August Information and CR Meme!

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

IC Month

This month is the month of Merriment. Days can be found here.

The thought of the month is "Nobody can do everything, but everybody can do something".

This means: Any thread where you tag into another character's post or top level will earn you two bonus points during July and August.

Threads that fulfil this criteria can be submitted during August 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 coconut. 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: Cleaning bedrooms and passenger areas
Purple: Meal Preparation
Red: Laundry
Orange: Cleaning kitchen and bathrooms

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 to which you are adding. There is also a handy spreadsheet here!

When passengers return to the train after picking up new arrivals they will find sleeper carriage 5 has been removed- the four passengers from that carriage have been reassigned to different cabins, though no room-mates have been split up.

They is a slight change to the armoury- additional communal lockers- one for each team and a multi team locker. Information about that can be found on the settings page and the list of communal supplies can be found here.

Important Dates

This month’s event will be a train event running between the 12th and 17th of August.

The TDM will be posted on the 17th. Reserves will open on the 19th. Apps are between the 22nd and the 29th, and AC will run between the 23rd and 30th.

For a reference, please consult our calendar post. For player-led events, please see the player plot calendar.

Other Info

The shop has been updated with Large Items. Points have been updated on the roster.

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.

Thank you as ever to both Ree and Nat for their help with NPCs in the last mission. A huge thank you to everyone who took part and who welcomed our 4th wall guests.

For anyone who missed it- please read over the consequence notes for the end of So Familiar a Gleam.

Takato might be checking in with him to see about those art lessons they talked about.

Danny is going to be looking for people who have experience with supernatural stuff who could help him with A. training as a ghost or B. willing be a Plan B to take him out if he gets brainwashed again, so this could be a good opportunity to meet. Also hes absolutely on board if flying is happening.

Takatooo I was thinking that Jingyi will try ordering a calligraphy set for himself (small item wise) with different inks to showcase to him, in exchange for the introduction to crayons!

As for Danny, hahaha that works for Jingyi, who specifically will start out asking him hey so uh. Is possession. A thing you can do. While slowly draining of colour. And flying happens as a dragon! If Danny wants to play aerial games in the taller carriages, Jingyi's happy to do so, it's better exercise and more entertaining than doing anything on his own alone!

Fun! Takato would be very excited to learn about inks.

Danny awkwardly confirms that that's a thing he can do. But he tries not to do that except in emergencies. And hey, he can break them too.

Danny would jump at the chance to play flying games. He really misses flying while the train is out on the void, and you can only do laps around the ceiling so many times.

calligraphy set ordered, this is definitely something they can now do!

The breaking them that is good news, Jingyi's One Unreasonable Fear (especially for a cultivator) is possession by human-ghost in particular so he's like ah yes. Grand. /sobs inwardly

Hahah good, that's something they can get up to with him in small dragon form--he could in adult human form but a. that makes him bigger and carriages are still smol confined spaces relative to you know. being outside. and b. he'll feel more like being ridiculous when tiny dragon because it's easier to not care about face when no one takes you seriously anyway lmf #welp
