Event Log: Dead Ringers

[hadrielmods]

Who: Everyone participating in the event!
What: The event log for the Dead Ringers event!
Where: All around the city
When: January 16th-January 25th
Warnings: Evil doubles, so we can assume manipulation, violence, murder, and maybe some nasty words

Everything seems normal on the morning of the 16th - actually, everything seems normal about the city for the entirety of this event. Nothing is strange, nothing is obviously wrong. Well, except that the population has mysteriously doubled, and the new residents each look exactly like one of the old residents. So weird! Definitely not ominous at all.

At least until your new double gets down to business. After all, their only goal is to ruin your life, and that can take any form. Smashing your favorite coffee cup? Telling your worst enemy they're right? Kissing someone else in front of your girlfriend? Brutally murdering you and then hiding your body in a closet so they can more effectively destroy your life? The possibilities are truly endless, and the only way to protect yourself is to kill your double first. They're not really open to negotiation, after all - but they sure might pretend to be in order to trick you.

So watch your back, and try to make sure that really is your best friend and not an evil clone masquerading as them. Boy, that would be awkward. If you can stick it out until January 25th, good for you! But if you didn't manage to and your double survives until the end - well, just as a final 'fuck you', there's a chance you'll come back to life and remember every awful thing your double did. Hey, at least that'll make it easier to fix, right?

How quickly do you want to do it?

( Because jumping right in is fun, or dragging it out. Although- )

We should take our time - make them feel betrayed.

( Like they were )

[wendigoner]

You're right. ... ] I would've hoped the guilt would get to them by now, but having us around might have made them feel better.

[ And they don't deserve to feel better. Not at all. ]

They should have to face everything we did.

[edibles]

They should face worse if they've managed to feel better.

( Because god, what bullshit that was, that having the twins around made them feel better instead of worse each day? )

Death is too good.

[ Death is too good. Beth hadn't deserved to die, but she'd been killed right away. Hannah -

The copy is stone-faced, unreadable. ]

Maybe we can find our own cliff. [ She states darkly. ] See how they land.

[edibles]

I bet there'd be a big one here.

( They're in murder cave, it wouldn't be difficult )

It'd work.

( Simple and no mess. Well, no mess on them -- falling would be plenty messy )

[wendigoner]

If not, we can improvise. Use the top of one of the spires, or the lake.

[ She has no qualms with how they do it, if it inspires fear. ]

Ready?
