hadriel_logs | Event Log: Old Friends And New

Who: Characters in Hadriel and all Fourth Wall attendees
What: Fourth Wall Event!
Where: All around the city
When: The Door malfunctions and brings folks from all different worlds into Hadriel. The more the merrier!
Warnings: None

The city is a little more... crowded than usual. Throughout the week, you may see a few more faces around, some familiar and some unfamiliar- you may even witness certain characters just popping in and out of existence as the Door flexes its uncertain power. Luckily, this seems to be the only effect of the Door's experimentation so far, but that's not to say that the worry ends here.

Some of you may find friends from home, others may find enemies, or just new allies or people you really don't get along with. Either way, it's time for a party as the gods scramble to put some sort of gathering together so that you can all take care of one another and the gods don't have to deal with another mass influx of people when they aren't ready for it. Aren't they nice?

So enjoy your music, your food, and the random assortments of items you may be able to find in the shops. The kindness won't last forever, but the gods are fairly certain that this explosion of new people is just temporary, so enjoy it while you can!

Due to the Door's meddling, some of the new people may enter the city already aware of their predicament. In order to cut down on some confusion, new visitors from the door may find that they're already aware of the conflict they're a part of, the city they're in, and have some vague idea of the gods they're surrounded by. They may even be aware that their stay here is temporary- still, there's no reason not to find shelter and food and a few allies to help you ease the way.

((OOC: Gowther has an illusion ability that allows him to tamper with memories. If you want anything of the sort, please feel free to hit me up.))

Gowther stirs easily enough when waking up in the Colosseum. And looking at his surroundings, this is not the last place he remembers being. A new prison, perhaps as he looks at the surrounding structure. Can't hurt to wander, he supposes, and then he gets up. Wandering through the halls, he finds himself the exit, and enters into the city.

"Strange." He doesn't remember being any place like this. And the people seem widely unfamiliar, too.

That's when he looks your way.

"Excuse me, can you tell me where I am?"

"Hey--"

The sudden income of people is surprising, noticeable, of course he'd eventually come across someone he's never seen before. That hair, though, he's missed the sign of people with bright colored hair. Atem smiles at the other.

"You're in Hadriel, and..." Damn, how to even explain it... "Do you have a phone with you?"

It only takes a flash of a moment, for Gowther to scan Atem's memories of this world.

"Hadriel. I see."

As for the phone...

He pats around for one on himself, something that he's not sure he has, or if he's right. But finally, he holds the device up.

"Is this what you're looking for?"

This one seems awfully tranquil about suddenly being in an unknown place, but that's better than some who suddenly start screaming at the top of their lungs to let them go home.

"Yeah, that, it has all the info you need to know. You know how to use it? I could teach you. I'm Atem by the way, and you?"

Well, what are feelings, after all? Gowther has yet to find out (or remember, really). And curiosity always gets the better of him.

Atem seems friendly enough. And, well, there are no recognizable faces in the vicinity. It seems as good an opportunity as any. To have something there.

If Atem feels it, it'll be just barely. But just like that, certain memories are gone with people that Atem has come to be familiar with and replaced with many memories, either edited or completely fabricated, of being long-time friends since Atem's arrival to this place.

"It's Gowther." Don't you remember, Atem?

Atem does feel something, something being tugged in his mind, something like a heavy cloud surrounding his thoughts, but it passes quickly, he just blinks a few times though. He attributes it to what he did a few days ago, helping that tree grow though glyphcrafing. The next moment he looks up at Gowther, there is a different shine in his eyes, he's absolutely delighted.

"Gowther--! Where had you been? I was looking for you! The Door is acting up and bringing new people here. Anyway, you okay?"

"Sorry to make you worry. Yes, I'm fine."

Even though he says all that, his tone is flat.

So lots of people are coming in; it's not just him. Interesting.

"You are fine, too, yes? Perhaps we should get something to eat?" Food is something friends do, right?

The flat tone does not bother Atem at all, how could it, it's just Gowther being Gowther and that's is fine.

"You read my mind—" It's just an expression, of course... And Atem begins walking ahead of him, only looking back with an inviting manner, follow me, it says.

"The so called gods are throwing a party as if this was a celebration..." There is a bit of a biting tone at that, clearly he's not exactly happy at them lately, messing with them, then feeding them only to keep draining them from their feelings.

"Do you wanna practice your poses later?"

Gowther tilts his head a bit as Atem says that he read the Pharaoh's mind.

"Yes, I suppose you're right." It still strikes him as curious that Atem knew he had read his mind. Most people can't tell. But he follows Atem in stride.

"A party." He's having a hard time reading that biting tone. "You do not like parties, Atem?"

That must be the problem, right?

Gowther nods at the offer.

"Yes, that would be enjoyable. Which one should I practice first?"

"I do, I just think it's not the time for it." But what can he expect from some pseudo-gods that don't know anything about the world but their own? One could argue that he also doesn't know much about them and their customs, but he's tried to understand them. It's a little frustrating on its own.

"You know? I was thinking... Maybe you should try a Black Magician Girl pose." Surely he has told him about her!

((OOC: A little bit of God-mode permission received from Fiery, Atem's mun.))

After Atem and Kaiba have had a chance to 'catch up', Gowther takes some time with Atem himself. While Atem seems happy enough, Gowther is oddly emotionless, occasionally striking what seems to be a variety of magical girl poses. (Don't ask, he's weird.)

But after some time spent together, Gowther decides to make a little adjustment to Atem's memories, a few more involving him to favour his outcomes in... whatever this is. An experiment, maybe? Atem won't notice it, but when Gowther puts his hand up to Atem's head, something that looks like a pink bolt of electricity surges briefly between him and Atem.

Not long after, they bid goodbye to each other, and Gowther lingers for a moment, as if sorting his own thoughts and speculations.

Kaiba spots Atem easily from a distance, but stays back when he sees he's not alone. He doesn't want to be forced into a conversation with someone. Especially someone who looks just as ridiculous as any of Yugi's friends that he'd been constantly forced to interact with. He's about to walk away and catch up with Atem later when he sees the electricity.

What was that? First Atem had forgotten the past six months, and now he found someone using some electrical device on him. It may not be related, but it was too coincidental to ignore. He has long experience with Atem defending his friends to know it'll be more effective to wait until he's gone to confront whoever that is.

Moments after Atem leaves, Kaiba is behind Gowther. He stands at his full height with arms crossed to ask imperiously, "Who are you?"

Gowther looks over his shoulder at Kaiba's question. He doesn't at all appear to be intimidated by Kaiba's domineering presence.

"I am Gowther." That was easy. "The Goat Sin of Lust." Does that help?

Gowther adjusts his glasses briefly and turns himself to face Kaiba properly, looking up at him.

Kaiba's expression says everything he thinks about that introduction.

"What the hell does that mean? No, don't answer I don't care."

He doesn't return the greeting, and gets straight to business. "What were you doing with Yugi?"
