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.

[Oh, hey. Millium actually gets a smile from him.] If you have the time. I just need to spread this around the perimeter of the motel. [He pats one of the bags of plant food.] This should help with the growth of the plants. Just mix it with the soil.

[Millium brings a hand to her forehead in a quick two-fingered salute.]

Roger~!

[And she is immediately on the case. ...This quite probably involves mixing the soil and plant food with her bare hands, she is going to be an absolute disaster once this is over. But she's helping!]

[Okay, he chuckles at that. She's certainly enthusiastic, at least.] You should probably use a shovel when spreading it, though. [Her hands are tiny and cannot carry much.]

[personal profile] doublelammy 2018-11-09 01:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay!

[She waves to acknowledge receipt of this suggestion... which sends some soil flying everywhere, yay.

Once she's done mixing, though, she will grab a shovel to spread it.

...and promptly grabs entirely too much. When combined with how the shovel is probably nearing how big she is, it's a funny sight to see her hobbling around with this thing.]
silvertongueheir: (That was close)

[personal profile] silvertongueheir 2018-11-09 05:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey, be careful... [Alright. He just puts down his own shovel and comes over to help her support hers.] Don't pick up so much next time. We have plenty of time to get it all done.

[Franciscus is swifly becoming Exhausted Plant Uncle to this child, and it's beautiful.]

Ehe... sorry! Got a liiiiittle over-excited~

[Understatement.

Anyway, with his help, the soil makes it to where it's supposed to go, mostly.

She does indeed grab a more reasonable amount when she goes back.]
silvertongueheir: (I had in store)

[personal profile] silvertongueheir 2018-11-10 08:56 am (UTC)(link)
[That's good. He's still going to keep an eye on her as they finish off the dirt piling, though.]
doublelammy: (☆ 6)

[personal profile] doublelammy 2018-11-12 01:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[She helps finish that off with little incident. Hooray!]

O~kay! Anything else you need from me?

I can handle growing the plants on my own. You're also working on that building in the park, aren't you?

Yeah, but a lot of that is just Olympia blowing herself up over n' over again, and everyone else seems pretty happy to help her out with that.

Mind if I just watch for a bit? I don't think I've ever really paid attention when you did this before.
silvertongueheir: (Til now I've been pretending)

[personal profile] silvertongueheir 2018-11-13 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
[A pause.] I'm alright with that, I suppose. [He sits down, legs half-crossed, on the ground, as he begins to focus, small sprouts beginning to grow from the dirt in front of him.]

[Millium is... mostly quiet. Bless her, she tries, she can tell he's trying to focus.

But she just can't help it if a little "ooh..." comes out, okay? She's impressed!]
silvertongueheir: (Til now I've been pretending)

[personal profile] silvertongueheir 2018-11-13 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
[He's okay with that. It's nice to know there's someone on this side who's still on good terms with him. If she watches long enough, she might notice the plants sprouting under Natalie's window are of a different type than the ones growing everywhere else.]

[personal profile] doublelammy 2018-11-13 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
...Huh? Those ones are different. Why?

[So much for staying quiet.]
silvertongueheir: (I always knew)

[personal profile] silvertongueheir 2018-11-13 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
Well...they're usually meant to symbolize childbirth. But it feels close enough to a birthday flower from all the ones I know. [And he knows quite a lot.]

...A birthday flower?

[Someone hasn't been paying attention to the guestbook.]
silvertongueheir: (Til now I've been pretending)

[personal profile] silvertongueheir 2018-11-13 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know who did it, but her guestbook entry has been updated. It says she's seventeen now.
doublelammy: (☆ 22)

you doubleposted jsyk!

[personal profile] doublelammy 2018-11-13 03:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[GASPETH]

Whaaat?! She had a birthday and I was dead and missed it?!

Boooo! We coulda tried to throw her a party...!

[#PRIORITIES!!!!]
silvertongueheir: (I always knew)

will fix!

[personal profile] silvertongueheir 2018-11-13 04:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Heh. [A slight smile] Hopefully the living will notice.
doublelammy: (☆ 39)

[personal profile] doublelammy 2018-11-13 04:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Ehe... yeah, I hope so.

[personal profile] silvertongueheir 2018-11-13 05:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Hopefully, this week will not be too bad for her. [If he could see the future, he would definitely not be saying that.]
