Ah, hello! If you're feeling a little tired or otherwise off today, we've set up a nurses' station in the lobby—even if you'd like a glass of water or a quiet activity! Those things are important for health too, after all.

Of course, we're still happy to provide medical assistance of whatever kinds we can! Please, don't be shy.

[ the table is stacked with all kinds of things—water pitchers and glasses, healthy snacks, books (both for medical reference and to read), freshly-brewed tea, first aid supplies—and more?! ]

[ WHAT TIME IS IT? FANMAIL TIME!

On one hand, there seem to be a lower number of letters than usual. On the other, everyone has received at least a dozen photos of confiscated contraband—clothing, food items, etcetera. There's also a notice on some of the boxes:

Due to recent events, the Production will be monitoring submitted fanmail more closely. Your safety is our priority.

. . . But, it's been ages since there was that fanmail with the food poisoning. . . What could this be about? ]

Who: Shirasagi, Natsume, Aster, and yoooou
Where: At one of the teahouses in Imeeji
When: Day 463, Afternoon

[When the live comes on, you’ll see Shirasagi is sitting in the center of one of the teahouses, dressed up in traditional taisho wear. Nearby, Natsume is standing with several traditional pieces of clothing, hanging for others to browse and try on. Aster is also there, camera in tow (and potentially carrying in freshly washed teapots and teacups when needed.)]

Greetings. My name is Shirasagi of Avante En Garde, I appreciate that you have accepted my request to participate and watch this tea ceremony. If you would like to stop by, I would be happy to provide the ceremony for you personally. We have also provided a feast for you of traditional treats that will go along with your tea.

If you may, please thank Natsume of Taisho Roman Revolution for allowing me his time to help provide a ceremony that everyone can enjoy. He has provided beautiful clothes for you to try on and will be willing to assist you as necessary, and if you would like to remember this moment, Aster of Lilis will provide his camera and take photos of your appearance as a token of our appreciation.

[She coughs very lightly.]

...If you would like, I was told that tea fortunes are something others could be interested in. This is not part of the ceremony, but I ...

[Her cheeks turning a little pink.]

I can assist if requested.

Who: SENSIT- no j/k, they're not here right now so it's just this guy
Where: In Sensitiv Dorm
When: MID-GAME/POST-GAME?/IDK He's just here

[At some point a mysterious arrival found himself waking up in an empty dormitary with no memories intact. He sort of peeks out of his bedroom and pitter patters his way around this mysterious new environment.]

Helloooooo, anybody here?

[He calls out a few times, but to no avail. Trying to see if he can find anybody at all he finds himself wandering around in Sensitiv's labyrinth, and still, no one came. After a bit of exploring, he finds himself coming back to the main room, carrying a bunch of snacks that he may or may not have borrowed from the snack bar. Checking the front door and finding it locked, he decided that there's only one solution to this potentially dangerous and terrifying situation.

Sit by the kotatsu and eat snacks until something neat happens.]

[ Wherever they are in Tokyo-F, certain idols feel it: a strange and sudden pang of hunger.


—And the next thing they are aware of is the distinctive chime of the Game Tower's elevators as their doors open to release them to a series of long hallways: one for each unit, and a soft but distinctive nudge in that direction. It's almost more like an instinct, except for the part where (if they hesitate too long) they begin to feel themselves physically pulled along, as though by a phantom hand tugging on theirs.


It seems the long hallways themselves are screens, televising… white scales? …the coils of a white snake, and either the camera is zoomed in very close or the snake is very, very large. Hadassah's voice echoes over the loudspeaker, warm and (of course!) welcoming. ]


Here in Tokyo-F, we have been blessed— to see truly powerful displays of passion:
Devotion, rage, sacrifice! Through sorrow, joy, and death, our stars have shone with that light which guides all of us through even the darkest of times. These are the stories of IMEEJI~ ✧

Now, together, let us return with them to the very oldest story of all.
Perhaps our long-time viewers will remember this one, but no tale is the same in every telling.

This is the story of hunger.

Who: Maids, Staff, and Customers!
Where: a building near the hotel, aka Maid to Self-Care Healing Café
When: Day 439

[ If you pass by one of the abandoned buildings near the hotel, you'll be able to see a big sign outside—♥ Maid to Self-Care Healing Cafe ♥—or maybe you'll catch the announcement being Live broadcasted. Your usual favorite maids (sensitIV!), accompanied by some smartly-dressed members of BARiTONES, waving to you from around a smaller sign that says:

"Proceeds toward medical care and ambulance upgrades! Come visit us!"

