there's always a lighthouse. there's always a beach party.

[ Welcome to... a very nice beach, actually! It's very pleasant here. Carmen has set up a couple bonfires, there's some barbecues with meat to cook... and a lot of beach to hang out on! ]

Welcome to California's Pigeon Point Light Station State Park! Between Santa Cruz and San Francisco, just south of Pescadero, this lighthouse gets it's name from the Carrier Pigeon, a ship that wrecked here in 1853! ... Sorry, old habit. Go party. We have the whole place to ourselves. Most everyone here's been through something like this, or knows someone who has. And... the vending machine's bringing in some friends of yours, too.

[ It's a warm late summer night - not too hot for bonfires, but not too chilly that you need to stick by them to survive.

You've made it to the end. There are fellow survivors to meet and commiserate with, friends to meet or catch up with, and... it's over. For those of you returning, it's been about a year since the end of Round 2, and Carmen's gotten the word out to as many people as she can between trying to help this round and tracking down Round 0. If you'd like to play a hostage from the first motive, just know that they will remember it, but it's up to the player in the main round if time has passed since then or not so... it may have been a day or two ago or it may have been months! And hell with it, if you want to play a Round 0 character you suggested back in r1, come talk to us. Why not?

EDIT: Asher has gone to the trouble of making a toplevel directory for anyone intimidated by the number of pages!

Enjoy the last log of Unknown Seas! You've earned it. Love meme will come later tonight in the ooc comm. ]

[Ah! Actually, this is fine for him to speak on as well.]

It is not always easy, that is for certain, particularly with people who do not wish to speak about their problems. I will admit that some would consider me to be too nosy... but I would suggest simply making yourself open to listening and wait until he is ready to open up about the experience. That is, in the majority of cases, the best thing you can do.

( perhaps it would be more reassuring if floyd wasn't... exactly the way he is. whimsical, capricious, and rarely willing to admit to something that could be exploited. and when he lives the way he does, any sort of trauma is exploitable.

perhaps it would also be reassuring if riddle felt like floyd took him seriously more than a few minutes a day. )


I'm not sure he ever will be. He very rarely does anything he doesn't want to do- and he only wants to do things that are fun.
baitless: seteth looking extremely downcast... (you're killing me flayn.)

I see... I must confess, those are the sorts of individuals I have the most difficult time with, when it comes to providing guidance. It is easier for me to deal with people who are a touch prickly...

Well. Do not overwhelm him with kindness, but do try to help him with the little things, I suppose.

Mm. ( a small nod, while he thinks. ) Thank you. ...Forgive me, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Riddle Rosehearts.
baitless: he's smiling very gently. (time to gently encourage someone!)

You are quite welcome, and it is no bother. My name is Seteth, and I am the assistant to the Archbishop at Garreg Mach.

...

That probably does not mean much to you, of course, but it is as good a title as any.

Perhaps not as much as if I were native to your home, but it's impressive nonetheless.

( riddle's a good boy who listens to authority when he's not the authority! this is a problem, actually. )

Ah, well, I am not doing it for the glory, I am simply doing it because I believe in it. That is all.
