Event Log: Is It a Wonderful Life?

[hadrielmods]

Who: All characters participating in the event
What: The event log for Is It A Wonderful Life? event
Where: All over the city
When: Jan 4th-8th
Warnings: None

Throughout the next few days, you may find yourself plagued by visions and dreams of back home. The dreams will be lifelike and difficult to tell apart from reality, as the world will be constructed from what you remember of your world. However, unlike usual dreams, you won't be present, and will find yourself unable to be seen or heard by those around you.

The dreams are vivid reminders of what might happen in a world without you: a world in which you disappeared when coming to Hadriel, a world which desperately needs you back for some reason or another. You may see your parents putting up missing posters, your significant other moving onto their next relationship, or even your hated villain finally taking over the world without you there to stop them.

When the vision leaves, you're back here and nothing about the city has changed. Though maybe you have a different outlook on it now...

► This log covers January 4th-Januray 8th.

[those are the fake gods for you, always full of surprises]

I guess. It was weird, seeing people who barely knew me or hadn't known me at all being so determined to solve my murder.

[redcosmedic]

Did they? Solve it, that is.

[ Laura had already told him the identity of the murderer, but that knowledge did her no good. Others should know. Someone to serve justice for it. ]

[outofthefire]

Nope. Not that I could tell. The fake gods didn't let me see that part.

[and with her father's outward display of grief, no one suspected a thing]

[redcosmedic]

Perhaps they will yet, and the fake gods were simply too stingy to let you see it.

[ One can hope, at least. Though he knows well that not all murders have justified endings. ]

It was... something of the opposite, for mine.

[outofthefire]

Maybe? The guy in charge of the investigation was a little . . . different. He swore by Tibetan mysticism and visions.

[no, they don't. and from what she saw, she had little reason to hope that hers would]

...yeah? How so?

[redcosmedic]

The two visions that I had, I wasn't in either of them. But more than that...

[ he sounds a little contemplative, like he's not sure what to make of what he saw ]

More than that, it didn't seem as though anyone noticed.

[outofthefire]

[the last part visibly throws her]

Seriously? That sounds . . . creepy. Definitely one of the fake gods' better tricks. [tentatively] You all right?

[redcosmedic]

[ breezily: ] Never better, Laura. I'm taking it as a reminder to keep myself in the spotlight even more when I get back. Who else could fill it with as much style as I could, after all?
