graveyard...2

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.

[ she laughs a bit, swatting at his hand, but not seriously. it's okay that he doesn't answer because memshare is coming :D ]

-- Huh? I didn't. [ a beat. ] Oh. You mean - hah, no, I just had no idea how I got here. I made that up, I never broke out.

[ c'mon like she was going to tell an extremely cool outlaw that she didn't break out of prison and just showed up here!!! ]

[ i also have to, i have not started a single one...

she snorts, taking the bump, and then leans against him idly. ]


There's not much point. I can't ever keep track of lies, and I already told you how long I was in there for anyway.

[ gives her a lil brief shoulder hug! his body is metal so it's not comfortable but it's the gesture that counts....... ]

Cute kid anyhow. Took me a bit to talk you down. I thought you were gonna try knifin' me.

[ it's okay she does not mind..... sometimes it is nice to be hugged regardless ]

I probably would've if you weren't metal. [ amused. ] It was easy to believe you weren't a topsider, though. That's all I cared about when I was that age.

[ silence, for a minute, and then: ]

Anyway. Enough about me. Your - Aeragan-Epharshel. [ says it carefully, like she's making sure to get it right, just like she did when she was little. ] It sounded way better than the lanes.

[ he smiles—this time warmly.

then he messes up her hair a little again and finally drops his hand. ]


You been to the ranch already?
