EVENT PLOTTING: TERRA FELIS

[futurologists]

A CAT-ASTROPHE Without warning, characters have been removed from Woodhurst via rift -- but instead of returning to the familiar surroundings of Oska, they'll find themselves somewhere entirely new. This is Terra Felis, which characters who have perused the magitek files will recognize as the homeworld of fellow recruits Cherenkov and Crowley. Terra Felis is a longtime ally of ALASTAIR, and serves as one of many planets that operates as a sanctuary in case Oska needs to shut its rift gates down for whatever reason. The locals don't have any idea why the gates have been shut down, but it's a rare enough occurrence that they're a little worried. Still, they are more than happy to host their allies until communication with Oska resumes. NEWBIES IMPORTANT: Incoming characters have not been to Oska this time, instead rifting directly from their home dimensions to Terra Felis. As such, they're at a slight disadvantage -- they won't have any idea what's going on! This is where veteran recruits come in . . . NETWORK: As the cats of Terra Felis are the originators of the magitek that ALASTAIR uses, newbies will be able to choose a jewelcomm if they wish, so you'll have network access right away. NOTES Please use this post to plot in the comments below! There will be only one log in Terra Felis, which will last for approximately three weeks both IC and OOC, but expect an NPC announcement near the end of their stay . . . BUDDY SIGN-UPS. If you would like your veteran character to guide a newbie, please sign up below! Please note that since Oska is incommunicado, this is not an IC sign-up, nor is it an IC assignment; ICly, characters will simply stumble upon each other by happenstance. In other words, this is purely OOC matchmaking, so make sure your character is the type to answer questions and make sure you have the OOC availability! Matches will be announced 10 April 23:59 UTC. QUESTIONS? Please direct any questions about Terra Felis to this comment. All questions regarding the game in general should be directed to the FAQ.

Urahara's feelings on cats can be summed up by these two videos. To say he will be an embarrassment to your team is a gross understatement. And the only thing better than cats are SCIENCE CATS, so he'll be picking their brains and scritching their ears as he's allowed to. On one hand, it's nice to see him back to being in good spirits again.

On the other, Urahara... why are you like this...

Meanwhile, Peridot is just gonna be weirded out and yet somehow strangely comfortable around these sentient cats... Possibly because she behaves very much like a sentient cat. However, she is in possession of a dog, even if it's a dog of a vegetable variety who will deeply want to play with the kitties. Shenanigans.

[webdesigned]

let urahara live and pet all the cats he wants it is not a crime!!!

i would love to throw one of mine at you, either team science teaming up to pick the brains of science cats or brother and pumpkindog chasing them... if you are game!!

[ex_mettacrusher33]

So Mettaton had every intention of feeling sorry for himself and moping when they got back to Oska, but uh....................

...cats.

cats everywhere..................................

mettaton is very much used to demeaning sapient cats by forcing them into dumb costumes and laughing at them like any good celebrity. please stop him before he gets taken apart by science cats.

(he will probably have cats on him like all the goddamn time, don't fucking judge him they are cuter than you)

[scrap_metal]

so, uh

robot superstar, meets grumpy cyborg + lots of cats, what can go wrong?

I strongly suspect the answer is "pretty much everything", but isn't that the point?

[fateality]

Hanzo will be putting forth all of his focus into cooking and supplying everyone with food because he doesn't know how else to occupy himself. He's still feeling kind of guilty about getting infected.

Meanwhile, Twisted Fate is having a soak by the spa and throwing a tiny celebration for himself for a belated birthday party not far from the spa. He'll be relaxing as much as he can until the Next Big Thing happens.

[cachemoney]

i would like to do something with hanzo!! make fiona a food and try not to spit in it, let's see what happens

[respired]

koltira fuckin loves cattes; he cries (internally, silently) every day about giving up his lynx belore to the voltrons. presumably these enlightened scholar cats won't be as put off by his undeath so he will be glad to be among them

let's sit together in the cat saunas and be warms

(and then menace the wildlife, like a true native, bc he needs to kill SOMETHING)

mccree is more of a dog person i think & will be weirded out/put off by these cats and their strangely unsurprising but still irritating devotion to latin scholarship

[cachemoney]

what if fiona and koltira ran into each other in the sauna

[skelepun]

Sans is crazy used to sapient cats. If anything, he's more used to them then all the humans around -- and the science? WHAT A HAPPY SKELETON HE'LL BE. And I'm not even touching all the pun potential.

