Heavenly Blanc Void Party



🥂 HEAVENLY BLANC VOID PARTY 🥂




Who: Everyone!
What: Heavenly Blanc mingle and info exchange
Where: The Heavenly Blanc Bar and Café
When: "August 1"; but really, what is time
Content Warnings: N/A

Maybe you heard through word of mouth, or got an invite from the barista and barkeep directly, or spotted the handwritten paper invites hung up around the area, but there is a gathering happening at the Heavenly Blanc Bar and Café TODAY! So feel free to stop by, hang out, have some drinks, and share some stories.

🍺 DRINKS: Coffee will be served by Ren, and Tifa will be handling the other drinks. There's a wide variety behind the bar, ranging from alcoholic to the non-alcoholic, with delicious cocktails (yes, including virgin ones for the minors) to pick from. And before you ask - no, if you are underage, you may not have alcohol. Tifa will be very strict about it, and anyone who tries to bypass her imposed law will be subject to room temperature tapwater for the rest of the party.

🎲 GAMES: Various boardgames that came along with Le Blanc will be made available for all to play, including a Shogi board for the strategically inclined (and whoever knows how the heck to play it). Along the side wall are two pinball machines, and while they don't light up and make sounds, the mechanisms inside them still work, so they aren't completely out of the picture! Next to them, between the jukebox and the door is a dart board. Please do be mindful when throwing darts, as the light filtering into the bar through the front windows is very minimal.

🤔 INFORMATION EXCHANGE: The important part! When all are gathered inside the bar, Tifa and Ren will make a small announcement for everyone:

"Now that we've all had the chance to take a look around and get our bearings, I wanna encourage everyone to exchange what you know, or what you've found. Even share it with the rest of us! Locations, ideas, theories - anything that could be useful in helping us all figure this out. We all come from different worlds, but we're stuck here, so we're in this together until we're not, yeah? Let's make friends and play nice, and most importantly, have fun today! Oh, and if you're coming and going, make sure to close the door nice and tight behind you."



"It's nice to see everyone. Since we're stuck here together, let's cooperate well."


☕ OOC NOTES ☕



This is the open mingle post for the Heavenly Blanc void party! Please feel free to top-level and tag around.

There is a top-level included here for you to post OOC notes of what their characters have discussed on the log, as well as their own thoughts about the world. If there is anything important that people should know, please reply to the top-level with the information, so that it's easy to find for everyone. General info posts about what your character will be talking about are fine as well. Just please try to avoid multiple edits if you can as you thread if you are going that route! for the sake of my dw inbox...

Because this is an info exchange/mingle post, we encourage thread-jacking. However, we know that not everyone is into that kind of thing, so if you are okay with others hopping into your threads, please be sure to indicate it in your top-level.

Questions about the log can be directed to the ooc post.

Have fun!

Legion

Legion will mention the simulation theory, though it will mostly be to point out that it seems unlikely/the simulation would have to be more advanced than anything they know of, as even the Reapers, a species commonly seen as unknowable machine gods, are not capable of creating a simulation that can fool other synthetics.

Unless they themselves are part of the simulation, of course.

In fact, they could all be simulations, or AI copies of their original selves. (It's not an idea Legion fully believes, but they'll suggest it anyway as a possibility.)

They have not yet seen anything from their memories manifest in this world.

More importantly, like some others, they also aren't new to this whole alternate reality thing. Because they're pretty sure that that's what this actually is: a whole other universe, not just a planet or a simulation.

Prior to coming here they'd been in a world composed of ocean and islands, presided over by a "god" of stories. That world recently came apart, the last thing they recall is frantically shepherding people and wildlife to an escape portal before going through themselves. As far as they know, the Storyteller had intended to create a new world for everyone to live in, but this does not appear to be that world: none of what they fought so hard to save is here.

They're more than a little distressed by the fact that nothing came with them.
