Context: Continued from Day 17 part 11. I present to you the final scene of the day, in which Miru is basically Drosselmeyer from Princess Tutu (I did this rp before I ever watched Princess Tutu, tho). I drew all the panels in this one all by myself and im very proud of me u__u

Context: Continued from Day 17 part 10. Something I never got the chance to rp was Audrey telling someone in beach AU about the Fibonacci sequence in nature: [link] She originally did it in zomb AU here: [link] and I thought it’d be a nice parallel if she could do it again, but oh well. xP

Context: Continued from Day 17 part 8. Aaaand we're back in the casino! The Talent Show is still going on. Please pretend that time inside the casino has been going SUPER slow, so after Kay and Mistress Norma’s act from Day 17 part 1, another duo had come on stage, performed a song, and left, with the audience still cheering after them. Beth and Audrey are up next, having practiced their act all afternoon.

Context: Continued directly from Day 17 part 7. Most of our camp weehawken rp was done on tinychat in those days, but you can view one of our interactions here: [link] The convo in the the thread i just linked will be referred to in this beach rp.

Context: Continued from Day 17 part 6. This doc and the next one feature a reunion btwn Lunchlady Miru and Cheap in the diner! Py and I just wanted to have a nice rp together, and we thought it would be perfect for me to use the lunch lady since she’s interacted with Weehawken Cheap before. This allowed us to be super self-indulgent as we tried to hit as many nostalgia points as we could~ xP There was a lot of cool meta stuff we got to include too, and of course rping Miru loving her friends and trying her best despite her omniscience is always fun :,)

Context: Continued from Day 17 part 5, though it’s like completely unconnected to it lol. I know the rp starts with “Today is her day off” even tho Miru was allegedly working in the morning but that was before I decided to include this rp into Day 17, okay? Okay.

I did this rp on a whim because i was bored and wanted to try rping Miru at the hotel gym while I myself was at the gym irl LOL. Thanks to Beth for humouring me. If you’ll recall, the one time I’ve interacted with Esther in the past was in Day 12 Intermission. This time, I decided that Miru would have a crush on Esther. 😂  

My usual pre-pandemic gym routine was: 10 min treadmill, then mat exercises (squats, core strength, pushups, abs, obliques, hip abductions, squats), then weight machines like pull-downs, hip thrusts, lats, triceps, then end with 10 min treadmill. Takes about an hour in total. In this rp tho, I skipped the treadmill at the end in favour for a smoother and more natural ending to the scene.

Context: Continued from Day 17 part 4 (and the hidden scene). Before you read this one, you should know that while the month-long rp with BJ was happening during Day 16, there was another month-long rp happening elsewhere: a Clown exorcism at the lighthouse, which Beth was a part of. To try put events into order, I’m gonna say to please pretend that the exorcism happened in the middle of the night last night and that Beth snuck out to the lighthouse some time after Audrey died and before the haunting of Circe. Here’s the summary of the exorcism rp, written by Bethmod:

(”her ghostly self” = mainverse Beth, who has a lot of supernatural powers, even more than what beach au Beth has)

Context: We finally have SCHRODER!!! :D This scene ALSO branches off from Day 17 part 2, and happens at the same time as Day 17 part 4 (in fact, it’s the same scene as Day 17 part 4, just from another perspective).

^^^Click on the link above for the google doc

Context: This scene branches off from Day 17 part 2! So it’s happening at the same time as Day 17 part 3. I think it was perfect timing for this rp to happen the day after Audrey encounters (and then forgets) Circe the Witch.

Required prerequisites to get the most out of this scene (and also the rest of the day) would be to read Dr. Seuss’s The Cat in the Hat, and also to watch Puella Magi Madoka Magica (the best order is to watch episodes 1-8, then jump to the 2nd movie (Eternal), then watch the 3rd movie (Rebellion). If you don’t watch all of PMMM before Day 17 part 5, you will be spoiled for the anime, unless u don’t care of course.

Context: Continued directly from Day 17 part 2. I had wanted this rp with Theo for many, many months, and had held onto my bird photos for almost a whole ass year just for this opportunity. ;;-;; We managed to finish the rp right before my flight to Houston to hang out with Elf. x,,)

This rp had 3 srs bsns goals. 1) Miru tries to get Theo to open up about Audrey’s death curse and giving him cryptic hints on what to do about it, since she’s been feeling really super guilty and wants to help but has to do it in a way that won’t mess up world order. 2) She also tries to foreshadow Collins stuff, because of....things that will happen later. 9_9 And 3) Schroder hints for the audience!!!

The whole convo is rather heavy, so the 4th and final goal was bird photo aftercare. :>

Context: Continued from Day 17 part 1. Audrey is alive again, and I felt like putting her in a braid today! Ponytail for Day 16, braid for Day 17. Wild, right? What’s next?? Also, assume that Miru left the casino right after Kay and Mistress Norma’s performance to visit Theo and Audrey. God I miss rping them so much.

