Intro Log.

[awashmods]

Ding, dong, bell, Pussy's in the well. Who put her in? Little Johnny Thin. Who pulled her out? Little Tommy Stout. What a naughty boy was that, To try to drown poor pussy cat, Who never did him any harm, But killed all the mice in the farmer's barn.

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. But most importantly of all... you're not alone. Welcome to Awash's first intro log, everyone! Please review the FAQ and rules before playing. 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. 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. Further information can be found here at the OOC post, and don't forget to greet your fellow players here!

[ impey would have leapt straight into caramia's arms and that's exactly why lupin didn't do it tbh

one doesn't become a great thief just by donning a mask and fancy cape. With Caramia being so pushy about this - not to mention still staying there squatting in the water - Lupin was fairly certain he was going to try and grab him whether he agreed or not. The moment he hears the splash of the other man's pounce, he sidesteps with a practiced movement, his cane somehow in his hand and crossed protectively in front of himself. ]

Woah there. Let's behave ourselves. Do I need to find a lion tamer?

we're gonna fight.

[ Disappointed.

Caramia loses his balance very briefly, but manages to catch a stone on the wall to keep himself from falling. (This would be a nice stone to boost himself up with, in hindsight...) He starts pouting at Lupin, already annoyed that this stranger wasn't doing the admittedly logical thing and not letting some random guy toss him out a steep well. Honestly, though, does he not look like a trustworthy guy?! What a pain... ]

Lion tamer? More like abusers-- do you know how those guys even work?

[ Caramia gives a small sneeze, fortunately straightening himself upright enough to look away from Lupin. ]

Honestly, pollo, it's almost like you want to be stuck in this cold well. It's cold and damp and awful. [ If you thought he was letting go of his pride for sake of being confused how he got here and needing to get out of here as soon as possible, then you were dead wrong.
How was he supposed to show off prove himself--... ] Unless, you'd rather I carry you up there myself.
