Event Two.

[awashmods]

Dust if you must, but bear this in mind, Old age will come and it's not kind. And when you go, as go you must, You yourself will make more dust!

t hasn’t been long since you’ve arrived. The dust has settled, so to speak. And there is… a lot of dust. The town is in disrepair. Some efforts have gone into making it a bit better, but it’s going to be a lot of work, there’s no denying that. There are only a few livable buildings right now, and even those are prone to letting the rain in, or missing stairs to the clearly present second floor, floors crumbling or creaking. So it is that after a week or so to get used to their new living quarters.... There’s finally activity on the forum. Activity that doesn’t come from any of the people living here. There’s a stickied forum post, and in it, a single post, from a user FFFFFF: All-endearing cleanliness, Virtue next to godliness, Easiest, cheapest, needfull’st duty, To the body health and beauty; Who that’s human would refuse it, When a little water does it? Requirements: Everyone They only have a bit of time to try to figure out what, exactly, it wants from them -- and then things begin to happen. Welcome to Awash's first event log, everyone! Further information on this event can be found here at the OOC post. You are welcome to start your own posts or logs for this event as well. If there are any questions, please ask them here. Thank you!

[Fushimi, you can't just make a statement like that and expect him to not follow up on it... he blinks, tilting his head, though he looks more curious than judgmental.]

Why do you say that...? Isn't it natural to get to know people in a situation like this?

Is it...? [ Fushimi looks dubious more than anything else. ]

The only thing unifying us is that we're all here together. That isn't a basis to get to know people. [ Fushimi is exceedingly antisocial and would really like to not interact with like, 85% of people on a regular basis. ]

... It isn't?

[New to him, really... Minato looks contemplative more than anything as he looks at Fushimi.]

I thought that facing a common goal or enemy was something that helped people bond together.

[ Fushimi shrugs up a shoulder. He doesn't even seem like he's trying to be actively negative or malicious -- just like this is obvious to him, and he doesn't understand why everyone else is different, when it comes down to it. ]

I don't care about making bonds with other people. [ They'll only let you down, but Fushimi knows better than to say that outloud. Someone exceedingly positive and friendly will manage to hear him from within a five mile radius and rocket over to tell him about the power of friendship or something and he'll choke on it and die. ]

If they're useful, they're useful; getting to know them doesn't change that.
