Filter Failure ( 07/10 - 07/16 ) Suggested by prthecrazyone Filters: an important part of daily life in Adstringendum. So what happens when the filters unexpectedly go down for a week? All your private business? Is now public. Better start thinking of secret codes now.

Power Failure ( 07/13 - 07/27 ) Suggested by iceandivory Were you able to make fire, use magic, or do something cool and super-human before? Get used to being without that ability for a week or two. All your abilities, actually. The Animus just thought they were that delicious. Important: Take notice of the dates on this one--the calendar doesn't easily split two ways, but it is on-going during the last half of Filter Failure, right up until the festivities begin.

Summer Fling ( 07/28 - 07/30 ) Must be all those tasty powers they had for lunch--the Animus are throwing a party! Well, more like a festival, really. Food and fun for all! (More details on this will be forthcoming~)

\o/ SO AWESOME \o/

And it occurs to me... lack of super-human abilities ought to mean no vampiric speed for Spike. Gonna be one hongry vampire unless he focuses enough to make traps or he gets volunteers for a pint here and there. (Yes, the typo was intentional there)

[soundsofdrums.livejournal.com]

As a Time Lord, does that mean that the Master's essentially going to be made 'human'? A ton of his abilities, so to speak, are pure Gallifreyan biology (regeneration, respiratory bypass, random craptons of other stuff because this show has been around way too long), so would those stick or be taken away too?

[law-of-reason.livejournal.com]

Yes, the Master would be exactly the same as a human. Senses and lack of regeneration and all. Exciting new human biology!

ANGEL PLOT TIMES. 8D

[neverquitedies.livejournal.com]

Hey, Stringers!

So, with the way that the calender is split- especially since I don't think any of you want the angels to attack when all of your powers are gone- what would you all say to tentatively putting the dates on the 6th or 7th through the 13th? I KNOW IT'S A LITTLE EARLIER THAN I THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE, SORRY, but I wasn't sure how the events would pan out. >>

Speaking of which though, EPIC events. For the power failure, would that include pokemon like Xatu? And would Yuca retain memories of his previous lives, or does that count as a power?

[law-of-reason.livejournal.com]

/hadn't known the layout of events either tbh

And the pokemon would also be affected too. No special abilities/magics. ...And it's up to you with Yuca, I'm not sure if that counts as a power or whether it'd be like anyone else's memories (just more of them).

Re: ANGEL PLOT TIMES. 8D

[unreadability]

Oh Gods, you couldn't have chosen a better date for the angel plot to run! XD It fits perfectly with the plotting currently going on in the Silver Wolf crew. Yay!

[argentimperator.livejournal.com]

*runs around trying to clear old threads*

[offdutyturk.livejournal.com]

I find irony in that Reno and Juliet were just talking about fairs/carnivals last night - perfect for this festival thing. This looks exciting all across the board.

[population-ctrl.livejournal.com]

Yay, that will be a lot of fun! All of it. :D

I have a question, though. Regarding filter event - we're talking about filters made during the event, right? Or private filters in general?

[law-of-reason.livejournal.com]

All filters made during the event, yes. :D It wouldn't retroactively destroy past filters.

[knifetotheface.livejournal.com]

MY EVENT GOT IN.

[kill-joo-ded.livejournal.com]

For the powers event, would Hitsugaya literally be brought down to the strength of his body, or just lose kidou, zanpakutou abilities, etc. while still having the physical strength and flexibility to wield the sword itself?

[law-of-reason.livejournal.com]

I think it'd be the strength of a normal human body of that age? One that's had a lot more training than the average person, so better than that, but still within, like- human limitations?

[swordsinside.livejournal.com]

...aw man, Shura's going to lose half of her excuse to walk around half-naked all the time XD THESE SOUND FUN THOUGH.

[argentimperator.livejournal.com]

Hm. Would Sephiroth lose Jenova's voice in the back of his head along with his.... huge, huge stack of superhuman abilities? [wtf, materia stopped working too...]

[law-of-reason.livejournal.com]

I think he'd lose the voice, yeah, since it's part of what makes him- other-than-human?

