Warning.
This roleplay will contain themes of suicide, depression, self-harm, addiction, and other things related. If you are sensitive to these topics, I suggest proceeding with this roleplay cautiously.

WELCOME TO AICO.

The corporation that Gets You Back To Loving More.

As the effects of dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine depletion continue to ripple through our nation, mental illness and psychiatric disaster continues to expand. In the face of this very real threat, world leaders from every country are quickly uniting behind one solution: the Instant Mood Fixer.

More reliable than the medication you've been prescribed, more stable than your central nervous system, and far safer than illegitimate, unregulated alternatives such as cocaine or methamphetamine… IMF truly is a new advancement for a new era. IMF will free up our sorrows, giving individuals, friends, and families the vital chance they need to love, smile, and grow. IMF will allow us to rebuild the mental health world, restore order to the nation, and begin looking forward, investing once more in our collective destiny.

Welcome to the future of mood regulation.

PLOT

It seems like the world needs more mental help access with every year that passes by. Suicide rates climb dangerously, depression and unhappiness becomes the number one fear in the nation, and heartbreak seems to be more common than being in a relationship. You are no exception. You have tried everything, and you mean everything, to relieve yourself of your pain and suffering yet nothing seemed to be working. Until a few years ago when something ingenious came into fruition.

A well-known Japanese corporation by the name of AiCo released into the market a product called the Instant Mood Fixer. This consumable and sweet-tasting antidepressant took over the psychiatric world and you were lucky enough to get your hands on it. For a few years you bought into that glistening drink and it was a huge success, not just for you, but for everybody. While you drank every drop of that bright pink bottle it felt as if you were at an all-time high. Those who were in the mental health care field dared to call it, "The Last Medicine." It was effective. It was divine. It was nectar in retail. But you're in need something stronger now, don't you?

It isn't unheard of to have antidepressants become tolerated, to grow addicted to the feeling of happiness. Soon enough it seems like many are accustomed to the disastrous symptoms of this sweet tasting happy juice. If you don't have the Instant Mood Fixer in your system it seems like you're going back to how you were, or even worse.

Fear not, AiCo has heard your prayers and pleas. They come to bring a gift.

Released into the market is a new drink, a new antidepressant that will solve all of your problems. Now even stronger, more effective, and more longer-lasting than the old one, AiCo proudly announces True Moods: The IMF 2.0. And you just so happen to be invited to the launch party at the AiCo building thanks to your clinical physician.
Interested, you dig a little more into the launch party and find that anyone who attends will automatically become a full-time employee at the corporation. Whether it was the pretty graphics or the fact that you're in desperate need of help, you RSVP your attendance.

And thus begins your stay at the corporation that Gets You Back To Loving More™.

MAL, CEO of AiCo. (Played by Co-GM @| Muse |)

DAKAI MATSUSHIMA, COO and Founder of AiCo. (Played by yours truly.)


PRICES BY AICOIN

What is AiCoin?
AiCoin powered by AiCo is a type of currency used between employees and the founders of the corporation. Used like Apple/Samsung/Android Pay, those inside the facility use the AiCo app to:
1. Check their balance.
2. Make purchases.
3. Transfer AiCoins. (Privileges given only to the CEO, COO, and AI)

How does AiCoin work?
For everyone's convenience, AiCoin is available through the AiCo phone app. Between merchant and customer, people can make easy and quick payments to think

What are the prices of places/products around AiCo Headquarters?
- 1,000AC will be given at the start of employment.

- 10AC will be given every day if the employee makes it without penalty.

- 10AC will be given if you take a picture of any AiCo bottle through the AiCo phone app.

- Prices will be listed in the LOCATIONS section of the info dump. Honestly, don't even worry about the prices unless you are on the cheap spectrum. AiCo Treasury will take care of your balances and guarantee a worry-free spending experience.

How can AiCoins be taken away?
AiCoin is a currency set in place to make sure that your experience at the company is immersive, involved, and developing good, positive, respectful habits towards employees and the founders. Points can be lost if you:
1. Are late to a business meeting.
2. Are not present at a business meeting.
3. Commit a crime.
4. Go against the grain of AiCo culture.
5. Have a complaint filed against you.


FILE A COMPLAINT

What is a complaint?
A complaint in the AiCo community is something no one wants to get. Once someone gets a complaint there is a huge penalty that follows. There is a serious reduction of AiCoins from your AiCo account, a reduced dose of True Moods/Instant Mood Fixer in your next appointment, and you get more hours during the evenings at work. Needless to say, a complaint isn't something to mess around with.

Want to file a complaint? Click here. (LINK TBA.)


RULES/THINGS TO KNOW

- Iwaku rules obviously apply.

