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

@ BANKERBOY
🦸=❌ 🐺💀🔨=less fog 👹=🦇🐺 🧑🌾=💩! 🏰=☠️! go toget
@ ONESTEPFORWARD
We're okay for now. Careful of purple flowers. -🦆
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.
▶ 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.
yeah, same for me. can't say “that shouldn’t be possible” since it ain’t like I got much in the way of Authority over this world, but it should still be a pretty tough thing to do. same with the fact that ereshkigal got bagged.
the theory that they got stuck here isn’t a bad one. noticed some people seemed to like this place and didn’t think much of it at the time. people got shit worlds they’re from so this place probably does seem nice. but now? not so sure that was natural
…for what it’s worth, feel like I should note that I won’t be making a decision on what to do this with this place, since feel like that’s what it’ll come down to. but I won’t have complaints with whatever’s decided either.
[ right, ereshkigal is also a god if the way she signed off that one network post was right. it's a little startling to realize both her and tezcatlipoca have been severely stripped of their natural abilities. no god should have anything to fear from the mortal world and yet... ]
whatever happens next can come after we rescue our teammates and take down this so-called forest god. my hope is that people don't take frustrations out on the locals. we need to keep them out of the way, but there's no need to do more than that. tensions are high but cooler heads can prevail.
i can admit that no one i care about has been kidnapped. mainly, i don't have anyone i care for in this world.
[ it's harsh, but she doesn't know any of these people well enough to have a heated emotional reaction. they need to rescue them, obviously, but she has distance here. if it were soujuurou, she knows she would be a lot angrier. if it were alice, aoko would worry more about the kidnapper's safety! ]
[ He relates, though it's not the same. It's why he doesn't say it. His lack of attachment is more God Things than just not knowing people. ]
then sounds like your cooler head might be needed if things pop off. if that "sacrifice" thing gets followed through that's what I'd expect anyways. we got some real hot tempers

a god of conflict naturally enjoys stuff like this
but don't worry. for what it's worth not thrilled it's OUR people taking the brunt of it here

starting to realize why mortals and gods don't speak very often.
