CHECK-IN
While Amani doesn't have an Activity Check proper, it'd still be nice to know how everyone is doing!

The purpose of this post is to:
★ Give a small summary of what your character has been up to. Please try to do 2-3 sentences so the moderator has information to work with for events or ideas they have may for individualizing things!
★ General plans/ideas you have
★ See what characters are present and welcome new people coming into the game!

★ MOD NOTE: If you claim a character this month, you do not have to check-in until next month!

TEMPLATE

★ If you JOINED LATER IN THE PREVIOUS MONTH and don't have a lot to summarize right away, that's totally fine! You can wait until closer to the end of the month to give a summary after the month's event has happened.

MOD NOTES
Just a few things from Chai to point out for the upcoming month! They are the usual general reminders to go over!

★ A reminder that players can add their own tags to the network and log communities! So, have at it! Tag all the things!

★ The flora & fauna submission mechanic is available! While originally new creatures/plants needed to have a sexy stamp for approval, you now just need to link your character claim (or check-in) comment if you want to start adding to it. Give me more horrifying beasties, please.

★ The calendar for January has been updated!

★ Due to the amount of drops, sweeps, etc. we have lowered the player cap back to 40. There are currently a few slots available though! Invite your friends to come on down to the sinulation for a good time!

[twinoflight]

Player Name: Amesaya
Character Name: Lumine
Canon: Genshin Impact
Character Journal: twinoflight
Summary: Lumine has been spending quite a bit of time trying to test the limits of the simulation, combing the edges of the 50feet barrier for some point where it might glitch or have a gap and let her go further. Because she does not believe the AI. She did take a break from this so that she could slip into the party, test to see if her wristband did anything funky, and steal away cake slices to use as bait to make more friends. Her DTF also seems to have settled into the form of Paimon when it's not in its accessory form. This is a revelation that Lumine is not ready to fully appreciate or understand. She's starting to try to use the network a bit more, if only to try to gather more information in a more expedient and entertaining manner - glitch hunting can get a bit monotonous. she is also probably still fussing over Kaeya. It is Kaeya, after all, there's always something to fuss about with him.

[ahew_kha]

Player Name: Star
Character Name: Kisara
Canon: Yu-Gi-Oh
Character Journal: ahew_kha
Summary: She's been spending most of her time this month working on her treehouse in the forest with Anankos along with trying to take care of/ignore/try not to die via her ridiculous dragon heat cycle shenanigans. Outside of that has been making a few new friends here and there.

[big_iron]

Player Name: Star
Character Name: Hol Horse
Canon: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure
Character Journal: big_iron
Summary: This month has mostly been Hol getting used to Amani to a point of where he's starting to come around on "oh, I don't have to guard myself because someone's going to turn around and murder me". Which has mostly consisted of finding out he has new kinks when it's not being used condescendingly around him. And that he can have relationships outside of "we fucked once". He's also looking for temporary hidey hole places so he can move around more often, paranoia mercenary life.

[strings_theory]

Player Name: Star
Character Name: Jolyne Cujoh
Canon: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure
Character Journal: strings_theory
Summary: How many fights can one person get into on their very first week here? The answer is a few. Though Jolyne has also managed to commandeer a house near the beach as her own since it feels familiar (Florida woman life) and is starting to make it into her own. Also just casually making new friends and fuck buddies while being an utter and complete gremlin. She just would like to not have to worry about basic bitch human needs, come on, simulation.

[ductus]

Player Name: Cuyler
Character Name: Lazard Deusericus
Canon: FFVII: CC
Character Journal:ductus
Summary: Oh *boy* have things been a mess this month for the CC boys. Sanger has officially moved into the villa full time and none too soon. The influx of new people involved a lot of people from their world. Which really sort of messed Sephiroth up because so many of them have trauma related to him. In addition to trying to be a grounding presence for his love he's also had to deal with his brother showing up and for some godawful reason Rufus didn't leave. Why this. (Okay maybe he's also a little upset that he's learned a couple things that imply maybe they didn't need to be so at odds when he was alive but Father intentionally made sure they had no time to bond and therefore would never trust one another.)Also so many shiny new remake icons~

Character Name: Nyx Ulric
Canon: FFXV
Character Journal: hardbargain
Summary: His Prince and His Princess? Glorious. Getting to be schmoopy at Lunafreya and knowing that, whatever else is going on (Keeper wtf????), she's not lost. Maybe not fully restored enough to be stable in the Simulation (like how could they? she's a fucking oracle. Overseer must be pissed she was there for as long as she was) but they have her data and that means he can potentially bargain for her return when they are all restored to their bodies. The two most important people from his world are stored safely in the databanks. That's enough.

