Monthly Post & CR Meme #23: Dream Parade

MONTHLY POST

    Happy March, Dreamers! Congrats on Junna's successful rescue! We don't have a ton of OOC updates this time around but I will give everyone a little heads up about our anniversary event in May!

    As a reminder, May's anniversary event will represent a change in the world state going forward. Basically, we're going from season 1 of BD to season 2! Mechanically, May will be a large scale Disturbance event run by one of our players, so look forward to it!

    As one final heads up, I will be on vacation for the first two weeks of May! I'll still be available in the case of Dire Emergencies but expect some mod tasks to be on hold or slow going during that period of time.

And that's it for this month!




At the beginning of the month, an official communication from the DU goes out to all registered Dreamers.

    Once again, we extend our sincerest gratitude for your steadfast participation in addressing the latest Disturbance event. Your unwavering efforts in combating these phenomena are making a substantial difference, helping to prevent further adverse effects on the Waking World.

    We are pleased to confirm that the Dreamer at the center of this Disturbance, Junna Hoshimi, has been safely retrieved and returned to the Waking World. This outcome is thanks in no small part to the exceptional contributions of Dreamers La Pucelle, Torch, Chaosbringer, and Koi. The Dreamer Union remains in close contact with Hoshimi’s family and is actively organizing both immediate and ongoing support to assist them during this challenging time.

    Recent investigations have also highlighted a significant correlation between poor mental health and the formation of Disturbances. This discovery reinforces the importance of nurturing our well-being and relying on the strength of our community. We encourage every Dreamer to reach out, seek support when needed, and lean on one another as we continue to navigate the complexities of the Dream Sphere together.

    With deep appreciation for your commitment and the resilience you display every day, we stand confident that, united, no challenge is insurmountable.

    With regards,

    Chloe Yoshino
    Director of the Dreamer Union




EVENT INFO & TIMELINE



    The Dream Sphere always seems to have a quirky twist on traditional celebrations but this March, things have taken a downright bizarre turn! All across the realm, elaborate Hina doll displays have sprung up in unexpected places. And naturally, when Dreamers stop to admire these elaborate displays, the seemingly innocent dolls suddenly come to life as aggressive Torments!

    Observant Dreamers might notice something odd, though: one crucial doll is missing from these displays. And sure enough, while fending off the hostile Torments spawned from the displays, some lucky souls catch sight of a larger-than-life-sized Empress doll watching the proceedings from a distance. She seems harmless at first but make the mistake of approaching and it'll become clear... the Hina Empress is a full blown Nightmare, who'll vanish into a dizzying flash of stardust and leave a burst of hostile Torments in her wake!

    Tracking her down, however, is no easy feat - she could be lurking anywhere in the Dream Sphere, always a step ahead. And even when a group of determined Dreamers finally corners her, the fight is anything but a cakewalk; she moves with balletic precision, summoning swirling cherry blossom petals that cut deep and tangling her opponents with ribbons stronger than steel!

    While the battle is fierce for everyone, girls (and those who happen to consider themselves girl-adjacent, of course) find themselves oddly empowered during the fray. And if you manage to take her down, the Hina Empress accepts her defeat with an almost serene grace before disappearing into the ether. Was this all just some weird test of character or something...?!

    Tracking down the Hina Empress and picking a fight will call for a Torment Hunt, which should be submitted in the usual place - just make sure to note that it's an event hunt! Please also note that all event hunts this month are, by default, Medium Risk and above, so be sure you're prepared!

WORLD UPDATES



    March in Yumemigaoka should be the month when winter grudgingly gives way to spring, and for a brief moment, it even feels like warmer days are on the horizon. Temperatures are finally inching up, hinting at the promise of cherry blossoms and lazy afternoons in the park. But don’t get too comfortable - scattered showers are set to make your hanami plans a soggy, slapstick affair. And just when you think things couldn’t get any wetter, the forecast drops a real doozy - a massive typhoon is predicted to make landfall on March 29th. What a soggy start to the season!

    Over in the Dream Sphere, the situation is just as unpredictable. Places like Facet Lagoon, the Abandoned Dojo and Reflection Glades are showing hints of spring’s colors, but the whole Sphere is being by intermittent drizzles. Even the quieter dreams seem a little restless, as if unsettled by the impending typhoon and sure enough on the day it makes landfall, just about everywhere in the Dream Sphere is dumping rain too...

    !
    WORLD EVENTS

    ⧖ All Month: Cherry blossom season is predicted to start during the last week of March and all around the city, business are decorating and stocking sakura-themed snacks and goods to take advantage of the sudden influx of tourists that will likely be flocking to see the blossoms. If you're planning a hanami party, make sure you nab a good spot in advance!

    ⧖ March 1st: It's the first day of spring and Hina Flower Gardens are re-opening! They'll be having discounts on entry fees for the first week to celebrate and selling mountains of spring-themed goods.

    ⧖ March 3rd: Today is Hinamatsuri! Or Girls' Day, if you're so inclined. It's a day that celebrates and honors the girls of each household with tasty seasonal food and gorgeous displays of delicate crafted dolls. Make sure you spend it with a lovely girl you admire!

    ⧖ March 4th: The Yumemigaoka Language School's academic year starts today! Whether you're a scholarship student or you're paying your own way, do your best!

