Monthly Post & CR Meme #22: Position Zero

MONTHLY POST

    Happy Valentine's, Dreamers! I won't be yappin much for this since we don't have any OOC updates since the most exciting part of this month's update is our first foray into a Disturbance for 2025! Just zoom on down to the event info & timeline and get caught up!





EVENT INFO & TIMELINE



    We've had a nice long break since our last major upset but you should all know by now that things in the Dream Sphere never stay quiet for too long. Once again, it's time to dive back into the Dream Sphere and rescue one of their own from a Disturbance!

    As a recap for those just joining us since our last event: Disturbances are surreal dreamscapes draw directly on the struggles, fears and emotions of a single character, similar to the TV world dungeons in Persona 4 or the Heartscapes in Blue Reflection Second Light. These large-scale dungeons will tie into the overarching plot of the game as we progress and must be tackled in order to prevent a negative outcome on both the Dream Sphere and Yumemigaoka itself. Scary stuff!

    In addition, Disturbances are unique among other Outlying Locations in that they vanish once resolved and incubate extremely powerful enemies at their core who must be defeated to save the person at its heart. This where BD's turn based mechanics come in! Disturbance boss battles are where our Boss Tier Combat system finally enters the picture and will require signups beforehand to help keep things organized. In this Disturbance, participants are capped at four Dreamers with at least one Experienced Dreamer with a Signature Move. We will also be prioritizing folks who were not picked or otherwise did not participate in the first dungeon's boss combat. Slots are otherwise open to as many Novices who would like to give things a try!

    Sign up with the form below – just fill it out and reply to the signups toplevel. If our signups exceed our number of slots, characters will be selected via RNG. Please be aware that if you are selected, you will be expected to be active and present during the event to ensure things can conclude!

    Signups will close on February 15th.

    EVENT TIMELINE

    ⧖ February 8th: A sudden and unseasonable spike in temperature will occur, taking Yumemigaoka's winter temperatures all the way up to 21-24C for the entirety of February.

    ⧖ February 9th: The moon cycle will apparently fall out of sync, with a huge and bright full moon hanging in a clear sky for the entirety of February.

    ⧖ February 10th: A series of earthquakes Asagi Ward and is followed shortly after by the DU publicly confirming to all Dreamers that they have confirmed the presence of a Disturbance manifestation and that Junna is suspected to be the cause. With no way of breaching it until it fully manifests, the DU warns that all Dreamers should be prepared to enter the Dream Sphere to dive in once it is fully stable.

    ⧖ February 18th: The Disturbance log will go up.

    ⧖ March 5th: The OOC deadline for Junna's rescue from the Dream Sphere.


    CR Planning Form:





WORLD UPDATES



    February should usually be a cold, wintery month and the first week or so does live up to that reputation - temperatures are low with a blustery wind battering the city on top of a pretty consistent dump of rain that only lets up in fits and spurts. The Asagiri River threatens to breach its banks but before any flooding disasters can occur, starting on the 8th and lasting for the rest of the month, the weather suddenly spikes to a shocking and unseasonable high of 24C. To make matters worse, things are still just as rainy as they were before so the month of February ends up miserably humid. Hooray! Two rainy seasons this year!!! (Nobody is happy about this).

    Over in the Dream Sphere, thankfully, everyone gets a reprieve from the summery high temperatures but the rain sure doesn't seem to be letting up. All of the locations that had previously frozen over during winter have finally thawed, with the Vale of Sorrow making up for lost time by flooding under the increased deluge. In addition, Fury Peak seems extra volatile this month with earthquakes and full-on volcanic eruptions happening so often that the dream is practically impossible to explore.

    !
    WORLD EVENTS

    ⧖ All Month: The DU issues a press release asking all Dreamers to refrain from non-essential travel to the Dream Sphere for their own safety.

    ⧖ February 1st-13th: With Valentine's Day coming up, Yumemigaoka is swept up in a chocolate fever! Stores all around the city will be stocking up and putting on sales for candy, chocolates, baking supplies and anything else a romantic heart could desire. This also means that, come the actual week of Valentine's, there will be a shortage on not just chocolate but also any of the ingredients that go into the homemade stuff.

