[log] Event: Lavender's Green, Part Two [open]

[snowblindmods]

Characters: everyone
Location: mysterious, white hallways
Date: Day 193-194
Summary: Find friends. Get lost. Don't look.
Warnings: Potential for gore and psychological horror. Please note any specific warnings in your subject lines!

While confusingly similar, the area is split into a few different sections:

The Core
The hallways here are narrow and twist at a rapid rate. With how dazzlingly white everything is, it's easy to not realize you're coming on a turn and slam right into the walls. There are no rooms here--no one starts here, though they may find it while they wander. At the center is a large, round area, like the center of a spiral. There's a lot of air pressure here.

The Inner Hallways
The largest area, filled with dead ends, gentle slopes and twists, and, occasionally, difficult-to-see drops where a higher hallway intersects with a lower one without a wall to separate them. The whole place tastes vaguely like blood. Most rooms are here--most people start here.

The Outer Hallways
The outer ring of the ball of yarn. It's not as thick with halls and twists as the other two areas, leading to a lot more boring walking in one direction. It's totally possible to circle around the same path multiple times without realizing it, as everything is so similar here. Occasionally, footsteps can be heard just outside the farthest walls. Sometimes, something breathes. There are a few rooms here--some people will start here.


Remember to note what kind of eyes your character has in their top level!

[renkinjutsu]

[when the vision is over, Ed lets out a gasp for air like he hadn't really realized he'd been holding his breath. At first, he lifts a hand up as if to move away from Alphonse as his gaze tries to refocus on the here and now, but halfway through the action he reaches out and puts a hand on Al's shoulder as if to try and steady himself.]

I'm... I'm fine Al. [he hesitates, looking at his brother's face, and the eyes that are scribbled there.] I was running in the dark from something. I couldn't see... but there were others with me and then there were less of them. Something was snuffing out their light. [And slowly Ed remembers the most important detail of the vision. The "something" had been Al. He grimaces, his fingers tightening slightly on his brother's shoulder.]

[That sounds horrific. Al's own vision was bad enough, the blood on his fingers, but it had just been fireflies he was crushing. If Ed had to see other people die, people they might both know, that was much worse.]

Did you see what it was?

[It could be some sort of anomaly? The prophet? Even a vague description might help give them clues to work with.]

[renkinjutsu]

[He doesn't want to tell Al. Ed makes it a point to fixate his gaze somewhere off in the middle distance, maybe the floor, but pointedly not at his brother for a moment while his mouth turns into a firm frown.]

...It was some kind of warning, Al. I think it has to do with all of this. [as he says "this" Ed waves his hands in front of his glowing eyes.]

I don't think the things you saw in your vision were bugs, Al.

What are you talking about?

[He hates when Ed gets that expression on his face, like he's not going to talk. It happens sometimes after a bad nightmare about that night, he knows that's what Ed dreams of, but he pretends like he doesn't.]

Brother, you have to tell me what you saw. It could be important.
