as far as pied piper is concerned, he’s as pointless as mass effect 3′s multiple endings. i mean, he’s a completely useless appendage and we all know it.     /     a multi for hbo’s silicon valley. written by maddie.

ABOUT THE STORY

      it’s the early nineties. when exiting out of decades of chaos, catastrophe and corruption, one might find themselves in a state of withdrawal. confusion. a want for change, but an inability to make it. it seems as if the system is holding one down, throwing obstacles in their way. 

     so, why not change the system? prince shilowich asked.

     with his leadership, the atheistic princinity compound in northern california was formed. entirely self-sufficient, populated with environmentalists, educational reformers, and activists. a group driven on intelligence and morality with hopes of creating a utopia where all men are equal, no men are corrupt, and there isn’t a catastrophe in sight.

     that’s to say before journalist investigations revealed lsd trafficking, taboo rituals, and attempted murder.

ABOUT THE GROUP

     this is a discord rp server based off the contents of @utoprison. the princinity compound is a cult that existed from the late eighties to 1995, and was run by prince shilowich and darshana muzumdar, his personal assistant. inspired by real-life cults such as rajneeshpuram and jonestown, this server will take place within the princinity compound’s golden years. the cult contains a hierarchy of power, from personal assistants to prince himself to leaders of certain divisions within the compound, as well as followers of many intellectual practices (medicine, environmentalism, law, philosophy, and more) and law enforcement. the cult exists on its own in siskiyou county, but is entirely self-sufficent: members farm their own food, construct their own living spaces, create their own recreational activities, and live together in harmony. they fight heavily for environmental change, education, law, and prison reforms, social justice, and rights to free speech. they make a somewhat substantial impact in california and raise awareness on injustice in government systems. but as great as this sounds, princinity also has a steady operation of lsd manufacturing and trafficking as well as numerous other criminal activities behind closed doors. they are known to stir incidents up with local towns nearby as well as trying to influence elections. oh, and prince may or may not be corrupt. 

     this is original character driven group, but exceptions may be welcome. they must be somewhat historical (90s) and be real (no mutants, witches). their role in princinity is entirely up to you! the only pre-established character is prince shilowich, who is open to anyone at the moment. 

HOW TO JOIN

     this group is 18+ and will contain triggering and nsfw themes. please be advised

     there’s no application process for the character as this is a very lowkey group at the moment. all you have to do is send me an im at either @utoprison or @kinemasent/message me on discord with your interest or ideas. as of right now, there’s no limits on who can join. i would prefer there to be a maximum of 3-5 characters per person, but this is open to mutuals/nonmutuals alike. oh and you don’t need a tumblr blog!

    message me if you’re interested or have any questions or concerns! feel free to reblog this post.

as i aaaam sure you’ve surmised from my worse-than-usual absence, i’ve been having a really difficult time getting motivated to hop online here. it sucks, and i miss writing with you all something fierce, but every time i log on i’m sorta lost for the entire english language.

i definitely still want to write! i just don’t trust myself to follow through on any of the promises i make re: this site. i don’t know - it might not be tumblr! it may just be me.

i have interest in canons and ocs i know couldn’t survive here, so i’ll be attempting to boot them up on discord. everyone i’ve played and everyone i plan to play will be available here:

just, uh, accept my apologies and let me know who you are if we haven’t interacted yet. (and i mean, like. apologies for everything. for all of this bullshit u put up with from me)

again, i may be in a rut of some sort. i could be back soon. i don’t know!

please shoot me a message on discord in the meantime. please end my suffering and write with me somewhere i can enjoy it

love, ur least reliable mutual xo

            “ — something i’ve never claimed to have. ”  think fast: dimi throws the box at him.  “ not much of a fiction person,  anyway. ”

he catches the thing without moving anything but his arm  ---  he’s grown accustomed to disgruntled customers throwing shit at him, so the reflex to swipe a box from the air comes pretty easy.  ‘ we don’t carry a lot of non-. you wanna tell me what it is you’re looking for? ’

“i’m not worried about it,” she admits, giving a small shrug. it’s not easy to shake shane, she’s been dealing with shit for too long. “everyone kind of reacts that way when i tell them i want to be a fashion designer. it’s normal.”

         ‘ he has a gift for making people regret... being genuine. ’ he speaks from experience, his sketchbooks ever tucked behind movies b won’t touch out of principle. ‘ this is it for him, so. i guess the idea of others doing well rubs him wrong. ’ his posture shifts, encouraging further sharing. ‘ fashion designer, huh? ’

          ‘ nah. i don’t have a television.  just followin’ my nose.  got yourselves some kooky energies comin’ outta the cracks in the walls, y’know that? ’  she scratches her cheek, looks like she’s thinking real hard about what to do next. she doesn’t fuck with ghosts, and she has no business renting films. there’s no real reason for her to be here, and yet here she is.

they’d always figured. to have it confirmed by an outsider, though, provides a real rush. murph smiles wide and leans forward onto their elbow, then balances their chin atop a closed fist.

         ‘ following your nose to a haunted video rental shop, ’ they say. ‘ all of which are pretty much fucked, energy-wise, to begin with. ’ a pause, and then, ‘ but this one. ours. how about that. ’

     ‘ Are you makin’ that up? You’re makin’ that up. ’ The cute bit, obviously. He looks like the kind of guy who might– intentionally or otherwise– alienate the good postpeople of the United States of America. Anyway, Belle loves a compliment. This is quickly becoming her favourite place to drop in. ‘ If you’re tryin’ to butter me up, I just want you to know– I don’t got a video player, and you still gotta pay your bills even if they conveniently go missin’. Sorry. ’ 

         ‘ that’s me, ’ he says, dry to a point well past amateur sarcasm, but falling short of biting, just the same. ‘ serial butter-er upper. ’

b presses pause for a beat, studies her like he’ll be questioned later on ( and he will  ---  lina’s miffed to be missing mail o’clock and is sure to demand a play-by-play when she’s back ), and tilts himself sideways into the nearest shelf, shoulder first.

         ‘ yeah. ’ there’s an unspoken piece: he’s been sizing her up since she walked in, which has become ritual with lina’s crushes. the speech is ultimately what sells him. ‘ definitely cute. ’

uh-huh.  dimi shifts his weight across his feet,  across his hips.  “ this one? ”  he tosses the box between his hands.  “ why not? ”

         ‘ it’s an insult, ’ he says, catching and holding eye contact. his deadpan tone doesn’t waver. ‘ to anyone with taste. ’

when i describe b’s voice as “extremely impassive” i’m not messing around

[rntal-blog]

without prefacing it with so much as an ah-hem to announce that he’s present, b is planted in place a couple feet away and saying, inflectionless,  ‘ you got a super weird vibe going.  ---  please don’t rent that one. ’
