an admirable history

Thanks again for playing, friends ♥ Since it's been a little while since our last discussion-slash-free-for-all, anything goes! Questions about characters or the plot? Process? Comments? Memes? Requests? Etc. You can find some previous examples in our OOC tag!

Hello friends! I made Zazzle (and myself) a bunch of special Demonverse tea blends for Christmas from Design a Tea, and thought I'd share them with you for anyone who might want to order any. Unfortunately, unlike Adagio you can't order them directly, but you CAN fill out the elements to get the same teas.

I'll also give my label names and you can ask to use my labels by name. The label name I used is in bold, and if you want it to appear with the images I picked, you might need my real name - if you don't have it already, it's Zrerqvgu Xngm - use ROT-13 to decrypt. So, you know "Please use [real name]'s 'Dr. Filangieri: Deep Sleep' label!, and hope that works.)


Bastien: Mistakes are Made - Rum-Cinnamon Oolong
(Base: Oolong, Flavor 1: Rum, Flavor 2: Cinnamon, Herb: Cloves - whole)

Kit: Old Linen - Cinnamon-Plum Rooibos.
(Base: Rooibos, Flavor 1: Cinnamon, Flavor 2: Plum, Herb: no herb.)

Tristan: Humanist Interest - Cherry-Lemon Green
(Base: Green, Flavor 1: Cherry, Flavor 2: Lemon, Herb: Lemongrass)

Kieran: Divine Calling, Infernal Desires - Pumpkin-Vanilla Black
(Base: Black, Flavor 1: Pumpkin, Flavor 2: Vanilla, Herb: Cinnamon)

Elli: Witch Way - Strawberry-Caramel Black
(Base: Black, Flavor 1: Strawberry, Flavor 2: Caramel, Herb: Lavender)

Luka: Sweet Smoke - Blackberry-Caramel Oolong
(Base: Oolong, Flavor 1: Blackberry, Flavor 2: Caramel, Herb: no herb.)

Mr. Sidney: Butler, Please - Amaretto-Zabaglione Black
(Base: Black, Flavor 1: Amaretto, Flavor 2: Zabaglione, Herb: Rose petals)

Lucia: Don't Disobey - Mango-Ginger Green
(Base: Green, Flavor 1: Mango, Flavor 2: Ginger, Herb: No herb)

David: Deep Shadows - Mocha-Hazelnut Oolong
(Base: Oolong, Flavor 1: Mocha, Flavor 2: Hazelnut, Herb: Yerba mate)

Dr. Filangieri: Deep Sleep - Vanilla-Honey Rooibos
(Base: Roiboos, Flavor 1: Vanilla, Flavor 2: Honey, Herb: Chamomile)

Maon: An Coineachan - Apricot-Black Currant Rooibos
(Base: Rooibos, Flavor 1: Apricot, Flavor 2: Black Currant, Herb: Lavender)

Madison: Blind Eye - Orange-Cranberry Green
(Base: Green, Flavor 1: Cranberry, Flavor 2: Orange, Herb: Lemon Balm)

Hope people enjoy if they get -- based on samples I got before making up actual full blends, my personal favorite (Haru) is probably Luka's, which tastes, indeed, sweet and smoky, though Mr. Sidney's is certainly a (bizarrely fancy) treat!

(And if anyone has any questions on the blends or flavors or whatever let me know)

Hey guys! Those of you following the plurk (which you should do if you're not already, reminder!) probably saw a tentative game planning for this weekend and were wondering why there has been no followup.

Alas, Zazzle and I both have had a lot of work things come up this week, and will probably have work we have to take care of this weekend (for one thing, I might have to go in) so we are postponing the planned game until February 28-March 2 ETA: March 14-March16 (this time for as close to sure as is reasonably humanly possible).

Save the date! We will make the game twice as awesome to make up for you having to shuffle schedules! ♥

1) Keep threading in epilogue as long as you want; we'll be picking up throughout the week.

2) Remember to friend/follow @demonverse on Plurk as the all our announcements will go up there (thumbtacking arsgoetia on DW is also a good idea in case for some reason we miss a Plurk signalboost). Our webpage is here and now that there's a breather we will be working on updating it with remaining info/stuff from these last two games. Also Zazzle and Haru stay in #deadgaysatanists on IRC all the time, so feel free to join us and just hang out forever for demonverse chatter.

3) AS ALWAYS, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR PLAYING ♥ We love playing with you guys—you always make it a genuine pleasure to run events ///. Game date announcement for Game 14 should be going up right after this post!


Now, the purpose of the post! ANYTHING GOES. We invite questions and discussions of absolutely anything (although we reserve the right to smile mysteriously over anything that might give away the plot of future games, you can still ask anything). And ANYTHING ELSE. Self-indulgences, memes, music you were listening to, anythiiiing. If you want to know the usual sort of thing, our last one was here but really go wild. It's called Anything Goes for a reason.