    ⧖ February 3rd: It's Setsubun, the annual holiday for ushering out any remaining winter demons! Most major shrines in the city will be holding celebrations throughout the day with lots of fun food and games on hand for families. Out with the evil, in with the luck!

    ⧖ February 4th - March 5th: A small part of Asagi's southern quarter will be temporarily closed off to the public for the next month due to some unexpected sink holes opening up that need repairing. It's all for your own safety, of course, but what on earth is it gonna do to the traffic...

    ⧖ February 7th: Applications for the Yumemigaoka Language Program's Scholarship program ends today.

    ⧖ February 12th: National Founding Day is observed on this day. Enjoy a surprise day off!

    ⧖ February 14th: Happy Valentine's Day! Romance will be in the air as couples exchange chocolates and lovers profess their feelings. The more outgoing may have flowers and chocolates delivered to their love(s) or ask them out to an afternoon coffee date, but you may have to wait in line for a while! A majority of restaurants across the city will have increased reservations, so be sure to plan ahead for a great time out!

    ⧖ February 15th: Nightmare Bounty! Spurred on by feelings of intense jealousy and loneliness in the wake of Valentine's Day, a Nightmare taking the form of a towering, multi-armed monster will spawn in the Dream Sphere and need taking care of! This is a High Risk bounty open to all Dreamers and multiple groups of characters can tackle this challenge. As a reward, characters who successfully clear this bounty will receive double points on rewards associated with this Torment Hunt!

    ⧖ February 23rd: Another surprise day off! Since it's the Emperor's birthday, everyone else gets so enjoy themselves too.

    ⧖ February 27th: Isekai Chocolatier will be holding a sale to clear out their remaining Valentines Day stock. Get it while it's cheap!

Player Name: Luna
Contact: [plurk.com profile] Urameshi, starsugars @ Discord or PM this journal!
Introduction: Hello I am Luna and I am vibrating over the fact that we're getting Picture Perfect animated in two weeks AAAAAA

Character Name: Amane Yugi
Canon: Jibaku Shonen Hanako-kun

About: An awkward, introverted almost-high-schooler by daylight, and a goofy, mischievous gremlin Dreamer by moonlight! In his waking hours, he helps out at his family's old cafe-slash-flower shop in Moon Bunny Market, while carving out a bit of a name for himself as Dreamer Hanako in the Dream Sphere by going on numerous excursions and taking on new trainees! Up until last year, he had been trying to maintain a firm divide between his two identities, although his Disturbance rendered that all mostly moot, so! He's been starting to be a bit more candid about his Dreamer identity to folks, though he's probably not going to openly promote himself as one for many personal reasons OTL

Amane also has a heart condition that's kept him largely isolated growing up, which has left him sort of detached from his peers and fairly lonely-- although his cagey, cynical attitude about things (and just being a huge pain in the butt in the Dream Sphere) hasn't done him much favors either! Throw in a guilt complex about his twin brother getting lost in the Dream Sphere during their childhood (don't worry, Tsukasa's totally fine you guys), the effect his Disturbance had on the people he cares about, and his relative uselessness during recent events and he's just an absolute funbag worth of angst that he's maybe or maybe not been working through. (Heavier on the "not" side, sobs--)

Short Term & Long Term Plans: SO HOW ABOUT THAT DISTURBANCE, GUYS.....

This one is hitting Amane a lot harder than the others, since this is the first Disturbance involving somebody he's close to and won't be the last either, eeeeyyy, so he's going to be an absolute mess for a good chunk of the month OTL;; He may try to attempt a pre-Disturbance search with Lisa to find Junna before everything goes to shit (much like how Shinsha did last year with Amane's) but he's going to do his damn best once it fully manifests to get her out of there!!

... though that said, I'm not gonna sign him up for the Boss Combat thread since he's already been in two fights already (three if you count his own!!!) so he's just going to be regulated to the mid-boss fight instead and he's gonna hate it 8'''| WHY IS THIS PLACE COCK-BLOCKING HIM WHEN HE ACTUALLY WANTS TO FIGHT THE NIGHT TERROR FOR ONCE???

