Week 6


WEEK 6 LOG
Weather: All Week - Clear Skies


    A New Week

    This weekend, you had unusual dreams. For some of you, they brought you to an outdoor arena that none of you had ever seen before. For others, you dreamed of a familiar place: a place that felt like home in some way. And when you fall asleep on Sunday night, you’ll find that dreams of your homes are continuing. Your home may be exactly as you remember it, at any point in time before you arrived here; perhaps there will be slight differences, or maybe it seems like a different version of your home altogether. Maybe nobody else is in it except for you.

    For each dreamer, however, you’ll find that your dreams will start in your own world; but at some point, there will be a mysterious blue light that appears. It looks like a large portal that will lead you to somewhere. Choose to step inside, and you’ll be taken to a random islander’s dream. Alternatively, if you elect to remain inside of your own dream, you may suddenly see a ray of yellow light that appears, and once the light fades, another one of your fellow islanders will appear before you.

    Abilities will work as they did over the weekend in your dreams and in the real world. Everyone will have one of their own, whether it be their existing powers from home or something new entirely. Even the formerly powerless will have something within them -- namely something similar to what the strange boy you saw this weekend could do. Perhaps you now have the ability to launch apples at your opponents at a lightning fast speed. Maybe you can rip a tree out of the ground with your bare hands.

    And most importantly...everyone will remember their dreams when they wake. Your memories of seeing your friends’ homes (or seeing them in your home instead) will remain. These dreams seem to happen every night for the rest of the week.

    --

    Things do seem to return to relative normalcy on Monday morning. Tom Nook’s announcements begin, though he only has two new things to report.

    “Good morning, everyone! I hope you all had a fun weekend, yes? I apologize for not having much for you to do this time around, but hopefully you could all use it as a chance to relax. Now, though, it’s time to get back to work on event planning. I’m hoping to bring K.K. Slider over by August 15th, so if that date does work for all of you to host the event, then that’s when you’ll need to be ready by. Once you’ve all decided on what to do, the other thing I’ll need for you to do is to create flyer designs.

    In my tent are some papers and markers, crayons and what have you. It may see a little...childish, for some of you, but I assure you that your creativity will come a long way in capturing the hearts of all sorts of people in this world! Feel free to submit as many designs as you want, and I’ll send them over to Nook Inc. to make copies of all of them. We’ll work with Orville to get them all sent out.”

    The next and final announcement follows immediately afterwards.

    “And finally, we have an exciting opportunity passed onto me by the Able Sisters! Mabel and Sable are holding a design contest for an Isle Sonrisa pattern to put on some of their clothing! Channel your island spirit into your design and create something that you think best represents the island. You can use the supplies for the flyers to draw out your designs, and submit them to Mabel by Thursday. Everyone will get a participation prize of 5,000 bells, but there will be a grand prize for the person whose design gets selected!”

    He claps his hands for a brief moment in excitement.

    “That’s all for your announcements! Have a wonderful week, everyone!”





Possible Objectives

1. Participate in the Able Sisters' design contest. (Note: Entries can be drawn OR written out OOCly. We will choose a winner via RNG.)
2. Work towards preparing the island for your event
3. Make those flyers and submit them to Tom Nook (drawn or written OOCly is fine)
4. See what's going on in your dreams...



Turn-Ins
Monday / Tuesday / Wednesday / Thursday / Friday

[Dreams were a difficult thing for Scintilla. The vague gray areas between reality and imagination were somewhere she practically lived by now; in others' memories, in prophetic visions, in the reconstructions of places long gone.]

[This, however...this was home, or as close to it as one could get in the brief respite of a slumbering mind. In a snowy climate past some long-abandoned stone ruins was a precarious cliffside...overlooking a massive city lit like the star-patterned sky that had barely begun its shift into dawn.]

[On the cliff's edge was a single grave, adorned only with fresh white lilies and a broken shield bearing the emblem of a red unicorn's head. (Perhaps a familiar one, to those who watched when violet Miqo'te ears moved.) Upon the stone itself was inscribed a set of Eorzean dates twenty-eight years apart, and above them the name Haurchefant Greystone.]


...and he's a bleedin' raccoon, fer Byregot's sake, I feel like I'm losin' my godsdamned mind.

[Sitting cross-legged in front of the gravestone was Scintilla, of course--tail swaying animatedly as she talked as if to an enraptured audience--in a thick accent reminiscent of a sailor in a tavern.]

Says he doesn't really know why, but th' dreams're gettin weirder, if my bein' here ain't hint enough. This realm's nothin' like travelin' to the First--hell, ain't nothin' like the Thirteenth either. Iunno what I'm s'posed to do around here--no gods or Ascians or Garleans to deal with, all that's back at home doin' who knows what.

[Sighing, her tail dropped into the snow as if dejected.]

