BONUS AC
AC for the current month must be completed before requesting bonuses for that month. For new characters, AC must be submitted in lieu of the check in.
Each bonus is submitted as a bundle of three threads, which cannot be used for AC and must have a minimum of five comments from you. Threads have no expiration date and can be banked for the future, but each character is restricted to five bonuses each calendar month.
Bonuses must have an impact on the character, which can be as simple as a favorite food, or as poignant as a memento from a loved one. They cannot be a living creature. Bonuses can be common items (such as food, clothing, and tools) which are ICly requested by the character, or canon specific items (owned by the character) which are OOCly requested. Once general NPCs are unlocked, characters will ICly submit requests to the town head, who will work to acquire resources either from within the town or to be imported via train. Canon specific items will appear in a variety of ways.
Please use the following form:

Bonus request: Sacks of rice for all of these...
Impact: They now have eggs from rabid chickens so he can just ask for sacks of rice unless Lark is mad at him.
approved!
[ Lark can't read, so Hiiro's letter with its wilted animals feels sort of the opposite of an apology. But he's a postman and takes his job seriously so he'll still deliver Hiiro his three 20lb sacks of rice, in three separate trips to his house. He was a little peeved at the kidnapping, but it's having to lug all this around that makes him all /:< when he returns the third (and hopefully last) time ]
no subject
[He does not know how sad Lark is, but he does look tired... So the third time he comes over, he ends up handing him sweet iced tea for his efforts. It's not questionable at all. He worked hard against those bees.]
Here. You must be tired. If you had told me, I'd have picked them up at the post office.
no subject
[ He takes the iced tea, grateful to have something cold to drink even if it's winter and sweat's already dried from the back of his neck. He holds the glass with both hands when he's not sipping at it, so it doesn't slip between his gloves. ]
It is my job to deliver. Size and weight do not matter.
[ It should matter. He only has so much strength, but he's also not the one who sends these, let alone chooses how to package it. A pettier Lark might've given Hiiro his rice thrown in handful like you would beans at a demon, but that would be so many handfuls and he is tired. ]
no subject
[Surely pushing a cart around is better than carrying the sacks...
He doesn't know Lark is still peeved at him but that's fine, he wouldn't be surprised.]
no subject
[ He's a postman, Hiiro! His image is his cap and his mailbag, and he won't trade those away for anything. ]
Life is full of burdens, but in carrying them, you grow strong. ...is what I heard from Old Man Crow.
no subject
Then do you want to train with me sometime? If you are going to make heavy deliveries, then building up strength is even more essential.
[Or Hiiro can just not ask for sacks of rice...]
no subject
[ He's tired... he doesn't want to do any more work than he already has to...
But Hiiro isn't a postman, so ]
...why do you need to be strong?
no subject
[He doesn't hesitate to answer, thinking about it.]
If you have something dear to you, you would not want it to be easily taken after all.
no subject
[ Sometimes, people leave instead of being taken. Sometimes, you're the one being thrown away. In the latter case, he had fought back with all he had, but he never stood a chance. ]
But from what I have seen, you are plenty strong, Hiiro Amagi... I trust you to take care of you and yours.
no subject
... However, you are right. I cannot always tell what will happen to me, like coming here and meeting you. Yet, even if there is nothing I can do about that, there are other things I can still do.
Have you never felt like fighting against that, Lark-san?
no subject
[ Fate? Uncertainty? Misfortune? Please, he didn't even fight when Hiiro hefted him over the shoulder and hauled him to a stranger's house for tea and interrogation ]
no subject
[So all three, really.]
Nii-san never liked things like fate, so he always rebelled against it back home.
no subject
Did he succeed?
no subject
[Rinne was not as infallible as he once believed, but he is still the person he looks up to most. If there's anyone who can figure a way out of here, he's certain it is Rinne.]
