Event Ten.

[awashmods]

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!

[ You'll have to fight Sierra for custody rights, buddy.

For now, she carefully shakes her head. Yeah, no, not yet. Too busy hiding. ]

[youwillbeunequaled]

[(Rawr- bring it. Literal fights, he'll totally win.)]


[Mm. He's worried that she hasn't found it yet, but that's all right.
There might be some reason why she's not gone there yet, too. Considering how shyly she is acting...]

Do you want to try and find it now? That is, if you want to wait a little longer before meeting your roommates, that is fine. We could do other things before finding your house.

So, do you want to try and find it now? [Asking the question at the end again to simplify it - he doesn't want to misunderstand her answer.]

[stripedown]

[ This time, she shakes her head. She hasn't seen everything in the town yet, and that means she might still be able to find her family. Any one of them, considering that there are at least a few hundred if she considers the whole Sohma family. ]

[youwillbeunequaled]

Very well.

If you like reading, would you like to see the library?

[It's the first place that springs to mind, of course. He can't help but look a little eager, as he likes the library himself.]

[stripedown]

[ Kisa doesn't look quite as eager, but a library... it's a nice, quiet place full of books. Maybe she'll feel a little less vulnerable there.

A nod. The library is a good start! ]

[youwillbeunequaled]

[Somehow, it's reassuring to have a goal, isn't it. No matter how simple. With purpose he gets to his feet and brushes off his yukata.]

Let us be on our way, then! Please, come with me. [He holds out a hand, both inviting her to his side, and for her to hold if she wishes.]

[stripedown]

[ Well.

If Tonbokiri doesn't mind waiting about two minutes, she will eventually slip her hand into his. Cautiously. ]

[youwillbeunequaled]

[He doesn't mind at all.
He is quietly happy when she at last does take his hand. He holds it gently, hoping that will reassure her.

As they walk he does his best to simply explain Chroma - how the food that doesn't have colour tastes like ash, and how people have been trying to coordinate the coloured foods so they can all eat well. How it is dangerous to go into the forest, but the Defence Force is there to help keep them all safe.

When they arrive at the library he opens the door for her.]

Here we are. For some reason, all the books are fairy tales and folk tales, but you can enjoy reading as much as you want.
Or, if you like, I could read to you... [Just, you know, the option is there...]
But please, take your time to have a look around. One thing- many people have taken the time to organize it well, so I must ask that you put things back where you find them. All right?
