Here are some plot ideas I've been mulling over, though...
1. I was considering getting Tara a job. Specifically, I was going to make her a pool cleaner so she'd drown and acquire severe hydrophobia that she'd try to work past with magic, thus worsening her burgeoning magic addiction, but I wasn't sure who else was a pool cleaner or if anyone else would like to interact with her on another job. Was also considering librarian or cook.
2. The return of Dark Tara. Somehow. Hardcore tear-up-the-world kind of Dark Tara. I know a lot of tower residents could still give her a fight, but the Scoobies got off easy.
3. Maybe some volunteers to get their powers drained? It's an ability Tara has that, if pressed - and I plan to have her pressed - she'd make use of, after some hesitation. Ideally, word of this would eventually get back to Willow, thus leading to an epic smackdown.
4. ...generally getting Tara into trouble, I guess. With enough power, she might acquire a hero complex and try looking out for people to rescue from monsters. So, basically, she's liable to wander into environmental hazards and exhaust herself getting out, which means that there'll be times when she needs a bit of rescuing herself.
5. Manipulative types, she's pretty ripe for manipulating, at this stage of the game.
6. Being a bookworm-y type, I was thinking Tara might be on the lookout for some way to catalogue the monsters.
7. I also stuck a couple of her college textbooks in her trunk, so she might eventually come up with the idea of just getting people together to teach some classes.
...any of that sound interesting? They're all just half baked plot ideas, at the moment, so I hold no illusions about all of them being possible.
4. Minami runs the Night Watch (which is still being set up) so we could probably set something like that up at some point, if Tara doesn't decide to join the Night Watch herself.
I am so so up for any and all smackdown times. If you ever want Willow to interfere with Tara's business and troublemaking, you know where I am, haha. Willow is actually very stable right now, morals wise, and isn't likely to get sucked back into addiction herself-- so it'd be an interesting reversal to have her be the voice of reason for Tara.
It's probably a good thing they aren't dating here... I can only imagine that would be hugely unhealthy for the both of them re: magic addiction. lol.
As for cataloging monsters! Yes, as Random said, Willow's sort of taken this up, but she hasn't gotten too far into it. I think it'd be great if she and Tara worked on it together. :) Very much like home.
For power-drain - would just be like draining Lina's batteries, or give Tara the spell knowledge as well? 'Cause while the only Really Big Gun™ Lina's packing due to canon point and mod say-so is the Dragon Slave, her regular repertoire is nothing to sneeze at, and could cause a lot of trouble for people in the wrong hands.
on 7, if Tara wants a fellow teacher, she's got living history here 'u' England would love to help her teach some history, literature, or grammar classes after he recovers from the labyrinth event aftermath!
also he's basically Willow's uncle at this point so Tara could hear about him from her possibly or they can babble about having a friend in common idk idk
1) I don't know if this is possible but I would like it if I can have William demand to get a hold of those in charge of the tower and receive an audience to only go mad for like a week or two and not remember what he had learned.
2) another floor suggestion if expanded- a old style movie theater/ stage.
The General here needs a job. His skillset (OBVIOUSLY) is killing shit no one else can and leading men, ect, ect. And wherever Seph goes, a dark haired puppy is sure to tag along, followed maybe by a blond chocobo, so anything for either him or the group would be absolutely ace.
I did take a look at the Security Officer thingy, but exploding where one stands sort of puts a damper on that, because well, shit happens. Sooo, anything else along the military/enforcer line would be welcomed, if there's one set up already or needed to be organized, he can do that too. :)
Minami is putting together a Night Watch. She could approach Sephiroth about joining sometime since she's going to go to all the leaderly types asking for help/advice for it.
I'm still getting stuff together for it OOCly, though, but the gist is everyone gets divided into groups and assigned floors to patrol for X amount of hours every evening to ward off monsters, get their fight on, train, etc., while having safety in numbers. Would that work?
Minami: 1). I'd mostly like for her to get some cross canon CR right now since she mostly knows Persona characters.
