Day 4: Morning

Morning: 6:00am - 12:00noon

[ IRL Timeframe: July 3rd - July 10th July 17th, 2019 ]

If any hero was expecting day four to be anything but absolutely bananas, they'd been living in a dream bubble. Fortunately for everyone, they wake up where they fell asleep the previous night. Unfortunately, though, everyone receives a decidely rude awakening at 6:06am.

An earthquake.

No part of the island is safe, everywhere and everything starts shaking and rumbling. Roads split, the train tracks bend, buildings fracture, buildings collapse...

...and bright, glowing blue fissures open up in the ground.

No city is safe from their new feature, but in every single city it's clear that the cracks are coming from a specific source. In Far Haven, the cracks lead west to Craydon. In Bamborough, the cracks lead east to Craydon. In Craydon, though, the cracks lead directly north up the mountain. They gradually narrow the further up the mountain you go, where do they end?

Heroes will, of course, not be able to immediately see this pattern. How are they going to find out about it? Social Media won't be buzzing about it until noon at the earliest!

But that won't be the only thing social media is buzzing about by noon. It looks like Web is nowhere to be found. A concerned local not a stalker reports the missing knight and there's quickly a deep discussion about it. Death? Ran away? Kidnapped? Abducted by aliens? No one knows. There's no body. There's nothing. Where'd Web go?

Fourth Morning Event: All Cities: The Quake.


The Weather

  • Eerily still.
  • 64°F / 18°C
  • Despite the quake, there's a nice breeze.


Prompts:

  • 6:06am Earthquake, Everywhere: Every town has fallen victim to an earthquake. The damage is unthinkable. Cars aren't moving anymore, roads and paths are obstacle courses, and everything inside has fallen over. It was a big one! Fortunately the citizens are out almost immediately to begin rescue and repair efforts. No matter where the heroes go, there'll be someone to help, something to do, or help to be offered. Do you need saving, or will you be saving others?

  • 7:45am Train Station, Far Haven: Social media is going absolutely crazy. There's a MONSTER here! There's a monster in the train station!! Numerous pictures are posted of a Child-shaped monster with ten eyes instead of a face. Today, however, he's wearing a pair of black athletic shorts, some flip-flops, and a T-Shirt that says "I'm with Stupid" on the front and an arrow that trails around to the back of the shirt where it says "You're Stupid". At the train tracks, he's going one rail tie at a time repairing them to get the tracks straightened and fixed again. What's the deal???

  • 08:00am International Cabin of Crepes, Bamborough: As if Social Media wasn't buzzing enough about the monster in Far Haven, it explodes again when the Wizard arrives at ICoC for breakfast. Several servers post that she asked for "the family table" and she invited all the knights and the princess to join her. Breakfast. Her treat. Anyone who comes to visit will find her sitting at the head of the biggest table, sipping a mug of coffee.

  • 11:00am Mountain Base, Craydon: [Exploration] Several hikers have returned from up the mountain, reporting that they'd found "strange doors" blocking their path. According to the description they gave, it sounds like the doors can only be opened if one, or more, of the heroes make the climb up the mountain. The cracks go up past the doors, but there's an invisible wall all around the area that stops them from ascending any further. Whatever's going on up the mountain will need some heroic intervention to figure out. Good luck, heroes!

Things Matilda Hamilton does not know: why she is here. She's wealthy enough to buy her own island, there's no reason for her to not buy her own breakfast. But she's exhausted herself from teleporting herself and various road obstructions out of the way-- so she finds herself sitting near the middle of the table, rapidly flipping back and forth the menu, unable to decide what she wants.

There's an untouched gigantic strawberry milkshake with sprinkles in front of her, but she's sipping black coffee and pouting, only stopping in her constant flipping back and forth of the menu to glare at her phone on the table.

He arrives late. Very late actually, but his curiosity wouldn't let him give this opportunity up once he knew people had begun to get the towns back under control. He enters the restaurant all folded up on himself, trying not to touch anyone or anything, walking past the host station and jumping when said host turns to direct him where to go.

He could not look more out of place, and this continues as he pulls out a seat at the table and sits, looking like he expects something to explode any second now. Instead, a waiter comes up and he shrinks down in his seat, peering up at them from under his brow. He then asks for four eggs, and has to say four times that he doesn't want them cooked at all. He just wants them in the shell, please.

It takes a nod from the wizard, but the waiter nervously writes it down and leaves him in peace after that. He doesn't look uh any more relaxed, but he does at least turn his attention to the wizard, wondering how she's going to get this started.

"Oh," he says, looking down at this absolutely delightful plate that she just put in front of him from nowhere. That's uh very cool of her. The salmon in particular catches his attention, and he plucks one of the strips up, cutting a chunk of it off with his claw and throwing it in his mouth. Gross!

He gives her the answer she expects to the coffee, shaking his head firmly before he swallows. "No. Also, last night, I had something I needed to deliver to Bamborough. If you'd asked where I wanted to go instead, I would have told you that," he says, raising a significant eyebrow at her.