Character Name: Seifer Almasy
Canon: FFVIII
Character Journal: fitchy_honor
Summary: He didn't have to deal with any new people, thank fuck, but he has been trying to be supportive of Squall while all this has been going on. There's a lot of drama happening with the people adjacent to him so the best he can do is just... keep Squall and Zell grounded and shit.

[firsteditionbfs]

Player Name: James
Character Name: Angeal Hewley
Canon: FFVII Crisis Core
Character Journal: firsteditionbfs
Summary: Guess who got himself a new boyfriend! Angeal is very pleased about this, and has made sure to make out with him plenty. Amongst other things. He also helped with a holiday part while wearing a very short sexy dress, so that's nice.

[any_orders]

Player Name: Siv

Character Name: Sänger Yasuhide
Canon: OC
Character Journal: any_orders
Summary: Sänger's been getting comfortable in the villa with the majority of the FF7 cast, after being invited to live with them. He actually feels like he has something of a home now... ;w; The latest event has him meeting Rufus, and some other people who may have opted to stay. Although he hasn't said it outright, he's claimed Hol Horse as one of his people! He also got railed by dragon!Byleth. They really need to meet as their human selves properly one day....

Character Name: Anankos
Canon: Fire Emblem: Fates
Character Journal: hearmycry
Summary: He's mostly been holed up with Kisara helping to make the treehouse! (Unfortunately, this is what happens when I hyperfixate on one character and a video game. RIP my brain to FE Engage. This also serves as my personal notice to consider dropping Anankos if my activity in February doesn't shape up.)

Character Name: Zelgius
Canon: Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
Character Journal: jetblackgeneral
Summary: He's simple-minded and pretty much has only been hanging around the training grounds and fighting people. Same issue as with Anankos. :( Only he's even more slow burn and I haven't found my groove with him yet.

[bargainist]

Player Name: Alba
Character Name: Zero
Canon: Final Fantasy XIV
Character Journal: bargainist
Summary: Boned Byleth a few times, kissed a girl and LIKED IT, reunited with Vrtrashan, and is continuing to try to explore and figure her shit out. She has recently discovered that she's more comfortable in sex if she tops, and has also discovered that, weirdly, she's glad that Vrtra is around and unharmed. Still hasn't figured out that "friend" thing yet.

[beatemupbarmaid]

Player Name: Choco


Character Name: Tifa Lockhart
Canon: Final Fantasy 7 Remake
Character Journal: beatemupbarmaid
Summary: Tifa got to miss a lot of the 4th wall shenanigans mostly. She was focusing on her bar after the great grand opening at Christmas and then came Wedge falling through her roof and She got to see Barret again! She's really happy to know they are alive and safe in some context.

Character Name: Squall Leonhart
Canon: Final Fantasy 8 AND Kingdom Hearts
Character Journal: tripletriadking
Summary: Squall got to meet Rufus and by meeting him he finally learned the full story (?) of the ff7 crew so at least he has some answers on things, he also maybe has a new friend? Foe? Unsure. He might have also gave Angeal the idea to help him bring in 98 more puppies...


Character Name: Dimitri Alexandre Blaiddyd
Canon: Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes
Character Journal: dimitea
Summary: Dimitri celebrated much of this new year with Felix. He did get to see a dragon Byleth which was wild. He heard about Corrin disappearing and now has decided to stay in his home and not leave.


Character Name: Arataki Itto
Canon: Genshin Impact
Character Journal: notthebeeeans
Summary: Itto spent the Lunar New Year (lantern Rite festival) celebrating with friends and with his lovely Sizhui. He got to teach everyone about making shrines for those long gone.

