As of April 6th, 2023, Imeeji Idol Productions has concluded.

Thank you for watching! ☆

idolpro

Who: Everyone
Where: Home
When: The Finale

For the last few days, Tokyo-F grows emptier and emptier. The maintenance fairies seem more cheerful and chipper and talkative, being a regular sight throughout the city now. As paperwork gets filled out, processed, and filed, idols slowly leave the city, going to...wherever it is they're going. As they do, the stars in the sky blink out, one by one.

Everyone's come such a long way, haven't they? Each blazing light in the sky reflects the luster in the eyes of a former idol that's spent so long putting on the greatest performance of their lives. Now...the curtain falls, and the actors leave the stage. And as the last idol leaves the city which now belongs to nobody else but its caretakers, Tokyo-F falls dark, the last light of its sun dimming before flickering out all at once. Its light now belongs to those who once made it shine brighter than any other star, and finally - finally, the credits roll.

So with everything that's happened here, all the stories that have been told and all the memories that have been made, there's only one thing left to do, right?

Time to get your best smile on! ☆ Yeah, that one! After all...

☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:* It's your time to shine, Imeeji! .:*・°☆.。.:*・°☆

Who: Everyone
Where: Tokyo-F
When: Dawn of the Second Day

[ And after the dust settles...

Though everyone was presumably wandering about and around Heaven and Hell after Tokyo-F's deletion, every ex-idol (even the renegades!) has been given an invitation to return to the newly restored city, which looks exactly as they left it - minus a giant tree, or, really, any evidence that anything heavenly happened around here. Also...everyone now has UNLIMITED POINTS? You could buy back all your memories right now if you wanted. They don't even play on screens anymore (unless you hit the PLAY ON SCREEN checkbox. sometimes it just checks itself. be careful!).

At broadcast time, The Red Sea Witch appears on every screen in the city, giving an address: ]

Hello, everyone! ☆

As some of you may have heard, Imeeji Productions has been renewed for one last season! A one-episode special, due to ongoing legal issues thanks to our friends in...oh, what was it now? "Heaven"? Gyehehehe☆

As usual, our anniversary is going to be relatively bloodless - a nice relaxing time for our treasured idols! Soon to be ex-idols, living comfy and happy retired lives - once all the paperwork is processed! There's no stamp rally this time around, though. Too much paperwork to get through to get that approved. It's just...a few relaxing days in the city, before they all go to where they want to be.

Thank you, fans, for your support! None of this could have been possible without you ☆ And I'm sure our idols are just as happy as I am! Make sure to send plenty of fanmail, this is your last chance! I'd send plenty of my own to ☆ZRAEL but somebody blamed me for a "hacking all of the systems" even though I barely even know how to use a cellphone! Ehehehe, I'll show them. You hear me, Intensity? I'm going to find you and kill you right in front of Angel and I don't care how much Man☆Eater l -

[ ahem ]

Anyway! This is the Red Sea Witch signing off. Thank you all for watching all this time, and we hope you enjoy Generation 6! Let's end this show with a ☆!

Who: All Heaven Graduates and Idols!
Where: Tokyo-F and Heaven
When: Dawn of the Final Day

Rise! And shine! And holy fuck what the shit is that.

Rising tall above the skyline of the city is a massive translucent tree, which seemingly has sprouted from the deadzone crater and is bathed in light leading straight up to…Heaven? The hotel alarms are blaring, and the maintenance fairies are for once actually present and visible - despite the fact that there's nothing broken.

They're fluttering about frantically, screaming in panic at each other while doing…whatever they're doing. You can catch snippets of their speech -

"What is that!" "What is happening?" "Where is Madame-Administrator?" "Seal off all exits!" "Prepare for separation!"

Heaven graduates, meanwhile, find that all of them are receiving a message on their phones:

Hey, wanna free your friends?

Who: All Hell Graduates and Fugitives!
Where: Vengeance Hell and Liar Hell
When: Dawn of the Final Day

Hello, Employees of Vengeance Hell! You have all been called to a conference in the Imeeji Productions Main Office.

At the center of the room is Asmodeus' recently promoted secretary, adjusting her glasses and holding a stack of papers.

