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!

[Despite knowing full and well he would and did scare the piss out of Momo, Sasuke's face doesn't change. He's neither reveling in it nor apologetic. At least, it doesn't look like he is on the outside.]

I am a ninja.

[How casually he says it--there can't be any lie to it. He hadn't even hesitated when he answered, and he hadn't smirked as if it were a joke. Either he's a ninja, or he honest to God believes he's a ninja.

Maybe the telling sign is, now that he's returned to Momo, the visible black eye isn't exactly completely black anymore. There's a design overlayed from iris edge to iris edge, a star it looks like, red and bright.]

There isn't anything here except two laptops. I think the village is trying to put us where it wants us. Let's go find yours.

[ For once, Momo's joviality takes a backseat to warm neutral. A strange shift in demeanor, a subtle gradient of emotions that ranges from contemplative to bemused to resigned.

"I am a ninja", Sasuke says, and Momo has nothing in his arsenal to contest or judge that statement. Especially not after he sees the telltale signs of something Not Quite Normal, the marking in that one eye and the steady conviction that seems to keep Sasuke upright.

Either Sasuke is completely fucking bonkers or he's telling the truth; it's never been easier for Momo to choose a side. ]

—Okay. [ He agrees, even if he's not quite sure what he's agreeing to?? A mess. ] But if this place is just trying to put us where we need to be, it shouldn't be that dangerous, right?

[ Because what would be the point in going through the trouble to assign housing if the village was just going to kill them once they got there? Any old cabin would suffice, in that case.

Momo laughs. ]

I've already troubled you a lot, Sasuke-san. You're really kind, you know? Thanks to you, I already feel like I can tackle anything— so don't worry about it.
