MOD LOG #3


Arriving in style
Content Warnings: Fighting, death, violence
Themes: Survival, plot

It's early in the day when it happens. The red dust that seems to be everywhere sweeps through the city streets, mixing with the steady patter of rain and making it hard to see and breathe. All red and leaving the taste of copper if inhaled, what could have been an easy day without any trouble quickly becomes anything but. While those in the community are heading for cover or finding ways to continue on through it, the new arrivals begin waking up in different cities all over the world. There won't be anyone to greet them, and leaving the room through the door is their choice - after doing so, they'll immediately step out into the city they were assigned. The streets are empty, houses abandoned, everything crumbling and in ruins. There will be signs noting their location, which they'll catch a glimpse of before a sharp push forward causes darkness to engulf them.

Waking up for the second time, in Reims but not in the Reset Room, they'll come to inside the red dust as it whips through the streets of the community. They won't be alone for long. Another person will be waking up beside them, and after a few moments of disorientation, try to attack. They might have weapons or use their hands, and they will not stop until they've taken a fatal blow. Their blood is dust, and they, along with their weapons, disintegrate after they've died. Can you stop them on your own? Will someone come to your aid?

The Sight of Lightning
Content Warnings: Poison, sex
Themes: Survival, plot

The day after the storm, the same red dust will find its way through Reims and come into contact with every person. Since the dust is everywhere, some might not notice that it's floating through the community and know that something is off. The effects don't begin until night fall, where everyone will feel the desire to seek out companionship of many different kinds. Though it is not always the case, the people that saw each other in color will "want" to be with that person more strongly than they might already, and will be more likely to confess or do something about it. Some might feel an intense need to be around another person, though not necessarily sexually - almost as if they need that person around them to be happy or content. For some, it might be a desire that can only be fulfilled by more than one person.

The effects wear off the next time the person gets wet. This can be a splash of water across the face or fully submerged. Or even drinking something.

[She is quite capable of catching it and does, gripping the blade with a practiced ease. There's a hesitation though before she makes her move. There's so many people in this dust, what if she kills the wrong person? They don't feel like demons to her these dust things, so it's setting her off balance. Enough that the attacker punches her across the face. But Faith only stumbles back a step from blow.

Faith grits her teeth. A new resolve sets in and she follows up the punch with one of her own with a free hand and then slices it across the throat. Dust spills out and then it's gone.]
I know the way out! [She tells him and peers at Steve through the dust. She manages a smirk then to keep her nerve about slicing a guys throat. It helps that it dusted like a vampire might. And then she'll add in a corny yet true line.] Come with me if you want to live.

[ Despite the fact that she catches the knife like he expects her to, when she lets in the hit Steve wonders if he was wrong to throw it to her. He poises to intervene as she stumbles, but it hardly moves her otherwise, and whatever the cause of her hesitation it's seemingly gone by the time the dust at her feet starts to turn to mud.

The reference isn't lost on him, but Steve only shakes his head.
] There might be more people caught in this!

[She frowns giving him a once over. Faith had intended to take him out of the storm and then jump right back into the fray. But he does seem to be able to handle himself...]

Come on, then! Help me find them and we'll get them out!

I got your back! [ Despite having no apparent weapons on his person, but it doesn't seem to concern him. ] What's your name?

[ It's the most pertinent information at the moment. Everything else can come later; all he needs to know for now is her willingness to stay out in this, and what to call her if he's gonna warn her of anything. ]
rockypath: (sorry)

[personal profile] rockypath 2018-04-05 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
Faith! [She calls back in the storm, barely able to hear him as the wind picks up.] Yours?!

[Ducking she barely misses a knife getting thrown at her head before a woman leaping out at her from the dust stinging her eyes. Dammit. Grabbing her by the shirt, the Slayer rolls to the ground and then tosses them over her head. They tumble to the ground some distance away before Faith hops back up. She can here cries in the distance. Someone needs their help!]

[ Steve hears them. He's already running for the fallen knife and after swiping his fingers through the muddy ground for it makes an unerring throw across the distance to the woman's chest. Just like the other two, she bleeds dust for the brief moments before the rest of her crumbles into the same, taking the knife with her. Looking around, Steve spots a metal street sign nailed to a pole, runs over to reach up and pull it off with one good yank. He turns back to Faith. ]

Steve! Let's go!

[ He's already heading in the direction of the cries, sign held incongruously in hand. ]

[Faith is following after him. He's quick on his feet but she is too, luckily, so they get to the screaming voices soon enough. They'll help whomever is in need of it. And there are a lot of people in this mess that need it too. Time to be heroes.]


[[ooc: I'm thinking fade on this with them battling the big bads and then they can meet up again down the line in the next event or plot? or however it shakes out. But I do want to do more with Steve. ]]
