Event Ten.





Little Willie, mean as hell,
Pushed his sister in a well.
Mother said, while drawing water,
"My, it's hard to raise a daughter."





t's pretty dark and miserable down in the well. The cavernous area feels much larger than a well should be, bodies milling about in the darkness and knee deep, frigid water. So you're here -- and you're not alone, and the only way out appears to be the thin circle of sunlight from above, the opening of the well.

(And elsewhere, in the Town, everyone's waking up to gifts of various usefulness, but hopefully they remember to check the well today even so!)

What now?




Welcome to Awash's tenth event log, and the intro log for this month, everyone! All new characters have found themselves waking in the well in the middle of the Town. Hopefully they can get a hand out! For more information, please go here!

Meanwhile, the current characters have some new gifts.

If there are any questions, please ask them here, and have fun! Thank you!

( He's drawn in by the sound of music! It's not something he hears particularly often in Chroma so of course he's curious. Even if the melody is sad from afar and even sadder when he gets close enough to hear the words.

Boo.
)

D'ya know anything better? ( Than you know... a bunch of sad tunes!! ) It's a real nice day and you're really bringing it down.

[ Geez, tough crowd. ]

Oh, I suppose I do… It is only that I am quite overcome with sadness over the plight of this realm.

( He's an honest critic. )

And you're not the only one, I bet, but c'mon. Ya got a real talent right there! You could be using it to lift spirits instead of bringing 'em down.
noholdsbard: (Time to lute and plunder)

[personal profile] noholdsbard 2018-09-10 04:37 pm (UTC)(link)
I thank you very much for the compliment. [ Hell, he can’t help a little smile at that, even. ]

But I like to take inspiration from our surroundings, and as you can see, it is so very bleak.

That's only 'cause ya don't know what you're looking at!

( Coming over, he makes a point to point out some of the houses nearby and any little thing with color, )

Yeah, it looks real depressing with out all of the color but check it out. Ya see the splashes of color here and there? Everyone's been working real hard to bring it back. It might not look like much but a lot of effort went into what ya see.

[ His eyes fly wide open at that, because holy shit, Mutsu just blew his mind. ]

Do you mean to tell me that…the color is not draining away? [ Pessimist that he is, he’d assumed that the few colors he’d seen here and there were well on their way to turning gray. ]

That…there is hope for this town?
tosa: neutral (Default)

[personal profile] tosa 2018-09-10 05:28 pm (UTC)(link)
It's the opposite!

( Color is coming back! He's seen it with his own eyes and maybe Tristan will see it if he'll just open his more... )

There's a whole lotta hope here.
noholdsbard: (You're a dirty lyre)

[personal profile] noholdsbard 2018-09-10 05:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh…this is… [ Is he staggering a little? Give him a moment. ] This is truly a miracle…!

[personal profile] tosa 2018-09-11 03:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey, hey... You aren't gonna go falling over on me, are ya?

( Just in case he's ready to catch this mopey knight? )

C'mon, did ya really think out of all the people here, everyone'd just give up and lie down or something? That's not how people work.

( You silly man. )
noholdsbard: (Time to lute and plunder)

[personal profile] noholdsbard 2018-09-11 05:27 pm (UTC)(link)
No, but I… [ He’ll hold on to the railings; it’s fine… ]

Oh, this is very good news indeed. I’d been at a loss as to how to help everyone.

[ Hell, he’s not even sure how anyone’s managed to bring back color in the first place. That kind of magic is well beyond him. ]

[personal profile] tosa 2018-09-14 04:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Get it together.

( He says it... nicely.... really! He'll even pat Tristan on the back! There, there, pull it together, sad knight. )

I just told ya how!

( PUffing his cheeks, he makes a face. Come on, dude! Play some happier music. )

... Unless ya don't know any good songs at all.
noholdsbard: (Life would B flat without knights)

[personal profile] noholdsbard 2018-09-14 05:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Aww, he appreciates it, Mutsu. Hell, he appreciates it even more that you’re not practically smacking him to the ground with the force of Gawain’s gorilla hands. ]

Then I must thank you properly, of course. [ He even manages a small smile at that. ]

I do know a few cheerful tunes. I hadn’t thought of playing them within such scenery, though…

( A smile! Why does he feel like it's a rare thing? )

A real artist doesn't need a fancy stage! ( Come on! ) If ya let yourself stay small 'cause of your place, you'll never get to grow out.
noholdsbard: (Life would B flat without knights)

[personal profile] noholdsbard 2018-09-15 04:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha, I suppose that’s true. [ Well, not that he had Ambitions about being a great artist or anything, but hey. ]

Are you a musician yourself, then? You seem quite knowledgeable in these matters.
tosa: positive (pic#12225403)

[personal profile] tosa 2018-09-15 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Nah, nothing fancy like that. I'm just an old fashioned sword!

