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!

[ There's a sharp intake of breath when the ice touches her skin, but it quickly becomes numb and the cold is appreciated. It feels nice, especially since the days have been warm. ]

Me? I'm sixteen— so whatever it is, I'll heal really fast, so you don't have to worry about this!
cupiditates: (neutral; i am gay)

[personal profile] cupiditates 2018-05-26 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Mm. Probably, yeah.

[At least he knows that younger humans heal quicker, he's not that hopeless. Greed leans back, falling on his ass so he can lean his back against the cabinet and look at her.]

Bet you'd tell me you'd be fine even if your bone was jutting your leg, though, huh?
buncho: (021)

[personal profile] buncho 2018-05-26 06:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah?

[ Yeah she would. He's not making it out to be a big deal, so Mafuyu doesn't either, locking her elbows as she leans back with her palms flat on the ground. ]

'cause all I gotta do is snap it back in place, right? If it's my arm that's broken and I can't do it with one hand, then I'll call you!
cupiditates: aw jeez bido not on the couch (talk; um)

[personal profile] cupiditates 2018-05-26 07:03 pm (UTC)(link)
. . . you ever actually broken anything before?

[The more they talk, the more he is legitimately worried for this small child.]
buncho: (073)

[personal profile] buncho 2018-05-26 07:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Lots of times when I was really little! Like my arms and stuff!

[ But they all healed up just fine, and it's long enough ago that she doesn't remember the pain anyways, so all of that ends well. Besides, there's that saying, right? ]

Something like... "What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger"? So I'm super strong!! Guess it doesn't matter to you, though-- I kicked you real hard and it didn't even look like you felt that.
cupiditates: (talk; right here)

[personal profile] cupiditates 2018-05-26 07:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, but you gotta actually keep making it into the second category, kiddo.

[UR GONNA DIE WITH THIS ATTITUDE, is what he means, but at least the swelling seems to be going down a bit . . . never doubt the power of ice, apparently.]

But nah . . . it takes a lot more than that to make me feel something. Even a knife wouldn't've done much.

[personal profile] buncho 2018-05-26 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Can you feel stuff that's not pain? Like ice on your skin, or when it's really hot out during the summer? I should've made you get the—

THE EGGS! THE EGGS ARE STILL BOILING— GO TAKE THEM OUT! THEY'RE WAY OVERDONE!
cupiditates: (holioc tumblr)

[personal profile] cupiditates 2018-05-26 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Shit--!

[That's honestly more for the way she's shouting than anything. Like he cares about the eggs? Ling will eat them regardless, so it's probably fine, but still, he gets to his feet. Fingers change into claws, and he dips them into the boiling water, pulling them out and setting them on the counter.

They are indeed way, way overdone.]
buncho: (012)

[personal profile] buncho 2018-05-26 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Mafuyu doesn't get up from her spot on the ground, mostly because she doesn't want to eat those eggs. They'd be real hard and rubbery, right...? Besides, it's just eggs; they didn't even have time to throw in other stuff to make a proper soup. ]

You can't feel stomach aches, right...? It'd be no good to let food go to waste.
cupiditates: leading into my bedroom (talk; on top of that)

[personal profile] cupiditates 2018-05-26 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeeeeah, no, I'm not eating this.

[It looks gross. But!]

I'll save it for a guy I know. He'll eat most anything, he'll like this. or at least he'll eat it, so.
buncho: (085)

[personal profile] buncho 2018-05-26 07:46 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think it'll kill him, but it's not my fault if he dies, okay?

[ It'll be fine, as long as they don't leave the eggs out and forget to put it in the fridge. But human beings are strong!! That's something Mafuyu will always believe in. ]
cupiditates: red carpet (talk; how do you make any event classy)

[personal profile] cupiditates 2018-05-26 07:55 pm (UTC)(link)
It'd take more than that to kill him, believe me. The guy's survived about ten million assassination attempts already.