He's mostly going to be doing what he's been doing. Lying to everybody about being the Sans from before, attempting to duck people who may be onto him (not that I, Em, the player want that, COME AT ME), enjoying the much more relaxing setting.

And harassing newbies of course, THO NOT AS A BUDDY, BECAUSE HE WOULD BE THE OPPOSITE OF HELPFUL. you're welcome

[webdesigned]

def wanna throw the spider at sans for serious talks

nods sagely.

[araigneedusoir]

Widowmaker... will be enjoying some serious R&R since she's kind of wiped out from Woodhurst (mainly probably sleeping forever, only not really).

Of course that won't stop her from exploring places and won't turn down company during said explorations. And cats, she adores cats. She'll spend quite a bit of time hanging out with the cats, but I mean who wouldn't?

[cachemoney]

fiona will be super into pampering herself, so she is gonna hang out at the spa. as soon as she's done feeling like she's gonna puke from the cure injection. any day now.

she will also be at the parks and maybe the zoo?? always amazed by nature that isn't a desert wasteland and animals that aren't made of murder and acid.

i will be putting up a toplevel, so let me know if you want anything at these places or anywhere else!

[dbag]

Rhys is gonna be riding out the cure side-effects on his giant cat bed until he's good enough to roam the streets, after which he will probably just be living a life of kitty luxury. Basically just being the most metrosexual guy ever.

Anyway, I'm wide open! But mostly I will be focusing on my current threads because I've been struggling to keep up, so I won't be doing any top-levels right now. Let me know if you want to do something, though, I'm still totally open to threads! c:

[cachemoney]

im gonna make a toplevel and i expect to be tagged

[grunehexe]

Sieglinde is in desperate need of R&R, so she's going to be mostly on the downlow in Terra Felis, sleeping ridiculously long hours in her room, researching her own projects, or going to the spa to have something done about her ridiculously long hair. After a few days she'll begin investigating the Royal Magitekkery and the Museum Campus. She won't actively be seeking company but she's too tired to refuse it.

[keystaff]

Ooooh kitties. I kind of headcanon after...you know. Suppi back home and Kero's True Form being a lion with wings and all that she does have a fondness for cats, even if she can't take her actual lion that is definitely no longer a cub with her to all the missions (thanks again, Gilgamesh).

So she'll probably be relaxing petting the kitties as they allow in lieu of caring for Keroberos back at Oska, sleeping, probably enjoying the spa, museum, aquarium and zoo. I still need to get her on the log itself, either tonight or tomorrow after work around likely grocery shopping, but yes.

[assent]

Sonia is also in the need of some R&R, so there will definitely be stops to the spa probably for multiple days please just let her live. On top of that though, she will be reading in the library as latin is no problem for her... if anyone wants anything translating feel free to ask her!

She will also be at the aquarium and the zoo...

I will try and get top levels up for all 4 but if anyone wants to do anything in particular let me know!

Who wants to ask the cooks at the hotel to make a picnic in the park for them uwu let's go roll around in a field of flowers and make daisy crowns etc etc (they can use food to entice kitties for pets okok)

ALSO (sorry i keep forgetting things) San-D and Cham-P will have to spend time on her head most of cat island so the cats don't get confused and try to eat them [lonely] someone help her keep kitties off the hammies

[grunehexe]

latin ladies, go go

I want something that isn't angst but that seems like too much to ask for right now on my end somehow but that still leaves me wanting in on this picnic

[figureitout]

this is literal heaven for nami who will take advantage of all the pampering opportunities and probably won't leave the spas for a week... though she'll also hang out at the royal university and the museums, primarily trying to find any new information meteorology/cartography. she'll also be rather sad about the lack of alcohol.

also as the remaining member of the straw hat pirates, she feels like it's her responsibility to keep the we-made-it parties going — it wasn't really all that appropriate to do in woodhurst but she's probably putting together some kind of celebration here, because luffy would want her to uvu

and then stiles is 1000% in desperate need of some rest but true to form he's.... probably not going to rest and instead spends his time pestering the cats in the royal magitekkery and the university about all things magic. if someone wants to translate latin to him that'd be great. or idk knock him out and force him to rest that sounds like a great plan too... or join him for exploring the countryside because he's also going to do that, why wouldn't you right, who cares about the bears or wolves.

