When: Day 144, morning
Where: HQ
What: Some more intros

[It seems like some stragglers from last night's arrivals might be showing up at the shrines this morning.

Meanwhile, down on the 3rd level, at the portal room (that empty room next to the baths), a god is putting up a counter similar to the one that indicates when the portal to the rainforest ruins opens (morning and evening on even numbered days). Shadows slide up the wall and form around the existing counter, expanding it so that there is room for the new information:

"6 Days"  ]

Who: YOU!
When: Day 143, afternoon
Where: Kitchen area, 3rd floor
What: Truth, Dare, or Chocolate


There is a table set up with large box amidst a veritable sea of chocolates! A large sign is leaned against the box, reading:

Truth, Dare, or Chocolate

Get to know your companions here! Find a partner or group to play with, and pick a card out of the box. It will either be a Truth or a Dare card. Answer the question or accomplish the task provided to you!

If you choose to avoid the card's task, you must eat a piece of chocolate.



[OOC notes: Each piece of chocolate contains a shot's worth of liquor. Those who successfully complete their cards for more than five rounds with another person will find that their apartment has been fitted with a high powered venting system that will last for a week.]

When: Day 143, morning
Where: Common area
What:

[the snow from the previous post night continues on throughout the morning, turning into a cold, icy rain sometime around dawn.

In the common area, Ko is standing around a number of different things - crayons, pencils, markers, paint, paper, what-have-you—but she's pouting. Oh, is she pouting]

Damn . . . this isn't good weather for exploring at all. We'll have to postpone. Boo~~

But, but, but—! I heard people complaining about my maps, so~ let's see if you guys can do any better! I'll reward anyone who makes me a map of this place - and I'll let you choose what the map is of! The building, the lands around this, somewhere else - the more detailed, the better, and the best maps will get something special~.

(IKKI APOLOGIZES PROFUSELY but RL stuff is keeping her from properly running a weekend-long exploradora post. But since I blocked off the weekend for it anyway, have this instead. COME GET SOME STUFF FROM KO AND MS PAINT ME SOME AWESOMENESS. Open all weekend, so backtag away ♥)

you know what makes this difficult now?

CRAZY FISH, HAUNTED FORESTS, AND THE OCCASIONAL MARSH SHARK.

so if people were expecting him for breakfast, they were sadly mistaken. this former nation-world is finally making his way out of the brush covered in muck, dirt, leaves, twigs, and bumps, bruises, and scratches to flop on the ground in front of HQ]

What:

[this morning, regardless of how long you slept or how much you slept, you don't feel rested at all, like there's something in the air unsettling you. Whatever it it, it's on the tip of your tongue, but you just can't seem to place what it is.

It probably doesn't help that the cold is just cold enough that getting out of bed isn't all that appealing]

Who: Anyone
When: Day 133, night
Where: The lake
What:

[It's still cold and snowing, and there is an AWFUL LOUD noise outside.

Even from far away, you can see it: there is an ENORMOUS MASS of green glow-in-the-dark, thick, massive vines that are actively crawling from the forest and pouring themselves into the lake. They are going deep. How deep is that lake?

The lake is also glowing itself as they pour in...]


[EVENT! Anyone can join if they like, anyone. People and gods. Some buildup and exploration / partying up / "what the hell" for the next hour is fine, the actual event starts at 8 EST (one hour).

What: storms and mingles

[The first indication comes in the rumbling growl of thunder which shakes the headquarters slightly in the darkest hours of the night. The winds pick up whipping the grasses of the plains in a rustling hush of noise. The air outside is cold and heavy, and it's split in a bright white-violet branching arch of lightning. Thunder rumbles again and the wind gusts just before heavy white flakes of snow as the lightning filled snowstorm rushes down from the mountains.]

there's also a pair of alchemists who've just finished setting all this up.*

When: Day 120, Morning and on
Where: HQ
What: Event start and mingle

[Throughout the day, residents may notice mysterious smoke signals going up from the dome of the HQ if they're outside: plumes of dense smoke wafting up in a thick trail into the sky. Those alarmed by a potential fire in the lizagon nests will find, however, that nothing seems to be burning when they clamber up onto the dome. Indeed, the smoke that was visible from the ground simply seems to vanish if one goes up there searching for the source (though it may smell like burnt dung and damp wood).

