Happy New Year!!
Starting off 2024 with a dragon and some bunnies.
So like I understand the need to free up usernames that were taken and then never used again, but what about accounts of people who died ?
Its unclear if the criteria for an inactive account’s deletion is both “No log in for years AND zero tweets made by the account as a whole,aka empty accounts”
It could very well be “No login for years and zero tweets made during this inactivity”
Which would sucks cuz theres a lot of cool stuff made from accounts who are inactive, and again, all that some families have left from their deceased loved ones is an inactive twitter account.
Back in 2019,this concern was brought up, and Twitter said they wouldnt delete accounts to free up names without making it possible to memorialize accounts of a deceased person first.
Now, Under Elon, i dont know if it will be made.
So if you know an inactive account you really loved.. make sure to save its tweets into the wayback machine, take screenshots, etc.
Just in case.
Also they dont even specify how many years. We’re left in total darkness regarding questions we have.
Also hey maybe if enough people Ask Elon about not deleting inactive accounts who do have content in them maybe hell only delete accounts who are empty ??
At Prince Leopold University you are expected to be the best because remember the best are made not born and you are expected to get good or get lost.
Play as a scholarship student at Prince Leopold University attempt to balance attending classes, make rivals, meet lifelong friends and pursue budding romances all the while dealing with the administration of a major university. Or don't.
Getting a place in PLU is hard, getting a full scholarship is harder. You did both. So perhaps it's no wonder why everyone seems to have such high expectations for you, expected to maintain passing grades, attend your club and be a forward face for the school, it's not like it's anything you haven't done before right? But can you pull it off again?
• Play as male, female or non-binary with options to be straight, gay, asexual or not pursue a romance at all.
• Experience a university that takes itself a little too seriously and expects you to do so as well – define your main character's personality, appearance, history and demeanour.
• Choose what scholarship you're on and which club you're in while training and playing like your scholarships on the line – because it is.
• Choose from track and field, music club, student council and drama club.
• Romance a hot-headed high-school rival, the brooding lead musician, the friendly student president who happens to be your brother's best friend, the charming but distant actor or your awkward roommate.
• Focus on or ignore your relationships with your teammates, acquaintances, family and friends back home, school staff and the public.

The Rival
Talented, proud, competitive, irritating, insuffera- the vice-captain of the Prince Leopold Track-and-Field Team seems to not have any time for anyone but when it seems like they might be running out of your life they always slow down.
Enemies to Rivals to Lovers
Hader/Hetti Jasanoff: H
(m/f), 20
The Musician
Intense, passionate, moody, the leader of the Prince Leopold Music Club and Screaming Diamonds, they seem to be affronted by those who treat their dream like a hobby but when they catch you staring as they sing, they find that their heart skips a beat.
The Misunderstood Bad Boy
Beck/Belle Torres: B
(m/f), 21
The President
Social, spirited and helpful, the President of the Student Body would be perfect if you could just forget that they are your brother's best friend. With a habit of prioritising others over themselves and burying their feelings for someone else's sake, they have to ask themselves? Are they willing to bury their feelings for you?
Boy/Girl Next Door, Brother's Best Friend
Frédéric 'Fred'/Frederica 'Freddie' Jame: F
(m/f), 21
The Actor
Charming, flirty and distant, the lead of the school's production and member of the drama club is rather pleasant to be around besides the fact you know nothing about them but as you both get further into your characters they seem to be content to hide their feelings deeper in their lines.
The Guy Who's Been Hurt Before, The Girl Who Doesn't Believe In Love
Rudra/Rania Punyamurthula: R
(m/f), 18
The Roommate
Awkward, excitable and smart, your roommate for this year is far too busy getting a good education for any clubs but when they are at every match, competition or performance you need to ask yourself? That's far too much for just a coincidence, right?