Disturbance stuff aside, I'm down to tackle the Valentine's Nightmare Bounty as well (because intense feelings of jealousy and loneliness?? CAN'T BE HIM) and mmmmaybe do some Valentine's adjacent threads if others are up for it?? Although he's probably not going to be all that enthusiastic about chocolate and stuff closer to the date thanks to Junna being missing, but 8'| why is February so cursed for him Camellia is also doing flower deliveries + a special chocolate menu item for the holiday (because the Halloween treats proved to be a success last year), so there's that too!

Desired CR:

✿ Always happy for more Dreamers to gradually befriend, team up with and/or get tired of his nonsense-- or on the flipside, frenemies, rivals or people who think he's just a pain in the ass!!!
✿ Fellow classmates/teachers at Promised Academy!! Especially now that classes have resumed and his brother is officially a student there now, so 8'| He's not the one crawling into vents, honest--
✿ Customers or people who might frequent at his family's shop, Camellia! It's kind of an old and out of the way place in the market, but they have cute plants and a nice quiet place to drink coffee and vibe!
✿ And to that effect, more employees would also be great! HELP THEM DELIVER ALL OF THESE VALENTINE'S FLOWERS, THERE'S SO MANY

Anything Else?:



Next few months are gonna be Great, folks 8)

AMANE BUDDY T_T She's gonna feel so bad.

But also yes. >:) She will definitely want to talk to him after the Disturbance!

The Night Terror is also gonna occasionally be talking later in the Disturbance so Amane might get a chance to... say hi... without fighting?

[personal profile] hanamane 2025-02-05 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
IT'S FINE... IT'S HIS KARMA FOR THE SHIT HE PULLED LAST YEAR, PROBABLY

You bet your ass he is going to want to talk to her post-Disturbance as well, though!!!! He's going to be upset with himself for missing the signs of her struggle and not being able to help her through all of this as her Mentor (even though he's like... 15, so there's barely anything he can do but STILL)

But somewhere in the Disturbance the Night Terror is just going to hear him screech "THIS ISN'T WHAT I MEANT WHEN I SAID YOU COULD HELP CRIMSON COME TO HER SENSES, SAGEY!!!!!"

Everyone gets a turn in trauma land!!

And awww buddy. She's gonna feel bad... partly because she didn't reach out to say "oh god actually I'm drowning" until it happened and partially because. I mean. That's what Junna does.

Also LISTEN it's fine she just has to also help her childhood hero, be in the play, make her parents happy, graduate, become a professional Dreamer, and AAAAAAAAAH

Junna Hoshimi | Dreamer Sage

[personal profile] thestarknows 2025-02-05 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Tex
Contact: I'm on the game's Discord!
Introduction: Perpetually tired person who loves JRPGs (Persona 5, lately!) and anime (Dandadan! Though I also did Arcane recently). And it's Junna's Disturbance month and I'm SUPER EXCITED Y'ALL. :>

Character Name: Junna Hoshimi
Canon: Revue Starlight, and I'm about to hit everyone with so. much. Revstar-isms. buckle up!!

About: Junna Hoshimi, also known as Dreamer Sage, is a third year at Promised Morning! She's friendly and dutiful, and sometimes serious to a fault. She wants to be a professional Dreamer, but she also loves theater and acting. She was trying to balance both... but that recently came to a head, and she is in some SERIOUS TROUBLE.

Short Term & Long Term Plans: So first up: DISTURBANCE TIME. I am looking forward to all of the threads and RP and more!

I wanna do some lead-up to it; a big inciting incident is Junna having a fight with her folks before she gets pulled into it. I'm going to do a thing for text messages she's shooting off with people she knows until she gets yanked into the Disturbance. So if you want to have a text message thread that ends Spookily, please let me know!

Long term stuff... well, I wanna see how that goes!! But I want to do a lot of follow-up, suffice to say!

Also: I am gonna try to wrap outstanding threads up by February 13 (besides the texts and other Disturbance set-up, of course!). I'm out of town through February 16, and I want a clear-ish slate for the Disturbance.

Desired CR: OH BOY HER CR IS IN FOR A TIME. But seriously yes, let me know!! I'd love to get in stuff even if OBVIOUSLY, this month, it'll be... a little tense.

