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!

[it's hard to explain the draw that brings gran to the same building that Kyle's wandered towards. nothing about this town made any specific sense to begin with, so, by going on instinct alone, he travels to wherever his heart feels like it's right to go. the door's already open by the time he's there, and as the curiosity grabs him, he finds his way towards the inside.

then there's the whole issue of... trying not to scare the kid or jump up on him by surprise accidentally, so he lingers back by the door a few moments. he probably shouldn't worry too much about it, but he doesn't want to make an awkward encounter just by being there.

okay.

this'll do.

he knocks his fist against the frame of the door, as if it were closed to begin with. totally normal.]

Hello? Anyone in here?

[The house is interesting enough--Kyle isn't sure why; after wandering around the town for so long, he can't place why this house in particular is so interesting in comparison to everything else. His answer comes quickly enough after poking around in one of the bedrooms: there's a laptop, waiting for a password to be set. A random laptop, turned on, with his name on the screen.

What the fuck.

He's wandering out of the room with the laptop in his hands when he hears Gran's knock. Looks up and over, seeing him in the doorway.]

Do you live here?

[His eyes are wide as he asks; he might have found a laptop with his name, but he certainly feels like he's been caught red-handed.]
