[OPEN] Ilda’s April Catch-All
Characters: Ilda, you, your bibiru, anyone!
Date: April 16th to 30th
Location: all over Aifaran
Situation: selfies, putting up advertisements for/with Yato, affinity things
Warnings/Rating: none, but will update when something comes up
A - IT’S SELFIE TIME! (open)
[ Perhaps her friends would regret encouraging her. Or even simply giving her the idea in the first place. But Ilda, barely a month in Aifaran, has decided that she has a life goal: to be queen of Xa Xa! As she’s told Bakura before, if she’s gonna be laughed at anyway, why not make money out of it and have fun at the same time?
So she’s been exploring the city, during various times of the day (and night) and in varying weather conditions, looking for interesting and unusual things and places and even people to take selfies with. Rooftops! Under bridges! Under tables! Beside a stranger’s feet for his mismatched pair of socks!
She’s not even asking permission. She just comes zooming in, a quick clickity click, then poof! Off she goes, laughing at her own selfies!
They’re not even pretty. Some of them are blurry. Most of them either have too much of her face, or too little of it. Like just her forehead. ]
B - DOUBLE TROUBLE (Meta 1, open)
[ Wait, is that Ilda again? What does she want now? Another selfie? And why can’t she use her own yimo for that?
But now that you think about it, the first Ilda actually seemed kind of... off. By Ilda standards. This one looks more like her usual self - bubbly, chatty, with no care in the world.
A wild Ilda approaches! ]
C - EXPLORADVERTISING (closed to Yato)
[ Ilda remembers what she and Yato are supposed to be doing today, but she can’t quite recall if he’d said that he would bring the posters. So she’s taken the initiative to procure some customized ones! They’re basically large printouts of a really adorable cat poster she found on Xa Xa, and she’s handwritten Yato’s name and a message on each of them.
She sticks up one on a random wall, then leans back to look at her work, quite pleased with herself. Fitting, eh? BELIEVE! IN YATO! MAKE A WISH NOW! ]

Still, she’s no techie, so as soon as he finishes, her questions start coming in rapid-fire succession. “Wait, what did you do? Which buttons did you press again to focus? Do I have to press them in order? Is there a time limit when I press them? Are there other parts of the screen I have to touch to focus things? What’s zoom? What kinds of lines and shapes should I have in my pictures? Do I have to arrange people, too? What about the sky and sea, is there a rule for them, too? Like how far the things and people in the picture should be from them? How about colors? Colors are important, too, right?”

...This was also why he made a terrible teacher.
"Maybe you should see if you can find a book on composition. There are dozens of methods people use to improve photos like that, and like most arts, there are just as many opinions on which are the best."

She makes a mental note to just go through the steps again later, although she’ll have to be extra-careful not to send her pictures to the entire city again. Maybe she’ll just use something else for practice. Like cats. Everyone likes cats, right?
At Conan’s mention of a book, though, she can’t help but make a face. She’s never really liked books. Too many words. “Um, just one more question?” she starts with a sheepish smile. “Are there books with pictures instead of words?”
