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.

[Finn had been wandering around in a bit of a daze ever since the storm, it left him wondering if maybe he'd stayed out in the rain without proper clothing too long. Really, he didn't think he'd stayed out there that long and he'd managed to get dry again quickly. He'd only somewhat noticed that the feeling alleveated when he was around the pilot or passed by a location the other was in.

So this time when he passes by and he gets grabbed, Finn feels like he's jerked out of the daze. He blinks for a few moments and lifts his head to meet Poe's gaze.

He almost starts talking. Almost. Finn fumbles for his device.]

What's up, man?

[ They all could have been out in the rain for too long. The sand had gotten everywhere. Poe brushed away the red dust from the normal dust and it was weird. The broom would brush away the red dust but not the sand under it. Everything was only making him more confused.

He looks at Finn with a small smile as it seemed he didn't interrupt him. Poe wasn't sure why he felt more at ease with being around him. Maybe it had been the series of events that happened the day before. ]

Are you doing anything?

[Yeah, most of Finn's day had been trying to separate it all, as well as make sure the paths were fixed so that people could get around properly.

Nothing to interrupt, really, guy was just walking for the sake of walking. He doesn't have much of anything to do for a change and it's...odd. At home they always had something to do, the inactivity is getting to him.]

Nah, I was just walking.

[ Poe gives a smile at that at least he wasn't interrupting anything important. Being near Finn was helping with whatever feeling he had going on. It's still a bit strange in a way but all he could think was that he wanted his company. Even if it was easy to sought out.

The inactivity still gets at Poe when he tries to stay still. It's somewhat maddening since he's used to being in constant motion. ]

Would you like to catch up some? Or just talk in general?

[ The words look stupid at first but he can't help but show them to Finn anyway. ]

[Same for Finn. The itch that had been unsettling him under his skin was easing.]

Yeah, I'd like that. Don't think we've talked much about home except for how we both got off Jakku.

[ He turns going back into his room so that they could have privacy. Nothing against Finn's makeshift room. It's probably not all that bad either. Poe sits down on the edge of the bed. Finn can choose to sit where ever wanted. ]

Home, huh? Yavin 4 is where I grew up. A moon planet from the system Yavin. I'm not sure how much you know about the battles that took place there over Yavin. [ How much history does Finn know about the first Death Star and it's destruction? And who actually destroyed it. ]

[He hesitates a moment and then sits on the floor? Unless Poe has a chair that won't scrape on the floor as he sits. It seems so weird to just...sit here and type into their devices, looking only at the other when they're not typing.]

The battles, yeah, but not so much about the planets or the life that was on them. They were rather straight to the point with lessons they gave us.

[ The chair that's with the desk is on top of curtains or extra blankets that are worn down. It's pretty safe to move the chair around if needed. The bed is big enough for Finn to come sit on if he gets uncomfortable. Poe looks at him with a small smile. The devices never truly made things personal but at least they could still communicate while being in a room. As weird as it was. ]

Yavin has a lot of moons, some that can inhabit human life. I'm not sure about all life on each of the ones that can. On Yavin 4 is seemed to only be my parents and I. A quiet life in peace. At night the forest seemed to be really alive with how much noise it brought. I was reckless back then too. Probably drove my father crazy.

[Give him time and he might sit on the bed, but for now he's comfortable where he is on the chair.]

In all your restlessness you never explored the moon enough to see if there was anyone else there? [A grin.] I find that hard to believe.

I never encountered anyone else when I did fly around. Other times I was flying above the surface of the planet. I still didn't encounter anyone.
