Happy February, folks! The hotel is chugging along as it always does and nothing really seems that out of the ordinary, actually. Mr Bennet is at the front desk as per usual, greeting new guests, checking out old ones, generally being mediocre at his job but there's something a little... off about him this morning. A little more Springtime focused. Is it the suit? No, no, that's the same as it always is. Is it the face? No, Mr Bennet's face is unable to be perceived by eyes as per usual. No, it's the —
The bunny ears?
HOP TO IT
It seems Mr Bennet has developed a pair of bunny ears and a tail overnight, but he's not the only one. Every staff member and guest of the hotel will find that they have grown a pair of animal ears and a matching tail when they wake up that morning. It's nekomimi time, y'all! But not just neko, characters will find themselves with all categories of ears and tails. Cats, dogs, rabbit, deer, fish. Whatever animal best suits the characters are what they'll find themselves sporting.
For all intents and purposes, these will be part of your characters bodies and real additional limbs. It will hurt if someone hurts them and they will bleed if someone cuts them. There will be some added bonuses as well as characters will also take on the traits of the animals they become. However players want to interpret this is up to them — it can be light like a cat person just being more aloof or heavy like a spider person having multiple eyes and limbs. Whatever is most fun for the player and most hectic for the character, of course.
This effect will last till the end of the month.
Of course, an additional note: For characters who already have animal ears and/or tails — they will either keep those ears and tails and develop more traits of that animal. Or they can become something entirely different for the month. Player preference!
ANIMAL CRACKERS
Mr Bennet has found this to be hysterical though so he has set up a stall in the main lounge that's advertising animal crackers. They're a little less cracker and more cookie though, and larger than the traditional animal cracker. They also come in all shapes and sizes. If you can think of the animal, you can have an animal cracker with it. There is a dog cracker. There is a whale cracker. There is a spider cracker. All kinds of things. Even fictional animals, like gryphons and dragons!
The only catch is — once your character eats the cracker they will become that animal entirely. This is probably tipped off by the bunny rabbit hopping around the lounge in a little hotel jacket, huh. Thanks Mr Bennet. The effect of these crackers will last as long as the player prefers and characters are free to eat another cracker and become another animal afterwards.
One thing though, as the animal, characters will still be able to speak in animal form. So there's that!
The animal crackers will also be available till the end of the month.

...But Nanami can climb just as well as he can, so that's not gonna work. Instead, Gojo hastens his pace, hooking a sharp right down the next hallway, his fancy footwork an attempt to momentarily mislead Nanami about what direction he's going. ]
Heheh, you're getting a little too close for comfort there! Nanamiiiii!
[ To punctuate this, he offers a flick of his tail as he barrels forward. He promised he wouldn't teleport, but not that he wouldn't use his technique at all...so he has Blue up his sleeve if he needs it. ]

The fancy footwork does throw Nanami off for a bit, making him pause a little before taking that right and continuing forward to chase after Gojo. He dodges some of the guests they pass by, almost getting tripped up on an alien's tentacle on the way, but he has Gojo's scent in his nose and it's hard to lose it now. ]
This is what happens when you float everywhere, Gojo-san. You lose your knack for running.
[ Meanwhile Nanami is much more used to this because it's not like his technique is anything fancy. He still has to put in a lot of physical effort for it. ]

So, time to work smarter. ]
Ehehe, what will you do if you catch me, huh? Pick me up by the scruff of my neck?
[ As the pass through a hallway lined with ornate and very expensive vases, Gojo uses just a smidge of his technique to pull them down into Nanami's path as they run past them. Sorry for the mess, Mr. Bennet... ]
