with the last year being potentially the bloodiest yet for all those entrapped within the city, the cheer of the new year, a fresh start and some hope for improvement is exactly what everyone needs. though it's certainly hard to put any stock in hope for a peaceful year in this city. and while the galas held at the white house have a mixed history of success, and an unfortunate history of tragedy, the ones that go over well tend to be incredible mood lifters. a masquerade ball is always a hit, and they will be going all out to help everyone forget the horrors the last year has held, and to wipe away the stain of last valentine's day's bloody nightmare. to change it up a bit, those in charge have decided that, rather than hosting the event at the white house, they are going to be hosting a fundraiser for the smithsonian museum. invitations are sent out to the entire city, beautiful pale pink and silver cards detailing the location and date of the masked ball being held. bring your beloved, your best friend, or sign up for a blind date if you're feeling a bit adventurous! the museum is decked out, lit entirely by strings of lights and candles, the entire place turned into a hall of mirrors decorated in pinks and reds, with roses falling from the ceiling and and covering the tables. to entertain the guests, there's a photo booth with various props and backdrops, professional photographers roaming the area, live music, and plenty of food and drink for everyone. hopefully this will be a suitable close to an otherwise disastrous year, and a way for everyone to forget their troubles for a while.
tldr ; almost as a thank you for those who have stuck through the nightmares that have come with living in washington, those in charge have put together another gala, an evening of nothing but dancing and fun to try and lighten the spirits of the citizens as we continue on in this new year. those who have signed up for a blind date will be finding out their partner from their invitation and we hope to see everyone there in their valentine's day best!
OOC INFORMATION
hi friends !!! welcome to another hidden mini event !!! we've somehow already had 5 of them and we are so excited to bring you our 6th one !! we wanted to mix things up a bit, bring you guys a different element to a classic rp ball event with these blind dates so we hope you all took advantage of that if you wanted to participate! we are so excited to get this moving and see how all the drama unfolds from inside the museum walls! we hope you all enjoy this as much as we did putting it together ♥
DATES
it will run from feb 10th - feb 21st
this event will last eleven days ooc , but one night in character
WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE BALL
a basic layout of the smithsonian : we will be using the museum of natural history for this event! the main gala will be held on the first floor, the rotunda being used as the dance floor, the rest of the museum is still open to those in attendance, your characters are free to explore all that it has to offer, from the dinosaurs, to the live butterflies, to the night sky exhibit-- please feel free to use this map to help you navigate the setting! there is also a ton of information on the smithsonian website about each exhibit!
food and drink : free food, an open bar, candy bowls and sweets available to everyone! any valentine's treat you can think of has been sourced and provided for all to enjoy!
dancing : of course this is a gala, so go wild during a faster number, or finally extend an invitation to someone special to dance to one of the slower songs. request songs from the band and enjoy in every way you can!
outfits : dress to impress, wear that gown you’ve been eyeing for far too long, don your best masquerade mask, find your best suit, whatever fits your style best. and feel free to post outfits and looks now if you so please!! we'd love to see what everyone wears!!
get creative : this is just a new setting, with something new to work with! you do not have to adhere to any real guidelines, beyond 'remember the rules of the rp'. so if you wanna do something really off the wall, maybe dm an admin. otherwise, there's more guests than agents and security, if you wanna try to ride that t-rex skeleton, just make sure your date is keeping watch!
most of all, have fun : we want this to be a creative outlet, so please, if there is something that you think could be at this ball, be it a game, food, etc, we’re open to it !! also, feel free to have your characters make up their own drama, to go a little wild, cut loose !! just keep it within the realm of possibilities, we don’t want anyone escorted out before the party has really begun!
BLIND DATES
if you submitted your character for the blind dates , please follow this link to find your matches!
please review your pairings and let us know if we missed you, or if you've been matched up with the same writer too many times, or for any reason that you may need a new match!
be sure that you reach out to your blind date partner so that you can both plot together and get on the same page about the vibe between characters, and how it will go! we want this to be a chance for you to mix up who you usually write with, so please be sure to branch out with these new pairings!
QUICK HOUSEKEEPING :
one stop shop for all your plotting, posting and tagging questions !!
feel free to begin plotting now! you can post plotting calls, starter calls, outfit edits or anything of the like !! just remember to keep any in character posts saved for the 10th!
we usually start the events around 10-11 am est / 2-3pm gmt , so please keep that in mind when queuing any starters !! you’re probably best off queuing for around 12pm est/4pm gmt!
unlike our full events, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PUT OTHER THREADS ON HOLD! you are more than welcome to continue to write outside of the event !!
feel free to have your characters begin talking about the invitations, the excitement, or asking people to go with them if they are not going on a blind date! so, feel free to begin plotting and getting everything sorted for when the event begins!
please tag all posts (in character , out of character , para , etc ) with hwminievent6, or with "valentine's ball", "valentine's gala", something to indicate that those threads are taking place in the mini event, since people will be doing both event and regular threads!
please please remember to still tag all triggers that may apply!!
again, this is a MINI EVENT and therefore NOT MANDATORY
as always, please make sure to have fun & feel free to really cut loose besties!! we hope that you and your characters find something to enjoy at the ball! we cannot wait to see what different ideas you all come up with and cannot wait to see your threads on the dash! please do not hesitate to ask any questions that may arise & let us know if you have any suggestions or need help! with that all said, as always, PLEASE LIKE THIS WHEN YOU HAVE READ IT ALL! ♥

