OOC EVENT PLOTTING: SEPTEMBER 2023

This is the OOC plotting post for the September 2023 event! Here you can find brief summaries of the various event prompts which may help you engage in plotting with other players. To participate, utilize the code at the bottom of the page. This is not mandatory! Feel free to plot here or in private with other players, or simply wait to be part of the event.

NOTE: This is NOT the event log! The event log will go up on the 19th of this month.

WE WERE DREAMING, WAITING FOR NIGHT.

The new park is a permanent location that is open to residents 24/7 as there are no fences nor gates. It's larger than the one near City Hall and has more potential for exploring as well as different features from its cousin. For those that are familiar, it will evoke thoughts of New York's Central Park with its mixture of open areas contrasting with thick woods. Paved walkways, freshwater ponds, picnic areas, and a couple of playgrounds can all be found throughout the park. Along with these, residents may stumble upon other natural and man-made areas such as rocky outcrops, unmarked trails, bicycle paths, fountains, and other things typically found in large urban parks—minus the wildlife. It can be a romantic setting as easily as it can be a horrific one depending on the time of day as well as the company that you keep.

THEN THE HEAT BROKE, THE NIGHT WAS CLEAR.

Located in the southern half of the large park is a small fun fair that will open to the public the evening of September 19 with operating hours from 6:00 PM to 11:00 PM City time. Before opening, none of the rides or games will be operational; however, there will be fliers advertising its opening all around the city on billboards and telephone poles, and adventurous characters are able to hop the fence and explore if they so desire. However, they will not be able to turn on any of the rides or games, and will not be able to break into the rides or booths under any circumstances.

Upon opening, there will be a number of rides running themselves on a schedule that allows people time to get on, have some fun, and then get back off again. Among those named are a merry-go-round, mirror fun house, bumper cars, a tunnel of love, and knock-off Gravitron. Though there's something unsettling about the music they play, or maybe how shaky they feel, there's no apparent danger anywhere. Residents are encouraged to enjoy themselves with a group of friends, or maybe a date, and experience all that the fun fair has to offer! The fair will not be open forever, though; its gates will close permanently at 11:00 PM on September 30 and all traces will disappear that night to leave a large, open field behind in the park.

This is a good, ol' fashioned carnival designed to bring together groups of people for thrills and fun. Though there are no overt game mechanics at play, we encourage everyone to get creative and add their own flair to this month's event. If you have any questions about player plots you'd like to run, please revisit the Events & Interactions section of the F.A.Q. and drop us a comment on the mod contact for any additional questions.

IT SEEMED AN HONOR TO HAVE A MOUTH.

As quintessential as the rides, no fun fair is complete without rigged games or greasy food. Some of the notable mentions are a shooting gallery, dart throwing, and the ubiquitous ring toss. You may think that it's easier to cheat at a game when there are no attendants telling you made-up rules, but you'll still find it difficult to win yourself one of the many prizes hanging from the ceilings. There's a plethora of food to enjoy with all the classics: corn dogs, fries, funnel cake, pizza, shaved ice, and fried junk food.

Despite the potential for danger from the shooting gallery and balloon dart games, both are designed to be as harmless as possible—the bullets are rubber, and the darts are made of plastic. While they will still leave a bruise, there shouldn't be risk of blood loss. The shooting gallery guns are chained in place, unable to be stolen. Removing the darts from their stall will result in thiefs walking in a tight circle that always brings them back in hopes the darts will be restored to their rightful place.

Though the food and games are free, the prizes are not—anyone who attempts to steal prizes without winning the games first will find themselves misplacing their items before leaving the carnival. If residents become aware of this phenomenon and try extra hard to focus on not losing their stolen prize, it will nevertheless slip from their hands and be lost—though a keen eye might see it back in its rightful place at the game stall. If you have the right temperament, this could become a game in and of itself!

Additionally, if there are any fair games or foods that have not been explicitly mentioned above, players are welcome to assume they can be found. Nothing as extravagant as a theme park or amusement park will be present as all of the stalls are designed to be mobile—this is a traveling carnival, after all. Similarly, players are welcome to design their own brand of unsettling game prizes as long as none of them can be used as an actual weapon or to otherwise harm fellow fair-goers.

HOMINA HOMINA

it's over, honestly, midnight's a huge supporter of women's rights and wrongs and will just "yes and" anything fearne tells him 💀 the only ways to annoy him are 1. be a cat who bullies him or 2. be the guy midnight spent 4 days straight murdering in the mall a couple weeks ago (this one is impossible because midnight murdered him for real a year or so ago :|b)

i thought abt mitsuru too then we really could've gone full circle.

she can be a cat,
like a literal one.... one of them druid types, ykno.

but. oh my. i wanna know what that's about at some point.

LMAO i still think about that au now and then... amazing

i fully encourage cats to bully him! he'll just take it. he knows he's a cat victim, he just can't accept it. (if fearne actually wants to bully him, though, she needs to be really nice to him when he's tired? which is so annoying, it's easier to just pick on him lMAO. beating him up doesn't work, he genuinely likes it)

uuuuuh... tldr he's not a nice person but he's working on it 💀 there's a longer story but he'll go to hell and back to make sure most people never ever ever figure out anything real about him?? what you see is what you get vis a vis the midnight experience and that is super ok 👍

i think he should have an evoker. for fun. but like, there's a p3 gang here.. i coulda.

aw poor guy. why do cats hate u dude.
but see, she's capable of it?? she's nicer to people she hangs out with more and gets attached to so. someday. stop enjoying being beat up midnight there are much better things to enjoy i promise.

hmmmmmm intriguing and all the more reason to dig it out. we'll get there. more situations to be had.

me: it's just a fake gun, it wouldn't do anything
me again: okay, but midnight as a purse owner
me again again: shadow??? midnight?????.? would be terrifying actually????

i think cats actually like him a lot because he's such an easy target, he has 0 composure when it comes to dealing with cats and it is very funny... he doesn't even hate cats, he's just pathetic

fearne................... that is way too nice. fearne please. you're going to make him believe that nice things can happen to him and no one is prepared for that much unearned confidence.

snaps fingers. we should've done shadows then that would've been so fun

oh midnight. buddy. pal. you wet cat of a man.

look when i said i was inflicting terror upon the city with fearne i also mean the consequences of her interactions with others

mitsuru has a shadow in p4 arena, right? i should play p4 arena again...

if fearne is the type of girl who appreciates a certain level of pathetic uselessness in a man — a "failgirl" of a man, if you will — she'll do just fine. also, she is exactly like me and needs help, probably

could you imagine if the city did that to them. shadow versions. i think that entirely works for the setting.. but YEAH SHE DOES.. i miss my personas

she ..................... is a fan of most everyone usually, that i will say. unless they hurt her friends, then, thin ice. she'd probably think he's funny, honestly.

:''''( someday i will dust off my elizabeth journal and when i do it is all over for us bitches...

aw :') he's just a silly lil bean! please cause problems for him, i welcome her

unironically, elizabeth and fearne have the same vibes sooooooo im juuuuust saying

aye aye. watch out, midnight, she'll come for u.. (ominous)

oh no shot?? shoves midnight aside. fuck u dude fearne's MY gf now

(which is to say i now understand the vibe and i'm very excited CCCCC:)
