EMP

 

ᛗ

  Behold, an opportunity to gather.

Welcome to Somnia's first EMP! 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:

- TDM: June 7th
- RESERVES: June 21st
- APPS: June 22nd - 26th
- GAME START: July 1st

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. Just like our EMP, you do not need an invite to participate in the TDM, either (only to reserve and app). Mod-run invites will also be available then, so I thank you kindly for your patience!

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

Oh goodness! WELL its okay because there are more parallels to be found. Lu hasn't been cheated on because he has never been in a relationship and is a 35-year-old virgin canonically unless the player character romances him. BUT he was deeply betrayed by his closest family/best friend/cousin-brother (cousins but both raised by grandmom so having the dynamic of brothers) which is what lead to Lu spending a year being tortured and stuffed with a demon. ANYWAY.

He is panromantic and demisexual. He is not sex adverse, he just has always been married to his job and does not feel attraction to others unless he develops feelings for them first, and in the past his feelings were not generally reciprocated.

He is EXTREMELY awkward when he realizes he has feelings for someone because he too doesn't want to deal with the rejection, etc. He reads a lot of romance novels and his cousin has always been a big flirt so he knows how to emulate what he has read/seen and turn it on, but then often panics when it becomes 'too real'.

I dump this info not just because of parallels but also to warn you/anyone reading this that any relationships with Lu will be super slow burn for those reasons... but once he's in, he's LOCKED IN and says the most heart-wrenching, poetic, romantic shit you've ever heard.

And then there's Spite. Who I haven't really mentioned in our discussion but is worth mentioning now because I firmly believe that the way to Lucanis' heart is actually through Spite. If someone can accept the demon he's bound to, not only does Lucanis feel more comfortable being accepted himself, but Spite has a habit of encouraging Lucanis. He's actually a very good boy once he's being listened to, but most people write him off immediately because 'demon'. And frankly idk why they would bc two boyfriends for the price of one?? come on.

YESS.... YESSS.... HAHAHA <- sickos (me)

》being tortured and stuffed with a demon. ANYWAY.

man it really is like that sometimes... RELATABLE

Vis-a-vis panicking when things start getting too real, if he ends up developing feelings for another character I would like to volunteer my extremely unqualified blorbo to give him relationship """advice""" despite dealing with the same issues because god knows that won't stop him! I have to admit I love that whole Genre of thread ESPECIALLY if it's bad advice that he's giving. Cannot emphasize how much he is NOT qualified to be giving relationship advice on intimacy issues.

He bonds by spending time and doing things though so!! He is trying to make friends on the playground here!

Also this is absolutely insane of him but like depending on the relationship Lu seems to have with Spite this mf really might get envious of a Possession. He needs a pet so bad it's unreal

(also me)

I'm down for bad advice always. He does the exact same shit. Literally in canon he gives a colleague advice and then when he's later thanked for it he admits it's never worked for him. So there's that.

Lu and Spite have their ups and downs. It's really dependent on canon choices but I do like playing them getting along.
