Event Five.
 | |
In dark and dust and creaky sounds, Waiting for her to say, “Turn around.” This might not be just what she meant, But me – I’m so obedient. | |
Welcome to Awash's fifth event log, everyone! Further information on this event can be found here at the OOC post. This log can be used for either phase of the event; please just mark clearly when it is happening and which colors can respond to the prompt. | |
t first, it seems a little too simple for a true test of morals. Don't eat, don't take, don't look? The most basic of requirements. And with guides, it isn't too difficult at all to avoid those obvious pitfalls.
aint no party like a loser party
After the minute of body horror as he feels himself disappearing, the drama at least seems to be over, because this next town he's in happens to be exactly the same. No, he didn't hella die because of hair gel. That's really good to know.
When he sees the familiar head of miscoloured hair (why is Okuyasu a deviant-art OC), Josuke's practically dashing toward him, too ecstatic for words. He's less dramatic and loud as he was when Okuyasu fucking died in his arms, but it's close. ]
OKUYASU! What the fuck, man?! That's where you were the whole time? You asshole! [ Intense dash-hug. Here we go. He's even happy to see the stupid-ass frog.
Also, Okuyasu might notice that Josuke's hair is down at this point. The pomp was strong, but not strong enough to last more than a week without gel. ]
josuke must be the host of such an event......
Anyway, it's the dude!!!]
Josuke!! What the hell do you mean, the whole time?! I've been looking for you for two days, you bastard!
[Get over here and get noogied mid-hug, you jerk!!!]
yes, please rsvp
[ His hair is already down. It's not like he has a pompadour to protect from Okuyasu's aggressive noogies. He's pretty long on the top too, so now that hair is just tumbling over his eyes and he looks like an emo, probably. ]
I've been looking for you! Ugh ... [ So noogied. So misery. And he's also way closer to Eminem than he wants to be. ] I-I'm glad nothing actually happened to you.
[ Because? It's only been a few months before he saw Okuyasu die. The memory's still fresh. Don't do him like this, homie. ]
no subject
He made stupid jokes back then, but in retrospect that was pretty weird of him to do?! So. To curtail his stupid joke instinct, he latches on like this, to prove quite undeniably that he is here and he is just fine. And also because noogies are funny.]
I was stuck wandering around with a bunch of nerds and fake food! Some prissy princess even lectured me, man! [huff!—but okay] Are you okay? This ain't the hairstyle of a man who had a good couple days.
[hair is the barometer for stress]
no subject
Don't even remind me. [ With the sulky look on his face and the bangs obscuring his eyes, Josuke really does look like an emo kid right now. He lets out a sigh, sweeping that hair back so he can at least see. Yeah, some of the exhaustion he feels is a petty irritation at the state of his appearance, but most of it is a result of the worry that's been on his mind for the past few days. They barely understood this place or how it worked, and it's evident at this point that all the past inhabitants had disappeared for one reason or another. It's hard for the mind not to wander, even more so when he's familiar with the feeling of grief that came with losing a best friend.
Seeing Okuyasu again is like a weight off his shoulders, and it also makes him optimistic for his other friends here. Josuke will stay here latched onto his buddy, but he's finally finding enough energy to crack a smile. ] I'm fine, dude. It was pretty much the same for me -- Mr. Greed and I went around looking for people. [ haven't threaded it but i assume... that happened .... anyway forces u to CROSS STREAMS ]
[ Okay, the princess comment does make him laugh. ] Did you get your ass kicked by a princess?
no subject
Nuh uh! She gave me a hard time, sure, but then she was helping me look for your sorry ass. You're welcome, by the way.
[Not that he found Josuke, but he looked, and so he deserves credit for that. For sure. Plus, this is more socially acceptable joking around, instead of making fun of Josuke for crying or whatever... this is the good end. He'll even cut him some slack on his terrible hair, but at least get some bobby pins.]
You see anyone else when you got back?
no subject
[ He's too tired to be teenage boy-level tsundere right now. Just let him feel soft inside that you bothered to look for him, and pat you on the back, Okuyasu. ]
You're one of the first I've seen so far, but oh -- I kinda bumped into Ochako while I was going around, searching for you. [ The!! Almost-gf!!! This is clearly important enough to mention. ]
no subject
Ah, but Ochako--] She okay?
[She's not back yet.... he's stressed and keeping it lowkey, it's fine.]
You didn't say anything weird about me, did you?
no subject
[ Off to Okuyasu's house they go, even if he's been here every day for the past few days just checking to see if his friend has miraculously returned. He's pretty much got the directions memorized at this point. Josuke gives Iida a bit of a nervous look, still finding him creepy as heck even if the flower crowns do help, but he's seen him too many times to really be scared of him. Poor guy, though. When is he going to return to normal? ]
Yeah, I was sure to tell her about that time you ran into a wall. [ He's joking!! Or is he? we'll find out .... once my thread with ochako progresses further ... ]
She was fine the last I saw her. I started to disappear the moment I [ Awkward pause. ] took that bottle of gel, so it's likely she just hasn't failed the quest yet.
no subject
also WAIT]
Whoa whoa whoa, what is that I just heard? Gel? Dude?
[Please, explain your folly. In detail.]
no subject
[ He knows he's going to get shit on for this, but is there really a point hiding it at this point? ] Alright, alright, fine. I failed the quest because I saw a bottle of hair-gel and acted before I could think.
[ Watch him crumple to the ground in embarrassment and regret. As if the world wants to shit on him further, his bangs start falling all over his eyes again too. ]
no subject
Damn, I dunno whether to be impressed by your dedication or embarrassed to be your friend! Gel... c'mon!
[Now he's nudging him in the shoulder with his knee. Josuke. Josuke. You're embarrassing!!]
no subject
Look at my hair, dude! [ It's flopping down again so he haphazardly slicks it to the back. ] Can you honestly blame me?
[ how is okuyasu doing .... does he still have his tiny pomp ... ]
no subject
Josuke gets one more nudge before Okuyasu eases up for real. Ha!!]
This is a trick question? You're not gonna like anything I say to that!
no subject
anyway, it's time to table the turns!! ]
What about you, dude? If you're here, it means you failed too. What was it that did you in? Did you see a huge plate of spaghetti just lying around?
no subject
Shut up, not eating for a week [it wasn't a week] is way harder than your thing!
[GRUMBLE MUMBLE....] It was ice cream.
