Intro Log.
 | |
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. | |
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. | |
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.
no subject
Definitely. I've never seen anything like it before. [Now back on her feet and looking... slightly improved, she reaches down to dust the weird gray dust from her costume.] If you go exploring, please be careful. The only people I've seen have been people from the well, but there's no telling what may be out there. And maybe try to find someone to come with you? I would, but--
[She gestures back to the well, shrugging slightly.]
I think there are still a lot of people down there who need help.
no subject
Making sure that he's okay, that he doesn't do anything dumb now that she's helped him like this...
He nods, offering up a quiet:]
I'll be fine, don't worry. I'll be really careful.
[And...admittedly, there's not a lot he's too afraid of or concerned with anymore. More importantly, though:]
Are you going to be okay doing that more?
no subject
I'll be fine. Really! Some of my friends are helping people get out, too, so it shouldn't be too much longer until everyone is safe. [And then she can rest! Except not really, because getting people out is only the first step. But! There's no sense in worrying him even further!] We should help each other as best we can, right?
no subject
He understands the concept of overdoing it for the sake of everyone around you; that's what they have to do when it's down tot he wire, to help people.
But still...
...]
You're right. Okay... I'll try to help how I can too, then.
[But he won't try to stop her from doing her thing; instead, he nods to her briefly in thanks, and then he's wandering off? Okay sure.
He's not going far though--he has A Goal in mind, and true to what he would expect, there are cups (old and dusty and needing cleaning) and supplies in the houses nearby. He cleans up the cup and returns, and so when she comes back up with her newest tagalong, Minato will be chilling by the well, waiting.
And he'll offer her the cup.]
It's just water, but... at least it's clean.
[As in: from a source of water other than well water that everyone has been standing in.]
I didn't see any food that would settle well on an upset stomach though--sorry. [But if Ochako is helping everyone else, then someone else should be helping Ochako, right? Even if just in little ways.]
no subject
It only takes a short time for her to pop up again, and she instantly spots his familiar face. Trouble, perhaps? Or maybe he's just waiting for more people to come up top? As nauseous as she is, she still shoots him a concerned look, ready to ask him if everything is okay--but then, of course, he hands her the glass of water, and her concern flies right out of the window.]
This--
[--is for me? She takes the offered cup, blinking up at him--and then quickly shaking her head as he continues. Not a great move for her nauseous self, but whatever.]
No, don't apologize! This is a huge help! [She shoots him a grateful smile, her brain finally catching up to these recent events.] Thank you, Minato. It was really kind of you to find this for me.
[RANK UP.]
no subject
Hopefully it'll help at least a little.]
I should be the one thanking you, I think. Thanks for helping me out of there--and for helping everyone else, too, even though it's tough on you.
[In all honesty?]
That's a brave thing to do. [SOCIAL LINK ESTABLISHED hell yeah, off to a good start.]
no subject
...Which tastes so weird. This place is just the worst.]
R-Refreshing! [It's not a complete lie; it is nice and cool, so she'll just press it against the side of her face.] Was this easy to find? I haven't had a chance to go in the buildings yet, but I hope there's plenty of supplies in them. Enough for everyone...
no subject
No, it wasn't that bad--but I think finding more supplies might be harder.
[Like...]
The house I went into had cups and things like that, and water stored away, but the only food I could find was...things in cans, or things that don't really go bad.
[And theoretically incredibly old, but maybe still edible...?]
We'll probably have to work pretty hard to find fresh food...
[R e g r e t. He could go for a burger right now AND THERE ARE NO BURGERS.]
no subject
Maybe. But finding water is a really good first step! I don't think anyone will want to drink water they've been standing in. [She hums quietly in thought, sitting up a bit straighter to peer into the distance.] Plus when I was looking around earlier, I thought I saw trees in the distance. If it's a forest, we should be able to find something in it. There might be animals, too, but...
[She pulls a face, letting that sentence trail off as she takes another sip of the water. Please don't suggest killing them...]
no subject
SO AT LEAST...THERE'S THAT.]
... Maybe eggs? If there are chickens or birds. That could help with protein and things.
no subject
Oh yeah, that's true! What a great idea. [Preternaturally calm and clearly very level-headed. He's definitely nice to have around in a situation like this one.] Everything will turn out just fine.
[Polishing off the rest of the water with an appreciative sigh, she sets the empty glass on the ground between and moves to stand back up.]
I guess I should back down there! The sooner we get everyone out, the better. But thanks again for your help, Minato.
no subject
But he just nods in response, shifting to stand up more properly too. There's plenty left to be done, so while he's glad she took a bit of a breather by chatting with him, he's not surprised that she's flinging herself back into the fray like this.
All they can do is their best right now, right?]
I think I should be the one thanking you. [Honestly!! But all he offers is a bit of a bow of his head, and:] Thank you for your help, Ochako-san. Please try not to overdo it down there.
[But he'll trust for now that she knows her own limits, and won't fuss beyond that, straightening to start exploring properly on his own--he has to do his own part too, after all.
Fight hard, Ochako...!!]
