UN: Zodiac | Happy April!

[kaisoumods]

WHO: Everyone!
WHERE: Libra App
WHEN: April 1st
WHAT: Zodiac Network Post
WARNINGS: None!

[The winds will calm down as the Spirit Vein shifts into hues of gold, orange and green- reflective of the Earth element. Everyone's devices will emit a soothing wind chime sound as a new Zodiac post appears. The chime will sound even if you have your phone turned off or on silent, and will not stop until you read their messsage and comment to it.]



Ivan, Lynn, and Ventus have joined the app. Say hi everyone!


Yuuki, Lan Wangji, Shadow, Jiang Cheng, Arcueid and Eren have left the app.

[The post then continues on.]

Hello and thank you for using the Libra app.

Happy April everyone! First I want to applaud everyone who assisted the Fae in their production! While we know many of you weren't excited to take part, we still felt your performances were well done and deserve a pat on the back! Nicely done!

This is also a reminder that unfortunately, we at Zodiac have yet to find a way to reverse any fae-induced curses. But we do want to emphasize that just because you've been cursed, it doesn't mean you can't live a happy and fulfilling life. In fact many would argue there's benefits! It's always best to look at the positives and try not to let negative things define you.

In other news, we'd also like to thank those who assisted with the Eclipse gates and even generously gathered supplies! The Eclipse gates have seemed to move on, but the spirit energy in that area of town has remained unstable, so do be careful if you head there!

Finally, we're excited to announce that this year, Zodiac will be hosting Easter Egg hunts! Each weekend, during the month of April, you can sign up to participate in fun easter egg hunts for the whole family! There are hunts for children and for adults, so you can make sure you have fair competition! Grab your easter baskets and sign up today!

That's all for now! As always, we leave you off with an ice breaker question!


This post is sponsored by the Last Stand! Now in a new location! Come find us on the Southwest Tree branch when you need to refuel mid-study session!

[Users will have the option to choose their own display names and userpics 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.

OOC Note: If you haven't responded to AC, you still have until 11:59am EST today to do so! Once you do, you'll be removed from this post. ]

And *this* is why I took my introduction into my own hands.

Anyway! If anyone here watches Lynn E's magic videos or RedRedRosseland's streams--~*tada*~ it's me!

I didn't expect you to make your way onto this network. Or maybe I expected you to make it more dramatic.

Why the fuck do people want to know if the EASTER BUNNY is single??!! Why is that even a serious question! He's a BUNNY.

I'm a rabbit, among other creatures at this point. A Havana rabbit specifically.

0/10, would not recommend dealing with the fae again. They have very particular ideas how to run their plays and very little sense of other people's limits.

...also, I'd be more surprised if he was.

[goldace]

[Sup, app users. It's everyone's favorite himbo cowboy, only this time he's bunny shaped and covered in fluff.

But don't worry! He still has a cowboy hat on.]

Forget the Easter Bunny-- that guy's out of date and out of style.

I, however, am officially for hire-- so if anyone needs a rabbit to go hide eggs, spin signs, or do a handstand this month, I come with fireworks included!

text: un:kore

[aslowburn]

The fae had best be cautious when they next turn up. One of their little fools was aiming a curse at someone else and hit me instead. I was trying to deal with turning into a bear at the time, so the little wretch escaped.

But let it be known: I remember your face. I will not forget it. There will be consequences.

text: un: eve

[playtag]

[Oh, the fae got their landlady. RIP them]

Why were they trying to turn anyone into a bear?

That seems a strategically poor choice.

text: UN:idontcare

[jaxoff]

OKAY. Let's get this out of the way:

1. I'm not the Easter Bunny.
2. I don't know the Easter Bunny.
3. I don't have any eggs.
4. If you send your children after me asking for chocolate, I will straight-up tell them the real Easter Bunny got hit by a semi truck and Easter is cancelled forever. Keep pushing and I'll tell them Santa was the driver.

...

And holy sit I have to add a:

5. Don't be fg weird about the rabbit thing.

Okay happy Easter! I got you a present~

[...That icebreaker question. Janet's marriage must really be on the rocks if this is the one she chose. Good. Reap what you sew.]

Certain people keep asking me to deliver things because I'm part moogle now, Janet, in spite of knowing that's not part of my job description. If you want me to deliver things, pay me for it with your own damn money.

[greatlydares]

Easter promotion's on at Random Play! Come and rent a movie and just for the month, you get to rent two movies for the price of one!

Business promos aside, does anyone have any recommendations for bunny mascot costumes that don't scare small children? Thanks.

text | un: chaosraccoon

[actnormal]

Not gonna lie, not sure that's a thing.

un: hextechnician

[hexcrafter]

Janet is absolutely rushing to her latest divorce, I see.

[deusversusmachina]

I wonder if her inevitably-ex-husband has started the paperwork yet?

text | un: wayfinder

[bigsleep]

isn't that kinda like asking if santa claus is single?
or... the tooth fairy?

UN: hikari-vi | Text

[whiteshroud]

Yes, but we already know about Santa's marital status. He's happily married. The Easter Bunny is a bigger enigma.

... And I'm not convinced the tooth fairy isn't some type of demon.

