Who: Lupine, Izanagi, Serenity, Felicity, Alisaie, Hades, Emet, CrowValor, and you...!
Where: Setagaya Public Theatre
When: Day 410, night

[ Camera on, and there's the briefest fiddling with it before Lupine's grin is firmly in frame. Hey Imeeji hey. Panning back a bit, until the other hosts are also in view: Izanagi, Serenity, Felicity, Alisaie, Hades, and Emet. Luckily, the stage they're currently standing on sure does have room for all of them and more. Lupine gets his phone set up on something out of frame, then steps back and gives the camera a little wave. ]

'Evening, everybody. Well. [ Cracks the knuckles of first his right, then his left hand. ] I don't know about you, but I actually don't mind a good fight. [ Fierce grin. 'Don't mind', right. ] Armed, unarmed; with powers, without — however you want it. If that sounds like your idea of a good time, or even just good practice, come on down to the public theater. We'll... 'explore' each other's fighting styles. [ And he tries to make it sound less dirty than Izanagi's original phrasing did to him, but he's only marginally successful, so after a beat Lupine just leans into it with a winking mock-salute. ] Maybe even pick up a trick or two for the next game.

[ That and the way Lupine holds the camera's gaze for a few seconds are as close as he's getting to explicitly offering to help anyone who might not already know how to fight. Then he folds his arms over his chest and turns to Izanagi expectantly. ]

[ Izanagi waves, giving a wink. ]

And of course, I’ll be on hand to provide healing as needed! So feel free to whale away on each other until you’re good and ready to get fixed up with some first class “Medical Care!”


This isn’t quite the kind of entertainment this place was intended for, but-- [Serenity places her hands on her hips and grins.] Today, we’re making our own rules! So let’s turn this place on its head. Make as much noise as you want. Make a mess of things, even.

[ oh shit. it's sheep cue. lifting up a doll-jointed arm with a wave, piping up from her robosheep: ]

Oh, and don't worry about damages! If anything breaks—uhm, people not included but prosthetics definitely included!—I can help with getting it all repaired with some—[ briefly wavering like she forgot the next word ]—Emergency "Maintenance!"


So, whether you're keen to show off your skills or build on them for the future, to gain a fuller understanding of our units' powers, or simply looking for a way to work off some stress, we're here to help.

[Alisaie cracks her knuckles. Shoots a rather barbed look at Emet.]

It's educational. Practically a community service.


[Hades, standing between Emet and Alisae, absolutely unaware of any tension between them, puffs his chest out and places his hands on his hips.]

More importantly, it is a competition! May the best woman, or man, win!


[Emet gives a brief, blown kiss to Alisaie sporting star shaped sunglasses and drinking a fruity drink with a parasol in it. He doesn’t say anything. He doesn’t need to. Drinks are on BARiTONES before, during, and after the duels. Drink Responsibly(TM).]

[ And that's that! Joint live is a go. Hosts so far: LiliS, sIV, pep, BE=DE, fin, HSS, AlcheME, avante, and BiT (missing Taisho, WC, and ZRAEL); hosts from those units will receive 2150 points, non-host participants will receive 1700 points, and everyone else will get 1450! Because if it's a competition, it's definitely also a game, right? 😘 ]



((ooc: 100% shamelessly stealing an idea from the meido live, we've reserved slots here for host and additional / counterlive TLs, and seriously pls don't feel like you're signing yourself up for a threaded-out fight by stopping by. ♥ If the character is willing but the flesh player is weak from hunger games...! Or else just doesn't like fight threads, they're an acquired taste. ♥ Hand-waving super welcome, just come get ur fighty CR on.))

[WELCOME BACK TO THE TOWER, IDOLS. Follow the sound of the ringing bell!!

There are...a suspicious number of candles everywhere. And some plushies, which are also missing their heads and replaced with candles.

and also a bunch of people shaped wax effigies as candles. With Baby Sheep sitting in the center (as a hologram)]


"You gotta be more serious, you can't just UNZIP people all the time~~ BAAA-H. I say! I'm gonna show everyone how super serious I can be!!"


[Suddenly, the following idols will find themselves in people sized candle holders:
Lucifel
Frosty
Black
Zhongli
Gladio
Aradia
Orchid
Childe
Eichi
Serenity

For now they can talk and interact, but can't be removed from the pedestals. Also there's a wick growing from their heads, not alarming. Powers are on for everyone EXCEPT the hostages.]

[ The boxes the boxes the boxes the boxes the boxes the boxes the boxes the boxes the boxes the boxes buy gold.

Besides the copious amounts of fanmail, The Hound is still hounding about and also there's a plaque on the wall between the elevators?

