Weeks 9-12

Welcome to Fishing Season!

With the fishing season upon Atlantis at last, the city is going to be bursting with activity, both at the docks and the city center itself. For the next four weeks the ocean will be full of ships of all shapes and sizes out trying to make the most of the flood of fish filling the bay. Atlantean's have the next two weeks off for 'Spring Break' when it comes to school, and all the young Atlantean's will be making use of the time to fill the beach. The youngest children flying kites (shaped like various legendary Atlantean beasts) with their parents or building sand castles and playing Sand Leviathan, while older kids and teens will be out enjoying the warm bay waters and playing beach sports of various types. It's an active and productive time for Atlantean adults who fill their time stocking the markets, handling at the docks and offering their animals for help with fish carts. The city roads will be busy, with carts pulled by everything from island horses and goats to chocobos and hogs.

The weather is fantastic and everyone seems overall very happy, if a bit hectic. There will be plenty of jobs around for anyone looking to work, and the more venturesome individuals will find this is SPECTACULAR trading time. In addition to fish, some of the larger docking boats will be unloading crates full of fabrics and raw materials. If asked where they got them, most captains will shrug or claim to have fished them from the sea. It is difficult to guess at their origins and no one is very forthcoming with information.

Atlantean's do not celebrate April Fool's, so the month of April holds little significance to them beyond being spring time and the celebration of Gaia. Still... there may be some chaos in store for the future...

Atlantis Weeks 9-12

As far as plots go, the next few weeks have some pretty heavy NPC plot going on that will show up throughout the weeks. Look for a lot of activity from the Atlantean's themselves. A Beach and Docks log will go up at the start of Week 9, and a Market log between weeks 9 and 10 as well as several NPC posts related to the plot. Interacting with the NPC posts is highly encouraged as it will help determine how and where things go the next few weeks, but is not required!

Week 12 is especially relevant to our growing cast of werewolves, as well as to any star-gazers or astronomers.


Gabriel's Fools
Atlantean's may not celebrate April fools, but a certain trickster does. Week 11 is going to be full of pranks becoming real, chaotic weather, crazy shenanigans and a moon that appears to be made out of cheese. Is it really? Who can say?

Look for more information on this plot to come around the end of Week 10. Details are still in process


Week 9: 
3/17 - 3/23
Warm Spring Weather and Sunny skies with fair winds

Sunday Cheese Moon is not a Full moon.

Week 12:

The temperature will be in the 77-86F ~ 25-30C range
The night sky will feature:

Four moons, with two in the sky Sun-Tuesday and a different two Wed-Friday. Just one moon on Saturday
As far as our werewolves are concerned this entire week is full of full moons with varying effects. The smallest moon Sunday-Tuesday being farthest away and 'weak' while the small orange moon the remaining four days will act as a sort of 'catnip for wolves'. Happy-high werewolves will be acting like over-grown puppies. The sky will be full of many very bright stars.

I guess I will need to read the comics to truly know.... which I don't anticipate on doing so anytime soon. orz Comics never really interested me much, sadly, and I'm really such a bad Loki player that I'm not reading from the originals. XD

Wiki probably isn't the best source then, in that case. :|a

But then, MCU and Comics!Loki are pretty different too from what I've heard. Or perhaps they're just from different points of time in his life. He's still rather mild in MCU.

SORRY THAT WAS TL;DR BUT IF YOU EVER WANT TO READ SOME STUFF THAT DOESNT NEED OTHER STUFF LET ME KNOW I WILL TTLY SET YOU UP, BRO

ANYWAY we were plotting before this and i can't remember what we were plotting about. i think it was cell phones.

I WILL JUST HAVE TO WAIT FOR THOR 2 AND DO MORE CANON INSIGHTS THAT WAY.

Because I am almost positive that that will happen before any comic reading.

Uh, yes, cell phones. I think it depends on how mini-Loki presents himself to see how much big-Loki will end up trusting him. Though!

Mini now knows where to find Big. He's still frequenting the library, hence it will be possible to stalk him there if, IF, Mini comes alone.

i love how where ever i go i always resort to calling them "little" and "big."

IT'LL BE INTERESTING. he might come drop him a line either way and depending on circumstance will ask for his number eventually. tbh i keep saying concrete things and then being like NO WAIT. NO WAIT THATS NOT HAPPENING. so we'll just kind of sail through this and let lokis do what they want because thats what they're inclined to do anyway.

there might not be much trusting going on, because the little one is definitely not ready yet. he was burned pretty bad by his evil-self. the i'm-gonna-erase-my-innocence-forever kinda burn.

YES. OMG YES. Someone who understands the pain of YOUR CHARACTER DOING NOTHING OF WHAT YOU PLANNED. You'd THINK they're going one way, then they get to a crossroad you didn't even know existed, probably because half the time they made it themselves, and they'll go NOPE! and walk down the other path.

I've kinda given up plotting for Loki except for the vaguest of the vague plans. He doesn't even listen to that sometimes.

And what else am I supposed to call him except Little and Big? I mean, he's technically older.... kinda. And this bigger one isn't evil. D: He'd never drop Asgard. That takes years before he's at that point.
