1st Adventure

[forever_cheery]

[Action1 : 921 Bilko Blvd. Waking up is awfully strange, especially when you don't sleep. Aurora Belle sits up in the bed for a few moments, blinking in confusion. Everything around her was solid, as well. Was this some new fancy house in the Afterlife? They certainly never had pajamas before there. Or sleeping people.

Speaking of. Poke poke, sleeping man. There's a lovely new wife for you to wake up to.]

Hello! Hi. Um. I have a lot of questions for you, if you don't mind.

[After that, it's off to explore the house. She'll be gawking at the photos, poking the appliances, and generally touching anything and everything like it is all shiny, new and novel. This will lead to a phone call to everyone! There's a clattering sound as the receiver hits the ground.]

Oh no! Did I break it? What... How do these things work again? [Insert the sound of the receiver being fiddled with.]


[Later, Action 2: Aurora has taken to the streets to explore her surroundings. Despite any warnings she may have been given, she looks like she's having a grand old time. She looks positively giddy as she comes upon the park. She'll be stopping whoever passes by to share her joy with.]

Isn't. This. AMAZING? I had no idea that the sun felt like this! Or that the air smelled like this! [She breathes in and lets out a deep breath.] And that breathing is so easy! You don't even have to think about it or anything! Or blinking, either! Or a lot of things! Hey, do you think I can climb that tree?

I know. Yeah, we're all trying various different ways to go out. I guess it just depends on what your flavour of group is.

Mostly, people go wherever they think they should. Heaven, Hell, an Underworld which is both and neither.... it really does vary.

[Just a few minor ones on her arms, which Aurora looks at with confusion.]

I guess so... Ahahaha, I'm used to being able to just float through everything so naturally... [She stands up now, looking a little embarrassed.]

[forever-cheery.livejournal.com]

This is all just so wrong. There's no good reason to do those things to people.

[forever-cheery.livejournal.com]

Huh... I wonder if I thought that way before I died or something. But since people don't remember anything, we're not sure what the common thread is... though we're pretty sure there is one.

[forever-cheery.livejournal.com]

What are people trying? Shouldn't everyone be working together? That would be easier, in the end.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Well, I know of at least one group, there's probably two or more.

[flowers-suck.livejournal.com]

No, there's not. That's why we have to work together against this town.

[forever-cheery.livejournal.com]

Right! Exactly! ...But how? It sounds like the people doing this stuff will just drone us or something if we talk to them. What are we supposed to do?

[forever-cheery.livejournal.com]

Maybe I'll have to make a phone call or two. I'd really to help. I know I can do something to make this place better!

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

[Ken grinned at her] That's the spirit. A lot of people get kinda depressed when they hear about all the stuff this place pulls.

[The parts about breathing and blinking? Don't even care. Climbing the tree, though? That gets Aurora a Look.]

Uh, I guess? Why the fuck would you want to, though?

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Gathering information, sharing what we find. It's dangerous though we could use the help.

[bread_goes_bip]

So there are a lot of ghosts back home for you?

[flowers-suck.livejournal.com]

If we can get everyone to work together, then it woulnd't be entertaining for them. They'd have to drone us all, and what fun would that be?

[forever-cheery.livejournal.com]

Well that will only make things worse, if you ask me.

[forever-cheery.livejournal.com]

Because it looks like fun? Sitting up there in all the leaves, in the breeze... Oh, I wonder if there's any insects up there.

[Off she goes! It's a slow start, though. It was much easier when she just floated about everywhere.]

[forever-cheery.livejournal.com]

Considering how many people in this town seemed droned, it seems like that's actually a lot of fun to them.

[forever-cheery.livejournal.com]

Oh, tons! The houses stretch on forever and ever, and there are hundreds in each one, and new people show up often.

[forever-cheery.livejournal.com]

Okay! I can do that! I'm not afraid of danger. [Because she has no idea what it is. Ghosts face very little dangers in their existence.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

[[Wonders if that is how she became a ghost in the first place.]]

You should be careful. There's plenty of people doing stupid things here.

[[Not going to admit he is one of them. Not at all.]]

[flowers-suck.livejournal.com]

Until they come out of it and realize they were mindless puppets for the duration.

[forever-cheery.livejournal.com]

I meant for whoever's doing it. Maybe they like seeing people act like that... The people all the same, the houses all the same... Though, it makes me wonder why they don't just keep people like that all the time, if they're going to bother doing it at all.

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

Guess it's been a while since I got here... helping other folk ain't my strong point. ...Though I guess ya got a point and have every right to be worried.


Alright. So what can I help ya with?

[forever-cheery.livejournal.com]

I will! I never said I'd do something stupid.
