Activity Check In

[thetonmods]

Check In

This is the permanent AC/check-in page for the game.

Upon acceptance into the game you will need to leave a comment with your character's name and canon in the subject field.

AC for The Ton is a little different than what you might normally expect. While we want to make this game casual and not go all out with a full blown activity check, in order to keep things a little more engaged and fun, once a month characters must submit an in-character journal entry. There is no lower or upper limit as to the length of this journal entry, it simply needs to cover the character's thoughts and feelings about what has taken place for them over the course of the month. Feel free to make them as flavorful as you'd like! These entries may also serve as information for Lady Pheme's scandal sheet - unless you have specified that a certain topic is off-limits in her opt-out page.

This must be done over the last seven days of the month with the deadline being 12.01 EST on the very last day of that month. Failure to do so will result in your character being swept from the game. You must check-in with your individual characters.

If you miss check-in due to extenuating circumstances then please use the mod contact page to let us know.

Estimada Sra. Pheme,

When I said in my last letter that I looked forward to seeing what else you had in store for us, I was not expecting that my murderer would be included in that.

Now, while I will be first to admit that I was not particularly surprised by the abrupt end to my life, or to admit that I didn't live the most risk-averse life, it would be an understatement to say that I was surprised to learn that the man who tried to murder my friend was also brought into Your Grace's beautiful city.

Far be it from me to question the judgment of a goddess, but I do sincerely hope that you know what you're doing. And if anything should happen to Leon, or to anyone else here, because of that man, he will not be the only one responsible.

Sincerely,
Luis

Lady Pheme,

You gods are an unpredictable lot, aren't you?

While I can hardly claim that recent distractions weren't thoroughly enjoyable (for the most part), I also can't pretend that I am any more inclined to trust you or any of our divine visitors. Allow me to reiterate: I do not appreciate being treated as a plaything.

Work on the Whetstone is proceeding apace, and soon I will be offering training to anyone and everyone who wants it. I would say that I hope you do not have a problem with that, but frankly I don't care.

Lord Shaxx

P.S. Mara Sov! However did you manage that one?

Dear Pheme,

You've done it now. I hope you're happy.

I dunno I guess I hear it wasn't you but I can't really write whoever it was so you get to take it instead.

I don't get involved with my friends. She's already got someone for gods' sake! Now what the hell am I supposed to do? Pretend nothing happened I guess and if I'm lucky she'll do the same. Just kinda wish I'd been more drunk cause I remember more of it than I want to. I don't want to know what her

never mind

I bet you're really happy. Are we entertaining you yet?

Dear Pheme,

Is life getting turned upside down by some new god going to be a regular occurrence here? Wine and drunks everywhere was bad enough but kindly tell Dionysus to mind his own business. My fears are not for his entertainment!

Also why in demon's storm is thumos the only answer for everything here? For some of us getting close to people doesn't come easily!

To Lady Pheme,

I know not what I have done to be shunned in such a manner by you. Perhaps because I do not recognize you as a deity I or any of my people would ever worship? Nevertheless, you brought Emet-Selch to me and then took him away again. Now I see that the Chief of the Bureau of the Architect as well as our own Lahabrea have made appearances. Even putting that shock aside, this is a Lahabrea who ceased to exist very, very long ago. It almost seems cruel that you would do this, yet perhaps it is fitting. If anyone should bear the weight of what the future brings, it should be me.

I wonder if you will spirit these two away quickly as well. Am I getting too relaxed, too attached? I do not deserve a "happy vacation" and have perhaps been indulging too much.

I wish you would answer. But you cannot answer in a way that comforts any of my worries, so that is a rather silly thing to say. I ....

Perhaps I just long for someone I can speak to of these things, for I have no one. They simply would not understand, and I've no desire to hurt them.

Thoughtfully,
Elidibus, Emissary of the Convocation of Fourteen

Dear Pheme

It would have been nice to not have a friend of yours fucking with my head and sending me out to frolic like I'm one of the Fey. But despite that it did turn out to be an enjoyable time. I don't think that I'll be able to drink wine for a bit, however.

