[ interest check ]

[murderhost]

HELLO FRIENDS!!!! this is the interest check for beach episode, the cal-and-squee murdergame that will run from april 26th - june 6th. that is six weeks and six weeks maximum! might be less though, if y'all go a little nutty.

if you're at this post, it means you probably got a dm from one of us inviting you to the game! so here's some info:

- the game will be mafia style which means no evidence and no clues. vibes based, babey!!

- the game will be friendly to newbies because a lot of our friends haven't 1) played in murdergames and/or 2) played in mafia style murdergames. so don't stress!

- the game will be capped at 26 players so it's a little bigger than our usual short terms

as you consider if you want to join though, check out the game info for the most robust info! otherwise keep on readin'

our schedule for the week will be:

MON: Mingle Log
TUES: Role Announcement (To be explained later — lightweight, reactive TL. Not an event.)
WED: CR Event
THURS: Break
FRI: Investigation
SAT: Trial
SUN: Execution

as said in the game info page, the most activity intense portion of the week will be the trial (more deets on the game info page). but seriously, once again, don't stress because the main goal of this game is to just see if we can run one of these with our friends in the first place. we're not trying to make this a burden on anyone! if you wanna play, just tap in and we'll figure it out together! we've tried to do what we can to alter the trial format to make it a bit more friendly to people who can't sacrifice their entire weekend to the murder gods.

if you've read this far, thanks! and so not to scare you off: if you've been in the last few rounds of ayto (teens 2, perfect match, teens 3) — that's murdergame pacing. if you've played in an ayto round, you can play in a murdergame round. you'll be fine, prommy.

anyway that's it for the wall of text. if you're ready to go reserves are here and applications are here.

AND the most exciting part...... the discord is live here!

otherwise:

Likelihood: 100%! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
Anything Else: she is very cute

[gumai]

do it. play a girl. i dare you.

[futurehusband]

Player: Caitlin
Character Considerations: Most likely Izuna Hatanaka from a little manga (pls ignore the anime) called A Terrified Teacher at Ghoul School! (Yohaji!) - although I might decide the protagonist would be a funnier option, we shall see :3c
Likelihood: I'M IN U INVITED ME U CANNOT KEEP ME OUT

[gumai]

[inparfait]

Cael, Lovebrush Chronicles
Hong Lu, Limbus Company
Merold, Fragaria Memories
Murr, Mahouyaku
Mikoto, MILGRAM project
Himetsugi, Hana Awase

the chances that i play someone who's not even on this list is not low, bc im me.

Likelihood: 1000% id say ive already apped but i dont know who im playing so i cant say that
Anything Else: in other words you should trust me, thank you for coming to my TED talk

[aspirings]

this list is killing me

[syncer]

Player: Ty
Character Considerations: Junpei Tenmyouji from Zero Time Dilemma, please ignore this journal, I had a few other thoughts but this is funnier
Likelihood: Most likely! I would like to and am pretty sure I can be
Anything Else: I'm mobile no memes from me hi

[aspirings]

points at eyes, points at you

i'm still delighted

[shriveled]

Player: jams
Character Considerations: coquelic from path to nowhere, though i might swerve and go back to the misa amane from death note mines..... or if i TRULY swerve, maybe shisui from apothecary diaries. we shall see...
Likelihood: i'm probably comin! i'm eager to try mgs and will be on short break from school during most of the run... so it all works out!
Anything Else:

[aspirings]

i can't even pick a favorite option out of these, but i have to admit i went MISAMISA IN A MG?? out loud very reverently

[rosietaintedglass]

Player: Fyre
Character Considerations: HMMM my go-tos are either a WuWa (Camellya my beloved needs fresh air eventually, but I have a few others in the wings), a sword (I'd have to think about it but it might just be pulling one out of a hat tbh), or perhaps a Gachiakuta but also I could swerve wildly and throw a Hypmic or Axel (Lazarus) or secret fifteenth thing in here on a whim so you never know.
Likelihood: 100% let's goooooo

Anything Else:

[combathatchet]

Fyre it’s Jen!! I’m not familiar with your picks BUT that doesn’t matter because I’d love to thread with you again!

[honeytraps]

Player: Shay
Character Considerations: I have promised Milly Path to Nowhere for quite some time and she is still my top consideration, though if by some incredibly strange twist of fate there's a cap issue or i get scared of how much more fleshed out a character coco is than milly, I can still swerve. I've been threatening to torture Furina for months now. idk it'll be gacha slap or yandere girl hours OR BOTH!!!
Likelihood: me here....!!!!
Anything Else: Cal already knows this, but I'm going to be in mobile jail for the very first weekend because a family thing came up literally like two days ago...kicks rocks.

also can i be that annoying guy and ask about mania. powers are off ofc, but would someone who had "makes you a crazy monster" disease still have the psychological effects from that? i will be honest i do not think this would change much for milly, but i might as well ask.

