HI <3 I AM SO EXCITED I'M GRINNING LIKE SUCH AN IDIOT OMG STEAMPUNK WHEEEE

okay a couple of official things -

• i know usually first posts are used to keep track of things, but thoughts on using a google doc? all cabin planning would happen here, but just something that's a bit easier to update lol
  
• sibling cabins! zy offered to do a duo with mystery, but also alana and i were thinking about a magical realism-steampunk duo? thoughts there :0 (oh and also - thoughts on letting alana honorary around steampunk? we were talking about how we'd totally camp in each others' cabins if we could bwaha)
  
• recca's still pending on our offer - if she decides to go for another cabin, what do you want to do? i was thinking that crocs could potentially be a really enthusiastic second co who's also into arcane - or snowy or surf could be fun to work with too! but also, i'm honestly just chill with the two of us (if recca doesn't accept, but we're manifesting) if you think we'd be good on handling the workload with everything else we have going on in our Busy Highschool Lives

and then two silly things..

• i've been looping maisie peters all day and i cannot get run out of my head please send help
  
• ALSO DO YOU WANT TO REWATCH ARCANE WITH ME IF WE EVER HAVE TIME!!! or just jam to the arcane ost together hehehe
  
  

okay slay ily have fun at your meeting <333

we love blowing up bridges

okay YAY HIIIIII ARCANEEEE STEAMPUNKKKK LETS GOOO

- oooo google doc would be so useful, especially if we have more forum issues like last session so we can still have access to most of our ideas/notes/etc
- personally i think magical realism & steampunk would be so so cool :pleading: and i'm good with alana honorary-ing too! was actually gonna ask about that so you beat me to it ;D
- hmm okay, i just read through crocs' app – she could be a lot of fun to work with, and we love fellow arcane stans <3 i like surf and snowy's cabin atmosphere ideas though, they seem to line up pretty good with what we're thinking? so if it comes to that then i'm open to any of the three! in terms of duoing, i wouldn't minddd but i agree that we're very busy people, so it might be easier to balance with another co

and silly things
- IF A MAN SAYS THAT HE WANTS YOU IN HIS LIFE FOREVER… RUN!!!!
- YES?? ONE HUNDRED PERCENT?? ABSOLUTELY??

i wonder if there are bridges in texas

YES LETS GO OMG WHEEEEEE!!!! cartwheels and squawks

google doc sounds good, i’ll make that and send it along to you either tonight or tomorrow depending on my hw bwahaha
and slay on siblings! i’ll let alana and zy know, and i’ll ask zy what kind of relationship they’d be interested in having
sounds good on the co leaders as well - i agree, i think three would probably be best haha

for cabin aesthetic vibes - do you want to go ahead and make a canva? i was thinking about cabin colors and i feel like we’re obligated to have blue and pink in there somewhere but also i have no idea omg piltover and zaun have such different aesthetics

alsooo thoughts on cabin setting/plotline/the three act thing? i’m open to quite literally anything hehehe

and silly things
SO TRUE!! i run from men all the time i’m so anti male species (for legal reasons this is a joke)
YAYYYY OMG OK WE NEED TO DO THAT SOMETIME SOON THEN WEHN WE ARENT DIE CRY BYEING OVER RESEARCH APPS AND GOVERNMENT

afternoon love <3

recca declined — i’m thinking about offering to crocs or paige now? they’re both into arcane bwahaha…paige is someone i’ve known for awhile and i know she’d be a great co, and i am so in love with crocs’ enthusiasm :pleading: i think i’m leaning towards crocsss but not set on that yet ahah

OH WAIT BUT ALSO SNOWY stop choicesss dlkfjdsg because i love snowy’s compassion and gosh her app is so pretty and genuine and she’d be such a good addition to the team too

i wonder if there are bridges in texas

KABOOM

for cabin aesthetic vibes - do you want to go ahead and make a canva? i was thinking about cabin colors and i feel like we’re obligated to have blue and pink in there somewhere but also i have no idea omg piltover and zaun have such different aesthetics

sounds good! i'll do that tonight <3 and yes yes hmmm will play around with that

alsooo thoughts on cabin setting/plotline/the three act thing? i’m open to quite literally anything hehehe

ooo okay i think the concept of having “three acts” is super fun, and you mentioned something about tying that into accomplishing goals, which is an interesting idea :0 not sure how much we want to play around with the same timeline or something different? with the dynasty, moonsy and i did it a while after so we could sorta have the same world, but basically mess around with whatever we wanted, or we could stick with a similar timeframe and have jinx and vi cameos :sparkles: (screams it's been so long i need to rewatch this)

