Intro Log.





It's raining, it's pouring.
The old man is snoring.
He bumped his head and went to bed
And he couldn't get up in the morning.





ou wake in knee-deep water, cold as ice and stagnant, in a space that is far too echoey and spacious. It feels like a massive cave, but looking up... there's only one small, circular opening that shows grey sky and shines any sort of light.

It looks like a long trip upwards, a small cylinder with walls of brick that's just a little too high to reach, even when jumping. Getting out is probably going to be a bit of a task, especially considering the water is more than cold enough to make limbs go numb.

The dark makes it impossible to see much further, but the space seems large, all filled with water, but with no other way out, stone walls the only thing for an intrepid explorer to find. Oh, and to make things even better, it's raining today. Water from below (though thankfully only like, knee-deep), and water from above... how fun.

But most importantly of all... you're not alone.




Welcome to Awash's second intro log, everyone! Please review the FAQ and rules before playing. New characters have all woken at the bottom of the well in the middle of the town (which seems a lot bigger on the inside, somehow), and it looks like they'll have to put in some work to get out. Thankfully, they have some friends on the outside, this time.

Once out, they'll be free to explore the various locations the Town has to offer at will. Just try not to die on any of the far-too-rickety walkways.

Please feel free to ask any questions here and don't forget to greet your fellow players here!

[Okay, so Hunk's gotten used to the terrible computers that they're provided here and he's so surprised seeing someone with what looks like a decent laptop he just kind of stops mid-stroll. Then he tuuuuuuuurns and casually wanders in Annabeth's general direction, trying to peek without looking like he's trying to peek.

What is she doing there--oh.]


Did you draft up those yourself? [OKAY so he gave away that he was laptop peeking, very rude, but!!!]
athenite: (WAIT ► you did what now)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-16 03:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[ honestly, she doesn't mind too much. she's used to people peering over things, so as long as he isn't right over her shoulder he's good? ]

No, although I'm going to edit them and draft based on what I have to work with...I'm thinking a bathhouse might be the most "doable" thing if we can manage some plumbing. Sort of start from scratch rather than rework all the houses for now?

[Yeah no, this is a stranger and not Pidge so he won't hang over her shoulder or touch her stuff. He will lower to sit down next to her, though, to be hovering less.]

Yeah, I think that'd be best. Baby steps. Trying to do indoor plumbing in every house? And trying to put things like septic tanks? That'd take a loooot of time and labour.
athenite: (TEASE ► banter central)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-16 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Basically that. But a bathhouse should be more doable. I'm not saying it would be easy, but building it up from scratch in a good location...at least then there would be one place for that, you know? Are you any good at architecture or engineering? [ he knows about septic tanks at least... ]
atomicals: (pic#12290055)

[personal profile] atomicals 2018-05-16 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Yup. Engineering is my thing. [THUMBS-UP.]
athenite: (SMILE ► calm and small)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-16 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I specialize in architecture, but I'm...all-around. [ how to define divine wisdom? ] Want to work together on this, then?

[ annabeth doesn't even know his name but she is 100% down to recruit him ]

I also have a guy who can assist with plumbing.
atomicals: (pic#12290053)

[personal profile] atomicals 2018-05-16 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I would seriously love to help.

[Something to do, and it's within his sphere of interests... not as interesting as the make-up of a spaceship or a giant robot lion-tracker, but it's something! He doesn't want to be sitting around twiddling his thumbs.]

We could start with the planning, and with going around and seeing what we can make use of as far as materials go to build with. Once we've got an idea of how much we need of everything, we can go and collect it.
athenite: (FURY ►arms crossed)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-16 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
I can pull up all the plans that might work - we're obviously going to want something that relies solely on water pressure or whatever we can pull together, since electricity is a separate issue. [ from the tech level she thinks a bathhouse might be easier than electricity haha... ] But for today we can scout out locations and supplies? For water sources we might want to bring Percy.

[personal profile] atomicals 2018-05-16 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds great. [He's even already getting to his feet, pausing as he realises he's missed one thing that might be important...] I'm Hunk, by the way.
athenite: (AMUSED ► you're cute)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-17 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
Annabeth. [ she actually offers him a little grin. ] If you see a guy in the same orange shirt as me, he'll definitely be helping out on this project. If only to carry things around.
atomicals: (pic#12290053)

[personal profile] atomicals 2018-05-17 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh sweet. That ends up being my job a lot, looks like I'll have some help. [He grins too.]
athenite: (CONFIDENT ► i know i am)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-18 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
Absolutely you will. Anyway - do you know your "hex code" yet?

[ she wants to trade contact info... ]
atomicals: (pic#12288274)

[personal profile] atomicals 2018-05-18 12:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, yeah. It's f, f, e, nine hundred.

[However... Hunk pauses, scrunches up his eyebrows and says in an undertone:] I can't check hexcodes 'cause I don't have access to, like, a checker but I'm pretty sure that's super bright yellow.
athenite: (WELL ► you suck so there)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-18 06:48 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm E, 8, A, C, 4, 1. [ but she's typing his into her laptop. ] I'll message you when I get back to my place so you have it logged.

[ probs w a super brief "hi this is annabeth" thing we don't have to log ]
atomicals: (pic#12192026)

[personal profile] atomicals 2018-05-20 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks, that'd be good. Too bad we can't go in and give ourselves usernames or anything...

[JUST HEX CODES in keeping with the colour stuff, he supposes.]
athenite: (SIGH ► how do you exist)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-20 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
Gods, that'd be so much easier. I'm going to have to make a personal directory as is to keep track of everyone.
atomicals: (pic#12290070)

[personal profile] atomicals 2018-05-21 12:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Saaaame. The system seems so old too, that I'm like would it even be worth it trying to program something on this thing.

[Like, username overlays... or somesuch.]
athenite: (DISCUSS ► well actually i think)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-22 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I mean. Some sort of overlay program would be useful but I guess we have better uses of our time?
atomicals: (pic#12315448)

[personal profile] atomicals 2018-05-22 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
First we'll tackle bathhouse stuff, 'cause that's definitely a top priority. Thennn, I don't know, we could do something if we're bored one day or if it's raining so we can't do our thing.

[BATHS ARE SO IMPORTANT]
athenite: (UM ► that sounds unlikely)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-23 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
I absolutely agree with you and I'll get on the plans immediately. For now, I'll see you later.

[ BECAUSE THIS IS AT 4,000 COMMENTS AND I LIVE IN FEAR

anyway i will. google bathhouse info this week ok. ]