[promotedmsnger.livejournal.com]

Two things:

Since Jr. came into Adstring not aging, can the aging halt effect treat him like he's new so he'll grow a bit at first before it stops again?

And will Jr. lose Albedo's presence in his subconscious for the event, since it's not exactly a normal split personality deal?

[law-of-reason.livejournal.com]

Sorry I took way too long to reply to these. ;~;

He might, yeah- but how much could he really grow in a couple weeks?

And if Albedo's not a normal split personality thing, then yeah, he'd probably be gone. You know more of how he works, though- so it's up to you how you want to consider it. Whether the personality would be gone, or whether they'd just not have any powers.

[al_truism]

... oh crap. Ciel's going to be so unhappy with the lack of super-butler. Al, on the other hand, will probably be cool with it.

Also looooll filter failure. All sorts of special could come with that.

[hisbutler_bound]

Plain boring butler ...go :| .....and you may be sexy but screw you Al.

[hisbutler_bound]

So Sebastian will be entirely human in all sense. Man he's going to hate being what he hates.

.....given that he starves himself, is he actually going to have to eat.... food? 8Da bwahahaha

Question....!

[hisbutler_bound]

Actually about that. Sebastian can sustain himself without food, water, sleep and etc. He starves without eating souls for quite a while in the manga and still is. He doesn't sleep at all because he's a demon but I'm not sure if it's the self healing demon thing or something else.

Are those natural abilities taken away as well or is it just general abilities :|a I'm not even sure if that would be counted as an ability.

[supermistfrog.livejournal.com]

For Kyoko-

Would the soul gem become a part of her body again? And would it still corrupt? :|a

[law-of-reason.livejournal.com]

It would... be part of her body again, yes. She'd be like she was before it got ripped out. So no corruption either! Pre-magical girl times!

[wingsandwill.livejournal.com]

WHAT WILL CASTIEL DO WITHOUT HIS FILTERS? 8| He has like, three sides he needs to play against each other and that's hard to do when it's obvious you're doing it.

Also no powers hehehehe. He may actually be less concerned with being human than with the filters thing though. >.>

This month's events are awesome.

[reckless-equine.livejournal.com]

Does the power failure thing include artifacts?

[law-of-reason.livejournal.com]

Yeah, anything with magic/supernaturally-based powers wouldn't work during the event.

[bunny_flower]

I have a question about each of my charas.

Unohana - It's not difficult to have her lose her healing and shinigami abilities, but I can I work on the assumption that she keeps her medical knowledge ? Meaning, she'd be able to help, except she'd have to do first aid like any normal human medic.

Vincent - same type of deal. He'd of cours ebe entirely human, no Chaos inside, no super fast healing abilities ... but he used to be a sharpshooter, which is not so much a power as somethinghe's been trained to do. Would he keep his gun-using abilities and close combat ones, with the provision that of course, he'd be on a normal human level for someone who's been trained as an assassin and a spy?

Hinata - She'd of course lose her Byakugana nd all abilities that require chakra. But just like Vinny, there are some abilities she has that came not through powers, but training. for example, hand to hand combat and kuani or shurinken throwing. Her physical strength being what it is, it won't be much use to her without the Byakugana nd chakra anyway, but would she keep those things that she learnt since she was four years old?

[law-of-reason.livejournal.com]

That would be yes to all of those. <3 Having the limitations of a human body doesn't mean having no skills ever. Mentally they'd still have all their knowledge, and physical training and reflexes would still be there- just not on a supernatural level.

[genkireaper]

Question for Botan!

When the power failure begins, what if she has something manifested already? Would it be stuck as an ordinary item, or un-manifest right then?

[law-of-reason.livejournal.com]

Mm, it might be stuck as an ordinary item? Depends on what it is?

[jimwillfixit.livejournal.com]

I TOTALLY FORGOT ASKING THIS.

During Filter Failure, does posting anonymously still work?

[law-of-reason.livejournal.com]

I don't think so- since that would sort of count as a really thorough filter.
