MOD LOG #3



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.

[ Logan does follow in as told, but he certainly doesn't intend on staying too long. He shakes himself, drops of red water flying in all directions, and then takes a good look around the shed as his claws retract back into his body.

He sees a table, which he's quick to move towards and move from its place leaning against the wall towards the centre of the room. ]


You a doctor? [ Another table. How many tables will the doctor need? Jesus, Logan doesn't know. ] How good are you at it?

[ Glancing around, Adrien grabbed some pieces of what looked like gardening equipment and began to set up a makeshift block to the door. A nice heavy dresser would have been ideal, but the spades and hoes should hamper the knob enough to at least give them a warning if anyone tries to get through. ]

If you want bedside manner and coddling, I'm rubbish. [ He answered, direct and to the point as he set the last tool and then turned to take in what Logan was doing with the table. ] However, keeping people alive has become something of a specialty.

[ As the second table starts being dragged, Adrien shifts and points to in front of the door. ]

Might as well make the most of what we've got. It can play doorstop as well.

[ "Doorstop" has Logan looking down at the table, and then up at the man again. ]

I'm going back out there.

[ It takes up residence beside the other table. That should keep people from falling for sure, right? Looking around for something akin to cushioning, he finds bags filled with -- what, sand? ]

If I took hurt people in here, would you help them?
prorenataa: dnt (oh geeze)

[personal profile] prorenataa 2018-03-30 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe I want to go back out and have fun. [ Adrien huffed, looking genuinely put out but this rather unfair set up.

But after a brief consideration, he sighed and glanced around at the makeshift triage area. ]


If you can find people to bring here, I can help them. But I'm not cooling my heels here indefinitely. There are beings out there that need to be dead and I'm very good at that also.

[personal profile] danzan 2018-03-31 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, well, if I'm not back in ten minutes, you can leave if you want to.

[ But based on what Logan's seen outside -- and how many people he'd taken to shelter not knowing whether they'd be taken care of or not -- he's sure he'll be back here in at most seven.

He's moving some of the sandbags to use as cushioning on the floor. Things for elevation, too, if that's necessary. Each movement is methodical and quick; in Logan's one-track mind, he's got to finish this before he goes back out. ]


I owe you one. [ Looking up, he meets the man's gaze. ] Shit, I owe you fifty. If you survive this, find me after and I'll do whatever the hell you want.

My name's Logan.
prorenataa: (prickly hedgie)

Adrien. [ He's gotten so much better at this whole name situation. ] Dr. Adrien Arbuckal, but for fuck's sake please just ... Adrien.

[ It took him a moment to pick up on what Logan was doing, but then he moved forward to pitch in and help. ]

Situation like this, keeping people in one piece is not something anyone owes anyone for. Now, make me do this kind of shit when things aren't trying to kill us? Then, you'll owe me.

i think this is an OK place to end? y/n to logan bringing raven in? (i'll ask her player too!)

[personal profile] danzan 2018-04-01 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
[ He can't help it. That makes him laugh, inasmuch as he's capable of laughing as he moves the last table over now that Adrien's gone ahead and taken care of accommodations. ]

Trust me, I'm only like this when there're fucking murderers on the loose.

[ Logan looks over the interior of the shed, figuring that maybe he's done for now. ]

Okay. [ He nods, glancing Adrien's way. ] I'm going back out. You'll know it's me when you hear someone knocking out [ a brief pause, and he says the first thing to come to mind ] Twinkle Twinkle, Little Star.

[ A small smile. ] Thanks for this, Adrien.

[ Then Logan's running back into the storm. ]
prorenataa: (neck grab)

Looks good to me! Y to bringing Raven in!

[personal profile] prorenataa 2018-04-01 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
[ Twinkle Twinkle, Little Star??

At least the man has a sense of humor. In a manner of speaking. ]


Go, kill dust creatures and bring me anyone who needs patched up. [ He really doesn't do well with gratitude, even after two hundred plus years, that is one area where he still gets awkward. ]