Hi Demonversers!

As you all know real life has turned into a ferocious swarm of piranhas for us recently. As such we want to note that even though we've tried to do games each September as a celebration thing, we prooobably won't get to one this year. We're hoping to do a combination anniversary-halloween game in October but we'll let you know based on how life is looking what with unexpectedly having to move and all o7.

--oh, yes, did I say anniversary?

HAPPY 3 YEARS, DEMONVERSE!!

Thank you all for playing with us for three years straight -- for being there to play, to drive the story, to change the characters, to make Demonverse the thing it is today. We're so happy to be even able to SAY "Three Years", you have no idea. ♥

Even though we can't do a celebratory anniversary game this year, we do want to have some fun so let's have an in-between-games anything-goes meme and an Ask Me Anything! For the former, feel free to dump any pics, fics, filks, fun memes (for example, you might want to know that if Tristan were animated, it would be By Production I.G., a 21 episode yuri anime about Tristan Valentine's pantsu.), or anything else demonversy you want to toss around! Songs you've heard, whatever. For the latter, ask us anything you want -- about our methods, the plot so far, habits we have, anything at all you want to ask about. (If it is something which is a super plot spoiler we'll tell you as much, but it never hurts to ask)!

Anyway, we love all you guys, and again, thank you for spending all this time with us helping ghosts and getting hit on by demons (or occasionally vice versa).

Our utmost apologies for the long delay, and now, the short notice! The next Demonverse session will be on June 30th & July 1st (Saturday/Sunday) for Haru's birthday weekend~ with some carryover and wrapup on the Monday. Just a short game, but we will hopefully not wait . . . six months . . . to run the next one . . .

The timeframe we're looking at is . . . most of the afternoon and evening, with the key stuff probably starting around noon PST on both days, and the climax/wrapup stuff will probably be on Sunday around 7 or 8 PST, but you can feel free to come and go if you need to eat or do things with your lives or whatever, just as long as we know ahead of time what your timeline looks like so everyone can plan accordingly.

The game will PROBABLY be running on IRC this round. If there are significant objections to this we can run a journal game, but because of the short timeframe, this will probably be easier! Because of this, we would like it if players are around more-or-less consistently or predictably, so please keep that in mind!

If you're new to the game, please check out the FAQ here and feel free to ask us any questions! We'll accept any characters currently played in CFUD/Aather/Thusia/Sabra/EC/etc, and dropped characters that have previously played in Demonverse. If you have any questions about whether or not a character is suitable, just ask, but there's more info in the FAQ about character suitability, so check that first!

Comment below with your character name and email~ ♥ As always, we look forward to having you~

Congratulations everybody, I decided against putting this all in code!

1) As always, THANKS FOR PLAYING ♥ It was a bit derpy and silly and really just an excuse to hang out but we had a lot of fun and hope you did too. You guys are always amazing ♥

Thank you again CROW for doing Lucia's new blonde icons! You are always awesommme.

2) Now, the purpose of the post! ANYTHING GOES. We invite questions and discussions of absolutely anything (although we reserve the right to :) over anything relevant to future games). And ANYTHING ELSE. Self-indulgences, memes, drabbles, art, facebook statuses, anythiiiing. If you want to know the usual sort of thing, our last ones were here, here, and here!

3)You can always keep threading in endgame and epilogue as long as you want; I have the posts tagged and when notifs stop rolling in I will start to shift us over to dreamwidth. As we mentioned before we will let you guys know when we do so you can all stalkerpin that journal.

THAT SAID, the current minimalist layout cuts all posts off visibly at 500 comments... you can keep threading but you can't scroll down past that. It is also the only layout that mimics the old LJ one. Our options are to switch to a layout that doesn't or ....do that temporarily and make some kind of directory in each post to all the comments, if you want to backread anything. Or just wait until we're over at DW to backread... Let us know your preferences on how to handle this stupid, stupid conundrum.

Also Zazzle and Haru stay in #deadgaysatanists all the time, so feel free to join us and just hang out for occasional "oh man this song reminds me of tristan's face" or whatever.

4) Please make sure you have this journal on stalkerpin, or, if you don't want to, give us your plurk name to put you on the demonverse clique, as we aren't really doing announcements of new games, fun things, etc, outside those two places. Thanks!

So you are new to demonverse, or maybe old hat to demonverse and just want to read this for the fun of it! I made a post for you to help you with things that you might have questions about generally!

( What is Demonverse? )

AS ALWAYS!!1

Kinkmeme AKA fic request meme AKA art dump meme AKA ask-us-questions-about-anything AKA stupid memes go here AKA whatever you want.

Previous one was here and the one before it was here, for reference.
