☆TRACK IV: COME TOO FAR

Who: Everyone!
What: Something explodes in the distance. In a figurative sense.
When: November 6th.
Where: Anywhere you are.
Warnings: ???

“Like the legend of the Phoenix,
All ends with beginnings,
What keeps the planets spinning,
The force from the beginning.”

☆COME TOO FAR
On November 6th, the sudden lockdown of Pride Records and Virgo Entertainment finally ends. But not before some unseen actions have their consequences.



Due to the nature of the conflict, none of you can be there to see it, but that doesn't mean it can't be felt. In the morning of the 6th, something cries out to you spiritually - like the voice of a guardian angel, or a haunting ghost. Something, somewhere, is calling on you for aid. Pleading for you to lend it your power.

Whether or not you consciously agree, you'll feel a connection stronger than anything you've felt up till this point, like whatever this creature is is somehow in the room with you, or maybe like you're with it. What happens next depends on your alignment.

► LOVE & HOPE: All at once, characters with these alignments will feel as if they have taken a deep, spiritual blow - much like having someone clasp their hand around your "soul" and attempt to snuff it out. The attack itself will be brutal but brief. It's the after effects that linger, which may be any of the following:

1) Lingering spiritual pain that triggers symptoms akin to a fever in the body. It may also trigger effects such as nosebleeds and other signs of intense stress.

2) Forgetting everything except the memories you've regained.

3) A feeling of being desperately alone. How your character reacts to this feeling can vary, but the most common response will be seeking comfort from anyone nearby, even if you are not usually the sort of person to do that.

These effects will last from anywhere as short at 15 minutes to as long as 5 hours. You can pick more than one of these effects for a character, but try to balance the potency of each if you take more than one, so you aren't completely kicking the shit out of them. Vestiges of these effects can linger throughout the rest of the day, but in a significantly reduced capacity.

► DUTY & PASSION: All at once, characters with these alignments will feel an intense sense of fear and grief, as if they have lost something extremely precious to them. Generally speaking, this will manifest as a sort of panic or desperation to save whatever that thing is - but not being entirely clear on where they have to go or what they have to do to accomplish it. This can very well trigger some brash and irrational actions as they sort out this abrupt feeling of urgency.

1) Soon after the feeling begins, affected characters will feel empathically drawn to the characters suffering from the effects listed for Hope & Love, even if they are not normally the sort to be so concerned for others. This can go as far as having them be aggressively protective to the point that they will conflict with each other over it.

2) Along with that feeling of being drawn to protect them, all characters will feel an intensified kinship with all the other player characters - from both labels. This feeling of kinship won't cause them to know anything more about each other than they did before, but it will cause them to feel like much closer friends than they actually are.

These effects will last from anywhere as short at 15 minutes to as long as 5 hours. After that period has ended, all these empathetic effects will fade off on their own.

Any network posts made in the chaos will be deleted by the execs after the 5 hours period has closed, if not sooner. By the end of the day, Lesedi Santiago and Edward Blanche will announce their return, and bans from leaving HQ will be lifted.

They will not acknowledge the events of the morning unless someone goes to ask them about it.

“We've come too far
to give up who we are.
So, let's raise the bar
and our cups to the stars.”

No one around here looks like that...

[He starts heading to her penthouse. She's sick, there's no doubt about it, and he's going to make sure she's okay. He decides that getting her to her bed is the best course of action.]

Here, stop for a second and let me feel your head.
sailorlaughter: (...no parties?)

'Kay.

[She leans forward to let him, gripping a little tighter so she won't fall.]
punchesyu: (yeah i don't think it works that way)

[He places a hand to her head. It's warm, definitely warmer than it should be at least. He hopes it's not just his hand being warm that makes him think that, huffing a sigh through his nose.]

You have a fever or something. If I get sick 'cause of this, you totally are gunna owe me one.

[He shifts his position back into something that gives Pinkie support, starting their walk back to her penthouse.]
sailorlaughter: (<3)

[personal profile] sailorlaughter 2015-11-25 04:20 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll make you some cupcakes. Have I ever made you cupcakes before?

[She hasn't; Pinkie's recent forays into brownies during their lockdown was the first time she'd ever really baked anything. Not like you can do much of that on a tour bus.]

'Cause I...totally know how to make cupcakes.
punchesyu: (it's because i did something weird)

[personal profile] punchesyu 2015-11-25 04:31 pm (UTC)(link)
You know how to cook? Or bake?

[He's surprised, but hell if he's ever going to say no to cupcakes.]

Maybe we should think about cupcakes later. I don't think I want you making any in your condition right now.
sailorlaughter: (I...what?)

[personal profile] sailorlaughter 2015-11-27 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah? I'm like...pretty sure I do. I'll show you sometime!
punchesyu: (lineface)

[personal profile] punchesyu 2015-11-27 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
[He's getting more worried. She's gotta be more sick than he thought.]

Uh, that's not convincing at all. You either do or you don't. I don't want to eat some kind of experiment from the void here...
sailorlaughter: (So I just giggled at the ghosties and th)

I do, too! I even wrote a song about it!

[SHUT UUUUUUP MAN DON'T QUESTION HER SKILLLLLLLS]
punchesyu: (probably just whining again that's a thi)

You wrote a song about your cooking skills...?

[Look at this skepticism. He's not hiding it (but he's kind of a jerk.)]

Yeah, that doesn't prove that you can actually cook.
sailorlaughter: (Invite hat!)

[personal profile] sailorlaughter 2015-11-28 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
It's a recipe song. For cupcakes! I MUST know how to make cupcakes if I can sing the recipe!
punchesyu: (dude like indignant yo)

[personal profile] punchesyu 2015-11-28 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
There's way more that goes into that kind of thing than just knowing the ingredients!

[Even when she's not sick anymore, he doesn't think he should try her cupcakes. Ever.]

You have to know how to put it all together too or it'll be a giant mess! You know, like actually doing it before, not just going by the lyrics of a song you made up!

That's in the recipe? That's what a recipe IS!

[YOU ARE FUCKING EATING THEM]
