Hey City. Do you know what you want? I know what you want.
You want...big, scary apocalypse genies to hassle you /)_(\;; (Right?) Of course that's right!!
Okay, explanation: in canon, this crazy sonuvabitch grants characters' deepest, most sincere "wishes"--and almost compulsively at that, by any and all means necessary.
But don't think of these wishes as, like, "I wish I had some ice cream right now..." They're more like, "The one thing I want in life is to be able to die with my wife
whom I met when we were both out for ice cream." Or whatever. Remember: these are their deepest, most sincere, most secret wishes.
Now, annoyance at being in the City (as opposed to, you know, that other city that always seems to be the center of the universe--look, just ask Godzilla if you don't believe me), Subaru's nostalgia pants, and Nataku's Kazuki dance will only keep this compulsion at bay for so long. He might very well start feeling these wishes and wants in the City too--especially since this is basically Apocalypse City (stupid Clock...trying to put him out of a job).
But this canon ability to know or understand a person's deepest desires at a glance has obviously been dampened down by the City's...Citiness. And, more than that, frankly, it's kind of...info-moddy--at least in theory and explanation. Yeah, okay, NGL, it's pretty info-moddy. And infomodding is
never cool.Still, it's a nifty sort of trick to be able to play with, don't you think? That's where you come in!
To avoid info-modding but to still keep this opportunity to plotting and weirdness and creepiness and wish-granting open...
I've got a shiny brand new permissions post located right thisaway~If you would like such things to take place, please feel free to comment there with any and all information, or even just a note to hit up and hassle your character (because, heck, I'll just deduce things out if that's what you'd prefer and play it by ear).
That's all the obnoxious tl;dr from me for now!
