NEW MOON #9: PART 1

[There's not much time yet. You won't need to worry about this place for much longer. Very soon you won't need to think about the way the clouds cling to the mountains, the tall pines, the songbirds in the morning, the deer grazing in the distance. You won't need to see your friends every morning at breakfast, you won't need to share a cabin with four other people, you won't have to rush to plan dances. Sometimes, when you're feeling wistful, you think that this place might miss you as much as you'll miss it. It's not as comforting as you want it to be.

After the sun's glow fades from the horizon, you open your journal to see a strange new entry. It has no name, and the heavy text looks as though it was burned into the paper. If you lean in close, you smell woodsmoke. Once again, it's the Anonymous Writer.]

ANONYMOUS POST RULES
  • In anticipation of how big the anon post gets, we're still splitting it in two. This post is for all the usual anon business, while the Writer's Question will be in a separate post.
  • We're posting this early to allow all time zones to get involved before the post blows up, but please work under the assumption that the anonymous post does not actually show up until night falls!
  • All comments that are made to this post are completely anonymous. There is no way to track for certain who the author is.
  • Don't log out of your accounts for this. Just comment as normal, and everyone is just going to have to pretend they don't know who you are!
  • Comments appear as generic black ink in a uniform font. Characters can tell where one comment ends and another begins, though.
  • If your character does feel inclined to guess who the author of a particular comment is, be fair. Don't abuse OOC knowledge to out anyone. On the other hand, if your character's not good at obscuring their identity, they could be found out and that's just how the cookie crumbles. At least they'll always have plausible deniability!
  • The anonymous post happens every month on the new moon. Any character who had a journal and attended Gooseberry for the past two years would know this happens. Mr. Calderon-Boot notoriously hates it.
  • Have fun, let loose! If you have any concerns or questions as the post unfolds, please contact the mods.
