Plotted starter for @ofmoraliity ~ Alastor & Vox [ ft: Velvette & Rosie ]

Alastor idly ran a clawed finger along the thin cane of his microphone, eyes fixed on Carmilla and wide grin firmly in place, making it impossible to tell what might be going on in his mind. It had been a long time since he had attended one of those meetings. Ten years? More? In any case, it had been longer than he cared to remember.

The truth was that, even before his, ah, "sabbatical", he used to attend them only sporadically. While he understood the strategic value of such events, he had always found most of them quite pointless. It was all about settling disputes over territories and all the sort of politics no one cared about. Fact that was proven mere hours after said meeting had ended, when one of the Overlords crossed the lines they had voted to establish, as if the discussion had never happened.

In spite of all that, he was ready to admit that things seemed to have changed since the last time he had been in town. With Carmilla Carmine holding the reins, the discussion was handled by someone who not only had some proper common sense, but who also never beat around the bush and wasted everyone's time.

Also, unlike the previous times, he had an actual stake to defend, since he was sponsoring Charlie's hotel and said little endeavour was intimately connect with the whole Extermination talk. So, perhaps, that meeting would have turned out to be productive, to an extent. A little disappointing, since no one seemed to care about his prolonged absence, but not a total waste of his time.

Or, at least, he had believed so until the door had been shoved open, cutting Carmilla's off mid-sentence, and Velvette and Vox had stepped in the conference room. "Fashionably late", someone would have called them, but in Alastor's eyes, it was merely rude cheekiness.

The Radio Demon's expression remained unchanged, even if that took an extra effort when Velvette hopped in the spot at the other head of the table, leaving her associate the only still available seat. Namely, the one next to Alastor himself.

Oh deer.

He could have almost sworn that Velvette's eyes had locked on him for the briefest moment, before she had directed her attention back to her phone. Paranoia wasn't something he often indulged into, since he found it extremely inconvenient and annoying, but he couldn't help wondering if her choice of seat had a second aim.

"Before you ask, it's just me and Voxxy," the fashionista spoke up, before anyone could address the newcomers. "Val has better shit to do than listening to an old windbag like you. I was planning on coming on my own to represent, but someone insisted on tagging along."

Only then her gaze left the screen once more, this time landing on Vox, her painted lips curling in a subtle grin that was half way between knowing and mocking.

"Isn't that right, my darling?~"

T-62 jumpscare as it comes barreling through.

Literally, the first thing you'll see from it is the barrel.

[fstbmp-a]

They're both deceased (as a vain and foolish attempt to not write them) but using this picrew I've made Sol's parents

Meet Aed and Halo, the ex-emperor and empress of Sol. If you asked any of the general populace, they'd call them heroes and the most noble leaders you could've met. If you asked anyone that actually knew them, they'd have wanted them both dead sooner.

"Mirth wdym by this" i'm going to post their (incomplete) chara inspo boards and let them speak for themselves.

Does that make sense now?

The four joined in the applause as necessary during the King's speech. Calista looked around, trying to find any sight of the prince.

"Where is the prince...?"

"Probably somewhere in these crowds nearby." Asthar noted. "There are a lot of attendees, so he'll be difficult to spot."

"We should at least give our greetings to him briefly if we can." Arganan stated, a sigh leaving him as he adjusted the jacket of his suit.

"Agreed." Therius glanced around. "The only question is...how are we going to find him?"

[doomxdriven]

A little detail into the makeup of Jin's followers, allies, and other associates who (so far) play a notable role in his main verse;

Subordinate's

The Bount

Jin’s first followers, and some of the last remaining members of his tribe. Many of these individuals have followed Jin for hundreds of years. There are a few among the Bount who wish to kill Jin for one reason or the other (Sawatari, Utagawa, Yoshino), but regardless they all more or less follow his lead, if not out of fear, then out of respect for his power and their desire to see their shared goals fulfilled.

Former Wandenreich

A small collection of Quincy who at some point in time previously counted themselves among the ranks of the Wandenreich. Some of these individuals sought refuge with the Bount after the Wandenreich's destruction and the subsequent 'death' of their former King, others were coerced by Jin into joining his cause at various other points in time, and in one specific instance, were sent to him on behalf of an ally.

These Quincy are loyal to Jin, to an extent, and follow him either out of shared distaste for the Shinigami, for his charisma, or for promises he has made to them.

