MOD LOG #2



MOD LOG #2

Now we're back to the beginning
Content Warnings: Death, apocalypse, a shit storm generally, pigeon death
Themes: Survival, plot

As noted on the ooc plotting post, this prompt is in the form of a Network Post via the native who runs the Bulletin Board. The post can be found here. Out of the five separate teams, all groups decided to share the footage they found. On the morning of the first, the footage will go live as a compilation in order of oldest to newest. Character's devices will update at the same time. The weather is overcast and sullen, befitting the news, and characters can talk to each other on the network post or play out their reactions on the log here.

Will you stay or will you go
Content Warnings: NONE
Themes: Survival, plot

On the morning of the second, the locals will call a meeting at town hall. All soundproofing and partnering rules apply - find a person and help soundproof the area. This is so that everyone can speak during the meeting. The found footage has unsettled the natives and after the community takes a seat, Constance will share some interesting backstory. As one of the oldest members of the community, Constance wasn't alive when the Sound Eaters first came but she heard stories from her great grandmother. The 'tales' have taken twists and turns over time, leaving the survivors with a watered down version of events that amounts to - they came and everyone had to be quiet.

An elderly native will come forward and admit that they arrived through the Reset Room when they were a teenager and have been living there ever since. They tried to get home and they could never find away. Most interestingly, to those that listen closely to his story, is that he came with a sibling who was killed by a Sound Eater and wasn't Reset. Yet, he's known people to come through the Reset Room, die, and come back. Piping up from the background, another local mentions that those born in the world they're in now (natives) aren't reset when they die. It's not something they have any real understanding of. Arrivals tend to disappear at random times, stay in the community, or leave; those that choose to depart and explore the world never make it very far. Whether this is from Sound Eaters alone or someone or something else, the natives don't know. It's obvious they are frightened and don't go beyond what they know is safe.

The natives will now ask the characters if they will stay as permanent members of the community. If they choose to, they will be given the option to take on an apartment that is completely soundproofed, furnished, and will be accepted completely by the natives. This can open up doors for characters to become important parts of the community. No character has to agree to become permanent members. If a character chooses not to, the arrangement they're in will stay the same until a few months from now when the natives ask again. Arrivals are given the chance to talk to one another so that they can decide and digest the new information. There is also a comment below to ask the natives questions 'in front of' the entire community.

ooc: Players have until apps close this upcoming round to comment to the housing page saying that their character chose to be permanent members and are taking an apartment. The apartment is located closer to the Reset Room and are either one or two bedrooms; please note which one your character is taking.

Therefore I lie with her
Content Warnings: NONE
Themes: Survival, plot

The native Constance, who hands out the devices, has decided to step back from a leadership role and has submitted the names of those that she believes could lead the group better than she has. Please vote responsibly. During dinner, a group meal prepared and served in the town hall, slips of paper will be passed around with a pencil for everyone to vote. They will be anonymous unless the person chooses to share out loud who they voted for. There won't be much time for campaigning, but candidates are allowed to do so if they'd like - either handwaved or through their own posts/top-levels.

THE CANDIDATES:

- Frank Castle
- Erik Lehnsherr
- Teddy Upsilon
- Richie Tozier
- Akira Kurusu
- Merlan O'Keefe

OOC
From your mods:

Please be mindful of content - if something triggery comes up or if it goes up a rating to say, something sexy, mark your threads in the subject line. We're very flexible and allow any material; we just want our players to be respectful of each other. If you have questions, pp the mod account, use the faq or comment to the appropriate post below. Have fun! The OOC Plotting Post.

Always. [Perhaps she isn't always an unfailingly agreeable student, but she is eager. She always wants to know more. Anything to make her better.[

Then give me your device for a moment.

[ He extends a hand to her. ]

[Arya looks dubious about what it is he plans to do with it. But she knows how to communicate with the hand signals, so if he's planning to do something to it, she'll get by alright.

Reaching into a pouch just beside her dagger, she fishes out her device and sets it in his open palm.]

[ He locates the contacts section, scrolling until he stops over a username. He sends himself a message from her device: she will now have his contact details and he hers.

He hands it back to her, ]
I'm called Kylo Ren.

[Now she feels a bit silly thinking he might destroy it as some first lesson not to trust anyone. But perhaps Arya is always expecting the worst, so when it doesn't happen she can be surprised and when it does happen not terribly upset. Pain and loss is the expected outcome of all things in Arya's mind anymore.

Taking the device back, she gives him a small nod back in greeting. So he's not Azor Ahai, or at least that's not the name he's going by. But she's not ready to disregard the idea altogether.]
This one is called Arya Stark.

[ It's a curious introduction but far from the strangest he's been given.

Another long pull on his water, considering. ]


I won't go easy on you, Arya Stark.

[ It's part a threat and part a promise. The styles he favored demanded much and while he didn't doubt Arya's determination, didn't doubt her potential as a student, he felt the need to say as much. ]
list_maker: (which way?)

[personal profile] list_maker 2018-03-10 05:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[Arya only introduced herself that way as a joke. A jest that only she understands.] I would be upset if you did.

[She's sure she can take what he throws at her. The Faceless Men's training regimen had taken her to the brink, they'd beat her, blinded her, tested her mind to the point of exhaustion. Whatever he means to do, she's ready for it. Anything to make her better.]