GGGLU is rated 18+ for strong language, non-explicit sexual themes, drug and alcohol use, morally questionable behaviour and all the other things that might happen in university.
No offense but the internet gives you the most wrong and fucked up idea of helping people because people get mad if you don't care about disasters happening in 72 countries, meanwhile the people in real life that are doing the most good picked one VERY SPECIFIC thing to care about and care about it REALLY HARD
“It’s funny how history decided to repeat itself with you.”
Who knew a simple handshake of the past would become an unwanted problem in your life?
You’ve become one of the witnesses to something you shouldn’t have in the hallway of Lumintoile Academia. In exchange for your silence, you both have been brought in as honorary members to The Elites. The Student Council are those Elites in this school of yours, with power and charisma at their fingertips, they are the paragons of what a Lumintoile student should be.
So it’s a wonder why they’re committing to something they shouldn’t be sticking their noses into.
Like, say perhaps, a missing person’s case?
You’re unsure why they want you and your fellow witness’ help on something that shouldn’t be your problem anyway. All you want to do is to keep your record clean and last your final high school year without a scratch on you.
Unfortunately, the rabbit hole only seems to go deeper.
With time running faster, academics piling, mental health deteriorating, secrets unraveling, and lies exposing themselves, the urge to take a nap has never been any more greater.
Cheers, my friend, for you’ll be graduating high school with a pathetic battle cry for your sanity.
Cheers to The Elites is an urban fantasy, mystery, thriller, supernatural, slice of life IF that will be written in Twine. The story takes place in the fictional country of Rosedale in the modern age, and is rated 18+ for heavy topics such as: abuse (emotional, psychological, implied physical), violence, blood, graphic gore (specifically plant body horror, general body horror, mutilation, & dismemberment), mentions & use of alcohol, mentions & talks of death, self-harm & self-destructive tendencies, mentions, talks & attempts of suicide, unhealthy coping mechanisms, instances of bullying

->Their Birthdays
->Important canon bits
• Weylyn Rutherford the President (18, M, Demisexual Demiromantic)
The good boy next door. He’s your neighbor in the local neighborhood you both live in. A kind and patient guy that helps around your family every once in a while with a smile on his face. Not as smart or athletic as the Vice President or the Treasurer, but he’s trying his best. Weylyn tends to disappear randomly a day or two each month, and comes back like nothing happened with an excuse that he’s just visiting a relative. Yeah, totally explains why his eyes seem to glow a bit brighter for a few days.
“Ah, jeez, you didn’t have to do that. You’re going to make me blush!”
~•~•~
• Fleur Heartstein the Vice President (17, F, Bisexual Greyromantic)
A rich heiress to a family owned bank, she’s the epitome of the “Top of My School” game. Always with high academic achievements and grades, multi-talented, boys and girls swooning over her left and right; she is the girl everyone either dreams or envies. Despite her popularity in the school, her demeanor screams of a distant figure that’s only praised for what she is. Calm, cold, quiet, people like her are known to hide and say so much more under the surface. Is that blood and petals in her coughs?
“I’m surprised you even want to talk, let alone to me.”
~•~•~
• Zephyrine “Zeph” Vel Delle the Secretary (17, F, Pansexual Panromantic)
The ever excitable and cheery Secretary of the Council. The one to bring the fun and excitement on a bleak or boring day. One for makeup and fashion, she’s the gal who’ll ask if you can let her paint your nails or test a new eyeshadow she bought on you. She’s everyone’s best friend, if you may. Despite the giddy and somewhat airheadedness in the way she appears, there is a side you've yet to see from her. And you don't know if you can handle it.
"Oh, look at that, we're holding hands! Does that mean we're dating now?"
~•~•~
• Eliseo De Loughrey the Treasurer (18, M, Bisexual Aroflux)
The bad boy of the Student Council, an irony for being part of a paragon of the Lumintoile perfect student. Often found smoking in the old classrooms of the 7th floor or flirting with some random girl or guy in the campus. A smug demeanor, and known to tease, any annoyance towards him is usually gone by sweet words and a smile. Open with everything in his life, even the unnecessary bits, is he as transparent as he seems?
"You're a little adorable thing, aren't you?"
~•~•~
• Cooper Lockhart the ??? (17, M, Aceflux Biromantic)
Someone from outside of Lumintoile. Not much is known about him, but the fact that Fleur's seen with him all the time outside of school. He doesn't look like anyone you've seen around the neighborhood. With an attention span that is always drifting off somewhere and with a hyperactive attitude, it's a wonder Fleur sticks with him. Maybe he's some foreigner friend visiting, or maybe something more sinister is afoot.
"Aww, come 'ere and let me bless you with hugs!”
~•~•~
• Ophelia Edevane the batchmate (18, F, Greysexual Panromantic)
A new friend you met through Zephyrine. She's an unusual one from the next classroom over. Head stuck in fantasy books, she longs for something well... magical to happen in her life. Gullible and easily awestruck, an academic to the unknown and mysterious. A researcher if you may, always getting her head into dangerous things just to learn them. Though it's a bit alarming at how calm she is about it all. It could be a façade, for all you know.
"Oh, there you are! Come on, I want to check something out with you!"
• Murphy Heartstein (16, M)
One of Fleur’s adoptive younger brothers in the 10th grade. A socialite and fairly popular in his grade. Part of the school’s basketball team, and often found playing basketball during lunch.
~•~•~
• Ziyad “Z” Heartstein (16, M)
Murphy’s twin brother and the slightly lesser known brother. Just as quiet as his older sister, and often found in the library either reading or playing chess with Fleur.
~•~•~
• Chiffon (31, M)
The butler of the Heartstein family. He’s an aloof and frank man, always seen picking up and dropping off the Heartsteins via limo.
~•~•~
• Evelyn Lockhart (24, F)
Cooper’s older sister. She drops by every now and then to check up on him. Charming and just as mysterious as her brother with a permanent smile on her face.
~•~•~
• Shiki Chikafuji (???, NB)
They call themselves a friend.

