[nostradamnit]

Player Name: Solstice
Plot Summary: Nostradamus, in his time caring for the Little Catenas, befriends an NPC who's helping organize the PC gardeners to their tasks. He treats this woman with kindness, and as the month progresses makes a point to ask after her as if she's a Real Person. Yes, she's an NPC, but his soft Heart is leading to him showing her the respect he'd show any lady at court. He makes sure to come back to the Catena she's tending in particular, and chatters warmly at her about the neon plant he's received as payment and how it's thriving.
Character(s) Involved: Nosty
Outcome: I have no clue yet!
Timing: This month, when Nosty's feeling affectionate
Resolution: You tell me!

[nostradamnit]

Player Name: Solstice
Plot Summary: Svelte Formal Dance, optionally a masquerade or an event where formal attire arrives from each character's world (please let me dress Coda in shiro ouji attire properly just once).
Character(s) Involved: Probably initiated by devs/doubleneon/NPCs.
Outcome: Probably at least one drunken brawl before the end of the night.
Timing: Prom season? I don't know, I'm just throwing out ideas.
Resolution: The dance is over.

[zunge]

Player Name: Numi
Plot Summary: Glitches cause people to become older, younger, bigger, or smaller.
Character(s) Involved: No one in particular. Whatever you come up with that makes sense I guess?
Outcome: Characters would temporarily find themselves older or younger, or if the same age, just suddenly much larger or smaller physically. Think like Arietty size small all the way up to large person from One Piece size large. It could affect memories if the player so chooses. Characters may experience difficulty buying age-locked products or entering age-locked areas thanks to NPC gatekeeping or NPC harassment in which NPCs suspiciously know some (at least partly) factually accurate details. Tiny characters may require assistance getting around. Large characters may have difficulty getting inside buildings.
Timing: Whenever is most convenient and not in conflict with something else just as demanding. Lasts like a week or two.
Resolution: Maybe the only way to fix it is something inspired by the mushrooms and potions from Alice in Wonderland or like... coin operated fortune tellers machines like Zoltar from the movie Big.

[senseloss]

Player Name: Solstice
Plot Summary: Glitch Cocktails at Partycrash--there's free cocktails on offer, each based on different characters. When you drink a character's cocktail, you feel their emotions.
Character(s) Involved: Devs? doubleneon?
Outcome: DRAMA!
Timing: When convenient.
Resolution: Everyone wakes up the next morning with a hangover.

just putting all these in one comment i'm sorry

[psychometries]

Player Name: britt

Plot Summary: just some ideas for glitches!

a glitch that gives characters the urge to be close to others e.g. cuddling, holding hands, [redacted], etc - could be in a food/drink or just in general

tl;dr memshare glitch, but basically a glitch that traps people inside places that recreate a memory that belongs to a character

similar to memshare, but a glitch that turns a part of the city into a character's home world that they can explore

a glitch that makes people want to tell only the truth or blurt out their deepest, darkest secrets - again, could be in a food/drink

extreme weather glitches e.g. snow day!! or a heatwave and oh no! the heating/aircon is BROKEN so it looks like we'll have to cuddle for warmth/strip down to survive the heat. or a time where it rains nonstop and characters are trapped outside, things like that.

a glitch where text/video/voice messages are randomly sent to the wrong person. tl;dr misfires

a glitch where two people are stuck to each other for a period of time, like they're handcuffed or tied together and it can't be broken

Character(s) Involved: everyone!
Outcome: much cr had by all
Timing: doesn't really matter, just throwing out ideas here!
Resolution: nope

[skjoldpike]

Player Name: Kazie
Plot Summary: Glitched bootlegs for all! So some characters discover that there are actually knock off versions of their canons available for streaming/reading/listening/viewing/playing/etc in the city, but they don't recognize them for what they truly are because they're so horribly done? For example, Game of Thrones errrr The Great Dornish Bake-Off has an anime opening, is only one season long and is entirely in Valyrian, the fight scenes involve lightsabers because neon, and there's an obligatory musical episode. (PLOT TWIST: ROBB WINS!!)
Character(s) Involved: $doubleneon?
Outcome: The players get to have fun trolling their characters without actually canon puncturing them. The characters get entertained or confused or both?
Timing: Anytime! It could be "just there all along" or "just a matter of time before they get taken down for copyright claims," lmao.
Resolution: They go viral... and then they're just gone. Or, like slime tutorials, they just keep reappearing under a different title. The Hunger Shames? The Walking Ned? How Your Mother's Brother Met Your Mother?

[spidersgeorg]

Player Name: jabbers and lady
Plot Summary: It Is With A Heavy Heart I Report The Robots Are At It Again - chop shop is going to encourage tailgate to wreck stuff with his super strength because nothing is real and breaking stuff is fun. tailgate hits the base of a building which falls over and then dominos into a whole bunch of others that takes out a couple of city blocks while the two look on in abject horror at how quickly this escalated. unfortunately, generating so much destruction particles and effects means the FPS of the surrounding area takes a hit as well as latency. upgrade your brain computers guys, jeez!!
Character(s) Involved: tailgate and chop shop, anyone who wants their chars to be affected by the latency and FPS issues
Outcome: rubber banding, stuff randomly undoing itself or having a very belated response to actions like a cup floating in the air for a few seconds before going through the breaking animation, freezing up during frame rate drops
Timing: next few days or so, if convenient
Resolution: things would calm down when the destruction has settled and go right back to normal when the area is reset with the backup in the cache
