graveyard...2

[mgtropes]

GRAVEYARD

Notice of an itinerary change—

Well, shucks! You died. This might be a familiar experience for you, maybe not. Either way, you're probably feeling distinctly less dead now, with any injuries you previously obtained now healed. Grogginess still clouds your mind, but in a way that's reminiscent of waking up rather than anything nefarious.

... Not too unlike when you first arrived here, actually. Namely, because you wake up in what looks to be an airport terminal. Again! It's not quite the same as the one you were in before, but you're not free of airports yet, it seems. To be specific, you're in the baggage claim area, in the most literal sense: lying in an open suitcase on the carousel, going round and around (or, if you were unlucky, you might've tumbled out of the suitcase as it slid down onto the conveyor belt). You might want to hop off at some point.

If you're worried about your belongings, you can find them either on your person or in another suitcase chugging along on the belt. Once you retrieve everything, there's a new area to explore. Plus, reunions to be had with those who died before you, or with the four Hosts you haven't seen since the first week. And should you be worried about the living side, there are various screens around the terminal, allowing you to still watch what's going on over there.

► GRAVEYARD RUNDOWN

• You are able to see the living (and their public network posts).
• Weekly effects are still active.
• Any personal items you didn't give away before your death are with you in the graveyard.
• You can still use your curse items on the living, with the usual caveats of avoiding OOC inconvenience (e.g. no effects that would last into Thursday night).
• The graveyard has its own set of NPCs (Maestro, Bora, Libeccio, Scirocco). You are no longer able to contact the living side's NPCs via audiences, but you can talk to the other four once again.
• If you get injured and would like to be healed (within reason), the graveyard NPCs can heal to varying degrees, so feel free to handwave tapping them until you got one who could help you.
• You may handwave the NPCs explaining the basics to you: you're alive again, but you're unable to regroup with the "living" side due to lacking a mode of transportation to the airport terminal where they are, and a barrier is blocking people from leaving the old-fashioned way. Trying to book a ride is a work in progress for the entire graveyard.
• As of Week 4, the memshare effect from Week 3 remains.

[crawling in]

This... is this really just made from pillows and blankets...?

[say, what's that on the shelf? comics?? manga???

luke fon fabre is now flipping through the first volume of H*mestuck]

[frostfist]

[ chilling in a tshirt and shorts combo near the back of the fort with more tea in his hands. ]

Never been in a blanket fort before?

[dupelicate]

Me and Guy used to make them when I was a kid, but this is on another level...

Do you think the pillows and blankets are that big, or that we shrunk?

[frostfist]

[ looks at himself. looks at luke. finally looks at the pillows. ]

We were all kids a couple days ago, maybe we stayed the same size.

[ he's joking. ]

[dupelicate]

Oh, maybe. That would make sense!

[makes perfect logical sense]

[frostfist]

[ HELLO but if that's what he wants to think then okay. ]

Ever watched your body be carefully inspected on the big screen?

[dupelicate]

No.

[he looks actively uncomfortable.]

[tactic]

[ wanders in late with cofefe ]

Oh, welcome. Careful not to get lost in the fort.

[dupelicate]

You can't get lost in a pillow fort!

[tactic]

I've changed my mind. I encourage you to explore deeper into the fort when you get the chance.

[dupelicate]

[jade-coded answer...]

...I'm gonna stay here.

[tactic]

You learn quickly. I'm Aventurine, by the way.

[dupelicate]

Call it a trial by mad scientist. I'm Luke.

[...]

You weren't in the other place... right? Did you die somewhere else?

[alttitude]

This is a fascinating first question but I admire your resilience.

[ hey ]

[dupelicate]

[hey]

I-It's really big!

[alttitude]

I've seen bigger?

[ anyway ]

You alright? Don't need a snack? A drink?

[dupelicate]

Bigger than this?

[too late he's invested]

[alttitude]

...

I'd keep teasing but I'm wondering if you might never catch on?

[dupelicate]

I want a bowl of wings and a soda.

[honkinbigteeth]

[pops in belated.]

Hi, welcome!

[dupelicate]

[:O]

Uh, hey.

[...]

Okay, so, maybe a weird question. What does a horse look like to you?

[honkinbigteeth]

[:o!]

I can show you, if you want.

[dupelicate]

Yes!

I want to see your horse!

[honkinbigteeth]

[okay, well. she will start cracking her bones and growing in size and adding muscles and fur and just generally kind of body horroring in shape horribly. she is transforming into not a horse per se, physically it is a wolf with wolf fur and a wolf face and ears, but the wolf parts are being contorted into the exact shape of a horses body.

it's truly terrifying to behold this.]