It reads:

IN MEMORY OF THOSE LOST TO FRIVOLITY
REMEMBER, REMEMBER, REMEMBER
STOP BLOWING THINGS UP.


While you're admiring the plaque or being buried in mail or playing fetch or whatever—your phone buzzes. ]

Producers: Hello, hello, hello!
Producers: We are happy to announce that there are several new and exciting changes to this production on the horizon, courtesy of certain individuals who we are convinced hate this program specifically!
Producers: But we digress, we digress!
Producers: With all the exciting change that's been going on, we think it's time for you to all join in! Family and Nature are old news, it's time for ✨✨✨PLAY✨✨✨ and ✨✨✨CHANGE✨✨✨!
Producers: These are the best themes you'll ever have! Please remember to send several petitions to keep them in place indefinitely, preferably with a good review of the staff member who suggested them.
Producers: Oh, and please remember, remember, remember!
Producers: When your work piles up, and the stress starts to get to you,
Producers: never forget the times that you felt happy!
Producers: When overtime is unbearable and there's no vacation in sight,
Producers: Always remember your happy days!

Who: You!
Where: Game Tower
When: Day 399, after the other posts

[ When you enter today's Game room, you'll find yourself in a spacious cave with a skylight. It's dark in the sky right now, but there are soft star-like lights hovering around, harmless to the touch. The ground is carpeted with soft moss and grass, and despite the size of cave, it feels rather homey and comfortable. Even if there is a massive feathery beast in the middle of the cavern.

It glows, not so brightly that it's hard to look at, but a soft chromatic light that pulses with its breath. Currently, it's perched on a nest made of . . . books? Books, jewels, clothes, parchment—all valuable things, to be sure, though some are odd choices for hoarding.

It lifts its head, looking toward you with a gentle, intelligent stare, before directing its head to an off-shoot cavern decorated with a banner of your unit's color. ]

[We're stuck feeling each others' feelings! Hurrah?]
[personal profile] idolpro
Who: Idol chefs!
Where: Game Tower Lobby & Home
When: Day 390, early evening

[ Up until now, players in the game will have been dealing with the empathy bond still being present, but now—as everyone's phones begin to buzz, they can start to feel the empathy bond melting away . . .

. . . well, the winners can feel that, at least. The losers, along with Taisho Roman Revolution(?) still feel the empathy bond going strong, even combining with other unit members who didn't play upon close physical proximity if people aren't careful (IF people OOCly want to play with that!).

The empathy bond will disappear after an IC day or two. Until then—just as it was with the game, those who are connected cannot shut themselves out from their unitmates.

The fans on the disco ball wave you goodbye, and also all of them are holding "TAISHOUBU" signs for some reason. They seem excited for Taisho to be stuck with the empathy bond. Is this . . . fanservice?

You can take your aprons home, along with your dishes! ]

Who: Idol chefs!
Where: The Game Tower Cooking Show
When: Day 390, afternoon

[ Game time! Everyone who shows up is given a unit-themed cooking apron before being ushered onto a circular stage that divides itself into twelve sections—each section is a kitchen for the corresponding unit! The center is the judging table, though there aren't any hosts there. Instead, there is what looks to be a disco ball with a number of people with imeeji idol merchandise and signs—are they fans? Some of them are holding signs like "TAISHOUBU!" and "☆ F☆R L☆F☆". Their merchandise are easier to parse than their faces—if you concentrate they might be distinct for just a moment, but they'll fade into the recesses of your mind as soon as you look away, even if you've got a photographic memory. These are . . . fans? The fans are the judges, maybe?

That feels a little weird, doesn't it? To finally see their faces—not really, given how you can't concentrate, but—

Oh. Maybe you didn't expect to feel that way. No—is this feeling really yours. . . ?

You'll find, as soon as another member of your unit joins the group, a strange sense of something filling your mind—like there's someone else with you, sharing that same space with you. You can't read their thoughts, not quite, but—their emotions? You can feel every single one of them.

You might try to shut the emotions out, but it's impossible to shut them out for long—the more you try, the less effective it becomes and the more sensitive you become, as though they were well and truly your feelings.

. . . And you're supposed to cook like this? ]

[ This morning Live has been brought to you by a pair of sports twins donning aprons, standing behind a table lined with small sample-sized cups of red curry, which look increasingly red from one end to the other. ]

Come start your morning with a challenge of the body. Place a bet on how many spicy samples you can handle without needing a drink of water and one'a us will raise ya or call your bet. Match or beat us and you'll get a box of ice cream or chilled alcohol. Whichever ya want.

Unless... ya don't think you're tough enough for 'em.

