Good morning, new Hadrielites. How are you feeling? A little weird about waking up on a strange world under two suns? Yeah, we figured. You're not the only ones - just ask all the folks who woke up with you, or the folks who have been here for months. Or you could ask the monsters.
Yup, arriving with the newcomers are a number of nurses, - but not the nice ones that will patch up your wounds and bring you sweet painkillers. No, these are hunchbacked and infested or disturbingly sexy, and none of them are helpful at all. They are attracted to light and noise, and they conveniently carry melee weapons with them. All the better to beat you with! While you can kill them, they can take a lot of damage, so think twice before running in with fists swinging.
Don't worry, the nurses aren't the only thing that came in with you. Life in Hadriel can be pretty hectic, so why don't you make sure you have something to protect that phone of yours? Scattered around the arena, you can find a number of different and artistic phone cases. So grab one that appeals to you and show off your sense of style!
Once you've escaped the nurses and picked up some phone protection, you're ready for the wider world of Hadriel. 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 February 10th-16th.
► 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!
orchard, def
After his encounter with Magnus earlier, part of him fears he'll find a much younger Merle too, and Taako will be alone with the memory of his first two months in the city. With Julia, with forgetting who he was, with-- everything.
But he's not. Hadriel has thrown Taako this one consolation, when he sees Merle meditating, without arm or eye. Maybe it's cruel to wish that trauma on him, but Taako doesn't give a shit. He needs this, okay.
He steps over carefully, sitting cross legged next to him.]
So what, now I gotta pull your ass out of a tree part two? You know where the house is. Or you better, I'm not playing welcome wagon part 2.
no subject
I wanted to see some trees! I see the house all the time 'cause I live there, and I wanted a tree! I'm-- sue me. I'm hangin' out. [ He doesn't even sound offended, he's just laughing. Taako is here. Merle didn't have many worries about it, honestly. He didn't even consider hiw long he might've ducked out just for his few hours at home. He rolled in on some Hadriel-experience-based faith. ]
Did any of you guys water my plants?
no subject
What, rest of your plants aren't enough? Gotta stop to see your exotic tree wife or somethin' before goin' home to the family?
[He rolls his eyes, but it passes.]
And yeah I watered your dumb plants. It's been like four days. Not enough time for it to, like, matter.
no subject
[ GOSH, HONESTLY TAAKO. ]
But hey, only four days! That's a new record, right? Best at coming back!
no subject
[We. That time he didn't have to worry about it. Taako does want to know what he saw, what happened, but he doesn't push immediately. He just wants to ride this wave of being relieved this is his Merle, not some different man with different memories.]
You can take care of 'em yourself now. Whenever you amble back to the house. 'Ss all still there.
no subject
Yeah, great! I'd hate to have to start over on collectin' cool stuff. Y-- at this point, it just wouldn't be the same. Good to know you guys were all keeping the homestead locked down. I bet if I remembered it while I was back home, I'd've really appreciated it.
no subject
[It’s playful, though. Not malicious. He’s just taking out a bit of his stress, trying to release the tension he’s carried in his shoulders from the too quiet house.]
So. Not that I expect you to give me a straight answer, but. I’unno, do we have to scrap our 69th death plans? Did Istus reappear to punch us in the face for fuckin’ it all up?
no subject
Still kickin'. The whole crew's still goin' strong! And Istus hasn't done anything. Y'know, yet. Got to see Pan, though! He's finally back in office.
no subject
Oh. Cool. So it’s not uh, not all wrapped up yet.
[Nnnot cool. Not cool at all.]
So how long did finding Pan take? Like, we talkin’ days, weeks…
no subject
Merle teeters a little bit on the not cool spectrum himself when he considers it. Luckily he's great at not considering it. Just trying to be grateful for how hashtag-blessed he is to not be dead and not be magicless. ]
Couple hours. Y'know, everyone split off to do their thing. I dunno what the hell you were doin'. Something with magic. Magnus fought a bear. I saw a big worm. Laid in the road. Hung out with John, hung out with a god.
[ Did he get any useful info out of the parley??? even he doesn't know, apparently, because he didn't mention it at all. But hey. Maybe he was like, well.... it's advice from the guy who killed me a bunch, let's see how this works out. More than likely, he got his magic back and stopped giving a shit. ]
But we all met back up and got our crap together on a plan. I just, uhh. Showed up before we got to doing the plan.
no subject
Well… yeah. Got it.
[Like what else is he gonna fuckin’ say to that? Merle did give him the important detail, which was just a few hours. It’s a matter of less than a day to getting his memories back, to getting Lup back, to hitting the Hunger. Got it. Good to know.]
How was uh, Hungryman doin’? Probably pretty pissed he couldn’t find us for like twelve fuckin’ years. Guess he didn’t kill you again though.
no subject
Yeah, he didn't bother with it. He called collect and I accepted the charges this time. [ John "the hungryman" Hunger Man. ] He looked like shit. And I dunno, I guess he's dead now? Not callin' the shots anymore. The floor ate him. It was this whole thing.
no subject
Wow. Hunger finally vored itself. And you got to see it without the rest of us. Fuckin' shame.
[He stretches his legs, moving them from being crossed to straight out in front of him.]
So you just gonna sit here with your, uh, apocalypse tree detox or whatever?
[He could keep cracking shit, but really, there's something else in his mind.]
...Mags is back. Kind of. You seen him yet?
no subject
[ Merle scratches behind his ear. With his hand, not with his foot like a weird animal. He's not that flexible. Maybe someday. ]
Yeah. Yeah, I saw him. [ It's...
It's sad, is what it is, really. Having him but not-him. The him they knew way longer versus the him they met after it was all stripped down. And yeah, it's still Magnus, down at the core. Good heart, beefy arms, rushing in, whatever. But the old comfort doesn't make it less sad.
At least they've still got him at all. ]
Y'know, I'm gonna say it. The Dos Lonely Boys gotta stop meetin' like this, Taako. We gotta start putting our foot down about it.
no subject
Psh, you're telling me. Shitty group with just the two of us. It's uh, way too good with just you and me, we need him to balance it out and force us into stupid plans.
[Just feels like another absence. Another thing this place has taken, or forced him into.]
Shit sucks, frankly.
no subject
[ Because they were so productive all the time before, apparently. Merle, you ignorant slut. ]
Who knows. Maybe, maybe he'll get pushed out through that revolving door again and show up remembering all the good times. Th- uh. Remember that time he lost his pants? We can make fun of him for it.
no subject
Part of Taako is carrying this heavily, but Merle is good at making him think of something else much more fun. He grins at him, the devious tug of a smile with no good intentions.]
Oh my god, we could tell him he did literally anything. He'd just believe us. We are unlimited in this moment, Merle. We have to find something fucking incredible.
no subject
Yeah, can't believe our good buddy future Magnus is a cat person. Really blindsided us.
no subject
Gosh, I know, right? It's so remarkable how he's actually a bard now. Gave up that fighter thing entirely. Real shock for all of us.
no subject
He's cracking up, for the record. ]
Yeah, he chopped my arm off and traded his axe in for a lute!
no subject
Oh yeah, was just, just so distraught. Had to make it up to you in pure song. It was the only way. He keeps, uh, fucking shattering them with his bare hands? Great to watch. Auditory nightmare.
