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!

I'm not sure... It's simple not to think too hard about it when I'm surrounded by people. I'm certain if I was alone, this would be much more difficult.

[ or maybe she's just tired. and used to weird things... though is weird really weird when she's used to it?

who flippin' knows. ]

How long have you been here?

[retrobeats]

[ he lets out a sigh, and nods a little. ]

Yeah, we're super lucky in that most of the people we're stuck here with seem like they're all pretty great for the most part. [ it'd kinda taken him by surprise, honestly. but in a good way. ] I mean, this whole situation still sucks but... the company makes it suck less.

Anyway, I think I've been here a couple months now. There's people who've been here longer, though.

[ yeah, they could be stuck with mass murderers or something?? that would suck. aigis honestly can't disagree with his statement, given every single person she's met has been a mix of both friendly and helpful. ]

A couple of months is a while... And even longer than that...

[ yeah, just tell it to michael straight up aigis.

maybe her slight sadness at hearing that that's how long people get stuck here is showing a little too clearly, though. she shakes her head--as if willing that negativity away--before continuing. ]

Um... No, I mean-- you're right. Everyone I've met has been so helpful... Including you. [ WHO IS CURRENTLY NAMELESS, but in all this overwhelming mess she hasn't thought to ask yet. ] Thank you.

[ but she's still so Tired, send help. ]

[retrobeats]

[ he shrugs. ]

I'm just paying it forward. I got a lot of help back when I crawled out the well too, y'know?

[ the way she shook her head before abruptly agreeing with him like that, though... maybe she's not really handling it as well as she seems, which, honestly?? a Mood. ]

Hey, d'you know which house is yours yet? At least then you'll have some place to crash and figure all this out.
