Welcome to Recollé's AU Workshop! On this post players new and old are encouraged to help one another make connections for their AU lives and to ask for or offer ideas if they so choose. Please respond to the post with the below form, and/or feel free to comment to anyone else to work things out!

• Reserves open on January 17th at 9pm EST! Please note; due to player polls, players may now apply for characters without a reservation. Applications open on January 25th at 12am EST.
• 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!
As a note, we will update the application page with a space for current players to link their full AC for our review should a player wish to apply without a reserve.

• Most importantly, as a friendly note: Recollé will be going into its endgame this year. Estimated endgame is no earlier than July/August of 2019.

floret: (but i don't have to go there)

When you say "this past semester" do you mean fall 2018 or spring 2019 because if the former then maybe Jamie was in his class!!!
...or idk maybe he visited the Tea Kittle where Jamie was a barista!! (or maybe Starbucks back when Jamie worked there instead!! not the one ON campus, but the one BY campus!)

Anyway Jamie is a 21yo premed sociology major who lost his physical form partway through the fall semester and just barely managed to pass all his classes thanks to most of them not taking attendance (and his pulling some Invisible Man tier shenanigans with the one that did) but is now officially Withdrawn, and also broke, jobless, stressed, etc., so who wouldn't want to make friends with that

I was thinking fall 2018, yes! I am here for Jamie having been in his class at the time, yes.

...Also is Jamie one that can be seen by those with high levels of resonance, asking for a friend.
floret: (should i feel like one of them?)

[personal profile] floret 2019-01-17 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
Yep! Anyone who's on Retrospec can see and hear him at least somewhat due to the resonance world change thing, but he'd probably be kind of transparent and not quite there... but if they can generally see spirits and stuff, then he'll be completely visible/audible/opaque/etc!

Also there was a Thing in November where a bunch of dead people came back and were semi visible to everyone, even people not on the app, and they gradually became more and more real/alive seeming throughout the month before they all moved on, and that happened to Jamie as well—ordinary people started to see him again, and things went more and more back to normal until December hit and he was 100% invisible again. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Haha, yes, I remember the event - I ask because Artorius/Arthur actually does have the high amount of resonance that allows him to see spirits and the like. So once that's regained, it's no worries on the invisibility front. I've just never played anyone with an acceptable amount of...that here before, so this is new to me in terms of figuring stuff out. It's appreciated!