2). Night Watch. She is going to be focusing on organizing it, possibly approaching the more leaderly types for help in that regard.
3). Ken. She needs to resolve things with Ken.
Arturia: 1). Get her a Master at some point. Preferably someone outside of her canon, I have no idea how to contrive it. She's running on limited magical reserves and refuses to consume souls to replenish it, so she could wind up dying with a too strong EXCALIBAAAAA during a fight and running out. I'm handwaving her not disappearing entirely as Tower Magic at the moment, but if she wants to be at full power with no fuss, she'll need someone to act as it. We'll see how CR rolls out for that.
2). I want her to get into a big epic fight on water, since she can walk on it. Just because the visual is so cool in my head.
3). Once she finds out about the horrific things the Tower does to people she might make a huge post demanding answers. I'll need to get in touch with the mods about it, but I'd love some kind of consequences for it.
Hojo likes science, so certainly, he wants to research all the things. And experiment on them, when possible. Or on people. Also, he can make you better, stronger, and faster! Although there may be drawbacks... If anyone wants to be experimented on and enhanced.
He's very interested in learning more about all the different kinds of people in the tower, and possibly finding new power sources and/or ways to mess with things. If anyone has intriguing equipment, or appears to be worth knowing more about, Hojo will be curious.
He'd be happy to have some science colleagues, preferably those without morals, but he's an equal opportunity thief of research associate. He's willing to play nice, if only temporarily, to attain some allies.
And of course, he always should have people to foil his evil plans, whenever they may arise!
William here is quite a blabbermouth about his job as a grim reaper so if hojo just asks him a question Mr. No filter mind to mouth would answer it completely.
Okay, Wingus (Lina/Shoutarou/Ridley-mun) here, with a guy I'm looking to bring in with this coming weekend's round of apps.
Possession is a thing he can do - literally dive into someone's body and take control of them. (This is something that won't be done without player permission, of course.) I'd like him to do some now and then - mostly to jump in people who have completely opposite personalities of him for the absurdity of them acting like compulsive and brash idiots for a short time, and hit things with a sword potentially.
The gist of what happens is their hair stands up crazily, it gets a red streak, his voice overrides theirs, and they get red eyes. Here's an example. He'd be doing this as some roundabout way of showing someone that they can defend themselves or something - taking over in a bad situation. (And in an essence, stealing the spotlight, because Momo does love to be the center of attention and get one over on the bad guys.)
1. Willow's working on making an information database of all the monsters present in the tower, with corresponding descriptions, locations spotted, and known weaknesses. I'm probably going to be lazy and slow on this because, well, it's tedious to write up OOCly, LOL. But it's definitely something she's motivated about ICly.
2. She's getting involved in the Spidermom plot, through asking the tower admins to remove it, and probably also lecturing Vriska about not hurting people in the most self-righteous way possible. Um. We'll see how that goes.
3. UHHH A WHILE AGO WHEN SHE WAS POWERLESS she talked to Signless about trying to do something against the Condesce, GHB, and Dualscar? Specifically they discussed her turning them into lowbloods for a while to try to teach them ~*~how the other side lives~*~. I fully expect this to go terribly if you guys want to go through with it, or we could do something else entirely, or Willow could not do anything at all. WHATEVER YOU'RE ALL UP FOR is cool with me.
She has a lot going on right now with still recovering from fighting Dualscar, getting used to having her magic again, and Tara showing up, though. So she's not going to move on this right away anyway. If none of you see this, I'll plurk you all about it in a couple weeks, ahaha...
4. I'M UP FOR ANYTHING ELSE just drag me into plots if you want me, guys.
DEMI-FIEND Who would like to try making a Contact with a pretty powerful half demon? Keep in mind he's not a very trusting fellow right now, so you'll need to win him over. But I would love it if Hitoshura ended up protecting someone / getting won over to fight for someone over the course of some months.