SO TRUE!! i run from men all the time i’m so anti male species (for legal reasons this is a joke)

same babes so real

ooo okie! sounds gooddd, both seem like great options <33

okay so crocs accepted pepper's offer to co-lead myth! so now between snowy and paige - i should probably act on that soon because snowy has an offer bwahaha, but i'll keep you posted with what i end up doing <33

and will respond to everything else later tonight <3

was just about to message you about that bwahaha – no worries, sounds good <3

just offered to snowy! and will talk about cabin things when i get back on my laptop — just so you know, i’ll probably go to sleep in abt half an hour tn <3

boo what's up bestie

oho :0 for the three act thing, i was thinking essentially yk how goals usually have steps to them/progress in stages? we could line that up with the three-act structure - so the first part is like starting out, the second part is developing the goals, and the third is bringing them to a close .. my only thought is how exactly we'd go about that since yk sticking to deadlines is hard LDJFGK

i think sticking with a similar time frame would be fun!! cameos sound cool and also because i have no idea what the world looks like after jinx blew it up LDJFSDKLFJSLKDG we don't need to adhere to it exactlyyy but all of the tensions in that timeframe are very funsy to play around with

SNOWY ACCEPTED <33 welcome snowy!!
let us know whatever we need to explain about arcane as we roll bwahaha
but also you should so watch it just in general it's such a masterpiece omg

hmm we have four ish days till camper signups - i think it'd be good to focus on getting canva/cabin aesthetics set up as well as our cabin atmosphere?

boo what's up bestie

the stars

first part is like starting out, the second part is developing the goals, and the third is bringing them to a close

OH I SEE I SEE wait i like this ooooo
AND LSDKFJLSDJF OH YEAH SHE DOES BLOW UP THE WORLD we love jinx

hmm we have four ish days till camper signups - i think it'd be good to focus on getting canva/cabin aesthetics set up as well as our cabin atmosphere?

yesss! okay so i'll send you both a canva, anddddd we can go from there i guess? cabin atmosphere wise, luna i loved yours <3 maybe we can find a way to cut it down a little so we're at the character limit? but i think the ideas of imagination, interactivity, and three-act goal setting are good things to stick with

AND AYYY WELCOME SNOWY <33 come blow up bridges with us, we're so happy to have you

HI GUY, CAN’T WAIT TO BLOW UP THOSE BRIDGES <333 So excited to work with the both of you, haha

Okay, so the current plan for things we need to do sounds great — we should definitely figure out that symbol and atmosphere (I’ll look at both of yours in a bit because I have not checked most apps yet, haha), and I’ll do a bit of catching up on the rest of it tonight for me as well. I’ll also probably try to watch at least an episode or two of Arcane over the weekend just so I get a rough idea of what we’re talking about (also if anyone wants to see if we could watch together, that’d be super fun — though time zones might be a bit difficult).

Magical Realism-Steampunk sounds so cool as well! And I’ve got an anonymous email, so Google Docs is fine for me as well.

KABOOM!!!
i think that and go out with a bang (and a yeehaw) are my catchphrases for this session

on mobile since i’m currently getting ready for school lolol so no quoting buuut!

WATCHING ARCANE TOGETHER SOUNDS SO MUCH FUN OMG — if you guys aren’t too busy this weekend maybe we could do something then? my netflix acc is named “offspring” so i could stream something without having to worry about internet safety at the very least we should so listen to the soundtrack together its soo good omg

reese - canva sounds good! i’ll work on getting a studio setup after school <3 snowy — do you want to work on chopping the cabin atmosphere? i can copy and paste what i wrote:

“welcome to the playground of arcane! band together with an unforgettable crew of misfits on a three-act arc towards your goals – within this vivid world of imagination and camaraderie, you are bound to find your masterpiece.”

(226)

i know it takes up character space but i really like the introoo (its a reference to the first arcane episode lol) but maybe we can find a way to shorten all the adjectives i used later on? or i beg robin to let me keep it over 200 characters since we have less than 15 cabins now LOL

oh yeah also sibling relationships! i’ll let alana know — and then alana also reached out to me because mouse and ris were thinking about being quadruplets! thoughts there?

Yesss, okay! So Friday night for you all (Saturday morning for me) would probably work best for me, but Saturday morning for the both of you is also a possibility. And yeah, if that's too hard, soundtrack would be awesome!

And yep, I'll get to the cabin atmosphere! As for quadruplets, sounds chaotic, but if we do it well, it'd be amazing <3

Okay, so here's the 200-character version: “Welcome to the playground of arcane! Band together with an unforgettable crew of misfits and strive for your goals — in this world of imagination and camaraderie, you’re sure to find your masterpiece.“

Alternatively, we could cut ”of misfits" and keep a different word or two? Whatever you all think!

