Event Thirteen.





To love a human face was to discover
The cracks of paint and varnish on the brow;
Soon to distrust all impulses of flesh
That strews its sawdust on the chamber floor,
While at the window peer two crones
Who once were Juliet and Jessica.





t's a regular morning here in the Town. The sun isn't shining at all, snow is falling like crazy, and...there may be the sounds of shouts coming from the well, thoroughly muffled.

Okay, so it's not a regular morning at all, but you'd better go help those people! The newcomers are here again. Of course, once you get to the well, you'll notice that there's actually no real help you can offer -- it's totally frozen over.

As for the newcomers, well... hopefully being suddenly dumped into freezing cold water in the middle of November in a dark, damp well is your idea of a good time, because that's your life now!

And that's not even taking into account the mirrors in everyone's homes that are about to wake up and start chattering...




Welcome to Awash's thirteenth event log, everyone! Further information on this event can be found here at the OOC post. Please keep in mind that while this is a general event log, it is also an intro log; be sure to pay plenty of attention to our newcomers!

If there are any questions, please ask them here. Thank you!

[It's the most plausible thing he can come up with, so he nods in agreement. Brandishing his daggers, he glances over at the sphinx before looking back at Yu.]

Why don't you answer, and I'll guard you?

[He knows Yu said he can fight, but he'd still feel better if he were the one about to launch the attack, if necessary. As long as he moves fast, he's sure he could give Yu time to run.]

Quest: Success

[Yu could take care of himself, but he instead nods and figures they might as well go that way. Akira does look like he is quicker than him; his movements keep reminding you of his partner.

Less prone to falling down than Yosuke, however.]


Right. Let's do it.

[He steps forward towards the creature.]

Have you reached a decision?
What answer did you envision?


We have.

[He coughs. If Yu's going to answer he's going to do it right.]

We wanted to let you know
That the answer you seek is shadow.

[It's not...quite a rhyme but Yu attempted.

The creature paces back and forth in quiet contemplation before finally answering;]


The answer sought was shadow
It is also the soul's window
To the both of you,
Relish your victory as I now say adieu.


[Before it takes off, it does add something specifically for Yu;]

Lion cub, work on your rhyme
The one you gave me was a crime.


[It gives him a grin full of sharp teeth before finally leaving with the teenager standing there watching it go.]

...we couldn't pet it.

[that is clearly more of a crime than his rhymes.]
theshowsover: (if it feels good tastes good)

yaaaay!

[personal profile] theshowsover 2018-11-28 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Akira can't help but cringe a little at that rhyme. But hey, Yu attempted more than he would have!

He watches the sphinx go, glad that they answered the question correctly and there wasn't a fight, but sad for the same reason. Aw... and it looked soft, too...]


...Oh well.

[He sounds disappointed.]

At least we finished the quest.
izanyagi: (What is this)

I will go post

[personal profile] izanyagi 2018-11-28 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah.

[A beat.]

So how do we get home?

[Yu is still new to the woods. Please give him time.]

[...

Akira turns around.

He peers into the trees.]


I... think it's that way.

[Oh boy.]
izanyagi: Doujin, scanned by <user name=pixle> | IT'S FROM PORN but it's a nice thinking icon (Hmmmm whodunnit...)

[personal profile] izanyagi 2018-11-30 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh boy.]

Hmmm.

[Maybe they can trace back their steps. What he wouldn't give for Rise or Teddie's sense of smell.]

Maybe we could climb a tree and look around?
theshowsover: (i see whats mine i take it)

[personal profile] theshowsover 2018-12-03 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
[Yeah, if Futaba or even Morgana were here, maybe this would be easier...]

It can't hurt.

[He looks up the nearest tree, to see if it's tall, before looking back at Yu.]

After you?
izanyagi: <user name=pixle> (Sweating)

[personal profile] izanyagi 2018-12-04 07:15 am (UTC)(link)
Sure.

[He looks at a large, nearby tree, mostly trunk and less branches before he takes a running start and manages to move upward enough to grab one of the branches. Pulling himself up is the easy part, but his motions could use a little finesse. He looks back at Akira.]

Do you need a hand up? I think the branch should be able to handle the both of us.
theshowsover: (dress me up and watch me die)

[personal profile] theshowsover 2018-12-06 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
I got it.

[He also runs, using the bark to help himself... although he doesn't get quite the height that Yu does. He ends up hanging onto the branch, feet on the trunk.]

...Alright, maybe.

[He almost had it by himself!]
yuzanagi: (Your Hand please)

I guess we could end it here?

[personal profile] yuzanagi 2018-12-12 07:04 am (UTC)(link)
Okay.

[Yu extends his hand so that the other can climb up, being careful not to slip off himself.]

I can push you upward so you can get a better view.
theshowsover: (ice has melted back to life)

sure

[personal profile] theshowsover 2018-12-16 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks.

[So they make it up higher. Akira looks out over the top of the forest. Not much to see behind them, but there is the town in the distance.]

Cool view.

[Not that much to see, but at least they can get back to town now.]