[assent]

raises hand for translation... then uses it to slap him across the head to get him to sleep :T

and pampering times uwu sadly the parties are alcohol free :< cats why are you allergic

olivia & lance

[winces]

olivia will be a little worried about alastair and oska, but seeing as how there's really nothing she can do about it, will probably be keeping all that worry to herself. this will likely translate into a lot of stress baking. she is still feeling some of the after-effects of the vaccine, and thus will be a little more irritable than usual. apart from that, her pet lion saffron will be attempting to play with the cats (to varying degreees of success).as always, olivia's healing and empathy powers are available for those who might like them!

as for lance, you bet your bottom dollar that he's going to be taking full advantage of this time for some r&r. lance is the KING OF 'TREAT YO' SELF' so he'll be all over the spa and pampering stuff. catch him doing ANYTHING and EVERYTHING but don't talk to him about mission stuff because LALALA HE CAN'T HEAR YOU now is the time for peace okay okay. he will likely engage in some late night shenanigans (mostly "sneaking out" to hang out in various ways bc everything's 10x more fun when it's at night and "forbidden") and would love go invite others along for some good bonding moments/team building. this may also be helped along by the fact he's still suffering from insomnia thanks to the cure side effects, so if anyone would like to notice he's mostly dead on his feet, that'd be great. he has a sapient space mouse named bud who will be mildly wary of all the cats trying to figure out if he's food or not. ALSO!! lance loves finding out about different culures so he's definitely gonna fully immerse himself in terra felis, and likely talk some poor kitty's ear off just to find out all the things.

[ofobedience]

Empathy powers in the flower meadow for a super chill Gio? Alternatively, empathy powers to help him keep his cool around cats who are less than thrilled to have a dog-person around the place?

Oh, and we should do something with Lance and Gio too!! Gio will be sneaking about at night because that's what he does >.>

Loki

[selfimage]

SO LOKI'S RECOVERING from Woodhurts more mentally/emotionally from personal problems than from pseudo-zombie-sickness ones. He'll be around and poking his face almost everywhere to see if he can get into trouble. He'll most likely also have Odinson on his back at some point. For all of those who know him and he didn't tell that his brother is here, well, his brother is here. It's a long, terrible story and he's still butthurt about the whole thing.

It's time to avoid some responsibilities and play catch-up. He'll be around getting himself groomed, sitting in the tub, and probably getting a manipedi. He may also drop by the Royal Magitekkery to observe and generally eavesdrop on everything. He may also want to touch base with the other teams, to cross reference what they may know about what's happening in Oska.

Of course there's Cat Thor.

Somewhere in there he may try to convince Ahad to run around as a cat, because you know, shapeshifters. You may also catch a fox among cats!! Also some trickery, funtimes and illusions. Part of R&R is a little practical joking thankyouverymuch.

I'm got some ideas, come to me!! Opens arms!

[grunehexe]

I tried to resist, but I can't.

Cat Thor is amazing???

[ofobedience]

Giovanni has no strong feelings one way or another about cats...but seeing as he has a Kerberos Spine implanted into him which contains a dog-entity-thing (this manga is weird, don't ask questions) and kind of identifies as a dog (albeit not of the literal variety) the cats are going to be none to fond of him-- suspicion and sometimes outright hostility is a go! If anyone wants to help defuse prickly situations involving him and cats then that'd be fun.

Other than that, and somewhat because of it, he'll be keeping out of the way for the most part, resting up after the last mission and sticking to quiet out of the way spots. Some relatively chill threads would be cool after all the angst of the last mission!

He'll probably prowl around at night, BUT on top of that (which is something he usually does) he can also be found chilling in the meadow (flowers!) and in the hot springs (fewer cats in the water!).

[secondnature]

As a note, I am on hiatus for the month because of a big video game coming out and vacation stuff coming up, but I'd be a fool to pass up the greatest chill game event of all time.

That said!

Keith will be his usual Keith-like self, and will be enamored by all the cats but honestly not good at showing it. If any of the cats are down for sitting on a brooding dude while he's sulkily relaxing in weird places (because that's what he does), he will be doing that (but that's only if that's a thing at all). He's still not great at the "check on friends" sort of deal, but I want to push him toward that. Other than that, he'll be very interested in the rift machines and how they work and likely frustrated that all the books are written in gibberish.

Oh, and true to form (?), he will likely be asking the cats if they've ever heard of Voltron. Because, well. Yes.