    ⧖ March 5th: Asagi's southern quarter is all opened up and back in business! Aren't things so much quieter without all that construction going on...

    ⧖ March 8th: Feeling peckish? Oozora Curry is celebrating the end of winter with an all-you-can-eat curry deal for a frankly absurd price of 3000 yen! Come eat until your stomach pops and enjoy some curry!

    ⧖ March 11th: Early typhoon warning...! Apparently, meteorologists are predicting a typhoon to hit Tohoku's east coast later this month but since it's still the earliest stages of the storm, the forecast may be subject to change.

    ⧖ March 15th - End of March: It's graduation season, so schools around the city will be bidding farewell to some of their students! Each school will be having their own graduation ceremony on certain days through the month and Promised Morning's will fall on March 17th.

    ⧖ March 14th - End of March: Zekkyo! Karaoke will be celebrating graduation season in its own way by giving out special discounts to freshly graduated high schoolers! They'll be giving drink and snack tokens to anyone who shows off their diploma, too. Go celebrate your first steps into adult life in style!

    !★! March 17th: There will be an unusual uptick in attempts to contact Dreamer Ai-Doll at the Dreamer Union from tabloid reporters and news channels, asking her to comment on a certain story... though the details seem vague for now. Wonder what that's about?

    ⧖ March 20th: Yumemigaoka Public Library is holding a book drive! They're having a little event at the end of the month to get people to clean out their homes and get rid of their old books in good condition by dropping them off at the library's drop box! Bring them in and you can get a little thank you card and stickers... but really, isn't the fuzzy good feels of doing good its own reward?

    ⧖ March 22nd: Hina Flower Gardens will be holding a hanami event where people will be able to come and view cherry blossoms on the garden's property while enjoying a bento and sipping hot sake. They have a handful of limited time sales for their various hanami snacks to be taken home!

    !★! March 24th: Bombshell drop. Out of seemingly nowhere, news channels and tabloids all up and down Japan are exposing an explosive scandal: that the DU's idol and everyone's favourite role model Dreamer Ai-Doll has been keeping a massive secret from the world for over ten years now; the existence of two children that Ai gave birth to in her teens. The DU is once again requested with floods of requests for comment and social media is, predictably, going absolutely apeshit over this revelation.

    ⧖ March 29th: Typhoon time...! The forecast has confirmed that the early warning from the other week was correct - a typhoon is going to make landfall on Tohoku's coast today! Thankfully, the storm only lasts a day or so at the most, but residents in Kihada, Asagi and Akabeni should expect rain and possible wind damage. Keep indoors and keep safe!

Junna Hoshimi | Dreamer Sage

[personal profile] thestarknows 2025-03-03 02:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Tex!
Contact: The Discord is best! I'm on there. I thought about Plurk but with Recent Events, I need to keep my social media use low for anxiety reasons. T_T
Introduction: Hi there, I'm Tex! I play a lot of JRPGs (still Persona 5 Royal, but Xenoblade X later this month!!) and watch anime. I've been on One Piece live action and Pokemon Horizons lately. Recent events in the US have me stressed, but BD has been a big source of joy during all that.

Character Name: Junna Hoshimi
Canon: Revue Starlight! If you saw her Disturbance, well, welcome to the nonsense!

About: Junna Hoshimi, AKA Dreamer Sage, is a girl who just got put through the ringer! She's a just-about-to-graduate senior at Promised Morning, an aspiring actress, and a future professional Dreamer. She is hardworking to a fault, as we've all just seen in extreme, though she's also friendly and mostly cheerful. Now, in the wake of the Disturbance, Junna has a few things to figure out about herself.

Short Term & Long Term Plans: Junna came through her Disturbance! At the start of the month... she's frankly a bit fragile and a bit of a wreck still. She put a lot of her self-worth into not troubling others, and she just troubled others a lot. She is on strict orders from the Dreamer Union to take March off and rest, and she's missing the first week of school too.

But, she'll get out more after that, and start trying to get her feet under her. This includes actually going to therapy. (Thanks, Zeke.) She is going to need to lean on friends and talk to people though... and there's some bigger questions with her parents and her life that she needs to figure out.

In short: doing a catch-all, and please come hit her up!!

Her play's getting pushed back by the typhoon, too; that'll be in April. (Also I could use a month between Disturbance and play.) But, it's something to look forward to!

She also needs to get the university situation figured out and living arrangements after graduation.

Desired CR: She's gonna need her people! After all of that, Junna's a bit of a mess and needs to talk things out. Sooooo.

Also, if you wanna follow-up with her after Disturbance, please let me know! I'm down for friends, people to butt heads with, and anything else. It's a good chance to get to know Junna better if you've wanted to. Since some of her issues sure are just out there now!

Anything Else?:

jeannette spends her march

1) at church (it is LENT this is EXCITING it is the HOLIEST TIME OF THE YEAR she CANNOT WAIT FOR EASTER MASS)

2) wrapped around the sad lesbians and refusing to believe junna is at fault for any of it because of course someone under pressure feels bad if they think they have to do it all themselves. they do not!

Oh yeah, Sonic's such an attention-hog that I forgor that Olruggio would probably want to follow up with Junna too.

Keiwa would also pass Junna a therapy tanuki, but alas, they are also Not Dreaming. u_u Nikki's not here, he's suspended from talking to the Girlfriends
