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!

[And she's never seen a hat that big unattached to a cosplayer. (Maybe he is a cosplayer? If he is, he's keeping character very well.]

No name from them, either. [And that still annoys her to this day. Maybe she had to check again, maybe try and read those signs in the districts...?]
a_special_hat: (worried || that seems like a bad idea)

[personal profile] a_special_hat 2018-05-19 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
[She wouldn't be the first to accuse him of such today.]

What do we know about this place? [Also these clothes are really not designed for this sort of weather and it takes a great deal of stubborness not to start rubbing his arms...not that it'd do much good anyway since everything on him was soaking wet.]
good_ideas: (geez || Just plain wrong)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2018-05-19 06:09 am (UTC)(link)
That we're tied to the colours, apparently.

Also that it sucks.

[She gives him a frown, and then steers him towards one of the buildings.]

If you're cold, you shouldn't be wandering. Asking questions like these are what laptops are for.
a_special_hat: (angry || I know that)

[personal profile] a_special_hat 2018-05-20 03:01 pm (UTC)(link)
...it sucks? [What does that mean, exactly?]

I'm fine. [He's not.] I can't afford to waste any time. [And that should be it, right?] What is a laptop?
good_ideas: (geez || kinda worried. maybe. sorta.)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2018-05-21 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
It sucks. [What is there to get about that??]

Well none of us are going anywhere, so I guess you have all the time in the world. A laptop-

[Wait.]

...do you know what a computer is? [She feels like she's had this conversation before with someone else.]
a_special_hat: (surprise || coloured)

[personal profile] a_special_hat 2018-05-23 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
And...how does it suck?

[???]

No. I have never heard of that word.
good_ideas: (geez || just this once okay)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2018-05-23 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Some food tastes like ash, all the clothes here are ugly, and we don't have running water. How does it not suck?

[The fact that he doesn't know what a computer is makes it so much more difficult now.]

...Think of it as a book. But with unlimited information and no pages to turn.
a_special_hat: (surprise || coloured)

[personal profile] a_special_hat 2018-05-25 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
...how can food taste like ash?

[And. Hm. Running water. He only had a basic understanding of how that was set up in major cities in Turkieye. But to actually set up a system like that here...if only Zeki Pasha were here to help.]

That sounds very useful if that truly existed.

[He sounds a bit doubtful though???]
good_ideas: (geez || just this once okay)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2018-05-26 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
When the person making it can't cook? [Or here, apparently.]

It does exist. That's why there's a term for it: computer.
a_special_hat: (surprise || coloured)

[personal profile] a_special_hat 2018-05-26 04:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I apologize, it sounded as if you meant something other than product of people's failure to cook... [Because that was normal and not something that he felt was worth mentioning.]

But how does something like that work? Or is it perhaps a scroll of some sort?
good_ideas: (evil || yeah I really don't care)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2018-05-26 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
No, it's something other than the product of people's failures. A lot of food here tastes like ash. [Things tasting normal has become the anomaly and it's so sad...]

It's not a scroll. It's a machine. [And it might also be easier just to show him.]
