Honeymead Library

Post by Mora »

Hey guys.

So there was some hype about this on Discord so I thought I’d start a thread here as well. Mora owns Honeymead Library. It’s a public building she’s owned it for as long as we could own buildings.

Is there anyone that would use honeymead library first of all?

I plan to kit it out with a shop (there’s a terminal already), RA & anything I can think of that would incorporate a Library.

Mora is an old soul. Always has been. I did like the thought earlier that it could be held as a public record - or maybe that’s what I could use the basement for. A holder of information, per say.

Now I plan to make a business on grid for Mora to incorporate the library.

Is there anyone that would potentially want to write about it, or want a job there or anything? So we can then RPEE!

I am on a side note looking for someone to maybe put some graphics on the floor, kit it out a bit. Mora can pay :)

It’s going to be a work in progress as Karma will be a factor in kitting it out - it’s open to public so anyone can come in and use the facilities - I’d like to dust the cobwebs and get it used again! I plan to make a business post that it’s getting refurbed etc etc to collab IC trueness.

My end goal is to turn the upper level that was made as home living space into a sanctuary for vampires without sires that need a place to stay (that haven’t been adopted) or any blood dolls seeking refuge.

As it comes into fruition I’m sure the idea will become a painting at the moment it’s a sketch.

I’m just looking for people that would be interested in any of the above or anyone that would be willing to use the space

Oh, this is awesome.

I have a couple of characters that will use it - one being my pureblood who will practically live in it. She's a historian and obsessed with reading and books, lol.

I'm always game for writing, though, if you want to plot anything. :)

I can't wait to see what comes of all these plans!

As you know, I’m in love with this idea and so stoked to see this he library get her revival! (And Mora!) I defintiely have a few characters (more than :)) ) who would use the library and be interested in helping flesh things out. I have one that would be interested in reviving the fledgling help center that it used to be too! I’m sure someone is going to beat me to it, but I can help with business graphics! Hamlet is also an artist, which he’s going to be posting about soon. Somewhere. He can offer his talents to make posters or sculptures. He’s looking for that cash money!

Anyways! Vv excited!

Yay!

Thank you guys! Let’s plot words. I like words (still rusty but let’s plot!)

I’d love to write with all of you! Especially the historian *thinks on plotz*

But I’d also love to employ Hamlet to defo do some posters (and graphics) for the library! Maybe like a grand reopening!

Omg I’m so excited :| I’m literally about to burst.

Segreti might come to see if there were any good books on history, or the supernatural, or Harper Rock specifically. He's always loved study so it would make sense he'd check a library from the one place in the world he knows for sure is supernatural. (Human sorcerer)

Kyrie might also come, more just to find a good book. He's not a huge book reader but having something extra to do would be nice for him. He could potentially work there part time (IC'ly part time, I'm aware there's no such thing on grid). And he'd probably be good at organizing books and especially the computers since a lot of libraries use them more and more, and computers are something he's gotten pretty good at. (Vampire Allurist)

Tyler would as well, especially books on designs. Sort of stuff he'd use in blacksmithing or woodwork. He could be curious about Harper Rock history as well, his big reason was his interest in the peculiarity of Harper Rock. (Harpy)

Mason might come just for the piece and quiet but she also would be open to talking if it comes. Not so much literal quiet as emotional quiet. Libraries just have that kind of feel to them. (Mystic vampire)

Aurora would probably go in there often, she's an editor for a magazine and is likely found somewhere in a back corner to work on her latest piece, if not doing some sort of graphic.

I've looove for words.

Code: Select all

Mora is an old soul. Always has been. I did like the thought earlier that it could be held as a public record - or maybe that’s what I could use the basement for. A holder of information, per say.

Code: Select all

Is there anyone that would potentially want to write about it, or want a job there or anything? So we can then RPEE!
I was the one who kicked off the whole discussion as I play an investigative journalist who will be going around interviewing custodians and owners of important infrastructure throughout the city. It's an idea that I'm going to be slowly working on and which will consist primarily of a survey form that can get filled out to mimic the interview itself. I'm open to roleplaying around it once completed.

The goal is to create a public archive type selection of articles / blog write-ups where we can get a sense of community that I feel HR is lacking. Again though, I'm working on the logistics of this and at the time was simply asking on Discord who owned what to know who to reach out to once I'm set...

In light of Mesnier's occupation (and personality) however, he's likely spent a long long time at the library, especially if there is a public record there. I'd love to get a feel for the place. Especially its current state (maintained, deteriorating, perpetual renovations), whether there is a known public face of it (thralls, fake trail of false identities, shell corporation...) and its staffing (resolved by the business creation, I guess).

That said, if you make a business on grid for it I'd be interested in offering Mesnier up for the Clerical position. It'd be a fun way to approach the whole interview thing in the long run, especially if you want to showcase the changes that will be happening.

Hey guys!

Small update - Mora is back from the realm so I plan to start prepping now :)

Within the library on grid there is a terminal, a shop and magic shop on the ground floor - when I get paid I’m going to plan on purchasing a few items as well to make it homier (atm etc) I plan to get a crafting bench / ritual alter etc as well!

Then work on getting grid graphics

I plan to make the second floor public, and eventually get a forge etc and pop some hydro’s up there - I know Mora can see them but she’ll turn them into little ritual bundles for new starters etc.

A month or so and the library should be ready for its grand opening on grid as a more communal public area.

So excited, Bethy! I'm so glad you're back and bringing the library back and it's going to be running BIGGER, BETTER, STRONGER than ever! Thank you for the update! I'll be checking it out on the grid over time. I have a Telepath character (Trixie) and I'm sure she'll be making her way there very, very soon. She's about to get into more hacking and she's a nerd. I'm hoping that will open up into something for us to write, too! (I can't see it not.) Soon! Thank you for your hard work in breathing life back into the library!

Awwww shuuuucks :X

Tbf. I have you guys to thank more than anything. The hype around it and the want of use for it has helped so, nah you guys take the credit there im just happy to Oblige and it gives my character purpose which is lovely.

Yes. Mora is also a hacker so we should defo write I was planning on making script bundles too? Mora has a lot of V6 scripts - not a full set but I’m slowly making one so might offer script sets (basic ones) for new vampires / people wanting to try stuff out etc
