❧ Just Breathe

[For days, the zombie invasion of the Luministi town and spacestation has gone on, but through various means, there have been less and less zombies appearing by the day. And now, only a few remain, stubbornly shambling after their prey--

--or rather they were. With a bright, blinding flash of light, their bodies instantly change. No longer are they dead and decaying, but are that of full-fledged living beings with absolutely no desire for brains or flesh of the living. In fact, while they take a moment to blink and look around to see where they are, these townspeople merely shrug and continue on with their business like they did months ago. For them, it's back to their normal routine, and if asked, they won't even remember being a zombie. No one does. Even those who were killed during the fighting are back, right as rain.

But something else has changed.

Something big, yet the sound was so soft and heard by none. A door has been opened...

And from the surprise left in the town square, it seems other metaphorical doors have been opened as well, a fact that the sender of a text message to all of the CATs, is very well aware of:]


Enjoy this respite from chaos while you can.


[The moment that text is sent, anyone still injured will be blinded once again--but will find all wounds have been healed.]


Plot Details: Just Breathe
    Welcome to Luministi's Fourth Wall event! If you have never participated in 4th wall with us before, the portion above the cut there is an IC continuation of the story that has been in the making for the past two seasons (a summary of which can be read here if you are curious, but it's not required reading!) Unlike past events, the town is not only fully populated with people who will just talk about mundane things about Luministi, but the pathway to the spacestation via the Mayor's House has been opened. How long that will remain open is anyone's guess, but for now, take advantage of it!

    Also, visitors have a choice of physically appearing in the town square or communicating from their own world via the CAT.

    Now, for those of you new to the game, the CATs, or Communications Audiovisual Transmitters, are personalized communication devices about the size of your palm, and for this day only, visiting characters will have this device. They'll have found it randomly on their person with no idea how it even got there. From a video broadcast standpoint, you'll be able to see the the immediate surroundings of the person you're talking to. More information about the CATs can be found on the FAQ page, which also has some handy tips about how the game is run and other questions about the game that aren't answered elsewhere in the mod journal. But if you don't see your question answered anywhere, please don't be afraid to ask!

    In-game time, this event lasts a day, but you can tag for however long you want!

    If visiting players do app into the game they will be able to remember visiting the town (or viewing it in a video feed), as well as everyone they met, the moment they show up in the town of Luministi for real. Yeah for ready-made CR, right?

    And for current players, consider this a plot break! I'll have the game's next proper plot update for you guys tomorrow, so enjoy the breather while you can!

    This event is the last one the game will hold, unfortunately, as Luminsti is in its final season. All of the storylines and mysteries introduced back in June 2010 when the game first opened will be brought to a close, and how it all does will be up to everyone involved. There are choices to be made and tasks that need to be accomplished--but only if you do it. Not doing something also will result in something, but whether it's for better or worse, well... You'll just have to come along for the ride and see, won't you?

    Apps for [community profile] luministi formally close July 28th, 11:59pm EST. I look forward to seeing everyone here! ♥

    Now, let the fourth-walling commence! Have lots of fun~

[Sophie gapes at him, mouth hanging open. after a moment, she chokes out:] You were killed!?

[nobody explained zombies to Sophie...]

[But wait has Rose ever even seen her. Is she going to think it's strange if Kanaya randomly walks up to her, she's probably confused. But it's Rose, so she's probably got her head on her shoulders...???

Kanaya ends up just kind of staring at Rose from a distance.]

[personal profile] magicisreal 2012-07-03 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
[You're in luck! It's the Smart Rose. Who has methodically turned in enough of a circle to stop when she sees a glowing off-grey horned humanoid.]

Kanaya?

[Why does this surprise her? They're together on the meteor, for crying out loud.]
fortune_sought: (Considering 2)

[personal profile] fortune_sought 2012-07-03 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. [she nods, pausing as she works out how to put this. the concept was new to her as well, not that long ago] It's a sort of...building. But one that floats among the stars.

I know this must seem unbelievable, but it is true. Unfortunately, we don't know why we've been brought here, or I'm sure it'd make a fair bit more sense.
reminded: (looks into horizon)

[personal profile] reminded 2012-07-03 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
I do, indeed. [But he thought Inspector Chelmey would have notified him if said flying machine had mysteriously disappeared.]

Now that you've mentioned it, I'm interested in seeing the condition of the old girl. Why don't we start there?

[The hells are promoted back up to the fucking yes. She makes her way over. Not sure what's up with the godtier outfit, but she assumes time shenanigans are involved.]

Hey.
magicisreal: (intriguing)

[personal profile] magicisreal 2012-07-03 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
[This face? Is unimpressed. Interested, but hardly floored by appearing in a...pristine manicured not-a-party-in-sight town.

Mother would have been pleased with it, perhaps.]


Do you have an explanation? Or has sudden and unexpected dream bubble bouncing become a thing while I was [Another pause, like the universe can hear her silent ahem] busy?

