To: General
Subject: Hatching Time
Warnings: None

[ Initially, only Claude's face appears on the feed, alongside is wyvern. She is resting her chin on his shoulder and that hand of his is giving her a pat pat pat. So much patting. ]

I'm sure you all remember me talking about this several moons ago, but hey! The time finally came. I was starting to get a little worried, considering I have no clue what the incubation time for wyvern eggs are here. Everything went smoothly though, I promise. They actually hatched a few days ago, but I wanted to give them some time.

[ Now the video feed shifts, away from Khalid and Azita, and onto the little baby wyverns. Special guest star Leona is also present, already holding a small lizard in his arms. Seems like it's already attached. There's another one, in Claude's arm. ]

Leona and I are going to be co-parenting these kids for a little while so -

[ Unfortunately, Claude gets cut off. With Leona shoving the man's face, ears folded back. ]

Don't say it like that.

[ Too bad Khalid is unbothered, catching Leona's hand and winking. ]

Sorry, gorgeous. I meant co-parenting the hatchlings. [ Another laugh and moving right along. He's looking at the camera once more, ignoring the grumbling from behind him. ] As you all can probably tell, one little one is spoken for. I don't know about this one, so we'll just have to wait and see.

Ironic that they'd hatch while we're having issues with wild wyverns.

CR WORKSHIP: JULY 2025

Our ~~CR Meme~~ CR Workship is where players can drop all the cool info for their characters and try to plot with others to continue existing or create new CR. Be sure to look over the MANTA Board as well as current events if you'd like to include them in your post.

We also include a designated toplevel for Crew Recruitment where players can make OOC ad posts for others to either join or request to join or make a crew. This is all for OOC coordination, so you'll have to figure out how it works ICly.

If you have multiple characters, make an individual toplevel for yourself with your player info and comment to it with each character separately.

PLAYER INFO

Player:
Contact: Preferred means of contact

CHARACTER INFO

Character: Character
Canon: Include canon point
Armada: Paladin or Corsair

About: Briefly talk about the character. Can include background info or just stick with personality traits—whatever will be most useful to help other players learn about them! You can include a link to any character profile sheets or entries you might have, too.

Abilities: Include both canon and abilities you'd like to develop through the tattoo.

PLANS

General: Any ideas or plans you'd like to do with your character? This could be short term or long term.
MANTA Board: Any plans for the MANTA Board?
Event: Any plans for the event? Topleveling? Tagging out? Specific prompts that caught your interest?

CR Dreams: What kind of CR do you wish to have? Include what you can offer with your character as well.

Etc.: Anything else or, you know, the usual memes. NOTE: we have an image code for players to use as it will fix the width of the image to 400px. This is so large images don't take up entire pages. If your image is smaller than that you can remove the code, otherwise please use the code.

IF YOU HAVE MULTIPLE CHARACTERS, create your own toplevel and comment with each character separately to it. Include your name in the subject line. Although not specifically included, you are more than welcome to write up a greeting message along with the form!

SUBJECT LINE: CHARACTER | CANON | ARMADA

video; un: baymaxing

Type: Video
<Sender ID: baymaxing (Hiro Hamada)
To: Public
Subject: Underwater Investigations.
Warnings: None that I can think of immediately?

[Hiro is tinkering away in his dedicated space to work and research, Baymax observing nearby and apparently attempting to help clean up a little. The teen speaks as he works on something or other, notes next to him.]

I was thinking.....I know others here are also...uh, I guess, inventors? We should help out, work together? I know there've been times when we've needed to like, dive and go underwater, right? I've been thinking if I can come up with something to help with that? It's just a matter of coming up with ideas. What might work? Diving is fine, but even that only gets you down so far. And you'd have limited oxygen with the tanks....Maybe some sort of machine you can go in? It'd have to be tested and stuff. Make sure it's safe. That it could handle the pressure.....I dunno. If anyone has any suggestions, ideas? I've dealt with making suits for other stuff, but not so much the water. That kind of makes things a bit more complicated. Maybe something like a drone for underwater? So we can look around to be sure of whatever we might find, and then go down after.....?

[He ends up more sort of spouting off ideas to himself more than anything, and Baymax glances over at the teen, telling him that he should go and take a break. Get some rest and something to eat. Hiro does have a tendency to get rather distracted and focused on his plans, his work, and ignoring anything else.]

Okay, okay, bud. I'm coming. Um, yeah, let me know what you guys think?

[Hiro says before giving a wave and ending the video so Baymax will stop telling him to take a break.]

[video] Searching for parents

[ Emet-Selch looks a little harried and stressed today when the video feed begins. There is a little axolotl clinging to a front lock of his hair, gently chewing. He either doesn't notice or doesn't care as there is urgency to his gaze and tone. ]

Should anyone encounter a pair of ambystomae - I mean, axolotls - with a carnivorous tendency, please abstain from killing them immediately and inform me of their location. I need to return their child to them.

[ This won't stop anyone killing the many axolotls involved in the search but he has to hope he finds the parents before they're accidentally killed. ]
