SILENT HIL PLOT: FOG EDITION

CHARACTERS: ALL OF YOU SICK-MINDED MOTHERFUCKERS.
LOCATION: THE TRANQUILITY: FOG-WORLD EDITION.
WARNINGS: SURE IS FOGGY HERE, HUH?
(Also, you know. Horror. In space. With Silent Hill. That's always a recipe for Friendship Is Magic, right?)
SUMMARY: WELL, YOU'RE PROBABLY JUST WANDERIN' AROUND
WHEN SOMETHING DRAWS YOUR ATTENTION,
YOU CRASH INTO THE GROUND AND THEN YOU WAKE UP
IN A PARALLEL DIMENTION...


OOC: Okay! To make this easier, I am going to split this up into two catch-all logs. This event takes place within the span of September 26 through October 3rd, so maybe include the day in the subject line. If you plan on shifting between the worlds in the middle of a thread, it might be a good idea to add a link when starting a new thread in the other log (but it's not mandatory. Do whatever works for you!).

Characters who wind up in the fog world will either find themselves simply waking up to it, or walking when suddenly it becomes strangely more difficult to navigate the hallways. Hmmm... the lock is broken, you cannot open it. What more, they will find that their devices aren't working properly. The video feed is mostly snow. Audio kind of works, though! So you're free to give that a whirl.

Those who were not drawn in by the siren call of Silent Hill will not be able to physically interact with any of the characters stuck in the fog or Otherworld. To those in the real world, they simply vanished, and may find traces of them via unclear radio static on the communicators or catch ghostly glimpses of the missing people wandering the ship. But that's it. Ooh, spooky...

Monsters can appear in the fog world, but there are significantly less of them. You're probably likely to only run into a few of them. Other than that, you're almost safe here. Almost. Things are just unsettling and foggy and doesn't look quite right. But you never know when things might transition into the Otherworld, so be careful.

By the by, now might be a good time to stock up.

For information/questions, refer to this post.

THAT LOG WITH LOTS OF NIGHTMARES AND OTHERWORLD STUFF GOING ON

[Jim turns toward the sound. through the muffling effect of the mist, he isn't quite sure what he'd heard. it might have been oi or it might have been a yell of pain. either way, Jim levels his phaser in the direction before he starts walking down the hall.]

Hey! [he calls again.] It's Kirk!

[Jack too makes his way towards the sound of voice, hand tensed and ready to draw the blade should anything jump out at him. Which, in all honesty, was quite possible, considering the ship they were on.

The voice is a little easier to hear, but it's still impossible to make out actual words.

Who is it? Gotta speak up, mate!

[there's definitely someone down there, and Jim picks up his pace, lowering the phaser fractionally.]

Keep talking!

[he's certain he might have heard a mate that time around.]

It's Kirk! [he tries again after a few moments, and he can see a dark shadow in the fog. it has him lifting his phaser, but he doesn't shoot, just keeps approaching at a steady clip.]

[Thankfully, with them both yelling at each other, it's easier to tell exactly where they were coming from and Jack turns, making his way slowing in one direction.

Thankfully, it wasn't too long until he sees a dark figure. Of course, last time he saw a dark figure and walked towards it, he ended up hitting a wall, so he continues to move cautiously.

I ain't gonna keep yellin', mate, you best hurry up!

Jack?

[that definitely sounded like a pirate's accent, and Jim lowers his weapon just a fraction, breaking into a run. he's already lost more than one person in this fog.]
bottlearum: (You're strange.)

YOU DON'T MIND LATE TAGS, RIGHT?

[Jack's eyebrows furrow together in confusion. He's pretty sure he's heard that voice before. Pretty regularly in fact. If he din't know better, he'd say it sounded like...]

...Kirk? That you, mate?

[He keeps his hand firmly on the handle of his sword. Just because it sounded like Kirk didn't mean it was Kirk. He knew exactly what kind of things the Tranquility could do, and he wasn't going to take any chances. One trip to Davy Jones' Locker was quite enough, thanks.]
