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.

Hm, why not?

[seasaltkeys]

[Roxas. Does not have an answer for that.]

Dunno. Just.

[There is a long pause after this as Roxas tries to figure out his words.]

This is just kinda new to me.

[pinksidekicking]

Me too. I've never had siblings before.

Still, I think we're doing pretty good already.

[seasaltkeys]

yeah, it doesn't seem too bad.

So you can decide people are your family?

[pinksidekicking]

Hey, when's your birthday? If you don't have one, you can choose one. That's what I did.

It's worked for me so far! Some people are born with family, and others make one by picking people.

[seasaltkeys]

I don't have one, and it feels kinda weird just choosing one.

[And well, circumstances of his birth are also complicated.]

I guess I kinda have to pick.

[pinksidekicking]

Is there a date that's important to you? Maybe one where something good happened that you want to always remember?

[ Nimona doesn't even know if she was born the way humans are, so same hat, Roxas. ]

[seasaltkeys]

[Roxas has to think about that one. He used to count days, but it's easy to lose track of things.]

Not really, that I can think of.

I mean, there's good stuff that happened. But I don't know what day it was or anything like that.

[pinksidekicking]

[ It really is. ]

Then just pick one that's easy to remember. Like double numbers.

6/6, 8/8 - whatever.

[seasaltkeys]

I guess. I'd have to think about it.

I kinda don't mind having a birthday
