TWO YEARS AGO, A CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION GOING BY THE NAME TEAM IMUM WRECKED CHAOS ACROSS THE LAND, DAMAGING CITIES AND KILLING THOUSANDS OF CITIZENS. While Imum itself has long since been disbanded, however, the region remains broken: entire towns have been laid to waste and the Association struggles to find homes for those who were lucky enough to survive the attempted genocide. Reconstruction trudges on as usual... but with three factions - the Association, the corporations, and the people - each wishing to take the rebuilding of an entire region down opposite paths, how long will it be before Lyeant's last leg gives out permanently?

Care to hear about our lord and savior Operation: Mindcrime? In all seriousness: Hello, hello! I'm Pharaoh Leap – or just Leap – local head admin and rock opera enthusiast. On the rare chance you catch me in a time when I'm not bawling about characters entirely written into song, you may see me actually doing work around the site, like skinning, making too many characters, and encouraging others to also make too many characters. I only know how to write angst, and in no fewer than six trillion words an app or post, so if you like dying while reading like I like dying while writing, I'm the girl for you. ;o
Howdy guys! The names Astro and I am your resident Brit & Red muse (you'll honestly see me more on him than any of my other characters). I'm a moderator and my main job is to make sure everything is running smoothly so the Admins can focus on other things, you'll often see me within the apps and shops, etc when I'm not on Red. What can I say about myself? Apart from being a Red fanboy I like music and games and yaoi huehue, I honestly never now what to put into these sort of things but ohwell, I'm more of a "ask me and I'll tell" sorta guy. Anyway, from my personally I hope that you enjoy the site and what we produce here but also if you're new, please look around and if you like what you see please consider joining for rad plots that everyone gives! :D
Hey there~ Nano over here! I uh.. Wait, I'm doing this right, right? Bleh. So I'm a moderator over here - fun, fun - who kind of just.. Keeps an eye on everyone. You know, the whole app thing and what not. Uh.. Lets see.. When I'm not doing school work (because I may or may not be trying to be a good student) I'm probably storming up new ideas like events and etc. Or plots. Plots are always good, too. As you can see, I uh.. Have the horrible habit of making way too many characters. I swear, I was tempted with plots, ships and angst. It's like, the holy trinity. Uh.. What else is there about me? Oh, right! Please excuse my obnoxiousness. I'm just really loud in general so don't be surprised if I start screaming as loudly as I can caps. So yeah. Nice meeting you!

Walther’s eyes were narrowed and a bead of sweat ran down his face. His hand was almost about to shake, but he couldn’t allow that otherwise it would all be over. All the young man could really do was grit his teeth as his brow twitched a tad. It was only a little bit more, but it was almost over. He needed to endure, he needed to finish it but not rush it otherwise it would all come to an unfortunate end.
The time had come!
With that very moment Walther immediately raised his hand and pressed the final button and the match was one. It was finally over and victory was his, Walther had finally beaten the final boss. Fighting games were a pleasure to him and such he always went for a challenge. While he was one who didn’t quit, he did have to put a limit on his plays otherwise he might find himself broke.
For others he just looked rather serious and maybe even grumpy but playing video games were one of the very few pass times he enjoyed quite a deal. While it was quite an average pastime it was nonetheless his pass time. While he enjoyed playing at home there was something different about playing in the arcade. There was some sort of excitement that he quite enjoyed despite what was shown on his face.
A deep sigh was released as he entered his initials to seal his victory, topping the record of the game surprisingly. After such a long bout it was here that Walther realized maybe he was a bit too early when it came to reaching the arcade. An arcade was a loud and crowded place, but even though both those things are something he hated Walther still found himself enjoying heading to the arcade. His free time was usually not that open usually due to training and even the jobs he had to work, but he always did make time and it could be debatable whether that time was either wasted or not.
“Tsk where the hell is he?” Walther grumbled as he looked over at a nearby clock for the time. The time they agreed to meet up at had just arrived but even then he didn’t see his friend yet. It was odd calling such an idiot a friend. Loud, invasive and very annoying were all very minimal when it came to describing Tae Seung Kyon. The man pissed him off all the time just like the pink haired girl he also had the displeasure of knowing, but even then Walther always found himself hanging around the idiot.
A deep sigh was released from his lips and the silver haired male just closed his eyes and lazily scratched the back of his head. If he was going to remain about waiting then at the very least he should pass the time with a game. With that in mind Walther begun to walk towards the next machine, thinking about what to play. The arcade was not really the biggest and in terms of entertainment they usually didn’t just rely on merely their games. Overhead were some monitors where people could watch merely performances from popular celebrities and actors.
Walther never held any interest when it came to music and celebrities. In general he didn’t know any celebrities or any of the trends going on and he just did not care in the slightest. Normally he wouldn’t give a damn about what was on the monitors, but Walther paused the moment he heard a familiar song play. The performance of a famous pink haired idol played upon the monitors and Walther’s legs came to a halt. His hands rested in the pockets of his coat and his eyes immediately glanced up at the monitors up above. Watching that girl sing and dance with a smile upon her face was something that meant something special to Walther. Some could say it was quite uncommon for the usual deadpan male, but as Walther watched the performance he couldn’t help but smile a soft yet warm smile. In that moment he was a bit lost and his guard was now down.

