Event Nine.

[awashmods]

Thus, on Life’s gloomy sea, Heareth the marinere Voices sweet, from far and near, Ever singing in his ear, “Here is rest and peace for thee!”

t's a dark night, and the sounds of feet in the darkness are further dampened and hidden by even more magic, as they are lured away by the soft sounds of dreams that are too good to be true, leaving the Town much, much emptier than when it began. On one side, an island, and a ticking clock to a gruesome death. On the other, the slow realization that those bonds everyone has been forging might mean much, much more than they first thought. Welcome to Awash's ninth 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.

[Okuni is still concerned, but she ends up giving him a brisk nod and starts leading the way back. The knowledge that Shouto is having difficulties using his power doesn’t sit well with her at all – it might be a side effect of this island or the sirens themselves, but ultimately it means she has to keep a closer eye on him.

Once they're close enough to the craft Okuni arrived on, she rifles through a few things on the prow of the ship, then holds out a travel-sized bottle of water to Shouto.]

Here. We have plenty of extra water, so just take this one for yourself.

[Okuni is not the only one who's unhappy about the present circumstances. Shouto glares down at his left hand like he's willing it to catch fire.

Though he does get distracted by the bottle of water, taking it and immediately drinking half of it. It's been way too long without fresh water.]

Thanks.

[osuni]

[Okuni still has no idea that Shouto can use fire, so all she sees is Shouto glaring at his hand like it’s done him WRONG. She's observant enough to put two and two together, so it must have something to do with his quirk.]

We have food too. [but...] Do you get sick at sea?

[glaciers]

[Okuni thinks he's only an icyboy...

And honestly Shouto has no idea? He's never really been on a boat. Even the one time they were supposed to be using the USJ, Shouto ended up in the mountains.]

I haven't been at sea like this before.

[osuni]

[SHE DID BEFORE WE GOT FURTHER IN OUR OTHER THREADS… immediately retcons my own brackets]

Ah. [HMMM] Then, you should eat after we get back. It would be embarrassing if you ended up feeling worse.

[she meant "bad" but embarrassing also works]

[glaciers]

[GOOD THING BRACKETS ARE EASILY RETCONNED]

That's fair.

[They'll get out of here soon and he can eat something.

Embarrassingly his stomach growls.]

[osuni]

[Despite the overall high amounts of stress from this entire situation, Okuni bursts into giggles at the sound. The laughter is truly inappropriate, but Okuni can’t help it... Maybe she’s also just glad Shouto is OKAY enough to make embarrassing stomach sounds.]

You can have a rice ball when we get back, unless you think Izu-chan will cook something for you.

[glaciers]

I'll take a rice ball. I think Izuku wants to rest after all of this.

[Shouto definitely just wants to collapse into bed.]

[osuni]

[truly, a Mood.]

Alright! We're just about ready to go, so sit tight. It would be a pain to haul you out of the water if you accidentally fell in.
