WHEN: February 14th - March
WHERE: Etraya
WHAT: The arrival of newcomers, a mini mission, and some new city features!
NOTES\WARNINGS:
![]() ⏵ arrival ⏴ Welcome to Etraya! Arrival goes as expected - characters awaken on hospital beds and are offered an explanation of their situation: that they have arrived in the city of Etraya, and they are their world's only hope. They are welcome to wander the hospital if they would like to - the upper floors are mostly empty, full of pristine hallways and numerous rooms filled with supplies, cots, and things one would expect from a relatively average 21st-century hospital. In the hospital's lobby are several party tables set out with miscellaneous baked goods: croissants, cookies, breads, cake slices, as well as tea and coffee to accompany them - or hot chocolate, for those who are opposed to the other offerings. Outside the hospital, the last remnants of snow are melting in the sunlight as the weather begins to warm up. It's still chilly enough one might want to put on a coat, but not so cold a jacket is necessary for wandering around without freezing off one's fingers. We hope you enjoy your stay. ![]() ⏵ heroes return ⏴ As the Quantum Rail train glides to a halt, returning passengers step out onto familiar ground - the train station, right where they had initially begun their mission. When exiting the station, their earpieces vibrate, indicating the automatic download of a detailed map which highlights key locations, transit paths, and notable landmarks. As Aurora promised, she had been working on a few renovations around Etraya! A sleek trolley system now winds through Etraya, following clearly marked pathways through the city bubble to make travel across the city smoother. However, the trolley only moves one way, eternally following the loop Aurora has set it on. And because of this, it takes six hours to complete it's loop all the way around. Don't miss your stop! Pets and animals have been returned to their usual preferred areas, some awaiting the arrival of their owners, and others keeping to themselves in the forested areas throughout Etraya. Beyond the small upgrades, things seem relatively unchanged - until one familiar sign catches the eye. One marked by four vertical lines, methodically crossed out one by one: the final slash has now been drawn through. The tally is complete. What it indicates has yet to be made clear, but it has to mean something, right? No one would go through the effort of making an ominous-sounding sign without following through. ![]() ⏵ love in the air ⏴ This Valentines Day, Aurora and the companion bots have opted to try something a little different: they have scattered mystery valentines across the city. Hidden within mailboxes, tucked into cafe menus, slipped under doors, on the outside of high windows for those wall-crawlers to spot. There are countless of these little slips of papers, strewn throughout the city. And within each valentine, is a challenge or gesture to complete. Please feel free to make these up yourselves as long as they fit in with the theme! Some examples include:
While not mandatory, completing five tasks will earn an individual an additional ten points to use towards anything they would like! Each little Valentine is signed "Your Secret Admirer. ♡", and some of them may even be addressed to specific individuals. Don't be surprised, Eddie, if you see one or two that are specifically addressed to you lurking around your collection of chicken friends! And while most of these are harmless, some of the valentines cards come with effects for those who come into contact with the paper. Perhaps they thought it was a piece of garbage, or were just kicking it out of the way rather than intending on taking part. It doesn't matter! They get to join in on the fun, too. Heart Eyes - your pupils literally turn into hearts for a few hours, making it hard to focus on anything other than things (or people) you find attractive. Love-Struck Stammer - You can only speak in poetic compliments or romantic declarations, regardless of whom you're speaking to. Chocolate Bliss - Everything feels good. Simple. Easy. As if there's nothing in the world to concern yourself with. You feel happy, without any concerns or worry. Rose-Tinted Vision - everything looks soft and romantic, as if you're in a romance novel. You know the ones. Magnetic Attraction - regardless of what you had been doing, you suddenly find yourself unable to leave the side of the person closest to you. Had you been eating chocolates while walking down the street? Well, have fun getting stuck to the guy who'd been out for a jog! Serenade Syndrome - you find it impossible to resist the urge to sing your words, turning all conversations into love ballads. Heartstrings - A thread appears, connecting you to someone close by who you share many similarities too. Perhaps you had never met this person before, but the threads tied around your pinky fingers that refuse to let go until you allow yourself to open up to them clearly means you should be a little more familiar with them. Love is in the air—or maybe just a bit of well-intended chaos! 💕 Welcome back from the mission, and welcome to Etraya for our newcomers! We've tried to keep this log simple for an easy introduction, as well as some downtime for our mission-goers who worked hard to solve the Quantum Rail mystery. There is something else going on, but. . . well, no one seems to know what! The computer that had been on the lower floor of the hospital is now missing, and Aurora may seem a little flustered as she flits around Etraya, in search of something. For all questions relating to this log, please refer to the mod queries comment. All other questions can be directed to the FAQ. |

Wheeeew.
