018 ✤ open

[akito]

Characters: Wanijima Akito, Agito + OPEN
Date: April 15th +
Location: Everywhere
Situation: Introducing Agito to Keeliai
Warnings/Rating: Agito has a potty mouth

( this isn't how it's supposed to be. this isn't how they work. )

Akito is the one who eventually suggests taking Agito on a tour of the city.

I have some friends here, he explains. Agito isn't surprised. Akito was always so much better at people than him, and it's hard for anyone not to adore his better half.

Despite how badly Agito wants to keep Akito wrapped up safely in his arms until his mind settles, he also knows Akito needs this as much as he does - establishing some sort of normalcy when none can be found. Sharing in the things that kept him strong in Agito's absence. And he would be lying if he said he wasn't interested.

They go by foot, starting with the Fire Sector and working their way back around until they reach the Metal Sector again. Akito makes sure to introduce him to everyone he's remotely acquainted with, and it isn't long into their journey that it's Agito clinging tightly to Akito's hand rather than the other way around. He's never been good with people. And he doesn't like the way they stare at them both. It makes him want to grow big enough to hide Akito under him like a hen with her chicks. To keep him warm and safe and away from the prying eyes of people who might want to harm the most precious person in Agito's world.

[Midnight Hotel] Fourth-wall catch-all; 15-30 April

[gistful]

Characters: Anyone, everyone.
Date: 15-30th April, ‘2016’.
Location: The Midnight Hotel.
Situation: It’s the fourth-wall event and there’s a sudden influx of patrons! Feel free to use this post for anything that happens within the Midnight Hotel during the two weeks of the fourth-wall event, using the subject header to label specific rooms or for specific people. Regulars should feel free to continue using the non-fourth-wall Hotel post for pre-fourth-wall threads! See also the OOC note at the bottom.
Warnings/Rating: Mark your threads if content warnings become applicable, please!

The Midnight Hotel is a magical place—which is fortunate, because Keeliai has magically doubled the number of patrons the Hotel is capable of holding. Where else is capable of catering to an extra fifty Foreigners? the kedan say. Where else would want to?

Unfortunately, for all the Hotel’s many qualities and all the proprietor’s many skills, he can’t conjure up enough rooms for fifty extra people on no notice.

The solution: giant slumber party.

For the next two weeks the ground-floor common-area and the dining-area beside the garage have been repurposed as sleeping areas. Blankets, sheets, pillows, bean-bags, sleeping-bags—Mr Anton Shudder has gone, quite literally, to town in order to cater to the new arrivals. No one is going to be uncomfortable, except by the prospect of sleeping so close to strangers—but there isn’t much to be done about that. The very few rooms still available have been reserved for those who well and truly require the privacy.

Catering is a little more difficult. Suffice to say Mr Shudder is outsourcing for a good part of the fortnight.

On the plus side, Mr Shudder is gracious enough to let those without a soul-gem stay for free. As long as, of course, they Follow The Rules, which are told to every newcomer nearly as soon as they’re welcomed through the door.

Although Anton does attend the festival, he can be regularly found throughout the Hotel for anyone who has questions or concerns. He will, most of the time, be dogged by a bouncy fellow with an indefatigable grin, and it won’t be uncommon to hear variations of the following conversation:

“Hey, Anton—”

“No.”

“You didn’t even—”

“No.”

“Excuse me, I was just going to say—”

“Absolutely not.”

“Anton, hey Anton, hey hey Anton?”

“No.”

And so it goes.

[ooc: The Midnight Hotel’s status page is available here, with the rules at the top and ongoing status at the bottom. PLEASE PM ME IF YOUR CHARACTER WILL PERFORM A VIOLENT ACT. The Hotel is a neutral-zone and the proprietor is very strict as to acts of violence, and it will receive a response.

It will not be necessary for fourth-wall characters to officially check into the Hotel during the event.]
