Pre-Compression ( 04/08 - 04/14 ) Buildings stand perfect, pristine, and totally abandoned. Lights flicker, lifts work sometimes and if you can find a radio or television all it repeats is the last few seconds of something, over and over again. Computers only display the page they were on, vehicles stand silent and unmoving. Weird flickers in the corners or your eye, like you just missed seeing something--or someone. The world of Adstringendum is as it was, seconds before compression. Note: Anything kept on your character when the event ends will be 'recompressed', meaning you might end up with a laser gun with a can of peas melded into the middle. Useful, no, but still cool, right?

Ten Years Later ( 04/22 - 04/28 ) Suggested by Kisa Flash forward, it’s ten years into the future of Adstringendum and you've been here all this time! What's happened over the years? Events, deaths, new friends, old enemies, marriages, all the dramatic and mundane happenings of the city, not to mention those older faces. After all, ten years is enough time for the scientists to have finally managed to fix that pesky time-compression problem somewhere along the way, right? The whole city (people, buildings, animals) are older now; ten years of history in Adstringendum. What have you been doing?

TOTALLY DUDE.

Women. Bah.

[mellowyellow]

Serious relationships are pointless, man. Let's have a bromance instead.

[angle_on_it]

Can do, can do. Sokka will take up stripping under his new stage name, Nicepipe and he and Kida can hit the clubs after work, right? ALL THE LADIES, NONE OF THE COMMITMENT!

LOLOLOL

/facepalming

[mellowyellow]

DUDE, YOU ARE DEDICATED! KIDA MASAOMI APPROVES OF THIS PLAN as long as he's out with the customers in these clubs. Where he doesn't actually have to watch Sokka stripping. You know.







Adstring clubs would be so sad and empty.

[angle_on_it]

...

I was thinking they would go to different clubs. You know, with girls. HAHAHA! Sokka would not want Kida seeing him strip, okay?

You know, there's supposed to be a bar in AD. Sokka went there a couple times with Spike. I always wondered who ran it. Maybe that's what these two can do? Start a bar/strip club?






...And are we seriously entertaining these ideas? Because, omg, ROFLROFLROFL!

[mellowyellow]

It's changed ownership a few times, but I don't think anyone owns it now?

And Kida would totally make an awesome bartender. Hush. Sokka as a stripper not-so-much.

[angle_on_it]

They should own it. Sokka has been fiddling here and there with Spike's still, so I imagine he'd get pretty good at making alcohol after all that gardening with Suki will give him different fermentation options!

As for stripping? Yeah, no. No one wants to see that. XD

Unless Lily Walker wants to give him more pointers~

/may have to ask, but omg, no one wants to see that... no one.

[mellowyellow]

Oh, good idea! Kida and Sokka run the bar. B) He who owns the alcohol owns Adstring.

If we go along with them talking again around year 8, they could start it up that same year? Or we could switch years around to whatever makes sense.


Kida might suggest it to get Suki back, but man, you don't listen to Kida's suggestions. You just don't.

[angle_on_it]

Hahaha, omg, this works out so perfectly! I feel like I need to go make a post to keep it all organized.

I'm definitely okay with them getting back together in year 8, and opening the bar together. Snape's going to kill Sokka in year 9, though, so there's a pending loss that might effect things from there on out. I'm still deciding what that loss will be, so bear with me, please!

No listening to Kida. Nonono... XD

[mellowyellow]

I typed up a timeline. xD; AND NOW I'M ADDING THIS TO IT.

Oh, wow. Looking forward to seeing where that leads~

[angle_on_it]

I think this is where I'll be taking it.

How does Kida feel about having to constantly remind Sokka that he's Kida? Because Sokka will not be able to recognize him every morning. XD But at least he'll be able to remember they're friends!

[mellowyellow]

Oh, nice.

Kida is totally cool with it as long as Sokka lets him know what color everything is. Wouldn't want to serve some tough guy a pink glass. Also, around year 5, he'll start wearing a yellow scarf tied around his upper arm every day. If that helps.

[angle_on_it]

The scarf will definitely help with recognition! And Sokka's totally down with telling Kida the right colors. He'll probably associate the scarf with the color blindness (and therefore recognize Kida is Kida), so it works out!

I'd definitely like to get more into the specifics of how these two had their friendship fall apart.

Also, we totally need more current CR, bb. Totally!

