▶ EVENT.015
It is spring. The land along the edge of the Nothing is in full bloom, having reached radical amounts of plant growth in a short amount of time, likely resulting from recent events.
Beautiful wildflowers will be sprouting as far as the inner city, causing petals to cascade everywhere — roads, transportations, shops — as long as there’s a window, petals will fly in! Swiffy bots can be encountered throughout the streets, doing their best to clean them up.
The Viscosus Bees continue to produce massive amounts of honey, filling the city with a distressing number of hives. You and your loved ones may start developing an abnormal fear of buzzing noises. Those with a keen sense of smell might start getting sick of the sweet aroma. And with all of this honey, ants and other problems start coming in.
▶ Ooh, Dreamweaver, I Believe You Can Get Me through the Night

Aside from nasty ants, the fragrance will be attracting all kinds of creatures anywhere they can squeeze through. Large kite-sized butterflies can be found wafting through open areas sprinkling dust that makes you frantically sneeze or irritate your eyes. Python-sized worms will be coiling their way anywhere, including underneath your bed, and eating only one sock out of the pair.
Thankfully, the news programs are quick to announce how to deal with the new ecology.
▶ Gotta Catch ‘em All
05/27 - 05/30 | top
As more and more strange creatures appear and overwhelm the Moon Knights, Lunar Scientia is rushing to launch the prototype of their pest-catching device to deal with the infestation while cataloging them for further studies. They will be requesting for volunteers to clear up the area by using the Beastmaster Cube (B-Cube for short), a light-up cube that safely captures and stores creatures of all shapes and sizes. To activate the B-Cube, simply throw it against a target!
The objective is to clear out as many creatures as possible within the city as well as the edge areas of the Nothing. Any Moonblessed who choose to work near the Nothing are advised to stay vigilant. The notorious whitesnakes will be the largest threat to the area and will have to be taken care of quickly.
On the last day of the month, the B-Cube will receive a free software update which will release the affected Moonblessed from the cube’s effects and return them to normal.
▶ The Colour Out of Space
05/31 | top
To celebrate the many successes of the Moonblessed so far in helping to restore the Nothing, the Lunatian government will be holding a large-scale farmer’s market in Lunatia Square where anyone can sell and exhibit their homemade or home-grown goods.
Expect to find oversized vegetation, many of which have absorbed the traits of the Moonblessed around them through their Chroma. Apples may turn aqua to match your eyes, watermelons may have suspiciously hard abs, and potatoes may suddenly have leg and arm-like appendages. Even weirder is that some of the mutated produce tend to scream in a suspiciously familiar manner when you bite into them.
The freshest, most beautiful-looking crops may have additional effects when consumed in large amounts: the more you eat the crops which absorbed Moonblessed traits, the more you’ll discover yourself incredibly attracted to any Moonblessed with those traits. (e.g. eating aqua-colored apples will increase your fondness for those with aqua-colored eyes)
The important part is that all of the produce is still edible! Whether or not you wish to eat them is another matter...

A Though they appear adorable and docile, nuzzling you affectionately and making tiny “squee” sounds, of particular danger are the Dreamweavers. These small pixies like to play naughty tricks on people by spraying pixie dust on them that will cause you to spontaneously daydream.
As the daydream takes shape, a visible bubble will float away from your head broadcasting your visions of deep pleasure — either innocent or lewd — to all onlookers. Imagine yourself on candy hills, floating down a river of chocolate, or caught in the throes of passion with that person you have been thinking of confessing to.
The bubbles can be popped once discovered, but getting rid of the pixies is another matter altogether. To drive them off, Prismals recommend singing a song at them… badly.

The notorious whitesnakes will be the largest threat to the area and will have to be taken care of quickly.
B An unprecedented side effect of the B-Cube is its failure to differentiate Moonblessed from animals. What a gratuitous oversight! you might be thinking. This may cause Moonblessed to accidentally capture one another.
While trapped within the B-Cube, you will be in a dormant “sleeping” state and experience nothing of the outside world. Fortunately, there is a button to release you from your prison. Unfortunately, you will not be in the same state you were in before being sucked inside.
Instead, you will either be partially or fully transformed into your chosen Moonblessing and exhibit amplified Moonblessing traits. You will also become unquestionably loyal and submissive to the one who trapped you inside the cube, and you will grow protective of them, allowing yourself to be deployed to fight or do the hardest of errands at your new master’s request.
Lunar Scientia is already on the case. Until they release a fix for the bug, those who were captured by the B-Cube can expect to get in touch with their primitive side for a few days.
On the last day of the month, the B-Cube will receive a free software update which will release the affected Moonblessed from the cube’s effects and return them to normal.

