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...

Being a soldier girl has given Rey plenty of navigation skills. Not everyone is cut out for it, but when you're someone with an attention and memory like Rey's, you catch on quick. She just nods at that thought.

When Law talks about leaving, Rey pauses a moment to think, scratching the side of her neck. Now that he mentions it...

"Well, it would be nice to pick up some stuff from the orchards and gardens to help distill more liquor. It's about the one thing keeping me sane right now."

God, she hates idle hands.

"Orchard's on the eastern island." Law thumbs over his shoulder at the other landmass in the near distance. They're closer to the west at the moment. "I suppose I could take a detour to drop you off. Or, if you want to come with me to the west, we can walk to the point where the two islands are closest and I can send you over."

See, he can be helpful when he wants to be. Besides, Rey's good people and more booze is best. The only thing he can't do, unless she calls him on the phone, is get her back to the Speakeasy.

Well, Law would know better about what's where than Rey. She doesn't have any special ability to get from one place to another in a blink.

And she thinks ahead when considering Law's offer.

"What about getting back? Don't suppose you could help with that as well."

It's one thing if she's just swimming, but carrying other things across the water without a boat is an even bigger pain that Rey doesn't want to entertain right now.

Well...

"I suppose," he sighs like it's going to be such an imposition. "But I'm not waiting around. Call me when you're done and I'll head over and bring you back."
