Wiwaxia runs a SBURB D&D(ish) game! (now playing!)

Guys

We are the Homestuck now

 

so it turns out rosemary blossoms are hella hard to draw, when you have no art skills

Spoiler: poetry in her body, she's got it in every way

 

Oh, cool! Is that a little capelet or shawl? And I like the ballet-y shoes and the boots.

 

It's a shawl! Or at least it's supposed to be. :P I'm glad you like!

One to go...I feel like Sera's is gonna be the hardest.

 

@Wiwaxia , are you feeling up to GMing tonight?

 

Yep!

We are on!

 

when is start?
(or did i miss the invite for #8?)

 

normally would be in an hour, but let's call it two, because i fell down the rabbit hole of the ocarina equation and neglected the rest of my prep.

thank you for reminding me to split off episode 8, though!

 

@Wiwaxia , just so you know, moss WAS in the chat but had to leave suddenly and will hopefully be back soon!

 

Crosspost from the tailend of Chapter 7:


Karrin Blue: it's SO CATCHY
also god youtube stop autoplaying terrible terrible music on your homepage
whimsy: autoplay is just
urgh
worse than steve carlsberg
Karrin Blue: heh.
whimsy: ooh, night vale au
Karrin Blue: ooh
whimsy: wherever and whenever something mind-warpy happens, ilma is right there at ground zero
Karrin Blue: i think myrtha is probably there
she accidentally Eldritched
the parking lot outside of the registrar's office.
she's very sorry
whimsy: myrtha is possibly related to the hooded figures
Karrin Blue: and will pay for damages once she stops throwing up saltwater and tentacle-eyes.
whimsy: ilma collects the tentacle-eyes, dries them, and makes a crown for myrtha out of them
myrtha also strikes me as someone interning at the radio station
Karrin Blue: yes probably
she takes polearms to work
whimsy: or the whole party are interns
nvcr intern club
Karrin Blue: she has different ones for every day and special ones for holidays
whimsy: nice
Karrin Blue: it's important to be prepared for all contingencies!
whimsy: definitely
ilma swears by her trusty fan and a ridiculous amount of bloodstone charms
Karrin Blue: and the benefit of the fan is
you can also use it to cool down
they DO live in the desert
whimsy: she's probably decked with them, all with different carvings and shapes, tiny ones sewn onto her dresses and between the flowers
::DD
Karrin Blue: cool
whimsy: lemi is definitely an intern
she's a bit like maureen and just won't die
first time was probably trying to take a picture of khoshekh
Karrin Blue: myrtha probably has a cat much like khoshekh
except a bit like roxy's mutant kitties
whimsy: leon regularly stumbles across hidden civilisations
nice
Karrin Blue: myrtha has occasionally run music for the station
mostly things are ok but
if you listen closely there's this... weird singing sound?
kind of echoey?
kind of underwatery?
whimsy: ilma digs it
Karrin Blue: kind of makes your radio start spilling saltwater if you keep it on there too long?
whimsy: ilma has a thingie under her radio that catches the seawater
she probably either wins salt from it or uses it to cook
Karrin Blue: heh
yeah it makes your food taste weird but still
whimsy: you gotta ask ilma if she used the salt in the food or storebought stuff
(theres no difference sometimes)
moss is in the library kids club
he uses books as weapons and he reads them, he fits right in
Karrin Blue: yep
whimsy: ilma just visits at times, and needs to be dragged out of the library before a librarian catches her
Karrin Blue: myrtha visits the future historical nightvale opera house
whimsy: nice
myrtha and ilma probably are friends with the faceless old woman who secretly lives in your home
theyre penpals with her
that sprobably also how they know each other
Karrin Blue: heh
ilmatar isn't buying skulls off of myrtha?
myrtha's skulls are probably still a thing
though they are pretty
oddly shaped...
whimsy: yeah, but they gotta get to know each other first
Karrin Blue: for desert life
also possibly not made of bone?
whimsy: on the other hand, evveryone probably goes to the same school
ilma is an avid supporter of hiram mcdaniels and thinks hes so cool and becomes a fairy dragon
Karrin Blue: ah yes.
she took some extracurriculars and AP courses
in being a fairy dragon
whimsy: well, you know how adolescents are. always changeing shape.
Karrin Blue: of course!
whimsy: ilma and her mom probably came from outside a few years back
ilmas mother is very glad this town and the school and everything are so supportive of her daughter's quirks, and she even has that internship, and friends, and it's generally all better
everyone was a little bit skeptical because, well, outsiders, interlopers, but ilmas mother probably wrote a heartfelt letter to the station which cecil read and was like 'yeah those two belong to us now' or sth
Karrin Blue: hee
and lemi and the rest of the group probably adopted ilma
whimsy: whee ::DD

 

@KarrinBlue I am unsure how a Princess Tutu au would work but a Princess Tutu au :D

 

OK, Lemi has hope and friendleadering so she'd be the Ahiru standin I guess? A little bat that transforms into a girl except she changes back when she squeaks?

 

Ahhh that is adorable.
Ok Myrtha is Rue, definitely, and I can see Moss as Fakir. I don't thiiink Ilma or Leon would be Mytho, though, so - wait, maybe Ilma is Edel? And Leon is Femio ummmm I don't know. Probably a music student.

Also I am unsure how skeptic Moss became friends with Ilma and Lemi but I love it

 

"I'll just rest my eyes for a minute," I said. "Just a quick rest so I have energy for the rest of the session," I said...

I wanna contribute to AUtalk, but the last anime I watched was Kill la Kill, which is not super conducive to AU making. :/

 

Actually I lied there is a piece of media I could make an AU from: the Zero Escape series

Spoilers for 999 ahead, if you haven't played it its on smartphones and also theres a good LP on lparchive.org

Spoiler: 999 au

Lemi is Junpei since she's the friendleader
Leon is June b/c Seer of Time and also I'm always a slut for Dersecest
Myrtha is Santa b/c Dersiblings and also she has that macabre aura
I wasn't sure how to split the Prospitians but I think Moss for Santa (bc asskicking) and Sera for Clover, with Ilmatar as Seven ... mostly because the mental image of Ilmatar singing the Well Organised Man song is hilarious to me
That leaves Ace, Lotus and the Ninth Man, none of which are easily filled rn. cL could be Lotus maybe?

I may end up drawing this

 

Um, so, my irl gaming group has had to suddenly switch from Fridays to Saturdays for reasons of two people suddenly got new jobs, so I will probably sit out of this week and try to figure something out for the future? On days I am not running I can prooobably do both, or I can switch off of doing this game and doing that one.

 

I am also perfectly capable of flipping to sunday if other people are.

 

Hmm. Sunday would probably work for me?

 

Sundayyyyyyy
might work
as well as saturday this week tbh, since our time on this island is about up and we leave for Idaho this weekend

...i've got enough data i think though, so as long as i have battery i should be able to do the thing

 

...erm. Unless we start it way, way earlier (like 5+ hours earlier), Sunday doesn't work for me for the next month or so. After that it should be fine. Curse you, 9-5 employment!
