to: everyone ; mid-event

[krazed]

are we supposed to be associating during active warfare? I dunno! not really a Geneva Convention kind of gal

roll call? is there any life on Mars?

SOoooO things are pretty twisted and not in the ha ha dark humor funny kind of way

the free cities are feeling a little less "free," right now and I figured I'd light a beacon so we can all touch base with each other regarding the current predicament in a full-picture less jigsaw-type of way

besides I have friends with fins in other places
HI BIG GUY

and I'd like to know he's not sushi

there's not a kaiju level starfish alien attacking the capitol, right?
just checking

not the hundreds of others

[nomnoms]

[krazed]

who bashed chen?
more important why did chen deserve bashing?

good for us
less damage all things considered

man, I can't stand politics it's all a bunch of snobs that think they deserve power circle jerking with their friends while talking about how "great" their ideas are

SEBASHCHEN
CLEO FRIEND!

SORRY

YOU GO SPECIAL PLACE? NICE BEACH MY SPECIAL PLACE
NO CIRC LE JERK HEH HEH HEH

[krazed]

right! sebastian's that frisky little freak's name
aw lil guy

i do miss them

HEY IT'S FINE
i know how to make the most out of a mess

maybe next time nochwich gets opened up we can host our own party! huh?

[rookvision]

Nope, but there was a cloud of suspicious red gas that showed up not long before we all went underground, and I hear tell that there's been a coup in Thorne. So things are rather chaotic, at the moment.

[krazed]

so chemical warfare too? christ on a cracker! you know things are bad when life back home is less hectic.

any reports of casualties? we got some people beat up and there's some sick from reports of the same stuff but I missed the creepy gas and germ warfare window of opportunity.

[rookvision]

None yet, though there's already quite a few people in quarantine displaying symptoms. I've been dropping by the medical wing to help out, but from what the doctors have said, there's really not much anyone can do for now.

As for Thorne, I'm guessing that any casualty list would likely include the former queen. Coups don't tend to leave the previous ruler alive.

[krazed]

is "nothing we can do," code for keeping them comfortable until they die, or are the medical professionals lightyears behind like the rest of this place?

well, god save the queen then

[rookvision]

I’d say more of the latter, but the former’s not completely off the table. Granted, your idea of what’s behind, in terms of technology, might be a bit further than mine.

Eh, from what I hear I wouldn’t pity her fate much. I am worried about the others in Thorne, though, who knows what the new king might want from them.

[krazed]

how much further?

so, new king
any ideas on who is putting the dick in dictatorship now?

[rookvision]

Last I remember of London, Queen Victoria had been ruling for just over thirty years. Is that still true for you?

Fellow named Sidwell. Apparently he was a rather dissatisfied admiral. Beyond that, I'm as lost as you.

[krazed]

uh there's a queen but I'm not so sure it's victoria

queen Elizabeth? old undying lizzy.

well, at least we're lost together? beats being lost alone.

[rookvision]

She may be old to you, but she's not even been born yet for me.

Oh, certainly. Being lost alone is hellishly boring, if we're to be lost on this I'd rather have good company.

[aquilus]

What is a kaiju?

[That is clearly the most important part of her rambling message.]

[krazed]

giant monster that wrecks everything.
some are cuter than others.

[aquilus]

That matters when it is wreaking havoc?

[krazed]

it's okay to acknowledge something's easy on the eyes even when it's not easy in any other way.

[aquilus]

Yes, but monsters are different from women or men.

[divinityfrompain]

We're not the ones in warfare, just our kidnappers, technically.

Did you make it to the safehouse Harley?

[krazed]

kind of hard to "solve their problems for them," when they're so intent on keeping with the patterns of grievances and nationalism.

I did but it's like being packed into a giant sardine can filled with sad sacks. Arkham was more fun than this is.

[divinityfrompain]

Solvunn was mostly chill but I think it's one of those 'waiting for the other shoe to drop' situations because they don't have a real army, so if Macbeth over there decides to come over, it's not going to be great.

Did any of the Summoned get sick?

[krazed]

Not that I've seen but I'll keep you posted. It can be hard to distinguish between sick, injured, and sad at face value. I'm not part of the team doing the wellness checks.

I've mostly been helping the elderly and the kiddos. Opposite sides of the spectrum there with less baggage than all of us.

[divinityfrompain]

Yeah that's who they mostly had us shepherd into the ritual site. I live with two kids so their parents put them into my custody, which is a little intense but they're sweethearts. They've been helping hand out blankets and food to the elderly.

[krazed]

is it wrong to point out that it makes you an interim MILF?

talk about added stress, take two and call them in the morning.

that's sweet though, at least you've got your handy dandy helpers in your captive retreat.

[divinityfrompain]

Ha! I'll take it.

Honestly Solvunn is such a tight-knit community that we're all usually in contact anyway. The people feel safe here, the gods protect this space (supposedly).

So what's up with the kaiju starfish? Is that an actual thing?

[krazed]

supposedly. you met any of them yet, witchy warrior?

it was an actual thing
i took care of it

well, me and my posse
joint effort

i just landed the last blow

[divinityfrompain]

I have! Ish. I'm actually the favorite of one of them although she hasn't spoken to me directly yet, working on that.

HOW big are we talking?

[krazed]

that's right! the one that made you look all butterfly woodland nymph goddess.

I remember now.

ever see Godzilla?

[divinityfrompain]

That's right. Endrborrin!

Yeah I love those movies. That big????

[krazed]

yup

giant starfish, one eye
cosmic being from another realm or somethin

[divinityfrompain]

How the hell did you manage to kill a kaiju?

[infiniteban]

well the man shark's not sushi yet idk anyone else with fins

are there a lot of people with fins

[krazed]

I know more than one semi-aquatic man-creature so I might be the wrong gal to ask.

Nanaue responded though told me he's having a blast and he was the one I was checking in on, so