Okay. There's oxygen in his lungs again. ]
Have any of your nemeses ever given you a compliment?! [ He feels like he's catching the other with that one! Especially when Spider-Man said that his usual nemeses just throw building at him..
No way they were doing that and complimenting him at the same time. Fabian refuses that idea. Straight up. ]
no subject
... Nope!
[No. No nemesis has given him a compliment.
But you know what?]
Be the change you want to see.
[INSPIRATIONAL.]
no subject
It's an intense squint. He may even be leaning forward a little bit, like he's trying to take a closer look at the other real quick. ]
It sounds suspiciously like you might be attempting to befriend me.
no subject
I'd never do such a thing. Not to my favorite nemesis.
[A hand to his chest, and then:]
How could we duel it out if we're friends? C'mon. It would kill the vibes!
no subject
Or into the other's hand that's on the chest, anyway. ]
That's why I'm saying this! I am watching you! I won't be caught dead having a nemesis of all people trying to befriend me. It would be a stain on my beautiful legacy!
no subject
[Suddenly with a THWIP, Fabian's other hand is webbed to the top of the trolley. Spider-Man doesn't miss a beat and immediately hops up to run along the trolley, toward the back. As he goes, he calls over his shoulder:]
That'll dissolve in an hour! Happy V-Day!
no subject
[ Excuse you, Spider-Man?! In this middle of a conversation? In the middle of a conversation?!
Granted, that's probably exactly the moment a nemesis should strike. Yet Fabian looks kind of offended all the same by the other's sudden and surprising offense on him. He's frozen in surprise just for a moment, but then the offended surprise turns into offense without the surprise. As the half-elf frowns in annoyance, there's a quick casting of Pyrotechnics, burning the web away with magical fire.
Then he's already taking off after the other. Spider-Man clearly still has an advantage here, since he got such a headstart, but Fabian sounds like he's sprinting after the other with all he's got. ]
If you're jealous of me because I have a boyfriend and you don't, all you had to do was say it, you know!
[ .. Fabian, nowhere did the other indicate that is at all relevant here.. Are you taking the V-Day comment that far, dude?? ]
no subject
I'm not jealous, 'cus I don't swing that way!
[GET IT? Because he swings?! Ha, he cracks himself up. But when he looks back and notices Fabian is sprinting after him with the light of a thousand bitter suns powering him, he goes eep! real quiet into his mask before he thwips upward onto the nearest street light.]
Is this nemesis tag?! Is that what we're doing now?!
no subject
Do you truly expect me to not do anything in return then?! I am Fabian Aramais Seacaster!
[ You know.
Like the other.. doesn't know his name.. Even though Fabian has definitely told him his name before.. Yet he feels the need to belt it out all over again all the same.
And yes, he is still sprinting in the direction of the other. He isn't showing any signs of stopping. This is a Looney Tunes cartoon now. ]
no subject
[LIKE, IT'S ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS PEOPLE LEARN ABOUT YOU. He proceeds to slap his hands onto the nearest tall building and start crawling up it with reckless abandon. How are your freeclimbing skills, Fabian?]
And it was just a little web! You're being dramatic!
no subject
Oh, I'm being dramatic?!
[ Says the guy yelling dramatically.
And still standing on the ground, even as the other is starting to climb up.. Young man yells at
cloudsa spider-themed superhero climbing up a building.. ]If I'm the one being dramatic, then why are you the one running away?!
no subject
You want me to just stand still? Where's the fun in that?!
[He stands up on the side of the wall, so he can look down at Fabian.
... Very normal way to talk to someone.]
Listen. I was just teasing you! Can you find it in your heart to forgive me, nemesis?
no subject
He's quiet for a moment though.
Staring.
Like he's thinking about all this. About the other's question. ]
... How about you come down here and ask me again?
