If it's your first time here, congratulations! You get the lovely, unique sensation of eating dirt as the Door knocks you facefirst into the ground. You'll probably be a little woozy at first, so take your time getting up- meet some folks, introduce yourself, don't be weird about it. Welcome to Hadriel! You're not the only person who just got to taste alien dirt firsthand, though- there are several people in the same predicament as you, so feel free to say hi! Probably shouldn't spend too much time talking though, because the lovely trees that you thought were just scenery are starting to creep ever closer the more you let your guard down.
All around you is a forest of spooky evil trees- it seems to be just a normal sort of forest at first, but the more you take your eyes off of them, the more they shift around you and close in. Or is that just your imagination? If you move too close to one, look out! They're rather determined to pick you up and stick you into the ground so you might take root- and if you resist, well, a severed bud can still serve as a seed, right?
If the trees tear your clothes though, don't worry, there's plenty of extras to be found lying around the arena if you don't mind them being a bit dirty. Lying on the ground and sometimes hanging off of these tree branches are some free shirts, yours for the taking! You know, if you'd be caught dead with one...
But hey, after you've met new friends and found a new aesthetic, feel free to go explore the rest of the city! Find a house, a new monster, a project to help with, or simply scavenge for supplies. Good luck, and enjoy your stay in Hadriel!► This log covers October 10th-14th.
► Feel free to make your own logs as well!
► All characters arrive with phones that have network communication and the newbie guide installed.
► Please put your character's name and open/closed in the subject line of your starters!
Re: 3. River
[Fenn decides it's just time to bite the bullet and ask the question.] Did the uh...murder trees get you? [He motions towards the blood. Probably the lack of typical clothing too.]
augh, sorry for not closing that code!
[Laura looks down at herself with a vaguely rueful expression on her face] No. This all happened before I came here.
No worries, I'm surprised I haven't done ti yet.
Which might sound more creepy and less comrade-ly in this situation...
no subject
It doesn't sound creepy at all.
no subject
Retrospectively offering a drink to a younger person probably not a good idea? Then again drinking age tends to be a very fluid thing. Fenn's definitely picking up on the change in tone. Some things are absolutely universal, and this is one bad decision Fenn's made enough times he can avoid it.]
I actually haven't had a drink in over a year, so that's probably one of those bad decisions. [Fennel learns slowly, but he learns.] If we're going to have a bad decision club, we should make our first official bad decision of the club carefully.
(cw: alcohol & drugs & sex references)
[Laura has been drinking alcohol since she was thirteen and doing cocaine since she was fifteen. and sleeping with older men since she was fourteen. and it's been Laura's experience that all men want to sleep with her]
In over a year? [she laughs] I'd never make it that long. [she leans in, too, close enough to kiss if he wants to] I'd say so. We should think through all of the options.
Re: (cw: alcohol & drugs & sex references)
Mundane decisions like what he's going to wear or eat. He doesn't have to dress to fit a part anymore. He doesn't have to stay in uniform. He could have a drink. Or coffee.
Or eat something non-nutritious. He doesn't have to look over his shoulder for Veris coming for him.
Fenn just grins widely. Laura's proximity doesn't bother him. He has no sense of personal space, and he's used to being crammed in with other people. Fenn extends his pointer finger in a motion meant to poke the end of Laura's nose, since it's so close.] Gather some other bad decision makers. Maybe we can even get a patron god to endorse our bad decision making.
[Fenn's just suddenly giddy an possibly nonsensical. There's a reason he makes bad decisions and no one asks him to make decisions often.]
cw: incest, rape, drugs, sex
those decisions involved becoming a cocaine addict and prostitution. she's never been in a situation where she's been free of the demon, BOB, and she's a bit at a loss as to how to proceed next with how to live her second-chance life
and, her nose is boop!ed. she wasn't expecting that] I'm sure this place has plenty of other bad-decision makers. Isn't there a god of Confusion? That's probably our best bet.
Re: cw: incest, rape, drugs, sex
and most or them have different motivations. Love, loyalty, anger,
pain, certainly come confusion.] You know what, I'm not sure. There's something that makes angry trees, but that's about all I know. Maybe we can go poll them.
[Truth is Fenn has no idea what he's going to do here anyway,
and this teenager has become something of a sounding board. He laughs] I probably sound like an idiot. I don't even know where I'm going to live yet and it doesn't look like you've had a chance to find new clothes and we're talking about starting clubs and choosing a patron god for our bad decisions.
[Who needs a drink. This place is a bad drug trip.]
cw: drugs
[if there's something Laura's good at, it's becoming what another person needs her to be. if he needs a sounding board, that's what she'll be] No, not at all. We could take care of both? First, find me some new clothes and then, take a tour of the apartments, see what we like?
[Laura needs a drink and a smoke and some cocaine, not necessarily in that order]
no subject
[More bad decisions? Fenn's very vague on how gods and religion are supposed to work.
He is hoping Laura's offering to do this because it would make her feel better to go do this and not because she is trying to make Fennel feel better. In either case, it's more useful than moping around the river.]
That sounds like a good plan. [Fenn takes mental stock of whether or not he has all of his things, absently patting his pants pocket with one of the three stashes of Icarus drugs he has before starting off.] Were the shirts the trees were dropping not something you'd normally wear?
no subject
[Laura knows your standard Judaeo-Christian god, the white haired and white bearded disapproving guy in the sky, but she knows nothing about other religions.
a little of Column A, a little of Column B. Laura genuinely does need new clothes and a place to stay and he seems like he could use something to take his mind off things]
Thank you. [Laura just has her phone and her ruined corset and panty set] No, not really. I never wore tshirts back home.

not in military settings where Fennel has lived. He's just going to guess by her age what the "high school senior" means.] Had you already started vocational training?
[Maybe he's trying to assess what kind of skills Laura does or doesn't have.]