After a villain almost decimated the world as you know it, you and four other people were chosen by the hands of fate to gain powerful abilities and become a member of Legion, humanity's only hope.
Because of that, you became celebrities in your own right. Red carpets, photoshoots, commercials for energy drinks and more. After a while it felt like the villain would never return and you'd be stuck being a celebrity for powers you don't even use.
Until the villain does return.
And you win.
Unfortunately, you paid the ultimate price: you died and became a martyr.
Or so...everyone thought.
Six years later, you wake up in the same spot you were in with no memory of the last near decade of your life. While only a night has gone by for you, for everyone else? A lifetime.
Everyone has moved on with their lives. The friends you considered family barely speak to each other, all of them haunted by everything that came after the fight. You have no recollection of anything…except something inside you knows your reappearance was no ordinary coincidence.
Especially when you begin to hear a voice in your head, commanding you, telling you to destroy everything in your path….
Stolen Resurrection is 18+ gritty IF that's a mixture of fame and super heroism. You are a member of the elite Legion, believed to be dead for half a decade until you wake up to a changed world six years later.
Customize your MC from personality, appearance, gender identity and their persona. Do they embrace the celebrity life or reject it? Do they love their position as someone forced to sacrifice their life for the good of the world or do they resent it?
Curate whether your MC will move on or stay stuck in the past. Choose how to approach every situation and every person from your past and present life.
Navigate a world in which you are famed for being a chosen one and choose how you approach that.
Wake up six years after people believing you dead. Deal with the aftermath of grief and loss you left in your wake.
Romance ROs with different personalities and different feelings/thoughts towards your 'resurrection' and everything else.
Character-driven narrative with an emphasis on the choices you make and the relationships you build.
Prepare and train for a villain who may or may not be using you as their puppet.
Die. And then come back to life.
THE EX FIANCÉ // THE SELLOUT: CATH HARRISON [M/F][RO]
Your ex and old Legion member, Cath has become the most prominent and beloved figure in New America. Once kind, charismatic, and a charmer, Cath is now the stoic poster child for the company that made Legion. So much so, that your old friends call them a sellout. Cal was proposing to you when everything went to hell all those years ago. When you return, you find them remarried. Cath has moved on...or have they?
THE OLD FRIEND // THE STRANGER: REA SANTOS [F][RO]
Once your closest friend and fellow Legion member, Rea has grown cold over the years, haunted by that fateful night. Even though she still has love for the team, she does her best to rebel as much as possible as revenge for the attack that took a life she can never get back. While she understands your disappearance and subsequent reappearance is not your fault, she can't help but blame you for not being around. Rea is a stranger to you now and whatever friendship you two had is successfully dead.
THE FORMER FAN // THE PRO: JAMES SATO [M][RO]
James, bright and wide-eyed, was once your biggest fan, gloating that he was going to apply to NAG Labs because of you. He also had a childish admiration for you that you found endearing at best and a nuisance at worse. Now, years later, James is somehow as old as you, has long moved on past his fan phase, and is the new head of the division that created you. Oddly enough, it feels weird without James Sato not following you around like a lost puppy. Have the roles reversed?
THE EX FLAME // THE HERMIT: NICO/NAOMI CARTER [M/F][RO]
Once the sunshine and comedic relief of the team, N has disappeared, becoming a shell of their former self. They do nothing else but stay in the bar, drinking their sorrows away. They are considered hostile and want nothing to do with the team or the Company since your death. N may have had feelings for you in the past, but you're not too sure. It's not as if you could ever pursue that years ago. Now? Well, it seems like it's all too late.
OTHER CHARACTERS
??? -- your hear them in your head. Is this the person who has trapped you all this time?

Logan Kane (m) -- the new head of NAG and currently running for president of New America. The son of the now dead head that you were once close to. Logan doesn't trust you. Your reappearance has set him on edge.