The important part is that all of the produce is still edible! Whether or not you wish to eat them is another matter...
C In an effort to entice Prismals and Moonblessed alike, the Lunatian government will practically beg the ever-popular Moonblessed through all channels to come get a booth at the farmer's market for free and sell whatever they wish, provided that the items are personally grown or made by the Moonblessed. It’s a good chance to showcase your bartending, cooking, crafting, or gardening skills while raising profits and advertising your shop while you’re at it!
The other stipulation is that all items purchased through the farmer’s market can only be paid for with moonlacing rather than the Chroma or Demichroma you already have on hand. Yes, everyone will be bartering hugs and kisses for goods whether they like it or not.
For entertainment, they also welcome street performers to spice up the event. Come and entertain the guests for tips along with Amegaharan bards, dancers, and the occasional illusionist. Show off your talents, promote your business, and continue helping the Nothing prosper while you’re at it!
▶ NOTES
WILD CREATURES ▶ Unfortunately, due to their wild nature, they are not suitable to become pets. They cannot be tamed.
BEASTMASTER CUBE ▶ Kindly ask permission from players before using the B-Cube on their character. You can capture more than one Moonblessed as long as you have permission from the players. Those captured will remain in their master’s possession until the end of the month unless they end up captured by another master. Throwing a new B-Cube will overwrite and change the master.
FARMER'S MARKET ▶ As stated above, if your character wants to sell anything here, getting a booth is free. They can sell whatever is usually found at a farmer's market. They can also sell anything that isn't usually found at a farmer's market if they like to be contrary. It's a free city, and the locals love their Moonblessed.
BEASTMASTER CUBE ▶ Kindly ask permission from players before using the B-Cube on their character. You can capture more than one Moonblessed as long as you have permission from the players.

