    Respect my authority.
    Don't take the artwork and claim it as your own. It is not yours, it's mine.
    Don't start arguements here. If you're upset, take it to PMs or.. well, I don't know. Grow up?
    Don't spam. Don't advertise. Don't be obnoxious. I have very little patience with that kind of behaviour.
    PM all complaints to me. No need to bring that in the thread.
    Read the entire first page before asking questions.
    Don't ever rush me. I will bite your head off.
    Be nice to newbies. Honestly, manners aren't overrated.
    Upon losing a flatsale/auction/raffle, don't be rude.
    You must roleplay, but no playing God.
    No refunding, unless Vis makes an error (unlikely).

What do the pills do?
They take care of your insanity by giving you an imaginary friend.
Where does this take place?
In the world of Gaia. The Happy Home itself is located somewhere between Durem and Barton Town, the patients all have their own homes. The rest of the details are left up to the roleplayers. (because I honestly can't be bothered right now.)
How do I get my pills?
Through events, raffles, flatsales, auctions, dice games, guessing the right number of beans in the jar, etc etc.
How much does a pot of pills cost?
It all depends on the mood Vis is in. Sometimes 50g, sometimes for free and sometimes winged anklets.
Will there be cosplay types?
Yep. Probably event-only.
Can I order a custom?
No, please no. Not right now, at least. Check back later.
Will there be marriages/breeding/partnerships?
Yes, there will. Male & Male, Female & Male, Female & Female can have children and get married. Check the relationships post.
How much will this cost, then?
Undecided.
I don't like the way other people are treating me in the thread.
That's not a question, but I see what you mean. Not everyone can get along. PM me with your complaint and I'll try to resolve this.
I lost at an auction/event/raffle due to <unfair factor>!
Did you really? Well, PM me about it and I'll have a look.
How much do I need to roleplay to be considered "active"?
TWENTY FOUR HOURS A DAY. HEKEKE. Kidding, of course. I'll be expecting you to fill in a report at least once-ish times a week. More would be super, less will be frowned upon. How big you make your entries is completely up to you. Roleplaying with other patients is highly encouraged.
Do I need to inform you if I'm going on holiday?
No, I can smell it when those kinds of things are about to happen. [/sarcasm] I'd appreciate a heads up.
Can I work for you?
Perhaps. PM me if you'd like to apply for a position.
Can other people post in my thread?
Sure, if that floats your boat. Your thread, after all. If people are posting without your permission, please handle it in a nice way.
Can I do my RPing through PMs?
Yes, but I wouldn't if I were you. You see, once you take it to PMs I can't change your "friend" to what you're RPing about. Your call, I'm just sayin'.

User Image A dusty, bloody map of the Happy Home. The colours have faded and all the small details have eroded away. The small rooms belong to the patients, middle-sized ones are probably staff rooms and the huge areas are storage areas. Special rooms have been numbered, here's what they are:

1. A large greenhouse, re-decorated like an old tea room. Various exotic plants remain, taking over the iron furnishings. The greenhouse is the only room at the back of the Happy Home that provides access to the garden.
2. The 'galley', is what the residents seem to call it. Breakfast, lunch and dinner is served here. It's large and the furniture consists of long tables and uncomfortable benches. It has all the charm of a grubby prison cafeteria.
3. The kitchen. Patients usually aren't allowed here. Home of chef Brian.
4. Staff lounge area, where they can relax on comfortable couches and watch some TV. Strange detail: There are three large, grimy fish tanks hidden behind curtains, containing nothing but weirdly glowing sea-weed.
5. Doctor's office. Lots of scary needles and things are kept inside the cabinets. This is where most of the patients come for their treatment.
6. Entry hall. Very big, made to impress. The walls are lined with dull mahogany.
7. The solarium. For more details on this room, keep an eye on this roleplay. Ruri and Vis will guide you!
8. Recreational area. Sunny, because of the large windows. Also filled with boring tables, but it somehow seems more comfortable than any other room in the Home.

