Intro Log: Eight Legs No Heart

[hadrielmods]

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!

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]

[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]

[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]

[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.

[fleshing]

[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.]