Dear Pheme

Thanks to a compatriot of yours I spent the first part of the month gallivanting in the forest along with nearly everyone else. Not that I didn't enjoy myself a LOT. Would have rather chosen to do it myself, though.

Dearest Lady Pheme,

I would like to report that your 'visitor' has made me discover that too much of a good thing is actually very bad. Just the whiff of wine is enough to turn my stomach sour. I did meet and converse with people I had become acquainted with during our days at the school.

Lady Nadenka? Oh, I have her name wrong I'm sure. She is quickly becoming a friend that I can trust.

In the coming days I will be properly opening the Swallow's Sanctum. Please do not wag your tongue too much as I will try my best to keep it perfectly respectable.

My heart is heavy at the departure of Prince Loki. I know it was silly of me to start to think of someone who has such a different lifespan the way I was but it was hard to avoid my feelings when he so publicly offered his support. I cannot speak of my hurt to just anyone. I am not used to sharing or unburdening myself with others. He understood the heartache I had at loosing everything at one point and having to start fresh.

I thought parting from him would not hurt. Yet? I grieve. I will not do so publicly for he was not truly mine past the friendship we shared. I will just have to distract myself.

I will not ask this lightly but please, say something truly funny in your next paper. I need to laugh sorely.

Cordially Yours,

Inezia Harvadasher-Fletcher

Dear Pheme,

You can imagine my surprise to find myself transported from one interdimensional world run by a higher cosmic being to an entirely separate interdimensional world. Yet strangely enough, this place is a bit more familiar to me than the previous one I was in. Not so much the world or the setting itself, but the society and lifestyle are very similar to the one I grew up in as a child before leaving it behind.

It has been quite a while since I've been home, and there are some days when I do miss being back in the Silken Squall. Being here reminds me some of why I had left in the first place.

Sincerely,
Dorian Storm

Dear Pheme,

As far as kidnappings go I have to give this a solid 8/10. Not that the bar was that high considering but I have to give points for the lack of mad scientists and lack of supervision.

I do have to deduct points for the strange butler whose only talent is indignation about 'proper behavior' which would make my father proud. I would probably give the poor man a heart attack if he knew just how 'improper' my behavior has been in the past.

Fate really does have a strange sense of humor bringing me here with knowledge of a future that it seems may not happen if what Tifa says is true. But we seem to have a sort of truce that makes things easier, all things considered.

All in all, well done on a fairly successful kidnapping so far and if this month is anything to go by I'm sure it will never be a dull moment.

Respectfully,

Rufus Shinra

Dear Pheme,

I feel obligated to keep this correspondence rather brief, as I do not believe that I can put pen to paper and find the words to describe all that I felt when I believe Miss Pendleton to have been abducted by some unknown entity.

Suffice to say, it is a feeling that I wish never to experience again.

Yours truly,

Dear Pheme,

Holy shit.

Holy shit.

I didn't know you and your god buds could be fun. Seriously, I didn't know you had it in you. You know, 'cause you're all stuffy, and boring, and sorta act like a mannequin?

Like, hell if I know who the grape guy is, but bring him back, yeah? I fancied him way more than the dude with the tentacles.

Do all your god friends come with a kink? Sorta begs the question: what's your deity-specific kink?

I'll bet it's feet.

If it's not feet, send me a letter in return. Otherwise, I'm going off the assumption that I'm entirely right and that you totally get wet for toes.

Dear Pheme,

Me and that DILF made up earlier this month. I don't know why that's so important to me, but it's nice to finally have a friend in this place. A dude friend. I've got plenty of chick friends, but they've got nothing on my best friends back home.

Maybe I just miss them, you know? The top three of them, maybe. Dye Beard is neither here nor there. But Eagly? I think about him every day. I know Vig is looking after him. It's not the same, though. I wish he was here.

But, yeah, the blonde DILF? Might be DTF. IDK. MYB? I'll let you know the deets. If he's good, I'll give him your number.

P.S. Thanks for letting up on the dumb chick rules. Now I can see hot chicks with swords. And there's nothing sexier than a chick with a sword besides maybe TWO chicks with a sword.

