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!

Long story. [Let's not go into why Hera sucks unless you want to be stuck here for hours, Nat.] The good thing about completely losing it would be at least you get it out of the way early? [He's letting his hands move, spreading the water out a bit so it's not quite so high against her legs.]

[robitussin]

I am absolutely asking you about that later if I haven't, in fact, vanished by tomorrow.

[Either way, she's glancing down at the water at her legs as she continues to speak. She'll get to that in a moment, but first:]

That would make sense if the goal wasn't to never lose it. Anyways, if you have bizarre water stuff going on, could we maybe continue this conversation anywhere but the bottom of a well?

[hydrokinetics]

Yeah, okay. Give me your hand. It'll be faster that way. [He's even holding out an arm? Come on, Natalie. Trust him.]

[robitussin]

[She doesn't refuse outright, but she doesn't give him her hand quite yet, either. The situation is strange enough that she's nervous enough to ask a simple question:]

What for?

[hydrokinetics]

Getting out of the well? Hydropowered launching isn't going to do any good if I leave you down here.

[robitussin]

Why do we need to hold hands to do that?

[Save her x 2.]

[hydrokinetics]

[Just a glance. And he uses a hand to create a water column to lift her off her feet again, letting the water swirl but also making a point that it may not be that steady for her.]
