cocktailparty | [tdm + em] what keeps the pressure building, what takes your breath away?

HOW IT WORKS:

► STEP 1 | Post a comment with a character that's not in HH as if they're already in the setting; alternative version, post character who is in HH. Scenarios if you need 'em!
► STEP 2 | Tag around and get a feel for your characters, whether you're just voice testing or planning to actually app them in!
► STEP 3 | Post this all over your plurk and get people to join in on this jolly good fun. Don't forget: it's mandatory.

copypasta as per usual

ENABLE MEME

There are multiple ways to use this post:
PLAYERS IN GAME: post who you'd like to play next round or who you're unsure of playing, and then let other people ~~auction your soul off at an affordable price~~ gently push you into the direction of actually apping them come the new app cycle (concrete details later on that).
OR YOU COULD: Ask for castmates, be you in a cast or a lone canon warrior. Think of it like a kind of in game ATP ad.
IF YOU DON'T EVEN GO HERE: You might want to? If you do, feel free to post with your account, a picture, whatever you want and let us take you under our wing so you can be a part of our large, rowdy family.

So let the fun begin!

Woah! [ chikara had been coming out to do some location scouting when he was suddenly getting pelted with... skulls.

volleyball reflexes at least help him smack it away from his face, but he hisses, rubbing at his palm. ] Uh, are you - okay?

[ he steps a little closer to maybe distract a skeleton or two. they haven't been voilent, in his experience, just violently annoying-- ] They're not going to hurt you, I don't think.

[ What in the world is right!! ]

You don't know Jackie? [ Ah, what a sad life, no Jackie.... ]

[ the volleyball team has free practice periods during the afternoons, sometimes, and chikara's taking advantage of this one to hit spikes off of akaashi for twenty minutes.

he stops to switch out with tanaka and re-tie his shoes, take a drink from his water bottle, and blinks sidelong from where he's bent at the waist to set the bottle back down on the floor. he smiles. ] It is. Have you never played volleyball?

[he's in the middle of taking a shot when someone asks him a question. hori looks up to see an unfamiliar face. this place gets a lot of curious people asking about it, maaaybe it's a better idea not to go carelessly taking pictures ~~like nozaki~~.]

...Yeah, it is.

[he's kind of curious why that question, though.]

...Does it look like something else for you?

Oh, I see... [Except that's not very reassuring at all. However the farther she gets from that skeleton the better, and it looks like it's not following them as she glances over her shoulder quickly.]

Um, I'm fine, but that's not my name. You can call me Shinya!

[That is some really impressive skill, however Shinya holds up her hands in disgust as he seems to think she wants anything to do with it.]

N-no, I have one already thank you--!

[Meanwhile Shinya's still sort of frozen in her tracks, not quite sure of what to do until she hears a voice from nearby. Needless to say she's very quick to hurry over to his side. Please save her...!!]

I'm okay! I-I just-- wasn't expecting to see skeletons walking around, that's all!

[Obviously no one expects that.]

Well, sometimes. It's been hard to find a player that can hold up to Germany's standard--Not that it's a bad thing. I'm sure if Austria were still here he'd be even harsher.

I would play it, but I'm more in tune with the violin.

Ah, sorry, sorry, it's just what you call a cute girl right? You call them bella when you don't know their names.

But now that I know your name, it's a pleasure to meet you Shinya.

[ he gives her a smile before giving a sweeping bow ]

I'm Venezia Italia, you can call me Italy.

[He's such a gentleman...! She's a bit flustered now. What a nice man.]

Ah, I didn't know! I hope I didn't sound rude! That's very nice of you, thank you--

[That's apparently possibly crazy.]

Italy?

...you mean, like the country?

Edited 2015-10-28 01:00 (UTC)

No, no, it's alright. I didn't think you were rude at all.

[ there was the look up before straightening himself ]

Well, yes? I mean, there are others here... Vietnam, Germany. We're like, a manifestation--an embodiment of the country.

[Crickets chirp.]

Ah... it sounds... within reason? [No. Honestly, it doesn't. But then she comes from one of those anime worlds where everything isn't quite normal so it's hard for her to throw judgment.]

I know it's a lot to take in... but I assure you, it's normal where I'm from. There's more of us, they're just not... here.

[ he gives a nervous little smile as he rubs the back of his head ]

Germany and I run The Ritz hotel here together, and you can find Vietnam at the Honeybee Bakery if you ever want to meet them.

I-I don't mean to sound so doubtful! [She hurriedly bows.] It's just something I never thought was possible... though there are a few things that aren't normal where I am from... and you own businesses! You're so responsible as people!

I was brought here by the landlord, same as everyone.

[ unless he means at the shopping center, but honestly, what else would nozaki be doing. ]

I can't believe you're finally here.

[yeah the shopping center is an obvious question.]

"Finally?" What do you mean... [he trails off, having a bad feeling about this...]

It's been a few years. I think. We generally keep track by the seasons at home, but I don't usually bother with that.

[she looks around, unable to hide a little smile.] I kinda missed this place, come to think of it.

[she also kinda missed having a pulse but hey.]

I hear you. [ It's hard to keep track of time after the first century or so. ] We missed you, yeah?

[ Well, he did. But he knows he's not the only person here who enjoyed her company, even if a lot of the older residents have left recently. ]

[ Whereas Hong Kong kind of missed being human. Ah. ]

[When he bumps into her, she steps back into a fighting stance, basically. But then he apologizes, so clearly he wasn't picking a fight. She grins.]

It's okay, blondie.

[She smacks him on the chest, friendly-like.]

You don't have to pretend to walk into me just for an excuse to talk to such a gorgeous girl...

[She eyes him up and down, appraisingly. Well, he's no Waka, but... Not half bad. And he's in basketball gear.]

Basketball, huh? You any good?

[She perks up when she spots Nozaki.][She's running up to him in a minute, craning her neck around to look for Chiyo. Where Nozaki is, she can almost always be found.]

You change your mind about playin' basketball, now that you've got nothing better to do?

And where's Chiyo?

[She frowns]

It's no fun to play people if they're no good at the sport. What's your specialty? I fill in on the basketball team, but I'm good at everything, to be honest.

[To be quite honest, she cares not to whom she speaks.]

Sure. Why, did you put money on me or something?

[Her eyes flash, suddenly. Unsettlingly.]

Or... did you fall in love with my voice?

[ he shifts so she can get behind him, or something. ] I'm glad you're not hurt. Um, we should probably get on the sidewalk, they can't leave the lawns...

[ or maybe they can, For Meme Purposes, but he's trying his best. ] They were kind of a surprise to a lot of people, you're not alone.

[ What a cool vibe... She cares not to whom she speaks! He can dig it. ]

I'm in love with someone else's voice. Sorry. But yours is pretty good too, of course.

[ Don't sound so ambiguous, Hong Kong! ]