[ it's your favorite person ever, sampo. and he's appearing on video today, having set his phone up on the kitchen table--and in the picture there's an assortment of letters he's... writing, apparently. And some colorful little blobs that are hard to make out because they're just sort of in a jumble. He also appears to be sporting a pair of wings on his back, which shimmer with an odd light and aren't fully attached to his body. He wiggles his fingers at the camera. ]

Hey-o, my FAVORITE people in the world. [ some may remember, the man had lost his voice recently, but look at that. it's back. His fingers move to touch a collar--choker on his neck. It's a yellowish-gold in color and sports a certain crystal in the middle of it. ] Thanks to no small effort, YOUR favorite businessman and funnyguy woke up this morning feeling his SUNDAY best. Except it's Monday. I know. And also, My Birthday, too!

I just wanted to shake a little thanks down on the network for those who collected bits of rocks for me, you know? Turns out? One of them worked. Worked a damn charm, and even if ol' Sam has to wear this forever now, it's maybe a bit better than you know. The possible other yanno. Turn outs.

Aaaaaanyway. I just wanted to show everyone that I'm all better--and! I'll be putting a certain gold credit card on tab to that super good Barbecue place down near Blue Fish Park. Dinner's on me tonight. And drinks. Can't have a birthday party without drinks.

See you there! After three months of tasting nothing? Ol' Sam's eating everything. Seeya!

[ he reaches to turn the feed off, but there's an odd flicker, and a sort of reddish-pink glow settles in his eyes as the frame freezes. ]

2/2

[anyprice]

[ a different voice comes in clear over the speaker, and while the video feed is frozen on a strange expression on Sampo's face, the words are clear, if not a little... odd-feeling to the brain. ]

[Well, Dante told him to get in contact with every person close to Venti, and that's... more people than Shroud knew- so time to use the app to make this easier]

I've been asked to check on those close to Venti. If you could, please respond and tell me if you've experienced anything unusual in the past couple day.

[Unusual... like a demon attack. ]

un: ragna

[centralfiction]

[Figures this guy would know. He always had an ear to the ground huh.

Either way, Ragna will respond.]

Some Demons fucking around and finding out unusual enough for you?

[He sounded like he's not gotten sleep in a bit. He has in fact been stressed out even knowing Venti is fine now.]

They got the jump on Venti and he took a hard hit. We took him somewhere to get him healed. He'll be fine... just needs to be left to recuperate...

video; un; AUO, after Sampo's TYBESTIES Shenanigans

[throwmoreswords]

[ somebody has put a party hat on Wo-Chien. it is garishly orange. there's a calico cat that's taken to wearing her purple party hat like a plague doctor mask, albeit somewhat unwillingly. Gilgamesh himself is (mercifully?) hatless when he comes into frame, though he's got several lip prints on his cheek in various colors. ]

How many pots of lip paint does one clown need, anyway? [ there's a cheerful 'all of them!' and a familiar hand comes up from out of frame to pat at his cheek. he swats at it, trying not to look too amused. ]

Anyway.

I've never been one to withhold praising myself, and I shall not do the people of Kaisou the discourtesy of downplaying how... tremendous your response has been, so. You've earned your accolades--to everyone who brought Sam and myself stones, gems, and all sorts of esoteric materials so that Blade could do some of the finest craftsmanship I've seen in any of my lifetimes, I am deeply grateful for your work. My heart wells with gratitude for how you lot rallied for Sam, and while I am not... a kind man, or a generous one, I am a man who believes in credit where it's due and recompense for one's work, paid in full.

If you have come into possession of a certain type of plastic creature recently, [ and here a little plastic ducky with pair of red harlequin masks crudely painted on its face begins to make a slow, bouncy journey up Gil's shoulder while his face stays stony and authoritative ] you may ask anything of me. If it is within my power to grant, I will see that what you ask for or the money necessary to accomplish the goal is given to you. You may contact me publicly, privately, or come see me at my residence in the Auguries.

This will not stop the cubes. The person that is relevant to knows what that means.

[ and there Gil is--little AHA ducky sitting proudly on his shoulder, tyrant-biting snail with his ugly party hat slowly easing his eye stalks into frame, and unseen pair of hands patting at his neck as he sits, stoic for just a moment... and then cracks. Relief on his face. his shoulders losing their set as he breathes. ]

Thank you. I apologize for threatening to blow up the city a little bit.

[ chin poke from the mystery hand. Gil swats at it and ends the recording. ]

[ there is a giant white mass behind Jing Yuan napping comfortably in the sunlight, it's massive mane just coming into frame. he considers, for a moment, getting a party hat for Snowmoon as well, before his refocuses. ]

It is good to see you in brighter spirits, Gil.

I didn't expect to have a spotlight on me so soon.

I'm Ivan de Rolo, a model. I'll refrain from commenting on the Easter Bunny's relationship status, but I am curious what an adult egg hunt consists of.

un: petaltothemetal

[blossominghopes]

Gotta admit, I'm a little curious, too. Though, admittedly I suppose it's probably not much different than one for kids.

Is there... something in the water, today? Is April cursed?>
Twice today I went to eat a snack left in my office that was given under good intentions, and now I can't get the flavor of grass, salt, and habanero out of my mouth. I don't appreciate it. You know who you are. I didn't even help anyone named Sam with anything.

I've also been splashed by water twice when going for a walk outside.

And I have new questions about dragons I don't want to think about.

[whiteshroud]

Who would leave you with those snacks? That's just cruel.

[Says the guy who did exactly that to his own brother]

un: fuego

[fuegor]

He might be single. You don't often hear about an Easter partner. That's a man with a stable job, I can't blame a guy for wanting to shoot their shot.

Oh yeah, does anyone on here know why this app won't come off of my phone? It didn't show up the last time I updated the software. I triple checked.

welcome to the super supernatural side of Kaisou dude. Zodiac found and force installed the app and it ain't comin off
