WHO: Everyone!
WHERE: Libra App
WHEN: June 1st
WHAT: Zodiac Network Post
WARNINGS: None!

[If you look out the window at night, you'll see the Spirit Vein shift from the dark hues into ones of brilliant light. Across the sky, the spirit vein will dance in colors all across the visible spectrum, making it a beautiful cascade of light as the Light Element takes hold.

Meanwhile, around this time everyone will receive a fancy envelope containing a fanciful invitation to the Goblin King's Masquerade. Be sure to take care of this invitation, as otherwise you might start to lose things.

Everyone's devices will emit a soothing wind chime sound as a new Zodiac post appears. The chime will sound even if you have your phone turned off or on silent, and will not stop until you read their message and comment to it.]

Ophelia has left the app.

[The post then continues on.]

Hello and thank you for using the Libra app.

Oh great, because Janet screwed up so bad with mothers day, they want me to cover the pride post. Pretty ironic to ask me to work and not her during Pride month, but I guess I get why corporate wouldn't to chance it.

Anyway, Happy Pride Month. If you don't know what that means, it means unless you're one of the few straight people that are somehow on this app, it's your month to celebrate being part of the LGBTAQ+. If you want to know what those letters mean, ask your fellow app users- I'm trying to get out of here on time since I have a date with my boyfriend.

Zodiac is proud to help sponsor any Pride-related events that are going on throughout the city. Be sure to look for our booths where you can buy Pride themed merchandise. I will say while it's rainbow capitalism, I will at least say my employers do keep caring even after Pride month is done, so there's that.

Anyway, that's it. I'm leaving. Happy Pride. 🌈

This post is sponsored by the Cinderella Hair Salon! Your hair will be the bell of the ball this Pride!

[Users will have the option to choose their own display names and userpics if they haven't already. If nothing is chosen, the app will use their real name and a quick photo taken of them from their camera's phone.

Please note that there will be no city log this month, with the next event log being posted on the 15th. As such, players are free to make their own posts and mingles regarding city events. If you want more details on what's happening the city this month, it can be found here. ]

WHO: Maxima and anyone
WHERE: Network - Gemini
WHEN: May 29th, sometime between midnight and dawn
WHAT: Unpacking decades of living in the closet
WARNINGS: Discussion of homophobia and the perils of growing up in an authoritarian empire

Pride month... I missed it last year, having arrived in July. I'm not sure if that was for the best, or if I'd have understood more things sooner if I'd witnessed it.

When I came here, it was strange to live among people who were so open about something that had been a shameful and ruinous secret for my entire life. I felt...adrift, surrounded by those living in a freedom that I hadn't dared to dream of for so long. Perhaps even a little resentful of the ease that everyone seemed to take for granted.

But reading about the history of this upcoming celebration...it's harder-won than it seems from the day-to-day attitudes of the people here, isn't it? Still fresh enough to revel in the defiance of it.

Are there any others here from places that were less welcoming? Sometimes I feel like the only one.

WHERE: Network - Gemini
WHEN: May 27th
WHAT: IT'S TIME!
WARNINGS: Zulius.

[ It's everyone's favourite zebrataur and as always, he's looking FABULOUS (as if he can look any other way!!). He's in the Vogue, as people bustle around, getting it decorated for Pride- flags of every colour are dotted around, covering every aspect of the LGBTQIA+ rainbow. ]

NO, the pan flag needs to be a little to the left! Your other left!!!

[ He turns to give the camera a dazzling grin. ]

Hello my beautiful darlings!!! Guess what's next month? Is it PRIDE??? [ He waves his hand and a rainbow trails across the air in front of the camera. It's glittery. ] Why, yes it is! Only the BEST month in the whole year! As always the Vogue is going all out - we've got a showing of Juliet & during the evenings and after that? PARTY CENTRAL EVERY NIGHT!

