It's Plot-O-Clock!
I'm fully aware that we're already in a plot, but this is just to prepare in advance. I'm thinking of starting this Next Sunday, but if people need more time, I'm more than willing to keep pushing it! Your input is very valuable!
As I mentioned in a meme, Rue has gotten back something important(not from the boxtops, from a time before that) But before I give the exact details, here's some background info to help understand. [Princess Tutu spoilers ahead.]
Rue was kidnapped as a baby by the Raven, and over the course of her life, was slowly given some of his blood, which is essentially concentrated evil. It allowed her to be manipulated into thinking only he and the Prince would ever truly love her, that she was a crow trapped in a human's body, that friendship and light were stupid concepts, etc. The slow and steady feeding of this blood gave her the ability to turn feathers into daggers, to fly, and to pretty much kick ass while wearing a tutu.
Later on in the series, Rue manages to give the Prince, Mytho, one of his emotions back (he willingly sacrificed them to defeat the Raven once, and Princess Tutu had been recollecting them to give them back to him) but she dipped it in Raven's blood. This caused Mytho to become tainted, to willingly manipulate others and treat his friends badly, to abuse Rue, and eventually, turn into a gigantic crow. Fun times. But! The canon point I took Rue from is exactly before she gave the shard back,so she doesn't know what will happen to Mytho if she gives it to him.
During one of the regains, she got back the 'birthbath' of Raven's blood, and she's decided she wants to experiment on you guys. Such a nice lady.
Those volunteered will be tricked into consuming Raven's blood, just one dose. Like slipped into their tea, or splattered into their sandwich, however you think they could be tricked into consuming it. Once it's in their system, it cannot be pulled out by magic, or by another person. The only way to get it out... is to fight it off yourself! You can get encouragement from others, of course, (like say if Zidane was turning evil, Garnet could yell I LOVE YOU and Zidane, inspired, could fight off the blood)but ultimately the battle of the wills is yours. One of those "I Know You're In There Fight"s, battling your inner demons, realizing how much people care, etc.
So what happens to you when you suddenly start having Raven's blood?
You could think of it as an AU evil version of your character, the 'shadow' version of yourself in a fighting game, and so on. This is where you can really get creative, so feel free to use this post to thread ideas with others! Plot evil ideas together, or come up with a plan to help return your hero to normal. As for how this starts out, i'm thinking of Rue hosting a tea party, and slipping it into drinks. however, not everyone drinks tea and such, so if you have a better idea, feel free to speak it.
Whether your characters realize this is Rue's fault or not is also entirely up to you ;3 So ask me any questions you'd like, volunteer characters and ideas, and thread out how our tragic stories will play.
EDIT: OH YEAH AND ACTUAL TIMING DETAILS. Unless so wished to change, Next Sunday Rue will make a post about having a tea party, Monday will have a log set up (it is not mandatory to tag it, just in case people want CR) , and from then on, feel free to either take your time with character being evil or jump right into it. My responsibility for it ends once your character takes the blood :3

So what happens to you when you suddenly start having Raven's blood?
- All those positive views on life? Gone. You're cynical. Friendship and true love? HA, WHAT SILLY IDEAS.
- Your friends and family are mere pawns for your needs. You don't care what happens to them, but you may pretend to put on a show to trick them. It's so much fun ripping apart their ideals.
- You enjoy making others miserable and depressed. You are superior to everyone else. You have the right to do whatever you want, and treat others however you want.
- The final stage is growing feathers out of your skin, and turning into a human/whatever you are sized crow. (I'm aware I'm saying you ate raven and turn into crow. I'm not mixing them up. This is just a weird show.)