[mellowyellow]

Sweet~!

Hmmm. Well, Kida isn't exactly an upright citizen. He has a lot of secrets that people in Adstring would think are dumb, and yet he constantly lies about them anyway. He has a temper, though it rarely pops up. And he has a bad habit of running away from things rather than facing them, or facing them too late. All that and more could have contributed.

We do! :DDD Kida's next post will probably be about cooking.

[angle_on_it]

Can I spy at your timeline? 8D

And Kida sounds like just the type of person that could get under Sokka's skin (in both good and bad ways.) Jet's pretty much the same way, I think, and they love to fight.

I'm thinking of starting a timeline, too. I've already started on icons!

[mellowyellow]

Right here! In all its incomplete glory.

Wonderful. Masaomi could jump to conclusions and blame Sokka for something he didn't do possibly?

Wow, those are nice. I have no idea what I'm going to do for my boys when it comes to icons.

[angle_on_it]

If you need any icon help and have something in mind, I can offer some basic editing! <33

Thanks for the link! On jumping to conclusions: Perhaps it's the ruination of some shared project? Like their stage burns down? Or, Sokka can accidentally break something that's personal to Kida and then be accused or doing it on purpose?

Either way, I think it'll have to either be a tumultuous time or a serious offense if they're going to stop being friends for a couple years. XD

[mellowyellow]

I actually found a PB for him yesterday, colored a few manga icons, and snagged some fanart. So yay, older!Kida! Hitsugaya's going to be the tricky one.

Kida doesn't actually have much, so anything that was broken would probably get an over-reaction. Especially if it was something Jade or Hotaru or possibly even Jinx gave him.

KIDA IS ACTUALLY KIND OF AN EXPERT ON NOT TALKING TO PEOPLE. He can't enter his girlfriend's hospital room for an entire year after she's injured by a rival gang leader. But it could be directly followed by an event that somehow seals the deal? Or an event could happen right before it, and wrecking something is just the last straw?

[angle_on_it]

Can't wait to see the icons~

Personally, I think I like the idea of an event first, and then Sokka breaking something being the straw that broke the camel's back. ALL THE EXTRA STRESS, because people can do some pretty craaaaazy things during an event!

Also, not sure if I mentioned, but... it looks like there's some possibility of other staff for the bar? Is that okay with you? I was thinking Nathan and Lily Walker could help out with bar tending (and janitorial duties, mwahahaha) when Kida or Sokka weren't behind the bar. I can nix it if you've got objections, of course, and they can just be regulars, but I thought it gave them some time to be more than just slaves to their own establishment.

<3333

[mellowyellow]

Haha. BETRAYAL EVENT or something. Where it's not anyone's fault but secrets were leaked and trust betrayed anyway. So forgiveness happens out of principle, but then when something's broken right after, EVERYTHING COMES TUMBLING DOWN.

That's perfect! No complaints here. More CR too.

[angle_on_it]

Mmmmm, betrayal event. I think I like that most of all~! I think we should totally plan on that. Not sure how interested you'd be in working out details, but what fun it is to think about how it'll affect their future. AWESOME!

[mellowyellow]

Haha, yesssss~

Planning details might be hard without knowing EVERYTHING EVER that happened beforehand, but I'd be willing to try!

Dumb Kida secrets include but are not limited to him being a gang leader (recently overthrown with an execution order on his head) and the fact that his chasing after every girl ever is a cover for his actual lame, lonely self. I would also be up for him betraying Sokka or vice versa by handing out secrets or selling important info or anything like that.

[angle_on_it]

I'm okay with either! It might he harder for Kida to sell out Sokka than Sokka to sell out Kida, as Sokka's pretty much aired his big secrets as the need's arisen. XD

He could probably tell both of those things to the network. Maybe point out how "big and bad" Kida used to be, except he just thinks he was because, haha, he was tossed from his own club and he can't even get and keep a girl.

LOLOL God, Sokka, what a dick you are! XD

[mellowyellow]

Well, there are other ways to betray a person. Like getting Suki involved in something. But that works too! It'd fit with everything else I have really well.

Being a dick during events is fun, k. xD;

[angle_on_it]

Hahaha, getting Suki involved in what? Because I can think of a million somethings. LOL

Either way, we could probably fit everything in, since we've got so damn long to plan for. ;)
