❧ 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~

[she doesn't hear the comment as she's busy with their tea. after a moment, she returns with a small tray with two cups of tea and a pot of sugar, in case Ichijou wants to add any. she frowns at the sight of him, though]

You really should try to relax for a bit. Here, have some tea and cake. [she sets the tray down and offers him one of the cups]

What? [He's honestly shocked by the allegation, because that's not what he meant by it at all.]

That's not why I did that!! I did it so you'd not have to die alone, not because I pitied ye. Good lord, man, what kind of a person do ye think I am?

[One who's getting a little upset himself, actually.] I'm not treating ye kindly because I feel sorry for ye, ye daft numpty. I'm doing it because I want to help. That's what ye do if ye want to be friends with someone. Ye help them, and work with them, and be there when they need ye. And ye do it because ye like them, not because ye have to.

[He goes silent for a little while, looking utterly confused. You may have just melted his brain, Jamie. He seems overwhelmed.]

You genuinely like me.

[His reaction is a bit delayed, as he's still contemplating his other question while staring at his squirming hands.]

Huh? Oh. Yes, thank you.

[And he uncrosses his legs and takes the cup, then his hand hovers near the sugar pot... but he ultimately decides that it's probably a bad idea right now. He sips the tea and sighs deeply after swallowing - he seems to find it pleasing, at least.]

It feels like it's been ages since I've had a nice cup of tea like this.

Its A Long Story
Ga Says As Shes Bowled Over By Many Pounds Of Unadulterated Feline Prowess
Or Purrowess As Some Might Say If They Were Particularly Inclined To Insert Cat Related Words Into Otherwise Unrelated Language
The Short Story Is That Im On A Space Station Now Instead Of The Meteor
And That Im A Rainbow Drinker I Guess

[He follows, keeping up a cheerful expression.]

There is. I don't know any myself, but the children have a natural talent for it.
bonnypiperlad: (general)

[personal profile] bonnypiperlad 2012-07-22 07:15 am (UTC)(link)
[He'll take that as a 'no'.] Aye, he might be. Unless he was hiding somewhere, but I would've thought he would have come out by now.

He could still be somewhere on the spacestation, though.

[Oh god his thing just beeped what do--

He fumbles with the CAT for a moment, catching a glimpse or two of a cosplaying cat girl (WEIRD), before seeing the text message that arrives after the video feed.

His first attempt at replying is not the best, but he accidentally sends it anyway.]


diws this thung work hello???????who
catitude: (cr33per)

[personal profile] catitude 2012-07-22 10:36 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh hey! It it's a human kid!]

[He jumps at the ping, nearly dropping the device. Again.]

sawada tuna

whore you???


[Actually, that looks a bit wrong. But he's new to this suddenly-understands-English thing, so sue him. Considering all that's happened so far, this conversation is probably the most normal.

Despite the cosplaying cat girl.

At least he's used to cosplaying girls. Yes.

Wait, no, he doesn't cosplay girls. No, no. He's not used to that. He's used to girls who cosplay. Yeeeeeeeah.]


catitude: (pouncegr33t!!!)

[personal profile] catitude 2012-07-22 10:54 am (UTC)(link)
[yeaaaaah right]

[personal profile] doggtier 2012-07-22 10:55 am (UTC)(link)
But what about glow-in-the-dark.
tutored: (Huh?)

[personal profile] tutored 2012-07-22 11:03 am (UTC)(link)
[It's the gosh darn truth!!

Also, he has absolutely NO IDEA how to read her name. He always knew these newfound English powers would fail him.]

docinawall: (Wall)

[personal profile] docinawall 2012-07-22 03:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[now Ichijou just sounds like an AI who doesn't know it]

Well, yeah, but... Uh, you do know that when humans die, they don't come back. Right?
fortune_sought: (Talking)

[personal profile] fortune_sought 2012-07-22 03:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[though she feels a bit of an awkward hostess, she lets him handle this in his own time and meanwhile sips her own cup of tea. but at his comment, she nods in agreement] Between having to ration our food and the monsters, I think it has been ages.
fortune_sought: (Confident 2)

[personal profile] fortune_sought 2012-07-22 04:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[she's glad to have something familiar to talk about, despite the strange situation]

Yes, people are born with magic--or not--in my world as well. But I ask because almost no one here has magic in their worlds! It's very strange.
fortune_sought: (Investigating)

[personal profile] fortune_sought 2012-07-22 04:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[she nods, latching onto that hope] Then we'll simply have to look for him. [she glances toward the Mayor's House, as she has half a mind to walk off and do that right now]
