Past Lives
Information

Every month or two, I'll post a scenario that people can use to play out "past memories" within their Estoria lives. This scenario style is kind of similar to the rp meme comm, bakerstreet style, where there will be a theme to the post to give some direction to your threads!

Potential New Players can try out their characters here as well! This is a great place to test drive as needed. However, for new characters, please post a toplevel instead of commenting to others UNLESS YOU HAVE PERMISSION FROM THE TOPLEVEL PLAYER that it's okay. The reason is unless stated otherwise, everything here will be considered canon. If you just want to test drive without any fear of making things canon, just notate "TEST DRIVE" in your header! Otherwise, treat it as canon even for new characters!

This is a post to play out backstory scenarios! Why have an AU if we CANNOT PLAY WITH THE AU!!!!!! I also enjoy the dichotomy of past and present threads so hopefully you can enjoy that as well!!

But if you just wanna mess around and not make it canon, notate that in the toplevel header with something like "NON-CANON" just so the other player is aware.

PS ALL THREADS WILL COUNT AS USABLE FOR AC IF CANON.

THE CIRRUS CIRCULATION

As a whole, most people find the Cirrus Circulation pretty boring. It's just generic news articles that you would expect in any magazine at your local market. Recipes, political commentary, advertisements, you know, the boring stuff. However, every week, this magazine is sold out.

Why?

Well, there's one particular section in the magazine that has become a viral sensation. There's a section where a member of Cirrus family asks questions to some random family member of the eight families, and at the end of the interview, there is a url at the end that buyers of the magazine can access. Buyers can then find a submission form where they can ask any question they'd like anonymously, and if the family member answers them, Cirrus publishes it on a website and then pays the interviewee some hefty cash for it. The more questions answered, the more money they get.

However, the questions have become relatively unhinged or weird or full of drama which has brought out great appeal amongst the general populace. When a famous siren's melodies' singer got asked a question about their secret love affair from their own husband? Whew!!! People talked about that drama for at least three days.

Prompts

1. You are being interviewed by a Cirrus member. Answer the questions truthfully or not truthfully, whichever:

Tell us a little bit about yourself.

How do you feel about your Family?

What's one thing you wish you could improve upon?

What's your favorite motto?

What advice would you give to the readers out there?

2. Reply to other people's interviews and ask them questions "anonymously". Don't be afraid to ask them the worst questions, but be careful, they might not answer if they're too offensive. But you never know, they might!

And you can keep responding to one another, treat it like a funny forum or old school messageboard. Maybe even like those 90s websites where people would argue in guestbooks.

FEATHER FAIRE

A large troupe from Unholy Disorder loves to host these hidden festivals that are only spread by sharing a "feather" to someone you trust. They do not happen frequently and there is no rhyme or reason as to when they happen. The only thing that never chances is the invite is through a singular feather.

The feather often has the details of when this hidden carnival is being held. There's no price, no fee, if you have seen the feather, you've been invited, and it's expected that you'll pass the feather to someone else. Now obviously, there are those who will spread the information online which feels like it defeats the purpose of having a secret festival, but the spirit of the festival remains:

"I want to make fun memories with you with this once in a lifetime event."

Prompts

1. You received the feather to the festival. You can now choose one person to give it to. Who do you choose?

2. The festival is near the Seastar Ocean this time around, taking place as the sunsets. The general theming seems to be, "Even if we forget, it still exists." When you enter, you're given a conch that sparkles only as the darkness begins to take over the beach. They say you and another should take your regrets and speak them into the conch, and once you're done, you can send it to the ocean. This is said to give you good luck as you're letting go of the regrets that held you down.

3. Sandcastle contest!! The ones who make the most impressive sandcastle or sandsculpture will win a fabulous trip for two!!

4. The odd thing about Seastar Ocean is that some say that if you swim in the water, and someone happens to be nearby, you can feel their emotions channeling through you. It's as if the emotions carried by the moment are being spread by the ocean to whoemver is nearby...

5. Choose your own prompt! This can be anything you like. It can be related to beaches and this festival or even just something unrelated (going to the cafe to eat a meal, doing a convention, going to see movies together, etc). Go wild!

WINTER SCAVENGERS WEEK

Every year, around day 90 of the Stars Cycle, there is an unofficial festival where you must "scavenge" a gift for the people you care about. This means you cannot buy the gift, but you must actually "find" a gift. Now it's unofficial because it can obviously lead to stealing a gift but the idea is that you can put feelings into whatever you find, and that's all you need for a gift. It seems to have been started by members of the Unholy Disorder family who were interested in the "true meaning of gift giving".

There is another part of the festival as well. Some people will choose to leave gifts all over the city of Port Manteau for anyone to find. Sometimes they're completely anonymous, but sometimes the gift will have a link to a private chat that only the gift giver and gift receiver can have access to. Feel free to thank your gift giver in these private chat rooms! Maybe even take the chance to meet up?

And listen, it's a snowy winter post. Feel free to just enjoy snow-like prompts!! Go wild!!

Prompts

1. You got your gift prepared to hand to the person you care for! Platonically, romantically, either way it doesn't matter. You just hope you like it.

2. You found a gift in the city and decided to check out the chatroom to talk to the gift giver. Who is on the other line...?

3. You are going to steal your gift. Like a heathen. Who are you stealing it from though...?

4. Choose your own prompt! This can be anything you like. It can be related to winter weather (snowed in a cabin! sharing blankets to keep warm! ice skating!) or even just something unrelated (going to the cafe to eat a meal, doing a convention, going to see movies together, etc). Go wild!
