Event -- Age up/down!

[rubycitymods]

That's right, it's time for another event!

During Monday, March 11th, some the residents will start to feel a little strange. It won't be something they can put their fingers on, but at the stroke of midnight things will become clear. This prelude is completely optional even for those who will be affected by the rest of the event, but when the clock chimes, everyone who is opting in will face an age change.

From Tuesday, March 12th, there will be some new faces around the city - or, at least, they might look new, until you take a closer look. Some people are going to get younger, some will be older, and there'll no doubt be confusion all 'round!

You can be as creative as you like with how much you age your character up or down, and whether or not their mental state follows along with it. If you are ageing up, and wish your character to have been trapped in Ruby City for the number of years that you're adding on, that's absolutely fine, but please keep the mechanics of the city in mind if you are going to fabricate memories for them to fill that time period.

This event will run until the clock chimes midnight on the night of Friday, March 15, but feel free to backtag into the event if you miss it, or don't get to do everything that you might have wanted to.

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND: The consequences of any actions taken during this event are very real! When the residents return to their original ages at the event's end, they will also remember everything that they did while they were altered. If they do something stupid, they won't just be able to shrug it off and pretend they don't remember!

Anita is getting aged down to eighteen, which means that not only will she be extremely anti-monster again ("the only good vampire is a dead one" and "better dead than furry" being her mottos), but she hasn't had any combat training yet. Also more embarrassed about her zombie shenanigans than she currently is.

Emma will be unaffected and just kind of staring at everyone in disbelief.

Severus will be aged down to about fifteen, as awkward and bitter as ever.

Thor is going to be eleven or so again, which means he'll be lacking a lot of the compassion he has now and be a much more abrasive and narcissistic creature than most of his friends here know him to be. But he still loves Loki, okay.

[a_decade_of_rot]

0 u 0 Aaaaniiitaaaa

also {...} and Emma can be embarrassed for everyone, y/n?

[animator]

Yes they can! I want that. XD

(Anita's still okay with you, {...}, zombies are monsters she still has an affinity for. :( But it's an embarrassing curse, okay.)

[primrosepath]

Yeees wonderful

oh good because he likes Anita and he'd rather not have teenager!her hate him

[proudofyou]

YES GOOD.

Emma and Whale can bond over normalness ok.

[animator]

YES THEY CAN.

[badnewsboy]

getting ready for this, oh god. DONT RUN INTO TRAFFIC, THOR.

[animator]

He's going to need a babysitter in the worst way.

[badnewsboy]

i'm so sorry about all the manipulation in advance

[you_have_heart]

SO ANITA AND HER OVERLY PROTECTIVE HOUSEMATE


ALSO LOKI AND HIS BROTHER COMPLEX ALSO A TINY THOR

THINGS NEED TO HAPPEN

[animator]

FUCK YES ALL OF THESE THINGS

HAPPENING

SO MUCH ARE THEY HAPPENING

Chase after Thor as he runs into the park looking for monsters to beat up. :D

[badnewsboy]

BICKERING ABOUT HOW TO TAKE CARE OF THE CHILDREN

[trytryagain]

Now I'm temped to age Homura up instead of down so she and Anita can be the same age.


Assuming that an aged up Homura would look older than she does now. Which... I'm not sure.

[animator]

Yesssss look at how cute this bitty-nita is. You know you want to be friends and share your dead stuff woes with her.

[triskeles]

o ok Anita teenderek sees how it is.

[animator]

At least she's not a hunter yet. ;_; She'll be more afraid of him than anything.

[herzlos]

SEVERUS, COME AND HUG YOUNG!REGINA imeanwhat.

... Is it a bad thing that I really, really want Emma to either meet young!Regina or Queen!Regina? Queen!Regina a little more for maximum GRRR

Y/N/PIE?

[animator]

YES I WANT THOSE HUGS I also still want young!Regina to lecture Severus about him being hot for dark magic.

EMMA CAN MEET BOTH.

Y/PIE. Always pie.

[renaissancerevenge]

Dunno if you saw on Plurk, but I like Sabra's idea of bitty/10 yr. old!Ezio hitting on Anita.
And then Loki stepping in.

"How you doin', principessa~?" XD

[animator]

Oh my god I missed this because I was out of the house all day.

Oh my god yes.

I think this is going to be her most-used face this event, honestly.

[betteroffdead]

Aristeo here is going to be a socially awkward and bitter 15 year old, too. Maybe he and Severus could bond over hating the world together? XD

[animator]

Absolutely, Slytherins unite! <3

[masked_stag]

Gonna love this. Older!Bae/Neal plus a bitty Henry for Emma to enjoy. And Snape can have fun with eleven year old James.

[animator]

YES! Snape will certainly be butting heads with James, and Emma will be distraught. Henry won't remember her, and wtf Neal's here?! Her life is confusing. :(

[seamistress]

Little Thor might have young Signless watch over him and tell him to behave >_>
