@Lonewolf685 Nah, we gotta leave room for Nessie should @Sonnambula return. Besides, being in a team of 4 isn't something Stripes would willingly do.

Mmm, but I think I'm gunna be in the mood to post tomorrow.

@The 42nd Gecko Yoooooooo, Bonnie bae know who she's teaming with?

It has been many years since I've roleplayed, but I need to learn how to write creatively again.

It's alright mate. I've been doing this for close to two decades and while I've certainly improved, I can't say I feel like I'm the biggest fish in the pond. And while you may have missed out on valuable writing experience, you do have more life experience, and what is writing fiction but writing about someone who never existed?

Welcome to the guild! I'm sure you'll find something that catches your interest. We have all kinds of sections on writing advice, but as you mentioned, sometimes you just gotta do it! Most RPs I've seen are relatively judgement free, and as a GM it's always very rewarding to watch a roleplayer's skill grow over time. GM meaning "game master," the big cheese of an RP if you were curious. There aren't too many terms that get tossed around that much, but anyone who wants +1 players in their RP would have no problem showing you the ropes.

Symphony of Espers

Alrighty, so some quick updates.

-YES! We have some new glamors! Backup and PR glamors are here, and you may app them post haste. Your espers should now have a total of 3 silver glamors and 3 bronze ones. More info on the discord announcement.

-Probably gunna aim to start the next operation on the 17th. Though if we need more time to get glamors approved, I might push it back to the 24th.

The next operation is going to be the end of the first arc of the RP. It's gunna be pretty huge, dramatic, and all that good stuff. I don't expect many people to take this option, but if you want your character go out with a bang, just PM me so that it can be a suprise when it happens ICly. Also, I'll let you roll up a whole new esper that's just as strong as the other players. This would also be a good option if you just wanna try something else.

And that's all I got for now. Make those new glamors and buy a plush!

@Ponn I just see Silvia and Olivia tugging on Suzuya's limbs while Xolys tries to negotiate a compromise.

But as I said, it depends how she answers this VERY important question. It may not be an issue...

Grimoiric Heart

I've got my eye on you, Maria. "She's so mysterious!" Like you didn't have something to do with her disappearance

So! seems like the Ministry has decided to leave it up to the class to decide their pairings. Don't you just hate it when you have to pick your own people for a group project?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the current active students are...

Lilac Shimmer
Stripes
Dynasty Queen
Burning Heart
Lady of the Lake (haven't seen them post in a good while, may be inactive)
Ethereal Rose
Lupin

So it should be easy to form three groups of two, and add Nessie to one of them if they start posting again.

Depending on how Burning Heart answered, Stripes could be interested in buddying up with them. Alternatively, she wouldn't mind getting in touch with Lilac or Lupin who are fellow Fable bearers, with a slight preference for the new kid as she seems quieter. Stripes would do everything in her power to avoid pairing up with Ethereal Rose or Dynasty Queen, as they are both legendary grimoire holders with a love for flapping their jaws . But if she HAD to pick one of the, she would pick Dynasty Queen as she doesn't come pre equipped with an oversized minion that saps more of her power away. Lady of the Lake is in a weird place because while she represents a lot of things Stripes hates, I do see her being okay working with her.

Though Stripes also seems like the type that would just kind of wait till the last second unless approached by someone else. So if Burning Heart answers unwisely, she could end up with anyone.

Grimoiric Heart

@Lonewolf685 It's okay, you can just have her respond to it as a passing thing. I get the feeling they were all going to head to bed pretty soon after that.

Except for Stripes, because her player was out of the rp for 6 months she had better things to do than waste her energy in such a silly lesson.

Character Interview Questions

Answering questions today is Davis "Perfection" Gallo, a mastermind from a Danganronpa fan RP.

Q: What do you like to do for fun?

A: "It has been a very long time since I have done anything for recreation's sake. But I would have to say anything that I have not done before. I am Infinite Conquest, and I welcome any challenge that comes my way. Just don't be a stickler about the rules..."

