Intro Log: Eight Legs No Heart

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for June.
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: June 10th-15th
Warnings: Spiders. Soooo many spiders. New people. Probably swearing.


For once, the new arrivals to Hadriel will not be waking up on the cold hard ground of the colosseum. Oh, sure, you'll still awaken in the arena - but this time the Door has been kind enough to ensure that you wake up comfortably arranged in a very nice chair. Or maybe not so comfortably. Some of those look pretty awkward - hopefully you didn't wake up with a crick in your neck! And hey, feel free to try to drag some of these super cool chairs to your new homes. They're probably not cursed or anything.

As you make your way out of the arena, be careful getting to close to the walls - well, except that's the only way out, so good luck! Chilling up on there waiting to get the drop on you are Skulltulas. These funky-looking spiders have squishy underbellies, but their upper exoskeletons are hard and very difficult to break through. They really just want to nibble you a few times, and maybe suck out all of your blood. No big deal, right? Have fun!

Have you conquered your arachnophobia and managed to escape? Great! Feel free to go explore the rest of the city! Find a house, find a new monster, or simply scavenge for supplies. Good luck, and enjoy your stay in Hadriel!

► This log covers June 10th-15th.
► Feel free to make your own logs as well!
► All characters arrive with phones that have network communication.
► Please put your character's name and open/closed in the subject line of your starters!

Aye-aye, sir!

[Hey, look an exit! Krieg goes ahead and lurches on for it. Any spiders still remaining skitter out of the way after the seeing the way their brethren seem to have ended up, which is both disappointing and also incredibly satisfying.]
sisterincrime: (is that so)

[personal profile] sisterincrime 2016-06-14 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
[Aw yeah, look at her wrangling psychos like a pro. There is a lot of satisfaction to be had in catching up to Krieg and watching the spiders make way. But when they get out of the arena and into the cave itself, Sasha pauses again as a wave of... something like nostalgia, maybe, hits her.]

It... almost looks like Prosperity Junction. [Then she catches herself, and adds.] Y'know, without the, like. Neon and scumbags.
fleshing: (I LOVE TO WAIT FOR MY MEALS!!)

[personal profile] fleshing 2016-06-14 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
LIKE HOOOOME!

[Yeah, sorry about that volume thing. Now that they're not visibly attracting danger, he's gonna belt it out like there's no tomorrow.]

GOT PLENTY OF GOOD PICKINGS, TOO!

[AKA that thing she said about scumbags is totally true. Whoops.]
sisterincrime: (you're welcome)

[personal profile] sisterincrime 2016-06-14 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
[Million dollar question: is he referring to scumbags, monsters, or possibly even dead people's faces? Everything is good pickings to a Psycho and none of it is actually good, so Sasha just sighs.]

Greeeeat...

[She's also not sure why she's still talking to this guy like he can actually comprehend what she's saying. She's carrying most of this conversation. But he hasn't turned on her or gotten distracted and wandered off: so for now, he's the closest thing she had to good company.

Wow that's sad.

Are there any other Pandorans here? Maybeeee one in a black and red jacket and a nice hat?

[Krieg lights up immediately at that, thoroughly enthusiastic.]

HATE LADYYYYYY!

[He knows hat lady!! She's a good friend of his!! Well, she hasn't tried to kill him, and has tolerated his shouting fairly well and is from home too, so that's just like a friend in Krieg's book!]

She owes me five or seven steaks in the shape of her smile.
sisterincrime: (flirt flirt)

[personal profile] sisterincrime 2016-06-14 01:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[That's... good, right? It sounds good, he certainly seems to think positively of Fiona, if nothing else. If it's actually her. Either way, she smiles back just as enthusiastically.]

Yes! Great, excellent! Do you have any idea where she is right now? She disappeared after the Traveller dropped all its loot.
fleshing: (NNGGH GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!!)

[personal profile] fleshing 2016-06-14 04:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Hrrhgh.

["Traveller" sounds like a Vault-thing. But it doesn't sound like a familiar Vault-thing? He doesn't know, god. Krieg seems to contemplate her words at length, for what it's worth.]

Living large in a dream?!

[Yeah, okay, sighs Brain Voice, irritatingly asserting itself as a thing that's still relevant here, that's helpful.]
sisterincrime: (nothing more nothing less)

[personal profile] sisterincrime 2016-06-16 07:47 am (UTC)(link)
[That had to refer to the Vault, right? Because this place was definitely a nightmare. And everyone knew Psychos were so nuts because they were obsessed with Vaults.]

Yes and no? We never started this whole mess to open a Vault, we just wanted to foist this fake key onto someone and make off with the money. We'd be set for life if it hasn't gotten messed up.

[She's still not sure she can say Rhys and Vaughn fucking the deal up was a good thing or not, but it was definitely a life changer.]
fleshing: (WHO WANTS THE FIRST SLICE?!)

[personal profile] fleshing 2016-06-16 05:38 pm (UTC)(link)
You're allllllll stuck!

[That much he can say for sure. Krieg punctuates it with a pound of his fist against one of his shoulders, for no other reason than it just seemed to feel right.]

Stuck in one place, nowhere to go bu down, down, down!
sisterincrime: (are you kidding me)

[personal profile] sisterincrime 2016-06-16 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[She's quick to turn on him before logic can kick back in - how the hell would he know about her hating being stuck on Pandora, how the hell was she planning to fight a giant Psycho - but her anger quickly peters out when she looks at him and happens to glance further up, spotting the rock walls that climb up and off into the gloom way above them.]

...right. I guess we are.
fleshing: (YOU'RE IN MY SPOT!!)

[personal profile] fleshing 2016-06-16 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[He watches her closely, oddly closely, head to one side.]

Monsters in the gears, [he adds sagely.] All 'round and 'round like a merry-go-round! Box us in!
sisterincrime: (nothing more nothing less)

[personal profile] sisterincrime 2016-06-18 07:13 am (UTC)(link)
[She doesn't like the feeling of a Psycho staring at her with what feels something like clarity, and she stares back, almost defiant but entirely curious.

You said something like that before. "They keep us in a circle" - who is they, why are we--

[............she's asking a Psycho about what is rapidly turning into metaphysics.

Instead she just sighs.
]

...you know what, never mind. Thanks for the save back there. I owe you one.

[Wowie!!! She's only been here a few minutes and she owes him a favor too!!! This is a great day, and she already has something in common with Hat Lady!!

Krieg makes a warped, delighted sound as he forms a fingergun with one hand - Hat Lady taught him that one!]


Aye-aye, Cap'n!

[And without much more warning, hares off in the opposite direction.]
