1st Adventure

[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?

Oh the milk from the store is just fine, it's just the bottles that arrive at your door every morning is the stuff you gotta watch out for.

And no one really knows. All we have is theories and stuff the town has said and contradicted. We don't know the whole story.

Right. Got it. No on the delivery milk. That's good, because I really wanted to try milk. So many people drink it, it must be really good.

"The town has said"? Do you mean other people here?

[identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com 2011-09-14 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I kinda count the town, the drones, and the mayor and what not as all part of the same thing. Sorry.

[identity profile] forever-cheery.livejournal.com 2011-09-14 02:09 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess it's easier to say it that way.

What's the mayor like? Is he a drone?

[identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com 2011-09-15 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
No, but he is a powerful resident of this place and he works with whatever the hell is managing to bring us all here and whatnot.

[identity profile] forever-cheery.livejournal.com 2011-09-15 02:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I see. How terrible that he would do something like this to everyone... There's good points for me being here, but I want to get back eventually. And I'm most people here want to get back to their family and friends. Is anyone doing anything to fond a way out of here?

[identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com 2011-09-15 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
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.

[identity profile] forever-cheery.livejournal.com 2011-09-16 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
What are people trying? Shouldn't everyone be working together? That would be easier, in the end.

[identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com 2011-09-16 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I know of at least one group, there's probably two or more.

[identity profile] forever-cheery.livejournal.com 2011-09-16 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
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!

[identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com 2011-09-16 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
[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.

[identity profile] forever-cheery.livejournal.com 2011-09-16 12:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Well that will only make things worse, if you ask me.

[identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com 2011-09-17 05:29 am (UTC)(link)
You can' force people to work together smoothly. We're lucky to have the groups that we do, and the fact that they aren't working really against each other.

[identity profile] forever-cheery.livejournal.com 2011-09-18 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
I guess not... but you'd think that if everyone wanted to get out of here so badly, they'd work together harder!

[identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com 2011-09-18 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
I know what you mean. I hope it works out that we're just covering all bases then actively screwin' each other over.

[identity profile] forever-cheery.livejournal.com 2011-09-18 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
I would sure hope so. I definitely would want to help, but it would be difficult if everyone was working against each other when they want to do the same thing. And weird, too!

[identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com 2011-09-18 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
Well, There's a big main group that's startin' up again. You might wanna start there!

[identity profile] forever-cheery.livejournal.com 2011-09-18 03:25 pm (UTC)(link)
That sounds good! Do you know who I need to talk to?

[identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com 2011-09-18 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, there's a guy who is probably trying to regroup a previous organization. He seems to be the one who's going to have some luck. He's a huge guy with angel wings. You can't miss him!

[identity profile] forever-cheery.livejournal.com 2011-09-19 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
Right, big guy with wings. [She doesn't remember what an angel is, but that's okay.] I'll ask around then. Thanks! You've been a lot of help.

You're very welcome Aurora. His name is Sanguinus. Though don't blame me if I've mangled it, I'm not quite sure I remember it exactly. [He is a bit embarrassed by this. Usually he's good with names, but this one just mangles his mouth on the way out.]
