INCOMING MESSAGE (NON-KIDNAPPED CHARACTERS ONLY)

A CALL FOR HELP


β–Ά SUDDEN TRANSMISSION
On the 13th of October, the network flickers online and several messages pop up. Outsiders will probably recognize the usernames attached to them.

@ KIJYO

castle in the fog
skulls
watching us
sacrifice
help us

@ GOLDILOCKS

wolf kaiju
Promises protection
Found broken radio

@ BANKERBOY

🦸=❌
πŸΊπŸ’€πŸ”¨=less fog
πŸ‘Ή=πŸ¦‡πŸΊ
πŸ§‘β€πŸŒΎ=πŸ’©!
🏰=☠️!
go toget

@ ONESTEPFORWARD

We're okay for now. Careful of purple flowers. -πŸ¦†

Some Outsiders might notice these usernames to be Lucy/Kaede, Taryon, Nanami and Malkuth respectively. The messages end there and there will be no way to contact the senders or anyone who has gone missing. While Outsiders in the town will be able to use the network to speak to each other, the reception will be spotty and the messages might be delayed. It might be more efficient to simply meet up in person.



β–Ά AFTERWORD.
The messages from the kidnapped characters are out! Thank you everyone for participating! Non-kidnapped characters may use this log to have discussions (or do whatever else might be relevant). As previously mentioned, after the 7th, they will not be able to contact any kidnapped characters, and their messages to each other will be spotty or delayed (which can make for funny shenanigans if you prefer). It is probably much easier to organise an in-person meeting, but we will leave it to you to do what you like. The townsfolk convene at the church for their daily prayers and worship at about 12 noon every day. Outsiders may use this time away from the townsfolk to have more private discussions.

We have put this up early to allow people more time to thread in it, but ICly it is going up on the 13th and will lead up to the Kaiju log on the 15th. These messages are also delayed. Whether or not the captives actually are 'okay' is up in the air ...

All tags on this log are worth 2 points and will count towards October AC.

if someone you loved was in the position they are
and the option for someone you never met opened to take their place
which would you choose


[ (Because





you wouldn't care, about that person you never met. As long as your family members were safe... As long as you could stay together... What did it matter?) ]

I would choose to sacrifice myself instead.

All this is meaningless hypotheticals. They had choices. They could have warned us, asked for our help, left this land and the kaiju. Instead they chose to kidnap innocent people and act like everything is normal!

They've taken someone from me and I won't stop until I get her back, even if I have to go through every man, woman, and child to do it.

if you sacrifice yourself then you cant stop it in the future
its giving up


[ (A blinding load of "crab" from you, sure, but--) ]

there might have been examples made in the past
nothing comes without effort
we dont know how long its been going on
youre not better than them

go and offer yourself up if you want her back so badly
do you think shed agree

Again, mere hypotheticals. I don't plan on dying here anytime soon. I've saved her before and I'll do it again, as many times as it takes.

Either way, the only issue that matters to me is getting our group back safe and sound, and from there we can eliminate the kaiju, erasing the threat these people pose. End of story.

[ "Mere hypotheticals" until it happens. "Mere hypotheticals" that say more than Yato does. Siffrin shrinks, wishes Odile was here.

Don't wear yourself out. ]


nonlethal for the people in your way
if you can manage

[Basically his way of saying he'll deal with that bridge when he crosses it. There's too many variables and hurdles to overcome right now. But it's not like he wants to go on a bloody rampage.]

Trust me, I'll try. But the others' safety has to be our priority. They're the innocent party in all this.

[ ... ]