More interesting may be a slow influx throughout the day of rugged, roughed up, possibly smelly people to the HQ, either through the rainforest portal that's open this morning or possibly from out of the mountain-y forests or even out of the tall grasses just north, pulled in by the unmistakable sign of the God that has been watching over, teaching, springing survival-tests on, or just showing up sometimes to be a pest at them.]


((ooc: EVENT BEGIN! Anyone on this list is free to show up and play from today to next Wednesday, as guests of Thusia o7. You do not need to be currently active to play as a guest. And here is the ooc info post about the event. If your chara should be on the list or you want to change your drop route, give me a poke here.

From this point on until next Wednesday, visiting draftees may also feel free to make their own posts for arriving or doing stuff or whatever, just like normal play. Just be sure to tag your post with the "+draftee visits" tag.))

Who: SOME DUDE
When: Day 119, HIGH NOON
Where: OUTSIDE IN THE FIELDS
What: SOME VARIANT OF THIS

[HELLO, FELLOW THUSIANS.

THIS AFTERNOON, THERE IS A FLAG BEING HOISTED IN SOME LARGE TREE.

YOU CAN PROBABLY SEE IT FROM THE WINDOWS.

IT'S BLACK AND WHITE AND MAY HAVE BEEN MADE FROM BED SHEETS.

POSSIBLY, SOME HOUSEWIFEY PERSON MIGHT BE MILDLY OFFENDED BY THIS BUT WHATEVER.

THERE IS ALSO A MADMAN LAUGHING FROM ONE OF THOSE CLOSED-OFF BALCONIES ON HQ.

... THE SWEAT RUNNING DOWN HIS FACE MIGHT EXPLAIN HOW THE FUCK HE GOT UP THERE (HINT: IT WAS SUPER NOT EASY AND THUS MORE EPIC)]
cloakanddaikon: (Relaxed environment)
[personal profile] cloakanddaikon
Who: Current inhabitants of HQ
When: Day 119, morning
Where: 4th floor courtyard
What: Breakfast and reestablished communications

[The smell of baking and breakfast sausages fills the air this morning. Follow it, and you'll find a large picnic blanket spread out between the 4th floor bulletin board and the (now once again empty, and finally clean) fountain.

The last of the rainforest's larder is spread out: small bowls of varied nuts, warm buns beside blood mushroom jam, fried potatoes, monkey sausage and crispy monkey wings. A salad of fresh green and yellow leaves, dotted with flower petals, adds colour, as does a plate of preserved local vegetables. In the centre, steaming gently, is a pot of . . . is that miso soup?

A sign on the bulletin board states, simply enough, Community Meet and Greet.]


Good morning.

I am quite sure I am not alone in realizing how many new faces there are in these halls, and how many more that were once here are now absent. Before we embark on whatever explorations we make have in this new location, it seems a good time to once again take a few moments to introduce ourselves.

If you could, please give your name, the length of time you have been here, and, as a way to open up conversation, feel free to share a point of interest about yourself, any plans you may have for the next few days, or questions about the environment we have navigated to.

When: Day 118, BRIGHT AND FUCKING EARLY
Where: HQ. All of it.
What:


[ Wow, good morning. Today, if you are up yet, you may notices a slight tremor, and your floor tilting juuuuuust a bit thattaway. If you weren't up yet, you may be soon, as a red magic seal plants itself in your wall and a booming voice echoes out of it. Not so loud as to be painful. But loud. Real loud. ]

HEAR ME, OH CITIZENS OF THUSIA, OH NOBLE DEAD. ISKANDER, KING OF CONQUERORS CLAIMS NOW COMMAND OF THIS FORTRESS.  I WILL BRING IT TO  A PLACE OF SECURITY AND SET IT DOWN WHERE WE MAY MAKE OUR HOME. 