As always we have our drink the rainbow challenge in case you want your picture behind the bar. ALSO as always, I need to remind you if you want to sign up for that you have got to have a designated take-you-home person because we all remember what Venti did.

[ They remember. They will never forget. ]

The last weekend of the month will be FABULOUS SEASON! The annual drag competition run by your truly for the prize of five thousand dollarly-dos! We've got best outfit, lip sync battles, best choreography and, of course Snatch Game! So be SURE you drop by the Vogue to sign up for that ASAP and show everyone just what you're made of!

WHO: The Dead Prophet's Society and you!
WHERE: Libra AND Gemini
WHEN: Late May
WHAT: It's the monthly prophecy post!
WARNINGS: Probably cursing, definitely some sexual discussions

[Everyone's favorite god of twinks—I mean, Freedom waves at the camera with a grin on his face.]

Hey, everyone! Since we've got so many seers, we're trying something new this month to see if it's less strain on one person giving out a lot of prophecies for the coming month. We're each gonna say what we saw in our own words, and that way we're not praying that one of us happens to be free to give the announcement~

So I'll kick off this shindig!

[Venti clears his throat dramatically.]

The winds brought to me a Venetian mask. Literally. It hit me in the back quite rudely while I was on a date with my lovely fiance. I think they're getting jealous, so I need to spend some more time with them. It's either that or a wind demon of some kind hijacked the winds to send me yet another message.

WHO: Viktor + open
WHERE: Gemini
WHEN: Late May
WHAT: Building magitech to cope with the horrors.
WARNINGS: None yet, specified in subject lines if needed.

[Viktor had all but disappeared after the excursion through the latest spirit gate; rarely leaving his house was not strictly unusual for him, but he'd withdrawn almost entirely for days. For him, a neceessity--solitude gave Viktor the ability to fall into the oldest habit of throwing himself into his work as a way to sort out tumultuous thoughts. Of which he had far too many, now.]

[But eventually, there was a distinct sign of life in the form of a video on the network: set up to show an open area behind Viktor's house, with a square foot of sheet metal set up in a way almost resembling a painter's canvas.]

I, eh...have never been particularly skilled with public presentations, but I would like to demonstrate what I have been working on.

[Viktor stepped into frame with a pair of goggles pushed back to his forehead, pulling on an odd fingerless glove of metal and leather. The shoulder not leaning on his crutch now wore a small pauldron, on which was mounted a thin third arm ending in three fingers.] The second iteration of an old invention of mine; the Hexclaw. It is a crafting tool designed for precision and dexterity, not only in its range of movement, but also in its secondary function.

[As he spoke, he slotted a light-elemental crystal into the back of the glove, twisting it slightly as one would adjust a dial. Once he had, the third arm began to respond to his movements, its own clawed hand twisting and moving as if taking careful aim at the sheet of metal--with a sharp motion of Viktor's hand, it fired a thin and bright blue laser, drawing a symbol into the material that burned bright orange as it began to slowly cool off, engraved with pinpoint accuracy.]

...Laser technology is commonplace in this world, I realize- [Twisting the crystal in the opposite direction to disengage it, the Hexclaw retracted slightly as if powering off.] -but a new innovation in mine. It needs some further fine-tuning, though I am optimistic that this is already an improvement over its previous version.

[He laughed a little awkwardly, a quietly huffed sound that ended in a brief cough against the back of his uncovered hand. Clearly unsure of just how to finish such a presentation, Viktor reached over and simply ended the video.]

WHO: Yusuke and you
WHERE: Gemini
WHEN: Late May
WHAT: Yusuke has an announcement
WARNINGS: What you bring with you

[Yusuke never posts on the apps, and posts video even more rarely. But today is important.

Today he is filming and there is a very pretty ring with a diamond style to it on his hand. It is very obvious, especially since he keeps looking at it.]

Good news, the moogles did not manage to find us before Takame proposed.

[What a way to start an announcement, Yusuke.]

