[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!

[Rather than hold his hand, she decides to hold onto the crook of his elbow instead.] Yes. I'm glad to see you, too. I thought I wouldn't find any of you again. Ever.

I saw some people I hadn't seen before, but they talked about the town, so I guess they had been there, too.

[bywolves]

You found me. [ He keeps her close when she holds on, leading her slowly out of the core. ] Who did you see? What sort of people?

[empireofrats]

[For a moment, she looks thoughtful. She talks as they walk, since there's no doubt Royce is going to move even if he's not consumed by mania.] I met Mister Watson again. He had fallen down because the floors were funny, and you couldn't tell when there was a hole.

I met Miss Claire again, and Mister Stark. And I met Mister Bucky, too. And the man I played hide and seek with when I wasn't myself.

[bywolves]

[ He mostly doesn't want to get attacked again. He goes slow, at least! ]

I don't know that last one. [ Most of the people she's run into, Royce doesn't like, oops. But they're all not likely to hurt her, at least. ] What did he look like?

[empireofrats]

[sweating]

Um. He has red hair, and--his face. Something happened to his face, I think. Something not good. He was scared because... [She watches their feet guiltily.] I tried to hurt him when Miss Tifa and I weren't ourselves.

He was hiding, and I was trying to find him.

[bywolves]

Mm. But you didn't hurt him this time. [ That's reassuring, right? Royce pauses, glancing down at her. ] Are you fine to walk?

[empireofrats]

Yes, I can walk. [She looks back up at him.] My legs feel really heavy, but... I can walk. Mister Bucky carried me for a little while, so they're better.

[bywolves]

Alright. [ He rests a hand on her head briefly. ] Tell me if you can't. I can carry you.

[ And he'll just keep pushing her out of the maze to somewhere safe. ]
