in the wake of turmoil

What's Up?

Mafuyu and Aerith have hatched a plan to give Braphine's Chosen some time to relax and have fun together! And just in the nick of time...

Date and Location

Afternoon of Monday, October tth into October 8th
The Aquarium within the Office District

The sway of water

It's a normal morning for anyone who's managing to sleep a standard schedule- up until a mass text goes out, that is. Everyone will find the same thing from either Mafuyu or Aerith's username:

ONE NIGHT STAY-OVER AT THE LOCAL AQUARIUM, SCHEDULED MONDAY, OCTOBER SEVENTH!! All of Braphine's Chosen are invited to an exclusive event hosted at the aquarium where guests can spend the day taking tours and then sleep over in qualified areas. Dining will be provided, all we have to bring is ourselves, changes of clothes and pillows and blankets. (And yes, the floors will be extra clean.)

... Simple enough. And should you choose to attend, both your hostesses will be pleased to see you once it's time to head over.

As they said, the aquarium is largely empty save for the group, and it's definitely worth it. A serene song plays overhead while attendants give tours or explanations as needed. The variety of aquatic life is surprisingly vast as well, and spacious halls give way to plenty of opportunity to explore.

Come nightfall, certain rooms dim the lights but the tanks stay lit- or black lit as darker enclosures like the jellyfish hall and the octopus tanks remain- and only a few staff remain to keep an eye on things- so... stay on your best behavior. The two restaurants stay open- a regular fast food joint with kitschy island cabana theming, and a much more upscale lounge where Aerith plans on corralling the adults for fun this evening.

Once it's time for the age groups to split, Aerith will lead the adults to a pleasant lounge with more tanks, large couches or more private tables, and a view overlooking one of the main rooms of the aquarium- wave to the kids if they're there! Or don't. Bouquets of flowers are placed around the room, and it looks like Aerith has a few ideas already, though she won't stop anyone from going out to review the different sections again.

Contrasting Mafuyu, who is content to let the fellow teens do whatever- though if they do congregate, she's not really the social sort and will simply be content to enjoy the vibes. Even if you just want to take a nap somewhere, there's plenty of dark secluded areas to do so.

Out of character!

This log is for an ic sleepover hosted at the aquarium! All characters are invited but attendance is not mandatory. That said, there are still staff members ready to boot any troublemakers out. We wanted to keep the types of displays vague to give everyone creative freedom, and characters are welcome to flit about between groups as they desire, be it to check in or to to snoop or whatever. As discussed with the mods, this does count as an open event and can be used for rewards. Thank you all for your interest!

I have been delimbed no less than three times, I once helped kidnap the bride at a wedding, I have set a god on fire.

[ Sunrise. Sunrise, ]

[goei]

I mean, you still got all yer limbs so that ones' gotta be the lie, right???

[cleansewithfire]

It is not.

[ Sunrise. ]

[goei]

Wait, but how'd you get 'em back on, then???

[cleansewithfire]

They get sewn back on.

[ Obviously??? ]

[goei]

Ain't it more complicated than that??? What about the like, bone and muscles and stuff!?

[cleansewithfire]

[ Considering this... ]

I cannot say I fully understand how it works, but this body handles it somehow.

[goei]

[Huh.....]

Y'know. You keep sayin' things that makes it sound like there's something different about yer body, Sunrise.

[cleansewithfire]

What do you mean?

[ Though it is true that as far as Sunrise is concerned, it is different. ]

[goei]

I dunno! Just, are you a regular person or not!

[cleansewithfire]

[ Bluntly: ]

I am not.

[goei]

[Well. If we're being blunt.]

What the hell are you, then.

[cleansewithfire]

I believe the term most people would know is a "zombie".

[goei]

Oh! Like Frankenstein!

["It's Frankenstein's Monster" Not in FGO it isn't.]

[cleansewithfire]

Who is that?

[goei]

Another one of the heroic spirits Fujimaru's summoned. She's this girl some scientist put together with dead people's body parts.

[cleansewithfire]

[ There this pause that could be read as Sunrise trying to decide how to react to this. ]

...I see. My situation is something like that, though I am mostly one person's body.

[goei]

[Izou isn't even that thrown off by this information. Actually... a lot of things make sense now.]

You and her both kinda got a weird temperament so I guess that explains it, maybe? Cept you don't go nuts the way she does.

[beautifulknight]

It's the second one!

[ Argenti declares suddenly and confidently.

...

He doesn't know if this is true. ]

[cleansewithfire]

It is not. I did this a little before I arrived here.

[ Sunrise,,, ]

[beautifulknight]

[ HELP he looks COMPLETELY SHOCKED, HELLO?? ]

...I trust you had good cause?

[cleansewithfire]

[ Sunrise, looking at him as if to ask "is it so shocking?" ]

I would say the bride asking us for help because she did not want to get married is good cause.

[beautifulknight]

[ Sunrise, why are you like this-

But the clarification does help. ]

Yes, that's rather acceptable. Especially since I assume she had nowhere else to turn towards.

[cleansewithfire]

I think she thought we would have been the most discreet method.

[ ...It did not turn out nearly as discreet as she probably hoped for. ]

[beautifulknight]

When someone has little choice in methods...well, they can certainly feel like that is the best, subtle choice.

In the end, it did manage to work out though, right?

[ Even if it sure doesn't sound discreet to him... ]