And if you need help on the Disturbance, hit me up!

Anything Else?:

[personal profile] thestarknows 2025-02-05 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
YES. She's gonna text people after a bad fight, clearly distraught, and then Suddenly, Disturbance.

I'm sure it's fine!!
hanamane: (✿ 246)

[personal profile] hanamane 2025-02-05 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
TOTALLY FINE.... AND NOTHING TO BE CONCERNED WITH AT ALL

but also this will be the moment Amane realizes he has zero clue where she lives/where to find her so he's just going to internally panic because he doesn't know what to do.... OOPS
thestarknows: (⭐ 015)

[personal profile] thestarknows 2025-02-05 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
OH NO

She just...never mentioned because it's...the dorms and she's like "well that's probably easy for people to find me."

Junna doesn't always think things through.
hanamane: @phaiinein (✿ 289)

[personal profile] hanamane 2025-02-05 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
TO BE FAIR... Amane's had zero reason to go to the dorms himself in the past because he was dumb and avoided Dreamer-heavy locations like the plague pre-Disturbance, so like

that's on him too

this is probably why he's her Mentor

Player Name: Salsa
Contact: [plurk.com profile] eternities and in the Discord server; I tend to do plotting (and commentary) on Plurk unless directly engaged on Discord, so add me there if you want a little more information on my bad ideas
Introduction: Retail Hell associate. Magical girl and band girl appreciator; also a fan of games involving Cute Girls Doing Cute Things if we still use that genre descriptor, and also heavy JRPGs and visual novels - ask me about my new obsession, Heaven Burns Red. I got caught up applying to another game last month but I think I'm settled for the moment. Even if it's a hell of a month to ramp back up.

Character Name: Lisa Imai
Canon: BanG Dream! Girls Band Party

About: University freshman; Team Mom who went through some bullying in middle school and had a hard few years failing to deal with it properly. She's very good at outwardly playing her ideal, bubbly, caring, outgoing self, but it's masking some moderate insecurities that can cause her to react unexpectedly and show visible cracks in her facade. She's working on the worst of her emotional excesses, and it's showing, but it's also taking some time, and she tends to regress a little in times of crisis. Still, she's coming back stronger every time, so... she'll get there. Big into fashion and bright colors, so long as her mood's not bringing her down; makes her own clothing and accessories. Bakes cute and tasty sweets and gives them away freely; still stress bakes sometimes. Practicing her bass guitar again, and carries it when there's space on her shoulder beside her school bag. Trying not to gush over slash lean too much on her girlfriend, Junna. In the Dream Sphere, protects others with her starsand-filled bass as Dreamer Rhodonite. Signed on to a unit with Ai and Hibiki, though while the latter recovers from her Disturbance and gets used to her new powers, Rhodonite is picking up slots on teams as needed.

Short Term & Long Term Plans: Lisa's been in a good mood for the first month of the year, coming off her Christmas date with Junna and things... generally not going wrong? Last semester even turned out okay despite the brief break to fight Hibiki's inner demons. She also moved out of her parents' house in December and is in Karen's spare bedroom, and her mental state is quite a bit better as a result. So things are looking up!

That all lasts until the weather turns to spring and the person Lisa would want to spend it with is missing. As soon as she disappears, Rhodonite is going to spend every hour she can spare - and some she can't - in the Dream Sphere, searching for her most important person. As has happened a couple times before, expect her to turn a bit irritable and cynical, and to be unable to sit still for long periods. Also expect her music choices to be a bit less... pleasant. She'll be happy to charge into the Disturbance anytime someone needs her, but eventually she's going to be at risk of burnout and will probably need to be forced to take care of herself for a bit. In short, Lisa's put a little too much of her self-image in other people and is paying the price. Please help her out by giving her more people to temporarily shore up her personality with. Also please don't remind her her girlfriend is in a dream hellscape for Valentine's Day, it's. Going to sour her mood just a little. Obligation choco will be next month, thanks for your understanding.

