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.

[There's a sheepish grin on his face as he pauses.]
T-Though actual battles are a little more scarier. You gotta put your actual life on the line over duelist pride!
no subject
[He's just checking.]

[He doesn't act like the type, but whenever the switch was flipped... He has the potential to become quite a competent leader.]

[He takes a closer look, before laughing.]
But you're definitely not as scary looking as Raiden can be.

[This blows his mind since he thought that he was literally the only shogun out there!]
Okay! Spill the deets, dude! What's this other shogun like?
[He's got to size up his competition!]
no subject
She's the god of thunder and eternity that rules over the nation of Inazuma. Many people fear her, many admire her. I can only say that she's not that scary once you get to know her better, but you really don't want her as your enemy.
[He's not going to into detail of how Raiden was in the past and how much distress she's caused to her own people.]

[Yeyasu folds his arms with a confident look on his face. This guy clearly doesn't know what he's getting into.]
Don't worry! I don't mind a strong woman who can carry me in her arms. I'll be the sun to break through that thundery disposition.
[That's his way of saying: "I can fix her." (No. No he can't!)]
no subject
I see.
[He crosses his arms over his chest.]
I guess if you really want to die you can give it a go. [Would Ei even realize what he's trying to do? Would Shogun attack him? Would Sara get mad that someone is disrespecting her god?] ...Yeah, I can see way too many ways this could go wrong.
no subject
[He's acting like he didn't want to put himself up as bait. Don't mind him getting teary-eyed.]
C'mon! You could be a bro and tell me some of her likes and dislikes! That way, I wouldn't screw up royally...!
no subject
[Aether just shrugs. Does he really look like that?]
You're forgetting one thing - she's not even here. [For now, anyway.
He sighs.] But if you really need my advice - you could practice combat. Just in case.
