welcome to mayfield: day 3

[mayfield_mods]

[Those who wake up in the town on the third day will soon notice that something's definitely off. The cracks in the sky are appearing more frequently and lasting for minutes at a time, and there's a strange white fog drifting over the clouds.

For those who've just arrived, welcome to our new little town! We're sure you're glad to see your missing friends again; nothing to worry about here, they've just been too busy enjoying the upgraded carnival to go back home. Any bleeding limbs or serious wounds you may spot are obviously just a sign of how much fun they've been having.]

OOC: If your character damages or affects the carnival or town in a noticeable and normally permanent way, please comment here.

I can find ways to survive that don't cause me to crawl along the ground and act as beasts do. I am not surprised if you wish to carry yourself that way, but don't expect me to mimic it.

[Speaking of Magus pride, it's now coming out in full bloom. What's even worse is that Tokiomi just very well might end up dying for his so-called 'pride.' In this situation, staying 'classy' just might not be the best idea.]

FUNHOUSE

[brokiomi]

[Remember that confident smirk that's always on Tokiomi's face? Now it's twisted into a grimace. Much more of an annoyed grimace, and the look in his eyes is reflecting his inner irritation.]

You hold a similarity with Kariya in that you believe you have any right to speak so freely of the Tohsaka family. Had you been born, raised and bred as a Tohsaka, perhaps you might understand just how our children are raised. Have you spoken to Rin or Sakura themselves? I am not saying my death will benefit them in any way, but if it is inevitable, Rin has adopted the helm of the Tohsaka family and will be able to take care of her sister accordingly. I have no intentions of being harmed or dying here, and you would do well to realize that the "burden" of protecting either myself or my daughters is not something you have any right in shouldering.

[waiting_for_the_worms]

This might be a good thing.

[waiting_for_the_worms]

More than I can say for you. What happened?

[brokiomi]

...So it is safe to infer that we are trapped in this carnival for the time being. ...That is troublesome.

This was more my derp considering I know the series. orz

[brokiomi]

[Instead of the interest in his eyes coming from what Crona is, let's just have it at how wary she's being in a much more "lol normal humans" sort of way. Oblivious, thy name is now Tokiomi.]

Are you so easily frightened?

[waiting_for_the_worms]

Fine, then. Don't say I didn't warn you. I'll do what I can to survive, and make sure to tell Rin and Sakura that dying for your worthless pride was more important to you than living on for the hope of returning to them.

[captainofthe10th]

Visited a very dangerous house. Lost a leg. It was a boring story anyway.

[waiting_for_the_worms]

The entire leg? How are you even still walking around?

[captainofthe10th]

I'm not. I'm crawling. Or limping on a chainsword. [ He gestures towards the trail of crushed wood and scuff marks he left as he dragged himself to the church. ]

[queen_of_swords]

You dig a hole, and put a tray of sorts in there. Then put a tarp over it and secure the tarp and put a rock on the tarp over the tray. It would be like drinking the dew off of plants.

I suppose it might be like drinking the ground water, but there is a chance it's safer.

[voiceofauthority]

[Jenny pauses and wraps the rope around Henry before doing the same to herself. She still keeps her arm around him though, just in case. As she's wrapping it around Henry she tells him to pull out his gun just in case. She's pretty sure she can take out anything that's in here, but she wants everyone prepared just in case.

Once they're all tied in she keeps pushing forward, straining to hear.]

[then_there_were_none]

[The smaller vampire starts to thrash again when she's picked up--only to realize it's her sister, not the...other thing. She calms down, though her wings drag a bit uselessly now and the cut's still oozing blood.

When she speaks, her voice is small and raspy.]

Why does breathing...hurt so much, Remi?

[Air didn't hurt, though. That could stay.]

[captainofthe10th]

[ And that is when a huge, heavy shadow passes over them both. An armored being, dragging a seemingly useless left leg behind it, using a huge, spiked sword as a sort of crutch in one hand whilst he holds a tremendous, boxy cannon in the other, looks down at them. ] Remilia and Flandre, yes? My name is Garviel Loken. Meiling has sent me to find and protect you.

[waiting_for_the_worms]

I hope you're planning to recover for a while before you go out again like that.

Re: FUNHOUSE

[answerer_sword]

[She takes a while to answer because she is too busy dry heaving.]

Is that your final answer, Tokiomi. Very well, I cannot argue with your assessment of your daughters. After all, I am not their parent or guardian. But I will still protect and provide for you best I can. I consider you my ally, and even if you still have your powers, you are probably unused to situations like these.

[badladyscramble]

Oh, Flandre... [Remilia's worries were overtaken though at the booming voice behind them, and she immediately springs up again, jumping back away from the figure with a hiss.]

Meiling? How?

[roadrolling]

[outside, there's the sound of someone very heavy running very fast, toward the house

his voice is just coming into earshot]

♪ Rin? Rin!!

[atailoftwoworlds]

Oh man....anything else that I need to be warned about here?

Re: CHURCH

[atailoftwoworlds]

Hey, Crowe! [And here's your housemate running towards you and then kneeling down, looking very worried.] Geez, how long have you been here? You look like hell.

[vytis]

[Lithuania jerks back on instinct, though he doesn't have much room to move given he's still got Latvia and would rather not have to deal with being partially responsible for ripping Latvia's leg off. His arm shoots up to protect his face--he'd rather have that clawed up, honestly.]

Cut those arms off, Lenkija!

[Of course that would require Poland getting close enough to grab Lithuania's sword off him and then do the cutting, but Lithuania's kind of busy.]

[captainofthe10th]

The leg won't grow back, and without a cybernetic, I have little choice. My blood has already stopped flowing. I'm fit for war, though slowed and less effective in close quarters than I'd like. I still have my bolter, though.

[then_there_were_none]

[Flandre curls up with a raspy squeak when her sister moves so suddenly, only tentatively peeking her eyes open when she hears a familiar name.

Her voice is still small, and full of pauses.]

Meiling is...here?

[She doesn't recognize the shambling armored...thing. But it wasn't the other Thing from just before, so she uncurls just slightly.]

[ex_seventh238]

[hence the ring will help her out there...

tapping her pen idly on the notepad twice, she'll get on writing again, more time needed because she's got more to write.

I can do something about the injured and sleep-deprived. People have begun hunting the rats down for their meat and consuming that with no averse results so far. I suppose I could help with that later at night, we'll have to see. One can rest and recover at their pace in the Church, but one bite on the food here can cause immediate death. Unless you have a better idea for what might serve as a clearer warning to stay away, I'll remain here for the time being.

As for that derp priest... yes and no? Either way, it won't take her more than a few minutes to get to the church from here, so she's not too worried.]

[captainofthe10th]

No. That is why I have been sent to help you both. [ He pauses, obviously physically pained by whatever damaged his leg. ]

Come on, if you can stand.
