The City in the Day

[offontherightfoot]

[The streets of Tokyo-F are clean and lively. Here, the plants are real, but the buildings are empty, just like in the real city. The people walking past are faintly blurry, more the idea of a crowd than a crowd in actuality. You may catch sight of faces you know; you may even catch sight of you.]

[Near the exit to the WEST, the streets become dingier and less bright, the buildings damaged. To the NORTH, you catch sight of someplace you think you know.]

[There are three exits: NORTH, WEST, and EAST.]

[ It's like walking past ghosts...

He'll inspect the faces a bit, but he doesn't think they'll see or talk to them. They feel more like flashes of memory or simply... knowing someone exists. Never the less, he noticed how the streets to the west looked... but then something North looks familiar and so he's going to head that way. ]

A Rain of Fire

[offontherightfoot]

[Fire rains from the sky here, too, and blood, and hail. The people on the streets scream and shield their heads, scrambling for cover.]

[Sweet Six what the FUCK are they supposed to do about this?!

INT 6... NOT HELPFUL]

Re: A Rain of Fire

[dragonheartedgirl]

[ An INT roll of 11 means







probably she has no fucking clue what to do. even though she's racking her brains. ]

Re: A Rain of Fire

[offontherightfoot]

[YOU GUYS ARE PANICKING, what is even rational thought.]

Re: A Rain of Fire

[wonderlandgirl]

[Oh, no.

[Oh no, oh no, oh no.

[Things had been looking positive for maybe five minutes and now - now everything's just a hundred times worse and she doesn't know what to do or how to help it or, or anything--

[She'd just been starting to think that maybe she wasn't totally hopeless in a crisis, too. See what comes of that?

[There has to be something, doesn't there? Some way, at least, not to make things worse.]

[INT: 17]

Re: A Rain of Fire

[offontherightfoot]

[You can't stop the hail, but you can help these people find cover.]

[Besides, storms blow over, right? If you deal with the immediate damage now, you may be able to wait it out.]

Re: A Rain of Fire

[hissterics]

[ WHAT THE HELL IS EVEN GOING ON AROUND HERE

Int 10 while she just -- presses flat against Cobalt's back, ears pinned back. No suit means she's getting BLOOD RAIN ON HER. ]

Re: A Rain of Fire

[offontherightfoot]

[YOU ARE ALSO PANICKING, all ideas are the mental equivalent of !!!!!!!!!]

Re: A Rain of Fire

[backstory]

Should we just... try to help evacuate people or help them to find shelter!?

[ INT role 9 isn't really helpful?? ]

Re: A Rain of Fire

[offontherightfoot]

[Sorry, that roll means you're also panicking though actually that idea is not a bad one]

Re: A Rain of Fire

[wonderlandgirl]

We have to get everyone inside--!

[It's not much of an idea, but it's the best thing she's got.]

Maybe it'll pass, if we just wait...?

[Back and hovering over the city, he turns on the macguffin and holds it out away from his body JUST IN CASE]

Re: A Rain of Fire

[offontherightfoot]

[It shoots wild sci-fi energy waves at the sky, in rolling shades of electric blue. The further they spread, the more the clouds dissipate.]

[Within two minutes, the sky is clear again, though the ground is still, uh. Bloody. And full of hail.]



[Also that tree is on fire.]

Re: A Rain of Fire

[wonderlandgirl]

[WELL THEN LET'S CLEAN UP

[頑張って!!]

Now... We just need to fix this. I'll see if Doctor Yoshioka has some mops.

Re: A Rain of Fire

[we_meet_again]

[WOW that works!

It looks like the others found a fire hydrant somehow... The trick is like... getting the water from the hydrant to the place it needs go go. Some buildings have fires hoses in glass cases mounted to the sides of them, don't they? Can he see anything like that?

Alternatively, a hose store?

Re: A Rain of Fire

[dragonheartedgirl]

[ Well, now that we have a fire hydrant--Hiryuu's going to be looking around for some hoses and buckets. Anything to help distribute the water.

A City Restored

[offontherightfoot]

[With the fire rain gone and the blood cleared away, the people sheltering under overhangs begin to venture out into the city streets once more, continuing on their way.]

Re: A City Restored

[we_meet_again]

[LOUD DEFLATING BALLOON NOISE

THANK GOODNESS]

Re: A City Restored

[hissterics]

So like . . . it's fixed now, right?

[ Hurricane won't DROP DEAD??? ]

Re: A City Restored

[we_meet_again]

I... think so? Everyone seems like they're getting back to whatever they were doing, so that's gotta be a good sign.

[watching the people passing by]

I can't believe just talking to a guy did all this.

[But it's Hurricane so... actually that checks out]

Re: A City Restored

[wonderlandgirl]

[... which is about when Wednesday shows up with a bunch of cleaning supplies.]

Oh--! I'm sorry, I tried to be as fast as I can! Dr. Yoshioka didn't have any and Dr. Cross was busy, and I guess it took me longer to find them than I wanted to...

Re: A City Restored

[we_meet_again]

Wow, good haul, though!

I think we've gotten this place mostly back to normal, but we're thinking about checking out the Heart Soldier dorm next and seeing what we can do there. Sounds like these'll be useful to have.
