October Aftermath: Crystal Clear

Who: All!
What: You're back, for better or worse. Time to recover.
When: Backdated to the 24th and beyond.
Where: The Monkey Compound, Islets, etc.
Warnings: Mark as you go.


No matter where you are on the morning of the 24th, things will very abruptly go dark.

Unless you're dead. In which case, things are already dark. And you do not see this.

For the rest of you, however, the Storyteller appears only briefly. Gone is their seemingly indifferent nature; as the rabbit hops too and throe, the pages of their tome flick back and forth in an erratic pattern, stopping on a blank page for only a moment, before continuing on. Despite the pages always turning in the one direction, there seems to be no end to them, not at all.

"I'll keep this brief, for the moment. All of you have now been removed from the caverns below," A haggard sigh- and a reluctant addition. "Those of you still alive.

"Your efforts have allowed me access to what lies below. I have sealed off the entrances- from now, the responsibility of cleaning up the mess is upon me."

And that appears to be it. Darkness returns, along with the sensation of lying upon the sand. Birds call out from the jungle, joining the rhythmic shift of the waves. No matter where you were on the island; underground, or above, you awaken upon the shoreline near the Storyteller's temple, along with the rest of the survivors.



"For what it is worth, I am truly sorry."




[[If you have yet to do so, make sure you confirm your character's death here!]]
prettypurpleparlor: Bidding you good morning now (Dear friend)

[Muffet smiles at him and shakes her head gently.]

I appreciate the thought, but I believe I can manage from here on- and I understand the need to do what one can, under the circumstances. My plan is to have a decent meal and rest for a little bit, then start seeing what I can do myself.

[In all honesty, if she wasn't so incredibly tired right now, she'd have just kept working on that without bothering with this brief break. But days of hard effort and little sleep take a toll even on someone as inhuman as she is, and she knows she'll be in no state to help anyone if she doesn't take care of herself now.]
greatcleavage: (sometimes things do go right?)

If I see you up and about in anything less than improved condition, I will put you to bed personally.

[The two of them have that much in common. The difference now only is that Roy hadn't been through what she had, down there.]

[He nods, and gently pats her on the back to urge her to the mana pool. Go get that rest, Muffet.]
prettypurpleparlor: Wily, flattering words (In a little corner sly)

Wrapped unless you have more to add.

Well, you can certainly try...

[Muffet winks at him, teasing, and steps forward into the mana pool with a polite little wave goodbye. It flares and she vanishes, off to her house to have a long-overdue nap.]
