welcome to mayfield: day 4



[This carnival seems to be getting less and less maintained by the day. Your nerves aren't the only thing fallen apart: what were previously holes in the sky have expanded to cracks. What parts of the sky that haven't fallen into that strange, warping nothingness are full of brown smog-like clouds.

The carnival itself has become filthy, with trash and grease spots littered everywhere. The walls of the tents, wooden stands, and houses seem to be slightly melted, for lack of a better term. The holes of corrupted nothingness aren't confined to the sky anymore: pockets of nothing litter the carnival, shifting tears in the fabric of reality that hurt your eyes to look at.

A faint buzzing noise fills the air, making it difficult to concentrate. If you listen long enough, it starts to sound like voices. For your own sake, it's probably best not to listen to what they have to say.

You're also not alone here anymore, for those of you operating under the assumption that you ever really were. If you've been missing the friendly drones of Mayfield, fear no more, because scattered throughout the carnival are a few drone families seeing the sights, riding the rides and playing the games. Curiously, unlike the drones back home, these ones don't seem to notice you at all, acting as if you're not even there.

Also curiously: their features are warped nearly beyond recognition. Some are missing limbs or facial features; others appear to have had those features scrambled by Picasso's paintbrush, with mouths on their scalps or teeth on their fingers. Still other drones appear to be fused together at the wrist, or waist, or face. None of them seem to be any more aware of their deformity than they are of you.

...and yet, somehow, you can't shake the feeling that when you're not looking at them, they're looking at you.

New here? That's alright; your missing friends have had plenty of time to get acquainted, and they'll be happy to show you around. Just watch your step, because some of these old rides need some maintenance...]


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

Oh.

[He smiles a little at that.]

I'm sure he's all right.
technologic: (❦ Can you tell me what was ever)

[personal profile] technologic 2012-07-07 09:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[She gives him a small smile back.] Hopefully. He's still a puppy, but he should be fine...

... Do you wanna meet him when we get back to Mayfield?

[personal profile] waiting_for_the_worms 2012-07-07 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure. That sounds nice.
technologic: (❦ Can you tell me what was ever)

[personal profile] technologic 2012-07-07 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[Her smile brightens a bit.] Okay! Though I should warn you that he really likes meeting new people and tends to drool on them.

[personal profile] waiting_for_the_worms 2012-07-08 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
[He laughs, smiling.]

A little drool is no problem.
technologic: (❦ Waking up at the start)

[personal profile] technologic 2012-07-08 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
[She laughs too and gives a nod.]

That's true. Though he's gotten pretty big already, so it might not just be a 'little'.

[personal profile] waiting_for_the_worms 2012-07-08 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
What kind of dog is he?
technologic: (❦ Who're waving goodbye)

[personal profile] technologic 2012-07-08 01:23 pm (UTC)(link)
The person at the pet store said that he is a St. Bernard.

[personal profile] waiting_for_the_worms 2012-07-08 02:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow, you weren't kidding, then! He must be pretty big.
technologic: (Default)

[personal profile] technologic 2012-07-08 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Ehe, yep! He's only a couple of months old, but he's already gotten big. Hopefully I'll have trained him enough so that he doesn't run people over when he's fully grown.
technologic: (❦ Who're waving goodbye)

[personal profile] technologic 2012-07-08 05:38 pm (UTC)(link)
It's been going okay... I've taught him to sit, shake his paw and roll over, and he knows not to jump up at people, though he still tends to do so when he's excited.

[personal profile] waiting_for_the_worms 2012-07-08 05:50 pm (UTC)(link)
He sounds like a pretty good dog.
technologic: (❦ Can you tell me what was ever)

[personal profile] technologic 2012-07-08 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
He is... And he's pretty good company for when I get sick of the drones.
technologic: (❦ Can you tell me what was ever)

[personal profile] technologic 2012-07-08 07:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[Her smile softens and she nods again.] ... That's the main reason why I got him, for company. It's hard to stay glum when you've got a puppy jumping on you.

[personal profile] waiting_for_the_worms 2012-07-09 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I can understand that. He sounds like a nice companion.
technologic: (❦ Can you tell me what was ever)

[personal profile] technologic 2012-07-09 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
Yep, he is. And I've always had a soft spot for big, fluffy dogs.

[personal profile] waiting_for_the_worms 2012-07-09 11:41 am (UTC)(link)
I can't wait to meet him.
technologic: (❦ Waking up at the start)

[personal profile] technologic 2012-07-09 01:45 pm (UTC)(link)
And he would probably like you a lot.

[personal profile] waiting_for_the_worms 2012-07-09 02:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, one more thing to look forward to, then.
technologic: (❦ Can you tell me what was ever)

[personal profile] technologic 2012-07-09 03:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Ehe, I'm glad you're looking forward to it!
