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.
QUICK LINKS: SPRING 🌻 SUMMER ☀️ AUTUMN 🍂 WINTER ❄️

[He did fill out the paperwork for Cosmo Conservatory, making sure Nanaki had his say so both of them had equal power. What came for land and a house could be cone as well for Dojima and himself.
That didn't keep the blush from his face, or the feeling that was both tight and warm as if his core was being held in hand.]
We can, yes—
I think we should do it, it makes sense to. For us.
no subject
That's a weight off my shoulders...! I wondered if it was too... forward, I guess. But... I'd also been thinking of offering to work with you both anyway at the Conservatory, so. It just sort of clicked that maybe living there together made sense.
no subject
[Their house. Made together and done with how they want, rather than keeping within certain guidelines for someone they were only renting.
Of course there was a brightening to Turo's eyes at—]
You know you would be welcomed to work there, too.
no subject
[He couldn't help that blush at how readily Turo accepted that--]
There's already... plenty of detectives and investigators working the human cases here. Hell, we literally have a Sherlock Holmes wandering around, even if he's a bit off kilter and young. And we both agree even if we're technically Paladins, we're already not quite following their lead on things.
[Holding up one hand...]
...But we've already seen there's people willing to capture and hunt endangered animals. And as skilled as you are as a trainer, and as powerful as Nanaki is... Neither of you have police training for apprehension, beyond what I've shown you.
[But then, holding up the other--]
...On the other hand, I don't have a lot of experience with wild animals, beyond spotting a fox sometimes around that old shrine and chasing after missing cats and dogs. So, I'd have a bit of a learning curve myself.
no subject
[So Dojima was feeling a little like his work as a detective was unneeded; something to talk about later, perhaps, give him a bit of time and space given he had already been thinking of how to better apply himself elsewhere.
Listened all the same, head rested just against the side of Dojima's somewhat, eyes moving from one hand held up to the other as he spoke.]
Your ability to investigate, and spot people likely being where they should not, would be valuable. Like a ranger.
no subject
[Leaning back, thinking about it...]
I've listened in on and talked to hunters and trackers around here for what to look for before, in terms of animals or other humans being around the wild. Maybe I should apprentice under one for a while just to get some hands on experience before turning that into preventing those types from bothering the animals here.
[There, practical approach, right? That way he wasn't trying to push a round peg into a square hole, human investigation vs animal tracking...]
[Quiet for a second, and then--]
...I know you probably would be okay with this, but I still want to bring it up. If-- Arven and his friends showed up here... or my nephew, or Nanako... You okay with them staying here if they want? With us?
[Just trying to say 'I'm more than happy with you having your kid and my kid here when we get the house', whether he was actually 'Turo's kid or not.]
no subject
[Usually the first on the scene, if they could manage it, if something did happen out in the wild areas. Even ran reserves, overseeing everything there.
His head tipped a little as he listened.]
It could not hurt, and would even help you feel more comfortable in practice for the long run.
[... Turo leaned against Dojima just that little bit more.]
Of course I am, but I do appreciate the fact that you still want to be sure and have it said aloud- and that you are making it clear from your end as well.