- If you have any questions, you can obviously ask me or my Co-GM privately in the PMs, in the OOC thread, or Skype/KakaoTalk, if you have us on there.

- Make sure that all your posts are mobile friendly or at least have a plain, code-free mobile version.

- I do not want to see any one-liners in this RP. I don't want a novel series either. I completely understand that everyone is busy, but do take the time to post one decently long paragraph minimum.

- If you're going on hiatus, let us know when you'll come back. AiCo will handle the rest.

- Like the hiatus, AiCo will handle things if you decide to drop out. We understand. Sometimes too much detail and life gets in the way.

- Drama in the OOC will not be tolerated. AiCo is a place where everyone is understood on civil terms. If you encounter an issue, please let us know immediately and we will handle it.

- One character will be accepted in this roleplay. If need be, we will be lenient and accept another character of yours. Only if we need to.

- The posting speed for this roleplay is 2 posts a week. But! This is subject to change, since everyone has lives and everything gets super busy once school/work/emergencies hit.

-AiCo will always try to keep things interesting though, in case things get a little dry around the headquarters. If you have any ideas/suggestions/complaints for the company, let us know and we'll see what we can do.

- Though we incorporated a sex hotel, all sex scenes are either put in spoilers, fade to black, or taken to PMs.

- Any triggering content written will have to be put in spoilers.

Hi everyone, I'm the co-GM here~

Thanks for everyone who showed much interest and decided to join. Feel free to PM me, or ask in the OOC thread, with anything concerning the rp as a whole since I mainly focused on the plot during development or any OOC questions.

Don't you ask me about code lmfao. That's all Jihae. I can't code for anything XD.

Yeah...I'm in the process of changing my username if I can think of another good one. Someone here already has Muse without my fancy lines...lmao!

Hey everyone~

Just an update. We're getting the final touches of the rp in order and will soon be ready for it's launch. But! Don't think of this as a rush for your CS's. Please take time getting them in order as well as any code I bet some of you are working on lmfao. Post them up on the sign-ups or PM them to Jihae or myself if you would like an once over on them.

End of friendly update~
 
Hey guys!

I'd be glad to have the first CS up and running just so I can bump the thread lol, but hopefully everyone's creating great characters! Also, don't be shy! I'm pretty sure everyone here is super friendly so go ahead and start thinking of relationships with each other's characters! You can also start planning relationships with both the CEO and COO! Me and @MUSΞ will be happy to brainstorm with you all <3
 
Hey!

How's everyone doing? Hope things are good!

I hope this project didn't die off! I apologize for not saying much, but I've been in the process of moving back up to school. Now that it'll be over today, I'll have my character posted within the next 2 days or so. I hope to see some other chatacters!

Nah you're all good. I hope that move back to school went smoothly. The rp is still on as scheduled~ We're waiting on CS's.

Which does remind me, all who are still interested, please let us know here on the OOC and the progress on your CS's. It is getting a bit too quiet XD.

Ah, np. All I wanted to know was if all were still interested and making progress. Thanks for checking in and letting us know.~
 
This is seriously awesome! You guys have put so much detail and effort into this and it really shows.

Hey! Thank you for the compliment! We really appreciate it~ We try our best to create a very interesting, unique rp to gift to Iwaku.

Hey guys! Sorry for the absence~ No rush but a liiiittle rush when posting all of your amazing characters! I get that school is coming up (and for some it has already begun!) so posting speed will most definitely be subject to change. However, it got a little too quiet in the thread that me and @MUSΞ were starting to get worried! <3 So let's make 2018 a great year with academics and creative writing! (+ awesome characters)

SORRY I'M LATE, HI EVERYONEEE

I apologize that it took me so long to actually post here in the OOC! Began another semester of college so had to get my lazy ass back onto a specific schedule again. But, now that I have all my free time and nap times all mapped out, I can finally get started on things. I should have my sheet up by this weekend, at least, the information bit. I'm sure I'll be all extra with the coding so that can always be added as the last step xD

But, it's a pleasure to meet all of those I have not met yet! And those that I do know, I missed yooou <3

I can't wait to see everyone's lovely creations, so sending some inspiration your way~

and psst, just a heads up, I love to make my characters suffer so if yours is ever in need of a stress ball
TRUST ME, MINE IS A UNWILLING CANDIDATE ALWAYS

I'm still in this just been busy will get char up by this week.
 
Finally.

Dakai's CS has been posted! :'D

Hopefully my post can give a sense of what the character sheet is. Please do keep in mind that because Dakai is the COO, he doesn't really need to fill out the questionnaire, unfortunately. Me and @MUSΞ will also be posting a shared character that will be interacting with your characters, so hopefully that character's CS will give you some help :D

edit: was that even english lmao
