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.
town
[Ultimately, Minato's just ended up leaning against one of the buildings, looking around in quiet (very quiet) astonishment. He's never seen anything like this, but given that everyone else seems extremely surprised to be here, he's assuming this isn't just an unfortunate afterlife thing.]
It's sort of like all of the color was just...removed or something. [That's not even possible.
...Right?]
Even the trees and the sky...
no subject
I know... It's pretty depressing. Whose bright idea was this?
[ Lupin crosses his arms, shaking his head disapprovingly. The lightness of the action contrasts with a serious-looking demeanor; he's staying calm, but this is all alarming, frankly. ]
At least I know it's not me. I was worried I'd been poisoned.
no subject
It's fine though; for now... Minato is thoroughly distracted by that.]
Poisoned...? Poison can do something like that? [Whoa.]
no subject
[ magic isn't REAL!! ]
no subject
Oh... yeah, maybe that's it. [#doubt.]
I guess as long as we're still breathing, it could always be worse. [Especially when Lupin brings up things like poison. At least they're alive?]
no subject
Don't say that out loud, or you'll jinx us, my friend. [ it's definitely going to get worse, he has a bad feeling. ] Let's just hope that we don't turn black and white, too. Something about it feels wrong.
no subject
... That doesn't sound healthy at all. [WHITE AND BLACK... No thanks, he's fond of his blue trademark.]
I guess finding a way out of here should be our first priority then. [Just in case that's really a Thing.]
no subject
[ as far as he can tell, they're surrounded by woods and water, and he's not keen on blindly setting off into either. ]
no subject
At least the town is vaguely civilization-like.]
That might be tough... I found some books in one of the buildings, but... [He shrugs.] Either they had nothing written in them, or...
[The words were the same lack of color as everything else, so he couldn't read them anyway? Yeah.]
no subject
[ okay, that's really sketchy. He's never heard of anything like that. ]
If this is a prank, it's a very complicated one.
no subject
[He's unsure about it!]
I really don't think it's a prank at all. I mean, looking at the entire town...
[...He shrugs.]
It's just too much.
no subject
Were there more than that? If you remember where you found them, I'd like to take a look.
[ there might be a clue; Lupin likes to think he might be able to find something the average person couldn't. ]
no subject
Hm... there might've been. I don't mind showing you where, it wasn't far.
[Just one of those random houses.]
This way. [Maybe Lupin really will be able to discern more clues--Minato would be able to believe it. Lupin is Dapper.]
no subject
I appreciate it. [ a beat. ] My name is Lupin, by the way. And you are?
no subject
Lupin III mostly let's be real here, but with the situation as it is, he can't even begin to really place it.]My name's Minato.
[Rolling with it for now! He's sure it'll come to him eventually and surely has no relevance whatsoever to anything.]
It's nice to meet you, Lupin-san. [And in all honesty:] I hope you'll be able to figure out more than I did from them.
no subject
I can't make any promises, but I'll do my best. I like to think I'm not half-bad at solving riddles.
[ if it's that simple, it'll be nice. There's got to be a clue on what's going on somewhere in the town, and he's determined to find it. ]
In any case, it's nice to meet you, too, Minato. Are you from Japan, perhaps?
no subject
That's right. [A beat. He pauses...and shakes his head a little to himself, rueful. (Stop sleeping in class and pay more attention, Minato.)]
Sorry, where are you from...? I can't really place your name. [It sounds foreign, no doubt, and yet that nagging familiarity muddles things.]
no subject
[ he's never been to Japan, nor was he planning on going there anytime soon... nor did he see all that many Japanese people in London. So what does that mean? Maybe that weird kid from before was right. ]
I wonder how the two of us ended up in the same place. Even if we met in the middle, that's a lot of distance to cover.
no subject
You're right. [He's contemplative for a moment as he glances carefully at the houses along this particular pathway; they all start to look the same without color as a defining characteristic.]
So if everyone here was kidnapped, it was...done all over the world, all at once. ...Somehow.
[Which is such a massive undertaking that it makes Minato's head hurt to even think about it.]
no subject
[ ... there's one more thing on his mind. Lupin pauses as he tries to think of a way to word it that doesn't make him sound mad. ]
There's another thing I'd like to ask you. What year is it?
no subject
... It's 2010. Does that help...?
[For whatever Lupin's concerned about.]
no subject
Well... Not exactly. You see, I thought it was 1853.
[ he doesn't know where he is or when he is. ]
no subject
So.
His response is a probably not too unexpected, eloquent:]
... Huh?
[W...what.]
no subject
[ YOU THINK YOU'RE CONFUSED. ]
no subject
There's a long pause as he contemplates that...and then he frowns slightly, head tilting thoughtfully.]
I don't think I understand what's happening here at all, but...
[But...!!]
Suddenly I feel like I'm expanding my horizons a little.
[Meeting someone from London from 1853...!! Whoa.]
