WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS



This posting is listed in big bold swirly letters on all Manta Boards:

AHOY! HELP WANTED. THINK YOU’VE GOT WHAT IT TAKES TO BE THE FACE OF ESCORDVI’S VERY FIRST ADVENT CALENDAR? POST YOUR GLAMOROUS PICTURES TODAY. POST THEM NOW!

A group of collaborators is looking to put together Escordvi’s very first annual advent calendar. For its inaugural year, they want to compile a collection of pictures of beautiful riftfarers to represent each month. These pictures can range anywhere from beauty shots, to thirsty body shots, to tasteful fashion poses. Anything goes!

Have your character post their own (or their friends, enemies, boyfriends, girlfriends, dogs) photos to this network post. NPCS can also be used to post photos. Then feel free to comment around on the photos with which month or season you think would suit them best. Or just comment about how much you like the photos. Who’s hot? Who’s not? Or about how horrified you are that someone posted yours! Any and all feedback is needed so they can create the best calendar ever!

At the end of the month, an advent calendar for 2025 will be created! If there are enough submissions, there will be multiple calendars so don't be shy or think you'll be left out! For ease of use, the calendar has been broken down into the four seasons so that multiple themed shots can be posted. Get posting!

PLEASE USE THE FORMATTING CODE PROVIDED IN EACH TOPLEVEL! Putting the character's name in the subject line is optional but helpful for quick reference. Any who don't follow instructions will have their comment screened so it can be edited. This is mostly to ensure images are not too large and stretching pages. Please try to crop images to best fit the code, especially long ones. The code will automatically resize images to a max width of 300px, so an image with a 3:4 or 3:5 ratio would be ideal.

Hmm, so you don't know anything about the new toys that showed up while I was working yesterday?

No, because you're the one who ordered them.

[How he does this with a straight face, nobody will ever know.]

Funny, that's not what Mehrak's log said.

I wonder who it was reading out loud to the cat this morning?
indispensable: (vexatious.)

Nobody, because it was a recording.

[It's all circumstantial evidence senior you can never catch him!!]

and why is it you recorded yourself reading out loud?

[HE KNOWS YOU SPOIL THAT CAT, ALHAITHAM.]
indispensable: (elucidation.)

I was testing the recording functionality.

[And the cat just happened to be there. Completely coincidental and not indicative of anything at all.]

For three hours on a book you've already read.

[He's callin' you out.]
indispensable: (consulting.)

[personal profile] indispensable 2024-12-05 10:02 am (UTC)(link)
Yes.

[There is nothing to be called out for when he has nothing to hide.]

Alhaitham, why are you allergic to admitting you like our cat?

[because this is getting SILLY.]
indispensable: (accismus.)

[personal profile] indispensable 2024-12-05 10:10 am (UTC)(link)
Obvious truths shouldn't need to be stated.

[What's silly is Kaveh wanting to drag this out in his opinion.]

Like how you are obviously her favorite?

Don't worry senior, nothing can ever replace you.

[When all else fails, deflect and embarrass.]

That is hardly my concern here. I am not jealous of the cat.

And why do you only call me that when you're being a menace?!
indispensable: (expounding.)

text; id: vulturvolans

[personal profile] indispensable 2024-12-05 04:20 pm (UTC)(link)
What do you mean? I've always addressed you with nothing but the utmost respect.

[Is he deliberately being obtuse here? Yes.]

[There is a very audible snort from where Alhaitham is.]

Is that a request for me to show my sincerity to you?

[Pillow: chucked.]

Hmmph! You better!
indispensable: (admiration.)

[No text response from Alhaitham this time since Kaveh's made his demands clear enough, and far be it from a feeble scribe like him to turn it down.

He puts down his shellphone, moves himself to where Kaveh is, and proceeds to show him the full extent of his 'sincerity'.]

[Rest in peace, Kaveh of the Kshahrewar, fucked around and found out.]
