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.

[He's so kind. Despite the situation, or perhaps in spite of it, she smiles. His concern is appreciated and she's grateful for it. Reaching out she gently clasps his hands, holding them together.]

Thank you so much, Victor. [It's nice to hear him, though these circumstances are not at all ideal. When she pulls her hands away, a butterfly rests between his palms, the wings fluttering open and shut.]

I'm leaving this with you. I can help watch over this place, and if anything happens I'll come running. Is this common? I haven't been here long, but-- this is a mess.

[Victor looks wide eyed at the magical butterfly, blinking at it curiously. He has no clue what it could do or mean, if there's something he should do with it. He give Yuuki a withered look, but still nods in confirmation.]

What does it do? A, And no... not seen anything like tonight, yet. Watch out for yourself!

[sunflowering]

Don't worry, you don't have to do anything.

[The butterfly itself flutters up above him, circling over his head. It's nothing really complicated. At least she doesn't think so.]

It's part of me. Sort of like...another set of eyes? [Its part of her consciousness.] I'll be able to see if anything bad shows up here. Though I'm hoping we don't get any more strange surprises like... whatever these sand people are.

[poodlemom]

Don't do anything too dangerous! You're always welcome back here, don't hesitate to come back, I'll wait at the door for you, all night if you need. [Victor is very insistent! He couldn't fight or chase down monsters, not without being a complete fool for it, but he could offer a safe place to hide. That's... something, at least.]

Ganbatte!