NAOYA I was thinking about him giving some fighting lessons, or at least showing people how to shoot guns and use swords. It would probably be terrible, but yes.
OTHER PLOTS IN GENERAL I need to get my notes on this so this is a TO BE CONTINUED.
YOU JUST REMINDED ME TO GO TAG HITOSHURA idk how they'd get along, if it would lead far enough for something like a Contract, annnnd Willow's pretty wary of deals with demons anyway. BUT I love Nocturne so I want to at least try for CR. hahaha.
B/a I already had a list of things I want to do to Ronald that don't involve death and dismemberment which aren't exactly majorly huge plots. Just tiny things I'm interested in happening.
Some of which involve Ronald getting a tongue piercing and possibly acquiring a text quirk... but those can wait.
Who I really wanna get up and moving is Claude! Anyone need a spider demon getting involved in that spidermom plot? Or anywhere?
There's two things that Master Xehanort has kind of going on the back burner - they're not something that's going to happen immediately, as he rarely works in the short term, but they're the primary ones that I'm ready to discuss!
1. APPRENTICES! People he talks to, those who he has decent CR of the positive variety, if he feels you have potential you go down on the list of those he would potentially consider seeing if you are worthy of being taught how to wave around a giant key.
ALSO, for things like magic or fighting, he's pretty much open for any kind of training. He likes to learn new styles of magic or broaden his fighting repertoire, so there's always an opening for that.
2. SUITS! He is looking for the best of the best to be a potential new suit! This is a very prestigious position, and if/when this particular plot happens all hell is pretty much guaranteed to break loose so don't expect it for a while. Those who he finds suitable will go down on a very special list. You probably don't want to be on this one. Or maybe you do.
As a heads up, there is something else I'm planning but I have to do a bit of checking around for it. If I can pull it off, it should be a doozy... well, I'm hoping :D
As of now, I really don't have much plans for Hei and could use some direction. At best, he'll be trying to observe people, be it from the shadows or casual conversations, as he doesn't believe his world has ended. It may take a lot to convince him, but even after that, he may contribute more with cooking, which is GODLY. However, he also does eat a lot, almost like Goku from DBZ.
He's also a skilled fighter, and while he did train Suou, he'll only train others he deems that deserve such a thing. His methods are a bit odd, while others seem sound, and results can be earned; Suou picked up quickly and kicked ass as just a little girl. I'd really like for him to have another little apprentice, someone to bug him and eventually prove to Hei that they deserve training to face off against a threat to their lives.
SAYAKA MIKI At this point, Sayaka's attempting to learn some sort of emotional control, after learning the hard way not keeping herself in check can spell a monstrous fate for her and one hell of a headache for the tower. Of course, 'learning' and 'succeeding' are two very different things, and she doesn't know much what to do other than withdraw from situations that are doing nothing but working her up to go sit somewhere and fume for a while.
KOHAKU Establishment of routine. Kohaku operates most comfortably when she doesn't have to actively ponder where to go and what to do next, and having motions to go through is the ideal. I'd like to drag her into pretty much anything, at this point, and she'll smile and nod to practically any imposition.
OU!RIKU: So, since the labyrinth event is over, and he and Sora had a (presumably) hug-filled reunion, Riku's got his shit together again after being totally useless for a week or so. In the sense of stalking everything at day, getting himself near killed at night and getting little to no sleep in between. orz
He's now: 1.) Constantly going out at Night to fight monsters (though not quite as recklessly). 2.) starting to really work at this mastering the balance thing!
KYOSUKE KIRYU: Whelp, Kiryu is kind of planning his revenge on the tower right now. And since the tower can't duel he's shifting to skill set #2. Which means explosives. ...He may or may not be raiding the laboratory for that. And whelp. Be manipulating some of the computers. /sob
Well, Kyoko's been here for less then a week and has only really managed to be rude to Ciel and trip all over herself because she was reunited with Sayaka. But I imagine she'd be up for killing monster and/or looking for food with other people.
