Event || Window of Opportunity

Characters: All Heroes of Light.
Where: Aqures Ixen - Everywhere
When: September 25th - From 12:30 to 22:30.
Summary: Heroes of Light will relive the same ten hours over and over again until they find a solution. This may be a blow to what's left of their sanity, but that's also a window of opportunity! The OOC Post is here for more information! It's not too late to sign-up, anyone can still jump right into the event! However, your vote for the total number of loops will not be taken into account any more.

Speaking of which-- Votes are in and this time displacement madness will be solved after 191 loops. Practically speaking, this means characters going through every single loop will live 2 months, 2 weeks, 3 days and 14 hours in the span of half a day. Hopefully they won't mind the food for the day, the clothes they're wearing or what they were doing when the loop started, because that's what they'll be stuck with until the end. There are some events described below, but there will be no NPC replies. Feel free to partake in these events and of course, make your own!

Warning: Too many time loops may be bad for your mental health.


The Flence Salesman
— All Day Long —

There is a salesman from Flence in the city, and he is going for every person he sees in the streets. Adults, children or elders, humans or tarutarus, it doesn't matter to him so long as he can make money! He will try to sell to the characters specialties from Flence and some crystals at absolutely awful prices, but he's open to negotiations and beyond that, he's extremely persistent. Normally, nobody would care about this, but given the salesman isn't be aware of the loop, he'll keep doing the same things over and over again... Hopefully he won't see your characters, otherwise he might just bother them for every single loop.


Moogle Demonstration for the Future of Mognet
— 12:30 => 16:00 —

For a surprise one-day long strike, the Moogles are demonstrating! There are roughly 800 Moogles together (250 according to the government, 5000 according to the striking Moogles) in the demonstration, all singing slogans and some even holding placards with "More Gil and Less Work" or "Give us Kupo Nuts" signs.

They started at 10:00 and left from the 09th District, but they will go throughout every district and explain what their protest is about. They'll finish at 16:00 and will be back to the 09th District to eat Kupo Nuts and drink Chocobo Milk together.


Biggs' Grand Return
— 14:00 => 22:30 —

After a month spent in the hospital, Biggs is finally back! He leave the Hospital at 14:00 and head straight for the Castle of Aqures Ixen. Noticeably he still has a broken and bandaged arm, but he'll pretend to be totally fine and for that matter, he will be as rude and as unfriendly as ever. He will spend most of the day in the Castle, but will go in Palitutu's Lab by 19:00 to meet with Cid. Among other things, he will side-eye everyone and will accidentally splash Cid's coffee on a Hero of Light working there (or on a Moogle, should the Hero have the good sense to avoid Biggs next loop).


Renovation of the Blitzball Stadium
— 15:30 => 20:00 —

The repairs are going steadily and today, a special dome from Trano Golsaucia is being transported and placed on the Blitzball Stadium, brand new and much more modern than what Aqures Ixen used to have! On the downside however, the airship bringing the dome and the work being done on the stadium are all very, very noisy. So noisy that everyone in a two-district radius will be bothered by it.

Under normal circumstances it would have been only for a short time and easilly bearable, but here it will happen for every single loop.


Have You Heard of the Heroes of Light?
— All Day Long —

Throughout the day, a few people are going to go and knock on every doors in the city, to talk about a most fascinating topic: the Heroes of Light! They will speak about how it is said the Heroes of Light are in Crystallis and how they managed to defeat the empire without difficulties back during the attack! Then they will go on and ask for a contribution (hear: money) to help the Heroes of Light in their cause. Of course, these people are dishonest and the money will go into their own pockets, as they don't believe in the Heroes of Light to begin with.

And of course, they'll go knock on doors during every single loop!


The Accident
— 22:29 => 22:30 —

The one minute that started it all. Who is the imbecile who committed the mistake on Palitutu's computer? Is this a Moogle or a Hero of Light, maybe Cid or Biggs? Whoever it is, after the first time, at 22:29 the program will start again on its own and will activate the loop right at 22:30, sending everything back to 12:30. The characters may try to run more programs to block the computer, cut the energy source or even bomb the building if they so wish...

But these archaic and barbaric solutions won't prevent the next loop from happening. Only hard work and scientific solutions shall prevail!

Umiko turned looking at the blond girl curiously. If it meant that she could step away from Rudder and the rest of the crowd for a moment then the answer was yes.

"What questions that?"

She walked over letting Rudder stay next to those he's met during the protest.

"I am wondering what your opinion on love is?" She knew people have there own thoughts, but she never really asked before now, so she thought why not? So she thought why not ask others. Plus they might not remember tomorrow and she would, so it worked out.
navigatortotheking: (Confident)

[personal profile] navigatortotheking 2015-09-29 04:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Umiko blinked a few times. That was not the question she was expecting.

"I guess it's alright." She had a few childhood romances and crushes but they didn't ever work out very well. "I prefer to focus on my dream and my friends. There is time for love later."