Arrancar

When the Wandenreich invaded Hueco Mundo, a great number of Arrancar were conscripted into their ranks or imprisoned, and after the Wandenreich's fall, not all of their formerly aligned Arrancar or Arrancar prisoners were content to stay within Hueco Mundo. A handful of these Arrancar would wind up in the World of the Living for one reason or the other (following their former Wandenreich overseers or not wanting to live under Harribel's rule), where they were inevitably noticed by and approached by Jin.

The Arrancar serving Jin have great diversity in regards to why they follow him-- some follow out of admiration for his power, others follow because they see sadistic entertainment to be had through Jin's goals, and some follow out of sheer curiosity, but even those who have grown somewhat disillusioned with him stay in line out of fear.

Former Shinigami

A pair of former Shinigami have found their way into Jin's service as well. The first of these two (Maki Ichinose, former seated member of Division 11) has served by Jin's side for almost a century now, and has marked themselves as one of his fiercest supporters. The other (Makoto Kibune, former Third Seat of Division 3) is a more recent arrival who followed their former Captain to the World of the Living after their, disagreement, with Central 46-- after parting ways from their former Captain, however, they would eventually land on Jin's radar, and after receiving an offer from him, they took up service in his collective as well.

Whereas Maki Ichinose mostly follows Jin out of respect, admiration, and gratefulness, Kibune's loyalties aren't as firm, though they both share a strong desire for revenge-- or justice depending on which one you ask-- that Jin has promised to help them satiate.

Allies

Hueco Mundo Troupe

A small group with similar goal's to Jin's, contact with them was first made when one of their members reached out to Jin with a scheme surrounding The King's Seal, or Ōin. Ever since acquiring the powerful and mysterious object, this group has dwelt alongside and worked closely with Jin and his subordinates, though to say there is any foundation of trust between the two factions would be a stretch.

The Dark Ones

A clan of Souls that were exiled from the Soul Society thousands of years ago, they were originally banished to the Valley's of Screams, but have recently managed to free themselves somehow. This group would approach Jin's sometime after the conclusion of the Blood War, and due to their similar goals, would decide to work alongside them.

Their alliance, however, like with the Hueco Mundo Troupe, is one of convenience and shared hatred, and should their mutual enemies ever fall, there's no telling what may transpire between The Dark Ones, and Jin's collective.

Associates (?)

Miscellaneous Souls

Souls who are not working with Jin per se, but are, for better or for worse, inexplicably tied to him and his machinations through the people they themselves associate with.

—"And here, I thought you'd left us behind."

A familiar voice sounds off behind Hope. In a moment, he's at her side, with a comforting hand on her shoulder. Though he looks a slightly older than when she last saw him, that smile on his face hasn't changed. If anything, he looks more full of life than before.

"Just out there building a life for yourself, eh?"

There's a lot of that going around. The Shepherds are still around, and Hope can visit any of them, but with Grima finally buried, some of them moved forward doing the same. Hell, Chrom had a head-start... Hope should visit baby Lucina. She can walk now, did you know? It's almost scary, and... he pauses to shake his head. Don't go getting lost in your thoughts, pretty boy.

Instead, he gives Hope a firm pat on the shoulder.

"You always were the traveling type. It's good to see you back safe." He hesitates to call it home for a moment. "You're always welcome in Ylisse, Hope. I imagine you'll have quite the story whenever you do."

It's always nice, having the Shepherds back together again like this. For the occasion, he wonders if he should call everyone together for a feast...

Open Starters

Hands come crashing onto the table, utensils clanging against a half empty plate of food as he simultaneously stands, the chair behind him screeching across the floor.

"Don't tell me to calm down!" he growls loudly, frustration bleeding from his core. "My mother was murdered! And NO ONE seems to give a shit!"

After all she had done, the people she helped and saved, the years she dedicated to her job - all for no one to even bat an eye at her death. The police department that she gave everything to throwing her memory aside like garbage and practically forgetting that she even existed.

[crimsononiarataki-archive]

The Divine Priestess listened intently to everything Gorou said, and she responded to every question he posed to her. While she had no idea who had caused the General to begin feeling things that didn't pertain to the war they'd been locked in for some time, at least it hadn't happened in the midst of it. She gave him her word, that she would support whatever he chose to do. As he asked if he needed to have relations with whoever made him feel the way he did, her response was a very short and soft laugh.

"Whatever you choose, General, you know I will be here to support you,"

She understood what he meant as well. Of course, given what he and the rest of the army had been focused on, she wasn't surprised he'd not known about what she explained to him. Not everyone did.

"I do not find you foolish, Gorou. While you did not know what was happening, you came to me instinctively, because you had a feeling I would know what it was that was bothering you, and I did."

