THE LAST REQUIEM↴![]() CY-Ren's planning of a charity concert has been well received - news of bomb threats and harassment from fans have painted her as a victim in the media spotlight, and her generous attempt to make amends is getting plenty of attention. She's been busy spinning things for as much focus as possible, and the threat of potential danger has the news focusing in on the proceedings. The date is set for Day 27 in carnival time. You won't want to miss it! ► BUILD UP: In the last couple days before the concert, CY-Ren will be reaching out to all of her Harbingers, regardless of where they might be at the time - yes, this means that even if you ran off, she'll come to find you! (Unless you're in the carnival like Taako, then you're fucked.) She'll tell you that her plans are coming to head, and that if you help her with one last task then the planet will be on its way to destruction. There are multiple ways you can aid her: you can help amp up her performance as evil backup singers/musicians, or you can set yourself up around the perimeter at specified locations, using your sparks as a beacon to her magic. She's certain that she's perfected her musical formula, this time - when the concert gets underway, all those present with the capacity to be a Harbinger will awaken, and the end of days will begin. ► THE CONCERT: By the time the concert arrives, the Star Guardians will have the idea that there's something unnatural about the way the new Harbingers were made - this isn't how it usually happens, and that sets them apart from someone like CY-Ren. Maybe that means that they can be pulled away with less drastic measures as well, given that the Void didn't have the full right to their souls in the first place. Anyone coming to help (and those who aren't Star Guardians will be encouraged to come as well, given that if they are making attempts at friendship, super powers aren't required) will gather in the area early, determined to stomp this one out before it can get too far. ► HARBINGERS: This is when they will be encountered by Harbingers guarding the perimeter, as well as a small army of void creatures defending CY-Ren's last performance. Star Guardians will become aware through the power of Creation that the Harbingers on the perimeter must be neutralized in order to disrupt the concert - CY-Ren is feeding on their negative energies, and it will make it too dangerous to attack her directly. Confrontations with any Harbingers can be worked out on an individual basis via plotting - just make up a location around the concert and have your Harbinger providing a beacon of their own design. As the concert ramps up, however, the excess of Void energy will cause the newly made Harbingers to destabilize - mentally or magically, their powers will be harder to control, and their negative emotions will be running wild. However, with that instability, there is also room for a breakthrough - for someone to blast the darkness from their Sparks with friendship and light. Now is the time to reach out. ► STAR GUARDIANS: If a Harbinger is successfully turned away from the darkness, they will briefly regain control of their Sparks, and be able to manifest as a Star Guardian for the first time. This will allow the Guardians to outnumber CY-Ren's forces. Their look and powers will still be based around the same Spark, but purified by Creation and aimed towards positive things. Time to win. ► DANCE OFF: Given that the Spark of Music and the Spark of Dance are colliding, it is perhaps not a surprise that this all manifests as a big ass musical number. As CY-Ren and Noa have a music battle, everyone present (even if you aren't a Star Guardian) will find themselves magically inspired to join in. You can dance, sing, or anything in between - the more people who support Noa's side, the stronger she will be. There will be a megathread for this part of the conflict, and at this point any unturned Harbingers will awaken and be able to turn their Sparks towards the light. As CY-Ren begins to lose power, what the players do with her will be up to you. |
Carly Nagisa
The plan is in place, but it's not yet time to leave for the concert. Carly, for her part, has been rather dedicated to the cause-she's even landed herself the chance to sing on stage with CY-Ren, something she's been gushing in private about when she hasn't gotten equally excited about whoever else in her age range she'll be singing with.
So the mind-altering spell CY-Ren cast is probably broken, as much as it's difficult to tell when they're in the same room.
Regardless, she's got something else on the table this time. Mostly articles of clothing-the singers need to dress for the occasion after all-but there is a set of assigned lyrics that she's occasionally practicing and...well?
She's...Actually pretty good.
Whether that's surprising or not, who knows.
[All Eyes On Me (Jinx, Yuugo)]
It's the heat of the moment, truthfully-the void is intense, and more than anything Carly wants it all over. She's sung her lines, and she's singing them now, but when Guardians get a bit too close?
Her costume has never looked better, and the strings of her wings light with violet flames containing pitch black cores, a bow in hand as she takes aim-
And fires.
She recognizes at least one of those faces coming her way-coming dressed in the garb of a Guardian, light shining off them as she flings arrows of literal flame at brilliant crystals and the red hair beside them. Jinx, she expected perhaps-she'd fought them once before, shouted at them when the Guardian had tried to stop her from heeding the Void's call...but this? But him?
"So even you!" she finally shouts, breaking song to snap through tears. "You couldn't help yourself, could you, Yuugo..! You coward..!"
But who is the coward, who truly is the coward, she wonders...[The Light, It Shines | GUARDIAN TIME]
...The coward had been herself, but she would run no longer.
It is with an explosion of light and a heartfelt embrace that she revives-her spark, her heart, beating loudly. The light filling her body and flowing out from her wings once again, scattering the strings that would bind her to the earth. She wears scant anything-some sort of wrap that 'ties' between her breasts with a star, something closer to a swimsuit bottom instead of any sort of skirt, given her tail acts as one on its own. Her feet are coated in brilliant feathers, and her wrists and ankles adorned with simple bracelets, ears matching with the earrings that have appeared there.
And Carly takes to the sky, a brilliant aurora condensed into one place, raising her now white and gold bow upward. Fate?
Hah. "If this is what you think of fate," she shouts, addressing the Harbringers remaining, and the crowd potentially within their thrall, "THEN LET'S SEE ABOUT READING YOUR FORTUNE AGAIN..!"
It is with cheer that she draws, and fires- a brilliant arrow of white-gold fire into the air, splitting and raining downward. It certainly won't finish things. But those hit by the fire will notice something. A sensation of hope, of strength-of determination to move onward, because they aren't done yet..! They won't be done until the Void has been pushed back, so push onward! The fire fills her targets with energy-and whoever happens to look her way will be greeted with a smile, a wink, and a wave.

As in arrows, made out of fire.
Again, it would've been neat if she wasn't the one being shot at.
"Come on, snap out of it. You're better than this. Better than the Void."

Punctuating his words is Clear Wing's roar, the dragon back to their former shining glory. Still can't fly even as a Guardian, but that's what familiars are for- to be partners and not servants.
Dodging the arrows isn't an easy feat when the creature you're riding happens to be a big and wide target.
Pre-Game
Passing by the room Carly has set up shop in, Tanyuu pauses for a moment to listen to her singing. It's not something she hasn't heard before--with how often Carly was working back at the Carnival, it would be impossible for Tanyuu to have not heard. But it still makes her pause, listening with the barest hint of a smile.

It's when she opens her eyes that she jumps, realizing then of course, that someone is there. "MNHH-!" OH. OH GOODNESS. She chokes, shaking her head.
"AAAaaAA- T-Tanyuu! ...I didn't expect you here." Or well, she expected her eventually but.
Surprises.
Shush!

Well, there's not really a point in that now-far as she's aware. "It's still sneaky though-!" SO!! SO THERE.
