Intro Log: Welcome to the Snave (snake cave)

Who: New arrivals and everyone else!
What: The intro log for March
Where: The colosseum and all around the city.
When: March 10th-15th
Warnings: Snakes! Snakes! It's a snake!


Good morning, new arrivals! Or, well, it's probably morning. The sun is up, anyway. Okay - not the sun, but that ball of light at the top of the cave that functions as the sun, anyway. Whatever. The point is you've woken to find yourself on the floor of Hadriel's colosseum. You may be wondering where you are and what you're doing here, but what you should be wondering is how fast you need to run to get away from a three-headed snake.

You're not the only one who just woke up. Also to be found in the arena, angry and confused, are Runespoors - large three-headed snakes. Only one of the heads is venomous, but all of them are perfectly willing to take a bite out of you if you get too close - or if you annoy it. If you're lucky, an attacking Runespoor may distract itself via infighting between the three heads, giving you time to run. If not, well, let's just hope you can fight off all three heads at once!

But that's not the only thing you might find. Also scattered around the colosseum floor are what look like tasty snacks. Popsicles, cheese, even toast! Unfortunately, if you get hungry and take a bite, you will quickly discover that each and every one of these is actually soap. So that's great. Maybe the Door thinks everyone needs to shower more? You can also find a few that actually look like soap, and if you're really lucky, you might stumble across the rare and coveted 'pile of baby hands' soap.

With luck, you didn't get eaten by a snake or accidentally eat a piece of soap. Once you find your way out of the colosseum there's plenty of other distractions. Feel free to go explore the rest of the city! Find a house, a new monster, a project to help with, or simply scavenge for supplies. Good luck, and enjoy your stay in Hadriel!

[ Yeeeah, Gladio's just gonna have to take the hit to his ego and take a few steps back. Away from the tonberries, but also away from Ardyn. Hard to project that macho aura when you're shrinking away, isn't it?

He's still gonna try, of course.
]

Hell no, I'm getting out of here. Same as Noct and Prompto. [ How they're getting out is an entirely different question. One Gladio definitely doesn't have the answer to, but shhh. ] But if getting out of here means working with you, you can keep dreaming. I know you're stuck here, same as the rest of us.

[Ardyn will wait until the very last minute before he steps away from the tonberry himself, just for the sake of dramatics. As much as the blasted thing couldn't kill him no matter how hard it tried, he still didn't particularly want to be stabbed with a kitchen knife in front of Gladio.

And so he moves closer to the man, seemingly for theatrical purposes, when half of it is necessity.]


What if the only way to leave required for us to work together? [He lets out a quiet laugh at that, which seems to reverberate around them. What a laughable, novel sort of idea.] Even then, you'd be so stubborn?

ok last week was trip + wondercon hell but I should be back now...

[ There's just something about Ardyn that's distinctly annoying to Gladio. From the way he moves to the way he talks, even watching him step out of a Tonberry's way makes Gladio want to grind his teeth together. ]

Then we'd find another way.

[ He says the words almost like a growl. Stubbornness, after all, is one of Gladio's strongest features. ]

ain't no thang! also laughing as they both quietly inch away from the tonberry

If only it were so convenient for you, Gladiolus. [It's as if Ardyn himself were born to be frustrating, in how utterly patronizing he sounds.] But by all means, you're welcome to try.

[But like hell if you guys are going home without him >:[ ]

In the meantime-

[And here comes the tonberry, "rushing" (read: waddling quickly) forward, knife gleaming, targeting Gladio -- because of course it is.]

-you've other things to worry about.

they know who the real boss in ffxv is

[ Oh, Gladio is sure Ardyn was born to be a thorn in his side, there's no doubt about that. ]

Yeah, just watch me, asshole--

[ Ah yes, of course the moment Gladio turns toward Ardyn, fully, a knife-wielding evil green lalafell comes at him. ]

Shit! [ Okay, now's a good time to pull up his shield and try to dodge. Gladio's not the best at that, but at least his shield seems to be holding. For now. ]
