Echo Requests (retired)



Please fill out this form when requesting an Echo, then post it to this entry. The request will be dealt with as soon as possible.

When requesting an Echo induced by a past-life parallel/recurrence, please demonstrate clearly the similarity between the events, as well as the relation between the events and what is returned.

As of September 2013, Tier 2 Echoes can be granted once a month per character. Take care to specify the limitations and/or level of detail to the Echo requested! If you are unsure, suggestions will be gladly offered.

Reason for Echo: What caused the Echo, whether it be by a plot-related trigger or a canon recurrence. For the latter, this must be unusual enough to have been the first time the character has encountered it within Locke City, and strongly resemble a specific event from canon. Picking up a jug of milk from the store will not cause an Echo if it isn't any different than the times the character has done it before.
Type and tier: Physical change, power/ability, mental/memory, or item/creature. Tier 1 are the regular Echoes, and are typically a single memory/ability/item/etc. Tier 2 are essentially two regular Echoes rolled into one, such as an item and a memory or ability associated with it, or two directly-related memories, or so on. Currently only one Tier 2 Echo is allowed per month, so please be sure to note them somehow on your info posts.
What is returned: In the case of canon recurrences, these must be directly related to what has caused the Echo. Stronger recurrences = stronger Echoes.

Let's stamp it!

jilef;ajg;ah ACTUALLY i'm super sorry, I'm gonna be a jerk right now but I'd actually like to change what is returned in the second echo! I just decided that instead of regaining a lack of heartbeat, I'd rather have him regain his ghost form appearance sans outfit--so over time his hair will go white, his eyes will become an unnatural shade of green, and he will develop a white glow/aura.

i'm sorry, i only just realized that this would work better than the heartbeat

Player: Awe
Character: Miranda Atmiller
Reason for Echo: A discussion about a sudden outbreak of pale skin, and the possibility of having been indoors for a very long period of time - Mir's body was sealed for several centuries; when she was finally released from her imprisonment and rage-induced insanity her skin was a very light blue (as in these three icons, among others). In between AT1 and AT2 her skin tone returns to normal.
What is returned: Aforementioned extremely pale skin. However, unlike most skin-color Echoes, this one is reversible; a tan will make the effects unnoticeable (unlike a future skin-related Echo she'll be getting... and that one's going to be embarrassing for her to talk about.)
stealinghats: (AND I SAY HEYEAYEAYEAYEA)

[personal profile] stealinghats 2013-08-29 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Lavvy
Character: Victor/Vaati
Reason for Echo: Discussing his fabulous magical wizard hat with Miranda and also jokingly threatening to turn her into a rabbit.
What is returned: His fabulous magical wizard hat (without any of it's actual magical wizard powers, but still very fabulous).
argents: that bind us together, forever. (Default)

Player: kou
Character: banagher links
Reason for Echo: having a conversation with vanessa in a church after tamara's meeting.
What is returned: the memory of having a conversation in a church. CRAZY I KNOW. he'll remember the entire conversation (which is basically going over a tidbit-sized portion of the history involving the initial space settlers and what zeon meant to them) and that the person he was with identified herself as 'marida' when they'd finished talking.

Player: Mini
Character: Alexander Varista
Reason for Echo: Victor's post, in which his skin is abnormally pale and his hair is bleached, coupled with his comment about possibly turning into a vampire.
What is returned: That Alex will lose his coloring -- skin, hair, eyes and all -- in ratio to how hungry he is, and vice versa (regain his coloring in ratio to how well-fed he is).
toobig: (could it be worse?)

[personal profile] toobig 2013-08-29 09:22 am (UTC)(link)
Player: nor
Character: Bertholdt Fubar
Reason for Echo: Talking to Ryan and spending a lot of time with him as best friends/boyfriends like in canon.
What is returned: While making dinner with Ryan (cooking, like the cadets were made to do in the Training Corps,) Bertholdt cuts his finger really deeply and gets his minor healing back. Steam and everything, but only for things like cuts and bruises.

The events for these (and aave's) haven't been logged yet because we need the echoes okayed first BUT:

Player: Louise
Character: Annabel
Reason for Echo: Fighting with Alan SHE IS SUCH A RUFFIAN I TELL YOU
What is returned: This scene (up to here), along with the combat knowledge used there.

Reason for Echo: Getting pretty roughed up during the above fight
What is returned: A weakened version of her titan regeneration powers - just enough to deal with minor wounds, and only if she does it consciously. Just a few more episodes, mods. Just a few and then I can take half these spoiler bars away. We can get through this, guys. Together.

wirsinddiejager: (teen titans go)

[personal profile] wirsinddiejager 2013-08-29 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Aave
Character: Alan

Reason for Echo: Getting into a fight with Annabel like a huge loser
What is returned: His fight against the Female-type Titan up to the point where he gets a little knock on the head. He won't remember the context of the fight or Eren's thoughts about it, and will only be vaguely aware of being in titan form.

Reason for Echo: Getting roughed up during the fight
What is returned: A very minor version of his titan healing powers, barely enough to fix cuts and bruises.

Player: Lucy!
Character: Aria/Aradia Megido!
Reason for Echo: Mine exploration; she'll be getting down to the buzzing-in-the-head part (and may or may not be involved in a fight, that's still in the air, but either way).
What is returned: I'd like to return a portion of her telekinetic powers. She's shown here shoving a huge meteor with them; that is obviously not the level they'd return at, and she wouldn't have any great skill or ability with them; I was thinking she probably won't be able to lift anything mentally she can't lift physically, and won't really be very accurate and at the start will probably just spend a lot of time trying to levitate pencils with her mind. She'd glow that color red when doing it, if this is approved.

If this isn't okay, I can choose something else. :o

[personal profile] selfassured 2013-08-30 12:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Heather
Character: Derek Hale
Reason for Echo: The Mine exploration. Specifically the buzzing sound.
What is returned: I'd like to have his werewolf hearing returned if possible. Because who doesn't like being disorientated in a mine.
drama8om8: (i just want to hit every single eridan)

[personal profile] drama8om8 2013-08-30 04:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Louise
Character: Octavia Serket
Reason for Echo: Mine exploration funtimes
What is returned: Her wings. Which may be huge and bright blue and shed fairy dust like nobody's business, but they're not an instant masquerade-breaker: through means that are never actually explained, Vriska was able to hide them under her clothes even though that shouldn't be physically possible (and it's not just artistic convenience - it's explicitly mentioned in one of the walkarounds that trolls could hide their god tier wings and keep them a secret). She's also shown displaying them through clothes that really shouldn't be able to do so! So, uh. Magical wings that can be hidden or not as the bearer wishes, as long as they're covering them with something? Idk, man. Homestuck.

I think a lot more than absolutely necessary about the mechanics of this stuff okay don't you judge me.

Ideally she'll be able to fly with them (as in canon), but will be unable to do so without leaving an incredibly obvious trail of fairydust hanging in the air. Which means she'll be limited to only doing it in emergencies or in the privacy of her own room. USEFUL, WOW
