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!

You were right the first time! And I guess? We're all stuck here together, so it makes sense to help each other out if we can.

It's Izuku Midoriya! I'm in the Flavo district, the one with the little cottages. I can wait out on the porch for you so you'll find it more easily.

josuke higashikata. it's nice to meet you, izuku.

that place sounds way better that ruga, where everything just looks really run-down and boring. honestly, it's barely been a day and i'm already missing home.
[ and his mom. he misses his mom. ]

well, i'll head out now. see you in a few.

[ After some wandering, Josuke will reach the Flavo district. He kind of forgot to ask Izuku what he actually looks like, and with how he's away from the computer he can't exactly do that, so he's just going to be walking around until he finds a guy on a porch. The first guy he calls out to happens to be the wrong guy, but second time's the charm! ]

Izuku! Hey, you are Izuku right? Please don't tell me I got the wrong guy again ...

[personal profile] inheritance 2018-05-16 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
That's me! Higashikata-san, right? [Izuku straightens up from where he'd been leaning against the wall, giving Josuke a bright smile.]

Eh... wrong guy again? Did you try to talk to someone else first?

[Whoops. He would've attached a picture of himself if he could, but alas, these laptops are pretty old and not helpful aside from the forum.]
nipzips: (soft spoken with a broken jaw)

[personal profile] nipzips 2018-05-17 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, kinda did. The only thing I had to go on was that you'd be a guy on a porch, after all ...

[ And that person was mean to him? So sad. A picture would definitely have helped, but Josuke doesn't even know how to attach one himself, so he's not faulting Izuku for this or anything. ]

Oh also, just 'Josuke' is fine. 'Higashikata-san's what people used to call my grandpa when he was still around. [ And his grandpa actually commanded authority, so? Josuke is just a teen. Anyway, now that he can see Izuku in the flesh, he's catching on that the guy is pretty tiny. ]

[personal profile] inheritance 2018-05-17 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
[This is way too casual!! You can't just ask for first name basis right away?? Being the polite guy that he is, Izuku just looks at him wide-eyed before stubbornly sticking to his habits.]

Higashikata-kun. [That's...slightly better?] Um, here! Come on in. I'll grab towels and the clothes for you.
nipzips: (and if it happens again)

[personal profile] nipzips 2018-05-17 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
[ Um, Josuke is on first name basis with everyone, okay! That's just life. Quietly: ]

'Josuke's really just fine ... [ He's not used to being called 'Higashikata' at all, because everyone back home just calls him by his first name. He won't push the matter though. This guy really is a bit like Koichi, he's got that nervous energy to him and he's also so polite. ]


Alright. Thanks for inviting me. You staying here with anyone?
inheritance: (02)

[personal profile] inheritance 2018-05-17 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. There's Sorey-kun, Mochizuki-kun, and Todoroki! [Izuku smiles as he lists them all off.] At first it was just Sorey-kun, Mochizuki-kun, and me because we got assigned to this place together. And then Todoroki moved in later.

[Oh yeah. Towels! Izuku hurries off to grab some for Josuke, offering them to him while he puts another bundle of cloth on the table.]
nipzips: (fam)

[personal profile] nipzips 2018-05-18 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
[ This Izuku, he's so thoughtful. Josuke accepts the towel and starts stripping off his drenched outer coat. ] Thanks. [ Don't ask him why his inner shirt has strangely-placed zippers. ]

I don't know those guys. What are they like? You getting along with them?
inheritance: (02)

[personal profile] inheritance 2018-05-18 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
They're great. [He says this about most people, though.] Sorey-kun and Mochizuki-kun are really nice. And Todoroki's one of my best friends from home!

[As Josuke's toweling off, Izuku nudges the bundle of cloth over toward him.]

Here. See if these fit you. [Like Izuku warned him, they're pretty old fashioned. But they seem large enough to fit him! Nice.]
nipzips: (getting perfect is what i live for)

[personal profile] nipzips 2018-05-18 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
[ He totally wants to know more people, so he might ask more questions, but first ... ]

Ah, thanks. But this is so ... [ Josuke holds up the garment, the expression on his face clearly deflating. While he doesn't want to be the asshole who looks a gift horse in the mouth, he's also finding it hard to mask how he feels. This looks so ... lame! ]

I ... I really appreciate it. [ Sad. He's going to lose his nonexistent street cred now. ]

[personal profile] inheritance 2018-05-18 01:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[He knows, Josuke. He knows.] Eheh....I did warn you. Everything around this place is like this...unfortunately. I don't really like wearing them if I can help it, but they're handy if you just need something dry to change into.

[Then, he's perking up again.] Actually, Emma-chan might be able to help you if you want to fix it up into something you're more used to. She helped me make my tanktops after Nijimura-kun and I tore some shirts up.
nipzips: (i can't believe i haven't used 'buddy')

[personal profile] nipzips 2018-05-19 04:16 pm (UTC)(link)
So you're partially responsible for Okuyasu's new outfit, huh? The shirt itself is pretty lame, but ripped sleeves make everything cooler.

[ Teenage boys should be banned from fashion. Also, at this point he's not at all surprised that Izuku knows Okuyasu too. He is curious to know if Okuyasu also thinks this guy is basically Koichi #2, though. That's highly important. ]

Is Emma really good at sewing? I think this shirt could be improved with an open chest. [ Or maybe Josuke can just not button the chest... Open chests are really cool and smexy, alright? ]

[personal profile] inheritance 2018-05-19 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[Izuku laughs.] Actually, it was all Nijimura-kun's idea. I went along with it and Emma-chan helped us fix them up afterward.

[.....hold on.] Eh...wait! You know Nijimura-kun?
nipzips: (MY BOO)

[personal profile] nipzips 2018-05-20 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
Yup! He's actually my best friend from home. We're pretty much inseparable.

[ Literally. They stick to each other like barnacles. ]

It's great to see how many friends he's made. The guy looks kinda shady, yeah, but he's got a big heart!
inheritance: (05)

[personal profile] inheritance 2018-05-22 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure he'll be really happy to see you, Higashikata-kun!

[And he gets a tilt of the head here.] I think he looks just fine. You're right about him having a big heart, though!
nipzips: (sugar)

[personal profile] nipzips 2018-05-23 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
[ Friends bully friends, it’s just the way things work. Okuyasu also makes fun of Josuke for being afraid of small, harmless reptiles. ]

We actually started off as enemies. Well, he had his reasons for what he did … but he ended up helping me out in the end. That’s how we became friends.

[ Somehow. Jojos are always ready to forgive people after almost being killed by them?? Anyway, Josuke starts stripping off his outer jacket now. He’s wearing a tank top with weird nipple-zippers inside. Don’t ask. ]

[personal profile] inheritance 2018-05-24 04:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Enemies, really? [Izuku hums thoughtfully.]

I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. Stuff like that happens! I started off on the wrong foot with a couple of my friends, too, and now they're the best friends I could have!
nipzips: (hey bitch)

[personal profile] nipzips 2018-05-25 12:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh. Was this 'Todoroki' dude one of them? [ Off the shirt goes, and he's drying off. Josuke then slips on the shirt that Izuku had given him, and looks himself over in some disappointment. ]

Uh. How does it look? Honest opinion. [ Bad. Nobody should wear a pompadour and a tunic at the same time. ]
