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

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!

Don't know how much good they'll do if it ends up being all of us, but those might come in handy if it's just one. [ So, it's something. And something's better than nothing, even if their luck's sure as hell been shit around here. ]

But Jim told me he's been working on that stuff, yeah. He's not too crazy about the idea, so I'm not sure how it'll go if it ever comes to that... but there's nothing we can do but have faith in him if it does.

[ And hope to all hell he doesn't freeze for his own sake. Because if he does... it's definitely over for him. ]

[ Jim's not crazy about the idea, huh? ]

He's gotten a lot better. You should challenge him to see how it goes. [ He then beams. ] Should have seen him flip Kunsel when we were in that storage shed downtown. That was pretty awesome.

[ Jim is a good student. Capping his water to put it back into his bag as he thinks for a second. ]

I think we'll just have to worry about it when it happens. Or I could just headbutt everyone.

[ Poking his own forehead, and finding the wound the ghost gave him. He keeps forgetting it's there, which is weird given it's a head wound. ]

I don't think you're gonna be headbutting anyone any time soon, buddy.

[ He's straight up eyeballing that wound in emphasis. Yeah, Zell, no. Don't do the thing. That won't lead to anything pleasant right now. Still.. Zack cocks his head to the side with something belatedly incredulous in his expression. ]

Jim seriously flipped Kuns though?

[ That's honestly a feat for him considering how scrawny he is by comparison, but it's definitely not impossible. It's been months now since they've started practicing. ]

It doesn't bother me. Jus' annoys me.

[ It's odd to think that. As a fighter, he should be concerned about a head wound. But he didn't really feel it. It was there, and the blood was pretty bad, but... he didn't really think about it.

He's going to latch on to the second topic. ]

He did! It was great. I don't think Kunsel ever saw that coming.

[ Zack just stares at Zell at that first comment. But in the end, he decides not to press. No sense arguing and he'd hope that Zell would only do that as a last resort anyway, letting his fists do the talking instead. Either way, he'll just have to put his trust in him.

So, he lets it slide with another nod and a faint smile. ] Sounds like Kuns underestimated him. Serves him right. [ The smile goes just a bit smug. ]

brb gonna murder everyone one \o/

Bet he won't do that again.

[ He makes sure he's packed up. Checking the rations and water to see if he has them still and there isn't any odd additions to the borrowed stuff. ]

You know, it feels like something is missing. Besides the obvious... [ Of not having the usual companions around. ]

It feels way too light. [ Patting the bag. ]

[ Zack huffs out something of an amused note at that. But then he's starting to sling his own bag up over his shoulder. Starting to stand and despite the wariness Zell's been feeling, he does offer out a hand anyway. Whether he takes it or not is up to him. ]

Well.. Not exactly like they're our bags. But if things work out like they tend to do, we'll have them back.

[ All the little stupid knick knacks and other crap they've gathered. Most of it they could live without if he were to be honest. But he gets the sentimentality all the same. Just because you can doesn't mean you don't want to if you can help it. ] Come on. We should keep moving.

[ He actually takes the hand, not really thinking about it at the moment. After getting up, he swings the pack on and then nods. ]

Yeah. We should find the others before anything gets to them.

[ Or anyone... ]

That's the plan. [ Despite the ominous unease he can feel, Zack manages to flash him a bit of a smile. With a firm pat to Zell's shoulder, he nods off to the side in the direction of the nearest hallway not traveled. ]

Let's go. [ The sooner they get moving, the sooner they find them. Hopefully. ]
