fourth wall mingle (fourth wall event open through March 16th)

[For the regular denizens of Balamb Garden, it's an ordinary day...until more off-worlders start showing up, for only a few hours at a time. Unsure what to make of these more temporary visitors, the Garden faculty is holding off on registering them as cadets or offering them jobs.

[Maybe someone you know might turn up?]

Mod note, to reiterate:
  • Fourth wall characters can only be seen at certain hours of the day. They may appear for two hours a day, or four... or seen only in the early morning... the time doesn't matter to us, but they're not permanently here. They may return to Garden multiple times over this fortnight, but they're not around 24/7.
  • Like apped characters, fourth wall characters can't be ridiculously-sized. Transformers, Gundams, and similar concepts/characters will become human-sized (and in the case of mechas, not allowed altogether.)
  • Players (like you and me) are not allowed to visit Garden. We're breaking the fourth wall, not destroying it altogether!
  • Apart from this post, fourth wall characters are free to reply to open posts in [community profile] witchesreign tagged with *post type: event or open logs in [community profile] concoursec. WR players have the option of closing their posts to in-game characters only.
  • All BBS posts are locked to in-game characters only. 4th wall characters do not have access to any sort of logged in posts unless they hijack someone else's log-in---and in those cases, we need to know this beforehand.
  • And a new note: Fourth wall characters applied to the game have the option of keeping the memories of their fourth wall visit(s) here. Threads from the fourth wall event may also be used as samples.

    For those unfamiliar with the setting, here is more info on Balamb Garden's facilities and layout. Additionally, some of the NPCs around and some player characters may be wearing Balamb Garden's cadet or SeeD uniform.

    If you have any more questions, feel free to ask on the OOC post or through the mod channels ([personal profile] wrmods or [plurk.com profile] witchesreign).

    [Jack looks back, twists in midair and lands on a balcony with a frown.]

    Hey, kid uh... what's with the following me?

    [ He pauses, taking a step back in surprise. ]

    You can see me?

    [ It's not something he's used to, but it confirms that this person isn't a human. He shuffles awkwardly, spreading his toes so the breeze can run between them. ]

    I was following the wind. [ He huffs, as though offended. ] And I'm not a kid.

    Of course I can see you.

    [Dubious Jack is dubious. ]

    Following the wind?

    [And you are so a kid.]

    ...What are you, then?

    [ because there are too many kinds of spirits to even begin to guess, though he's pretty sure this guy isn't a sylph. ]

    Un, that's what I do - follow the winds. I haven't found any familiar ones yet though.

    [ excuse you he's almost a century old. except he only knows of eighty or so of those years. oops. ]

    It's more of a who, I'm Jack Frost... you know, nose nipping, frost spreading, snow days. That guy.

    [He shrugs.]

    I just kind of call it whenever I need to.

    [Try three hundred.]

    ...Jack Frost? I didn't think there was a spirit based on those stories anymore.

    [ he hasn't seen or heard of any singular folklore-based spirits in ages. sure, there are dryads, naiads, sylphs, pixies, faeries, mermaids, tanuki, kitsune, and all other sorts of mythical creatures, but there are so few singular, unique spirits left in a world with no place or need for them. ]

    I can only call the Winds I know, and none of them are in this place...

    [ he flutters a few inches off the floor, uncomfortable but enjoying having a proper conversation. with the winds he can fly, but on his own he can't do much more than hover, float, and glide. ]

    My name is Akito. I'm called the Anemoi at home; Shepherd of the Winds.

    Didn't think--?

    [His face just falls at that. Figures that not even a spirit's heard of him.]

    Nice to meet you Akito.

    [ He sees the winter spirit's expression and is quick to add: ] There aren't many myth or folklore spirits left where I come from. Most have been distorted or evolved into new ones.

    [ he continues fidgeting. it's still strange being inside. ]

    It's nice to meet you too, Jack Frost.

    You're a seasonal spirit, ne?