To all members of HiddenWashington
I have yet again made promises to write everyone a private messages on the positivity day. It did not happen, only to a few, but do not think I have forgotten you.
Life has been up and down for me lately. I have tried to focus on myself and my own well being. Written when muse has been there. I have read everyone’s messages, taking them to heart.
I also feel like I’d probably write the same to all of you, even though it gets a bit of a personal touch in some of them. Every member of HiddenWashington is truly unique and very talented. Perhaps do not all of you see it yourself, but you are. Kind, amazing people and it makes me happy you still want to write with me. Even on these days I’m low on energy. Is slow with replies on both discord, doing closed starters + replies sometimes.
This has been a welcoming role play group, a safe place to hid from the real world for a while. Think into the muses' mind and write with everyone. I have been in many, but this is the one I remember always. I have been a part for a long time now, from almost the beginning, left a while to focus on real life, but came back. Thought of leaving again due to personal things, never did because I remind myself what an amazing group of people you are.
You are all so kind too in the ooc chat on Discord. Whenever I have complained about something have some of you been supportive. I try to be as supportive too whenever I read messages in the venting or positivity channel. I read most of them. Reading almost everything you all write there.
Everyone are welcoming, kind and warm to new comers and I love that. A group with many people and characters, have I never seen a role-play like this. How everyone come together in the ooc Discord to welcome the new member/s, also it's amazing when it's someones birthday and everyone wishing them a happy birthday. It's truly amazing.
I could write more, but I won't. I think I have as previous years said everything I have wanted to say. I love to write with al of you, I will try my best to become more brave and write more to everyone about plots. Even though I am a bit afraid of doing that because I think I am not good at it, not as I think everyone else are. I will take one day at a time to write more about plots, figure out what connections I need for all my characters.
Until next year! I can't believe Hidden has been around for so many years, we who have been here from the beginning grew up with it, it's fantastic and really fun.
I hope all of you who are reading this have a good day. If not, I do hope it gets better. That everything in life will go well for everyone in the future with whatever you are dealing with, good and bad.

Hey friends, the starters might be scattered and few and far between but I need some more threads for Luke Skywalker and Evangeline Fox so consider this a call. If you could tell me what characters you were thinking, that would be lovely.

Was that [NEO HOU/HOU MING HAO]? Oh no no, that was just [WU XIE], a/an [CANON CHARACTER]from [GRAVE ROBBERS’ CHRONICLES]. They are [TWENTY SIX] years old and [ARE] aware that they are not actually from Washington DC. Too bad they can’t stray from this city for long.  Hello! I am Meaghan, I haven't rped in like 3 years and this is Wu Xie!
Wu Xie is the main character from Grave Robbers' Chronicles, a Chinese novel series and also several drama adaptations following the books.
It's kind of an Chinese Indiana Jones but it involves like 9 families (not all of them are in the series but the prequel the The Mystic Nine the families are involved....plus the other 2 main characters are an immortal who also has amnesia and a bestie who just wants treasure and food. and his name literally translates to 'fat man') for generations have been protecting yet also grave robbing treasures from bad guys wanting to get immortality?
It's hard to explain so I'll link the wiki page of the series to this below. But the series are quite good (and the sequel based 10 years later) but the FC who I am using is my favourite from one of the series adaptations. I’m still editing his bio page but yeah.
Wu Xie is an antique shop owner, and liaisons with the museums about the authenticity of artifacts. I'm from Australia so I use the English spelling, pre warning in advance!
So things below is a little about me:
I like kdramas and cdramas, Doctor Who, Criminal Minds, Supernatural, TVD/TO/Legacies, Merlin, Marvel, DC, Harry Potter, some anime, amongst many other things. I did have another character in mind but all my gifs I made for him were deleted from years ago.... I might do characters from The Mysterious Thief Yamaneko or An Incurable Case of Love and others maybe in the near future.
In regards to TV series and movies, honestly recommend me shows to watch and I can do the same if you want some not so familiar Asian dramas. Or crime shows. I love crime shows. However I am not really a horror fan.
I am a dog lover and owner, even though I am allergic to animal hair
I have a obsession with the river puppy aka hippo. I find them adorable
I have autism and ADHD and actually do a lot of research in my own time about the two neurodiversities on a blog even though I am about to finish my diploma in nursing (no more assessments though!).
If there is a misunderstanding, it's most likely by accident but feel free to let me know! I do sometimes find it hard to express in writing so I may accidentally use the wrong word. If it doesn't make sense, tell me so I can improve my writing!
I love to talk, so if you want to chat or plot, feel free to dm me!

Just a heads up, on your Bucky connections page the image for Natasha is one of Eiza Gonzalez and not Adria Arjona. Figured I might say something as Eiza is on the banned fc list