GUYS MY ARCANE VINYL CAME AND IM LITERALLY SCREAMING ITS THE MOST GORGEOUS THING EVER AND IT COMES WITH A POSTERRR

snowy thank you so much for doing the atmosphere - it looks great! i have a few suggestions but my brain isn't stringing words together for some reason so i will try again later tonight bwahaha

a silly thought i had about siblings - the theme song to arcane goes “everybody wants to be my enemy” …what do you guys think about having all enemies as relationships? i know tctwnw is allowed to have all allies and i'd definitely have to check with the hosts first to see if that's even allowed, but that could be kind of goofy

but also i have no idea how i feel about that idea because having no allies is kind of eek? but the vibessss and the referencesss

in terms of symbols, let me go do some hunting hmm….the gear is always a classic for steampunk but also idk if that's overused

also!! meant to mention this once we had the full team running - do you guys think we could have some kind of accountability thing? i think we're all pretty generally good at communicating w/ each other ahaha but it'd be helpful if we could just like know how we're all doing in terms of what's going on irl/make it easy to step back on hard days and whatnot. what the hosts do is we usually send our schedules to each other every week just to get an idea of how avaliable we'll be that week…and then something else i do w/ my friends is just tell them if i need to drop off the face of the earth for a bit or tell them i'll respond to something tomorrow if i'm stressed. anyhoo i'm like bouncing around a lot here bc there are a lot of things we could do, but basically i know that life is hard and inactivity happens but it'd be good if we could set up some kind of communication to make sure we're there to support each other before things get too crazy <333

Ooh, okay, so for relationships, maybe we do something like that, but we could have like. Enemy-allies? So we’re bonding over the fact that we want to destroy the other cabins, ahahaha (and obviously in a friendly way <3) but the cabins don’t actually like each other? I don’t know if that makes sense, but I can try to rephrase if necessary.

As for the symbols, is there a site where we can look for them? I’m happy to do some browsing for them later today, too!

And yeah, I definitely agree. Week-by-week sounds reasonable. As of now, I don’t have too many plans to my knowledge, but the 28th and 29th will probably be pretty busy, as there’s Thanksgiving and then my birthday is the day after — it’s still to be determined, but I might not be super active if I end up doing stuff with friends. I’ll keep you both posted on that and anything else, too <333

✸ - jinx kaboom?
⨳ - no clue just vibes
⬙ - divided world
ꗃ - i used it in my leader app and it just fits the vibes (secretss?)
⊹ - i don't really like this one lol but it's kind of like shooting targets
☯︎ - more divided world
✮ - vibes again

and then there are like gears somewhere

i literally just google “aesthetic symbols” and sometimes add a keyword like fantasy or steampunk or whatnot, here are just some things i found? i'm not sure if any feel right just yet so let me know which you like, which you don't like, and if you find any other ideas!

i talked to robin and she said she could be pretty flexible w/ atmospheres if we'd like to keep it at the 226 one, haha <3 but snowy i love yours as well! i'm wondering if we should emphasize the idea of memory making & friendship more? unless you guys think it's emphasized enough, haha

for relationships - sci-fi july 2022 (? uncertain on the year) did like all hostile neutrals, but honestly, i talked with the hosts and it'd probably make more sense to not do all enemies anyway because then our campers wouldn't have the experience of like, betrayals and whatnot :< but maybe we can make ‘everybody wants to be my enemy’ a slogan during cabin wars and like. betray everyone yayay!!!

also going to sort out with alana, mouse, and ris if we're all allies, enemies, whatever when i can - and then i'll ask zy what kind of relationship they want to have instead! any other cabins you guys want specific relationships with?

for my personal schedule for the next few days - i'll be busy until the evening friday (for our watch party!!) and then on saturday i have morning driving and an evening show…technically hanging out with a friend in the afternoon as well but i'll likely cancel that for the sake of sat prep. and then on monday i meet with a friend in the morning to early afternoon to work on psychneuro club but should be free for the later half of the day! (and then i'll start trying to do weekly schedule updates on monday)

updated the to-do list with things we should probably focus on getting sorted out - those being symbol, final atmosphere to submit, cabin thumbnail and a color scheme <3 we can figure out desc things later probably ahaha

lastly - on the note of visuals because i seem to not be able to stay on one thing! (if i'm ever talking about too many things at once, lmk) i was thinking about pfps - are either of you interested in that? i was thinking person-pfps could be really cool but i wasn't sure if either of you drew people, if not i was thinking about talking to veni, vi, crim, moss, or someone else about potentially seeing if they'd be up for making an icon creator or something since i'm pretty sure we're allowed to have anyone draw our icons. i'd also be down to do it as well, i'm just not sure if i'd have the time for that right now

OKAY THATS EVERYTHING thanks for bearing with my yapping ily
