fanmail!

[idolpro]

Who: You!
Where: the Hotel Lobby!
When: Day 193

[ It's the new Fanmail of the new year, but remember, months and years and even time itself is just a human construct! It's only been 193 days, how could it have been a new year? But then again, how can you prove it isn't a new year?

The lobby is full, as usual. The doors are blocked with fanmail, as usual. There will probably be a bonfire at some point, at usual. Happy fanmail! ]

Comments

[softlyfalling]

[ Shrike's standing here with some fanmail in hand, but even though she's looking down at it her eyes aren't quite focused on it, even though the art is very beautiful and the subject matter is very striking.

Always an exciting time, fanmail. ]

[forgottenmercy]

[guess who comes drifting up, silently] Ah....?

[marsascending]

[ This gets a laugh, this gets a BIG laugh, bemused headtilt, shit-eating grin. ]

You know, my wardrobe is sorely lacking in hats these days.

[asonoficeandfire]

[settles on a sofa in the lobby to sort out his mail. the keychain goes on his bag, it's very cute?? he has so many of them now. he looks a little confused at the cat collar because why would he wear this and when?]

I'm not a cat myself, I just like them...

[putting the collar to the side to look at the doujinshi, though he grabs and reads the accompanying note first, face immediately twisting into ill concealed annoyance as he glares at it, voice lowering with a grumble under his breath as he speaks mostly to himself]

...no, I'm not telling.

[if anyone wants to swipe the doujin before he looks at it, it's right there]

[learntofly]

[ Ignoring the doujinshi in favor of poking the cat collar instead ]

You've got some weird fans, huh?

[intimitation]

[Honestly, he was preparing for terrible Silence fanmail so he was completely blindsided by the grandpa porn and sports boys porn, JUST COMPLETELY BEWILDERED BY THIS SUDDEN DEVELOPMENT!!

This masterpiece just has him feeling confused and the poster is okay but also bully.

All in all, his opinion is: what.]

[marsascending]

[ looking over his shoulder—

okay yeah that's baffling. ]

.........what.

[crystallinelore]

[Noah... mostly appears to be mesmerized by his fanmail video.]

That is... unbearably catchy.

[bondsofsuffering]

[After a couple of loops...]

How long is it?

[bondsofsuffering]

[Izanagi seems generally amused at his two letters but one in particular has him bursting into laughter.]

[endurism]

[Head tilt.]

That entertaining, hm? Does that mean the haul was less strange this time?

[tenebraecious]

[getting only a few pages into a doujin before neatly ripping it up a few ways]

That's enough of that.

[liarliarliar]

[Time for B to flip through his fanmail!

This doujinshi of him proclaiming himself the real damsel when K is taken away gets a snort. The fox plushies get tucked against his chest with one arm. Babies. His. Thing shipping fanmail makes him snort again. He kind of happy sparkles over the volleyball uniform art. MAYBE GOLD WILL LIKE IT???

The spicy~~~~~ doujinshi turns him a little redfaced and he's tucking that away. :> Nice. Although the stickers make him sputter with embarrassment. But the paper doll pleases him a lot. BIG CUTE!

This letter makes him annoyed though.]

One boy only all other people denied sorry spells.

[shutthefoxup]

What'd popular boy get?

[syckophant]

[Eichi just gets two plushes. He looks... a little sad about it, actually. But he's keeping a smile on anyway as he investigates the one of Artemis.]

Ah... This one looks like it could do with some fixing-up. Something to do.

[intimitation]

...did someone let a dog chew on it??

[showmelove]

[Venus only has two pieces of fanmail but she is really??? Ecstatic??? It's really weird, she thought she would be more weirded out by this, but she holds up the temporary tattoo sheet in awe.]

Oh wow!!! These are so neat!

[Her eyeball tattoos look at her skeptically.]

Oh, where should I put them? And... um, how do I respond... to the other one? [It's just a letter, but she feels a need.] Because I do uh, really like Wild City, they're all really good and nice...!

[endurism]

[Oh dear...]

You might be too kind for this place...

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Just. Blinks down at everything, taken aback.]

[His fanmail is all surprisingly wholesome for once??]

[At the first letter he smiles, and folds it up carefully to put in his pocket.]

[The second two make him flush. Those get pocketed, too, but, more hastily... though he keeps the chapstick.]

[The picture of him riding a pony toward a rainbow gets a smile.]

Dude... this is super cute.

[And then he gets to the last one and does a double-take.]

Holy crap. This is badass. If the point shop's got something like this thing, I'm getting it for sure.

[justfuckingtryit]

[He reads the first letter through and smiles, faintly - takes out the attached earrings and puts them on. The letter he folds up, careful, and puts into his pocket.]

[Then he opens the doujinshi, and -]

[Oh.]

[Oh,]

[we_meet_again]

[meanwhile, across the room, cobalt is wearing a matching expression]

[oh]

[oh no]

[lefthandpath]

[you guys...

he just.

holds up his newly attached red hand like WHAT THEN???]