[ Inside, the first floor of the abandoned building has been transformed: one half has been draped with sensitIV pink cloth, decorated with cute squishmallow pillows and cute ribbons; the other half is draped with black cloth, with similar squishmallows and ribbons. Both sides are divided by hospital-like partitions. Closer to the door are a few tables that have definitely not been stolen from the dining room (please do not look to verify!) and chairs that have definitely not been stolen from the lobby (please believe us!) to set up like a café, with an even distribution of tables and chairs between the pink and black. Speakers play gentle jazz piano in the background.

Farther back are what seem to be lounging areas—in the pink corner there's a massive pillow fort, and in the black corner there are a few opaque tents, also divided by hospital-like partitions, and are surely meant for sleeping and not anything else, absolutely.

A door on the pink side leads to a hallway, at the end of which is a room with a television and portable karaoke set. Across from that room is the makeshift kitchen-slash-break room, where there are a few chairs and coolers for the foodstuffs, as well as a side entrance for the employees.

A door on the black side leads to another hallway, which has smaller cubicle-like rooms with blankets and pillows, where drunks can go take naps if they need, or where the sinful can get more privacy.

Every maid has either a red ribbon and bow wrapped around their waist and/or a black one—from how the menu looks and from how the floor is divided, it's clear that red-ribboned maids are doing "hearts" activities and black-ribboned maids are doing "spades" activities (and maids with both ribbons are doing both). Each maid is also equipped with a cute bag that contains... cards and poker chips?

Notably, right next to the door is a printed paper following payment options: you can pay 200 points to choose your maid, or 100 to get a randomized one by poker chip. Likewise, special activities are 50 points each… or 25, to get a random one from your chosen menu (or a 20% discount if you get five!). There's a QR code with each payment option; scanning it automatically takes out the appropriate amount of points, depending on what you pay for, and each maid has access to a list of paid guests that updates upon payment. ]

[ ooc note: this is a lowkey live despite the production; please feel free to tag in late if you're dead in the face cuz we, too, are always dead in the face. ]

uh oh

Who: Hm
Where: Well
When: Day 430, night

[ Suddenly, there's a broadcast on every phone and TV. It's a familiar face—Intensity! Isn't it late over there? ]

Attention, duelists and idols of the production!

I see it's been a busy holiday season for you all. Hopefully you're only just a little grey around the edges. I bet you all wish that your biggest problem was bickering over whose over-the-top drunken mistletoe kiss was worthy of audience choice. Heh.

But let's cut straight to the main event.

You might have noticed that our would-be up-and-coming god-wannabe and furby-obsessed Thing #1 has been exhibiting peculiar behavior lately.

[ Cue one slightly awkward pause ]

Well. More than usual peculiar behavior. I'm here to inform you that he was the Mastermind behind a group of idols trying to interfere with the production.

As a result, the idols formerly known as Angel QW5nZWw=, Shogun, and V4MP☆0V3RL0RD –

[ He noticeably does not pronounce the ☆ correct ]

— were all transferred from the production in violation of standard operating procedures. Rest assured that these assets are being hunted down as we speak and will be returned to the production with haste.

In addition, the Vengeance demons formerly known as Leviathan of SensitIV! and Hiryuu of Heart Soldier Senshi took that same opportunity to run off into the sunset, betraying their promise to the Prince of Vengeance for whatever it is justice lovers do in their retirement.

Why am I telling you this so freely? Well, consider all of these little oversights rectified as of this moment. You don't talk about a bug until you've patched a fix after all.

So that's what I'm here to tell you about. The fix.

Effective immediately, Thing #1 is being placed under house arrest. Don't try to remove that ankle bracelet, C. It won't end well for you. And no more mascot revivals or other WcDonalds power for you, AlcheME! That was creepy as fuck yet incredibly on brand at the same time.

As for our missing demons, well, you should really know better than to betray the domain of Vengeance. Wahahahahaha! What were you expecting? I hope you're watching Leviathan and Hiryuu. If you aren't around to give us answers, well we'll just have to see if your units were in collusion with you.

[ The video smashcuts to sensitIV and Heart Soldier Senshi, who may be in various states of waking up right now. Notably, some of them look injured, or maybe like . . . shocked. Like they were electrocuted shocked. ]

Now now, we all believe in innocence until proven guilty. So if they truly had nothing to do with this, then they only have to suffer some minor discomfort this New Years. But if they were involved, well—

Vengeance is a dish best served cold.

And may this be a reminder to you all of exactly who you are dealing with. Don't fuck with this game unless you're ready to ante all in.

Intensity out.

