April Information and CR meme!

We hope everyone had a fun month! Some information for your ongoing journey.

IC Month

This month is (still) the month of Kazoo. Days can be found here.

The thought of the month is "A journey well shared is a journey well enjoyed".

This means: Varied CR. The first thread with each character set in the month of Kazoo will earn you two bonus points during March and April.

Threads that fulfil this criteria can be submitted during April AC. You may find it easier to keep a tracking list of threads for easy compiling of bonus AC!

The ingredient of the month is tomato. Recipes are here. All the ingredients can be found in the storeroom, refreshed at the platform, and characters are welcome to make other food with them.

This month’s chore assignments are:
Blue: Laundry
Purple: Cleaning kitchen and bathrooms
Red: Cleaning bedrooms and passenger areas
Orange: Meal Preparation

The Train

As the month reaches the halfway point in the month of Kazoo, the train will stop to pick up new passengers.

As a reminder, you can list things that characters have added to the train here. Just comment under the header of the carriage you are adding to!

Important Dates

This month’s event will be a train event on the 10th and 11th of April. We currently have no submitted player-led plots or events for April.

The TDM will be posted on the 16th. Reserves will open on the 18th. Apps are between the 22nd and the 29th, and AC will run between the same dates.

For a reference, please consult our calendar post.

Other Info

Thank you to our NPC handlers, Ree and Nat, for their wonderful work on this mission! We couldn't do it without them!

We ask players to please submit any plots that will be unavoidable, widespread or both to the player plot calendar. This is to ensure that a mod has reviewed it, that events don't pile up, and that when relevant, we can open the dressing carriage and put everyone in matching outfits. It also means you can check the calendar for upcoming events or plots!

Our new players (and old players who want a refresher) might find it useful to read gameplay before the platform. As always the mods are happy to answer any questions you might have.

Points have been updated on the Roster.

Yondu Udonta

[personal profile] yondu 2021-03-31 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
Character: Yondu Udonta
About them: Guardians of the Galaxy (MCU)
- Cabin: 1:B
- Blue alien space pirate biker redneck
- Has a very obvious cybernetic implant on his head called a fin
- Has an arrow made of incredibly durable and sensitive metal that responds to his fin and whistles. He used it during the mission finale but had to do so depending entirely on the fin.
- Used to be a former Kree battle slave and a scarred up face as a result
- Has complicated feelings related to kids being on the train both from knowing a god that had him hunt down his own kids (and killed them when he brought them to their father, which Yondu didn't know Ego was doing until too late), of raising one of those kids as his own to protect him, and as having been sold as a baby and spending his entire youth as a possession
- He has now managed to tell one (1) person all about all of this and they don't hate him and that's a big deal.
- Has never been loved except maybe for the last ten seconds of his life
- Super misses his superhero team and is kind of half-ass trying to find people to fight by like that again.
- Likes to collect tiny figurines and has accomplished finding one tiny carved chicken.
Plans: He's going to buy his Ravager outfit so he'll be leathering it up around the train.

He's going to commission little Ravager badges for his adopted babies.

He's going to buy some Yaka metal and wants to use it for various stuff.
CR wanted: I want Yondu to have more people to open up to. I want him to have more "teammates" for mission combat when he can hook up with other teams. I want him to have people to hang out with whether they're tinies he's helping out or grown ass people that want to hang out with a sad grumpy alien.
Things to avoid: Breaking his fin or arrow are no-goes, no long term mind control.
helborn: (you're kind of cute)

Honestly I just kinda wanna throw all of mine at him. Ken needs to catch up with him. Otoha can very much vibe with Yondu's mood.

And Casper is just a very sweet guy who will care about Yondu. Nope, doesn't care what you did, you get soft.

Considering how often I'm top-leveling with this blue trash he'll def be around. I might only Top-Level with Murphy on the intro this time but eventually something will go up.

Siebren fuckin' loves Yondu and I am absolutely down for more CR. I have no specific ideas, but nonetheless.

[personal profile] yondu 2021-03-31 07:37 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, but... he has some points left. Can Siebren get him a little cute thing for a trade? Please?
namethattune: (But it's a good refrain)

[personal profile] namethattune 2021-03-31 07:42 am (UTC)(link)
He needs to inform Siebren that he wants a tchotchke first, but yes, absolutely. He probably won't ask for a trade either; he'll just get Yondu the thing and tell him to either return the favor later or pay it forward. He's not fussed.

I'm so sorry I dropped the ball so hard on this mission... Work really took a crowbar to my ankles. I still want some more CR with Yondu!
cycledsingularity: (Into the fray!)

[personal profile] cycledsingularity 2021-03-31 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Yondu may have a lot of tinies already but I admit I'm super interested to throw Mono his way

Once Mono warms up to society as a whole, I think Yondu will kind of fascinate him. He's really never seen anyone who quite looks like him; but that may be a point in his favor. You can't be traumatic if there is no comparison to make!

Mono also has no frame of reference for what is TOO dangerous for him either, so he might be surprisingly helpful in a jam when it isn't expected. Doing what it takes to survive crummy things is something they relate on.

Either way, I'm just so happy to see someone playing him. Guess we'll see how things go! ^^

Yondu never got to do another thread with Asriel but he's going to be worried about these little monster children on board like crazy.

Want to hear some space pirate adventure stories?

They'll be the first he has ever heard :'>

He needs to endanger himself and tell Crowley that he figured out who Queen is. He was warned but he'll do it anyway.

(He was trying to remember Bohemian Rhapsody and Soldat was like "Uh oh.")

[personal profile] agathokakological 2021-04-01 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
Soldat was right but for the wrong reasons. Crowley isn't Queen's #1 fan. Crowley is a demon who has owned a vintage cursed Bentley since new that turns every tape he puts inside of it's sound system into a best of Queen tape. Crowley has been forced to listen to the best of queen on repeat for decades. Crowley is numb to it. If anything... he appreciates that it doesn't exist on the train.

That is the worst curse. Please tell him 'cause he can only imagine (I'm sure he had to listen to Meredith Quill's songs until they managed to find more in spaceports)

I did top-level for him to catch up with people this month. I didn't make it super specific but I did make it.