Orihime Inoue | Bleach
A1. Dreamweavers - In Defense of The Daydreamer
Orihime liked the pixies. She thought they were cute, and really, their antics were harmless. She kind of liked seeing what other people daydreamed about, and she wasn't a gossip so their secret hopes were safe with her. And if the daydream was somewhat on the embarrassing (and/or sexual side), she was only too happy to lie and say it was something else entirely ("You were enjoying the biggest bowl of ice cream I ever saw, with all kinds of flavors!" or "You were beating up a monster to save your friend, you were so cool!").
But if it seemed like a really pleasant situation, then she would politely wait until it seemed like a good moment for her to interrupt, giving the bubble one good solid poke to free the victim from the trance. Why not let people enjoy something nice for a while?
* * * * *
A2. Dreamweavers - Swept Up in a Fantasy
[As for Orihime herself, who used to be an avid daydreamer, her situation is almost always the same: eyes blank, head tilted back, mouth slightly open. Sometimes it's pretty obvious that she was caught running errands, holding a grocery list, holding the groceries that used to be on that list, sitting on a bench with a half-eaten pork bun in her hand.]
[But the dreams themselves, that's where they vary, and drastically so. Her most common daydream is some sort of strange action adventure scenario, usually with a friend she knows as they work together to defeat some nefarious cackling warlock/space emperor/demonic businessman. It might even be your character! The scenarios are wild, but tame, and sometimes Orihime starts laughing in her trance state. At least she's enjoying herself.]
[The more embarrassing dreams are the ones that tap into her secret curiosity, exposing things she'd otherwise be too ashamed to admit. What it would be like to kiss someone... Normally that person would be Ichigo, but there's a fair chance it's one of her male friends, especially if they ever met under a Sanguis moon where the lunar influence awoke more primal yearnings in her. It might be more than kissing, too, with the two falling onto the couch and ignoring the movie to let their hands explore one another instead, sweet and slow. Clothes might start to come off. If they do, what follows is fairly foggy, other than perhaps some distinctive sounds of passion and rhythmic motions. She would certainly hope someone would wake her before it gets to that point, or she might never come out of her apartment again.]
* * * * *
B1. B-Cubes - 2 B A Master!
[Okay. So. Apparently Orihime had a partner-pet, and that wasn't the strange sort of experience she was usually thrilled to enjoy. It's bad if it's someone she doesn't know, because it feels like they've been forced to like her without knowing anything about who she is, or that she's kind of a dork. It's worse if it's someone she does know because she absolutely never meant to put them in this kind of awkward submissive situation.]
[She'll try so hard to make sure they have a comfortable place to sleep on her sofa bed, and to make meals as normal as possible, but there's still a pretty good chance that they could wind up having to endure her weird culinary tastes. She cooks well, the food is never burned or mishandled. But the combination of flavors Orihime tends to like are...well, they're "unique."]
[If her new partner really insists on it, she'll be happy to train with them, and go out to fight whatever sort of pests and monsters are on their level. If things get bad, Orihime is willing to fight too. And heal. And maybe even spend some quality time really getting to talk to someone, learning about them, letting them learn about her too.]
* * * * *
B2. B-Cubes - Something's Fishy
[On the other hand... For whatever reason, something went wrong, and you're now the proud owner of a Magikarp! Or at least, that's pretty much the equivalent. If you're super unlucky, what you get is a beautiful large koi fish flopping helplessly on the ground, gasping for breath. Please put her in some water. If you're only the regular sort of unlucky, only Orihime's lower half goes the way of the koi, resulting in a mermaid tail of white, orange, and black. Unfortunately, unless you have some sort of water battle on hand, she's kind of useless, and she's very sorry about that.]
[Not willing to be a complete burden, she's more than willing to help with things that don't require her to use her legs. She can sew clothes, fold laundry, use her healing abilities to fix up her partner, or even just lean against someone for company and chroma.]
[Put her in a large body of water, however, and witness her sheer delight when she's able to breathe under the surface just fine, the way she always hoped she could since the first day she found out she was a Sanguis fish.]
* * * * *
C. Marketplace Bakery
[This is the perfect opportunity for Orihime to make a short-term attempt at trying out a job she's always wanted, but without requiring her to commit permanently. There are tons of careers she'd love to try, and it seems a shame to stick to only one, so an open bazaar where she can sell cakes, cookies, and other homemade sweets?]
[SHE IS THERE.]
[Her hair is tied back neatly with a thin yellow ribbon, and she's dressed herself neatly in a loose floral skirt and a pink short-sleeved blouse with a dark blue lily painted over the right breast pocket. A sunny daffodil-print apron is looped around her neck to protect her clothes from the various colors of icing and mousse she worked for days to prepare.]
[Expecting a decent turnout during morning hours, Orihime's morning spread primarily consists of berry-stuffed croissants, filled with a whipped chocolate cream. Those go fast, so only those ready to greet her in the first hour of the market's opening will be lucky enough to grab some. She has cakes set out at all hours, trying to keep a rotating variety available. Most are triple-layered and 9" in diameter in keeping with tradition, topped and filled with flavored mousse. Sometimes she sandwiches fresh fruit, chopped nuts, or chocolate chips as well.]
[Once the croissants are gone, it's time for the cookies and cupcakes to come out. Cookies may not be her specialty product (that would be anything cake-like), but she's still got several that aren't ordinarily found in the average bakery. There are the curiously green matcha mint cookies, the pink cherry chocolate chunk cookies, a more tame butterscotch oatmeal raisin, and because of course she can't do anything without a dash of fun, she's arranged several ninja-shaped sugar cookies on various stands to enact some sort of battle royale. Each ninja has a different colored icing for their garb, so there's a rainbow of options to choose from.]
[It's her cupcakes that she's the most proud of, however. Choose from vanilla or chocolate, topped with flavored whipped cream, and filled with either fresh preserves she made herself from some of the exotic fruits made available, or banana pudding. The top of each cupcake is decorated with a piece of fruit to make the filling obvious, such as a candied orange peel twist for the marmalade, a banana coin for the pudding, or a sweet plump berry. All of the cupcakes are decorated with flower-shaped sugar sprinkles, the paper cups featuring a variety of designs ranging from animal stripes to tiny robots.]
[She'll gladly accept a hug for payment, her embraces warm and genuine and delivered with a smile. Then she'll package up your purchase in a sunny yellow box with a blue six-petal flower stamped in the corner, similar to the hairpins she wears.]
[Just be careful, as some of those fruits used may cause the 'Color Out of Space' effects that would cause someone to be attracted to another person with similar physical traits.]
* * * * *
D. Color of Space Produce
[If someone is attracted to Orihime, it's 95% guaranteed that she won't notice unless it's followed up with some blatantly obvious flirting. She's naturally a friendly person and rarely suffers from shyness when it comes to meeting new people (the stranger the better!), or greeting the people she knows with a cheery wave and calling out their name.]
[If the reverse happens, and a Moonblessed happens to bear some physical traits that match some of the exotic fruits and vegetables she ate (and she absolutely wouldn't miss a chance to try as many as possible), only the truly astute would notice the telltale signs of her abrupt crush. She's just as friendly as she would be with anyone else, but a touch more attentive. She notices the person's scent, and little hints that they might be upset about something.]
[Most noticeable is how flustered she gets about little things, like offering to walk her home (and panicking to wave off the offer for fear that she's putting the person out), or spending time with her one-on-one. Orihime tends to get pretty bad tunnel vision once she starts crushing on someone, and this place being what it is...she might not realize when the effects of the produce have worn off, and continue to carry those secret feelings.]
[OOC: Orihime is 16, so please keep it to guys around her own age (flexible with ageless sorts that match her maturity level) for this one.]
