Please respond to the post with the below form, and/or feel free to comment to anyone else to work things out!

• As per our game-wide poll, we will be holding an application round in October and in November! After that, apps will resume their bi-monthly schedule. The game calendar has now been updated with the dates for this.
• 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.

SO, SO COOL. I'm already dying, this is so cute. At one dim sum place, everyone's dissing Sunny in idk Fukien while they're like ??? WHAT IS GOING ON?

Ohhh my gosh, yes please. All the magic, all the freakouts. Sunny can regain the weapons of all her disciples too so I mean... If she ever accidentally leaves him a magical staff that can change its size at will, there will be more screaming to be had.

GO GET SAKURA, SUNNY'S CHEERING HIM ON.

I'M CRYING THIS IS SO GREAT

just awkwardly eating their steamed bun pigs and trying to nab the dessert cart but NO ONE CAN UNDERSTAND THEM....

but GOD HE'LL PROBABLY SEE SAKURA'S STAFF FIRST and she leaves him with that and he's like I DON'T WANT THIS, THIS MEANS I HAVE TO FIGHT SAKURA IN A DUEL OR SOMETHING (also when he regains his sword he is like............ not letting Sunny get anywhere near it, for BOTH OF THEIR SAFETIES)

ALSO!!!! gonna add this here so I don't spam you with notifs, but I saw that Sunny is a Huge Nerd and like. She should totally just arrange a Family Date Night where she gets Xiaolang to marathon her favorite shonen with her and then grill him about who his favorite character is and why because it'd be SO GREAT

hot mess hot mess I LOVE IT

and oh my god. Oh my god??? Please??? Buckle up, Xiaolang, Fairy Tail is a trip. I THINK SHE WOULD DO THIS CONSTANTLY... did you play the new game. watch the new season. nvm I'm sending you my flash drive. give it back on Monday ok.

also on the off chance she ever has to go to his school to pick him up, she will embarrass him by being the clingiest not!sister in existence. GIVE HER HUGS.

I can't stop staring at the steamed buns wtf

[personal profile] cardcaptured 2017-10-12 11:50 am (UTC)(link)
AREN'T THEY THE CUTEST I want to try them so bad, ugh

But YES. YES GOD, he'll just look at the flash drive all SUNNY I GOT LIKE THREE ESSAYS AND A CLUB PROJECT I HAVE TO FINISH, ARE YOU NUTS, but then will probably watch everything in the dead of night and then return it quietly asking if there's more seasons HAHA (Fairy Tail might not be his jam because the fan service embarrasses him, but HE WOULD BE ALL OVER FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST. EDWARD ELRIC IS THE ACTUAL COOLEST)

also YES SMOTHER THE CHILD!!! DO IT FOR HIS FOUR ACTUAL SISTERS WHO CAN'T BE HERE AT THE MOMENT!!! Since his NPC guardian is out a lot of the day as it is, she can probably do it whenever?? Like just tackle him all ' XIAOLANG I AM HERE TO TAKE YOU HOME' 'I'M THIRTEEN' 'WHAT'S YOUR POINT'

[personal profile] dontstopbelievin 2017-10-13 09:51 am (UTC)(link)
Please... PLEASE. SHE WILL DOTE ON HIM SO HARD. She'd visit him at school like "I'M HERE FOR THE PTA MEETING" and she'd get him a 1/8 scale Edward Elric figure on his birthday...

ALSO I'm modifying her backstory so that she's from Hong Kong. Do you think they would have had any contact at all before Recolle, though? Just curious! I can work with anything since Sunny would be the type to latch onto family, even if unfamiliar.

[personal profile] cardcaptured 2017-10-13 01:23 pm (UTC)(link)
OH NO HE WOULD TOTALLY LOVE IT TOO.... just looking at it perched on his dresser next to his science awards and quietly sparkling over it all EDWARD'S SO COOL.... (and he'd definitely sew a little sock monkey for Sunny for her own birthday and leave it at her dorm and get a call later all 'XIAOLANG I LOVE IT!!' 'I DIDN'T EVEN LEAVE A NOTE ON IT HOW DID YOU KNOW IT WAS ME' 'BECAUSE YOU'RE A NERD'

But I can imagine that they might have, for New Year's gatherings, perhaps? Maybe her family goes one year to his family's house, and visa versa the next year, although Xiaolang probably doesn't socialize much during them because all the people there overwhelm him, haha 8'( Actually, if Sunny isn't already dorming, I'd be totally down for her being his actual guardian here at Recolle? I can see his mom getting the idea of sending Xiaolang off to Recolle once she heard that Sunny's family did it too, and maybe getting in touch with her and/or her family to see if it was okay for him to stay with her? Xiaolang most likely holed himself up in his room at first when he arrived, because he didn't know her all too well and it probably cued a DO YOU WANT TO BUILD A SNOWMAAAAAAN/NO/OKAY BYYYYE 8( thing between them HAHA

(but he can cook and clean and shop and do laundry so like. he's probably the best case scenario for looking after a thirteen year old boy)

PRECIOUS BOY

But HAHA oh my god, I would LOVE that! It fits with Xiaolang's blurb too since Sunny's usually busy with uni/tutoring. But just a heads up, she's probably the less competent between the two of them when it comes to life skills so... LMAO

It's okay. She gives great advice. Let her big sis him all the way.

[personal profile] cardcaptured 2017-10-14 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
PLEASE MENTOR HIM, he may be stupidly over-competent in life skills for a tween, but someone needs to make sure he actually........ relaxes. SOBS

YOU'L DO A GREAT JOB SUNNY, DON'T WORRY

Oh gosh Luna, I am so sorry. The mods said I can't app Sanzang since her canon hasn't been officially translated yet...

I am sad.

[personal profile] cardcaptured 2017-10-18 09:24 am (UTC)(link)
OH NO............

at least there's an app round next month?? hopefully you'll be allowed to app her then! this CR is too cute to not play out, this is way too sad

Unfortunately, she doesn't show up in the English version of the game until next year! :( So it'll be a long while before I can app her to Recolle. Really sorry!
