minkhollowSo Quinn and I have been plotting, and we’d like to offer y’all a little opt-in bar-wide fun. Basically, you can give your character(s) a theme song (or several, if you want!) for a couple weeks.
The basics: At the beginning of the plot, Claudia will come in from the Warehouse, unknowingly with Leopold Stokowski’s baton from conducting Fantasia in tow. What it does is give everyone a theme song. It starts slowly, just a snatch of music here or there, but by the end of the plot just about anything you want could have a theme song – couples, siblings, training montages, the trilobite tank, you name it.
We’re not going to tell anyone what song(s) they should choose, or even enforce linking to them for people to listen. And as ever with bar-wide plots, this is strictly opt-in; your character can miss the madness entirely or just boggle at everyone else, if you’d like.
We see this as about a two-week thing, as Claudia won’t know what she did at first and then it’ll take her a while to fix it.
How do I get involved, you ask? Easy! Once the baton escapes from Claudia’s bag, it’s going to be rolling around the bar for a while (let’s say the first two or three days of the plot, which can of course be Millitimed to suit); all your character has to do is touch it. It works best if you pick it up and set it down somewhere else, but Milliways does have a way of amplifying things; you can just as easily say it rolled around and bumped your character’s foot.
We'd like to run this mid-to-late April, so as to keep away from April Fools' and Cubefall. It doesn't require sign-ups, since this is pretty freeform.
:D?