"Alright. I'm sure by now you've all noticed that there is a lot going on. Asmodeus is returning to the office…soon, once everything has blown over. In the meantime, we have a lot of mismanagement to deal with here. Fanmail isn't getting delivered, we're showing nothing but reruns, problems with Tokyo-F's infrastructure have been getting worse and worse, merchandise sales are at an all time low despite the increased enthusiasm after our last handshake event - Now, not all of you are working with Imeeji Productions, but those of you who aren't are graduates of that program. So, it might interest you to know that there's been a group of…renegades, shall we say, trying to snatch the final victory over Pythia from our hands. Now, I'm sure nobody here has anything to do with that…"

She glares.

"But it would be helpful for both us and you if you were to take an active role in dealing with this problem. The unrest amongst the 'fandom' is getting worse by the day, and this morning we seem to have lost contact with Tokyo-F and Tokyo-D. Some of you are going to have to go investigate the latter. I don't think I have to tell you how bad it'll be for your careers if Pythia manages to make a comeback at this juncture. Or, if you still care about your friends in Tokyo-F, how bad an unexpected dissolution of the production will be for them. Mortals don't do well with the Belial's people, you know.

Of course, I'm not Asmodeus. My job is making sure that the trains run on time, that the post arrives when it should, and that everything is nice and clean when he returns. I don't care how you deal with those escapees, or the Damned that are making trouble. I just care that you do it, and get people believing in truth, justice, and the Vengeance way again.

Remember, Asmodeus and Pythia's little fight, the deal with Belial, the resurgence of Heaven - it could've been quiet, but thanks to certain individuals it's very much not, and all of these things have put a really, really important eye on our production. The most important eye in Hell. Needless to say, a visit from Lucifer is a worst case scenario, even worse than losing to Pythia and the Liars.

If you have any questions, I'll be on the top floor raiding Asmodeus' liquor cabinet before getting back to work. Dismissed."

Who: Honey + you
Where: hotel lobby
When: Day 533

[A loud crash opens the broadcast--the sound of Honey deliberately throwing a mug on the floor. But then he kneels and quickly starts piecing it together, the shards smoothly sealing back to each other. Guess who has future is now powers now?]

...Fufu, so this one works too.

...I'm glad. Being able to repair things... I think I like having that ability.

...If you have any objects in need of repairing, please bring it to the hotel lobby. I'll fix it for free.

...This does still need to be a pep!pep! live though, doesn't it?

...Um...

[Honey pauses in piecing the mug back together to wag a finger at a camera, as if lecturing any viewers.]

...Take better care of your belongings. Even though they can be repaired for free, with no cost in materials.

...That should be enough.

...Um... There's also hot chocolate for anyone who wants it.

...I read that free food is a good way to attract visitors to stalls. But to be honest, I just made too much...

[The camera swings around to show a table laden with stacks of mugs liberated from the hotel kitchen, plus a large saucepan of hot chocolate on a hot plate. There's also various toppings for hot chocolate on the table, ranging from the mundane (marshmallows) to strange (ketchup). A big silvery snake is stirring the hot chocolate with a spoon held in the tip of its tail, keeping it from burning.]

[OOC: Just a cozy little live to play with new powers! Come get stuff fixed or get hot chocolate. Feel free to use this post for non-live threading too; general mingle stuff, memories, whatever.]

Who: Everyone
Where: Everywhere
When: Day 530

[ If you were finally getting used to the city's strangeness, brace yourselves—the glitching of buildings and environment this afternoon has turned up to eleven, whole swathes of city just . . . disappearing, like it's still rendering. 3-D geometric shapes, as though the textures were left off—before returning to "normal", except without any color. This continues to course through the entire city—and if you're caught in it, you'll find color escaping you as well, and your consciousness fades . . .

Luckier or more alert idols can witness these idols disappearing, flickering out of existence. There's no time to worry or panic about them though, because the de-rendering is coming for them, too.

