November 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 Orchestra. Days can be found here.

The thought of the month is "Don't be afraid to take big steps. You can't cross a chasm in two small jumps".

This means: Any thread that reaches 15 comments (total) will earn you two points..

Threads that fulfil this criteria can be submitted during December 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 Octopus. 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:

Red: Cleaning bedrooms and passenger areas
Orange: Meal Preparation
Blue: Laundry
Purple: 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 after the platform they will find that Sleeper Carriage 4 has been removed. Anyone who was in Sleeper Carriage 4 will their things have been moved to their new room. Please check out the Sleeper Cabin page for their new assignments. No roommates have been split.

Important Dates

The results of the poll are in. This month’s event will be an on train event on the 13th and 14th of November.

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

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

Other Info

Name: C
Contact info: c_for_characters on plurk



Character: Guri
About them: Human Replica Droid who once was programmed for evil - and still has the skills to back it up - but has since charted her own course. Very curious, up front and still learning what 'human' means in various ways.
Plans: I'd like to keep building on what she's been doing. She's been making deeper friendships, I'd love to keep building on that - she's taken her knocks, it's time to see what she learns from them. She does view a lot of the voidtrekers as having a lot more positive view of human nature than is actually real, which will be interesting to play with.
CR wanted: Friendship, romance, the works. Seriously, silly - it all is grist to the mill.
Things to avoid: Nothing so far. I am very flexible and enjoy everything from silliness to high drama.



Character: General Amaya
About them: General and Aunt, not necessarily in that order. Born deaf, communicates via sign. Big fan of breakfasts, good people, and family.
Plans: I'd like some? She's settling in but I'd really like to deepen things in general. I consider the next month or two kind of make-or-break for continuing to play her on here. Everyone has been wonderful, I'd just like things to 'stick'.
CR wanted: Any and all. Would not be averse to shipping, Amaya is canonically just into the ladies, however.
Things to avoid: Attempts to get around her deafness? She's not a fan of invasive things of that nature, nor does she consider her deafness something that needs 'fixing.'

More roomie things with Guri and Than, perhaps?

Also, Than's brother Charon communicates purely through groans. I like to think that they communicate through some kind of sign language or just Than understanding his communication because it's a god thing. He may not understand why Charon does certain things, but Thanatos does understand his big bro. Their work crosses after all.

It wouldn't be Than getting around or fixing her deafness exactly. He would just somehow understand. Is that something you'd be interested in?

Definitely the former. Not sure what that would entail, but yes!

Amaya's SCA provides subtitles to other SCAs or dubs what she's saying if they don't have theirs on. If you'd like Than to have an idea of sign language beyond that, though, I'm 100% down with that. Amaya can read lips, so that's ok.

All right. I'll try to throw Than at both of them, and we will see what happens.

I would love to continue to explore more with Ruby and Guri. I enjoy what they’ve done so far and I can’t wait to see what else they could do.

Would General Amaya be willing to teach someone sign language? Esteban would be delighted to learn!

He is Ready for it!

(And so am I! I'be actually just started checking out Very Basic ASL videos, because I think it's a very neat skill to have)