While she's in the Dream Sphere anyways, Rhodonite can be talked into Hunts or maybe Excursions - anything that'll be a distraction when the Disturbance proper opens will slow down their rescue operation, so she'll be eager to clear out additional threats when she can't do anything else, and maybe luck into confirming the route or some other information. That includes event Hunts, as needed. She's also sitting on a small stack of points, so maybe she can bring a new power to bear while she's here?

Desired CR: [incoherent sob-screaming with no space to get a word in]
Once the weather changes to herald the Disturbance, Lisa is going to be more or less impossible to talk to reasonably. You're welcome to try and she'll appreciate it when the tunnel vision fades, but. Sorry about her. She's still in there and can be reasoned with, she's just going to be very, very, very stubborn about leaving, resting, going easy, or otherwise not going full aggro.

Anything Else?: Gacha Hell is a real place and I think I'm buying property in a nice community with a free three-star once a week.

Lisa baby :( Junna is going to feel SO BAD when this is all done. Especially about Valentine's Day, oh no.

I absolutely wanna stalk threads and such. Also, she can encounter some sad things in the Disturbance!!

And obviously when Junna gets back: so much follow-up!!

ETA: ALSO we should have Lisa text her right before she gets Disturbance'd.

Ahem. Yes, all kinds of cozy H/C fic talking through stuff once they drag her out. And I'm excited for things to go to hell while Lisa's in there. Aaaaand we'll just take White Day as a makeup day for Valentine's. It's a good thing this country has two of those, right? /panned

-ah, yeah, that's a good idea. She'd get there eventually when she sent a good morning message and didn't hear back, but...

And yes! They get White Day, still! A make up for it. Junna'll try to not beat herself up too much.

And yes!

[personal profile] traceofeffort 2025-02-05 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
Lisa is, like. I'm excited for her to hit all the bad stuff because it's just kind of her luck at this point, but also because her philosophy is that once she's hit rock bottom, there's nowhere to go but up. Once she's seen the worst, she knows what she's in for and she can protect both herself and Junna better. Not that. Junna needs her protection, but she's going to do it anyway, because what is this shield for if not to protect people?
thestarknows: (⭐ 105)

[personal profile] thestarknows 2025-02-05 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
Aw, Lisa... yeah, it'll help because while Junna trusts Lisa completely, it's still kind of hard for her to say things about how she feels overwhelmed, and a lot of other stuff. So Lisa seeing it will be an important push!

If... a painful one, because yeah.

And it's okay, even if she doesn't need the protection, she'd like it.

traceofeffort: (021)

[personal profile] traceofeffort 2025-02-05 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
I'm good for that! She won't care if it's futile; if it feels like there's even the tiniest chance it'd help, she's going to throw herself at the wall until it breaks (or she does).

...even through her rage she recognizes Amane is about as crushed as she is, mind, so. There's a chance she'll be a little better around him.

[personal profile] i_peace 2025-02-05 06:04 am (UTC)(link)
At first I was like "oh yeah, Keiwa would go with you for another pre-Disturbance search" because he did that back with Amane's too. They can make chocolates for their friends together afterwards or something.

Then I realized that Nikki would probably actively pick a fight with Lisa in the Dream Sphere to get her to work out the frustration (with the side of maybe knocking her out of the Dream Sphere because girl...) and like... Nikki no. I should probably ask Claire if that would even be doable, but like one wonders. This is the exact sort of stupid shit he'd do without explaining a thing. D|
traceofeffort: (003)

[personal profile] traceofeffort 2025-02-05 12:11 pm (UTC)(link)
God. He would and she'd fall for it. I like that plan... I don't see any reason it wouldn't work, but fair to check. Lisa is going to feel intensely betrayed in the moment and probably be pretty nasty. She'll see reason, though. Eventually.
i_peace: (Default)

[personal profile] i_peace 2025-02-05 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Luckily for her, Nikki's not the sort of person to take things personally. :D (We got the all clear btw!)

If not, she can always fall back on her CR with Keiwa. :O or also take her frustrations out on him. Unlike Nikki, Keiwa will just roll over and take it. (this is a bad thing LMAO)
traceofeffort: (018)

[personal profile] traceofeffort 2025-02-05 08:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, good. Then yes, I'll plan for this... either just before the Disturbance opens, or about halfway through it. Depending on how her and Amane's Excursion goes.

