Plans and ideas:
As is so often the case, Pal is going to have a lot going on this month! He’s going to continue to have a ‘run ragged’ vibe, but he will insist that everything is fine, and also will try to be helpful in any way he can, especially as the snow piles up and things get weird. Most significantly, he is going to be spending the second half of the month investigating why even more doubles than usual are getting murdered. Additionally, he’ll be dealing with some John Gaius fallout and hanging out with his temporary substitute cavalier. Here are the deets as I currently have planned:
Cavalier swap: Camilla is going to be spending the month of January as a stone statue in the room she shares with Pal and Dax. While Pal isn’t super happy about this, he isn’t too worried, either. Please feel free to walk by his room when the door is open and see him talking to her immobile form. He’s that kind of weirdo. In the meantime, Gideon Nav is taking on ’make sure Pal eats’ duty cavalier-ing, which mostly means that she be lurking near him for most of the month.
Murder Mystery: As Rona noted above, John has decided to take out his aggression on the doubles, turning the snowed-in Staywell into the setting for an Agatha Christie-style murder mystery. While dead doubles are nothing new, these murders will be more unsettling and violent than usual, and Pal will suspect that they’re linked. While he will figure out pretty quickly that either John or his double is responsible, it will take him some time to figure out it was normal!John. I’m planning an ooc post with some additional details, and open post in the main comm that everyone can tag to come help investigate a crime scene or two. No need to “sign up” to join in, but if we haven’t talked already lmk if there are any beats you’d like to hit with this!
TLT is a canon (where some weird stuff happens): Pal is NOT going to be happy about the whole John-almost-killing-Dax thing! He won’t confront him immediately, but between that and the murder spree, his faith that the King Undying can turn it around will drop even further. He’ll also probably be learning some canon facts from Kiriona (Gideon’s double) that will both unsettle and intrigue him and help set him up for some future plot schemes.
While most of my focus is going to be on the above plotty things, Pal will also be available for a couple of chill or silly threads if I can get them in.
Are you planning to create a log this month? Not a normal one, but I’ll be putting up a post where folks can help Pal investigate the crime scenes of various murdered doubles.
