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

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.

Why is it that this is so important to people? Do we need connections?
no subject
I think it's because no one wants to be lonely. The more connections we make, the stronger we are. Because you might be strong on your own but having someone to fight alongside - to protect and return are what makes us the strongest people we can possibly be.
My friends are my strength. When I'm with them, I'm the very best version of myself. Even when we're apart, I know our hearts are connected. That somewhere out there - they're thinking of me, just like I'm thinking of them and I don't feel so alone anymore.

[And that was why Ikari-kun ultimately crumbled. He was a wreck with no real support.]
no subject
It's something I've always believed and even though none of my other friends are here, I know I'm not alone. Plus I've made some news ones already.
[Maybe they aren't as close as Sora is with other people because there's so much he's holding back on but he'd die for every single one of them.]

...
How do you decide when someone is a friend?
no subject
[A soft laugh and he ruffles the back of his hair.]
That's different for everyone. It's easy for some people, like me. Basically, it's when you reach the point where you'd trust them with important stuff. When you like talking to them or would hang out with them just for fun.
Two people don't have to become friends at the same time. Like I consider you a friend but you might not feel that way.
no subject
Why do you think of me as a friend? Do you enjoy spending time with me?
no subject
Because we talk about things I don't usually with other people and it's interesting. It makes me want to get to know you better.
no subject
[She looked a little confused and flustered, though it slipped away quickly enough. People taking active interests in her well being, or as a person were not exactly common place. Especially apparently well-adjusted people. Ikari-kun had, himself, been fairly close to alone all the time much of his life as well.]
no subject
[If he's surprised to hear that someone who appears to be his age has a job, it doesn't show. Technically Sora had a "job" at age fourteen.]

It is different, yes. I am willing, if asked, though the form of fighting I was tasked with is not possible here. I am a pilot, not infantry.
[And they definitely didn't have giant robots around here.]
no subject
A pilot? Like in a ship?
[He hasn't heard of giant fighting robots before.]
no subject
I may answer you later. We will see.

[Don't worry. She'd probably get around to telling eventually. It was just a little soon for now.]
