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.

Where does he like to go…? ] I guess there’s the place with the mushrooms that Rowan-san took me too, and Nanamin is on a beach floor… and the food?
no subject
The place with the mushrooms, though. There's a slight lift of the brow. ] There's a mushroom farm here?
no subject
Nodding, he grins. ] Yeah! It’s not really a farm, though? It’s hard to explain.. We can go and I’ll show you the one I exploded.
no subject
[ What he does know about their teacher is that he lives for spontaneity and hates the mundane, such as routines. Anyway, about the mushrooms ... ]
Exploded ...? [ What. ]

[ Yuji already seems as if he’s perked up a little, especially with the distraction of showing Fushiguro around. He pushes himself towards the door, apparently ready to rush off right now. ]
I punched it. Hard?
no subject
Are you punching things for fun now? [ he's so silly ]
no subject
[ Don't look at him like that :/ ]

[ Megumi does like nature, so he is slightly excited to see some mushrooms. ]
no subject
[ Yuji tugs them up, heading out towards the elevators. ]
Have you met anyone else cool here?
no subject
I haven't met a lot of people.
[ And does Yuji expect him to? He's not the friendlist person. Oh wait ... ]
I think Gojo-sensei might be seeing someone. [ lmao ]
no subject
[ THIS IS BEFORE HIS OTHER THREAD
LAUGHS
He skids to a halt. ]
Like... Dating?

[ they really are gossiping as they walk into the elevator, huh. ]
I met someone who referred to him by his first name, and seemed to know about me and Tsumiki.
no subject
[ He hasn't meant anyone else who calls sensei 'Satoru', after all... ]
I think she comes from a world where those things don't matter as much, so maybe it isn't like that.
no subject
[ Megumi's pretty good at reading people, so he trusts his gut about this. ]
no subject
[ Or maybe she’s actually their new mom… Huh…
Yuji hums as he walks. ]
I don’t know. I like her, though. She’s really nice.
no subject
... She is nice. [ She gave him a blanket and pillow when he was taking a nap.
Ding! The elevator arrives at the mushroom floor (???) ]
no subject
She is! She was really kind when I came here and had no idea what was going on.
[ Sumina for mom 2k24. ]
Here we are! See, mushrooms!
no subject
Is there anything special about these mushrooms?
no subject
[ Yuji blinks owlishly. ]
Nothing weird happened last time I was here.
