SILENT HIL PLOT: FOG EDITION

[yardbird]

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.

John... You're not.

[He steps a little closer.]

You're not. [None of this is fine. None of it is okay.]

[theyalldieforme]

[John looks up at him, and there's a fear there, because everyone else backs off when he says that, even Riley just let him be, but somehow he knows that won't be enough for Kurt.]

That was my uncle.

[A distraction, maybe.]

[showbizpanache]

He...he died?

[God, this place is horrible. So horrible. What's the point of all this?

[theyalldieforme]

He was shot in the head.

[But not like that. It didn't take out half his skull.]

[showbizpanache]

[Kurt's quiet for a long moment, and then he moves closer--close enough to reach around John's shoulders and give him a gentle hug. He knows what losing family members is like. That's one thing they can connect on, despite it being such a painful one.]

[theyalldieforme]

[He stands there, still and hard for a moment, before he eases up into the hold]

[showbizpanache]

[He holds on, even though something tells him he shouldn't. It doesn't feel like Blaine-- John is too tall, and he isn't gripping Kurt the way Blaine used to, so tight and warm. It's all wrong, but this is the only way Kurt can think of to comfort his friend.

Words aren't enough anymore. And John had done the same for him, after all.]

[theyalldieforme]

[The stiffness eases away. Everyone dies for John - that's a truth that Derek had said before, told him, it's a truth that happened, person by person, year by year. His arms go around Kurt, carefully, and he stays there another moment]

I'm all right.

[He says it because it has to be said.]

[showbizpanache]

[Finally he pulls away, and tears are glistening in his eyes again.]

Let's find somewhere to rest. Quickly.
