EVENT
Did you hear that? Did you see that? Your mind is probably playing tricks on you, but you can't be sure. It's possible you've been listening to too much Christmas music, or the spirit of the season has suddenly gripped you. Well, it actually has. Consider this your first event, everyone: suddenly, everyone will be experiencing the following changes in your senses:
☃ Hearing: bells. Bells everywhere you go. Whether you're in the bathroom, out on a stroll, in bed, you will hear bells. They won't always be loud; they can often be faint. Sometimes they'll disappear for a time, but then return louder than before. Just try pulling a pillow over your head or using earplugs, godlings. Jingle all the way indeed.
☃ Smell: pine. This will manifest itself in a slightly different way. Rather than everything smelling of pine, everything that has a smell will give off the scent. Your deodorant, your perfume, your mouthwash. All pine. If you rely on fragrances to get you through the day, we're very sorry. (Only not.)
☃ Sightings: Santa. Yes, you read right. Reincarnates, you may be able to catch little glimpses of someone who may be Santa Claus -- or someone dressed as him, in any case. Whether he's walking around the corner, stepping into your bathroom, or disappearing into the elevator, someone who looks like Saint Nick will be caught wandering around, but no one will be able to see his face to confirm.
☃ Taste: gingerbread and candy canes. Not as common as the bells or pine, on occasion, the things you eat or drink will taste of gingerbread cookies or candy canes. That panini sandwich you love? Candy cane. That salted caramel hot chocolate? Gingerbread.
Fortunately for you, we're leaving your touching senses unharmed. Everything else will be affecting you, godlings, but perhaps not all at the same time. If you find yourself going a little crazy, it's got nothing to do with what is going on around you. Nothing at all.
All events including this one will not be mandatory. This means if you want to skip the event, you can! If there's an event we would prefer people partook in, we'll mention it, but for the time being, assume all events are not mandatory. That said, for those who wish to play out their characters' reactions, please use the "[event]" tag in all of the comms, including OOC. You don't have to specify which number, just that it is set during an event.
This event will last from the moment your character wakes up today (Wednesday) to the end of next Wednesday, the 28th. This is indeed after Christmas. We'd like for your kids to enjoy their New Year's Eve without complaint. :)
Merry Christmas, etc. to all! All comments, concerns and such can go here. Please also take a gander at this post when you find the time. Feel free to also use this post for plotting purposes!
