“Hold your colours against the wall, When they take everything away, Hold your colours against the wall, With me (soaking through)” ☆IN REACHING OUT  Starting around the 20th of January, the heavy lockdown and supervision of the musicians of both labels will begin to fade. While they still require escorts to be out and about, the guards that have been routinely stalking them around their own homes and HQs will be gradually phased out, until it is just the regular managers and security remaining. Sweet deal, right? Over a month after the hysteria of the ill-fated solstice party, things seem to be finally letting up a little. Whether because you've played nice for long enough, or whether their attentions are being directed elsewhere, it isn't clear. Either way, this is the also the start of some increasingly familiar paranormal activity. All the way back to the first tour of this generation of musicians, members of both Pride and Virgo have found themselves haunted by strange and inexplicable happenings. Starting on the 23rd, these happenings begin to flare up again - lights switching on and off, TVs starting on their own, and even things falling off of shelves unprovoked. (These minor happenings can be made up by you and don't need to be mod designated - however, they should not be anything that would be threatening or dangerous to the characters.) For some people this will be completely new, and for others it may even be faintly nostalgic. This will continue until the night of the 30th, when things finally seem to come into swing. The hauntings will become more pointed and explicit. The details are specific to each HQ, and there and you can make yourself open to an NPC haunting down below. ☆PRIDE RECORDS About halfway through the evening on the 30th, Predator will begin prowling the halls of Pride HQ. At first it won't be clear for what, but after catching a few snippets of conversation (this can be handwaved) characters will have a change to realize that they are looking for the ghosts that have been causing a fuss recently. How crazy this will sound to you will probably depend on how new you are. They will actively shake down random musicians they meet for information about what they've seen the last couple days. As usual, Jenny is leading the pack, with Cass and Donny (nsfw) providing back up muscle. Provided you lie well or tell them the truth, they will move along fairly quickly. If you start shit with them, they will probably rough you up a little. Any major confrontations with them will be handled on the companion OOC post, and a few top levels may appear over here that can be tagged into in limited amounts. Beyond those activities, Pride members will feel various effects based on their EMOTIONAL ALIGNMENTS: ► ALL: Their connection and desire to create music will be especially heightened. They will find themselves subconsciously beginning to tap out rhythms, hum, peck at instruments, or straight up sing things even when it would otherwise be totally inappropriate. Strong emotions will cause them to want to sing and play to each other. They may also feel very strongly that they want to dance, to a particularly addictive beat that seems to emanate from the air. It may shift and change as the night goes on, but at any given moment everyone will hear the same rhythm. It sounds like particularly great percussion. ► LOVE & DUTY: They will have no extra special effects, but they will feel this urge to create music even more strongly than the rest, as it seems to be focused on them as they are not being directly targeted by any other sensations. When Hope and Passion musicians hear music made by these characters, they will feel stronger, like energy is being gifted to them. ► HOPE: Characters of this alignment will feel increasingly like they are being drawn somewhere, or like someone is calling for them, but they can't quite make out the direction it's coming from. The aspect of hope will be empowered within them, and they will find themselves unusually trusting towards the other characters, as if they only have the most optimistic outcomes in mind. Beyond this, they may feel dazed or confused by the sensations they are feeling. They may also experience strange visions, or the sensation of being another person they are not (and not just their true self this time, someone else completely). ► PASSION: Characters of passion will be targeted by the 'hauntings' much more directly than the others. More than random acts, the hauntings around them seem like someone is actively trying to communicate with them. Sometimes it will even feel like someone is trying to speak in their heads, though they won't quite be able to make it out. Passion characters who request haunting instances will get the most major effects. ☆VIRGO ENTERTAINMENT Soon after things start to get extra weird on the 30th, Juno and a couple Virgo veterans (Anansi and a man you recognize as a popular folk artist named Brett Hogan) will start wandering the halls. They will pull individuals aside for questioning in private rooms, asking about the strange occurrences. They will not attempt to rough anyone up, but excessively resistance or attempts at violence towards them may result in characters being locked in their rooms for the rest of the night. All three of them seem particularly hard to lie to for some reason, tonight. It's possible, but while you make the effort to do so, the words seem to be on the verge of falling out of your mouth. Juno seems to have something very particular in mind as she searches the HQ, like she can see something you can't. There will also be top levels for these guys appearing. Beyond those activities, Pride members will feel various effects based on their EMOTIONAL ALIGNMENTS: ► ALL: Their connection and desire to create music will be especially heightened. They will find themselves subconsciously beginning to tap out rhythms, hum, peck at instruments, or straight up sing things even when it would otherwise be totally inappropriate. Strong emotions will cause them to want to sing and play to each other. They may also feel very strongly that they want to dance, to a particularly addictive tune that seems to emanate from the air. It may shift and change as the night goes on, but at any given moment everyone will hear the same song. It sounds like someone riffing expertly on a guitar. ► HOPE & PASSION: They will have no extra special effects, but they will feel this urge to create music even more strongly than the rest, as it seems to be focused on them as they are not being directly targeted by any other sensations. When Love and Duty musicians hear music made by these characters, they will feel stronger, like energy is being gifted to them. ► LOVE: Characters of this alignment will feel increasingly like they are being drawn somewhere, or like someone is calling for them, but they can't quite make out the direction it's coming from. The aspect of love will be empowered within them, and they will find themselves unusually loving, connected, and emotionally open to others, even if this would usually be out of character. (This can also mean they are more inclined to get physically intimate, if you want to.) Beyond this, they may feel dazed or confused by the sensations they are feeling. They may also experience strange visions, or the sensation of being another person they are not (and not just their true self this time, someone else completely). ► DUTY: Characters of duty will be targeted by the 'hauntings' much more directly than the others. More than random acts, the hauntings around them seem like someone is actively trying to communicate with them. Sometimes it will even feel like someone is trying to speak in their heads, though they won't quite be able to make it out. Duty characters who request haunting instances will get the most major effects. ☆PLOT NOTE This will be a two part event, and the second part will be posted in a few days and will only include those that choose to help the spirits. This can be discussed OOC. Any alignment can assist, though the Passions from Pride and the Duties from Virgo will be the most directly pursued because they will be the easiest for the spirits to communicate with. Realize that participating is serious business, though: there are good odds the characters will be caught eventually, and there will be consequences. Do not volunteer your characters for this plot if you don't want them to suffer potential physical or mental trauma.“Fading gently, soaking through, And starting not to show at all. In reaching out and into you, nothing else could touch me.” |

She takes a deep breath and relaxes, letting it envelop her. ]
no subject
HEY!! YO!