Q:What qualities do you like in a person?

A: "Well, let me think about what drew me to Alice Parker. You could tell she was dangerous with just a look, I really liked that. She was also resourceful, strong willed..." Davis trailed off. "She was a lot of things."

Q:If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?

A: "Excuse me?" Davis leaned forward in his chair. "You cunt! My middle name is literally 'Perfection'! What kind of fool would even suggest that I should change something about myself? YOU ARE A FESTERING BOIL ON MY ASS! AND EVERY TIME I SIT DOWN I'M BOTHERED BY YOUR PRESE- I'm sorry, were there more questions?"

Q:If you could go anywhere, where would you go?

A: The master mind smiled. "The past, as there's no place in the present I couldn't visit."

Q:What is your favorite food, and why?

A: "Do I only get to pick one?" He smirked. "Steak, medium to well-done. Seasoned with my mother's lemon wash. It would have to come with smooth mashed potatoes with a basil garnish. And it would all have been cooked in garlic and butter. Need I even mention that it should be served with red wine?"

Q: When do you do your best work? In other words are you an early bird or a night owl?

A: "I feel that I am more creative in the evening."

Q: Who's had the biggest influence on your life?

A: "Alice Parker... Next question."

Q: How do you feel about your family?

A: "They were rough with me, my parents. But that prepared me for the life I was going to lead. I give them a phone call once a month, but we aren't especially close."

Q: Do you have any particularly noteworthy Allies or Enemies?

A: "No, however, I've played some interesting matches with interesting chess pieces."

Q: What's your pet peeve?

A: "Ignorance. Especially if that ignorance is loud, bold, and brash."

Q: What is your favorite animal?

A: "Bears. No, that wasn't serious. I think my favorite animal would have to be a dog. Medium to large sized preferably. They are more obediant and well mannered than most of the people I deal with."

Q: What are your hobbies?

A: "Working with electronics and gambling. I've been doing more of the latter as of late."

Q: If you suddenly came into a lot of money, what would you spend it on?

A: "In the hypothetical situation where I came into a lot of money, I would purchase what was left of Hope's Peak's assets and move them to Axis Mundai in the states, particularly the prototype build for the hospital. I would then use the tech available to reprogram people. I would overwrite their memories with those of their favorite athletes and celebrities and use state of the art cosmetic surgery to make them look the part as well. Once that was done, I would set about and see if I could find a way to remake Alice Parker. But running out of money would be an issue, so I would host a series of killing games that the right people would spend millions to see and keep my funds in the black. This would continue untill I had a perfect candidate for Alice Parker.

Remember, it's purely hypothetical."

Q: How much time do you have left to live?

A: Davis scoffed. "Now that's a loaded question. Two answers: Infinite, and I'm already dead."

Q: What would you dress up as for Halloween, or your world's equivalent thereof?

A: "I wouldn't. Well, I did dress up as a scare crow since Alice was dressed up as Raven. I may have misunderstood her costume."

Q: What is your favorite scent?

A: He chuckled. "To keep it clean, let's just say donut frosting. My father loved donuts."

Q: What's your favorite season?

A: "Autumn, something about the season of harvest that I just like."

Q: Who do you consider closest to you?

A: "Alice. Someone who's still alive? Alter Ego! What do you mean they don't count? Well, if we're cutting out robots... I suppose the remaining members of the Infinity Initiative."

Q: What power do you desire the most?

A: "Time Travel, if not the ability to resurrect the dead."

Q: How much wood would a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood?

A: "This is a waste of time, why is this here?"

Q: There is no question. Merely differing paths to a preconceived answer.

A: "Alright, THIS is a waste of time!"

Q: What are you most afraid of?

A: "Nothing. The worst thing that could have happened to me has already come to pass."

"Now, let me ask you a question..."

What would it take to get you to commit murder?

Mac was walking down the street. She had gotten dressed, but the water from her shower still clung to her skin like morning dew. Her expression was hard and firm, as she wasn't feeling too playful today.

