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.

Character: Kotetsu Kaburagi
Reason for Echo: He's my partner. I'm putting this in as a canon parallel echo bc even though he already knew Yuji and Nick were partners, he wasn't really particularly close with either of them pre-network, and this is the first he's getting a taste of the emotional significance of the term "partner" over and above mere friendship. Essentially, the way Yuji emphasizes that Nick is his partner in this thread is what triggers the echo, rather than the actual fact of their partnership.
Type and tier: Mental, tier 1
What is returned: The feeling that there is something deeply, personally significant about calling someone "partner" that differentiates them from a "friend", and also a strange sense of lack--as if he once had someone he called partner, but doesn't anymore.
I hope it's okay to do the second part in a tier 1 echo, because awhile back he'd echoed back the feeling that someone was "missing" from his life, which i'd like to tie to this (or at least, have this echo remind him of that one if that works better!)
