Event Log: Fadeout

Who: Everyone participating in the event!
What: The event log for the Fadeout event!
Where: All around the city
When: November 15th-November 25th
Warnings: None!


The morning of November the 15th seems rather normal- that is, if you can avoid the glowing cracks in the fabric of reality tucked away among various streets. Still, they don't really seem to be doing much of anything and you can't quite see through them, so maybe they're decoration? This wouldn't be the first time the gods pulled some weird shit to shake things up around here.

By midafternoon, however, something changes. Cecily, in all her wisdom, decides to attempt to dispel one of these rifts, and the resulting shockwave sends tremors through the city. Tears throughout Hadriel open wider and allow for various demons to burst through and terrorize the various citizens. Demons will be tearing through in all corners of the city, though you can choose to avoid them if you like.

Look out for Pride and Rage demons, who attempt to brute force their way to you and feed off of your anger, steel yourselves against Despair and Fear demons who grow stronger as you give up hope, and definitely cross the street to avoid the Desire demons, who can take either male or female forms and will offer you everything you want if you just let them in.

Demons will either focus on attacking you or tempting you by taking advantage of and feeding off of your basic emotions. Agreeing to let a demon help you and mentally folding to it generally means that the demon will begin to possess you and start calling the shots- often using you as a vessel to hurt others and sow discord. If you happen to have any sort of magical abilities, extended possession can lead toward becoming an abomination after the corruption takes root.

So... you might want to avoid all of that. Luckily, there are some good things happening that can distract you- along with the demons, several nugs and fennec foxes will also pop up around the city, and if you don't want them to die a horrible death to a hungry demon, you might consider adopting them. In addition, you may find a random potion laying around- maybe this can help you fight off those demons, or maybe it'll make every nug in the city love you- or maybe it's secretly a jar of bees. Wouldn't be the first time you guys let bees in jars get a little out of hand.

► This log covers November 15th-November 25th.

Pharah || OTA

[personal profile] justice_from_above 2016-11-16 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
Demons

Pharah has by now gotten herself a room in a spire and established a routine wherein she wakes up early, uses the circular staircase for a quick, jog, showers and eats, then dons her armor and proceeds outside for patrols. She doesn't trust the rifts and generally tries to keep her distance, but she does want to keep an eye on the area in case they end up doing something weird.

Which, of course, is exactly what happens when Cecily tries to close one and Pharah's hit with the shockwave. It's not long before the demons follow, and Pharah immediately jets into the air to get away from them. From there, though, she takes a quick look around to see if anyone else needs assistance. Does she notice you? Do you flag her down? Or maybe you catch her when she's forced to land and the demons find that an opportune time to attack; maybe, then, she needs your help.

Foxes

It's not just people that Pharah helps. Well into the fight, Pharah can be seen cradling a little Fennec fox pup in her hand. At this point, she's trying to get the poor thing to safety in her own home before heading back out to the fight, but it's a fight just to get back to her apartment. Help a fox out?

If Adam had known there would be demons flooding the streets, he'd definitely have stayed home. Fighting in general isn't really his thing, and fighting demons is even less of his thing. But unfortunately, no one posted signs saying 'Demons Coming Today!' so here he is, trying to make his way home from the clinic when suddenly - demons.

He ducks into a doorway to try to hide, assessing the situation. Maybe if he runs he can get home, or maybe he can use his magic to hide himself, or - something. He hates asking for help, but when he sees Pharah - well, she's much better equipped for this than he is.

"Hey," he calls out, trying to keep from attracting any attention.

Pharah looks down towards the voice, and then quickly jets her way over. She's not just dressed for the occasion; she's a protector at the heart; it's her drive, and instinct, and without a word she immediately puts herself between Adam and the incoming demons. She spares one moment to glance at him over her shoulder.

"Hide. I've got this."
unknowable: (can you read my mind)

[personal profile] unknowable 2016-11-21 05:11 am (UTC)(link)
Adam doesn't need to be told twice. As soon as she's blocking the view of the demons - as soon as he's pretty sure they won't know exactly where he's gone - he shoves the door behind him open with his shoulder and most of his body weight. The building inside is nothing much, another ruined shop, but it provides a little cover. He stays near the door, just in case, and peers out to make sure she's all right.