[competing]

let's regale the kitties with tales of space robot cats

[tolight]

a heads up that april is going to be a slowatus month for me because it's finals season + i'm relocating for an internship at the end of april! good news is once may hits i'm done with school for a while so maybe i'll stop being a literal snail...

anyway to reflect that, lucina isn't going to be up to very much. just some R&R ( though she's not really frivolous enough for a spa, someone please drag her ), some sightseeing, talking to the locals ( her feelings towards cats are very neutral ), etc. she's suffering from some irritability thanks to the vaccine but she's very good at Repressing that sort of thing, so!! please consider this as a not doing very much but totally down for shenanigans kinda thing.

also!! if your character has some cr with her, please assume that lucina inboxed your character to make sure they're alright after woodhurst!! i'm very much down to thread this out if you'd like ( just lemme know!! ), but i should probably try to keep my inbox from exploding by messaging literally everyone she knows smh.

[cachemoney]

jay!!!! i would like to follow up on lucina and fiona's cr since we haven't tagged since PR x-( would you be available for a thread? fiona will def drag her to a spa if she's hesitant about it.

[prodigism]

Arima is just gonna...take a nice long nap among the cats. He's a tired old man okay? No I kid. He'll just be around doing whatever he does...training and resting. Possibly not enjoying the fact that his one hobby, reading, is unattainable since all the books are in gibberish. Why u do this.

Arima is just gonna chill so if anyone wants stoic, chill, cat filled threads he is here for you.

[scrap_metal]

Genos didn't saw Oska for that long, as he arrived in the final stages of Woohurst madness, so he won't really realize what's so strange. I mean, the whole multi-dimensional rift is weird enough, why is not going where planned still weird /grumps/

He'll still investigate around, and check the library... and the hot springs, because of how familiar these might look.

Also, can be a portable cat-heater. Or a cat-napper spot. He might even ramp the heat generated by his body a bit, if asked nicely.

Because cats.

[heroforhobby]

Saitama is returning after being gone during the last mission!!

The main thing people may see of Saitama here is him trying to approach cats, making motions and talking like you would trying to get a wandering cat back home to come to you for a pet, but all cats with no occupational obligation to help a human (like a hotel worker etc) will get spooked out and avoid him. Not only is his method of approach weird for a sapient creature, but he also just gives off an aura of "do not approach this human" that animals, even sapient ones, just can't explain.

This makes him very sad.

He just wants to pet a cat.

Otherwise, there isn't much on this world to interest him! He'll just be wandering around, mostly exploring the interesting parks, and he may try a mud bath for lack of anything better to do.

If anyone he knew before he left wants to chat or anyone new wants to approach the weird baldy I'm open to anything and everything!!

Prompto!

[argenteums]

Prompto is newly arrived!! I guess he could just find his best friend Noctis, but why would we make that easy? Confused and armed with a camera, he'll probably know his friend is around if he's able to summon a weapon from Noctis' arsenal, so.

People will definitely find Prompto taking pictures of the kitties because CUTE KITTIES. But he's going to be looking for Noctis first, however! That also means running into folks like a big ball of sunshine and trying to pretend he isn't absolutely weirded out. Also please let him take pictures of your characters with KITTIES.

I can work him wherever since he has no clue where to go, so, plotting get??

[scrap_metal]

Cats + cyborg cat heater = photoshoot?

Genos will grumpily oppose to photos, but he's hands are tied, or rather meowied.

[feytality]

Maya is going to hit up the spa, hug literally every cat, probably bother the other teams, and otherwise just vegging and messing around. If anyone wants to get into trouble or just get some antics under their belt, come to me

if any of her friendly cr needs a little friendly push to sleep or relax or unwind, come to her

[conqueress]

Daenerys is presently recovering from the Bristol Virus cure, which means she gets fatigued easily and gets occasional spells of nausea and vertigo. She's also picked up a temporary aversion to meat after the constant thoughts of cannibalism, and will be sticking to fish and vegetables for the duration of their time here.

When she isn't out like a light in her kitty bed, she'll be making small strides toward being a fully functioning human again! This probably includes dropping by the royal court to ask questions, talking to other teams, and significantly, pampering herself. She's recovering from the plague and she's been without handmaids for over a year now; what's a queen to do? Try spa treatments and kitty manicures, apparently. She'll also be taking some time to familiarize herself with the museums (aquarium!! stars and planets!! these sections will fascinate her), because productive leisure time is not something she's accustomed to having. Cat pats will likely happen because she misses having small clawed things in her lap or on her shoulders, apparently.

Drogon will be remaining in bird form so the entire world doesn't go extinct in a week. He'll likely stick close to Dany most of the time; mom's not quite all the way back on her feet yet, and he's feeling protective.

[selfimage]

WHEN WE WRAP UP SOME OTHER STUFF i'd like to do a stars & planets thread because stars & planetss!!!
