Intro Log: Ugh, Talk to the Hand

[hadrielmods]

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for February
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: February 10th-14th
Warnings: None

Welcome to Hadriel. Your first glimpse of your new home is maybe not the most welcome - you awaken on the floor of the colosseum, surrounded by sand and walls and... trees? Yes, trees. Along with you and the other newcomers, a number of Territorial Oaks have arrived in Hadriel. They look just like normal trees, except for those welcoming smiles - oh, and they don't like you at all. They move fast, hit hard, and if you manage to bring one down it'll go out in a large, dangerous explosion. This may have you rethinking your stance on clear-cutting.

While you're trying to avoid the trees, you might come across a few of the other things the Door has deposited in the colosseum for your (its?) entertainment. Namely, a bunch of toys that no one has played with in years. But maybe one of them will tickle your fancy?

Once you've finished indulging your 90's nostalgia, feel free to look around. You can explore the rest of the city! Find a house, a new monster, a project to help with, or simply scavenge for supplies. Good luck, and enjoy your stay in Hadriel!

► This log covers February 10th-14th.
► Feel free to make your own logs as well!
► All characters arrive with phones that have network communication and the newbie guide installed.
► Please put your character's name and open/closed in the subject line of your starters!

[that will help him in his adjustment. in her world, she's heard of alternate universes and other planets are a fact of life. granted, it seems odd that there are so many versions of Earth out there.

sympathetically] Yeah, I can imagine. I don't. . . know much about your period of history, but it sounds like it was really hard.

[she'd be afraid of disrupting the timelines. granted, she's pretty sure that the world he comes from isn't the one she's from.

she notices the smile drop from his face and feels badly about it. maybe she said something wrong. she bites her lower lip for a moment, then ventures]

Are you. . . are you okay?

[freewilling]

[ honestly, with so many lives at stake - he wouldn't have waited for permission. ]

Yeah, [ her question snaps him out of his own head, and he glues a smile back on ] just having kind of a weird day. [ to say the least. no, he's not okay, he and okay aren't in the same universe, but she's a young girl, and doesn't need his troubles. if someone could be there for his sisters, he would like that very much. the least he can do is his best for the people here. ]

[she smiles back tentatively] Here can be weird, too. You know, considering the aliens and the Null and even the other people who live here. But most people are good. They really are. It was kind of--surprising? [technically, she's an adult by her world's standards. and she's older than her years, thanks to her time serving as her ambassador mother's assistant]