Still attempting to save her rockets if at all possible, Adam can watch as she grapples and fights with the demons hand to hand - at times using her rocket launcher as a blunt instrument. When possible, she grabs one or two and jets into the air, a moment later their bodies dropping back to the ground. Once the immediate threats have been dealt with, she walks over and knocks on the door.

"It's safe now ... at least, for the moment."
unknowable: (you say I'm falling behind)

[personal profile] unknowable 2016-11-22 06:29 am (UTC)(link)
Well, it's sure a lot better than he could manage. He's impressed, especially by the flying - but then, with a suit like that, who knows what else she's capable of doing?

He opens the door when she knocks, slipping out through the opening.

"Thanks. I wasn't really expecting... um, demons. Or whatever. Are you all right?"

[personal profile] justice_from_above 2016-11-30 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
"I'm fine. I'm built for this. You, however; what are you doing out?"

Her pristine armor has a few scoring marks on it now, a couple splotches of demon blood she will be polishing off later, but for the most part it has kept her unscathed.
unknowable: (I wanna breathe that fire again)

[personal profile] unknowable 2016-12-01 09:56 am (UTC)(link)
"I didn't mean to be. I help out at the clinic, I was just heading home. Then all of this happened."

Adam does have a decent amount of good sense, enough that he tries to stay out of situations where he'd need to fight. If he had known there would be demons, well, he'd probably have never left home this morning at all.

[personal profile] justice_from_above 2016-12-02 04:39 pm (UTC)(link)
"Is it normal for this sort of thing to happen so suddenly?"

She motions to him to lead the way; she'll escort him the remainder of his journey.
unknowable: (you never returned that call)

[personal profile] unknowable 2016-12-04 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
"Unfortunately, yes."

He looks around carefully as he comes out of the shop. Adam has no desire to be ambushed by demons, even with an oddly helpful lady in armor who seems to be willing to watch his back. He's definitely not going to turn down the help, at least.

"Every couple weeks it seems like something weird happens. Not always like this, but something."
justice_from_above: (pic#10300368)

[personal profile] justice_from_above 2016-12-05 06:31 am (UTC)(link)
It's the least she can do, to keep him safe. Fareeha follows, glancing down at him inbetween checking their surroundings.

"Guess we much be on our toes, then, and expect anything to happen?"
unknowable: (you say I'm falling behind)

[personal profile] unknowable 2016-12-06 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
"That's the smartest thing to do. You never know what it'll be next."

For now, the streets seem safe enough. Adam doesn't waste time - he heads toward his house. It'll be a lot safer inside.

"Are you new around here?"
justice_from_above: (pic#10322370)

[personal profile] justice_from_above 2016-12-06 07:12 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yes. I'm still getting a feel for this place, but it certainly hasn't wasted time in showing me what it's capable of."

Fareeha easily matches his quick pace, not letting up in keeping vigilant to their surroundings.

[Alphys is 100% No Fighter, but she's unfortunately incredibly noticeable- being a monster of pure magic, she's easily attracted a few lower-level demons tailing her through the streets. She's ducking through to try and get away, looking out for anything she can use to cover her exit, when--

Is that a Gundam? No. No that's too small to be a Gundam. But it does look like power armor and a rocket launcher, which, objectively, is awesome, and also means they've probably got some demon fighting experience.

So she ducks around a corner, looks up, and waves her arms around a bit in a hopefully) recognizable symbol of 'oh-god-please-blast-the-demons-with-your-rocket-launcher' sort of motion.]

[At first glance she's not sure what she's seeing, but that creature - whether human or not - isn't acting like the other demons and definitively looks to Pharah like she's needs some help.]

[She blasts off her perch, hovers closer to the gang of demons, and then lets loose a carefully placed rocket into the center of the fray; two of them are caught in its direct path, and the rest scatter from the residual damage. Pharah hovers down to alight on the ground and peer around the corner at the little yellow ... thing.]


Are you alright?
sciencelizard: (« [Excited] MEW MEW!!!!!)

[personal profile] sciencelizard 2016-11-23 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh my god, there is a person in there. This is like Metroid but better. This is like Metroid written by Hideaki Anno but it's real and talking to her. Holy shit.

She shakes her head a bit to dissuade her looking... like, entirely too starstruck, all things considered.]


Y-Yeah. I mean, uh, I am now that those things are gone, because uhm, you blasted them, which was so cool by the w-way-- is that a real rocket launcher? I mean, of course it is, you shot it, I saw that, and uh, you were flying which is amazing--

[She cuts herself off by gripping her fist into her labcoat as a reminder of shut up, shut up, that's not what she asked.]

