World Log: Jungle Arrival

[hadrielmods]

Who: Everyone in the city
What: The event log for the Planet Transfer
Where: All over the city
When: March 28th
Warnings: None

One minute you're freezing your ass off in the middle of a light snowstorm, and the next you're suddenly boiling in the wet heat. Sunlight streams down through green- so much green, more green than you could possibly have imagined since coming to Hadriel- and it's beautiful in its own way, if you're into that sort of thing.

The more sensitive of citizens may feel some slight nausea from the move but otherwise everything is as it should be. Alien birds squawk in the trees, you can hear the local fauna rustling through the brilliantly-colored leaves. Everything is alien here, but a forest is universal. Luckily, a section of forest has been cleared away for the city, so you can still see the sky above and you can still move around without getting lost in the thick foliage that surrounds this place, but be careful when exploring! There's no telling what could be out there, and you want to be prepared for anything.

So what is your new home like? It's hot, for one- you might want to shed and burn all those winter coats and Christmas sweaters immediately! You'll be sweating buckets before the day is over, but at least we still have cold showers to help wash off the grime as you adjust to your new life in an alien jungle. Have fun, enjoy your stay, but don't forget: we may need to fight here soon. Be ready.

[No, no he did not. And now he's paying for it. Through magical girl screaming. Case in point, he speaks and her eyes are the size of dinner plates. She looks like she might explode into pure sparkles. It's just a Lot.]

Oh. M-My. God.

[And then she just screams again and hugs him.]

I can't believe it!! You're a magical girl!! Ohmygodohmygodohmygod WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME IS THE OTHER GUY YOU'RE ALWAYS FIGHTING WITH ONE TOO.

[battlebound]

( Um. W-well. That's... Did he say that? Honestly, Steak can't quite tell any more. He just explained a Food Soul, didn't he? )

Red Wine? ( Ugh, well, if nothing else, he can admit that much. ) We-We're both Food Souls, yes.

[sciencelizard]

Ohhhhmygoddddddd.

[She takes her hands off him just to drag them down her face instead.]

This is amazing. This is-- I d-don't even know what to do I always thought I was going to know if someone actually was what I would say or do but I don't I'm just gonna die instead.

[She won't actually die, but like, he might not know that.]

How did you get your powers!! Do you have transformation sequences!! Songs???

i hate food fantasy lore, a novel by me

[battlebound]

( ... Songs? Is that part of it? )

It's how we were created. ( This is really where he regrets trying to explain. He's no Food Soul historian or scientist. All Steak really knows or cares about is that he was created to assist and protect humans, and that's what he's good at. ) We always have our powers, regardless of whether we have an Attendant or not.

( After all, he hasn't had one for centuries. It all depends on their Soul Power. )

im so sorry to make this Worse

[sciencelizard]

[Oh! That's unexpected. Being made into magic like that is fascinating, and while she's technically in the same boat, this feels like a whole other situation here. Like, he has horns, his is cooler by default.

Disregard that in this scenario she's a giant lizard. He is just like one of her animes.]

What's an attendant? Do you give them your powers? You have to tell me if you have animal sidekicks too who give you your stuff or tell you your destiny or is that you!!!

[It's like she's talking too fast to stutter. Or she hasn't breathed? Who knows.]
