing support if your character needs backup during any fights! She'll also heal you if you need it.
- She picked both Suzaku and Tarn, so basically their falling out is going to break her heart, even if she recognizes that it was for the best.

That's it here!

[have_hat_will_travel]

Pidonus recognizing that Konoka's been hypnotized, and not able to do much about it other than possibly using her own powers to try and keep some lid on the situation, could definitely have some influence.

I'm not planning for Pidonus to be at the concert, but she might drag Konoka away from the ticket brawl, then they go watch it and Pidonus helps snap Konoka out of it? (Bad news: Pidonus is going to end up in self-worship trance. Good news: She at least isn't going to be trying to enspell others into worshipping her!)

Smut Preferences: icly, fuck you for even suggesting it, but oocly, bring it on if it gets to that considering the circumstances. haven't finished my prisma-specific kinklist, but my f-list is here.
Log Plans: it might be his first event but that doesn't mean i'm gonna go easy on him.

-he doesn't have his playlists with him so despite being annoyed by the boy band shit at first, eventually he's gonna get Into It. a lot. he's too new and not into the whole human contact thing to actually have much to spend on merch, thankfully, but he will absolutely be sporting a *btsb shirt instead of the flight suit he came in with.
-there will be dancing.
-there will be so much dancing.
-he's not going to the concert itself, not even magical hypnotic boy band jamming is going to make him want to hang out that close to people, but he'll likely be watching it from somewhere outside anyway.
-he's noooot going to fight the band, fuck that. he doesn't have any of his robots for that and while he can totally throw a guy if he needs to... nope. you guys go do that, have fun. he's just gonna be EXTREMELY PISSED about the fact that he got caught up in that at all. guy needs a new earworm.

so yeah hit me up for whatever, i am down.

Character: Hisoka | nobodylikeshim
Moonblessing: Cordis
Smut Preferences: Kinklist and OPT OUT
Log Plans:
- Hisoka enjoys anything that seems "fun," so he'll become a die-hard fan for certain. He'll not be too happy when he snaps out of it, of course.
- Which means that he'll definitely be joining in to help do big murders, er, subjugation of the cult. :T
- There most likely won't be a top level but he'll poke around a few places, buh-dum-chh.

Character: Sesshomaru | fashionicon
Moonblessing: Sanguis
Smut Preferences: None. He's pretty asexual/aromantic.
Log Plans:
- He tends to stay by himself; he doesn't like jaunty tunes (and you know what, he'll call it that) and find earplugs for himself.
- He might hit a person to snap them out of what is going on. :T
- Ah, he might bring himself to help out more than that if he feels like he has to.
- Another that probably won't be top-leveling but be hitting few people up.

Character: Fukuda | onehole
Moonblessing: Iris
Smut Preferences: Kinklist.
Log Plans:
- Going to be hitting the mod question, but anyway, Fukuda's missing a portion of his brain and wonder how that'll affect the hypnosis. More when I figure that out.
- He'll figure out something is going on relatively quickly but will say the equivalent of jack and shit about it.
- He's here to help people and give a healing kiss, and act surprised about stuff. :T
- No, he isn't going to go hunt anyone down unless someone asks him to, then he might. But it's not the best idea to bring him places. (laughs)

Sesshomaaaruuu~

Is he going to be going to the Nothing? I'd love for him and Tifa to either team up or maybe for him to knock her out of some hallucinations.

Character: Dick Gumshoe | trenchdoting
Moonblessing: Iris
Smut Preferences: Not looking for smut currently, still open to nsfw elements (especially comedic) in threads and moonlacing without leading to full-on sex.
Log Plans: Plans are a bit loose so far. Intending to make a log but not completely set on it yet.

- Gumshoe will admire the band and specifically be a Kaya stan, but I don't think I'll play with him being full-on hypnotized (nor that white note). Karaoke is still possible.
- During the show, Gumshoe will be focused on crowd control outside the amphitheater, and others can help him try to stop the violent fans (or be a violent fan themselves?).
- Once the Moon Knights intervene at the concert, he will be among those trying to save others from the trance! He may try to find different ways to cover victims' lips, and any lip kisses will be for characters in their 20s and up only.
- He might be subject to Lecter and/or Rasha's vocal effects? I'm still mulling that over, but he's also still available for helping others who might be under those effects.
- Gumshoe will also be part of the raid in the Nothing! He can help others who are suffering from hallucinations and may experience some for himself.

Character: Malcolm Bright | prodigalmess
Moonblessing: Iris
Smut Preferences: M/F. But he's brand new and smut is unlikely to happen.
Log Plans:
‣ All of this boy band music? Thanks, he hates it. He'll be in his apartment listening to his jazz records loudly to try to drown out all of this bullshit. Feel free to come over if you need a musical reprieve.
‣ He has zero plans of attending this concert, but I'm fine with him getting swept up in the mass hysteria for tickets. He'll be trying to get out of there and he knows how to punch a bitch. He also has knife that he carries with him at all times, if it comes to that. If you'd like for him to help rescue your character, I'd be down for that too.
‣ What Malcolm IS here for though is crime and cults, so he'll be joining the Moon Knights to help track down the rogue boy band members. As far as hallucinations, he has those on his best days, so I'll probably hit him with images of his father, the biggest monster he knows.
‣ His permissions/opt out is here.

[gynvael]

if you want a grumpy monster hunter knocking on his door to tell him to turn his music the fuck down, i have...an offering.

Character: Pidonus Marasia | have_hat_will_travel
Moonblessing: Cordis
Smut Preferences: Kink List!
Log Plans:
- Pidonus, for once, is actually going to resist a hypnotic influence, which will probably cause her to panic as she tries to free others around her from the spell.
- This'll mean she's outside of the concert, and will be able to countersong against Dragon's Discord. Unfortunately, Rasha's voice is then going to put her into self-worship mode (though at least this time she won't be trying to magic other people up, she'll still try to glomp onto someone and make them compliment her).
- Naturally, she's going to try and join the effort to follow - unless someone convinces her to stop, perhaps? I'm particularly flexible on this part.
- Unrelated shenanigans potential?
