KUNZITE

[dramatispersonae]

The small cabin is no longer empty; instead, it's full of simple wooden chairs and a few tables. One table is stacked with baskets of ripe fruit; as for the others...

On one, scrolls bearing messages appear out of nowhere. On the other rests a single scroll and a quill pen to write on it. The top of the scroll reads, "Tell me what you believe in." The rest is empty space, waiting to be written on.

[drums his fingers restlessly on the tabletop]

As usual, what an open-ended question.

Re: DISCUSS

[onherhands]

Questions like these... well, I think they're supposed to make you think deeply about stuff, right? Like in school essays.

Re: DISCUSS

[adropintheocean]

Yes, but at the same time, I wonder if it wouldn't be ideal to present something simpler than a whole essay.

Re: DISCUSS

[onherhands]

It says a short description, so I guess we don't really need to write an essay.

Re: DISCUSS

[adropintheocean]

I suppose...

What are your thoughts, then?

Re: DISCUSS

[onherhands]

The answers that sound really cheesy always get the best points. We should say we believe in love, friendship, and in each other.

Re: DISCUSS

[adropintheocean]

...is it an honest answer...? I'm not sure I believe in love, as a pure concept.

Re: DISCUSS

[onherhands]

Ah... I guess that's true.

I don't think I believe in those, either. They just seem like the kind of answers to give.

MESSAGES

[dramatispersonae]

Characters who have reached their happy endings or who are Legacy-questing elsewhere can send a single message to the current team saying what they think the team should believe in.

Re: MESSAGES

[sightunseen]

Ah... is it supposed to be a team message...?

Re: MESSAGES

[adropintheocean]

Yes, that's correct. Good afternoon...

Re: MESSAGES

[sightunseen]

Good afternoon, Red.

Well, if the question is "what do we as a team believe," that's easier to answer...! "What does each person on this team believe" is harder, of course.

Re: MESSAGES

[adropintheocean]

Fortunately, it's the easy option.

Re: MESSAGES

[sightunseen]

I suppose... "Kunzite believes in becoming a place where all of the people it cares for can be comfortable in the best way possible for them,"... would be how I'd describe it. Of course, it has been some time.

[her tone is a little teasing at that last sentence though.]

Re: MESSAGES

[adropintheocean]

[:T T: :T. acerbic]

It hasn't been that much time.

Re: MESSAGES

[sightunseen]

Do I hear agreement? Ah, you are settling in well! ♥

Re: MESSAGES

[onherhands]

I think so... it would be easier that way.

Re: MESSAGES

[sightunseen]

So what do you believe...?

Re: MESSAGES

[onherhands]

I'm-- um, I don't think it's a good answer.

Re: MESSAGES

[sightunseen]

No...?

Re: MESSAGES

[onherhands]

I'm, um, weird like that.

Re: MESSAGES

[sightunseen]

Ginger... even if it's not the answer we use, I would love to hear what your answer is. I don't believe you are weirder than many of the rest of us.

SUBMIT

[dramatispersonae]

As a team, submit a short description of the ideals you hold by 11pmEST on Monday, December 1st. (You can submit it earlier if you want, so long as you've gotten input from as much of the team as possible.)

KUNZITE'S IDEALS

[adropintheocean]

Kunzite believes in respecting and supporting each other, even when we might not agree, to come to an ideal compromise for everyone. We create a space where all of the varied people it cares for -- no matter their background, their species, their outlook, their memories -- can be comfortable in the best and truest way possible for each of them.

Kindness is the absolute basis of the Kunzite ideal. Whether the ideal is demonstrated between those who know each other well, between friends or lovers -- or between those who are bare acquaintances, the team tries to treat each other, and those outside the team, with kindness and consideration, as best as each of them know or learn how to do so.
