ATP&EMP

ᛗ

Behold, an opportunity to gather.

Welcome to Somnia's fourth ATP & EMP Meme! This is the place to be if you're interested in the game's setting, if you're unsure about who you'd like to bring or if you just want to check out the vibes. Remember that the EMP is open to all, and you don't need an invite to participate in the slightest!

Dates to note are as follows:

- EVENT/TDM: March 1st
- RESERVES: March 13th
- APPS: March 20th - 26th

An opportunity for players who do not have invites to post their interest in receiving one will be available on the TDM as a mod comment to reply to. Current players may extend their invites, and if you don't know anyone in the game, the mod will make a decision (note that this does not guarantee an invite). Just like our EMP, you do not need an invite to participate in the TDM, either— only to reserve and app.

Use the forms below to show us those pretty white jaws!

hi, i'm not in the hsr cast but my character lives with them and is especially close with caelus and aventurine so i wanted to come voice my support for these cool ideas too!! also as a former hsr player i adore ratio so i really hope to see you app in and that the mod approves of your awesome ideas! ♥

nicola here is an intelligent, college-educated guy himself but he's from 1925 italy so he's still ignorant in many areas that are common knowledge to modern/sci-fi characters lmao. he would be wary of the DU thing at first but i'm sure caelus could talk him into joining it if it happens

More potential non-idiots yesss

I too adore this surprisingly moe buff man. I’ve been writing fanfics of the man and Aventurine since their release. Platonic? Romantic? Poly? All delicious.

Haven’t posted them due to my own perfectionism demanding me to complete them first, but hey it translated to excellent writing practice.

Part of the reason I was able to come in guns blazing was I’ve been needing to kill a darling of inflicting something similar on Ratio in one fic.

I know this game will occupy my braincells for a long time if the mods let me vent the ‘snap this man’s humanity in two and force him to fight to reclaim it’ urge.

That and maybe teach a few people programming. I actually do code IRL so be prepared for in depth instructions if Nicola has any interest in getting a coding degree too.

Someone will need to stop Ratio from throwing Nicola straight into assembly code though. (Because let’s be real Herta would be off her rocker enough with Screwllum to think coding it all in assembly for max performance would be a good idea.) He could probably be talked down into C++ or if sufficient teeth are pulled Python or JavaScript.

Ratio will be extremely grateful to know there was someone looking after the two. Also extremely pleased to see Aventurine in particular have friends.

Also what’s Nicola’s degree. If Ratio is going to essentially start a school here, he is probably going to need to suck it up and delegate some subject matter to other people.

TLDR: pspspspsp, give this man friends

♥

ratiorine is a truly goated pairing, they're still one of my favorite hsr ships to this day next to avencae! i gave up on writing fanfics like 15 years ago so kudos to you for trying at all

nicola hasn't even learned how to use a computer yet LOL, if ratio put one in front of him he wouldn't even know how to turn it on 🤣 he is canonically good at math though so maybe one day he can try programming lessons

he totally agrees that aventurine in particular deserves all the friends and happiness in the world!! caelus is already like the most popular person in the game so nicola ain't worried about him on that front. he worries on a lot of other fronts though lmao

his degree is in economics but nicola doesn't think that's very useful in a world where the economy no longer exists.... he's already been teaching a couple people including caelus english since most of the city's written texts are in english. he's also been teaching caelus italian since he wanted to learn nicola's native language 🥹 he can also teach french but nobody's requested french lessons yet

he's become a gym rat since joining somnia since he has all the time in the world to exercise now (and he's trying to become as strong as possible for personal reasons), so he could teach phys ed too lmao. he can definitely teach math. there's a lot of unorthodox subjects he could teach too if he really wanted to but better not to spread himself too thin y'know

hell yes i very much need this friendship!!!

♥ ♥ ♥

Ratpiss feeds me so well. It’s that mutual understanding found by two lonely people in each other that gets me.

Not that Ratio is fully aware of all the exceptions he makes for Aventurine to his own usual rules. It wouldn’t be hard to knock him out of the student zone he is currently stuck in though. Such a thing being possible would depend fully if sortie ‘s interested in shipping or a one sided thing.

Ratio’s shiny bias aside though, yes Aventurine deserves the world please give the man more reasons to live. Ratio’s stress levels will thank you.

Also Nicola taxes will exist again once the situation is resolved. If the kids are despairing over the nonexistent hypothetical economy and filling out tax forms then they aren’t despairing over the crappy situation. Language is always useful too.

The only other options for physical ed would potentially be Gojo if that app goes through. And Ratio would want to strangle the man. Save him from that conversation Nicola.

[panzana]

it's ok nicola has made exceptions for aventurine too.... and caelus... he's very weak for both of them 🤣

nicola is struggling with his own self-destructive tendencies and will to live tbh LOL (he already died in his own world before coming here) but he's trying his best.... these two help with that as well as his younger cousin dante who's also living with them (and is played by aventurine's player!)

somebody else will have to teach the kids how to file taxes because they didn't have to do that in 1925 but nicola can teach them more old-fashioned economic aspects lmao

ratio strangling gojo would be so funny though LMAOOOO but sure, nicola can consider saving him the trouble if he's asked

[athinkingreed]

Look it’s either give into their whims or get pestered into participating anyway 30 minutes later. It’s more efficient to give in ahead of time.

Wonderful, another self destructive blonde to latch onto. Clearly this friendship is fate. I’m sure Dante is lovely too.

Guess Aventurine needs to be brought in to fill those gaps. But that’s assuming he doesn’t tax evade like most rich people.

Good he doesn’t need another attempted mauling on his record even if this one is surely deserved.