---

After hunting, fishing, and even doing some foraging, the Oni would return to the new temporary living space for the Gang. He and Shinobu would sit and begin making a fairly nutrient dense dish for the five of them to share. The beverage they opted for was a tea they had plenty of. When in moments together like this, the Gang likely looked like a real family.

"I'm takin' night watch again. Ya know me, I prefer it,"

He spoke, not worried about the others objecting. He knew Shinobu was fine during the day, and he never slept long when he did sleep, so in the end it worked out for the group. The boys, being Visionless, were often sent foraging when they woke. Or they were assigned various small tasks that were well within their abilities.

As the sun set, the Yokai would look toward the water and watch the various colors it turned. Watching the oranges and reds as they 'moved' upon the deep blue was nice. Luckily, the area he'd found for them would be safe for some time. While none of them had a proper bed, cot, or bedroll, they were still happy since they were together, and the Oni was happy to be around them just as much.

After the Gang, including Shinobu fell asleep, he found his thoughts wandering to what it was he could have done to offend the General. He'd just lean back and cross his arms over his chest, trying to think about anything other than seeing how Gorou had reacted to being in his general vicinity.

★ ━━━━━━ As they had their conversation, Gorou was made aware of things that he never knew about, but it was now information that he held close, it was important that he knew how it all worked, and where he laid in the scheme of things.

"I should go apologize." His ears flickered as he had a slight pained expression on his face, he was a little afraid.

"So this means that I have to... erm... have relations with whoever made me this way?" He felt a little weird saying it out loud, but he needed to come to terms with it all.

"This might be harder than the war..."

Finishing his tea and share of the snacks, the General stood, but hesitated to move right away. "Priestess... I feel foolish for not knowing all of this, I appreciate your generosity."

[countarganan]

@fodlansbestmom plotted with me! 

“So...” Lucius glanced between everyone, Sothis included - after all, it was her suggestion that they all head to a farm for their date.

“What do we do first? Pet some animals?” 

What does one even do on a farm for a date, anyway? 

[systemadministratorclu]

► Accept a hug from Trick, because you're amazing (one each for Tesler, Hal, and Clu)

► Clip Sonic upside the head for his most recent idiotic stunt (for Soneca, bonus points for lecturing him about said idiotic stunt)

~@evecolourshock

Clu, Tes, and Hal all couldn't help but smile as the beta hugged each of them. Especially Tesler. He wasn't used to the whole thing, but the more he got it the more he liked it and wanted more of it, especially from the beta he'd come to think of as his own and who seemed to have chosen him. He was the first to hug Trick back, and he went for seconds after everyone else.

-------------

Soneca stared down her counterpart where she had him parked on the sofa. Sonic had just finished explaining his latest stunt: a reenactment of some action movie car chase scene involving Sonic darting between two cars no one wanted to know how he obtained and driving them both. Finally, Soneca stepped forward and gave him a swat upside his face (she made sure her claws weren't out, as she didn't actually want to hurt her little brother)

"You flaming IDIOT!! Have you lost your freaking MIND!? Do you have ANY IDEA how lucky you are that neither you nor anyone else is dead!? Do you!? HEY!! Sonic Wachowski, don't you DARE roll your eyes at me!" She growled, her quills standing up a bit, their ends sparking and glowing blue. Even Knuckles shied back from her.

Sonic looked down at his feet, his ears drooped. She was right, and he knew it. He was being reckless again.

"I'm sorry." He mumbled sadly. "I just.....wanted to......" He wasn't even sure anymore what it was he'd wanted to do anymore. But he'd almost hurt people or himself. His eyes stung at that thought.

Seeing his state, Soneca shooed the others out and sat down beside him.

"Hey, look at me." She said softly. He did and she put an arm around him.

"I know you wouldn't try to hurt anyone, and I know it's hard for you having to just stay in town all the time. I feel the same way. But we have to do it. It's the only way to stay safe for us." She pulled Sonic closer and hugged him.

"I love you, little hoglet. We all do. We all know you try to deal with things the best you can. We just don't want to see you get hurt is all......Tell you what. I'll talk to Dad and Wade, see if we can find some safe places for us to run. Or see if you can help train new officers in defensive driving. Based on today, I think you'd like that." Sonic's ears pricked up at that.

"Really? That....Yeah. I'd like that a lot. Thank you." Now his little smile was back.

"No problem. And between you and me......" She leaned in and whispered, ".....that was some awesome drifting you did. Just like the movies, but better." Sonic smiled bigger and hugged her now.

"Thanks, Soneca."

"Anytime." She smiled.
