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

[wheremst]

[ 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. ]

Definitely doesn't seem to be now.

[yeah.....the multiverse......]

Hey, you're Floyd's brother, right?

[myceelium]

That I am. I'm Jade- it's a pleasure to meet you.

[ Jade does a polite bow in greeting. He's definitely more... put together than Floyd in some aspects. Absolutely pristine clothes, no hair out of place, and his smiles are careful to hide his sharp teeth, as opposed to his twin who shows them off. ]

I'm assuming you were in the same group as him, then?

[inaclearing]

I'm Brett.

[He shifts as if to offer a hand, but then Jade's bowing...he just nods, he guesses? He's still in his nice embroidered jacket from Forrest, but he feels kinda underdressed in front of this dude.]

Yeah, I was. Floyd's great. I mean - not to say I'm glad he was kidnapped too, but I think he was the only person keeping us going towards the end there.

[myceelium]

[ Don't worry Brett- you haven't seen how dressed-up Riddle is yet.

He does let out a chuckle at that. ]

I understand what you mean. He's certainly unpredictable at times- it keeps things light and entertaining.

[inaclearing]

We needed that. The ability to have some fun, still.

[Brett in particular, though he doesn't say so. Also, because Floyd is presumably frolicking as a merman somewhere in the background here - ]

I'm glad he has his magic back here, I know that was bothering him.

[myceelium]

[ Oh, Floyd's absolutely frolicking still. Go eel boy go!

Jade watches for a moment before turning back to Brett with a smile. ]

I'm sure. Being stuck in one form for months must have been a bit stifling for him. But I'm glad he had people looking out for him.

[inaclearing]

Mmm. Yeah, I don't think I really understood it until seeing it now.

[The forms thing, that is.]

...I think he had a harder time than he let on. I'm not sure how you couldn't.

[myceelium]

Oh, certainly. He tends to be quite transparent with his emotions, but I'm sure something as serious as this was a bit more... taxing on him.

[ There's only so much fun you can have in a place where people drop like flies, even if you were given things to do. ]

[inaclearing]

[Brett nods.]

I hope he'll be okay. Sometimes it all really hits you later on.
