I'm personally a fan of the Youtube series "If the Emperor had a Text to Speech Device", and moreso, the "mail-in question" episodes. An Idea came to me to replicate this formula for a one-off Story (which will be posted in Flood, as to separate it from a canon inRP story.) for the lulz (and more as I'll explain later).
Here's how It'll work. For the next two weeks, You can, in this thread, either inRP or as yourself, ask questions to my characters regarding them, their opinions on the situation in Sirius, or anything as long as it's within their purview - so don't expect them to know much about Junkers, unless you give some kind of exposition to your letter. If you don't know much about the characters, You can go for the latter, or you can do the same thing that the one guy did when he mailed a complaint about his food being cold to the God-Emperor, and write a letter that makes you look like a complete jack***/idiot, ask about a opinion on a story, or, pretty much anything, really.
Other than that:
Criticism about characters is welcomed, however, don't be surprised if you leave unconstructive crticism, that they return the same.
Metagaming is permitted in the following instances:
- You are writing as yourself, and not one of your characters.
- Nodoka or the others are asked a question about something on the forum or anything that breaks the fourth wall.
- You are writing as a character that has, for one reason or another "observed" an event that they should not normally be privy to - Leviathan from Auxshouldn't know about Finn McCool being a Infectee, but maybe some rando from IRG might.
This is non-canon - What happens here will not effect the actual RP environment.
You may ask as many questions as you wish, but I will most likely only answer 15-20 questions.
The Characters in the story will be: Nodoka, Honya, Pale Bride and Alexei.
Anything goes, as long as it's within the rules of the forums.
I know this is weird, but I want to use this as a way to develop my skills to improve my long-form writing - to get people interested, I'll be offering a prize of 20 million credits to whoever provides the best content - This could be either funny or interesting, either or, whatever I like the most, will win the dosh. I will announce who wins when the story is posted.
Furthermore, Since I haven't done this before, I'm posting it in General Discussions - if it should be in Events or something, please move it there.
I've edited the post a few times to clarify, change and revise rules. If there are rule changes or updates beyond this point, I will post about them.

Dear fast food franchise,
I hope this comment reaches you.
The burger I ordered got cold after I got home.
Replace it for me

OK, this has been bothering me since I saw you... Honya, do you dye your hair? Or did IRG do some crazy anime gene-splicing to get that? Could that be the secret as to where those other versions went? They couldn't get the color right? Meme lord Birdie

I realized, after seeing that I was running on no sleep for the past 17 hours earlier, that the metagaming rules made no sense. They've since been clarified.

Gonna bump this because I like to make Nodoka suffer would actually like to see this become a thing and Willow calling up the fast food franchise does not an entertaining series make.
So I'll just put something stupid down.
Dear Administrator-designate,
If you could change anything about the fashion sense of those around you, what would it be and why?
Can't remember if I was a Day late or anything - If you have any ideas for questions, feel free to post here. I'll be keeping this going until the end of the month when I write it up.

To Nodoka: Say you have a choice -- completely and utterly end the Nomad threat immediately, but kill all potentially peaceful Nomads in the process and lose all your closest friends. Or go a long and arduous way, possibly saving your loved ones, but with consequent civilian losses and infections? Provided you live to tell the tale in both cases.