...she does understand Keiwa would just take it, and at that point she's just kicking a puppy. Even in The Worst Possible Mood she doesn't want that. She'll absolutely vent to him though.

Sure thing, boss! Just let me know and I'll go ahead and throw Nikki at her. :)

She's a better person than almost the entire cast of Geats fr fr. But he's here for her! o9 if you guys want an extra person to look for Junna, he's here for that too.

DOES JOAN NEED TO WAVE A FLAG ENCOURAGINGLY IN SOMEONE'S DIRECTION AND/OR PROVIDE EMOTIONAL SUPPORT

Lisa will absolutely accept emotional support or standard-waving, although how much it'll help at the moment will be. Debatable. she will also accept active combat support

She's going to feel a little bad about crying all over all her friends, but. Needs must, at the moment, before she creates a nested Disturbance and gets them all killed or something.

It's always Jeannette that Lisa's a weepy mess all over, huh? Too much depresso, not enough glory. The proper authorities have been notified.

Nikki Aoyama | Sonic the Hedgehog

[personal profile] greaterspeed 2025-02-05 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Kuu
Contact: PM the journal or find me on discord
Introduction:

Character Name: Nicholas 'Nikki' Aoyama
Canon: Sonic the Hedgehog

About: He's Sonic the Hedgehog. Shitposter extraordinaire, naturally draws aggro because the only thing that runs faster than his feet is his smart mouth. Confident, self-assured, free spirited and totally wild. Do you need a friend? No? Too bad, everyone needs a friend so you're stuck with him now.

Both in the waking world and in the Dream Sphere, his personality is the same though his appearance is... Rather different? His hair is the bright Sonic blue, his eyes are green, his outfit leans harder into ouji fashion with a punk flair. He has ears and a short tail you can't see under the trail of the bow on his back. Kind of shameless, loves running around the Dream Sphere like he loves running around the waking world.

Short Term & Long Term Plans: VIBES VIBES VIBES

For the record, due to Sonic being well... Sonic, he's basically banned from ever fighting a Night Terror. This is for my own sanity, because if he shows up in a structured fight, I'm going to have to figure out how to write this stupid shit. Is the plan to make Super Sonic totally broken? Yup, next upgrade he has he gets the boosting aura so he can do stuff like this.

But yes. Banned. B|

Desired CR: There is no desired CR, he will just be running into all of you instead. H E L P

Anything Else?: Live Reaction from Sonic about the above message...

Olruggio | Dreamer Torch

[personal profile] olruggio 2025-02-05 05:45 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name:Kuu
Contact:PM or Discord
Introduction: Y'all I keep forgetting to fill this out.

Character Name: Olruggio
Canon: Witch Hat Atelier

About: A sleep deprived man who's bad at deadlines and has a plethora of overworked artist problems. Rough on the outside, warm and snuggly on the inside, is good with kids but refuses to admit as much.

He's signed up with the Dreamer Union's Europe branch and is an Experienced Saver in the Dream Sphere and an often-in-high-demand graphic designer in the real world. He's actually known for architectural light features with a whimsical flare but his own projects tend to lean towards more practical effects; in Europe, one of his more famous installations is the light-up pathways leading into the DU's European headquarters.

In the Dream Sphere, he's a Saver whose spells focus on fire, both offensively and defensively. He was something of a prodigy in his youth, but an unfortunate Nightmare attack caused him to pivot from being a Striker to a Saver. He stays off the frontlines and tends to prefer helping other Dreamers as their support these days. His sandglass forms into a quill-like pen and a little handheld notebook. Contrary to his fire affinity, the sand in his sandglass is a deep blue.

Short Term & Long Term Plans: No real plans for short term CR, he's just vibing, working way too hard and not getting enough sleep. MAN REALLY THOUGHT FOR A HOT SECOND THAT HE FIXED HIS SLEEP SCHEDULE BY TRAVELLING HALFWAY ACROSS THE WORLD LOL

Long term... I don't foresee Olly having anything resembling a Disturbance himself, though I imagine that he'll probably end up on the periphery of a lot of them (kinda like Keiwa, tbh) by virtue of also being an overworked perfectionist who cares way too much. Except he's got his shit together somehow?!