[nimbuster]

Player Name: juli

Character Name: Cloud Strife
Canon: Final Fantasy 7 Remake
Character Journal: nimbuster
Summary: Finally took a chance on wearing a dress of his own volition at the Seventh Heaven holiday party, and it went...pretty well, all things considered. He banged Nyx in the secret AVALANCHE basement hideout, learned that Nyx/Tifa is a thing??, and had two mistletoe-induced memory nightmares with Nyx...shared trauma bros...yay? On the other hand they might be dating now maybe? Hell if Cloud knows who he's dating at any moment in time.

Then 4th wall! He saw some friends from home, like Barret and Wedge! He helped Wedge with some cake-induced shenanigans, much to both of their embarrassment, but it was...nice. He rescued Lunafreya after having seen her in Nyx's memories and gave her a ride back to town. Aaaaand then Rufus Shinra showed up and confirmed that if they actually had been alone when they fought on the roof back in Midgar, they probably would have banged right then >_>. Shit's been weird with Rufus, but Cloud has learned more about the Advent Children timeline, gotten fucked by the president, and probably also fucked the president in turn, and now Rufus is gonna hire Cloud to be his bodyguard.

Character Name: Zidane Tribal
Canon: Final Fantasy 9
Character Journal: dyneamite
Summary: Zidane's mostly been working with Genesis and Kuja to prepare for the grand opening of the theater, hanging out with Sora and Hythlodaeus, pestering (affectionate) Squall, and engaging in stupid pun shenanigans with Angeal on the villa house chat. He also asked for Kuja's help figuring out the light spell he received back during the contests, because he has never cast a spell before in his life and doesn't want to mess it up if it becomes important!

EDIT: I FORGOT, Zidane also ran into Itto again at the holiday party and got pretty angry about Itto trying to assert some kind of claim on Kuja and "protect" him from Zidane. After flagrantly interrupting Zidane's makeout session with his own boyfriend to manhandle Kuja without permission. We'll see how that thread resolves... >_>


Character Name: Felix Fraldarius
Canon: Fire Emblem: Three Houses (Azure Moon)
Character Journal: bestswordmaster
Summary: Felix has mostly just been doing his usual thing - hunting, sparring, banging Sylvain, trying to figure out his relationships with Dimitri and Byleth and...Dimitri, hanging out at Rosie's a lot, and being engaged. He and Sylvain have wedding plans, they just have to find a good time to enact them. Felix also had a mistletoe encounter with Caspar and they awkwardly cuddled on the training grounds and talked about dads. He had another one with his Dimitri and got uncharacteristically clingy about it.

[keybladings]

Player Name: kat
Character Name: sora
Canon: kingdom hearts
Character Journal: keybladings
Summary: sora's still been settling in, mostly! hanging out with zidane, spending time with squall and cloud, going on a date with seifer, meeting kisara and helping with the treehouse, and running into roxas for fourth wall shenanigans! he's also learning how to cook with emet and hyth is gonna be around to help make that less stressful, which will be fun. :')



Character Name: lan sizhui
Canon: the untamed
Character Journal: deferences
Summary: sizhui has been spending a whole lot of time doing things around the simulation! hanging out with ushijima for krimmus stuff, meeting new people at the orgy and seventh heaven holiday party and celebrating lunar new year with itto, rescuing soren from freezing to death and giving him lots of affection (also convincing him to come to the orgy), chatting up samatoki about where he was before amani, flirting with vanyel some more while he's a dragon, playing with erika in the snow in their big woof forms, spending time with kaeya for his birthday...

just a lot of self-indulgent stuff on his end.

[noogies]

Player Name: wolf
Character Name: Iwaizumi Hajime
Canon: Haikyuu!!
Character Journal: noogies
Summary: Hajime has been continuing to enjoy himself with his fiance. They are being gross and disgusting at all hours of the day, even when Tooru annoys him and Hajime has to resort to violence. He's getting back into working out and is going to continue that and maybe see if he can find any gym buddies.

