• Please note: you need a reserve to apply, so please plan accordingly! Reservation dates can also be found on the game calendar and coincide with the TDM.
• For current players who are interested in 2nd or 3rd characters, please review and follow our policy about AC! To reserve a 2nd character you must have a pass for the previous month's AC with your first character. For a 3rd character, you must have a pass for the previous two months' AC for both of your characters. In addition, we do ask that the AC for the current month be met and filled into your AC comment by the time of your reserve. It must be full AC. This means you must have 20 comments between at least 2 and at most 4 threads and one memory regain listed for the current month's AC period. Your reserve will not be accepted until you supply the requested AC!

IF HE IS JAPANESE do you want a cute cousin?

I WOULD LOVE A CUTE COUSIN...

Sakichi's Japanese yes!! I was operating on American-born, but we can say he frequently visited Makoto and family in Japan throughout his teen years if that works?!

I have no idea what Sakichi's parent situation would be right now but maybe at the end of all this I'll bum Makoto's last name off her

LIKE HONESTLY, I CAN MODIFY HER AU A BIT if you want a sibling! I wrote Sae in, but she could easily be swapped, we'd just need to figure out like-- maybe her mom was American, and they divorced, so he lived most of his time with her? While Makoto grew up in Japan?

Oh no... DAMMIT reunited siblings... I didn't know I wanted this. :'( I'm totally down for this plan!! And I'm super flexible still so if any tweaking is needed just let me know!

I'm actually 99% canonblind to p5 btw... I GOTTA GET ON PLAYING THAT

I THINK THAT SHOULD WORK JUST FINE. like in canon, Makoto's mom is gone anyway! SO THIS JUST... GETS CLOSER TO CANON SORT OF.

And it's okay, I'm totally canonblind to Rengoku ni Warau! BUT I WANT THIS A LOT... WE CAN HAVE A TOUCHING THREAD, where she finally reaches out to him to tell him she's in the city?!

SURE THING!!! Ugh I'm stoked

He probably would've written to her while he was deployed since he currently only has one (1) friend and zero (0) hobbies so like what else did he have to do during downtime lmao

OMG PLEASE...

Just tell me they were great letters about his life!! So she could have been quietly cheering from Japan.

Whoops I didn't see this

Sakichi is kind of dry and factual... He would've written about innocent things like new food, flora, and fauna he'd seen, and stuff like "I could do one more push-up today." LMAO... His writing would be super straightforward and lack any kind of flowery language. He'd note vaguely if he got into any combat situations because he's too honest, but in a matter-of-fact, totally unexciting kind of way...

Sakichi is a stable sort of dude and doesn't complain too much even when he suffers... A big chunk of his letters were probably more focused on Makoto, the new stuff in her life, and the dispensing of brotherly advice haha

I'M BACK AGAIN!! ara is asking if sakichi and therefore makoto would like a cousin in chiyo (from gekkan shoujo nozaki-kun) on chiyo's mother side! would that work for you?
justfists: weeknd @ dw (Default)

[personal profile] justfists 2018-01-11 06:47 am (UTC)(link)
I AM A-OK WITH THAT

ANOTHER THING

Do you mind if we say that their mom remarried and moved out of Recolle while Sakichi was doing his service? I mostly just wanted to find a way to force him into a roommate situation haha

ANOTHER ANOTHER THING

I was gonna say that it's their mom who is related to Chiyo's mom... I hope that checks out if you're keeping track of the family tree lmao