Desired CR: Man, I'm just here.

Anything Else?: 'how has this place not completely fallen apart' Olruggio thinks as he witnesses the chaos happening in front of him...

Sakurai Keiwa | Dreamer Tycoon

[personal profile] i_peace 2025-02-05 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Kuu
Contact: PM this journal or find me on Discord!
Introduction: I'M HERE, I'M FILLING THIS OUT, don't get me started about Sonic or Kamen Rider because it'll just trigger an unskippable cutscene.

Character Name: Keiwa Sakurai
Canon: Kamen Rider Geats

About: Keiwa's motifs are tanukis, ninjas and the colour green. His hobby is volunteering, he lists cooking as one of his skills and his favourite food in the world is Tanuki Soba. His canon email address is 'keiwadayo'. When asked in an in-universe job interview what his personal goals are, he unironically answers "World Peace." When given an opportunity to write down what he desires most, he still writes down "World Peace." This is Keiwa in a nutshell.

Short Term & Long Term Plans: He doesn't have a super close relationship with Junna but he thinks of her as a friend nonetheless and will also join the group of people who feel bad that they missed warning signs though he'll be the first to admit that he has not clue what he could have done to help.

Long term... Don't worry about it. ;)

Desired CR:
Keiwa has a very meek and passive personality, which doesn't change from the waking world to the Dream sphere. He's happy to look out for people in the Dream Sphere, though he's got like... a 60:40 ratio of being a klutz vs being cool af because he's got no confidence in himself but he's actually decent in combat.

He's super considerate of other people and tries very hard to get along with everyone. Keiwa himself isn't super social but in a 1:1 relationship, he'll absolutely put in the legwork to make things work. So I wouldn't mind getting CR with more quiet, grumpy or condescending type characters. Before you ask, he does respect people's boundaries! But he'll still try to get along with/check up on you/make you homecooked food because he cares about people more than he should. 8(

Of course if you want to annoy him, that's fine too! Lad puts up with a lot, but he will (gently) call you out on your shit (eventually). He happily interacts with all character types in canon and I will also tag anything. The distant and aloof types, the energetic and cheerful types, the grumpy tsunderes, etc, idc and neither does Keiwa, c'mere so this Tanuki can make you a delicious bowl of soba.

Anything Else?: BTW did you know the main mooks/enemies in Geats are plant monsters? Now you do.

Player Name: Kino
Contact: On the discord, other links are on the bio in journal!
Introduction: between school, lack of a JJ update last month, and a completely different series snagging my brain and refusing to let go, my muse is TANKED rn. but apparently nade shows up a lot and even transforms in the JJ chapter for this month so hopefully that'll help but a rewatch may be in order gkhbdf (also said series taking my brain hostage may or may not also be giving me ideas for a new muse that i may or may not be already crafting a BD AU for sooooo)

Character Name: Nadeshiko/Nagihiko Fujisaki
Canon: Shugo Chara!

About: Closested genderfluid kid w/ only one Dreamer identity to match only one "side". Said side has a lil companion who is just as clueless as to why she exists as everyone else. no matter what, they act all put-together and calm and friendly but ngl there's A Lot goin on beneath the surface. but clearly they have more important things to worry abt rn and will constantly have more important things to worry abt Forever

Short Term & Long Term Plans: SOOOOO w/ The Thing happening this month. Fujisaki might have only met Junna briefly once, but hey now that's Nadeshiko's friend's GF!! so she's gonna be VERY focused on trying to help her deal w/ it bc she wants to help her friends if she can god dangit!!!

otherwise, before things get Bad, they'll prolly be snooping around for valentines stuff bc hey. World's Biggest Love-Life Snoop here. they want to know EVERYTHING and you can try but you CANNOT hide stuff like this from them. They Will Know.

Desired CR: honestly i kinda covered a lot of it in the prev section? but if anyone else has any specific ideas hmu. i'll be popping in for the disturbance toplevel once that goes up to so we can also wait till then!

Anything Else?: no new memes today. Look At Her Now
