Mod Post! March Theme!
One day, as Belle and I were managing the comm., we noticed a newcomer walking in. A very familiar looking, miniature newcomer…
“…Wait, could that be…Uzura-chan?”
“What? Uzura? You’re kidding!” I spotted Uzura. “Well, whaddya know…”
I watched as Uzura approached us and the rest of the comm started noticing her, too.
“Omigosh, is that Uzura?”
“SQUEEEE!!! Er, I mean, OMG yay! Tutu cameos!”
“You know what? If we could get Uzura, we should have Fakir as a guest sometime!”
Uzura looked around at everyone. “All these people know my name-zura? I don’t think I’ve met any of them before-zura…”
“Ah, no, not exactly. You see, this is a community of fans of the show you’re in, so they recognize you,” I tried to explain briefly.
"Uzura-chan! I'm glad to see you," Belle said, hugging Uzura. "What brings you here?"
“I was walking around the story-zura, but I got lost and then there were all these different rooms they called ‘communities’-zura,” Uzura chirped. “I don’t know which way the story is so I’m trying to find it again-zura.”
Belle and I looked at each other worriedly. As much as either of us knew about the show, we had no idea how to get there from here…
Then, Uzura spotted something on the other side of the room, and became curious. “Aoooooh? Maybe there might be something back there-zura!” She dashed to the back, and then disappeared behind a corner.
After a moment, I realized, “Wait…isn’t that the mod’s section?”
Belle's eyes widened. "Uh oh."
We followed her to the back where we found her poking around at different things. She had found a little handle attached to a gear in a corner. “Maybe this goes back to the story-zura!”
Before either of us could interfere, she started turning the handle around.
“Uzura! Wait, don’t do that, it’ll…” I trailed off. “What does it do, anyway?” I glanced back at the comm., where things seemed to be as usual. “…Nothing?”
Belle's forehead was creased. "I don't know, but whatever it is, I don't think it's good." She cleared her throat and yelled authoritatively, "Uzura-chan, kindly let go of the handle!"
Uzura ignored her, her attention on the task at hand.
Then, I noticed something strange. “What? Why did the theme just go from Love Match to Antithesis…?”
“That’s last month’s theme…” Belle looked at Uzura apprehensively, who was continuing to turn. “Does it change themes?”
Other people outside were noticing. “Wait a sec! Why did the theme change? And it’s February, not January!”
“Is someone hacking into the comm?”
A few came over to us, wondering what was going on. “The theme just now went back to Heart Shards… I’m confused; what’s going on?”
“There’s…kinda some issues right now…” I said apologetically.
One member, seeing what was happening, was holding back a grin. “I shouldn’t find this funny, but this is really ironic, considering…”
Belle yelped and rushed to Uzura, pulling at her body in vain. “Uzura-chan," she said, grunting."Stop turning it, please! I don’t think that’s a way home; I think it’s turning our comm backwards!”
“It is-zura?” She stopped and looked outside, where the Soundtrack theme was now displayed among some very confused Livejournal users.
“That’s the first theme we ever had,” I said. “This comm really did go backwards.”
“I guess it did-zura…” Uzura looked a little guilty.
Belle tried to smile and patted the girl's head gently. "It's okay, Uzura-chan."
“Well, since we’ve gotten this far,” I said, “we were meaning to bring back the old themes sometime. We can run through these to get the comm to normal; that way there won’t be any effective down time.” I looked at Belle. “How does that sound?”
"Sounds good." She smiled then looked at Uzura. "Care to stay with us for this theme, Uzura-chan?"
Uzura tapped her drum energetically. “I don’t have anywhere to go right now-zura, so why not-zura? This place looks like fun-zura!”

This Week: Soundtrack Theme!
Which piece of soundtrack music fits you best?
Stamps and survey here
The Rules:
1. Remember, you have to have been stamped (regular stamp) before applying for the theme. Exceptions can arise. New member and worried you won't be stamped in time for a specific theme? Comment here and we'll see how it goes.
2. Put 'Stamped; Soundtrack Theme' as part of your subject title instead of the usual rule.
3. You have to vote on 3 applications (since after you were last stamped -- no reusing of vote links) and put the vote links on your app before you get stamped. You can post without voting at first. Just edit as you go on. Regular and theme app votes both count.
4. For this theme, you will be stamped after you have 5 votes of the same piece. Any votes that come after those will be considered null and void. A note to voters: Do avoid voting if you see there are already 5 same character votes. ;)
5. Since this was our first theme, restamps are allowed. That is, if you've already been stamped for this theme before, you can apply again. Just put 'Restamp; Soundtrack Theme' in the title.
6. Other rules on the comm's profile still apply.