no subject
Woah! Hey. Watch it!
[And then, Yuffie sort of covers her face and then looks over her fingers at the penthouse This is insane..]
Wait, how are you doing that?
no subject
[The voice sound like a young man - and just a little bit obnoxious with their youth.]
Wait, what?? It's because I'm a ghost and I jumped into your head! Right, I guess that wasn't obvious from the outside...thanks, by the way!
no subject
You're a- [She stops and her eyes narrow.]
You're a ghost. So you're dead? [She pauses.] You don't sound like a total creepizoid, you're not gonna start like making dolls talk or something, right?
[Nevermind that it's ridiculous because he's in her head, why would he need a doll when he has a person?]
Why're you..ya know....talking to me?
no subject
But I...nuts, I kind of did this all in the wrong order. I need your help, really really bad. And you need our help.
no subject
I dunno, dude. What's been happenin' around here's been kinda creepy.
[She pauses, and frowns.]
You need my help. How? What is it?
[And then there's that whole 'you need our help' thing. That sounds...Well. Problematic?]
no subject
[There's a brief pause.]
You've...remembered stuff about who you are, right?
no subject
...The visions. And the dreams. That's what you mean, right?
[She instantly does take on a more serious edge because this is important.]
no subject
[His voice takes on a more regretful tone.]
Well...they're real. They're memories of who you really are. Cause, right now...you're kind of Santiago's slave.
no subject
[Yuffie sounds awed for a moment, and then-]
What about here? What about the people here? My friends, my-
[Then a beat as Yuffie gets angrier as it dawns on her.]
What the hell did they do to us?
no subject
They kidnap people and wipe their memories. You're probably not even from this planet! The reasons are kind of a stupid mess but everything you remember about Americana isn't real!
no subject
None of it? They've...
It's all of us, isn't it? Everyone that's having these memories, they've done this to all of us.
[Yuffie stops for a moment, and then she takes his determination and he can probably feel hers.]
You need my help? So, what can I do.
no subject
They took my friend. Octave. We were working on trying to bring back people's memories and they came after us - Stella and Octave couldn't get away in time. They've got him somewhere in this stupid tower and I need to get him out!
no subject
[Yuffie nods, even if she can's see him, she can tell that they are completely on the same page. Normally she'd be more paranoid, but she can feel this, she can feel his determination and his worry and that's enough for her. He wants his friend back. She'd want the same. ]
Do you have any idea where in the tower he is?
no subject
Its this weird core in the middle of the building...I think it's where Santiago keeps all her science crap.
no subject
[Yuffie pauses, trying to find the words.]
Possessing me? Do you think you can get in?
[And then-]
Wait, if you can go anywhere, have you just been watching us this whole time?
no subject
[The connection flickers a little, and it feels like he has to struggle to keep it up.]
And u-uh...yeah I guess?? Not like in a weird way!
no subject
[A beat.]
You should tell me your name so I'm not just calling you 'ghost' or dude or something.
[And then Yuffie starts making her way across the room to the door.]
Okay, we'll wing it together. We'll figure it out. We'll get your friend out and then...then we can focus on the memory thing. Okay. [Like she's trying to convince both of them that they can do it, though Yuffie is surprisingly sure for someone who shouldn't be ready to go climb through a building in hostile territory.]
We've got this.
no subject
[He sounds very pleased with this whole thing, but he also lets out the spiritual equivalent of an exhausted wheeze.]
Sounds great, but...I gotta take a break on this possessing thing. It's not as easy as it looks. Look, I...got some other people who want to help, I think. I'll bring you to them, 'kay?
no subject
[Yuffie grins.]
You got it. Tell me where to be, and I'll be there, I promise.
no subject
[The connection breaks. But instead of fully disappearing again, when the ghost separate from her body, he can be seen in the ghostly form of a young blue alien.
He gives her a thumbs up, and then flies away down the hall.]
no subject
[Yuffie takes off after him, ready to go take on whatever they need to.]
