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...

[This is as close as Leo's likely to get to the water. He hates and fears the ocean with a passion, since it's one of the few ways to kill the near-invulnerable monster. He sees a kid staring out at a cliff's edge and it makes him stop. He hasn't seen any kids since last being in Reims before coming here.]

You look like someone with something on your mind.

[He's generally a lot nicer to kids than to adults. Most kids have pure souls and bring out the protective older-brother instinct he has. Leo looks just like any other human being, just ridiculously good-looking, as all Sunai monsters are. It's easier to attract prey when people let their guard down and they tend to do that around those who are good-looking.]

Sorry for the super late response 8D

[Mokuba glances over at the person talking, his robodragon Hiryu bringing itself up into a more defensive position just in case.]

I was just trying to think of a way to get to one of the other islands. [He gives a little shrug.]

No worries!

[stealyoursoul]

Why do you need to get to the other islands?

[He'll need to eventually get to one of the other islands himself to visit Hope's temple, but Leo really doesn't want to think about that right now. In fact, he'd be fine thinking about it never. Avoidance is a fine technique.]

[blueeyesbond]

My brother's on a different one. [He'll be fine on his own but still. It's not fun being separated again.]

[stealyoursoul]

[That's pretty much an instant way to gain Leo's sympathies. He thinks about August, his little brother still at home, and Seth, the older adopted brother he has here. He sits down beside Mokuba.]

You're handling it a lot better than I would. If I was separated from one of my brothers, I'd be going crazy.

[blueeyesbond]

[Mokuba gives a wry smile ever so slightly.] This... isn't the first time we've been separated. Sort of. It's complicated and the story would probably take awhile to tell. But this is a lot better than some of the other times.

[stealyoursoul]

Seems like we have nothing but time if you want to tell it.

[He glances at the robodragon. It's a curious-looking thing, but he's seen stranger in his time both in Reims and here.]

[blueeyesbond]

Well... You know how people have been dragged here from their own worlds? And not everyone is from the same one? I've been to two other places that did the same thing before I was brought here, places where people get taken from their worlds.

[stealyoursoul]

[Leo nods. He gets it.]

Sounds familiar. I was in a place where you couldn't make noise or monsters would kill you before I ended up here.