[cheezburger]

Player Name: Daimon
Character Name: G'raha Tia
Canon: Final Fantasy XIV
Character Journal: cheezburger
Summary: G'raha continues his streak of keeping to himself except when he accidentally wanders into sexy situations, like a literal orgy party. He's recently banged a dragon and might bang someone as a dragon eventually, maybe. Other than that, he continues to try to do his own research on the simulation and occasionally hangs out with G'rhyf when they decide to crash at his house.

[grandtrashking]

Player Name: Ren
Character Name: Tooru Oikawa
Canon: Haikyuu
Character Journal: grandtrashking
Summary: BACKTAGS MOSTLY
Oikawa has been enjoying his time engaged to his best friend and working on getting out there more when he's not being railed by his fiance. He's amazed that it's been a year already in this afterlife, but can't complain because the person most important to him is still there by his side

[hythlodaeus]

Player Name: Horse
Character Name: Hythlodaeus
Canon: Final Fantasy XIV
Character Journal: hythlodaeus
Summary: Hythlodaeus has been making friends, getting cozy in the newly built house, and experimenting with the dragon pond!

He's also been learning about fashion from his little friends and will soon explore more boldly.

[thisisforyou]

Player Name: claire
Character Name: aerith
Canon: FF7R
Character Journal: thisisforyou
Summary: I've been wrapping up some old threads so Aerith has spent this month deep in hiding from several of her cast mates that showed up. She did claim a red band during the event! Mostly she has been contemplating some canon events and what it means that there are people from different versions of home here

[spikers]

Player Name: avery
Character Name: ushijima wakatoshi
Canon: haikyuu
Character Journal: spikers
Summary: he's finally realized what his Feelings for someone are and dealing with that and what it means for being in a place like this. outside of that, he's decided he wants to start teaching people volleyball so he'll be attempting to do something about that soon.

[untsundered]

Player Name: Zorn
Character Name: Emet-Selch
Canon: Final Fantasy XIV
Character Journal: untsundered
Summary: January was apparently the month for Emet to fuck dragons cuz it happened 3 times and maybe that says something about him. Besides that, he's secretly worked on a means to get info from the allagan tomestone he got back in december, and has otherwise been trying to keep an eye and ear out for anything that might assist him in figuring out a means of escape from this place.

Less so for him, and more so for others who have a duty to fulfill still! Looking at you, G'rhyf! Otherwise, he's been enjoying his time with Hythlodaeus and maybe making a few begrudging friends during his time here.

[drehnifusbahi]

Player Name: Moony
Character Name: Vanyel Greyjoy/The Last Dragonborn
Canon: The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim
Character Journal: drehnifusbahi
Summary: Van has been keeping busy, from getting his flirt on at the Winter Carnival (and also winning a few blind dates and getting himself briefly cursed), experimenting with the dragon springs, attending the Ancients' Solstice orgy, hosting a New Life Festival Bonfire once he'd recovered a bit from said orgy, and lending a helping hand to the sudden influx of new arrivals for the Peacekeeper's birthday party.

Plans going forward include but aren't limited to: further dragon shenanigans, continuing to fix up his house/furniture the long way, further experiments with Conjuration magic to test out the apparent connection between Amani and the Oblivion plane, and maybe dusting off his rusty music skills!

[rhapscdos]

Player Name: Ace
Character Name: Genesis Rhapsodos
Canon: FFVII: Crisis Core
Character Journal: rhapscdos
Summary: Gen got to have a terrible time of dealing with yet another of his world's alien-inspired, genetically defunct horrors. This time one made from his own DNA! Neat! Thankfully Rosso is less inclined to 'brotherly-love' than others Genesis might have been expecting. But that doesn't mean they didn't start a bar brawl at the birthday bash. Also Sanger has moved into the villa, and Gen is very pleased about slowly collecting all of his mates' and his own important people. Like a dragon hoarding boyfriends.

Character Name: Zack Fair
Canon: FFVII: Crisis Core
Character Journal: actsofservicedog
Summary: Zack had a nice time at Seventh Heaven's grand holiday event, and uhhh might be getting married?? He's not sure if he's still playing gay chicken with Cloud about it. And also has no idea how to get a ring? Or propose?? Or how to plan a wedding. Look they're winging it on feels alone.