...If any one of 'em gets hurt while I'm here screwin' about, then what is the bleedin' point of me?
sugooooooooi: Dejected slump. (that's not fun)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-08-04 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
[Serval shivers, hugging herself, and shuffles behind Scintilla.]

Scintilla-san?
sugooooooooi: Confused headtilt. (this is giving me a headache)

How many books do you need for a library I only have 1 and its too hard to read but Dokja san wants a library
Also how do you build one?

[If you happen to be wandering through other people's dreams tonight, you might find yourself in the dark, literally. Welcome to Duskmoon Forest, we've got lots of shades of blue! It's not an altogether unpleasant place- the moonlight shines through the forest canopy above enough to light your way, and the foliage has an ethereal beauty to it. Still, you might not want to venture too far off the path, because occasionally something causes the bushes nearby to rustle- and did you hear a distant howl just now?

Come to a clearing, and you'll find Kevin sprawled out in the grass, hands under his head, staring up at the night sky. Kevin laying around in weird places is nothing new, but this time he has a companion. A wolf pup with yellow fur and a white belly is sleeping next to him, occasionally kicking its legs as if it's dreaming of running. If he sees anyone approach, Kevin will sit up and stare at them curiously.]


How'd you get here?

One book in a box is enough to make a library.
But I can give you another book.
And a bookshelf recipe.

open.
[ During the day coming around house two there's a... particular smell? Like dumplings and distinctively like chicken, for anyone familiar, but otherwise it's got an enticing smell and Dokja seems quite pleased with his work. He quickly peeks out the window, looking around.. maybe looking for someone?

Anyone that's curious enough close by to the window, he may be willing to offer a dumpling. ]
Did you want to try one? I'll share if you promise to keep it a secret.

[ There also looks like to be some parfait cups.. could try and wrangle one of those as well. ]

closed to yjh.
[ Once everything is ready, Dokja is here guiding his partner.. somewhere. He has a clear idea in mind but gives no hints to the picnic area meant for Joonghyuk's birthday. Rather, barely gives him much of the island to look at as he walks backwards in front of his companion. Given the fact he's in his demon transformation with his wings completely flared out as though purposely blocking him from seeing behind the reader.

It looks ridiculous honestly. Like a bird trying to show off its feathers in an attempt of courtship. Not that it's necessary, the two already exchanged confessions over a week ago. ..Two? Either way, he's probably being a bit annoying about it but Joonghyuk will have to deal. ]
If you only put on the blindfold like I asked, I wouldn't have to do it like this.

Do you not trust me, Joonghyuk-ah?
Edited 2020-08-04 02:25 (UTC)
sugooooooooi: Happily consulting someone. (right? right!)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-08-04 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
Wow thanks Minato san!! I have resipes too I can trade you one. What book do you have is it good?
sugooooooooi: Confused but excited. (what's this now)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-08-04 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
I dunno! It reminds me of the Forest Area. Is that your friend?

[She means the wolf.]
regression: my webtoon icons are free to take. DNT the other icons, as they may have been personally purchased by myself (my memory is escaping me). (Default)

[ Joonghyuk has done his part in following Dokja wherever he wants to ambush him. Isn't that enough? He finds it all weird and the show to hide whatever it is from him earns a solid leer. You're lucky he doesn't have his sword... He would definitely attack right now.

His tail lashes side to side, aggravated by the display. Angy.
]

I do not.

[ Which is an obvious lie? ]

[personal profile] afterword 2020-08-04 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
[ Joonghyuk is still free to attack, it isn't as if Dokja can fly out of reach. However, he doesn't feel as if he's in any danger despite the simmering glare. At least try to be a bit impressed? He's doing all of this for you? ]

That hurts. [ A quiet chuckle leaves him, glancing slightly back until he thinks it's fine enough. After all, the smell is bound to reach them now. ] Well, we're here anyways.

[ So wings completely lower to fold against his back, turning with a high flick of his tail to show... a picnic! It's in a nice spot, blanket draped over the grass with some shade from nearby trees. In clear view is a steamer basket where his best recreation of the murim dumplings rest ready to be eaten. Not exact, any special ingredients he couldn't get his hands on clearly, but he did his best to make sure he got everything that was available to him.

Especially with the strict teachings in mind. He moves over to plop down and gestures for his companion to join him. ]
You don't have to look so worried, this isn't a prank.

[ He keeps talking, trying to fill any silence. ] I didn't do that bad of a job I think. Rather, I feel quite qualified in planning any surprise parties back home.
southclaw: (????)

[personal profile] southclaw 2020-08-04 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
Huh? Yeah! This is Karl!

[He seems pretty happy to introduce his bestest friend, but then his face falls a little.]

...I don't think this is Duskmoon Forest for real.
sugooooooooi: Talking about something she's looking warily at. (hard out here when you can't read)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-08-04 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
Aww... Do you think it's another dream? Like that game where everyone got to fight but no one got hurt?

[Serval kneels down to watch the sleeping wolf.]
