~THE HAMSTER BALL~

GOOD PEOPLE OF TAXON: sup?

All y'all are cordially invited (someone really needs to explain to Glitch about vampires) to a festive holiday celebration...thing at the Northern Island. You know, that big lump of ice at the north end of town which hides a giant honkin' art neuvo palace. And a ballroom. And a bitchin' sound system. HALLS WILL BE DECKED, SWAG WILL BE...SWAGGERED. SANTA MAY VERY WELL BE PRESENT AND PELVIC-THRUSTY. Hors will be d'œuvre'd. Extra-gratuitous mistletoe might be lurking. Party post will go up on December 15 for maximum seasonal cheer, this one's for planning and hijinks.

YES YES BUT WHAT ABOUT THE DEEEEEETS?
~What are you wearing?~
~Who are you bringing?~
~Who's on your dance card?~
~Who are you going home with?~
~Show us your horrors!~

Come! Discuss! Get jiggy with your bad selves! Be dazzling!

This struck me as potentially awesome:

Make a list of five things your character would like to say to five different people and don't include their names. The messages don't have to be secrets. Try to keep it to those in Taxon, but if you need to pad your list, or it's really important, non-captives count too!

GO FORTH AND BE CRYPTIC! Remember: while this is an IC meme none of the knowledge gained here will carry over in-game.

I kow we've got folks going back to school and such so this may be a slow-burner, but I wanted to put it out there.

As we've got a fair few new characters (and players!) around, I thought it'd be a good time for a CR building/IC friending meme. Fill out the form below for each of your characters, check other people's replies, mingle, make connections, plot and be merry!

<b>Name:</b> <b>Age:</b> <b>Where are they originally from?</b> <b>Relationship status:</b> (a la Facebook) <b>How long have they been in Taxon?</b> <b>Do they have any special skills or hobbies?</b> <b>What groups/areas do they frequent in the city?</b> (aka employment, favorite hang-out spot, people they associate with, etc.) <b>Is there anything in particular you're hoping to accomplish with them that you haven't yet?</b>

Also, if there's anyone specific you'd like to thread with but haven't yet (or that you'd like to thread with more), go ahead and list them as well. Have fun!

~*~The Hug Meme~*~

This meme was basically made for Glitch and Kaylee. AHEM: Post your characters each individually, responding to the meme with a "wha" or another expression towards what they are about to experience...and then everyone and their mother comes along and hugs them. Yes. That's right. Hugs them. They can say something along with it; as long as it comes with a hug.

Keep in mind, you are not required to hug everyone in the meme.