(( Avante/WC Challenge and Rile Up Live! Plus a theme bonus for Beat the Heat, so 650 for hosting teams and 400 for all other units. ))

Who: Stiletto, Black, any other fight nerds with no chill.
Where: Shinjuku Gyoen
When: Backdated to day 376

[It's a beautiful day for a publicly broadcast murder!

The video clicks on to show a spot in Shinjuku Gyoen. There are cherry blossom petals blowing in the air in perfect Dramatic Anime fashion. Did someone shake the nearby trees just before starting the video precisely to achieve that dramatic effect? Possibly. You'll never know for sure.

Stiletto and Black are facing each other a few meters apart, both wielding swords.]

Well then, [says Black.] Shall we--

[And that's how far as he gets before Stiletto lunges at him, sword at the ready, and stops with the tip of the blade just at Black's throat. She grins.]

Though you would be my opponent, Black of Taisho, that is not the extent of your use to me. Summon others that would cross blades with me... or perhaps with yourself, should you survive our duel. Or would a single victory be enough to sate you?

[Black looks taken aback for a second - apparently not every part of this dramatic display is scripted - before grinning as well, as widely as Stiletto. With confident accuracy he too points his sword at Stiletto's throat. Then turns his head (to the extent the sword at his throat allows it) just enough to face the camera.]

I would order anyone able and willing to come to Shinjuku Gyoen to fight miss Stiletto here. As you can see, I am forced at swordpoint to issue this command. [Such coercion!! That's why he's smiling.] Although a fair warning: it is my understanding that this person will happily fight to the death.

As for myself... [he says, turning back to Stiletto.] My satiety comes from quality more so than quantity. Others are welcome to make their case for a fight, certainly. My answer will depend on how beautifully you will bleed.

[OOC: ☆ZRAEL/Taisho double live! Corruption and Order, respectively.

You're welcome to simply reply to the video, or to show up in person for a fight!
Note: Stiletto will likely fight you. Black won't for... reasons, although he might take requests for a later date. Obviously there will be violence in this post.]

[GOOD MORNING TAISHO. You wake up (or come home) today to find a new guy with an eyepatch hanging out on one of your couches, shamelessly in leggings and a crop-top with a peacock on it, because some people have to have stylish pyjamas -- or just really showy ones...

He's already picked a colour, so he's just chilling now. He waves when you come in, totally relaxed and with a smooth, friendly tone.]

Well, hello. I suppose you're my new roommates?

[ The day after a massively traumatic game--that's the perfect time to host a Live, right? No? Shit. Someone must have forgotten to tell this Pep!Pep! Because he's definitely hit the button on his phone to call MEDIA ATTENTION to himself. ]

Sure does seem like we have lots of new faces around here lately! How was that game for you all--bad enough for you? Don't worry, they've got lots more bullshit in store for all of us.

But don't let it get you down--actually, that's the subject of today's Live. See, we could in theory handle our collective grief and outrage with grace and aplomb... but let's face it, we don't have enough therapists here for that. Guess that just doesn't make for good ratings, eh, Producers? But you know what they say, the show must go on. So let's have ourselves a good ol' fashioned serious pep!poll about it: our favorite ways to ignore our massive trauma!

Myself, I prefer booze.

You might have noticed I was missing during that whole murder spree You-KAI was on and if not I don't blame you because I'd be weirded out if you actually tracked down my movements.

But anyway. I was killed, my body was not found, and now I need to drink blood. Truly a Unit tradition, really.

Any volunteers for, you know. The near future?

When: Day 376, morning

[So an entire new Graduates Visiting Center got dropped on Day 371 or something but presumably everyone was too busy dealing with murder or the avoiding there-of to go appreciate it. Things have chilled out for the time being though, and surely some have been thinking of those who left (or those who left have been thinking about those left behind), and are curious what there is to see and do, especially if you have a visitor.

Did you know, on the 7th floor you can find:
[...] the Ginza Chandelier Sky—a lounge with a charming view of the city and its lights. Next to the Ginza Chandelier Sky is an art gallery, though it seems to feature primarily portraits of Graduates.

Mostly the rest of the floor is wedding stuff. It's better than the nightmare merch level though...! So ANYWAY, why not come enjoy some of the Many Many offerings to be found at the MITSUKOSHI shopping complex? Or maybe you've got other places to be?]

there are cats...everywhere, at the cafe this morning. the whole place seems to have been inadvertently turned into a Cat Cafe. Pay no mind to the fact that all these cats are strays off the streets that seem to be attracted to the smell of uuuuuh the decaying burning flesh of this one you-kai.

oh yeah, dabi is there. where has he been? don't worry about it

he looks half awake as he gets a coffee and stares at the camera as cats crawl around]



This counts as a live, yeah? Display of power. Or I guess it's granting a wish for some of you freaks. Come by in the next hour and get a pair of cat ears.