Umiko didn't think love was in the cards for her and that was fine.
soldierofloveandbeauty: (Venus ♀ Only see skirt)

[personal profile] soldierofloveandbeauty 2015-09-30 12:08 pm (UTC)(link)
"But when is there a time for love? People don't just grab the moment when they can... Though." She paused for a moment, this might be the best chance at trying something.

"What do you like in a man... or woman, but I assume you like men, right?"
navigatortotheking: (Eh)

[personal profile] navigatortotheking 2015-09-30 04:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Umiko's smile dropped into a frown. "Yes, I like men." Not to say she hadn't experimented with woman but this stranger didn't need to know about her history. She wasn't really sure where this conversation was heading but it worried her.

"What's that have to do with anything?"
soldierofloveandbeauty: (Minako ♀ Ahaha sweatdrop)

[personal profile] soldierofloveandbeauty 2015-10-02 02:44 pm (UTC)(link)
"Nothing, nothing. Might seem like an odd way of getting to know each other, but...I guess to be equal I can say I like men as well." Because the other will forget that eventually, so she won;t have to say it again.

"But I guess... Have you ever had that thumping feeling in your chest that no matter what you try and do it never goes away?"

Umiko was older than Minako by a few years. She’s felt all sorts of affection for a wide range of different kinds of people. Since then Umiko has focused more in her work than in her love life, there was always time for romance but it wasn’t the sort of thing she liked forcing.

“Yeah. When I was younger though that ship has already sailed,” Literally in this case, “I’ve had my heart broken enough times that it’s nice to just get away from all that stuff. Besides there are more important things to consider,” Like her dreams and her future, as it was, her world might not be around for much longer.
soldierofloveandbeauty: (Minako ♀ Smile with Artemis)

"I know the fate of the world is a thing right now, but don't people say to live for the moment like it might be your last?" She knew of the saying but didn't know much beyond that, he just said it to make whatever point she was trying to make.

"I'm sure there are plenty of things you would want to do in your last moments if this was, right? Romance not one of them? Even just a kiss?"
navigatortotheking: (Eh)

[personal profile] navigatortotheking 2015-10-04 02:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Umiko blushed slightly glancing around a little awkwardly. She'd probably want something like that in her last moments but there was one problem with that.

"I'd need someone to kiss first."

[personal profile] soldierofloveandbeauty 2015-10-05 12:40 pm (UTC)(link)
"So you don't have anyone you are interested in?" She asked tilting her head slightly giving a slight confused look. She had no idea people might not always have a crush on someone like she tended to.
navigatortotheking: (Confident)

[personal profile] navigatortotheking 2015-10-07 01:09 am (UTC)(link)
"Not right now, no." Umiko just travels to much. It's hard to keep up a crush when someone is out of sight.

"Is that strange?"
soldierofloveandbeauty: (pic#8025732)

[personal profile] soldierofloveandbeauty 2015-10-08 10:49 am (UTC)(link)
"I guess it's different when one is an adult. When one is like me and young we get crushes all the time and always have someone we like." There were such big differences she is discovering right now.
navigatortotheking: (Default)

[personal profile] navigatortotheking 2015-10-08 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Umiko smiled.

“Well, yeah. You find out what you want and what you don’t want.” It was a learning process after all. Umiko just hadn’t meat her king yet.

“So is there someone you like now?” Her voice was light, teasing the young hero. Maybe Umiko can play match maker for the young girl.
soldierofloveandbeauty: (Minako ♀ Uhhh with Chibi-Usa)

[personal profile] soldierofloveandbeauty 2015-10-09 12:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Minako couldn't help but go slightly red before laughing and shaking he head slightly.

"I mean there good looking people around here, but no one I would ever consider having a crush on." Not any more anyway, if Usagi were to ever come she would choose her always. Even now her thought went with her princess.
navigatortotheking: (huh)

[personal profile] navigatortotheking 2015-10-09 08:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Umiko felt like there were undertones to that statement that weren’t being expanded on. She glanced back at Rudder who was completely absorbed in the rally and then turned to Minako with a soft smile.

“Why is that?”

She found it curious that this young girl was interested in other’s love life but not her own.

[personal profile] soldierofloveandbeauty 2015-10-12 11:06 am (UTC)(link)
"Because that's just the way it is right now." Which was in part true. There were cute people but no one that she was really into currently. She will just think people are cute, but she knew others had much more of a chance than she did anyway.
navigatortotheking: (huh)

[personal profile] navigatortotheking 2015-10-12 04:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Umiko nodded.

"If you say so." Minako was a strange girl. "I should probably get back to Rudder."
soldierofloveandbeauty: (Minako ♀ Grin and bear it)

[personal profile] soldierofloveandbeauty 2015-10-13 12:07 pm (UTC)(link)
"Okay, I shall leave you, but I'm sure another day we'll meet again." And with those words she spun on her heels and started to head off