Uh, anyway, thank you! I hope I didn't uh, d-distract you from something important.
justice_from_above: (pic#10326678)

[personal profile] justice_from_above 2016-11-23 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
[Pharah chuckles at the little lizard's enthusiasm, and kneels down to be closer to her level.]

What do you mean? I am doing something important. [She holds her hand out.] You can call me Pharah. And yes, this is a rocket launcher, but I've got to be careful because I only have a limited number of rockets.

Unless, you happen to know anyone who can craft rockets?
sciencelizard: (« [Blush] SUPER DOKIS)

[personal profile] sciencelizard 2016-11-29 07:56 am (UTC)(link)
[She can't help but blush when Pharah crouches down. Oh jeez, she's pretty too. And it's a she! Haha! Oh god, she's fuckin gay god save her.

She clacks her claws together gently, moving from that to rubbing her hands together as she thinks.]


Well, uhm, I've never made, uh, weapons, specifically, but I am an engineer. I d-don't know uh, what they're made of, but uhm, if I could find parts, or, something-- I mean, I should probably repay you for saving me, r-right?
justice_from_above: (pic#10326696)

omg Alphys is the cutest thing everrrr <3<3<3

[personal profile] justice_from_above 2016-11-30 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
You don't have to repay me for doing the right thing. In fact, if there is anywhere you need to go, let me escort you; this place seems to be overrun with nasties.

[She stands and checks her rocket launcher.] So you're saying if I brought you materials, you could make me rockets?
sciencelizard: (« [Embarrassed] BAWWWWWWWW)

she's very tiny and Very Gay (and i luv ur pharah she's gr8)

[personal profile] sciencelizard 2016-11-30 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
[THEY'RE GONNA WALK TOGETHER OOHMMYFDOODOGGOOD ok ok hold it together. Do Not Explode, holy shit. She still blushes harder, though. This is so much.]

Uh, if that's o-okay with you, and-- oh! Yes, uhm, probably. As long as you have, uh, one t-that's working that I could take a look at? I could, uh, replicate it, if there's parts. I'm pretty used to working w-with scrap metal and magic, uh, and everything.

Gneee thanks :3

[Pharah isn't sure why this little creature is so flustered, but it is endearing.]

Magic, is that so?

[She hadn't had much experience with it before arriving here, even if some of the technological advances in her world could almost be considered magic.]

-- and you haven't told me your name. It would be nice to know, if we're going to be working together.

sciencelizard: (« [Embarassed] too many compliments yo)

♥♥

[personal profile] sciencelizard 2016-12-05 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, yeah, I mean, I'm better at engineering than magic, even t-though it's more persistent, maybe your world doesn't have as much? Or, it-- oh gosh you asked my name I'msosorry.

[She finally stops to take a breath.]

It's Alphys. D-Dr. Alphys, technically, but just Alphys is fine.
justice_from_above: (pic#10326701)

♥♥♥

[personal profile] justice_from_above 2016-12-05 04:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, it is nice to meet you, Alphys. Where were you headed? I can escort you the rest of the way.

[Fareeha casts a look about them, making sure that no other demons are trying to get hte drop on them.]

Any magic in my world is usually just advanced technology that seems impossible. Admittedly I have a hard time believing in the gods here; I imagine they must just hold the secret to some pretty powerful tech.
sciencelizard: (« [Scared] F E A R)

[personal profile] sciencelizard 2016-12-08 07:32 am (UTC)(link)
I was, uh, h-heading back to my apartment, actually? In, uh, Delight's housing.

[She listens to the explanation, and immediately her words begin to get away from her.]

Oh! Well, no, m-magic definitely exists, I mean, it's what I'm made of, as a monster. Humans are more solid but monsters are made of magic, and that's why w-we can channel it and use it while human's can't, but it interacts with science in it's own unique way and can be tracked and studied just l-like physics and... you... p-probably don't care about. Uh. All that.

[She shuts her mouth immediately, a little mortified at her lack of an ability to shut up basically at all.]
justice_from_above: (pic#10326696)

[personal profile] justice_from_above 2016-12-08 08:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[She chuckles and pats Alphys's shoulder.]

I don't mind at all. It's beneficial to know how other worlds work, especially since we're all forced to exist here together.

I might not understand the more technical aspects but I appreciate the basic overview.
