[OOC] Chasing the Sky

[Orchestratic]

I agree. c: You make the best RP partner, Miss Brigette.

[Akayaofthemoon]

Thank you and you are great partner as well Mr. Tyler ^_^

[Orchestratic]

I'm honored you think so. :D

[Akayaofthemoon]

I'm glad your honored because I am glad you think highly of me as a partner ^_^

[Orchestratic]

:D So whatcha don' gurl?

[Akayaofthemoon]

Lol I am being a bit silly. I got side tracked on my writing (a.d.d) and I am looking up back stories/ theories on five nights at Freddy's 1 & 2 ^_^ I love the lore of this game and the way they freak and or blow your mind.

[Orchestratic]

Speaking of mind blowing games, have you ever heard of Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem? (if you have, skip down a paragraph xD) It's literally a game about mindfucking the player. It's so amazing, and I want to beat it. Unfortunately, it only ever came out for Gamecube and is kinda hafd fo Anyway, it's a game about your sanity! You have a main character who you start out as, but you switch characters from different time periods throughout (I didn't play much, but I played as someone from ancient Egypt and also as a Gladiator at some point. Anyway, you have a sanity meter, and as things happen to you, your sanity goes down (like your health), and the lower it gets, the more crazy shit that happens to you, like, for instance, the game show you dying, but you don't really die. Or a floating head appears and starts quoting Shakespeare. Or the volume will slowly get lower... and lower... then at a jump scare (It's a horror game) it'll blast the volume all the way up. It'll flash subliminal messages about possible game endings at random times, or make walls melt, or lights flicker... headless character... bunch of shit to make you feel crazy. My personal favorites: Pretend glitched screen. Like it'll show static or the screen will go black with sound still going, or it'll randomly just say "THE END". Best one of all, it'll actually pretend to have deleted your game file. Bahahahahahahahaha.

Also, this is turning kinda cute between Praxis and Aruna. c: I think I'ma have Praxis do something finally in the way of being attracted her. Hehe. Obviously only shallowly at the moment, but we know it's going to come into play eventually so little hints are fun and cute. Hehe. :3 Great post, by the way. As expected from my wonderful partner. c:I'm so ubder tired but I'ma star ton mine tonight! :D

[Akayaofthemoon]

That is awesome! I have a GameCube so I should find it online and buy it cause that sounds like my kind of game. I get scared easy but it is still so fun! ^_^

Yay!!! I love cuteness and sweetness even better ^_^ I also think hints are great cause we know where it is going eventually so why not have some fun with it! It will be great for growing on the characters part too!

[Orchestratic]

I love it too. Heheh. c: I think Praxis will be just about my favorite character to develop character for. Especially with Aruna. Honestly I picture them together and it's so lovely and adorable somehow. ;3

[Akayaofthemoon]

I agree, I love Aruna's character and the development of her will be amazing since it will be with Praxis. Everytime I picture them together I just get so happy since it seems so cute! I love having dreams with them or how things play out ^-^

[Orchestratic]

Meant to be. :D I've almost forgotten the point of this was to find out about the religions harvesting from the tree itself.... so here is my theory of how this will go (Eventually):

After they go their separate ways, Praxis will still find her interesting and follow her (because you said she was going on a journey of some sort when he encountered her originally anyway). After following her for so long, he'll probably just make himself known that he is doing so because he's a drifter anyway, but otherwise he'll only reveal himself when they come across the large hole in Yggdrasil we mentioned before. When Aruna comes across it, if he hasn't already Praxis will reveal himself and they will chat about it (probably half-civil, knowing Aruna, and depending on how this next part goes for us :P) until they search for people nearby to explain what happened, then of course blame each other's deities (Sun and Moon), and agree to travel together to find out the truth. I would say at first they find the Moon's work, but soon after find the Sun has done the same thing, and so they go to each other for comfort maybe to cope? Then decide to find out what's going on.

This is what I foresee from our previous guesses of how it would go. Is this still the main direction you'd like to be headed, Miss Pretty Lady? C:

[Akayaofthemoon]

That all sounds perfect! I have an idea where the hole idea might come in handy. What is Praxis saves her from falling in? It would make Aruna more likely to chat civily with him since it would have been her life in danger if not for him? Just a thought XD but yes that would bra great direction to go in for pushing them together!

[Orchestratic]

OoooOOooh yeah that makes sense. ^-^ Like maybe she's moving so fast with her teleportation/speed that she doesn't notice until she tries to stop and kinda trips toward it. Or whatever else. He could also stop her by freezing her mind, but that's really powerful so that'd be like a knockout to him to make sure she doesn't fall into it. Just some ideas. :P

[Akayaofthemoon]

That is kind of along the lines that I was thinking! ^-^ It will be awesome!
Also, I was thinking a bit on the red string of fate and noticed that it ties very closely to the moon because in the story, it is a moon god that places the thread on two people! How cool is that!? XD

[Orchestratic]

That's awesome! :O! So in her dream, was the string placed by the moon? And unto who? :o

[Akayaofthemoon]

I think yes on the moon placing the red string but not sure yet. As for who, I thought that would be obvious hehehe ^_^

[Orchestratic]

I actually am coming up with something for the red string linked to the moon and Praxis in her dreams if she has the ability to possibly have clairvoyant dreams. Magic or spiritually speaking. OOH OR YGGDRASIL. Anyway, the idea is developing. :P

[Akayaofthemoon]

Well I am not sure how to connect the red string with the moon so if you have an idea that would be great but yes, the red string in her dream is connected to Praxis. I was thinking that maybe the Yggdrasil is giving her meaningful dreams and maybe even Praxis starts having a few himself ^_^

[Orchestratic]

Well, if she's dreaming of the moon, then Praxis's dreams should be of the sun. :o The Rakatsuki (the religion of the moon I created) are petty toward the Ravitaiyo (I remember telling you that i the name the Rakatsuki use to refer to the Sun's religion, but if you chose a name I don't remember it D: Sorry) so he was raised thinking that dreaming of the Sun was an omen of some sort, so it'd be pretty neat.

Anyway, I can't recall the entire idea I had for the string ('cause it was reeeaaaallly late when I got to bed), but the story Red String of Fate is Chinese and also in some Japanese myth, and since I used Japan to create the name of (and hopefully some later practices of the Shinto religion, which is also Japanese) the Rakatsuki and Ravitaiyo (AKA Raka and Ravi), I was thinking that maybe in both religions it's commonly believed that a red string tied tired around your finger was the sign of broken promise. That might sound odd, but I was just thinking about how in real life tying a string around your finger is a way to help you REMEMBER promise, so maybe both religions (since they likely have relative roots) had old traditions of shaming people with red strings to show they broke a promise or something? The symbolism here would be the Moon/Sun breaking their promise to their subjects/worshippers by harming Yggdrasil. if that's too far of a stretch, we could just say fuggit and use the Red String of Fate's lore alone 'cause that's pretty cute as is. :3

[Akayaofthemoon]

That would be awesome! I said yes to the names you chose for the religions but for got what they were XD

As for the red string thing, I really like your idea ^_^ it ties in with the moon and sun very well but maybe we can do both the lore and the idea, that it means both things so it has multiple reasons. This could keep Praxis and Aruna thinking one thing but in fact it could mean another or both. What do you think?
