AU plotting post

au plotting post


Welcome to the Duocaeli's Plotting Post for OFFline world AUs! Rather than doing monthly installments to play with this optional mechanic, we've decided to use this permanently installed post for players to come in and engage with our AU mechanic as they please.

How does the AU mechanic work?
Upon arriving in the OFF world of Crane City, characters will find themselves encountering NPC residents and others who react to them as familiar citizens, friends, and family. While not necessary, there is an optional mechanic for characters to also suddenly regain memories of a life they had in Crane City, whether it be an entire lifetime or as someone who moved in and took up residence later on. However, all characters will intrinsically know that the Alternative Universe memories they have of the OFF world aren't their real memories.

In addition, while characters may have OFFline friends or family resemble canon characters that can be apped, they must also retain some differences. This is to allow for creative freedom for characters being apped in.

OOCly, Duocaeli puts a focus on canon personalities and histories of characters, but we wanted to have the optional AU mechanic for those who wanted to play with it! If you don't want to opt in, there is no requirement to have a top-level or entry in this page. If you would like to engage, please follow our example for organization's sake.

This AU Plotting Post will be linked on every monthly mod post as a reminder for those who would like to engage in the optional AU mechanic.

Player Name:
Player Contact:

Character Name: Feel free to also link to their permissions/info post if that's your jam!
Canon:
AU Occupation: Quick snapshot of what your character does.
AU Background: This can be as detailed or barebones as you want!
Looking For: Are there any particular kinds of AU CR that you'd like for your character? Childhood friends? Bitter academic rivals? It may also help to include your character's attitude on the AU memories - do they find them confusing and want to embrace them? Or will they ignore them to the best of their ability?

While not necessary, mods also encourage having a FROZEN "Notes" comment reply to your own top-level that lets you edit and include new AU details as you plot!



Otherwise, the entire post works like a general plotting area! Please comment under character comments to build AUs with each other. Don't be shy now!

Player Name: aki!
Player Contact: pm or [plurk.com profile] ikedaya hell yea

Character Name: Matsui Gou
Canon: Touken Ranbu
AU Occupation: Phlebologist or something else highly medical and blood-specific because i think that's hilarious personally
AU Background: i genuinely have not thought about this at all girl help.
• HE'S CATHOLIC?? like sunday catholic. not catholic enough for it to matter in any real way but he wears a rosary about it
• went to medical school! he has a fascination with blood for probably tragic reasons that he doesn't talk about but it's fine because they're normal person levels of tragic and not sword levels
• is also from out of town but it's fine because he will truly just vibe anywhere
• home situation is a mystery, does even he know, wild, what's happening out here

Looking For: the usual not at all helpful I WILL TAKE ANYONE AND ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING because listen.. i will...... but!! more specifically:
• family?! i have literally nothing planned for him so far so if anyone wants a brother/uncle/cousin/whatever, i throw u this fucker
• fellow medschool students! who was with him while studying for 29 straight hours for an exam, living solely off of trix and coffee grounds... they've been through the trenches
• colleagues! who is out here with him cursing anyone who says the word quiet while in the waiting room
• fwiends... air him out over the weekends or he'll never leave his study and start growing mushrooms
• Enemies In Love i guess if ur character dated buzen help
• idk sunday church friends???? HELP

re: how he'd treat his au memories, he is very much like buzen and also doesn't believe that they're real! but since he's more self-aware and also running faster in this one single matter he's actively avoiding treating people any differently to the degree that he's capable of...help

Would being friends with Buzen starting from their college years have put Roland within proximity of Matsui . . . My greedy hands reach out to you.
sanguinary: (placid)

[personal profile] sanguinary 2023-02-22 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
GRIPS UR PAWS OUR CR!!!!! also yeah absolutely. being anywhere near buzen for any amount of time would put people in proximity of matsui.....

[personal profile] duskspear 2023-02-23 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
Something about that sounds ominous.

But okay, then Roland would have desired to befriend this man. Sword. Sword man. Very cheerfully.

what if patient/hospital fwiend...

idk how big the age diff would be but i do like the idea of aspen and matsui being friends bc matsui is at the hospital for ??? something and aspen was injured + has blood problem ;w; and since matsui has his blood interest...
sanguinary: (lilith)

[personal profile] sanguinary 2023-02-22 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
OH CUTE i love this...... he's in his (sweatily mumbles something about early/mid 20s because of cheating immortals but also blood studies take so long), so i'd be down for either matsui being on shift and assigned to aspens case or they truly just both end up in the hospital and are hospital roomies for a bit help

looks deep into the abyss

in the end i did not app beatrix because i am but a simple one-blorbo woman, please forgive me for this crime i have committed, but i humbly request cr anyway..........eustace did not go to med school BUT he did go to vet school, maybe they can still bond over studying for 29 straight hours living solely off trix and coffee grounds even if it was on slightly different subjects

anatomy and physiology is still hell no matter what creature it belongs to

[personal profile] sanguinary 2023-02-25 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
THIS IS SO FUNNY BUT ALSO LIKE gestures. i cannot judge u. i love this though they can and should suffer together in the mines of medschool because truly all medschool of any kind for any creature is a nightmare vortex. they can live in sylvain and felix's cafe.. just sleep in the corner