I’M BACK from hiatus!! To post the last set of rps we did in the beach au discord server before everyone lost steam! \o/ Don’t worry tho, Day 17 is the longest day yet, and I feel like it’s akin to a season finale if anything, so please enjoy the ride ♥ And who knows, maybe I’ll continue the story someday |,D all on my own if i have to.

As for Context: It’s the day of the Talent Show!! But many other things will happen today as well :^) There’s no Audrey in this doc, but there ARE a whole bunch of new characters to introduce. 👀 I don’t think we’ve had this many characters in one rp since the wolf-in-the-restaurant scene in Day 5 part 1! xP

Day 17 Prologue (and true end of Day 16)

We did it!! I just wanna say that I had SO MUCH FUN drawing for this entire rp?? How do I express this… I just get so inspired to draw reaction images when I see my rp partners drawing reaction images. +v+ I love the way we can lift each other up like that. Surrounding urself with ppl who are good influences on you (not just in art, but in general) is the way to go, imo.

Below is a summary (of much more appropriate length!) of the boo crew rp, written by Beth:

^^^click on the link above for the google doc

Context: Directly continued from Day 16 part 8. I’m gonna use this space to give some Circe context without spoiling too much. This is all stuff that Beth told me.

Circe is actually thousands of years old! She and her sisters were born in Ancient Greece to a titan dad, so that’s where her magic and height come from. However, while she and her sisters were all equal in beauty, Circe was the only one who was a witch. She couldn’t control her powers back then, so everyone including her mother fawned only over her sisters while staying away from Circe because she was different and scary with her magic.

This left Circe feeling very isolated, and out of jealousy, Circe cursed her sisters to be sirens. Her dad was obsessed with controlling the cosmos and wasn’t around much, but she blames her past isolation on him because his power is what made her abnormal. She eventually learned to embrace being a witch, but her life thousands of years ago still sucked for a long time, so there’s still a bit of bitterness and resentment that remains today. But ofc all of this is still no excuse for killing ppl lmao.

In mainverse, Circe becomes a goddess of witchcraft and creates all magical beings and monsters, but she was nerfed for Beach AU. :,) So here she’s just a very good witch. She currently values 2 things: her beauty, and her ability to do magic. And it’s her magic that has allowed her to stay beautiful despite being thousands of years old....

As for Collins, he knows she’s a witch, but it’s still supposed to be her secret, so he won’t ever ask her to use her magic to help him for risk of exposing her (but he’s sure ok with taking full control and advantage of his daughter’s powers lol)

Below is a summary of the doc (spoilers):

Context: Continued directly from Day 16 part 7. FUN FACT: we almost decided to timeskip the ENTIRE possession lesson sfhfgjfjdfhfg like all the way starting from the beginning of Day 16 part 7 with the lamp up til the end of this doc! holy shit can u imagine

As I mentioned in the last doc, during the time of the rp I had recently finished watching all of neon genesis evangelion, so I was eager to compare human possession to piloting an eva, which is really more biological than mecha. Basically you sync your soul to the eva and if ur a good match, you can sync enough neurons with it to be able to control it. It also takes a bit of mental skill to sort through the host’s psyche, which impacts control as well, as shown in NGE. It’s so simple and elegant, yet complex at the same time, i love it….so i decided to pretend that’s how human possession works in this rp.

The way we rped Ted being possessed here was, I would tell Elf the outline of what I wanted Audrey to make Ted say and do, and Elf would type it out however they wanted and I 100% trusted them to bring my vision to life and they did it perfectly +o+ god if only other ppl could just rp for me all the time cuz that was great.

Another long summary of the doc below (spoilers):

^^^click on the link above for the google doc

Context: Continued directly from Day 16 part 6. The Beetlejuice refs continue as well, so I’ll do my best to point them out again.

I don’t think it was ever mentioned explicitly, but when the Clown walked thru ghost Audrey in Day 14 part 6, it unlocked her ghost powers, and so far we’ve been seeing her accidentally display them in the form of floating tears and more importantly, electromagnetic interference.

It was planned early on before the rp started that BJ would teach her how to possess ppl, as a ref to the movie. I then tried doing research on human possession so I could get an idea on how to rp it but...google only kept telling me what it felt like to BE possessed rather than what it felt like TO POSSESS someone, so it was pretty useless LOL so we figured we’d just make up possession lore ourselves along the way since it’s you know...Not Real!!

Ash then told me that by “possession” he means it as an umbrella term that covers both human AND object possession (i.e. electromagnetic interference). So that means that Audrey possessing the lamp in this scene, and later the TV, was just her controlling her electromagnetic interference powers, and then I realized: it could make sense if I had Audrey think of lamp->TV->human as increasingly complex levels of electromagnetic interference, since neurons in a human body generate tiny electrical signals as well. So how’s THAT for possession mechanics, huh? >:D

I then added and mixed in extra elements like psychic abilities for the TV and flower symbolism for humans, as well as phasing into things for better control, all of which I guess I’ll explain inside the doc because this is getting kinda long lol. But I really feel like I am onto something here. 😂

Below is a summary of the doc (spoilers). Again, it’s super long, so u might as well just read the doc:
