So Your Character Needs a Little Extra…Encouragement?
So your character maybe isn’t bonding with others as fast as you (or Aphrodite) would like. Or maybe they’re pulling away and need something to make them open up again. Or maybe Aphrodite just decided to give your character a little nudge, as she does every once in a while.
That’s where “encouragements” come in. Basically they are pre-determined “personal events” that you the player can use on your character whenever you want. It is not a game-wide event. It is more like a curse that JUST affects your character (and maybe one or a couple others if this is a plot between players). The list can and will expand as the game and player suggestions do. You can pick any of them to use that you want, but you can only use 1 Encouragement every 2 weeks. And the same one cannot be used twice in a row. We’ll leave the rest of the judgment up to your discretion, but if we see you using the same ones over and over each month we may have to ask you to take a break on them for a while.

Possible Encouragements
Your loves word is law and whatever they tell you to do, you do it after saying "As You Wish." And if it's more than one person that you're into at the moment, "As You Wish" might just be the only thing you say all day.
"Honestly, now."
Today you feel the need to share. And in some cases, over-share. You want nothing more than to tell Aphrodisias at large about people you've been with, how good (or godawful) it was, and people on the island you'd really love to spend a night with. No comment is too awkward. Until tomorrow.
"Sexts from last night."
This one is self explanatory. They can be accidentally posted over the entire network or sent to specific people. Whatever the case, you really can't help yourself right now.
"Worst lines ever."
Are your legs tired? Because you've been running through my mind all day. (to be edited later)
"Breakfast/lunch/dinner/whatever in bed."
You know what? That person you care for has been working so hard lately. Or maybe they haven't. Whatever the case, you want to pamper the hell out of them for the entire day. From breakfast in bed to helping them out in the shower (unless they say no), it's all about them today and you want to go above and beyond just for them.