[rollplayinghouse]

[Morning Glory (née Maki) unpacks a few things from ZRAEL's box. There's a hefty doujin full of girls that she glances over, but then is distracted enough by her papercraft morning glory that she doesn't notice a short note about Griffin as it falls to the floor, potentially in front of passers-by.]

Ah... how pretty...

[nohalation]

[She's looking through all of her letters, smile on her face.]

I do not often get fanmail that includes Kuzuebiko and Camellia, and they're all so nice . . . I feel lucky today~ ♥

[learntofly]

[ Has only got one letter, but she seems dryly amused by it anyway ]

Shark super powers would be cool. I'm hoping for weirdly specific beastmaster powers.

[iamverybadass]

[ Talon's sipping at an overly sweetened coffee drink while he considers his own fanmail.

The shirt, though objectively amusing, gets dumped straight into the trash with an irritated grumble.

He makes a vaguely annoyed face at the note, not quite settled on how he feels about it and muttering under his breath ]

We were always brothers...

[ And of course there's the doujinshi which he's reading with some obvious amusement ]

[shutthefoxup]

[Rests his chin on Talon's shoulder]

Get anything good?

[letgrow]

Ah....s-so much...

[nohalation]

Camellia is popular this time!! Wow!!

[theyregooddogs]

[there's so much, oh god]

No stuffed animals, at least. They're starting to catch on.

[unbr8kable]

But what will you cuddle with if not infinite stuffed animals.

[unbr8kable]

New year, new batch of tentacle porn...

[that said, it still gets gathered up with the rest. The paper doll in particular gets a second look; someone had a lot of time on their hands]

[calmthefoxdown]

... You get tentacle porn?

LIVE: CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM

[mind_blown]

[guess he'll kick off this dumpster fire today]

Since Joker's being a lazy fuck, guess I'll kick off the "let the audience know how you really feel about this shit."

[he is dumping literally all his fanmail in there and flipping off the camera.]

Re: LIVE: CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM

[tenebraecious]

[dumping a collection of papers in there, calm as she watches them burn]

[bloodyrose]

[ This whole schpiel causes nothing but a flat response. ]

My real name is Zero. They easily could have drawn "Nothing" from that.

[time5kip]

I get the feeling your fans have decided to run with a conspiracy theory, regardless.

[screenedcomments]

[holding two plushies of her friends and also a highly cursed drawing/letter of admiration]

W-what am I supposed to do with any of this?

[not throwing it away though is she]

[criminaljustice]

[... oh. cute plushies.

meanwhile, he has a large JokerMars doujin in hand.]

Well. Whatever you don't wanna keep, you can toss it into the fire?

[juts a thumb over at the dumpster fire his unitmate started]

Later, in the Vid Room

[we_meet_again]

[Today the Vid Room looks like an empty classroom. Cobalt’s leaning against an empty desk, with mail piled onto the desks around him. Visible through the window, snow is falling gently into the school courtyard, and the room itself looks warm and comfortable in contrast.

Cobalt’s antlers are wound with a string of battery-powered copper wire fairy lights, and there is a note that says “hap sole stiss” written in crayon hanging from one tine like an ornament.]

Hello again! It’s been a while! I hope you’re all doing well out there.

Fanmail came again today! I got so many wonderful gifts and messages, and I wanted to express my gratitude for all the nice thoughts. I haven’t done a fanmail response in... over a month now, gosh! Sorry about that. I got so carried away with everything that was going on. As you know, we had quite a few games and special events, and we celebrated various holiday traditions such as New Year, Christmas, and Solstice. One very kind person sent me these lovely string lights for Solstice --

[he nods, and the tag flaps around]

-- which are delightful! And I’ll be wearing them for the rest of the day as thanks!

Even though I’ve been bad about doing vids, I’ve kept all the mail I’ve been sent. So if you’ve sent me something, don’t worry, it’s right here!

[He grabs a letter off the top of the pile]

OKAY, LET’S BEGIN!

[we_meet_again]

I’ll start with the letters. This one is all the way back from Maintenance!

[He reads it aloud]

“I'm so glad I was lucky enough to hear that the Imepro idols were doing in-person meet-and-greets! It's crazy how little advertising there was for it! But I'm not mad, since I got to be there! You wouldn't believe how jealous people are when they see the selfie I took with you.

Thanks for the clout!

I hope someone rubs your nubbins, I really wanted to do that.”

Thank you so much for stopping by! That was a lot of fun and I had a good time meeting everyone. Next time you are welcome to rub the nubbins, if I have any at the time. I’m giving you permission in advance. They are very soft.

[nihilmancy]

[Interesting batch today!

Sekhmet pensively reads the words of a poem, with a definite Feeling passing across her face before she sets it aside.

The letter gets other, seemingly pained emotions, and is set aside.

The first art makes her smile despite herself.]

Is this blasphemy or something? I don't know. It's cute.

[The second art just gets a blush, and she puts it away, but isn't getting rid of it either.

Likewise the sexy art of her unit is a bit much, and is quickly put away but she looks slightly happy at seeing herself depicted as beautiful and desirable.]

Well. This was all something, wasn't it?
