Event Log: The Beach Episode

[hadrielmods]

Who: Everyone!
What: The event log for the transition to our new planet!
Where: The city, which has now been fragmented onto four separate islands.
When: May 27th-June 10th
Warnings: Surf's up! If by 'surf', you mean separation from your friends, weird sea creatures, and cold rainfall.

The sun and the sand and a drink in your hand- well, it all sounded pretty nice when you voted for the island planet, but ultimately what you're getting is a bit less glamorous.

The transition takes place instantaneously, with very little noteworthy shakeup, though those of you who are particularly in-tune with the supernatural may feel a bit dizzied or nauseated by the sudden movement. And that's exactly what it is: for those of you who are outside, the change is fairly noticeable, as in the span of a single blink, what used to be miles of desert is now rocky ocean. The city is simply in one place one moment, and then somewhere entirely new a second later.

And that somewhere new is exciting! The islands have plenty of landscape to explore and weather conditions to adjust to, fish to catch, and- wait, how do you get to the other islands? What if your friends or your home or the bar is on these other islands? Enjoy having to figure out who is where and how you're going to get by with only a small fraction of the city to work off of- hopefully those boats will come sooner rather than later...

In a matter of seconds, Caedra's rapier takes form in her hand and she holds it at the ready, black eyes watching his every move as if daring him to fuck up.

"Who in the depths are you, that you think you can just show up here and tell me what to do?"

She can't die. Not here, anyway. If the Null want to descend and kill the gods and all these people it won't bother her one bit. Working together? Slim chance. All she has to do is figure out what the nature of the Door is and why it's preventing her from returning home the way she usually would. This asshole seems to assume she has the same limitations as all the other mortals do, and she's poised and ready to show him why making that assumption is the wrong move.

Gren is a hundred percent unimpressed by this broad pulling a weapon on him. Sure, whatever, you got a sword, he's got an inherent magical protection against bladed weapons that makes it so that he can't get cut. If she wants to see what happens when that immovable object gets hit by an unstoppable force, like, okay. Waste of everybody's time.

"Whatever, lady. Put your fuckin' dick away."

He's zero percent in the mood for this pissing contest.

"I don't give a shit what you do. Take my advice or don't, it ain't any skin off my ass."

The bluntness of his retort surprises her enough to get a short laugh instead of something more negative. No, the sword is staying out, but especially now that he's backing off his previous insistent tone, she's willing to let herself be amused, just a little.

"I don't take advice from people who I have never spoken to before and who insist on being so patronizing," she replies. "At least give me a name so I know who thinks he's so important that he can hand out unwanted advice."
