Ruins Mingle Log!

Who: Newt Geiszler [personal profile] ohnehalfte and EVERYONE
What: So a bunch of people headed up towards the ruins, so they've got to all run into each other and start to congregate, right???
When: Evening of the mingle log and onwardish.
Where: The Ruins
Warnings: Um...same as the mingle log?



The beach curves up a gentle slope until it meets forest, some manner of building visible through the trees. Further exploration of this area will reveal a dilapidated building of sorts; the architecture is indiscernible to even the most skilled eye. Despite looking as if it has seen better days, there are areas that offer some form of shelter...and who knows what else. Just because it appears uninhabited doesn’t mean you won’t wind up pleasantly, or unpleasantly, surprised.


[ooc: Hey y'all! I thought this might be a good place to start getting larger groups of characters together to do some exploring, settling down, banding together and figuring out rations, etc. Feel free to throw up any threads of your own for specific things like exploration groups, a gathering in the entrance hall, whatever strikes your fancy or that you think your character would organize. Have a party!

Edit: Additionally, there is now an OOC Post for those that want to handwave their character signing up for ruin exploration]

The confidence is very much appreciated, if perhaps slightly questioned. Being alone is a shitty thing to be good at, but it's a skill he's glad to hear she at least believes she has. It doesn't sound like...a great place to be coming from, but at least maybe she's more prepared than he first thought. And the relief he feels comes as something of a surprise. You know what, he blames her name, actually. Sucks to be Taako, cursed to be kind of unexpectedly nice to people named Ren, what a weird curse that he definitely didn't make up.

"Good. But don't feel like you have to be alone all the time just because you're good at it."

The people on this island are kind, is her first thought. She can remember the adults in her world having little to say to her outside of whatever furthered their projects and ambitions. She doesn't remember kindness like this. Even Drifter had offered his companionship, to her surprise, on their first meeting. These people aren't Seto-they can never replace his presence and she's having difficulty acclimating to their different behaviors, but it's nice. It almost feels like another dream. Taako's words resonate with her and she stares at his face for a long time before a tiny small appears on her face. She doesn't offer a response to his words, but she will keep them close to heart.

"Keep your treasures on your back," Which is weird advice coming from the gremlin that attempted to take his stuff to begin with. She's trying to help him from having that problem again. Like it was his fault. She's trying, okay? "You can keep them safe that way."