User Image Stage 1
You've been admitted to the Home. You're now in possession of some kinda of pills/potion, which you are forced to take every day. As time passes, you begin to see things move at the edge of your vision. It's not uncommon to feel sick during this period.


User ImageStage 2
You're currently being followed around by an odd, see-through creature. It fades in and out of existence as you go about your daily life. Although slightly disturbing, it isn't dangerous. You could name it, if you'd like.




User ImageStage 3
The imaginary stalker has turned into a being that resembles a human. It isn't solid, and it has purple skin. You might be feeling uncomfortable during this time as it keeps a 24/7 watch on you. It talks, it walks and it needs to be entertained. The age of these beings ranges from ten to eighteen.

User ImageStage 4
Your friend has turned solid and mature, overnight! It seems to be unfazed by this change, but you might take some time adjusting. The creature now has the power to affect "real world" items, so be careful with where you take it. Before you know it it might've knocked over some shelves, or something..

User ImageSo, even after reading all this, you still want to get "sane" by obtaining some of these pills, eh? You must be nuts. There are currently no pills/syringes/potions/poisons obtainable through any legal manner.

    The next (first?) flatsale is scheduled is meant to be happening in March or later.
    The next full-custom auction will be taking place some time before Kingdom come.

User Image All about Nexi!

Nexi appeared a few days after Ruri started taking her pills, first taking the form of a 'neon green squiggly thing'. As time passed he evolved into something that looked very human, capable of speech and everything. Though he still is transparent.

He's a rather emotional creature, who shows just how he's feeling in facial featues. If he's sad he will cry and if he's happy his smile can light a room. Quite clingy, he's rarely a few metres from Ruriska's side. Nexi is honest, innocent and wears his heart on his sleeve. At times he's just like a child, while at the same time he is remarkably intelligent.

He spends most of his time watching movies. Yep, he's you're regular film buff. Of course, anything on T.V will do. Documentaries, game shows, reality t.v, mini series or movie, he'll watch it.

Description by Ruriska.

Funny quotes from the inmates patients.

Kaze Taco
Pills bring all the crazies to the thread
And they're like, "You wanna pop pills?"
Damn right, I wanna pop pills!
You can buy some, but not my happy pills! DX


Because no one can have my paxil *hugs her bottle* X3


Vocalization
Vis- insanity wasn't really quite as crazily estastic until he
arrived, bringing friendly pills.

Regardless of what time it really is for the illustrious Viscount, the delivery woman (bad timing and skimpy taste in clothing included) bashes down the beforementioned artist's door.

"BREAKFAST DELIVERY!!!"

A blueberry muffin, in all its blueberry muffiness glory, sent by the rather strange and often dull-witted Ruriska (but she can make one damn good hot choco).

"Enjoooy!"

The delivery woman dances out the door, far away a muffin maker collapses across her keyboard and various other people are doing various other things. And thus the muffin saga begins!

Why anyone would want to affiliate their store with the Happy Home is beyond me, but here are some banners in case you want to spread the insanity. If you'd like your banner here, PM or post in the thread. Banners that I consider "too big" will be reduced to a link.

Basically, add yourself to my friendslist. Or add me to your friendlist, whatever you want to call it.
I promise I will only use the mailinglist to promote upcoming events and special quests.

The Happy Home is also the residence/place of employment for a pair of doctors, names of Corbin and Dayton Tarax, who couldn't possibly be more different. Corbin, who's a blond and serious to the point of being a**l, is a by-the-book and businesslike personality, while Dayton is a upbeat, glasses-wearing guy with candy-colored hair, who rarely seems to show up to work; they also take care of totally different patients, so they never seem to cross paths. When the subject comes up, they claim to be brothers that despise each other, but it sometimes seems like they could be... the same person?! Well, who knows, but one thing's for sure: You're probably not gonna be scoring anything out of Corbin, so you'd better catch hold of Dayton when you see 'em...

The art and concept are by Viscount Greenleaf. He does not have a DA account, nor an account anywhere else. If you see the art elsewhere, please inform him.
The banners were made following a tutorial by tutorialblog.org. Thank you.