All right, it's this way! [Grab bag strap and begin the march!

It's on the way to his house, anyway, and he does want Layton to see at least the neighborhood. They'll stop at the car first.]

[personal profile] tactilekonesis 2012-07-03 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
It's not entirely bad, I promise--and my name's Conner. It's nice to meet you, Rapunzel.
resonatingdreams: (a star you can always keep)

[personal profile] resonatingdreams 2012-07-03 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
Among the stars, really?

I suppose if nothing else, this will make a good story for the children, if I see them again.
chainsawspistice: (> Kanaya: Survey.)

[personal profile] chainsawspistice 2012-07-03 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
[Can you feel the silent surprise noodles emanating from Kanaya's person?]

This isn't a dream bubble. This is a human habitation complex built inside a space station. The cosmetic appearance of the environment is artificially rendered, so in some sense I suppose we are in a kind of bubble, but it is purely physical and in no way reflects the state of anyone's consciousness.

At least, I think. The details are still foggy.
manicurious: (GROSS SOBBING)

[personal profile] manicurious 2012-07-03 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
Yes! Even though I came back somehow, and I'm incredibly grateful for that, it's so disturbing to recall...
reminded: (Hm?)

[personal profile] reminded 2012-07-03 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, that sure does look like the future Laytonmobile.]

It's as I remember it. [He brings a hand to his chin.] I have to wonder what purpose it serves here. It doesn't seem like anyone is trying to convince us that we're traveled into the future again.

What's your opinion on the matter, Luke?
magicisreal: (derse dream team)

[personal profile] magicisreal 2012-07-03 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
[Ooh. Wiggly.]

A space station, is it? I'll walk to the edge of it, then. Care to join me?
fortune_sought: (Positive)

[personal profile] fortune_sought 2012-07-03 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
Yes... [she frowns, a bit frustrated] I would show you, but they've blocked us from the only building with windows. The way out is through there, so I'm certain that's why.

Oh, you will. [her expression is determined now] We'll make sure of that!

[and then her expression softens, and she smiles] But for now, I'm Sophie Hatter. And you?
fortune_sought: (Apprehensive)

[personal profile] fortune_sought 2012-07-03 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
[she sputters] I'm...I'm so sorry, Mr Ichijou. I had no idea...

[it takes her a moment, but she swallows hard, trying to recover herself] But...I'm glad to hear you're no longer trapped. [it's a bit of a weak statement, as she can't get over what he just said happened to him]
manicurious: (Hopeless)

[personal profile] manicurious 2012-07-03 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
[He wipes his tears again, but it's still kind of a useless effort.]

I'm glad for that, too. I'm truly grateful to be able to see everyone in person, but it's just - these thoughts keep sneaking up on me, and then they make me feel sick which makes me think about them even more.
wind_of_reason: (tricky who me)

Re: [action]

[personal profile] wind_of_reason 2012-07-03 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
Ah...

[So cute. Fuu smiles at the mysterious dog - she can't say she understands animals as well as Hikaru, but it seems that it's hungry.

Cutting her strawberry shortcake in half she places it on a napkin and lays it on the ground.]


There you go!
resonatingdreams: (why be gloomy)

[personal profile] resonatingdreams 2012-07-03 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
Sadly, I'm not as certain as you. The last I remember, everyone was in danger, and...

[He pauses, but then smiles gently to stop having a sad expression.] But worrying won't change anything right now, will it.

My name is Lafra. It's very nice to meet you, Sophie.
chainsawspistice: (> Kanaya: Just a taste.)

[personal profile] chainsawspistice 2012-07-03 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not even sure there's an edge we can walk to, but I'll join you anyway.

I should tell you that we're most likely from different timelines, or on separate points of the same. Your Knight player has already referenced events I have yet to encounter.
wind_of_reason: (arrow)

Re: [action]

[personal profile] wind_of_reason 2012-07-03 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
It... seems to be. As sudden a change as everything seems to happen here, so, I think I can say with some certainty that that crisis is over.

I'm glad to see you in person! The way into the ship is open then?
magicisreal: (amused)

[personal profile] magicisreal 2012-07-03 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
[The way she is looking at Kanaya from under her hood right now usually sends Karkat into loud fits of verbalizing.

But everything does that.]


That is, as some might say, his "thing".
wind_of_reason: (happy ohhohoho)

Re: video

[personal profile] wind_of_reason 2012-07-03 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, Miss Cissie! [Surprised but pleased, she bows with a bright smile.]

It has been a while! I'm well, thank you, but for the fact that I've returned to Luministi. How are you?
wind_of_reason: (oro)

[personal profile] wind_of_reason 2012-07-03 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! Oh! [It takes her a moment, but the memory does return] Mister Doc!

It is me. However I'm very sorry to say that this is not Japan.

... If I may, it seems that you are in a wall? Do you need a hand?