The last safe haven is the Dead Zone, which seems to be completely untouched by the glitching and the color removal for the most part—however, the ground where the chain is anchored has broken apart, and underneath the chunks of rock and gravel and grass and dirt is . . . only a void. At least the broken pieces are stable and weight-bearing, floating in place for those who brave standing on them. Should something be dropped into the void, however, it will go completely missing, including idols and living creatures—and although idols can't confirm this without trying it out themselves, they have a sinking feeling that anything that falls through the void here will not revive or return. ]

UH OH | WAKE UP | TOKYO-F RETURNS | OOC POST

Who: Visitors
Where: The Deadzone
When: (to be slotted into the timeline later)

[There wasn't much warning for this- a certain boy keeps almost every inch of his skin covered up, and doesn't have the eyes to realize something is amiss himself even when a couple of weird flower tattoos show up on his body. But tonight (and it is an UNGODLY hour of the night), several other idols feel oddly compelled to meet each other at the deadzone...]

Who: Everyone
Where: Everywhere
When: Day 528 (night) through Day 529

[Tokyo-F is still going haywire, though things seem to maybe?? be getting their shit together???? after that awful Go Fish game.

Still, a storm blowing in isn't helping matters very much—especially since the storm seems to be more than a little haywire itself.

Some areas might be raining cats and dogs, while two steps away it's snowing gently. Can you dodge the pockets of bad weather to stay warm and dry?

Some areas might be raining cats and dogs...in plushie form. How good is your umbrella against stuffed animals? What about glittery purple rain, or snowflakes the size of your head?

And don't forget the wind. Some of the smaller creatures that have appeared throughout the city are getting tossed hopelessly about—possibly right into your face. Can you dodge your way to somewhere safe(r) before some slime in unwilling flight smacks you with an extra side effect or two?

At least everyone's still got their mixed-up powers to help keep them safe...]

[OOC: Mingle time! The general hook is that a big old storm has blown in and it's making all the ways Tokyo-F is hecked up, well, worse. I've written up some examples, but everyone is free to make up their own bad weather (just keep the event guidelines in mind!). You can also only run into good weather if you're not interested in playing with storm effects.

Otherwise, this post is open to whatever shenanigans you're up for. Game status effects, random event status effects, more unitswap shenanigans... Tokyo-F is your (fucked-up) oyster.]

[BEDE makes their questionably triumphant return! Valor leads the way, carrying Xiao like a potato sack over one shoulder. It's only fair.

Once inside, Valor deposits Xiao on the nearest couch before sprawling out on another couch and that seems to be all the moving he's prepared to do today.]

idolpro

Who: Naughty little fishes
Where: Game Tower
When: Day 527

[So there you are, minding your own business on a completely normal day.]

[Then you blink —

[— and find yourself, and many other idols, in an unfamiliar room.]

[The room is large and round and made of glass, like a globe. ...No, like a fish bowl.]

[On the other side of the glass walls, you can see indistinct shapes moving around, but the glass distorts the light so much that anything farther than arm’s length is just vague smears of colors and shadow blending with your own reflection. But something is there. Possibly a lot of somethings. ]

[Two formless shapes approach the glass, and as they do, their images resolve into the shapes of a pair of twins, one grinning while the other pointedly looks away from his brother. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the one who actually looks cheerful about being here is the first to speak up:]

Guess what~? You’ve been chosen to play in our very first game. Isn’t that exciting?

[He throws his arms out theatrically.]

Especially after soooo many boring games. The audience is looking for excitement and thrills here! Why not take the chance to really cement yourself as the fan favorite while you have the chance? Heck, it might even fix your little... “problem.”

[There’s a beat of silence, and he moves to elbow his brother who shoots him a “hey what the hell?” look before reluctantly facing the gathered idols.]

...Make sure you protect yourselves. Otherwise...

[He just lets the thought trail off before looking away again. His brother leans on him, resting an elbow on his shoulder as though waiting for him to continue before finally giving up and shaking his head with a sigh.]

You heard him! Give this game all you’ve got - got it?

idolpro

Who: Everyone
Where: Everywhere
When: ~~All at Once~~ Night 526 to Morning 527

[ At the darkest hour, those who are awake will see their shadows growing longer and longer under the city lights. They stretch and stretch—and even climb up the lamps, up the sky, to eclipse the moon itself. It isn't completely dark—it's like the current light's been lampshaded—but just for a brief, brief moment,

The whole world is grey.

