day 5

[mayfield_mods]

[The fifth day doesn't dawn at all. In fact, the sky simply isn't there anymore; the only thing visible if you look up is pure black nothing. Most of the carnival itself is no longer visible, having been blanketed by thick white fog; any attempt to enter said fog will result in your body rapidly disintegrating. The street at least still seems to be intact, but with no way out and the fog slowly creeping in, who knows how long that'll last?

Luckily, it seems like the cavalry has finally arrived.]

(OOC: This marks the last day of the event! Anyone who has won a prize from Mayfield's carnival will be able to access both Mayfield and this area through the funhouse, and will be able to take one person with them on each trip they make. If your character is not rescued by the end of the day, they will be disintegrated by the fog and will wake up the next morning in Mayfield with the standard revival effects. You are free to comment in this post regardless of whether your character signed up for the event.)

(Well shit, looks like he can go back and forth now...whatever; time for Dante to play hero.)

Yo! You wanna get the hell outta here?! Then come with me!

There's a way out?!

[Well, it's a good thing he decided to check back with that funhouse]

Where is it?

Re: FUNHOUSE

[strawberryredgrave]

(A very good thing indeed.)

The funhouse. It's letting a few people go back and forth; turns out I'm one of 'em, and I'm pretty sure you don't wanna stick around, do you?

[Sorry, Dante, you get to deal with this willowy child standing near the funhouse. The kid nearly jumps a foot in the air when Dante shouts, spinning around to see what's going on.

Crona stares blankly for a long moment before finally speaking quietly.]

Are you real?

[strawberryredgrave]

(Eh, he's seen people look a lot worse before, so this doesn't bother him much.)

Damn right I am. Funky shit's letting some people go back and forth, so I'm pretty sure this party lets you bring a +1. You don't have any other plans here, right?

[42_passes]

I don't wanna stay here...I don't want to be here...

[Boy that kid looks like collapsing is very imminent.]

[strawberryredgrave]

(Damn...it was one thing to see adults this messed up, but a kid...? That's just not right.)

Good. Because I'm getting you the hell out of here. Mayfield sucks, but at least it's not falling apart yet. Come on.

(And Dante will begin leading Crona through the funhouse and back into Mayfield.)

[42_passes]

Ah...

[Crona's...pretty submissive, so the kid will just be lead easily. If told to do something, Crona's just going to do it.]

Why are you...helping me?

[strawberryredgrave]

Because this place sucks and you'll probably get killed if you stay here. Dying pointlessly won't do you any good, kid. You wanna stick it to the guys trying to kill you? Live another day.

(Simple enough, but might as well keep the conversation going while they leave this place.)

[42_passes]

Oh...okay...

[Crona's just...going to follow obediently, shuffling along and staring at the ground.]

...thank you...