It wasn't every day you were told that your patron, your boss, had been dishonest with you and was pretending to be something they weren't. She supposed that didn't bother her too much, but "false fate" had decided to let her go without giving her much in the way of an explanation. She had no idea what they had been trying to bring about, and the only thing she had been granted was a replica Endless Eclipse. A fake sword from a fake fate that grants its user answers. She had been using it extensively in the weeks after the Christmas vacation. Her ability to remain hidden wasn't as strong as it had been in the past, but here she was, walking on the street while invisible to most magical girls.

Well, not totally invisible.

Mac had decided that she would act today, and overlaid her invisibility with an illusionary magical girl. It would be almost impossible to detect she was fake without special senses. Even if the illusionary girl had a radically different physique than Mac, her gravity magic could accurately simulate resistance while her illusion magic could add sensations, such as the feel of her jacket or skin. Her illusions might have been weaker, but there was still a lot of experience at work that made them convincing to most people.

She wasn't walking around aimlessly. Mac had located a cradle agent with the help of Endless Eclipse. Valerie seemed to be rummaging around a junkyard to get computer parts. Mac decided to wait near a pile of refrigerators as her illusionary disguise approached Valerie. who was still searching for something.

"Hello!” Came the high-energy voice of a magical girl that Oliver might remember. "I am the mighty IRON MOUSE, sharpest shot in Rochester! One of Oliver's clones was very mean to me and I've been trying to track him down ever since.” She pointed at herself with her thumb. "Don't get me wrong, he was very polite about things after the fact. He's not in any trouble. But now that I am without a patron, I believe he owes it to me to hook me up with a new one. But I understand he's leaving, which means that it falls to one of his acquaintances to hook a girl up.”

"That's right." Stripes confirmed. Indeed, her name was less pretentious than most other magical girls, but that just meant it was easier to remember and call out in a battle. Also short names like that are hella cute, not that Stripes would ever openly admit something like that. It was strictly because she was challenging social norms for magical girls by not having a name like "Magestic Tiger Striped Tabby Chan." Besides, you had girls like Ozma who more or less kept the details of their powers super secret, and she was a teacher, or something? The point was that there was clearly some value in not telling everyone and their brother what your power set was. It was odd, even Stripes could atest to that. The pageless likely weren't collecting data on them or anything, but the secrecy was still there.

But it didn't last for Eins.

Mmm, yes, she was definitely a rambler. Though most of Stripes's teachers were that way, so it was hardly worth fixating on. Ultimately, it was a story that Stripes wasn't too familiar with. She had never been well read when it came to the classics, and since becoming a magical girls she tried to spend as much time reading about fables as possible. The important part was that Eins was a legend, which wasn't surprising and somehow still disappointed her teacher. It was breathtaking how the tuner would go from reprimanding students who sought power from her services to being disappointed because she was a "mere legend." Would she only be happy if her grimoire were a myth? Or was it that even with a legendary grimoire she was considered weak by hear peers? Hmm, this "Drossel" fellow was more complicated than Stripes originally thought. This might be one of the few faculty members she actually liked.

"Oh no, I'm still thinking about it." She'd probably end up getting it anyway, if just to keep up with the other students. "Thank you for your time." It was at this point she noticed that Rose had her attention snatched away by the puppy girl, which meant that she could approach Suzuya without being talked to death.

_@Lonewolf685

The last time Stripes saw "Burning Heart" was when they fought that pageless in the construction zone, though there were too many magical girls present for Stripes to really do much. They hadn't really spoken, but Stripes more remembered her just because she was one of the new arrivals that showed up before she left. Someone with a Fable, and a Japanese student no less. It was an odd combo and one that resonated deeply with Stripes. But she wasn't sure if she liked it or not. Regardless, there was a pretty easy way to tell if Stripes would like Suzuya or not.

She just had to ask them a deeply controversial question.

Stripes ran up beside Suzuya and looked at her out of the corner of her eye. "Hey." the witch said to get her attention. "Are pineapples good on pizza?"
