Does your character want to have a wish granted? Then please, fill out this form before talking to Yuuko ICly about it, as I'll need to know what price to have her ask beforehand. Also, I might have to submit your wish to the mods in case it needs their approval first, so bear with me.

<b>CHARACTER'S NAME:</b> <b>CHARACTER'S JOURNAL:</b> <b>CHARACTER'S WISH:</b> What your character wants from Yuuko. Please keep it succinct yet informative so I can decide whether this is within Yuuko's capabilities or not. Furthermore, keep in mind your wish might also need mod-approval, and they will need to make an educated judgment. <b>WOULD THIS WISH AFFECT THE CITY IN ANY WAY?:</b> Again, this is mostly for mod reference, though it might come in handy for myself as well. <b>CHARACTER'S PRICE:</b> Not what your character is /willing/ to offer, but what you, as a mun, think would make for an equivalent exchange-- really, you guys know your canon better than I do. <b>PLAYER'S CONTACT INFO:</b> For future plotting and/or discussion on the wish to be granted. AIM/MSN preferred, but I'll go with whatever rocks your ship.

Yuuko is pretty much a canonical godmode in the sense that she knows a lot about events and people alike, and playing her requires a bit of metagaming.

In that vein and so I won't step on anyone's toes, here's a permissions post with a few basic questions about your character(s). Please feel free to answer as many as you'd like and, alternatively, to leave a comment with what you find important to know about your character(s) and what you're okay with sharing, even if it's just a few sentences. Anything is appreciated, really. ♥

<b>CHARACTER NAME:</b> <b>CHARACTER JOURNAL:</b> <b>CHARACTER'S SPECIES:</b> <b>DOES YOUR CHARACTER HAVE A WISH/TRUE DESIRE?:</b> [Please note that CLAMP has different concepts for a "wish" and a "heart's true desire". A wish is something circumstantial, which usually doesn't break the most sacred of universal rules and thus can be obtained; it can range from materialistic wishes (such as asking for water in a desert country) to personality-focused requests (such as getting rid of a vice, a bad habit or even a particular trait) and even those dealing with time and space (such as crossing dimensions and even turning back time, though the latter is treated as a taboo). A heart's true desire, however, is something transcendental, the thing a person truly wants the most. It's prone to breaking those sacred rules, as the only "true desire" that has been mentioned in canon deals with bringing a dead person back to life.] <b>WHO ARE YOUR CHARACTER'S IMPORTANT/MEANINGFUL PEOPLE?:</b> [Close friends, family, enemies - people your character has strong feelings for, whether in a positive or negative way.] <b>WHO IS YOUR CHARACTER'S MOST IMPORTANT PERSON?:</b> [aka "number one person" aka "most precious person". In CLAMP-speak, this means the person your character loves the most in a romantic fashion. Yes, yes, my canon is cheeeesy.] <b>DOES YOUR CHARACTER HAVE ANY STRONG PERSONALITY TRAITS?:</b> [Pretty self-explanatory, really. Is your character dripping with evil? A compulsive liar? So innocent and naive everyone wants to shield them from the world? Two-faced? Completely emotionless? Whatever it is, chances are Yuuko will see right through it.] <b>DOES YOUR CHARACTER HAVE ANY SPECIAL POWERS OR ABILITIES?:</b> [Again, self-explanatory. Magic, supernatural powers, bending, a shiny geass-- really, anything an ordinary person does not possess in your character's canon.] <b>IS THERE ANYTHING ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER'S PAST/PRESENT/FUTURE YUUKO SHOULD KNOW?:</b> [Does your character have a well hidden secret? A tragic past? Great ambitions? Do they carry a curse? Is a grand destiny waiting for them? As a fortune-teller, Yuuko can probably see it all if you give her a name or a date of birth-- and don't be surprised if she throws cryptic hints every now and then. This will also come in handy if your character ever requests an official fortune-telling session from her.] <b>ANYTHING ELSE?:</b> [Go wild!]

[Here is Yuuko, looking so very not amused. How many times have we gone through this again? AND HOW MANY TIMES DID SHE GET NO BOOZE?]

I shouldn't even bother with warnings this time, should I?

[Here is a witch.

Here is a witch, with her chin on her hand and looking so dashing! Except that's more like bored, annoyed and not at all amused. Why, you ask?]

Well. This place sure knows how to spoil the fun of Halloween, doesn't it? [Yes, this is clearly very Serious Business. It's only one of her favorite times of the year!]

They had better still give us a treat. I'm about done with all the tricks.

[And with the double entendre right there, the feed is off.]

[When the feed opens, there's an upwards view of Yuuko, as the communicator is lying on her lap. There is no sound for a long moment but background noise, the rustling of fabric and the slightest whistle as the witch draws smoke from her pipe, in and out. Once she does speak, though, her tone is much like the same - distant, barely an octave above a whisper.]

Who grants the wishes of the wish granter? [A pause as she seems to consider this. Except not.] I was once asked that, some time ago. By someone who held the answer all along.

[The wooden pipe is brought to her lips once more for a slow, deep intake of tobacco, smoke then released in a continuous cloud.]

There does come a time when the pupil surpasses the master, huh...?

[Watanuki had not disappeared, whereas Yuuko could never return. In the end, he had granted her wish much better than she ever did his.]

Running a little late this year, are we? [Said in a low tone, followed by a barely audible snort.] Even so, you're still awfully predictable.

[But, of course, that doesn't last. Switching to her usual loud mode!]

Well! You'd better have brought in only the cool kind of people this time around, to compensate for the extra waiting~! ♥

( Off the network;Collapse )

[For the longest moment, all that can be heard in the background are whispers-- the rustling of hair in the wind, a piece of cloth swooping over skin and perhaps, just perhaps, a deceptively low sigh that was barely there. And then the clinking of ice on glass can be made out in the background, before Yuuko's voice makes itself known.]

Discedo. Keep in mind what it is you treasure the most, the next time you leave the city.

[And just like that, the feed is off.]

[When the feed opens, all that can be seen is a view of Yuuko's apartment, looking as though a hurricane had just dropped by for a friendly visit. If you're not familiar with the witch, she will tell you she's doing spring cleaning; if you know her tricks, then you can figure out who will actually do the cleaning here. Spoilers: he's a stupid four-eyes.

If you pay close attention, you might hear the eventual "Where is it?" and "Not here!" and "Nada!" and all possible variants of distress from someone who can't find what they're looking for. Considering the mess in the background, it's hardly surprising. But suddenly--]

FOUND IT!

[Give it a little longer and there will be a rubber duck pressed up against the screen, staring into your very soul. But just for a moment, as soon enough Yuuko is rubbing it against her cheek, an overly exaggerated display of fondness.]

Ah, how I have missed you, Ducky-chan! Mr Dolphin has been meaning to meet you for a very long time now! [Yes, it's a plush dolphin you see in her other hand. One that goes way back and most certainly has a meaning. And when she turns to the camera again, she's grinning like a little kid.]

Watanuki! Which one do you want to be?

[The following is spoken into the good old megaphone Yuuko hasn't used in a long time. Haven't you all missed it?]
[She then puts the deafening device aside, though still talking in a louder tone than usual - one that is definitely overly excited, too.]

Today we say bye-bye to Winter and give our warm welcome to Spring! If we make her happy, then she will grace us with many wonderful blessings~!

Watanuki! We need cooked beans! We can't have mamemaki without cooked beans, now can we?
