❧ 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~

Hmm. [That doesn't sound good.]

I couldn't ask you to pay for a complete stranger. How about we say I treat you instead in exchange for some information?

[There's not much sense to be made of it, truthfully. Hawk's voice causes him to stop and turn in surprise, but he's got the presence of mind to move the sword out of the way so he doesn't inadvertently impale the other man.]

Hawk!!! Hey, you're all right!
bonnypiperlad: (seriously?)

[personal profile] bonnypiperlad 2012-07-02 08:23 am (UTC)(link)
Ichijou?

[There's a moment of surprise at hearing the man, but given it's this place it doesn't last long. And since it doesn't look like he actually needs the sword at the moment, he sheathes it.]

There, are ye happy now?
bonnypiperlad: (smile2)

[personal profile] bonnypiperlad 2012-07-02 08:32 am (UTC)(link)
[He turns at the sound of her voice, and a relieved expression crosses his face, as he's glad to see she's unhurt. Still, he can't help but protest just a little bit at her words.]

Hey, I think I know how to run with a sword!

[He's going to sheath it anyway, though, because otherwise he does risk hurting her when he turns and goes back to where she is.]

Wasn't sure if we'd need it or not. Are all those zombie-things gone, do ye think?
bonnypiperlad: (earnest)

[personal profile] bonnypiperlad 2012-07-02 08:34 am (UTC)(link)
Sophie!! [He pauses only long enough to sheathe the sword, then he sprints the rest of the way to the malt shop. For a second, it seems as though he's going to hug her, but instead he just places his hands on her arms, looking at her intently.]

Are ye all right?

[Ichijou doesn't answer verbally, but instead responds by moving closer.

And closer, and closer - close enough that Jamie can probably see tears welling up in his eyes - and closer, and closer, and...

Sniffling but also smiling, he goes in for a particularly clingy hug.]

Well, maybe you're an idiot servant, so it could be possible?

[Or just maybe it's the latent magical abilities sleeping in this man's very tall hat. It was a hat even taller than Reborn's. You could probably fit two or three Reborns in that hat.]

B-but I have absolutely no information. There's not much of a point in talking to me anyway.

[What is this thing called luck....................... He's never had any!]

Um, these "others"--they wouldn't happen to be in some largely inaccessible area, would they... It'll be good if we could get in touch with them as soon as possible.

[There's only fine dining and whining from her, so shut your pink monkey trap!]

I can see why a neanderthal like you wouldn't understand the sacrifices a true hero has to make when all these lives are at stake. Rest assured, I practically saved everyone here on my own! [Flipping her hair. Kira kira 8oshi. So gr8, so gr8.]

Uh-huuuuuuuuh. How do you know he's not here?
reminded: (I think I'm beginning to see...)

[He listens patiently, nodding and humming and murmuring "oh dear" where appropriate.]

That's quite the tale, Luke. You've had more than one harrowing experience during your stay here. [Clark would be appalled... if he could even believe it.]
notsot8rri8le: (Riiiiiiiight.)

yaaaay

[personal profile] notsot8rri8le 2012-07-02 10:16 am (UTC)(link)
[An apology already? Man, this place sure liked to drag in all the polite types.]

If they're here, you can try contacting them with the CAT. Everyone who's brought here gets one, whether they want one or not. Aaaaaaaand you can't get rid of it either.

[this is--this isn't a dream bubble! there are actual living people here. it's utterly jarring and disorienting, but she hasn't forgotten her priorities. she knows they haven't broken through the other side of the fourth wall yet, so... just where is this place??

--!!!

is that...?]


Dave????
desertdaggers: (the shine of preparation)

[personal profile] desertdaggers 2012-07-02 10:42 am (UTC)(link)
Mm, true. It hasn't made it much less disconcerting, though.

I… it could be worse. [he shrugs, eyes flicking away for a moment] Hopefully we'll all sleep well tonight. [and he does look more tired than usual, a little more dark under his eyes, stance still a little tense]
reminded: (This may take a moment longer.)

... [He'll just let that verbal typo go.]

You may hold more information than you know. For instance, the reason behind your... state of undress.

[personal profile] desertdaggers 2012-07-02 11:06 am (UTC)(link)
…ah.

I hope that's something purely incidental.
desertdaggers: (you don't say)

[personal profile] desertdaggers 2012-07-02 11:11 am (UTC)(link)
[he's very glad of that, let him tell you.]

And so are you, I see! I'm glad. [He smiles, and reaches out to touch Jamie's shoulder, the smile fading a little.] And back here, too. What's happened to you since we last spoke?

Ah, certainly. What can I help you with?

Guess it'd be annoying if you wanted to switch to something else. Some fetch modi can really screw up your sleeping arrangements if you don't pay attention.

[His jaw tightens for a moment.] Houston, Texas, America. You?

So we've been yanked off for some other unknown force to get their jollies off. Nice. Weird they chose to make it look all country town, though.

Guess they needed someone to balance out all Vantas's hot air.

[…okay that's not too bad he guesses that's okay as long as she doesn't pinch hard]

Good to see you too, TZ.

[shrug] Unless I've taken to going back without letting myself know, and that'd never happened. Guess this place just decided it needed a double dose of Strider swag.

Re: [Action] ...gdi Leaf. Stop embarrassing yourself.

Really? Are you a trainer that I've battled then?

[..Leaf, no, down girl. This is not a trainer, this a ranger. You cannot pokemon battle him.]Do you want to battle?
champions_legend: (Ummm I don't know if this is the right c)

[personal profile] champions_legend 2012-07-02 03:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Luministi. It's a space station. I think.

[Leaf, you helped save the town and all you can say is you think? Girkl, you need to work on your detail retention rate/actually retaining the Important Information.]