[ The feed shuts off. sensitIV, Heart Soldier Senshi, and C all can be found in various places: C is just outside the hotel, while Heart Soldier Senshi and sensitIV are in Shinjuku Gyoen park. Members of HSS are on the ground, while everyone in sensitIV is in a busted ambulance.

C will find himself completely. . . normal! Maybe it feels like there's a little weight on him. Though, that's probably just the anklet? He doesn't feel any of that power anymore. . . sad.

Some members of Heart Soldier Senshi and sensitIV will find new pieces of jewelry on them. Strange? Stranger still is what happens when someone attempts to remove them. . . ]

Who: Lupine, Alizarin, W, other interested AlcheMEs, available sIVs and avantes and Bad Enders, other concerned friends, and YOU!
Where: The park closest to the hotel. Any open space will do, tbh.
When: Day 427, shortly after / during fanmail

[ Hey, Imeeji! The nasty after effects of the fan invasion can go fuck themselves ten ways from Sunday, but Lupine knows what his job is here, and he's determined to do his damnedest, so this grin is wide and bright and almost touches his eyes. ]

Well! That sure was exciting, wasn't it? And we're gonna miss you all! Some of you more than others. [ Wink! Fun and flirty and not at all furious! ] But we couldn't let the party end like that, so here we are.

[ And we're gonna help ungray some of our friends. ]

[W is also here and waves at the camera, already moving out of the main shot though] I'm just here to babysit! I mean, to roleplay babysitting!

[ With the intro out of the way, Lupine cracks his knuckles, turning to face Alizarin, whose eyes glow a vibrant red as she unsheathes her sword. ]

Well? Let's get this on.

((ooc: Another chill mega live! Headers will be dropped for hosts and counterlives, everyone else please bring your own TLs! This will be attempting to hit notes of: duel/competition (for avantes), medical care and self-care (for sIVs), counter culture and break the chains (for BE). It might also hit roleplay for AlcheME and some notes for LiliS or ☆ZRAEL, but only W is so tsun as to even pretend this is a live for his unit.

ETA: Current Host count: LiliS, sensitIV, ☆ZRAEL, AlcheME, Avante, Bad End=Dead End, peppep!, Heart Soldier Senshi, Wild City. 1650 for hosts, 1350 for other characters from hosting units, 1200 for everybody else.))

Who: You!
Where: Hotel Lobby
When: Day 427

[ What?? The fans just left, and now they're back again—or at least, that's what it sure looks like with the shadowy figures in the hotel lobby accompanying the boxes of fanmail, right?

But idols will only catch sight of the fans briefly, before the Damned are herded out of the hotel, though not without leaving behind various gifts and goodies: "THANK YOU" cards with well-wishes and bouquets of flowers and boxes of little cakes and cookies, though some of them are . . . not so innocuous in intent.

In specific, sensitIV, BAD END=DEAD END, and avante en garde might find poison or razorblades in their gifts. . . which sucks because these units might also be experiencing some difficulties as well. . . . or, maybe they've acquired some souvenirs for the occasion.

On the other hand, WILD CITY, ☆ZRAEL, Heart Soldier Senshi, AlcheME!, and BARiTONES will feel particularly energized, and their fanmail is #blessed, which is to say that there might even be one or two useful things in the fanmail*.

(*must be carryable and non-magical, but may be a weapon—please note in the points shop if you're getting a firearm!)

Finally, everyone gets a notice on their phone: by the end of the day, Hell Graduates and Transfers will have to say farewell—so, spend the next few hours wisely. ]

Who: Lupine, Eichi, Yvette, and you...!
Where: The Love Hotel, various rooms
When: Day 425, afternoon

[ Welp. This sure does seem to be a thing that is Happening. When the live starts, you are obviously on some sort of... set? Tripods with cameras to capture different angles are visible in the background, and... ]

Well. I'm gonna level with you guys, we were already planning on doing something like this. [ Taps his lips. ] But now it's by special request! So, this one goes out to a very special someone in our audience... you know who you are.

[ Hey, it's Lupine! And Eichi, and Yvette, who is definitely classing this whole production up a few notches. ]

We'll also be needing some volunteers from the audience. I mean, twelve months in a year, right? [ According to the request, at least. ] This is gonna be an awfully boring calendar if it's just us.

[ Welcome to a CHEESECAKE CALENDAR live. There are cameras set up in a bunch of the Love Hotel's different theme rooms to help enable different settings, and a selection of Very Special fans (read: the ones who were nearby when they headed in) has been allowed to watch the whole thing take place. So, don't mind the creepy gray audience, they definitely won't be making additional requests while you get photographed!

Hosts so far: LiliS and BiT, though Hades and Tea also got special invites (though no obligation!), because what's a cheesecake calendar without some beef, amirite.