I said yes, of course, and we're looking at a fall wedding--not this year, most likely. The ceremony itself may be small, but I think several people here would chase us out of town if we didn't have a big reception. We'll see, of course.

[Another look at his ring and he chuckles.]

I'm getting married.

WHO: Amal and you
WHERE: Gemini
WHEN: Nebulously mid May
WHAT: Amal got a present.
WARNINGS: FFXIV Heavensward spoilers. Will add more if needed.

[text;]

[Normally he likes video posts, but this one hits so close to home he's not sure he can stand it. So instead he posts a picture of a shield with a unicorn emblem. The shield is broken, victim of a spear of light piercing it through. Evocative. He has arranged a little shrine, temporarily, in one of the empty rooms of the house: the shield is cradled by white flowers to signify grief, as well as a little porcelain unicorn figurine.]

hey
any objections if i make a place for this on cathedral hill?
it belonged to someone i loved very much and i know im not the only one
without this person I would not be here today

haurchefant would've loved kaisou
he was a huge romantic and a true knight in shining silver armor
... wish i was half the hero he was.

anyway.......
it doesn't feel right to keep his shield in my house when i know he touched so many lives back in etheirys
im not sure ill ever go back so it feels fitting for him to watch over us here

WHO: Varian and you!
WHERE: Gemini app!
WHEN: Late May
WHAT: Getting weird stuff from the Goodwill
WARNINGS: None!

[It's rare Varian makes a post on the network to the app at large, but something has come up and he figures it's a good idea to... check. When the video pops on, his hairstripe is a worem which keeps wriggling around on his head. He seems to be doing his very best to ignore it.]

Uh. Hey- hey guys. I've got a quick question. I know that we've had some uh... old world stuff cropping up this month. [He does NOT wanna get into that, that had been a pretty damn bad time.] But I was wondering if anyone found items from their old worlds or... past lives or whatever, too?

[ He holds up a big red book with a sun emblem emblazoned across the front.]

This is the journal of King Herz Der Sonne. It's... it's an artefact from the world I come from. It's uh... kind of like a history book but with... secrets of Corona in it. Also people sign their names in it to proclaim their love for one another. That's- that's a whole thing.

A-anyway. It's one of the most guarded things in my world so I'm- uh- really confused that it somehow showed up here? I was wondering if anyone else had something like this show up in that weird store too? Just in case it's some... new epidemic or something.

WHO: Josuke and y'all!
WHERE: Gemini
WHEN: Late May
WHAT: Josuke is selling Pokemon-related pride merch again
WARNINGS: Whatever y'all bring with you. And also so many links incoming I am so sorry

Hey everyone!

Sorry I've gone a little radio silent lately, but moving happened and then I've been working on some stuff for next month. I'm bringing back the Vivillon stickers and keychains--

[He focuses the camera on a few of these--which is to say, stickers and keychains featuring Vivillon with pride flag-inspired designs instead of their typical wing patterns. The ones he's focusing on include the progress flag, the bi flag, and one Vivillon keychain with the gay flag on the top part of the wings and the ace flag on the bottom.]

And yes, there's more than these, obviously. But anyway, I've got some new additions for this year!

[The camera pans to a selection of keychains and stickers featuring pride flag-inspired Alcremie--the colors of the flags making up their bodies, with either sweets in matching colors or in colors of a secondary flag; a number of trans pride stickers that feature shiny Nidorans of both genders, Sylveon, Hatterene, and... Marill, for some reason?

And then there's a selection of stickers with Pokemon in the colors of specific pride flags and... oh god. Puns.

There's "Megaynium", "Lesdian", Gabite (the "bi" is emphasized), Pancham and Pangoro (with the "pan" emphasized the same way the "bi" in Gabite was emphasized), "Arodactyl", Cinderace (with the "ace" emphasized), "Polywhirl" and "Polywrath", and then last but not least, "Enbysaur" and "Non-Buneary".]

That should be everything that's new! If anyone's interested, stickers are five bucks apiece and keychains are fifteen!