[rosietaintedglass]

holds the PTNs lovingly

[bsod]

Player: Ramey
Character Considerations: Probably Mr. Vox Hazbinhotel. He was made for this and I am here to be cringe.
Likelihood: Honestly I'm nnnnnot entirely sure. I will def have an answer in a day or two! A murdergame is alluring bc I've never really been in one but also free time is waves hands.
Anything Else:

[gumai]

rameeeeyyyyy i totally understand if u can't but i'd be so happy to have you and your tv

[dissimulative]

Player: Haki
Character Considerations: Oria Severine (original character)... He's loud, annoying, and will probably get up in your face to be obnoxious. Insufferable. He's the only other decent pick I have for a reality TV setting.
Likelihood: 90%!! Unless something pops up where I suddenly can't play!! I'm good for now though.
Anything Else: i got nothing. i've played murdergames before, but i'm totally new at mafia-style

[rosietaintedglass]

chews on you and this mystery OC helpfully

[gonegirl]

Player: thirteen
Character Considerations: top condenders rn are Invisigal from Dispatch or Muelsyse from Arknights. One's a supervillain trying to reform into a superhero and the other's an ecologist elf lol.
Smaller chance I also just pivot to either Blaze Arknights or Luye from Legend of Hei 2... Need to decide what kind of vibes I want to bring
Likelihood: Like 90%! I've got some irl obligations during that first weekend, but beyond that I'm mostly free rn and I've always been curious about giving a mg a whirl at least once.
Anything Else:

[gumai]

omg invisigal... i love this. i love all these picks so i'm here for it all!

[incurse]

Player: bayleaf
Character Considerations: currently considering yuta okkotsu from jujutsu kaisen...i'm sorry i'm always playing from like two canons
Likelihood: holds out my paw, I'M IN
Anything Else:

[gumai]

YUTA??????????? MY SON?????????? YES PLEASE

[voring]

Player: aki!
Character Considerations: either obikawa kiyoshi from after god or lucas proust from virche evermore. oops all braided blondes! how did i get here
Likelihood: LEANING TOWARDS LIKELY..... grips everyones paws... it's been a hot second since i've been in maf style mgs but i'd love to die and explode with everyone 🥺
Anything Else: please witness obikawa's enormous cat named macho

[gumai]

I'M SOOOOOO EXCITED FOR AKI LOOK AT THAT GIANT CAT

[noirges]

Player: Dana
Character Considerations: Yves from Virche Evermore! (covers the eyes of anyone canon familiar) he deserves this trust me..... but if i can come up with someone funnier or more chaotic who'd be good for ~ratings~ then i will reconsider
Likelihood: YA YA YA
Anything Else:

trust....................

so many old friends and faces hello helloooo

[gumai]

i have faith in this man

[cleansheets]

Player: Luna
Character Considerations: I'm still waffling hardcore so PLEASE come enable me and help me settle!!

-Doppo from Hypmic
-Matsuka from Toward The Terra
-More from Metaphor
-SOMEONE ELSE, IDK, YOU TELL ME...?!

Likelihood: 100%! Baring freak accidents, I'll be there!
Anything Else: I assume the answer is yes but I didn't see it mentioned: is there a graveyard/deadland?

[gumai]

MORE???? OH MY GOD he would be so good. idk the others but i know the canons are great so i'm so into any of them!!

and yes, there is a graveyard!

[rtj]

Player: Christy
Character Considerations:


Marazhai (Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader)

you know that character in most murdergames that's like "oh god we should kill that guy" yeah you should kill this guy
or: murderous space elf who very literally feeds off the suffering of others. thanks to Circumstances in canon he'll at least be house-trained (aka will not kill people on sight for pure funsies) but is generally nasty and unpleasant... but if you stand up to him or are curious about his culture, he relaxes a lot more quickly than you'd think

Roathe (Warframe)

blue man group (solo act)
or: general of an army on the edge of extermination by their sentient machines who took a chance for redemption that he doesn't remember. he's very salty about the whole thing and is like your sassy bitchy friend (?) that might have also done some extreme war crimes like it's fine??? who's even keeping track

Zhao (Zenless Zone Zero)

omg isn't she sooooo cute I'm sure she's normal 😊
or: tiny bnuy woman who is indeed a grownass woman in her 30s and is like the world's most ruthless compliance officer where if you're too naughty with your taxes they kill you

Likelihood: yes!!! I talked to Cal to make sure LMAOOOOO
Anything Else: hey nerds i missed yall did you miss my absolute freakshow rosters... please help me pick though since this is genuinely a three way tie of characters I want to play

[gumai]

oh my god the juxtaposition between marazhai and roathe and then fucking zhao. my vote is zhao bc tiny bnuy woman who will fucking kill you is so funny to me

but i will take ANYONE bc i am JUST SO EXCITED FOR CHRISTY!!!!!!!!!!

[unsean]

Player: kosy
Character Considerations: i'm between qifrey from witch hat atelier or desscaras from ichi the witch..... that's all i'm offering (slaps the roof of a car) questionable witch mentors
Likelihood: IT IS LIKELY i think
Anything Else:

[rosietaintedglass]

DESSCARAS!!!!!!!!!11one

I’m biased but I need her

[stds]

Player: marion
Character Considerations: i have a couple!!

first is fumiko mifune from chainsaw man -- she is a terrible girl but with some depths to her. she works for public safety as a devil hunter and is very morally gray as most csm characters are

second is carlos from zero time dilemma -- he is a good boy who is an american and a firefighter and has a sister and those are the three most important things about him. ty if you see this, hi

Likelihood: i'll be in! there's one weekend in may i'm booked and need off but otherwise my calendar is free.
Anything Else:

[combathatchet]

yay a game with marion again!! both options would be great tbh

[memori3s]

Player: Jin
Character Considerations: Minato Arisato (Persona 3), Phantom (Arknights), Executor (Arknights) aka 3 different versions of man standing emoji
Likelihood: Yes!!
Anything Else: touches the ground. I've never mg'd before I am here to bear witness... Trying to figure out which char would be the funniest given the rest of the group... nice to meet you if you're new and nice to see you again if you're a familiar face!!

[rosietaintedglass]

knocks the standing men over like dominoes
