It's Plot Time Again, Y'all

Ladies, Gentlemen, Anthropomorphic Personifications of Fluid or Indeterminate Gender, and Anyone Not Falling Into One of the Three Previous Categories, a moment of your time, please.

It is with great pleasure, and something that can only be described as a rather bubbly glee, that I bring you the following bar-wide (100% optional) plot.

On (or around) June 21, I will be bringing the Snuggle fabric softener bear into the bar. If you check out his current official website*, you will learn that he is, at present, on a mission for upliftment. And what better place to begin that than at the end of the universe?

Details behind the cut, because this is getting long.



Here's how it works. If a pup hugs, or is hugged by, Snuggle, he or she is "uplifted." For the duration of the plot, affected characters are snuggly and soft** and completely static-cling free. They may also smell faintly of the fabric softener scent of your choice.

While under the influence of this upliftment, characters are happy, worry-free, very lighthearted . . . in short, sort of like exceedingly cheerful drunks. They're not mindless; just relentlessly, undeterrably upbeat. They still know they have problems, they're just not bothered by them.

This upliftment can manifest however you think your ridiculously happy pup would act -- games, dancing, laughter, hugging, groups sitting in a circle in the floor singing Kumbaya, etc.

Obviously, no pup will be hugged without the mun's permission. If, however, you have a character you want involved who is simply not the sort to go around hugging animate teddy bears, both Snuggle and I are happy to ambush hug people; just let me know. If you and I are on wildly different playing schedules (I'm US Eastern Daylight Time, and usually around in the evening), I'm happy to handwave hugs with reckless abandon.



The plot will end the following weekend, and everyone will, in a soft and snuggly way, go back to normal.

If you have questions, comments, thoughts, concerns, suggestions, or ideas for me, please don't hesitate to leave a comment here, ping me (elsinorequeen on AIM) or e-mail me (elsinore queen (at) yahoo (dot) com).

And now, with thanks to the mods for letting me do this rather insane thing, I return you to your regularly scheduled backroom.

*Be warned -- the website is kinda terrifying. Not nearly as terrifying as this, but still pretty terrifying.

**ETA, for clarification: Characters' personalities become soft and snuggly. There's no physical change.

Teja will wonder whether it is just his own black mood, or if truly almost everybody in the bar has inhaled hemp smoke...

Yrael shall hide behind Teja boots until it all blows over.

Or accidentally get hugged when he seeks to kill the spirit possessing the toy.

Teja will be depressed, but the company of a cat will be very welcome! Yrael is very welcome to hide with Teja while everybody in the bar is stoned out of their senses.-

A cat is sufficiently goth enough company for the Goth? :D

For any Goth, even at his gothiest. He has cats that share the forge now, but nothing replaces his favourite not!cat!

Yrael is happy to hear that!

And he'd love to meet Teja's new bundles of joy friends.

I'll need an early bedtime today because of meetings at my slave labour work tomorrow, but I'll give him an EP by the forge, with cats, tomorrow -- how about that?

Wednesdays are our slowest days. I should have the opportunity to tag while at work tomorrow. *snugz*
