Un: Zodiac | Mid-Month Update

[kaisoumods]

WHO: Everyone!
WHERE: Libra App
WHEN: April 15th
WHAT: Zodiac Network Post
WARNINGS: None!

[We've reached the middle of April. By now, the folks who were trapped in their own personal dungeons have been rescued, and the peach has been recovered from Zodiac and destroyed. Undertown has gone back to normal, while Zodiac's been very quiet. The post begins like the previous one had, with notifications of peoples coming and goings]



Dante, Vergil, Nicholas, and Kara have joined the app. Say hi everyone!


Suzume and Diluc have left the app.

[The post then continues on as normal.]

Hello. Thank you for using the Libra App.

It's me again. Could you stop telling people I'm dead? I was just visiting my family out of state and I forgot to turn off the auto-post function, for crying out loud. Have none of you people ever heard of taking a vacation?

Anyway, I'm not sure what happened, but there's something going on with head honchos. They cancelled their big announcement and took the rest of the month off, citing that "they deeply regret their greed-filled actions and wish to take time to reflect". I was skeptical at first, but then they offered to increase everyone's pay and give us a better benefits package. There's even been talk of donating to charity, and not just for tax purposes. It's like all of board members had a change of heart.

Well, the surviving ones. Two of the board members died all of sudden. It was a pretty grisly way to go, black fluid started coming out of their eyes and then they keeled over. No one knows what happened, but it's got a lot of people freaked out. There's been sanitation crews and exorcisms all over the place.

Crap, I rambled. Anyway, Zodiac's going through some restructuring so if you don't hear from us for a bit that's why. And seriously you weirdos, stop saying I'm dead.


This post is sponsored by Victory Road Trainers. Get into shape using the help of animal companions!

[Well that was weird.

Anyway, Users will have the option to choose their own display names and user pics if they haven't already. If nothing is chosen, the app will use their real name and a quick photo taken of them from their camera's phone. Like always, there'll be no responses from Zodiac.

Note: Even if the event is over ICly, please feel free to continue backtagging the event logs for the month!]

right. it has its roots in a kind of divine discipline. i can even use it to heal a bit

naturally stuff that gets summoned out of the darkness is not welcome

[Welcome to JRPG logic.]

i am too. and i promise i'll be more careful next time!!! i thought i had this one in the bag, then i got there and the plans had changed from what i thought they were

[droptheious]

I guess that makes sense. Like..opposing forces kind of thing.

[Look, he can GET that, that sounds like the Sundrop and the Moonstone, that's logic he can absolutely work with.]

Thank you, I'd appreciate that. [Please don't die he loves you a lot :(] And yeah, Danny's was...pretty rough too. I'm really glad you gave me that staff. It came in really handy.

[thavnairian]

exactly!

[It's magic, we don't have to explain shit.]

believe me i got enough lecturing for a while

remember, it's just a staff. what's important is that YOU were there to use it and to help your friend

things had better settle down after this

[droptheious]

I have a feeling you'll probably have more yet.

[Sucks when people care about you, Amal!]

I'll remember. It was a help, not the source of my powers. Those were on me.

[Look at this lad learning to accept and at least party embrace his magic!]

Please. I'd take like, ONE week where nothing happens at this point.

[thavnairian]

oh that's a guarantee

[At least he's aware of how much of a troublemaker he is.]

yes exactly!!!! you're getting stronger in your magic and that's really good. practice makes perfect after all

i'd take a week too and i don't even like being bedridden. just a week of rest. i'll do it and i won't even complain about being bored

[droptheious]

If you've have told me that a year ago I probably would have pitched a fit about it.

[MAGIC and him willingly using it, much less him getting GOOD at it. But here they are. Times have changed. ]

Seriously, just one week where we can walk around and not dodge whatever chaos is reigning down on us that month.

...You'd complain within an hour, Amal.

[thavnairian]

a lot can change in a year

[Varian certainly has.]

just one week of peace..........

hey, i can go an hour without complaining!!!

a day might be pushing it though

[droptheious]

Yeah, it really can.

[He's aware, he's not quite at a place he can be proud of himself yet for it, but he's working on it. He can, at least, tell he's growing up a little. Baby steps!]

A day would definitely be pushing it. An hour would depend on if you had something to distract yourself with at the same time.

[He doesn't SAY "something shiny" but he's thinking it REAL hard.]

[thavnairian]

[Varian, that's unfair.

Even if it's true.]

i can think of a few ways

i've been really into some cooking shows lately

[droptheious]

[Would Amal expect anything less at this point?]

There's some really cool ones I've noticed. I like the one where they make the really fancy cakes.

[thavnairian]

i love that one!!! it always makes me so hungry though...

i like watching the angry guy redo the restaurants. the angry guy is just funny no matter what show it is, he has a few

[droptheious]

Me too, some of them are so delicious-looking.

He's SO much fun! Did you see the one where he called that person an Idiot Sandwich? He SURE knows how to throw a good insult.

[thavnairian]

sometimes you don't wanna just yell at someone the normal way

sometimes you just want to shove them between bread and call them an idiot sandwich

[droptheious]

HAH right! Sometimes that's just something you've got to do. Really get your point across.