We're so sorry, this was planned for way earlier in the event but several of us were sick, unexpectedly busy, or both! This will be a Very Chill, mingle-style live, with hosts adding additional Host Segments under our Hosts header, and anyone who wants to be part of the photoshoot can drop a TL under that heading. Points total pending, but this should qualify for the Art theme and maybe also the Couple theme if we keep winding up with calendar pages featuring pairs! ]

Where: Tokyo-F
When: Day 424, morning

[ The cryptic countdown pauses: 999999.

Then, the video feed turns on. Who's this—why, it's Man☆Eater! ]

A big ol' congrats to our final winner, who requested: "PLEASE MAKE C KING OF HEAVEN"! Now, we could make that happen for you, but where'd be the fun in that? And hey, we've got a special occasion to celebrate: the start of our fourth season! If the third time's a charm, the fourth's gotta be even better, right? Gyahaha!

They say you should meet your heroes... eh, or wait, was it the opposite? Oh well, too late! 'Cause guess what, you lucky rascal? Instead of sitting back and watching all the action through a screen, you're getting the once-in-a-lifetime chance to meet the man himself! No accounting for taste if you ask your host here, but hey, go bask in his divine presence or whatever! Gyahahahaha!

[ the video shuts off before further explanation can be given, though fortunately you're receiving a text message: ]

IMEEJI'S FIRST HANDSHAKE EVENT BEGINS
FULFILL FAN REQUESTS TO BECOME MORE POPULAR ♥


[ And the ground begins to shift . . . there's a rumbling sound—an earthquake?

—no. Those are the sounds of footsteps . . . thousands of them, all at once.

Wherever idols are, they'll be able to see the streets and buildings are being invaded. Not by imps, not by demons, but rather, monochromatic people—sometimes just silhouettes, shadowy facsimiles of people rather than people themselves. Though they look lifeless, the energy they bring with them is overwhelming. Suddenly, the empty once-plastic city feels like it has the population to justify its size, and every building, communally upgraded or not, now accommodates the visitors, with non-upgraded buildings revamped inside to be bare-bones sleeping quarters for the . . . just how many people are here, anyway?

Perhaps more intimidating than the abrupt number of the Damned in Tokyo-F is the fact that they're all wearing. . . idol merchandise. Jackets with idol faces on them. Headbands. Lightsticks.

And. . . wherever you are, they're there. To get your signature. To shake your hand. Maybe to ask you to do something.

Idols will have to deal with this for . . . some time. The cryptic countdown has started again, but this time it's ticking reliably, though slowly, down.

Incidentally: far from the hotel, tall white walls have been erected around Honmachi Sakura Park. They're not magical walls, though—it seems determined idols can use any number of methods to climb over the walls to get to Heaven. It looks like it's largely there to keep fans away. . . ]

Who: Familiar faces?
Where: Tokyo-F
When: Day 423, evening

[ With the sun well on its decline, the good idols of Tokyo-F receive a video message feat. everyone's favourite goddess[citation needed]: ]

RESIDENTS OF TOKYO-F!!!! THE DIVINE DRAGON LUNA HAS ONCE AGAIN, LIKE, TOTES OWNED THE DEMONS OF THIS REALM IN AN EFFORT TO BRING YOU THE GIFT OF LOVE! I'd love to visit myself but I guess I'm like, even more kill on sight than I already was? And like, it's not like they can do anything to me but it's like soooooo annoying to deal with? They intercept every message I try to send too, even if it's to my wife! And that's not even because they think I'm dangerous or anything, they keep trying to tell me something about a "spam filter" or whatever, because I guess they can't handle sixty letters a day? As if.

So like, anyway! That's why I'm hijacking their stream! Now watch my blessing in action! Oh, and whatever garbo demons are watching this?

QQ MORE SCRUBS GGWP (GET GOOD WHY PLAY)



[ Idols also receive a text message: a cryptic countdown. . . countup? The six-digit number changes every second, randomizing like a lottery number, but the numbers never match up.

Something's going to happen. . . at some point. Sometime. Probably?

Then, at once, like some Kingdom Hearts Nobody Bullshit, a number of portals open up in various parts of the city. Instead of antagonistic fuckos though, the people who come out look more familiar and (probably) less antagonistic—they're all Hell Graduates or those who were transferred out of the program!

The city has already changed to accommodate the new guests: across the street from the hotel is a mirror version of the hotel. Here, Hell Graduates have access to their own unit-themed suites, along with whatever additional rooms they submitted for in advance. Transfers likewise have unit-themed suites, but theirs is only the basic room. ]