[He says it almost fondly.]
buncho: (017)

[personal profile] buncho 2018-05-26 07:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Heh...

[ She sits up a little straighter, looking almost impressed at the thought. The idea of people coming after you to kill her isn't unfamiliar, if a little different in scale, so she's immediately intrigued. ]

Is he rich and famous, or is he a real criminal with lots of enemies? A bounty on his head? How much is it!?
cupiditates: who definitely isn't a friend, because i have no friends (happy; hey it's that person)

[personal profile] cupiditates 2018-05-26 08:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Nah, nah, not like that. He's an emperor! But he used to be a prince, one of about fifty, so all his siblings were after him to try and lessen the competition.

But he beat em.
buncho: (071)

[personal profile] buncho 2018-05-26 08:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Fifty siblings...!!

[ is the only thing she cares about from all that, never mind being royalty or having one's own family out to kill him, these are the shining, jealous eyes of an only child. ]

I'm so jealous! Having fifty people to play with you all the time! I'm an only child, so I never had anybody to play with growing up, it's not fair!
cupiditates: he's a piece of shit just like me (ling; this is my boyfriend)

[personal profile] cupiditates 2018-05-26 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Nah, he didn't grow up with them. It's-- hang on--

[He gets up, off to find his magic box. Finding it, he plops back down in front of her and gets to work.]

So there's his country, right? Xing.

[Exhibit A.]

Except it's divided into fifty different clans, each of them hating the others.

[Exhibit B.]

So each clan sends a woman to bang the emperor, so there's fifty heirs and nobody's got an unfair advantage to the throne, theoretically, except it doesn't really work out like that? But anyway . . . so Ling's from the Yao clan, and he beat out all his siblings because he went out to a different country, met me, and together we figured out how to bring home a hell of a prize and make him the most valuable heir.

[personal profile] buncho 2018-05-26 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Mafuyu stares at the map for about half a second before she deems it more confusing with than without. (a quarter of that second was out of pity for the amount of effort Greed put into trying to draw a diagram for her) ]

That sounds tiring, having to leave home for something like that... Where I'm from, my prefecture's split into four gangs, and we fight every once in a while and whoever wins, gets control of the territory. Wouldn't facing them directly be must easier? Doesn't look like it'd be a problem, with you there.
cupiditates: (talk; better our friendship would be)

[personal profile] cupiditates 2018-05-26 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Ahh, well. I didn't exactly make it back to Xing.

[A shrug.]

Turns out death even sticks for me sometimes, so.
buncho: (048)

[personal profile] buncho 2018-05-26 08:28 pm (UTC)(link)
What do you mean "death"? You can't be dead.
cupiditates: (talk;  when i'm dating someone)

[personal profile] cupiditates 2018-05-26 08:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Bet you a cenz I was.
buncho: (039)

[personal profile] buncho 2018-05-26 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Is that something you can eat? Bet me food. You can't prove you were dead.
cupiditates: who ginuwine is (confused; girl don't even know)

[personal profile] cupiditates 2018-05-26 08:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Aw, kid, don't make me cut off my head twice in a week . . .

[He groans it out, tipping his head to crack it. But ugh, fine . . . he reaches up, grabbing a knife and offering to her.]

C'mon. Stab me. Neatly. And don't fuck up your leg while you do it.

[Actually, you know what, he's just gonna take off his vest altogether. His shield drops from his throat, so. Go for it.]
buncho: (085)

[personal profile] buncho 2018-05-26 08:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ...

It's a joke, right? It's got to be. Mafuyu slowly gets up and rummages around for that knife. He's going to raise the shield at the last moment and she'll jam her fingers, right? It's got to be something like that. ]


Stab you, like, for real? That's supposed to prove it?
cupiditates: is red carpet (talk; my entire apartment)

[personal profile] cupiditates 2018-05-26 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
It'll kill me, won't it?

[greed this is an INFANT don't make her do this]