( Heh heh. Maybe he'd like to learn to play something more than just plucking a few strings on the shamisen but could you imagine that? A sword playing an instrument! )
noholdsbard: (Life would B flat without knights)

[personal profile] noholdsbard 2018-09-15 05:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Teach him your attendant BGM Mutsu ]

I see. [ There’s a lot loaded in that one sentence that he doesn’t even know where to start— ]

A…Saber, do you mean?
tosa: positive (pic#12565565)

[personal profile] tosa 2018-09-15 05:10 pm (UTC)(link)
( Are you really going to play this on your bow harp thing...

But what's this? A saber? A western sword?
)

An uchigatana, actually.

( Yes. )
noholdsbard: (Life would B flat without knights)

[personal profile] noholdsbard 2018-09-15 05:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Yes?? Just make puppy eyes at him and he’d abuse his perfectly elegant instrument to play it for him????? ]

Oh, I’m not too familiar with that class. [ If that’s even a class—he can sense a disconnect here, as well as a clear lack of Servant readings in Mutsunokami, but that really just tells him nothing. ]
tosa: positive (pic#12225466)

[personal profile] tosa 2018-09-15 05:18 pm (UTC)(link)
( There's definitely a disconnect here and Mutsu can also sense it as well. )

It's Japanese? ( Is that making it any more clear? ) Ya got a bunch of different types of swords... ya got your tantou and your wakizashi, both are pretty short. Then ya got tachi and oodachi they're longer. And right in the middle ya got uchigatana like me?

( Hmmmm.... )

Ya following?
noholdsbard: (Bard of hearing puns)

[personal profile] noholdsbard 2018-09-15 05:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[ And then something clicks. Sort of. ]

Then you are a manifestation of such a…sword? From the Orient? [ Not a class? But that would basically make him a Noble Phantasm?? And a fucking walking talking one???

Magic here is so weird. ]

tosa: positive (pic#12267886)

[personal profile] tosa 2018-09-15 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Ya got it! ( Finger guns! Pow, pow. ) Mutsunokami Yoshiyuki! Right, right the sword of Sakamoto Ryouma.

Probably means nothing to a western guy like you, huh? Well, I'm pretty famous where I'm from. I got a nice reputation down in Tosa.
noholdsbard: (Life would B flat without knights)

[personal profile] noholdsbard 2018-09-15 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[ You know what, his own origin story isn’t any weirder. He’ll roll with this. ]

A pleasure, then. I am Archer, and indeed, I hail from the West. It is my misfortune to have never heard of such a person.

[ But you’re gonna tell him all about him aren’t you— ]
tosa: positive (pic#12225403)

[personal profile] tosa 2018-09-15 05:47 pm (UTC)(link)
He's one of the greatest guys from Japan! Second only to that Nobunaga guy!

( Don't tell him Nobunaga is a small girl, Tristan. He'll fight you. But what's this? )

Archer? That's some name. ... Huhuhu, it's kinda cool!
noholdsbard: tfw you accidentally get inducted into a cult (We should guitar act together)

[personal profile] noholdsbard 2018-09-15 05:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Lord Nobunaga is indeed a warrior without peer. Perhaps more worthy of the class of Archer than I. Is your master truly that strong?

[ YES, HE’S…IMPRESSED. You don’t fuck with Nobu okay. ]
tosa: positive (pic#12565569)

1/2

[personal profile] tosa 2018-09-15 06:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Strong's a word...( This feels like a trick question. Is Ryouma strong? Of course! He was a master swordsman, after all! ) But he was more like a visionary. He saw things like no one else could see and went on to change Japan as much as Nobunaga did. Yeah, he was a master swordsman but no one remembers him 'cause of his fights! In fact, he didn't even like fighting! It was all about using his words to bring people up and together.

( Uuuu, he's practically sparkling )
