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!

Oh dear... If only my costume still had a cape you could borrow...

[Well, he's been in stranger situations helping civilians in his many years of service, even if this isn't a particularly helpful one when he already has no idea what's going on. Time to keep that big smile on his face and stay positive (?).]

Let's... keep looking! And hide behind me if you need to!

[Fortunately he wandered right into a main street in the district, so a clothes shop isn't far. He leads her in, one hand clamped exaggeratedly over his eyes.]

I'll pay for anything you need after, young miss, so please choose anything you like! [... If it's possible to like clothes as old fashioned as these, anyway? Sorry, Kisa.]

[ She'll... deal. It's better than the maid outfits and bridal gowns her cousin sells.

And honestly, it's less "what she likes" and "what's within reach that will fit", so she's making a rapid beeline towards an oversized peasant blouse that covers everything important.

Too bad there's no one there to pay, but at least she won't be naked! ]

[While she picks out her blouse, All Might looks around to try to explain the situation to a member of staff before any confusion arises, but... There's no one here? And apparently nowhere to leave money, either.

He's puzzled, and the last thing he wants to do is to be accused of stealing, but maybe this place really is deserted just like everywhere else.]


Young miss! Did you find something?
stripedown: (Actual tiger duckling)

[personal profile] stripedown 2018-09-13 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
[ She did! Here she comes, traipsing towards him in said oversized blouse, which is kind of like a rather shapeless dress on her. Still, it's good enough, and she seems a lot more satisfied than-- well. Being naked. ]

[personal profile] smaaaaaash 2018-09-15 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
[Is it safe to look... It's hard to judge when he's trying not to and also when she won't (can't?) talk, but the sound of approaching footsteps is enough to alert him to her presence.]

Ah! There you are. If you transform again, worry not! I'll make sure you don't lose your shirt.

[He smiles brightly, and adds--] We were in such a hurry I forgot to introduce myself. I am All Might, and I am here to help you!
stripedown: (Headpat Victim)

[personal profile] stripedown 2018-09-16 05:12 am (UTC)(link)
[ All... Might?

That's a very weird name. Kisa's squinting at him as though she's trying to piece together whether it's his real name or not. ]
smaaaaaash: (021)

[personal profile] smaaaaaash 2018-09-16 12:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[... Not quite the reaction he was expecting, but he can handle a tough crowd. He clears his throat and tries again, this time with a cool hero pose, hands on his hips.]

I am All Might, a pro hero and the Symbol of Peace! If any villains lurk here, they will be brought to justice!
stripedown: (Le gasp)

[personal profile] stripedown 2018-09-16 10:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ... Oh.

Oh??

Well, now she looks a little more properly awed. If still a bit confused, but! A hero! She's never met an actual hero before!

Should she bow? She's going to bow. Thank you for saving her, then! ]
smaaaaaash: (001)

[personal profile] smaaaaaash 2018-09-16 11:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[He chuckles even as she bows. Such a polite girl...!]

But that's enough about me. What's your name, young miss? [He's been considerate of the fact she doesn't want to (or can't) talk so far, but at least a name would be helpful. He even lowers his voice a notch, as if speaking more gently might encourage her.]
stripedown: (Please stop making eye contact)

[personal profile] stripedown 2018-09-18 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
[ ... Ah. It doesn't encourage her, sadly, but that's because she can't really answer what he's asking of her. Not at any volume, anyway, though she does slowly open her mouth.

Aaaaand mouth her name.

Sorry, All Might. ]

What was that? ["Risa"? It's hard to lipread, so he crouches down and offers his ear, so she can whisper it if she really wants to. Though if that doesn't work, maybe he can find something she can write with...]
stripedown: (Not sure how to process)

[personal profile] stripedown 2018-09-21 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
[ ... Well, then. She's just going to carefully glance around, find the counter (and it's definitely dusty enough) and rise up on her toes just enough to draw the characters of her name into the dust.

Will... that help? ]
smaaaaaash: (006)

[personal profile] smaaaaaash 2018-09-22 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[He straightens up to his full height, watching her draw her name.]

Ah! Kisa! It's a pleasure to meet you! [Even if he is getting more and more concerned for her wellbeing the more he learns about her and the town both. Not to mention his own time limit on this form, which he knows is slowly creeping up on him.]

Perhaps I should have asked this sooner, but do you know sign language?

[He doesn't himself, but if he could find someone who did, that might make things a lot easier for her.]
stripedown: (Mastering unfair looks at 12)

[personal profile] stripedown 2018-09-23 02:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She frowns now, slightly, and shakes her head. Yeah, normally talking has never really been a problem.

Which she can't say, now can she? ]
smaaaaaash: (052)

[personal profile] smaaaaaash 2018-09-23 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, don't worry, don't worry! I was just wondering.

[He wonders if her parents never thought to help her learn it, or perhaps her muteness is a recent thing... Well, either way, speculation won't get him anywhere. Perhaps they can figure out an easier way for her to communicate later. For now...]

Now that your Quirk has settled down, let's explore more of the town. If you get tired or hungry, tell me, and we'll find somewhere to stop and rest!
