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.

work ate me :(

[if Angus is familiar with nothing else in Reims, he's familiar with the library. He leads Yuu down the sandpaths toward it and steps inside, wishing for the millionth time that casting Silence worked. He's not sure why it doesn't - unless it has something to do with the rule to keep quiet here - but he's determined to find out.

Eventually. For right now, they need to discover how to install lights! There's a table set up with a little paper sign resting on the edge that says Angus McDonald: boy detective on it. Weighing the table down are several stacks of books, and books fill the chairs around the table as well. Angus gestures for Yuu to sit and then hops up on the only empty chair, stretching up to grab a book from on top of the stack. It's a large red tome with a grid sphere on the cover and Encyclopedia Britannica etched on it in gold.]

I've found these books to be incredibly valuable sources of knowledge! They seem to be focused on the current world we're in, which is very different from my home world! Surely they have something about light fixtures in them if you'd like to help me look!

totally okay :D

[ He follows Angus without so much as a word, raising an eyebrow when they reach the library, blinking at the little sign on the table. Detective?

Shrugging his shoulders, Yuu took a look at all the books before just moving to sit down without any hesitation. This was quite the collection of books he'd amassed, so this kid really knew what the hell he was doing. It was almost enough to distract him from the text Angus was showing him on his device. ]

I can. Itd give us some idea of how to put em up. does it matter which book i pick up and look through?

[ After he'd 'said' that, Yuu leaned over and picked up a book so he could crack it open and start reading. There's definitely gotta be something helpful in here. ]
