PLAYERPLOT PLANNING: HOLLOWS (with Gongenzaka)

Okay guys! So this is a post to hash out further detail from the rough soup I have for Gongenzaka's chunk of the Hollow plot (partly because the original hollow plotting post is a bit old...)! As noted in discord, it:

> Will take place on the Supermoon of the month- that's the 21st, so we have almost two weeks before I'll post it.
> Will center on Gongenzaka's grandfather (or....Grandpaw...), who will have determined that all Lycans just don't deserve to live, they're a curse on the world, etc etc and in true hollow fashion he's going for Gon big time.
> Lastly, he's going to be subtly targeting those that Gongenzaka knows.

So let's get started!

That last point is actually key, because the unique thing Grandpaw will be doing is spending the first few days before the Supermoon (I'm not sure how many days just yet, but definitely no more than a week) tracking people. He won't be hurting anyone significantly- it's actually not unlike with Acid Wire...

But more *controlled*. His point is to bait and taunt Gongenzaka with what *he cannot protect them from*. So this is a part where I'm SUPER open to ideas on what should happen, and to who! In addition to this, he'll be tracking Gongenzaka, but rather than directly harming him, simply leaving him with the feeling of being watched, tracked, or similar.

Around the Supermoon, this will all come to its head- Gongenzaka's grandfather will reveal themselves, in *daylight*, when Gon is typically unable to transform (Though I may check with mods to see if Gongenzaka can develop the ability to spur a daylight transformation after this)- and attack.

And that part will go in one fell megathread-type swoop; so it'll take a bit of organizing but is otherwise open to those of Gon's CR, + whoever wants to actually land a crushing blow on the hollow. Because that fight...is not due to go well. Gon is getting pummeled for starters, but also a lot of verbal abuse and trauma is going to be involved given the touchy subject (on Gongenzaka's end, anyway).

It'll also bring up Yuuya's scars from when Gongenzaka attacked him as a bear so....fun.

As it is! We'll need someone to come in and slam down the final blow, whether unannounced, or from the start of the fight.

With that in mind...comment if you want involved! It's mostly centered around Gongenzaka's CR, but it's definitely got windows for those who he doesn't know right now!

YUYA

Hello I am here

Like the top post says, the trigger incident for Gon's grandfather hollow is that Gongenzaka attacked and nearly killed Yuya when they were 11. It was overall an accident between two kids, but both of them wholly blame themselves for how much it hurt the other. Yuya generally tries not to talk about this because he doesn't want people to think poorly of Gongenzaka, but with him getting stalked around it's bound to come up.

When Yuya realizes what's going on he's going to try and glue himself to Gon's side because he IS WORRIED. But also without his familiar he has no fighting prowess so /fingerguns at Usagi lets milk that drama.

Otherwise this is post payback which means yuuya will have two familiars, although given the strain of that only odd eyes will hang out on campus sti some the second one is on call once Yuya has a chance to bond.

I've got to think about this because of put this guy through the wringer on hollow plots but I'd also still like things with Gon! If there were some way Héc could get a win out of it (maybe help Gon, or successfully avoid being menanced) I might be able to swing something easier, but for now, put me down as a tentative maybe!

I have no plans for this, but I figure there will be at least minimal involvement at some point by virtue of the roommate factor. Up for anything if wanted.

Don't worry, it's not like she's sliding down a path of feeling like she needs to silently sacrifice her own happiness to keep her friends safe!

EVERYTHING WILL BE AWESOME!!

Did you mean: yuya puts double time in trying to shoulder her happiness like atlas because he can't bear to drag down his friends to live a life of sacrifice like he expects to

IT'S GONNA BE AMAZING

Sounds good. I'm definitely up for having him help Gon out in a more down-timey moment. Bump me again in case I forget to check in closer to the date.
