graveyard

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.

Seems like you really left an impression on them.

Would make sense.
First night we were there, Bowl Cut and I shot each other.

[ gazes ]

Is that usually the sort of bonding you engage in with newly met teammates?

What do you think?
'Lil forker shot at me first.

You didn't have to shoot back.

You really don't know who you're talking to, huh? Clothes not enough for ya?
Kid shot me right in the side point blank, so I gave him a warning shot in the ear. I'd say I was pretty generous.

I try not to judge too much on outward appearance. But your words have been noted and filed away.

Glad we got an understanding.
I know it's tough to believe by now, but just know I ain't ever gonna harm someone innocent. Never on purpose. If I ever do, that ain't me.

Mr. Aventurine did say you weren't acting yourself the other day. I'll take both your words for it until proven otherwise, though I hope I won't have any reason to believe otherwise.

That's my promise to ya then, and I intend to keep it.
Now. What say you about tattoos and piercings?

[personal profile] frostfist 2025-06-09 08:28 pm (UTC)(link)
I already have a few piercings, so you can probably guess my feelings on those. Tattoos are a little too permanent for me though.

[ i think wrio should show his tramp stamp to the world ]

Ain't ever had the itch? Bet you could sit through a whole sleeve if you wanted.

[ pass ]

Been a little too busy recently to really think about it. I'm also not sure what I would get.

No pets? No sweetheart's names?

I work too much to have either of those.

Huh, so you're a workin' man.
Blue collar or white?

Gotta get food on the table somehow. But I work primarily in management.

Management? You sit in a desk all day?

[personal profile] frostfist 2025-06-09 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Something like that. Though I try not to make it all day. Sitting all hunched over while filling out paperwork really gets to you after awhile.

I really wouldn't take you for a desk guy anyway.

I get that a lot. But you know what they say, don't judge a book by its cover.
