June 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 Llama. Days can be found here.

The thought of the month is "With every falling apart, there is a coming together".

This means: Any thread with someone your character has never met before in-game will earn you two bonus points during May and June.

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

The ingredient of the month is nori. 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: Meal Preparation
Purple: Laundry
Red: Cleaning kitchen and bathrooms
Orange: Cleaning bedrooms and passenger areas

The Train

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!

We would also like to give a quick reminder about the two styles of network we have in game. On the train we have the ICPs these can send messages to the whole train or a specific carriage or sleeper cabin. They are video or voice only! For more information on the ICPs please look here

When on missions the character's SCAs work as comm devices, allowing voice chatter and there is always a comm-specific post for that. For more information on the SCAs please look here.

Important Dates

This month’s event will be a train event on the 12th and 13th of June.

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. For player-led events, please see the player plot calendar.

Other Info

Thank you once again to both Ree and Nat for their wonderful NPC work in the last mission! If anyone wishes to sign up to help with NPCing on missions please go here!

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.

We're delighted to announce that Ree will be joining the modteam as a mission assistant! This formalises a lot of what she has already been doing the last few months both as an NPC handler and helping with boss battles and other big mission events. It also means there will be a third person available to ask questions about missions and give out further information which should help things run a bit smoother and make sure everyone can be as involved as they wish to be!

Ree also made a shiny premise page too, which can be used to help recruit new players.

Points have been updated on the Roster.

Bucky/Soldat | MCU | Purple team

[personal profile] worthallthis 2021-05-31 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
Name: Gail
Contact info: cacopheny @ plurk

Character: Bucky Barnes AKA Soldat
About them: Former brainwashed amnesiac assassin for HYDRA, who died after the split-second decision not to actually kill Steve Rogers and then spent a year and a half in a dead world where they slowly learned how to People again. Soul/life force/whatever is in a lantern that they carry around all the time, which I sometimes forget to mention in narration. They're on Purple team, but always swap for somebody on the kitchen chores so they can cook instead, and often do missions with Red team.

Plans: Soldat spends the majority of their time in the kitchen, working on daily meals and mission prep work, with some time in the evenings in the training car helping people learn basics like how to fall, how to break holds, and how to hit where it hurts the most so their students can run away when necessary. On the last mission and in the aftermath, they basically displayed to most of the train that they've disassociated to the point of alters being able to take over their body, so there's a lot of fallout and explanations going on and/or going to happen there. Plus Steve Rogers just left right after discovering this so there's some definite guilt and fear there that other people might reject them for it, especially considering one of their headmates is a ruthless assassin and another is a very self-focused monster.

CR wanted: People they can adopt and look after, people who can maybe slowly convince them to open up and stop focusing on working so hard to be useful, people to poke at the disassociation/headmates thing. Open to positive and negative there. Trying to mom or dad at them will probably not be easy, but I'm happy to put them into a situation for people to give it a go.

Things to avoid: Personhood, mind control, memory loss, giving orders. ... well, not necessarily avoid? Because I absolutely like poking Soldat's issues, just be aware it will result in freakouts or stonewalling. Also not interested in romance for them at this time.

He now has a very protective Space Pirate worried about him. Unfortunately this Space Pirate is horribly inept at navigating friend emotions even if he really does care. Things that happen when your survival skill was trying really hard to look like you didn't give a fuck when you gave a whole barrel of fucks. But he will be trying to find some way to help.

Yondu's mere presence and affection helps!

How visible is his arm, generally? Because I'm bringing in this terrible alien teen prosthetics nerd and she would be very impressed.

Generally they've got long sleeves on, but the hand is always visible, and they do often roll the sleeves up when cooking! :3 Please come talk to Soldat about the arm, terrible alien teen person.

These two could probably stand to meet at some point, especially if Lucy gets a turn in the outside world.

Also, thank you Random Icon Selector, for grabbing that icon.

I do need to hit you up! ... this is not a great platform for it unless Hanuel wants to deal with The Sads. Maybe we can plan something for the event? /chinscratches
