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.

Nothing!

[yelling at the top of her lungs is absolutely going to solve all of her problems forever, or at least she sure sounds like she fucking thinks so at this volume?? she doesn't turn around or quit trying to march off, though...]

[ Nine looks at Will and lifts his hand up to greet him. Nine seems relaxed despite all the yelling.]

It's nothing, yo.

[ He's not going to share that with Will. There's hesitation, as he looks after Clarisse before he just jogs on after her. You have a friend, Clariss~*~*~ Nine is proud. ]

monstrology: (♰ hmm)

[THIS DOESN'T SEEM LIKE NOTHING???

Taking a few steps after them, Will calls out:]


Is it really nothing, Clarisse?! Do I need to step in?!

[Sorry Nine, he's not as familiar with you so he has to know...]
snideper: (i would always be free)

[Clarisse doesn't actually answer Will because she is too distracted fucking screaming at Nine some more as soon as he starts catching up.]

Get the hell away from me or I'm going to kill you!

[so, that's fine,]

She can kick my ass, yo.

[ That said over his shoulder. You know what, Clarisse? He still thinks that's cool. And now back to Clarisse. ]

Hey, want to shoot shit?

[ Destruction y/y??? ]

We can always try aiming at one of those town people who ignores us.

[ Good idea or no? ]
monstrology: (♰ hmm)

I don't doubt that!

[Will doesn't pursue, but he'll be checking in later...]
snideper: (the way is long)

[personal profile] snideper 2018-11-09 06:02 am (UTC)(link)
[she will be more appreciative of this faith in her ass-kicking prowess when she isn't having a shrieking breakdown in nine's direction. thanks for the help, will.

For now, Clarisse stops again, curling her hands into fists tight enough to leave marks in her palms when she turns to face Nine.

I've had enough of you playing nice! We're not friends, and we're not going to be! You've got no reason to keep bothering me and no right to act like you don't have to pick a damn side!

[She takes one hard breath, desperately tries to stabilize herself enough to maintain her anger.]

Leave me alone. I want nothing to do with you.
