INTRO LOG: FACE OFF

[hadrielmods]

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for November. Don't get your face eaten!
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: November 10th-17th
Warnings: Monster-related violence, people lamps, general unpleasantness, mass confusion.

You wake up on the hard earth of the colosseum. By the state of things and the various aches and pains in your body, you've probably been passed out there for awhile. A few things should immediately become clear to you upon an initial assessment.

1. You're not alone
2. You're near other people who look to be in a similar state.
3. You're also near an assortment of human shaped lamps.
4. You're also near something that skitters off into the shadows of the colosseum.

Of all of these alarming things, the skittery object might be your largest concern. Be wary when turning corners or shutting out the lights: the Hunters work best when your vision is obscured, so their gelatinous form is even harder to spot. Their main goal will be to kill people of course, though they prefer to hide in corners and smaller rooms. Watch out when trying to work through the halls of the colosseum to find the outdoors- they're surprisingly quick, and they prefer to kill their prey by opening their face-flaps and wrapping their mouths around your head. Fun!

More information on Hunters can be found here!

Second largest concern? Maybe it's the people lamps. Maybe it's the actual people around you. Whatever it is, be sure to familiarize yourself with it quickly. The devil you know is better than the devil you don't, after all.

All done with the horrible monsters and awkward greetings? Try your hand at exploring the rest of the city! Find a house, find a new monster, or simply scavenge for supplies until your little heart is content. Good luck, and enjoy your stay in Hadriel!

I'll go, Wanda. Just promise me you'll stay here. I don't know where the others are right now, but you're welcome to stay as long as you like. There's two rooms free upstairs.

[Because hey, why not add to the women staying with him. Steve's Angels, right? Right. Wrong.]

[divulsion]

[No, she really doesn't like the idea of staying behind, especially not knowing what happened to Natasha...but Steve is insisting and Wanda can't come up with any argument against it.]

Fine, I will stay here, but only because I know I will slow you down.

[No, she would have gone anyway, but he's giving her a Look and both he and Natasha seem insistent on her being safe. So.] I'll...find a room for myself. For now.

[americanclassic]

For as long as you need, Wanda.

[He doesn't comment on her slowing him down, knows it'll only rub salt in the wound. She'd been complacent in coming here, agreeable to being tended to. The least he could do was be gracious about her being a liability.]

Try to get some rest. I'll see who I can find down there, and I'll keep my eye out for whatever else came through.

[divulsion]

[Rest. God. Wanda's not certain that she can, not until he's back or at least has gotten word to her that everything is okay. She takes a breath and finally nods.]

Very well. Watch your back.

[There's nothing left to say. Wanda looks away, to the stairs leading up, and back to him.]

Come find me when you return, tell me what happened. Okay?

[americanclassic]

Always do.

[He'd find Bucky while he was out, and Natasha. He'd set up arrangements for both to come find him here. He'd update Nat on Wanda's condition, kill any of the creatures that attacked him or civilians or teammates. And he'd come back and deal with a house full of women.

Just another day as an Avenger.]

I'll be back in time for dinner. Hopefully I can introduce you to the other two.

[divulsion]

[Wanda nods.]

When you return then.

[americanclassic]

[He made sure she had everything she needed so she wouldn't have to get up for a while, then made to head out the door, shield on his back as he prepared for whatever new things had crept in to tangle with.]

Stay safe.
