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!

In the woods. You just gotta go make some noise and they'll come right out.

[source: the last dumb thing he did.]
athenite: (OH ► you can keep talking)

[it's a dumb idea, he knows it's a dumb idea, and yet he's thrilled she's just going for it without questioning it... cool points acquired. off to the woods!!]

I'm Okuyasu, by the way.

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-18 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Annabeth Chase. You've got a lot of experience hunting monsters?
pursestrings: (147)

[personal profile] pursestrings 2018-05-18 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[things okuyasu has fought:

-electricity
-transmission tower
-ghost who is a photograph
-dinner
-cat

...so yeah, for sure.]


Hell yeah, I can knock 'em down. I took on one of these spider chicks the other day! As you can see, only one of us made it back.
athenite: (AMUSED ► guess you're not so bad)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-19 06:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, great. So, what kinds of abilities did they have?

[ internally: i hate spiders i hate spiders i hate spiders ]
pursestrings: (020)

[personal profile] pursestrings 2018-05-19 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Uhh, y'know, webs and stuff. [Spider aesthetic is a power--] Some kinda poison, too.
athenite: (WELL ► you suck so there)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-20 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
So just...asking, but they don't have, like. Smaller spider minions or anything?
pursestrings: (187)

[personal profile] pursestrings 2018-05-21 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
If they do, I sure as hell didn't notice 'em. [...] Wait, you're not afraid of spiders, are you? You know this is a big spider chick.
athenite: (Default)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-21 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not. [ she...is... ] Don't worry; I've fought the biggest spider lady there is.

[ but also spiders mcfuckin hate children of athena ]

I'm only asking because smaller ones always bite me.
pursestrings: (156)

[personal profile] pursestrings 2018-05-21 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
Sure. [she so is. he can feel it. whatever, not a problem, probably!] I think we're good to go. I can always get rid of the little guys if any show up.

[irresponsible use of Stand? maybe.]

Who's the biggest spider lady there is?
athenite: (NEUTRAL ► stare.)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-21 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
Ever heard of Arachne? [ you know. greek mythology. ]
pursestrings: (i didn't stop tagging to make this)

[personal profile] pursestrings 2018-05-21 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
[gurl you think he read a book ever about greek mythology?]

Nope.
athenite: (GESTURE ► but no.)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-21 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
Well. She is - was - the mother of all spiders. And she didn't much care for me.

[ so probably it won't take them too long to find evil spider ladies in the woods. ]
pursestrings: (141)

[personal profile] pursestrings 2018-05-21 01:59 pm (UTC)(link)
So you're spider enemy number one? And I'm going around with you for this?

[ennnh... whatever] Sure, whatever. Tell 'em your name and we'll be in and outta here in no time!
athenite: (ARMS ► crossed debate time)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-22 05:18 pm (UTC)(link)
That is pretty much an accurate way of putting it.

[ AND INTO THE WOODS WE ARE PROBABLY and lo and behold have you started to see webby bits

it's the 22nd we have an event this week i'm Tryin ]
pursestrings: (060)

[personal profile] pursestrings 2018-05-22 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[damn check OUT those webby bits. Okuyasu is checking them out.]

Last time these showed up, they pulled back when I yanked on 'em. [.....so. With that brave battle experience behind him, he yanks on some fantastical spider webby bits again. Pulling the web, like poking the hornets' nest but with spiders.]
athenite: (Default)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-22 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[ oh my GOD okuyasu.

annabeth draws her dagger, and for some reason keeps? a yankee's cap at the ready in her back pocket?

AND LO AND BEHOLD TWO SPIDER LADIES SKITTER ON DOWN pissed the hell off at okuyasu.

annabeth shudders but stands her ground. ]


That is way too many legs. [ mutant spider amounts of legs ]
pursestrings: (028)

[personal profile] pursestrings 2018-05-22 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[aw, fuck.]

Man, there was only one the last time-- [watch him try to shake the web strings off his hand, which goes about as poorly as one would expect. the spider chicks approach... Okuyasu looks over his shoulder, hello, where's his backup??]

Hey, stab something!
athenite: (REMARK ► o no u didn't.)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-23 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
[ his backup - DISAPPEARS BEFORE HIS EYES as she slams the cap on her head.

a mystery!

but also a half-minute later one of the spider chicks has a dagger wound on their side. wow!! ]
pursestrings: (003)

[personal profile] pursestrings 2018-05-23 10:18 am (UTC)(link)
[oh my god, it's her hat? this is brand new information and Okuyasu kind of hates it.]

For real? Can't believe this— The Hand!

[he definitely doesn't need to call out the Stand's name, but since she's invisible and stabbing stuff, he'll add some helpful context clues to explain the sudden presence of a large, floating bodybuilder with a tin head that takes a massive swing at the other spider chick, knocking it off balance.]
athenite: (SHOUT ► STOP THIS)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-23 03:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[ look some demigods have pens that turn into swords, some have new york yankees caps that make them invisible. there are two types of people!

also since he knocks that other chick off balance with...........

a magic pokemon summon

annabeth will go stab that spider lady also.

this should actually go pretty quick because the approaching captcha fears my little heart with FEAR ]
pursestrings: (084)

[personal profile] pursestrings 2018-05-23 03:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[excuse you annabeth it's a STAND and it is his SPIRIT.....

thankfully he is a seasoned veteran at spider killing by now, so he knows how this is done. one of these spider chicks will get stabbed to hell and the other one will get, uh, sent to the void in giant fist-sized pieces, but they both look equally gross and bloody in the end.

it's a very dramatic fight. where is she. take off the hat!!]
athenite: (SCOLD ► you are so dumb i swear)

[personal profile] athenite 2018-05-23 03:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ok, ur right, it's a spirit pokemon...

anyway. annabeth takes off her hat at the end? and she is...actually she looks fine as she folds the cap and shoves it in her back pocket again. not too worse for the wear! maybe a lil spider blood on her but she'll live. ]


Good work. So, where were you keeping the giant muscle man?
pursestrings: (026)

[personal profile] pursestrings 2018-05-23 03:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[she's less of a mess than okuyasu, to her credit, but he's not very, hm, adept at dodging spider blood overall. it's fine, nobody died! nobody with the right number of legs.]

Nowhere, I guess? That's a Stand, and he's like... me, kinda.

[watch, he lifts a hand and muscle man does the same thing in perfect sync. obviously not a pokemon!!!]