—and then the color returns, but not all entirely in ways that you recall them being. The sky is at points purple or green, the grass is red and glittering, the buildings seem to be made entirely of glass at times and entirely of wood at other times. Each shift in your vision accompanies a visual "glitch", like pixelated television noise, and it's horrible for the eyes and head.

It's not just the city that's unstable, either; idols will find that their own colors are mixing, swapping, glitching—sometimes it's not just the colors but entire articles of clothing, as though quickchanging in a character creation screen—to one outfit or another. Sometimes it feels like there's an internal change too—like your guts are swapping out . . . or like your heart isn't yours . . . is that your neck, or someone else's?

Another oddity: the shadows are gone, even now in the middle of the night. Occasionally they flicker back—when the building or grass is "correct", what it used to be—but they aren't there for long, and disappear once more. Your own shadow though, and the shadow of other people? Completely gone, even when you feel "correct" again.

If you're looking for any clues on what's happening, who the culprit is, you might be able to catch a glimpse of dancing shadows on the ground, whisperlaughing at each other and running away as soon as they're seen by any idol. At the crack of dawn, one shadow holds up what looks to be the shape of a cylinder—shakes it—and then "sprays" shadow paint onto a nearby wall.

#SAYOGLITTERNARA

As the sun rises, those dancing, laughing shadows disappear—only the "paint" on the walls remain—and you idols are left to deal with the rest of this chaos. . . ]

Where: the Tower of Games
When: Day 526

[Hang on, wasn't there a game just yesterday? Are some or all of your status effects still lingering?]

[Fortunately, it looks like this is one of those non-mandatory games, where you can just help yourself to some snacks and wander off if you want. Or you can stay a while and play some cards for points.]

[As usual, there's a lot of food and drink of every type, and especially warm drinks like hot chocolate and mulled wine to help take the chill off on such a cold winter day. There are plenty of comfy-looking couches and wing-backed chairs this time, too.]

Who: Robin, Freya, Lupine, Honey, and you!
Where: Hotel lobby
When: Day 524

[A small group of people in the lobby - Robin, Honey, Freya, and Lupine. Robin has his text-to-speech all typed up and ready to go.]

Since the fanmail included Christmas items last time, it must be around the start of the new year. So, I thought it would be good to do a live for New Year's resoutions. They can be anything you want, even if they're little things. I vow to make more friends this year.

[ Freya winks, twirling a pen in hand. ]

It's been a while, everyone, hasn't it? But it's probably time I actually make a proper appearance and push myself out a bit more. And so-!

[Indicating parchment and paper, she lifts a slip up.]

What better way than to keep to your resolution, than to write it down? Keep it around for some accountability! I won't make you swear on your honor or anything, so it's perfectly safe. The true punishment would be letting yourself down!

[ Lupine's a little bit amused, clapping a hand lightly on Robin's shoulder. ]

And when you've got all that done, well. You know. Take a picture, it'll last longer.

[ Commemorating the resolutions, whatever, he's here to give everyone extra points. ❤

That leaves Honey to go last, since he has the most to say.]

...The turning of the year has been celebrated across the world since ancient times. The end of one year and beginning of another has long been treated as an appropriate time to renew vows or make promises.

...New initiatives for a new year. Quite appropriate.

...In recent times, New Year's resolutions have become focused on self-improvement, either through the continuance of desirable traits or the destruction of undesirable ones.

...Only by continuing seeking out new experiences and skills can human beings improve and move closer to perfection. Stagnation only leads to death.

......

...I will now demonstrate some common New Year's resolutions in order to satisfy the requirements of a pep!pep! live.

...Continuing good practices: I will continue to practice idol activities with Tsukasa-kun and Natsume-kun.

...Changing undesired traits or behaviors: ...This one is rather difficult. Um... I will become less empty.

...Accomplishing a personal goal: I will return to Eden one day. Though I suppose that one might take several years to accomplish.

...Otherwise improving one's behavior: ...I will return library books when I'm done reading them instead of waiting for them to disappear from my room.

...I look forward to hearing everyone else's New Year's resolutions.
