It's my 5th HiO anniversary, I'm carrying on the tradition of celebrating by giving out loot to younger years who need a boost!

The giveaway portion is over, but y'all are more than welcome to share your stories, I enjoy reading them ๐Ÿ’™

Reducio
The first dozen 1st or 2nd years to reply will get 1 galleon

There are rules, which might seem absurd, but I want to make sure I'm sharing with folks who 1) need the help 2) are more likely to stick around
Please make sure you:
  • are registered in the official Index
  • have less than 50 galleons in your Total Wealth (this is the amount shown on your profile, it includes the worth of all your items)
If for whatever reason you don't want the galleons, you can still fill this out for fun :butterbeer: cheers

All you have to do is answer a few questions:
โ€ข What is your favorite setting (the Courtyard, Great Lake, a class, store, etc)

โ€ข What do you enjoy most about HiO so far?

โ€ข Tell me about one of your favorite scenes or IC/OOC interactions.

โ€ข What is your favorite setting (the Courtyard, Great Lake, a class, store, etc): prob the library! So many different threads and options for threads!

โ€ข What do you enjoy most about HiO so far?: the community!! Very welcoming and helpful, and I can make friends so easily :)

โ€ข Tell me about one of your favorite scenes or IC/OOC interactions.: currently my whispers of the dark thread! I havenโ€™t really gotten to show off Alyss being much of a troublemaker, so getting her to accuse everyone of attempted murder was delightful!

โ€ข What is your favorite setting (the Courtyard, Great Lake, a class, store, etc) Library too haha! It's a super place for threads !

โ€ข What do you enjoy most about HiO so far? The art if I can say it. Everyone has their talent in drawing, graphism, etc...

โ€ข Tell me about one of your favorite scenes or IC/OOC interactions. My favorite OOC interactions are with @Elisa Wagner; we understand each other well, we talk french and she's so nice!

โ€ข What is your favorite setting (the Courtyard, Great Lake, a class, store, etc)

The Grounds! Mainly because the description makes it feel so expansive and relaxing?

โ€ข What do you enjoy most about HiO so far?

I love all the different ways to get involved! It feels far more interactive than many of the other places Iโ€™ve roleplayed on, and I love slowly unlocking more and more places

โ€ข Tell me about one of your favorite scenes or IC/OOC interactions.

IC interaction between Aodhan (my character) and Gekko via owls. One of the funniest threads Iโ€™ve done lately.
Also his interaction with Ula during summer camp. Those two are so entertaining together imo. (And I can list tons more but Iโ€™d be rambling at that point.)

โ€ข What is your favorite setting (the Courtyard, Great Lake, a class, store, etc) I'm going to have to say the grounds, I feel like most of my threads seem to be there.

โ€ข What do you enjoy most about HiO so far? Some of my favorite things about it are actually the planning I do outside on my google docs. I get to build a world for my character, and then come here and live it.

โ€ข Tell me about one of your favorite scenes or IC/OOC interactions. My favorite scene is probably Me and My Shadow and the Pink Lady. I suppose it's porbably because there is only so much school threads I can do, only so many meet, and greets. But for a thread, there was a whole plotline, and whole story I got to be a small part of.

I am very wealthy now and no longer need your galleons old man, but I played last year and want to followup the tradition again this year ๐Ÿฉท
โ€ข What is your favorite setting (the Courtyard, Great Lake, a class, store, etc)

I believe last year I said the Lake, but these days it's definitely the Ravenclaw Common Room. I love my birds, and I love our home.

โ€ข What do you enjoy most about HiO so far?

The people. I've met some of my favorite people on this Earth here, and I cherish the friendships I've cultivated in my year on site. You all have made me both a better writer, and a better person to boot.

โ€ข Tell me about one of your favorite scenes or IC/OOC interactions.

God this is hard. I have such a fondness for our first thread together Peri. Who would have known what goofing around with a spy ring would lead to us building together? I also loved every second of the '24 Spring Ball, and I think some of my best writing was in my Vestiges of Daylight thread with Avery Leveret. What a blessing it is to not even be able to choose.

Donโ€™t need the galleons, though Iโ€™d like to take part in the tradition.

โ€ข What is your favorite setting (the Courtyard, Great Lake, a class, store, etc):
Uhhh. Like, I enjoy the stores and the prospect of you buying things, but I also like the Entrance Hall and the Badger Coomon Room. The latter is a great place for begging socialisation here. Common rooms, I mean. Iโ€™d add the Abandoned Classroom to the list, a great place to cry when you need to.

โ€ข What do you enjoy most about HiO so far?
The people, the stories, the relationships and the code. Basically everything.

โ€ข Tell me about one of your favorite scenes or IC/OOC interactions.
IC: Probably my two interactions in the abandoned classroom, one with @Ruby Night and the second with @Abbey Thompson. They have made Eugeniaโ€™s storyline grow a great deal, and Iโ€™m very grateful.
OOC: The things all us spilled tea maniacs would say to each other in Spilled tea during the Summer (top raving period), and the things we say to each other in the Alien Inasion forum in the badger common room. A lot of stupidity, a lot of fun!

My diligent collections have left my pockets bursting at the seams, but I wanted to do this again since I did it last year and it's a great reflection on all the fun times I've had on HiO
What is your favorite setting (the Courtyard, Great Lake, a class, store, etc)

I'm not sure really! I believe several of my threads call the grounds home, and really I enjoy writing there, there is a lot of creative freedom for such a vast area. Plus there's a lot of room to fly brooms there :D

What do you enjoy most about HiO so far?

The community, by far. It's inspiring and heartwarming that this place has brought so many people together and such strong bonds have been forged through the words we pen. I've met some of the most kind, caring souls here, and some of the most wonderful wordsmiths I have the pleasure of writing with. I am delighted that I managed to meet and grow to know the lovely people that I now call friends, and I am so thankful for our friendship.

Tell me about one of your favorite scenes or IC/OOC interactions.

I really can't choose, but an interaction that is quite funny given what happened just a few months after IC is Mending Bones, Mending Fences with Rebecca Lark. Bex is more talented than I could adequately describe, and being able to write our toons together has brought me a lot of joy, as well as building friendship with her. I find the aforementioned thread particularly humourous because as much as Bex and I tried to get our toons to a place of amicability, we were soon derailed by Spring Ball '24.

I've also really enjoyed writing my iNPC with Koko Riddle's in New York, New York! and We're Not In Kansas Anymore. I love the duck lads and the bond they've been able to form, and Koko is such a joy to write with.
