imeeji_frontstage | Support Groups!

Who: Anyone
Where: Hotel ☆G floor
When: Day 320, early afternoon

[People who tune in to this Live notification or people passing through the lobby today will notice that all the tables and chairs from the sitting area and kitchen have been arranged into groups or circles for people to sit at, and each table has supplies on it, like dry-erase tent cards or stacks of poster board and markers for making signs. There are also 'Hi My Name Is ___' name tags in case people feel like making introductions easier. Pink is seated on a couch with Izanagi, waving at the camera.]

Hey fellow idols--unwilling and willing!--it's been an unnervingly quiet chunka time, hasn't it? But the Christmas episodes have come 'n gone and probably a new year started at some point or another! So let's do a recap episode, or what I'm gonna call the Annual Support Group Live. Basically, I've got a simple survey question for ya: what support group could ya start? What sorts of people do ya feel empathy for 'cause ya've been through the same shit? Or what other crazy thing is more common than ya might expect? Ta answer: shout it out! or better yet, make a sign!

[Gestures to the stacks of supplies and name tags.]

There's all kinds of things people might be going through, right? This is a great opportunity to find others like you! Like, "I'm from a world without all this newfangled technology and it confuses me!" or "My world doesn't have magic at all, but everyone else has super powers and it's not fair!" Our units are important, but finding people who have gone through similar experiences can really help - it's just good self-care to make sure you have someone to talk to about your problems after all!

So come one come all! We'll be making noise down in the kitchen 'n sitting area off the lobby! There might even be spillover in the laundry room, who knows. Other units are welcome ta contribute! After all, for Lilis it's a great opportunity ta explore your feelings, and Taisho knows confession has been ritualized for centuries! I'm sure everybody's got plenty ta add ta this Mega-Live! Let's all get some bonding in while stuff's still chill!

((ooc: Top-level to start a "support group" and put the name in the subject line! They do not have to be serious! This is mainly a self-running live though hosts and cohosts may be around, so feel free to go wild jumping threads. Also, making multiple support groups is legit! Please check out the CO-HOSTS TOP-LEVEL if you want to help make this a Megalive or just for additional Live elements you can reference while threading!

Points Tally:

Hosts and Counter-live Hosts: row 1
Unitmates of Hosts or Counter-live Hosts: row 2
Everybody else: row 3))

I definitely do not want to talk about it, so I'll take the distraction.

[ crouches down. ] I can’t say I blame you. Putting this stuff to words isn’t always easiest anyway.

Get on, let’s find somewhere fun to go.

[!!!]

Oh heck yeah.

[gets on!!!]

Hang on tight! [ as soon as doodleman is on him he takes off. ] Where’s your favorite place to go?

[HANGS ON TIGHT WHEE]

Uh, I dunno? The amusement park?

Sure! I haven’t been, so that’ll be a fun new experience. [ enjoy the ride, doodleman!!! ]

[HE IS ENJOYING THE SHIT OUT OF IT]

Have you ever ridden a demon horse monster before?

Not once!

I hope you're enjoying yourself then. [ and that it's helping! ] You'll have to show me your favorite ride at the amusement park, though I may not be able to go on it.

Y'know, you're very friendly for a demon horse monster.

I am doing my best. I realized I wanted to form some meaningful relationships, but that's when those feelings struck me and made things entirely too complicated. Before all of that I had been nothing more than a killing machine. That had been my intended purpose. It's what I was created for and... it... still is, I suppose, but I've just evolved a bit...

[ a halfhearted laugh. ] I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. I want something I'm not sure I deserve, because I can always fall back into bad habits. It's happened once before and it can always happen again...

Well, one thing I can tell you for sure is that the thing about not deserving it is bullshit.

[ he cracks a small smile. ] ...thank you. I feel like sometimes I need to hear that. [ he turns his long neck around to bump his head into him. ] I just realized I never caught your name.

It's D☆☆dl☆m☆n.

D♠♠dl♠m♠n?

[ ... ]

D♦♦dl♦m♦n??

[ grumbles, because he can't pronounce the damn starts properly. ]

How do you pronounce that?

[cackles]

You can just say Doodle.

Doodle.

[ still making a face!!! ]

You should teach me to pronounce that properly.

I dunno if it can really be taught. You either can say it or you can't.

[ he's just going to keep saying it under his breath to try to make it work, because he's a stubborn asshole. ]

[ soon though! they reach the amusement park. ] What sort of ride should we go on first?

I like the rollercoasters, but we might wanna start with something you can fit on.

I might be able to squeeze into one of them... maybe, but we can start with whatever. All of this looks like fun.

Let's go for the rollercoaster, then. I like going fast.

[ nods and starts running for the rollercoasters! as soon as he finds one that looks like it goes fast he jumps over all the guard rails that are meant to line people up and heads straight for the front. ]

Front or back?

Front, of course.

[that's where he is also heading]