S
TAY THERE, IF YOU LIKE, AND MAY YOU KNOW HAPPINESS. BUT TO THOSE WHO WILL VENTURE: I WILL LEAD YOU. FOLLOW ME, AND WE WILL FIND VICTORY.  FOLLOW ME AND WE WILL FIND PROSPERITY IN THIS WORLD. WE WILL FIND TREASURES, AND WE MAY YET ACCOMPLISH GREATER AND MORE SPLENDID THINGS THAN YOU HAVE IMAGINED.

W
E WILL EXPLORE AND WE WILL BUILD AND WE WILL CONQUER.  THERE WILL BE NO SKY WE CAN NOT FLY THROUGH. THERE WILL BE NO HORIZON TOO DISTANT TO SEEK. 


DR
EAM WITH ME, OH DREAMLESS DEAD, AND I TELL YOU THIS: OUR DREAM WILL BE ETERNAL IN ITS GLORY.

[ and once more, HQ tilts ever-so-slightly that other way.  Gosh those hills are looking pretty close. ]

[Just go about your day as usual Thusia, ignore the idiot who just fell from the ceiling rafters with a completely manly yelp]

Ow! God damn it-

[Also ignore the bucket of soapy water that falls off after him and lands on his head. Yyyyep this was success.]

Where: 4th floor common area, outside (and above) Pi-Lambda
What: Laundry

[Up on the fourth floor, in the northwest corner, the tightrope tied as a hypotenuse between the corner balcony railings seems to have made a reappearance. It's been joined by another, and another, each rope secured at an equal interval from the last.

There's no one balancing on them today. Instead, a short figure in a long black coat (and notably bare hands, one marked on the back with some kind of red symbol) balances precariously on a the edge of a chair, hanging fresh-washed sheets from the lines.]

Dragons in the open spaces, self-immolating insects covering the balconies, and absolutely no consideration for the basic requirements of civilized living. This entire situation is deplorable.

When: Day 111, Late Afternoon
Where: Anywhere.
What: Mingle!

[ It's quiet, possibly too quiet. Inside the headquarters, the lights are powered down, but the building is still running. If you're leaving soon, you might want to grab things that you might need from the forest now. It's just another day in the jungle with your red lizagon friends. ]

When: 108 evening
Where: Motha fucking shrine room
What: [ Only just a bit after the meeting (in fact some of you may still be finishing up discussions) there is a thunderous announcement from a gargantuan new arrival.  He stands next to a huge black horse and two nerds who look like they've been crying. ]


GODS OF THIS LAND!

I, ISKANDAR, KING OF CONQUERORS, ACCEPT YOUR HOSPITALITY! Who amongst you shall sit and drink with me?
[personal profile] supraliminally
Who: errybody
When: Sunset, day 108
Where: Building D, 4th floor
What: Hashing shit out

 [Maybe you heard about it through the grapevine today, or maybe you saw one of the many fliers lying around, reading:

Open Forum
This evening at Sunset
Auditorium on the 4th floor

Topics of discussion will include:
1. Should we move
2. If so, when and where
3. The lizagons, friend and foe
(in particular, under what terms
do we intend to live together, if
we are going to do so)
4. General future goals

Air your concerns and grievances here
Gods are invited, but NO WHINING ALLOWED
 

Maybe, if you aren't normally the sort to come to meetings, your apartment has been mysteriously broken into and an item taken, with only a ransom note left behind: "If you want to see it again, come to the auditorium on the fourth floor at sunset."

Either way, when you arrive, there will be a pile of stolen goods on the stage, quite unharmed. There will also be a table with various foodstuffs and drinks. The food is quite tasty, and so is the tea. The booze isn't bad either. It must have come from someone with a pretty impressive stash.

On a completely unrelated note, there is one (1) Yakumo Yukari sitting in the front row. She is the picture of innocence, and there is absolutely no way she stole your shit. ]

Who: Chrono and Tempest and anyone
When: Day 104, late morning
Where: Handwavily sort of everywhere
What:

[So today there's a tired, battered, one-armed tinydemon and a tired, battered, thankfully fully-limbed half-elf flagging people down to disseminate a somewhat unfortunate warning. If they need to sit or lean on something to make it through the entire conversation, you should just politely ignore that.]

I think there's some bad news that needs to be passed along... somewhat urgently.