Dear Lady Pheme,

Everything would have looked so much brighter had your... cousin? Not visited. I was going to work on myself. I owe Miss Erina another apology and probably a lot of tea.

I saw another side of Sir Gin. Even while he was under the influence (as was I) he treated me exactly how I wanted. I think I have to explore that.

Sanji. Well. I can't do anything there. I'm not sure I'll share that with you.


Altair is actually confusing. He tried to find me while I was "lost". Does he have feelings for me? I have no idea. I just know that after I recovered from my "escape" from the party your godly cousin threw my heart was feeling a flutter. Please don't tell him. I don't want him getting as big ego over nothing.

I miss Eponine still. I had the start of feelings for her. Please.

Please have sent her someplace kind. I don't want her hurting. I promise I'll try to be good if she's safe and well.

Consider my words.

Yours faithfully,

Annabelle "Annie" Dyer

Dear Pheme,

I really don't know what to say at this point. It's not the first weird place that I've been dragged. It's not home, and I am not entirely certain I understand all the rules of the place -- there's a lot, you know -- but it's not the worst either. That's something. Probably.

Mostly I've been trying to settle in, get the lay of the land. Sort of started off on a weird note, with the whole magic garden-jungle party. I met a lot of people naked. So that's sure a first impression. The water was nice though, so I don't really regret it. The aphrodisiac pollen thing was a little uncalled for though. I don't regret that part either.

Also, for what it's worth, I'm grateful Dorian is here. I don't know if I'd be coping well if he weren't so... even if it feels weird to say it, thanks for that. Please don't take him away from me.

Sincerely,

Orym

I find myself grateful for the dog. He's a delight, and training him has proven to be a most welcome distraction from everything else going on - the trick parties, the interloping gods, the fear of true loss.

I still see no pattern in how people are able to leave this place. I assume it's because they prove uninteresting to Pheme, though I still can't possibly know the criteria for that. Perhaps I never will. I would like to know what should happen to Bay Star and the mabari if I'm ever sent home. Will someone take care of them? What about Ylva, should Hawke ever be returned to where we both belong?

The danger in building anything like a life here seems to be the potential to abandon it, just as I've abandoned my home.

I don't enjoy feeling so uncertain. Perhaps that is part of what makes me entertaining to her. My pain.

Pheme,

The party in the woods was actually fun. Maybe you should step aside and let Dionysus handle things here from now on. If yours is anything like mine, we'll all have a much better time. Not to mention, if yours is anything like mine and you still managed to lose control to him, you're in no position to be in charge of anyone.

Your own parties need work. Did no one ever tell you less is more?

The food is still very lacking.

I still want my bear.

Lady Pheme,

Fuck you, and the flea-bitten nag you rode in on. I do not appreciate being compelled to do anything, and I know there is nothing else that could have possible made me want to sit down here tonight and unburden myself to you. You're subtle. It's good. Good, but not great, because while I want to write, you can't control what I want to write.

Though I suppose there is one thing here to be genuinely in awe of. Unfortunately for you, it's a man, not one of your illusions, and you have nothing to do with what makes him special. You have nothing to do with anything that's good here. I suspect you know that already. I just want to make sure you know that I know.

Though I do enjoy the way you throw a party. Credit where it's due, the evening was spectacular before you stranded us in your overgrown hedges.

Hiiiiiiii Pheme ❤

Can I just say this letter thing is so so so cute? I've always wanted a pen pal and I bet we are going to be just the BEST of besties! I love parties and fancy dresses too! And the city is like really pretty. And all the people around here? Hot. Good job!!

I've met some people that I hope I can be friends with. I'm not great with names but I'll know them when I see them again. IDK about all this fancy old time manners stuff but I can probably wing it!

The only weird thing is I think I fucked the guy who killed another guy I know from back home? At that crazy forest orgy? But I think Rick wouldn't hold it against me, probably, because he knows how I do. Knew. Ughhh you know when you SHOULD be mad at someone and probably do a revenge murder but the dick is really really good?? What's a gal to do!

Anywayyyyy how are you?
