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!

Now, now, young Todoroki. Wishful thinking doesn't have to be a bad thing! Even if restoring the town isn't the answer, so long as we don't give up on finding a way out, there will always be other opportunities.

[glaciers]

[He lets out a soft little sigh.]

I'd like it if you were right. So far we don't know a lot about this place, and all the books are fairy tales and myths.

[smaaaaaash]

I-is that so... Are they good fairy tails, at least?

[Because, you know. Priorities.]

[glaciers]

I didn't know a lot of them.

Most of them end in somebody dying or getting horribly mutilated.

reasons I shouldn't late night tag: that typo in the last tag

[smaaaaaash]

[He rubs his chin thoughtfully.] It's true that a lot of the old stories were much darker than people think... But audiences these days like happy endings! Their wishes should be respected!

[He's wracking his brain trying to think of what it might mean, but he's got nothing.]

Hmmm... Is there anything else that you think I should know, young Todoroki?

do fairies have tails

[glaciers]

I don't think the town really cares about what we want.

Don't eat any food that doesn't have color yet. It'll taste like ash.

idk i think there's a manga about it

[smaaaaaash]

A-ash...?! [He coughs a little in surprise, then quickly covers his mouth with a hand. Whoops, maybe he should find a way to wrap this conversation up soon before he draws any more suspicion to himself.]

How much food has colour around here? Is there enough to feed everyone?

[glaciers]

[The only thing that's weird about this conversation is that All Might is Muscle Might.]

There's a decent amount. We've got a community garden and I think somebody made it grow faster than normal. So we have strawberries and apples and stuff.

... I think some fish have color too, but I haven't really been checking. Blue lobsters also have their color back.

[smaaaaaash]

Amazing! It's wonderful what people can do when they work together, even in the most difficult circumstances!

[Maybe this is good hero training in its own way, taking students from the comfort of the school and their being forced to survive and help one another in a town like this. It's far from ideal, but looking at the positives has to help, right?]

[glaciers]

Nobody wants to starve.

... Or eat ash.

[Is this really hero training when Shouto is really planning on working in cities? At what point is he going to need to know how farms work at home?]
