GRAVEYARD



The other side...?
Have you started feeling at home in Cartesio yet? The town has offered you every hospitality that its citizens could think of. They love every corner of this town and they want you to feel the same. Have you accepted Cartesio into your heart yet?

Then it should be comforting to wake in your hotel room. A ceiling you have gotten used to, the warmth of a blanket surrounding you, your own breathing... and silence. All-encompassing silence.
It perseveres when you leave your room, it perseveres when you leave the hotel... Cartesio is quiet because there is nobody in Cartesio who could be making noise. It's a ghost town.

There is only you now, you think. And then, just as you've given up, a noise comes to your ears. A voice, unmistakably. It's time to follow it.

As of Week 5 you may see random objects and buildings of any size flicker. For milli-seconds they seem to glow on and off, blur around the edges, even distort a little. It only happens for a moment at a time, but it happens fairly often.

Welcome to the Cartesio Graveyard. Your character has woken up in a version of the town that is devoid of citizens, but there do seem to be a few people around. Time to explore the mysteries of the other side. For a more thorough OOC guide, we have compiled an FAQ.

[ Having run into Nagisa and Nine already, Lovepon is finally getting used to actually speaking to people again so when Moloch approaches she's comparatively calm. ]

I was murdered. And I'm good with computers and torture.

[ ... yeah. That's a skillset. ]

You mean you torture by using these 'computers'?

[What's a computer anyway? Steampunk world doesn't have those!]

[ She tilts her head at that, confused. ]

No, I know lots of different torture methods. Computers, I mean like, hacking and stuff. I'll find things on the net that you're not supposed to find.

[Hm. He's not sure what this is all about, but he figures it could come useful if it's ever needed. Also:]

Do you think you can use that ability you have to find stuff you're not supposed to around here? Even if this isn't the net?

I'm a hacker, not a detective. I can look around, but I've been doing that for 2 weeks and it's just a ghost town...

[ A terrifying, empty ghost town. ]

We'll all have to be detectives if we want to get anywhere! It'll be better than saying we can't and do nothing...last time I did nothing useful I died.

[He says, as if he hadn't worked to make a radio. He feels like a failure for not managing to do that in time]

Where do you even want to get to...?

[ This seems to be pretty important to outline before they start working towards this nebulous goal. ]

...I dunno yet. I just know we can't accept anything that's going on, we have to fight somehow.

[Somehow. No idea how]
agoreable: (13. considering)

Hm.... I don't mind not going back to my world, but this is a terrible place to live in, so maybe I'll help then.

You don't like your world?

[It's odd to hear she doesn't want to return to her world. Home he'd understand, but the entire world?]

It's hard to start over in it... I was going to, before we got here, but it was troublesome. If I do it somewhere else, that's fine as well.
