SO! As most of your guys are probably aware, there were concerns brought up about the 'I Will Twist the Knife' event, mostly in regards to how uncomfortable it made some players closely affected by the recent violent tragedy in the USA. We're sorry we weren't able to account for this before posting the event, but the mods in question were totally unaware of this having happened due to not being from the US and also to not being up to date on their news, and so we only realized it was a problem until things were already in full swing.

But, since some people are understandably not feeling dealing with this sort of content at the moment, there is going to be a small side event that will enable a small batch of characters from both Pride and Virgo to avoid attending the party all together. Details aren't going to get dropped until the post does (since this isn't supposed to be a replacement, just a fun little side quest for people feeling really uncomfortable) but there will be no commonly triggering or violent material at play unless the characters themselves get really punchy. Read on for some set up info!

☆THE SET UP
The general context for this opt out will be that the selected characters will be of a batch from each label that were heading out for the party a bit later then the rest. It can be for whatever reason you want - they were busy doing a photoshoot, or they slept in, or they were taking forever to put their face on, etc. Whatever the reason, instead of heading over to the party with their bands, all of the stragglers are going to get thrown together into one flight shuttle and hurried over together.

There will be one shuttle for Pride and one shuttle for Virgo. Both are being driven by an NPC, and both are intended to make it to the party promptly - however, due to an unforeseen distraction, they are going to end up getting waylaid together for most of the night instead.

A pair of plot relevant NPCs will be active in the log, and available to talk to and to drop some special plot related deets. Besides that, there will be stuff available for the musicians to entertain themselves until the night is over. It will be a fairly simple log over all, but it will hopefully provide a relatively chill alternative to the main event for opt outs, as well as an opportunity to interact with some plot stuff while they're at it. By the time they head home, the worst of the drama should be over.

This log will count as one of the two possible 5 MP event rewards. So if you tag in it enough you can cash it in just like normal! If you want to opt out please sign up below, and feel free to ask any remaining questions.

Fire away!

If I'm reading this correctly, "snakes on a ~~plane~~ bus" = everyone regardless of label will end up at a location together unable to leave, details pending?

Yes! It's sort of inconvenient.

Let us know here if you'd like your character to be stolen away and unable to attend the party. This method of distraction means that the characters won't be held responsible for missing what was otherwise a mandatory label event.

Please snag one (1) hipster ninja

Here, have a magician!

parker will be waylaid and not be present for any assassinations.

Thank you for the alternative. Please sign Keith up!

The fun don't start 'til the tiny god takes part.

I'll bite into this

I see you are sorely lacking in not!pop idols. Good thing Kanami's here to save the day!

Here have an angry burd. He's a bah humbug about the holidays and is very unwilling to leave his blanket nest for this nonsense.

Whisk her off into the night, please.

Sora probably got distracted helping a stranger and forgot the time.

He's going to be throwing a fit at his manager because he wants to visit his parent's graves and he's not being allowed to go. The fit will be epic, and there will be tears.

Yep, steal this one too please.