Character Name: Sylvain Gautier
Canon: FE3H
Character Journal: sonofagautier
Summary: Sylvain is having a normal one, oddly enough. He's sticking closer and closer to Felix these days, incredibly nervous about the ominous warnings from the decoded messages about the next Dead Ends. He'll also be checking in on Byleth a lot more, worried for the poor guy.

[silver_soldier]

Player Name: Callie

Character Name: Sephiroth
Canon: Final Fantasy VII
Character Journal: silver_soldier
Summary: Sephiroth has definitely been active in January as I'm finally allowed to be alive again after the holidays! Aside from catching up on all his backtags, Sephiroth also met quite a few castmates on the fourth wall! None of them were happy to see him, unsurprisingly. While he can hardly blame them, though, those encounters brought back the serious self-loathing he struggles with, culminating in a significant depressive episode that his partners have been supporting him through. Lots of H/C going on!

Character Name: Zell Dincht
Canon: Final Fantasy VIII
Character Journal: punchrush
Summary: Zell has mostly just been catching up on backtags this month, including his first sexual experience with Seifer! He and Squall are also about to share a very sweet first kiss when I go actually write the next reply in that thread. But in more current events, Angeal's given him a crafting request...a rather meaningful one...

Character Name: Kuja
Canon: Final Fantasy IX
Character Journal: epicynicism
Summary: Kuja wishes this month had been less eventful than it actually was. Not that Emet-Selch offering to fix him so that Garland's hard-set expiration date for Kuja is removed (thanks to Zidane's requesting it) isn't a good thing; but somehow, accidentally, and very much against his will, Kuja kind of found himself...falling for Itto?! This extremely earnest but stupid oni? KUJA DID NOT APPROVE THIS. He's also ended up chatting with Raphael at fourth wall, who is also earnest and less-than-bright, which - considering what happened with Itto - is going to concern the HELL out of him as soon as he catches on. CAN'T CATCH ME, FEELINGS

(frozen comment) Re: CHECK-IN

[dadministrator]

Player Name: Infy
Character Name: Seteth
Canon: Fire Emblem: Three Houses
Character Journal: dadministrator
Summary: Seteth has been doing his best to avoid being out when it's snowy, Just In Case. He did get temporarily mistletoe possessed, but Rosie burned it off of him. He also attended the Peacekeeper's party, and wrote it a story for its birthday! Because their friendship is adorable TBH.

Character Name: Yukiko Amagi
Canon: Persona 4
Character Journal: inn_escapable
Summary: Yukiko participated in the festival games, including getting absolutely CREAMED by snow by Hythlodaeus in the snowball fight. She didn't win anything, but she put up a decent showing! She's been kicking aroun to help any newcomers showing up due to the glitchy fourth wall stuff, and attended the Peacekeeper's birthday party. Happy birthday, Amani!

[ralliesprotests]

Player Name: Gil
Character Name: Rowan Rallies-Protests
Canon: OC/WoD
Character Journal: ralliesprotests
Summary: I'm going to be honest, every time I've even thought about tagging this month a disaster has happened. I should have put a hiatus in when we had a family death but I didn't get round to it. So if I need to be swept I 100% understand. If you do let me stick around, I'm literally going to be stuck in a room with nothing to do except for tag starting sometime next weekish, and then after that the kids are going to be in daycare so if I don't manage to tag next month I'll definitely drop and stop hogging space <3

[silentsavant]

Player Name: Angela
Character Name: Soren
Canon: Fire Emblem 9/10 + Aefenglom CRAU
Character Journal: silentsavant
Summary: Still catching up with December stuff. He finally got into the ancient orgy he is only joining for the sake of his friend close acquaintance LMAO and is privy to Emet-Selch's Big Woes. I haven't really participated in the 4th wall event since they don't usually draw my interest much, and I'm still a month or two behind catching up on the progress of old threads so I can look forward a little better. It's unfortunate, but he lost someone he was rapidly gaining more rapport with, Corrin. This won't impact him dramatically, but he'll still be a bit disheartened that he's no longer there. But everything will be okay if he has Ike.
