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.

[Heh. That's probably the first time someone's commented on something like that. He almost has to wonder if he can hear the way Sans speaks in all lower-case, the way his font is...

Nah. That'd be a little too weird, right?]


Not much of a believer?
devilsavocado: (screenreader; welp)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2016-11-24 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
[ Definitely too meta for Matt, unfortunately. He's just... big on the big G. ]

Not in them, anyway.

[ I mean he's not gonna convert anybody or anything, but he still goes to church back home. ]
skelebro: (shrugs illustratively)

[personal profile] skelebro 2016-11-24 05:12 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe they prefer the term "forces of nature." Who can say, right?

[Matt can probably hear the grin in his voice. That or just...tell that he's grinning, because he sounds pretty happy, in his own smug, enigmatic way. Then again, he always does.]
devilsavocado: (smirk; some would say that)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2016-11-24 07:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Don't skeletons always grin, Sans, there's a pun there-- but don't worry, he can hear it in Sans' voice. ]

Forces of feelings, maybe. [ He shrugs. ] If they stuck us here to feed off our emotions, they could call themselves gods all they want. They're kind of reaching, if you ask me.

[ Matt, you're shittalking gods in their own house, that's cold. ]
skelebro: (here today gone tomato)

[personal profile] skelebro 2016-11-24 07:48 pm (UTC)(link)
So what would you call 'em?

[He's genuinely curious here. Sans ain't anything near the realm of a theologian - most of his understanding of human religion is fairly sparse since no one really chucks bibles or Torahs or any such thing in the garbage.]
devilsavocado: (RYEemJP)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2016-12-11 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Aliens, usually.

[ LIKE THAT SOMEHOW MAKES MORE SENSE... ]

The ones back home turned out to be aliens, so hey, who knows. Could be they came from an alternate dimension.
skelebro: (you wanna explain my buddy chum pal)

[personal profile] skelebro 2016-12-11 11:01 pm (UTC)(link)
You had aliens where you come from? Yikes.

[But he sounds pretty droll about it. It's hard to surprise a guy like Sans; don't take it personally.]
devilsavocado: (convincing; listen to me)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2016-12-15 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, the Norse gods, apparently.

[ That sure is a thing. ]
skelebro: (itches are an abstract concept)

[personal profile] skelebro 2016-12-15 07:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh-huh, [says Sans, and then without missing a beat:] What's a Norse?

[Sorry, his grasp of human culture is pretty mediocre at best.]
devilsavocado: (screenreader; welp)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2016-12-15 08:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, right.

[ I mean he's a skeleton. Matt isn't surprised to find he's not up with the human history. ]

They're mythological gods, from Scandinavia and that kind of thing. They had a lot of stories about them, legends and all that.
skelebro: (take the easy road)

[personal profile] skelebro 2016-12-15 08:22 pm (UTC)(link)
So they ain't actually mythological, and they're aliens on top of it. Sounds straightforward.

[He ain't even gonna bother touchin' on "what's a Scandinavia," 'cause that ain't his purview. At all.]

Hey. What would you call it if a Norse robot had to buy a bird?
devilsavocado: (interested; confused)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2016-12-17 06:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, kind of threw people for a loop when that came out.

[ At least none of the old Norse folks were still alive to find out they'd been praying to aliens, but y'know. Gods are lame, that's the takeaway here. ]

Uh, what?
skelebro: (badabing)

[personal profile] skelebro 2016-12-17 07:12 pm (UTC)(link)
It Scandinavian.

[Eh????? Ehhhhhhh???????





C'mon, dude. That was solid gold.]
devilsavocado: (laughing; you're not wrong)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2016-12-19 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
[ Give him a minute here, he is.........

He can't fucking believe this. But he does crack a smile.
]

I can't believe I walked into that.

[ Sans, you would get along really well with Foggy. ]
skelebro: (doot doot)

[personal profile] skelebro 2016-12-19 05:12 am (UTC)(link)
[eyyyyy see? You're good people, Matt. You can laugh at a bad joke.]

Heh. You set it up for me, not gonna lie. I had to go for it.
devilsavocado: (smirk; good one)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2016-12-19 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
I'll take it over the monsters going nuts outside, that's for sure.

[ Though, boy, he'd sure love to be out there punching some monsters. But awful jokes that remind him of his best friend are a close second. ]
skelebro: (tbh)

[personal profile] skelebro 2016-12-19 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, buddy, careful there. [His tone is pretty amiable, since it's clear that Matt's blind. Can't expect him to know things like that right away.]

You're talkin' to a monster right now.
devilsavocado: (Ky2OJkk)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2016-12-21 05:31 am (UTC)(link)
[ Even with super-senses, Matt wouldn't really expect a talking skeleton to call himself a "monster."

Then again, how many talking skeletons did Matt know before Papyrus? 0. Exactly 0.
]

Pardon?
skelebro: (that sounds fake but ok)

[personal profile] skelebro 2016-12-21 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
Monster. Skeleton, to be exact.

[He wiggles his phalanges indicatively. Listen to those bones rattle. Oooooo~]

Don't worry, I don't bite. My teeth don't even open.
devilsavocado: (se siento un poco sacrilegioso)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2016-12-21 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
A skeleton? That.... explains a lot, actually.

[ There's really no hiding the fact that Sans does not breathe and sounds like rattling bones. Matt is mostly relieved that he can finally let his confusion show. ]

How does that make you a monster, though?
skelebro: (you're still smiling)

[personal profile] skelebro 2016-12-21 06:10 am (UTC)(link)
[Huh. That'd probably be the first time someone reacts like that to that little bombshell. Granted, he's also the first guy who's had to put it together with other clues.

Either way, Matt's a bit of a novelty.]


We got all sorts of monsters back home. All of 'em are made of magic and the like.

Skeletons're just another sort.
devilsavocado: (del hijo y del espíritu santo)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2016-12-21 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
[ It's almost like he has super senses and has had a while to get used to your horrifying presence, Sans. ]

Oh.

[ Give him a minute. There's gotta be some equivalent to this in his world. Is it like being an alien? Maybe an alien creature?

He's no Chitauri, but that's probably a good thing. Matt tilts his head slightly. Nothing about Sans feels particularly spacey, but aliens it is. Yep, Sans is a skeleton alien. Makes sense.
]

So are the monsters in your world more like you, or more like the ones outside?
skelebro: (know what they say about hindsight)

[personal profile] skelebro 2016-12-21 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
Y'mean are we liable to munch your face off? Nah. We are a proudly face-munching free.

[Probably a better way to put that. P-somethin'. P-value? Pacifist? Pass-a-fist through the MERCY button? Somethin' like that or another.]

Not the same kinda monsters as the ones hangin' around here, happy to say.
devilsavocado: (smirk; some would say that)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2016-12-21 07:22 am (UTC)(link)
[ Well, that's a relief. Matt sighs. He couldn't really tell if he should worry about the helpful skeleton dude, but knowing that, he can rest a little easier. ]

Sounds like you wouldn't be able to do much munching at all-- did you say your teeth don't open?

[ There was a joke in there somewhere, Matt, and you totally missed it. ]

You don't... I mean, is it offensive to call the ones outside monsters too? You're giving me a lot of new terminology here.
skelebro: (chinhands)

[personal profile] skelebro 2016-12-21 08:00 am (UTC)(link)
Mostly I just call 'em pricks.

[He does nothing of the sort, but the comedic value there was too big a chance to pass up.]

Probably best if you make the distinction. Otherwise you got people thinkin' that zombies and skeletons are the same beast.

[Yeah, not a fun time.]