"Surprising me in the middle of a conversation is not impressive when you're," a vague gesture all over her, "you."
sustainer: (😯)

"I..." he starts, and then goes entirely silent. His eyes slowly widen, and he sits up a little straighter.

"Okay," is all he says before he sinks back down in his chair. He's going to eat for a few moments, blinking and considering what it means that the wizard just apologized to him? What a weird day this has already been.

"So why did you call us here?"

[personal profile] scandeled 2019-07-05 05:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Don’t mind her, Gyre— she’s just staring at him in complete and utter horror at his request for raw eggs. His diet is never, ever, ever going to be normal to her. She also slides her phone onto her lap, not wanting to risk him thinking she’s trying to get him on camera. She remembers day one’s threat well!!!

It takes her a while to regain her bearings and courage, but when she finds a moment, she looks at him suddenly, locking eyes from across the table. “Can you eat raw cookie dough without getting sick?”
sustainer: (Default)

[personal profile] sustainer 2019-07-05 06:20 pm (UTC)(link)
He turns and meets her eyes when he begins to feel her staring at him. He can't help smirking very slightly as he picks up a slice of raw bacon off the plate the wizard magicked for him and slurping it up from between his fingers like a noodle.

That's all the torment he aims specifically at her though, at least until she gets her courage up. Immediately, he meets her eyes, blinking slowly as he answers, "Maybe. What's in it?"
scandeled: (i'm either gonna cry or sneeze)

[personal profile] scandeled 2019-07-08 05:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Holy shit. It's probably good he doesn't continue, since the slurp is enough to make her flushed face pale, and she feels herself swallow nothing, against her own free will. She's trying to be the image of acceptance and accommodation, though, and she pushes through.

"I'm...not actually sure? Raw eggs. Sugar. Other baking things?" Her brows furrow- she clearly has not spent any time in a kitchen.
sustainer: (😯)

[personal profile] sustainer 2019-07-10 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
"Baking is... bread and stuff, right?" he asks, glancing thoughtfully towards the ceiling like baking isn't a regular ass concept for regular ass people.

"Then I don't think I could. The eggs wouldn't make me sick, but all the rest of it..." He trails off, making a so-and-so gesture. He's not really sure what would happen. He ate bread once and it made him feel like there was a stone in his guts for days, so he avoids it if he has the option.
scandeled: (pbbbt)

[personal profile] scandeled 2019-07-13 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
Matilda hums wistfully as she sips on her coffee, looking thoughtful briefly. She doesn't know much about baking either, but she gives a little nod, giving her hair a girlish twirl with her finger. "Bread and stuff!" She chirps.

"That's one thing we have in common, then! Though it's the antithetical situation for me, I can't have the eggs. Cookie Dough makes us both sick." She seems weirdly pleased to have found common footing with him though, and beams.

Seth looks like a dead man walking when he finally arrives after a lot of running around only to end up reluctantly going to check what had become of his...puppets...because he couldn't in the end resist the emotional pull to do that. He'd found only Marion and Abigail had survived intact, all the others were in various states of dismantlement. He couldn't decide whether to be grief struck or relieved.

Normally he would have wanted to stay as far away from the wizard as possible, but right now...he doesn't have the emotional resources to really be afraid. Besides there's promise of breakfast and he really has no idea where else he could get breakfast.
So (late) breakfast with the wizard it was.

Even though the smell of coffee made him grimace.
silentwords: (Default)

[personal profile] silentwords 2019-07-08 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
Seth barely acknowledges the nod.
Sorry Wizard it's going to take like 15 minutes for his sleep deprieved and emotionally shut down brain to process the facts he's staring at an actual menu and another 15 to decide and actually order something.

Though when the food arrives he finally managed to type out a question. Whether it was one you'd expect him to ask or not was another thing entirely.
"...Why us?"
silentwords: (Default)

[personal profile] silentwords 2019-07-08 04:30 pm (UTC)(link)
"Then who did? If you don't know who does?"

This boy's tired and it's something that's been plaguing him since he got here. Why oh why did he have to get picked.

Luka enters the ICOC with a certain air of authority, striding (mostly) confidently toward the Wizard's family-sized table. The hostess, having recognized him, guiding him there without a word.

He's requested the closest available seat to the Wizard, and sits.

"Good morning, Wizard." He says, simultaneously signaling for a mimosa from the waiter. Do they serve mimosas here? They do now. "Quite the morning, and it's not even 8 am. Nice of you to get us breakfast, though I question your choice of venue."
eutychia: (squidward)

[personal profile] eutychia 2019-07-08 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
"I like crepes. ICOC is just a little lowbrow on the scale of things though, you know?" Luka asks, feeling for the base of his glass before sipping from it. "Not that I expected many 5-star creperies out here."

"I heard about the monster at the train tracks by the way. It's all over the internet." He says, after a contemplative pause. "Is that who was responsible for yesterday?"
eutychia: (thonking)

[personal profile] eutychia 2019-07-08 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
"So then, we're still due for a meeting with the one responsible today?" Luka idly drums his fingers on the table. "Ten, huh? Helping. I didn't know your monsters wanted to do anything other than kill us and smell disgusting on the inside."
