I’ll take my throne, lay it on a mountain

[achievementhunter]

Who: Our volunteer mountaineers
What: Two parties split up to scale the mountain from two sides, planning to meet at it’s peak. Shenanigans occur along the way.
When: September 13th to 16th
Where: Group 1: G3, H2, G2 || Group 2: F3, F2, G2
Warnings: Please note any warnings in your subject headers!


Word spreads quickly in a small community such as this. What was originally intended to be a small party turned into something much larger- and on the day Chara planned to leave for the mountain, it’s not one, but two parties that make off for it’s peak.

Group 1, led by Chara, moves off during the early hours of the morning, seeking to search the furthest part of the mountain by following the river upwards. The path is longer and more winding- however, they are unhampered in when they can travel.

Group 2, led by Ardyn, takes off after the sun has set- due to the needs of multiple members to avoid the sun’s harsh glare. Their route takes them up the closest side of the mountain, which provides an easier path- however, they may only travel whilst the sun is set.

OOC: Welcome to the mountaineering open post! Keep in mind the following;

♆ RNG was happily done blind by our wonderful Guzma mun, with our animals RNG'd by Wade Wilson's! Thank them both for all your misfortune.

♆ Prompts have been provided for each group below! Simply toplevel wherever you wish and treat this like a normal open post!

♆ Since each group will generally be in close contact with one another, consider asking others if you can threadjack here and there; nothing says team-building like being a nosy parker.

"Uh... sure, hang on." Ginko leans forward to scratch marks into the dirt, frowning in concentration as he tries to remember the details. He eventually sits back up, apparently satisfied. "He said something about being a 'kaiju', I think."

Newt stares at the drawing for a good thirty seconds.

"Holy shit." And then--a grin starts to spread over his face. "Holy fucking shit!" And then...he starts laughing. Not just a small laugh, no, but a loud, cackling laugh, clutching at his ribs, because it's honestly so perfect and so incredibly ironic that he just can't help it. "That--haha--that's perfect."

...Newt that's not a great thing to say. This, of course, doesn't occur to him--and he's still giggling and oh his sides hurt but at least his laughter is starting to calm. And he's rubbing a hand under his glasses wiping away tears. "Of course we--hehe--we turn into a damn kaiju!" And he's off giggling again, snorting in laughter.

Okay, well, he didn't quite expect that. Though maybe he should have. Ginko rests his chin in one hand so he can hide his smile.

"The Fog God really did seem to have something of a sense of humor. ...A pretty sick one at times, but a sense of humor all the same."

It takes a moment, but Newt manages to pull himself together, rubbing at his eyes as he sits up. "Fog God? S--haha--s'that the god of that place?"

"One of them. The one who made us, uh... like this." He taps a claw against one of the pale green stones growing from his shoulder.
