Intro Log.

[awashmods]

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!

Two others, who I guess I can cook for sometimes? But I didn't make plans to do so. I do have the room, though. I can kill them, too.

[buncho]

Don't kill your roommates.

[athenite]

I meant the geese.

[ THAT A DIFFERENT CHARACTER I PLAY IS CATCHING shenanigans ]

[buncho]

[ SHE REALLY HONESTLY THOUGHT ANNABETH WAS GOING TO MURDER HER ROOMMATES......

so it's with a huge sigh of relief when that all gets clarified. ]

Oh thank god, I don't want to be an accomplice to murder. Can't have that on my record.

[athenite]

I only kill monsters. And animals I intend to eat? Just, like, for future reference.

[ she's a good guy!

if scary ]

[buncho]

Is that often...? You can go to the grocery store and get steamed buns instead of killing things!

[ The only things Mafuyu's ever killed were bugs, but that was also done with a lot of nonstop screaming. ]

[athenite]

It's only when I'm camping. Or...here, I guess. They don't seem to have a grocery store.

[buncho]

How do people live without grocery stores?

[ There aren't any vending machines around here either, according to Dave. Mafuyu had always thought her greatest concern for not being able to feed herself is not having the money to buy meals, but she's never accounted for the situation where she has pocket money, and nowhere to spend it. ]

Hey, can I like... eat here all the time and I do stuff for you in return? I don't know anybody else that can cook!

[athenite]

I don't mind. [ BRUCE AND LING? MIGHT? but nah probably not batman likes kids and ling can deal. ] I can teach you to cook, if you want?
