◣ Nostalgia Nook ◢
In the center of a cluster of shops,
There is a small area called the Nostalgia Nook.
What's inside there? Well, see for yourself.
As of 12/25/10, Vatheon has grown a new area that shifts and changes as much as the rest of the city does. Shops appear and disappear on a whim and in the center of the circle of shops always reflect the mood the city appears to be in. When it's happy, you will find a small park area with an even smaller koi fish pond. People who come into the area will find themselves suddenly extremely happy and full of cheer. On the other hand, when the city is sad, people will find a broken down playground, dangerous for children and adults alike. There may be rats that will bite you or broken pieces of metal strewn about. Anyone entering this area will feel extremely sad and lacking hope.
But that's not the main part of the Nook!
The main part is the shops. When characters enter the stores they will find that some seem awfully familiar to them. These are shops based around character's home worlds, bringing items from there and even small pamphlets giving a synopsis of what that world is like (all purposefully vague of course, other characters won't be able to get secrets about others from it). All sorts of things can be found there, it's up to YOU, the player, to describe it below.
As of 2/6/11, things in Nostalgia Nook are no longer free. They cost Starfish Tokens, which may be earned throughout the city, through all sorts of jobs or tasks. More information can be found here and here at the FAQ!
Fill out below the little form below describing your character's stores. If more than one character shares the same homeworld, comment underneath that character's original comment to avoid spam and duplicates.
Please keep in mind that other characters might not agree with your shops or that it might cause confusion later on in the game. Be responsible with your shops and when the entire canon leaves Vatheon, the comment will be deleted. Have fun, and enjoy!

Mall of America
Shop Name: Mall of America
Shop Description: Despite being named after the country, America, that's only really in name and perhaps, style. Outwardly, it looks like a little tourist shop, with flags of all kinds in the windows which obscure the inside too much to look in. Yet, when you step inside -- it changes.
A HUGE expansive mall welcomes you, very busy and very open but really -- it doesn't sell much stuff worthwhile. Each floor seems to represent a different country, while the floor being entered from is just a small welcoming floor.
The second floor below is the floor that represents the United States of America -- a little tourist shop with "I ♥ NY" or little flags welcomes as you step off the escalator and the rest of the floor is mostly filled with restaurants you would find in America or American brand names of clothing (with a slight twist that might seem sea themed, perhaps?). There's also a toy shop and a book shop (though the titles all seem familiar and yet... not familiar at the same time. "Of Fish and Men"? "To Kill a Jellyfish"? "Lord of the Clams"?). It' just a very very vain floor with very very vain shops...
But hey, at least there's a Starbucks and McDonalds?
Castmates can comment to this comment with the appearance of their countries floor too! Remember about fourth walling and try to go around it and don't game break too badly!
