Submitting some Arc ideas for the... Very far future? XD:
Title: V for
Vendetta Valentine
Villains: TBA
Arc: The official Athalia Valentine’s Day tradition follows that of the oriental culture: It is a day where the ladies have a chance to show their affections for someone of the opposite/same gender by giving someone chocolate. Though couples are, of course, free to celebrate Valentine’s Day as they wish it’s a great excuse for the female students to let their unshared feelings known along with everyone else during the commercial-based hype in the name of choco- I mean, because they've all been shot by cupid's arrow. Yeah. That's it. And of course it's a great way to remind that special someone that they are loved.
Valentine's Day Traditions:
- The females are the ones to prepare the gifts (chocolate).
- The ladies may prepare 'obligatory' chocolate which is usually just cheap/normal chocolate one could buy at a grocery store just to hand out to co-workers and/or friends. No romantic feelings.
- 'Handmade' chocolate is considered the ultimate way of displaying romantic affections for someone on Valentine's Day. Even more than expensive brand-name chocolate (Though ladies that cannot cook are known to 'cheat' like this. xD)
'Course, just letting students know about the tradition and letting them hand over the chocolate at their own leisure is no fun at all. And so, there's a special catch to all this. As the girls happily wrap their chocolates and get ready for their special day... They suddenly find that their chocolate has disappeared! One minute it was there, the next it is gone! Where is it? No one knows for certain, but as the chocolates disappear the guys find a mysterious letter addressed to them with some sort of hint as to where something 'precious' may be.
((In short: All the girls' chocolates will disappear and be hidden away somewhere in the academy. The guys are handed hints as to where the chocolates are but... The clue they are given is for a random chocolate. xD Meaning, the one they can find may not be the one that's meant for them. Goal 1: Find the chocolate! Goal 2: Get the chocolate to the correct person! xDD And ALL chocolate will be hidden, including the obligatory ones. :P))
Involved: Everyone. Especially for characters with a love interest (fulfilled or otherwise).
When: Jan or Feb.ish?
NOTE: The places where the chocolates are hidden and the hint distributed should all be decided and handed out at the beginning of the game so everyone can hunt at their own leisure. Though a lot of interaction may be needed to trade chocolates/hints to get the right ones. xD
Title: 'Forget Me Not' OR 'Simply Irresistable'
Villains: TBA
Arc: White Day is on March 14th, and it's the day when the gents must give return gifts to the girls for giving them chocolate on Valentine's Day! But even if the poor gents did not receive any chocolate, it is now their chance to appeal to the girl of their dreams with a lavish gift!
White Day Traditions:
- The males are the ones to prepare the gifts.
- The gents can prepare 'obligatory gifts' (gifts just handed out to return the favour for the chocolates, and for co-workers and/or friends). Or, they can prepare a gift to actually show that they return the affections of the girl or to display their unrequited ones.
- Gifts can vary greatly, unlike Valentine's Day. Generally tradition is to prepare a 'white' treat. For example, marshmallow, cake, white candy, white chocolate, etc... But some gents choose to go all out for things such as clothing or even jewelry (once again, usually white in colour).
-It is considered a social obligation to at least give a gift to any female that has given them chocolate. Failure to do so will result in public shaming within the academy (because this is more interesting).
As with Athalia tradition... No major event must go as planned! xD
Idea 1: Most (if not all) the girls within the academy receive a small and modest package on their doorstep: a bag of marshmallows in a clear wrap tied off with a white bow. The tag reads 'From Your Secret Admirer' and appears to be a gift for White Day. It is left right by their bed, on the desk, or some other conspicuous area in their room. How it was left there is unknown, and though this may be considered by some it's not entirely improbable that someone with a special ability for this has left the gift there without ever even having stepped into the room.
What they don't know is... The marshmallows have been 'enchanted'. Anyone that eats it automatically forgets
everything about the person 'most' important to them. They retain all their other memories and do not even realize they have lost a portion of their memories (the brain is good at filling in gaps like that, surprisingly enough). The cure is... Well, that's what they have to find isn't it? XD
Idea 2: Most (if not all) the guys within the academy receive a small and modest package on their doorstep (because I am original and creative like that xD): a small vial left in a plain-looking cardboard box with the tag that reads 'From an Anonymous Supporter'. Only ONE box is left behind the door of the shared male dormitory (meaning: 1 bottle between 2 roommates). Within the box is the tagged vial, and a small card with the instructions:
'A whiff will get notice. Some drops will earn affection. The entire bottle for their heart. Add to something sweet for best results.'
((Translation: Having someone smell the liquid inside will make them notice the person more. A few drops will give small feelings of affection/crush. The entire bottle will make someone fall in love. All the effects will work for the FIRST person the affected sees. :P))
Will anyone use it? On who? And... Just how will the effects last anyway? The answers will be found within the arc...
And not because Theo was too lazy to think of them at the moment.Involved: Everyone. Especially for characters with a love interest (fulfilled or otherwise).
When: Feb. or March-ish? Some time after the Valentine's one.