Speak of the devil, and he’ll do more than come. He’ll arrive in a blaze of glory. Maybe even crash through the nearest wall like the Koolaid man.
In the case of this specific man, he knew fairly well that he was late. Was he sorry that he was late? But of course! After all, he personally hated keeping people waiting- but more times than not, it was pretty hard for him not to be late to matters and meetups every so often. Wanna call him up just to chat and stuff? He may be busy with rehearsals for an upcoming show. Need a bit of advice? Tough luck, ‘cause now he’s probably going around while busting his ass off with company documents and proposal, since - yes - the boy himself does know responsibility, and actually does know the definition of productivity in the form of working efficiently for sake of readying himself for the eventual takeover of his parents’ company. Wanna take another third shot to grab his attention, thinking that the third time’s always a charm? Yeah… Yeah, if you do that, then he’ll probably get held up by a small group of people that recognized him through a disguise that he slapped together before going out- given that he took care to disguise himself to begin with.
Which...admittedly wasn’t too often for the most part.
That being said, that was pretty much the reason why he was late that time around. Long story short, he may have gotten a bit lazy with his appearances, so he really just fixed his hair up how he normally did, slapped on a hooded flannel, a pair of jeans, and a pair of dark blue shoes before heading out- though not without his favorite, black hued face mask, of course. By his own standards - and by the standards of the public eye - he looked normal, so it was easy for him to be seen and recognized. Attention was something that he enjoyed for the most part, so it explained why he enjoyed his job as a performing idol so much.
Yet...at the same time, it was also why he found it difficult to roam around sometimes. Kinda hard to do that when people are spotting you and following you around for whatever reason, don’t you think?
Yeah. So, that was why he was late- and again, he was sorry about that, alright? For what it’s worth, he did what he needed to do as quickly as he could. Take those pictures, sign those autographs… The normal deal. He did all that as quickly as he could before continuing on his way to the arcade; pushing through the front doors and glancing around before jogging through a little bit. His ears twitched faintly while battling against the ongoing noises of the plethora of games going off around him; desperately and intently attempting to gauge the different sections that the area was divided into based on the types of games that the establishment provided. Fighter games in one area… Then the rhythm games, and all sorts of other things.
After a small while, he decided to follow his instincts and venture off towards the fighter game area- and rightfully so, too. That was why he took it upon himself to literally jump the same person from behind as soon as he saw him walking towards the games once more.
The ‘yeet yeet’ that he screamed while doing so was pretty much coupled with a headlock, as well as a noogie. Don’t mind his childishness.
After all, the childishness was what came natural to him- and he wouldn’t have had it any other way. At first, he started screaming some sort of incoherent nonsense as an extension of his own greeting, but not too long afterwards, Tae Seung Kyon blinked and looked upwards once he took note of the fact that the other had his own attention directed away; azure voids of his quick to catch sight of the passing images of a familiar young woman upon the television screens above. Yet again, his ears twitched in curiosity before he narrowed his eyes and grinned a little bit; loosening his headlock a faint bit for sake of leaning over the younger one’s shoulder to peer over at him.
”...Geez, Wally~. I’m late to the party by a little bit, and you’re already droolin’ over your lady love~?” he teased with a chuckle, poking him in an annoyingly repetitive manner. ”I keep tellin’ ya, bro~. If you’re that head over heels for her, you gotta do more than stare at her through the screen~.”

He screwed up quite a deal and disaster occurred the small moment that he let his guard down. The one person he was waiting for had finally arrived and it was at that moment he did wish that the idiot had come even later. The very cry that the idiot let out immediately sent a shiver down the silver haired male’s spine as his eyes widened. There was no real time for him to really react nor for him to merely move but before he knew it he seemed he was immediately put into a headlock and found himself getting noggied. Completely deadpan as he was noogied, he closed one eye as the other began to narrow and twitch a bit as the feeling of annoyance began to build the moment he heard the idiot of a pal speak further.
The poking began and his other eye closed as well as the brow of his eye continued to twitch. His teeth were gritted a bit and as usual Tae had already gotten him to the point where he was just far too annoyed. Walther’s relationship with Tae was quite an odd one to be sure. While yes Walther was beyond annoyed and usually pissed off at the loudmouth and thought of him as an idiot, in the end he still found him a friend and perhaps even a very close friend. Perhaps he wouldn’t admit it but he saw the idiot as a brother in a way.
“You idiot, how many times am I going to say it to get it through that thick skull of yours?” Walther said casually pushing him away, albeit very lightly to the point that it really wouldn’t move him much and more so just an action to get Tae to quit poking him. “I’ve absolutely no interest in Estelle Vesperia at all....yeah sure she makes good music or whatever but unlike you I dislike the flashy and noisiness that you idols and your fans hold….Now quit trying to hook me up with whatever girl you see me looking at!” Walther said with a grumble. In a way he was telling the truth as he just found the ear shattering noise of fans such an annoyance and the flamboyancy of Tae was another bother. He was a total opposite of Tae and preferred a quiet and calm life. In a way he did also lie as well. He honestly didn’t care about Estelle’s music itself, but he did like seeing her putting her all into it and he did like seeing her doing something she clearly liked. He had already accepted that he was incompatible with Estelle and if Walther was to continue walking away from his past it would be best not to walk back to the one link he had to his past.

