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.

HELLA

[lowkeycrazy]

[The touch. The words. Much of what happened he could dismiss as the effects of the dust. Not this. For a brief moment, he's caught staring in open surprise and wonder...

But his incredulity is quickly overriden by empathy, and his gaze softens at the redhead. He.. knows exactly how he feels, and it prompts him to move forward, giving the other teen a gentle headbutt. His lips move soundlessly.

I'm sorry.

But his eyes widen when the touch comes to his cheek, and his gaze immediately flicks over to the other boy. He's caught for a moment, breath wavering, slightly unsteady at that thumb so gently carressing his skin, and when he feels it start to move away, there's a moment of— panic?

His hand flies up in a quick hurry to arrest Akira's and press it to his cheek again. He blushes... rather darkly at the realization of what he did, and closes his eyes to hide the conflict. These fleeting moments of affection are too cruel. At least now, while they're like this, let it happen. Let them be warm and affectionate without worry for the consequences.

Please...

Even the hand on Kurama's arm is pressing just a bit, asking him to be as close as possible. At least for a few moments, they can lie here and pretend that everything's not as fucked up as it really is. That all of them aren't miles away from the people they love, whether literally or figuratively.]

[Kurama tries to pull himself back together, pull back the ground he gave up to the dust, but he fails. He only barely manages to keep from sinking even deeper into it, his breathing hitching and unsteady as he has to remember to keep doing it at all.

They'll notice if he stops breathing. He doesn't want to have that conversation right now. His fingers are just as unsteady on the device. He's managing to hold even against the dust but his grip on his own emotions is shattered.]

i'm sorry

it hurts but you two arent'

I shouldnt talk to yo u about this? i know you asked but i dont want you to feel wrong that you're you and not them

[He manages to slip the device somewhere safe before melting entirely under the pressure of Goro's hand, letting himself, letting both of them, have that requested closeness. Kurama very nearly curls around the other boys as best he can, struggling to pull his composure back into place.]