[attr="class","mouths1"]Okay, pushing? Come on, Wally. Pushing him? Now that was just plain rude- and in response to said pushing, the gijinka himself merely whined at him while limply allowing himself to be pushed away for a small while, though was quick to cling back onto him even tighter the moment he stopped doing so. Yet again, he slung his arms over his shoulders and practically hung from him as he slouched backwards in attempt to lazily and oddly drag his friend around. ”Come OOOOON, WALLY…!” he said within an extensively drawn out whine; reaching one of his hands up all the while to pat the other’s face in a shameless and nonchalant manner. A smile had been plastered upon his face by then, and although it was shielded over by the common face mask that he wore across the lower half of his face, expression was somewhat obvious by the manner in which his cheeks rose, as well as how his eyes narrowed. ”I know you’re bullshitting me, bro~! The bullshit’s written all over your face~! Just accept it~!”
By the end of those words, the showman himself finally took care to release Walther, though now before reaching his other hand up to slap either side of his face gently from behind; quickly slipping and hopping a few feet away with another burst of hyperactive laughter before spinning around. Almost immediately after doing so, he turned to face him - complete with that signature grin of his - before shooting his arms up and swiftly pointing both of his hands to the very same television screen that he caught the neighboring gijinka looking towards prior to his arrival. ”I see the way ya look at her, bro~. Ain’t no denying that!” he went in, winking as he began skipping over. He hooked an arm around the man’s shoulders before pulling him closer; azure voids of his directing themselves back upon the screen as the same woman in question surfaced upon it. ”You got that clear interest, dude~. And I keep tellin’ ya~! You know you got a clear connection to her through me- since we’re in the same group, ‘n all~. I could totally hook you up with a meeting.”
With those words, he merely turned his head to glance over at him. He stuck his tongue out and poked his cheek softly.
"And you can tell me you're not interested all you want, man," he started off again, "but I know that look you give every time you see her~. Who knows, too~? I know you hate all the glam and the noisy business and crap, but this could legit be the start of something hella nice if you just stopped acting like someone shoved a stick up your ass~."

It was truly a mistake to push the idiot aside and Walther instantly realized it. Walther realized that this wouldn’t deter the idol in the slightest and instead it would just make the idol more excited and aggressive. Immediately Walther’s eyes widened as he was grabbed once more and with it he clenched his teeth and narrowed his eyes. It became a struggle to move as Tae began to try and move him around and in response Walther merely resisted to move as he held his ground and cringed a tad the moment he heard Tae’s loud voice. “The only piece of bullshit around here is you goddamnit” Walther grumbled.
The grip Tae had on him was eventually released and Walther let out a deep sigh as he believed the annoyance to be over, but Walther was quickly proven wrong. Though it was gentle, Walther eyes still flared up the moment he felt the slap on his cheek. Fist clenched Walther quickly raised his fist and swung it the moment that happened but it was almost like Tae read his mind and bounced away from him causing his fist to hit empty air. Though an act of violence Walther couldn’t say he was actually trying to hit the idiot and in a way knew he would dodge. Though annoying Tae was still a good friend and he wouldn’t truly try and hit him unless the idiot really did do something immensely stupid.
Letting out a tsk Walther placed his hands back into his jacket pockets and glanced up at the screen before he was immediately grabbed once more as he was told to focus on the screen once more. He spoke of noticing Walther held interest in Estelle but Walther just let out a tsk as he looked to the side “I don’t know what the hell you’re talking about…” Walther said but what Tae said next caused Walther’s eyes to close.
He was reminded that Tae and Estelle were both in the same group and that sheer fact reminded him how close Estelle was in creeping back into his life. His teeth were clenched and it truly looked like his usual anger, but this time it was more so just frustration and perhaps even a tiny bit of fear. He already accepted his past and he already moved on from it so why did it have to march back into his life once more?
His eyes opened once more and looked over at Tae with a more deadpan yet annoyed look on his face. “Tae why the hell are you so interested in my love life? I’ve no interest in a girl who prances about like that especially in outfits like those. I’m sure as hell that we don’t have anything in common I like I said I just don’t want to deal with all that glam and noise” Walther said closing his eyes nonchalant as he shrugged his shoulders “Come on you idiot you know that I’m always a buzzkill so just accept it…” Walther said.
