004 - Lucid Dreaming
Lucid Dreaming
Event Info Pt.1 ▲ Event Info Pt.2 ▼ CommentsAs a final reminder, all characters will fall asleep for the full duration of this event whether you decide to take part or not. You may continue tagging threads that take place before the event, but everyone will fall asleep simultaneously.
Falling Asleep, Waking Up
The shift happens without warning, much like the first time people appeared in the world. Perhaps you remember what you were doing in the last moments before a strange feeling of exhaustion overwhelmed you - or perhaps you remember nothing at all. Whatever it may be, you've appeared somewhere new. A seemingly ordinary train station, if not for the bizarre walls of flesh blocking the only exits. The only path forward is down into the pulsating depths, a humid breeze pushing at your back.
There may be others here with you, or you may be alone. Could there be more people trapped in this strange place? You won't find them just by standing around.
Nightmares
The screeching of a distant train will echo through the tunnels on occasion, shadows flicking through the translucent flesh of the walls. Sometimes, however, instead of fading away the noise will only grow louder, closer, until it sounds like the train should be upon you. It never appears, but something else always will.
The train is a siren call for nightmares, and you're unfortunate enough to be their victim. The shadows turn alive, twisting and growing as they rise up from the ground and begin to transform. What form they take varies, but the shadows of the mind know the true fears of those who walk among them. Are you prepared to face the darkness?
Volcanic Panic
The shadows congeal at the edges of the floor, and soon after a hot orange glow begins to fill the room - molten lava is pooling in from the other end of the tunnel. It rolls slowly forward, devouring everything it touches with an unquenchable searing hunger, leaving behind only the charred bones of its victims... although, strangely, the tunnels themselves appear to be completely unharmed.
Outrunning the flow of lava shouldn't be a problem, but there seems to be no end to it. How long can you run from something that never stops? Or worse, what happens if you find yourself surrounded? You'll need to find a way to higher ground before that happens.
A Radiant Plague
The shadows rise up into familiar shapes, and at first glance it'd be easy to mistake them for people. They may even share the faces and voices of people you know, stumbling towards you with wide, open arms... and empty, glowing eyes filled with an orange light. Something smells sickly sweet, and it's only once they're close enough to grab you that they begin to attack.
These are not your friends, and they'll do whatever it takes to make you one of them instead. Unfortunately, it's not an experience you'll be able to survive. Your only hope is to fight back before the plague can take hold, lest you become another mindless husk that knows only to further spread the infection.
Trust No One, Not Even Yourself
The shadows stretch and fill the air, choking everything in a thick blanket of darkness... before dispersing just as quickly as they'd appeared. A few moments pass and nothing else seems to be happening. You must've gotten lucky this time!
... Or did you?
Surely it can't be that simple. Nothing else here has been, so something must have happened just now. It's only you and the person you're currently traveling with... but are you sure that's really them right now? How do you know they haven't been possessed by another nightmare, waiting until you let your guard down to stab you in the back? Should you interrogate them to be sure, or start with restraining them and ask questions later? Wouldn't it be better to just kill them before things get out of hand? The sooner you strike, the safer you'll be when their true form emerges.
Yes, that must be the real explanation. It has to be them that's been possessed by a nightmare. What else could it be?
Joker’s Wild
There’s no limit to what form the shadows can take. The world may have its own perception of fear, but your nightmares are something only you could understand. What darkness lurks in the depths of your heart?
no subject
but ren and leo gave me some randos so ✌️ that's probably your answer
it's Raihan, anyhow! if you don't know me, now you have the pleasure 🤭🤭
you gotta admit they're KIND of interesting
it's like this whole place is a living thing... never thought teeth could be so comfy tho
no subject
Also why the hell is Leo-kun giving away my number??? As if our phones would work outside this world! I haven't texted anyone in months!
[ so like, on one hand he's kind of relieved for this bit of normalcy in this fucked-up place, but it just had to be with some rando.....
well, could be worse. ]
Also also, how is teeth comfy
Are you that used to this place that you've gone loopy in the head too
no subject
maybe he wants more people to get to know you! more friends is always ideal, right?
especially when we're in a weird flesh maze
[ he doesn't know about this guy, but Raihan would much rather have allies he can rely on in a place like this rather than enemies or general apathy. friendly = good! ]
THAT'S THE THING!! i have no clue
like they're not plush or anything but they just have this nice natural seat to them
not my first choice in decor by a long shot lol but if it's all we've got we just have to go with the flow
no subject
But fine, I'll bite
Where are you at right now
My legs are fucking tired and I guess if sitting on teeth is the next best thing then I'll take it
no subject
but there's nothing saying we have to feed into the misery that's trying shove onto us 😬😬
we try to find a way out but we show the void that we're not gonna take any tauros shit from it, you know?
[ ever the positive thinker, Raihan is trying to find the good in being stuck inside of a subway tunnel system made of flesh. that has to count for something! ]
🤔
somewhere between the third and fourth floor down i think
all of these bloody walls look the same
but i'm hard to miss 😌 tall dark and good-looking guy chilling out in the shelter
[ in case Izumi needs a reminder of what he looks like, he sends another selfie. he's winking in this one (which is obviously the best part), but it also gives a good view of his surroundings. ]
no subject
I'm just a model, y'know? I'm not built for this kinda shit.
But whatever I'm omw
[ he'll just give one more cursory glance at raihan's surroundings on his phone (purposely covering the guy's face with his thumb while he's at it), and continues on his way. that panther girl did say that it's much safer on the higher levels... ]
Oi.
[ and here he is in record time. with his hand on his hip while panting slightly, he still has the presence of mind to maintain his good looks even when making his way here. ]
no subject
[ and he means that earnestly! when Izumi manages to find him, he's still lounged flat on the row of teeth-seats, scrolling through his Rotom Phone as it floats in front of his face. Rotom makes a sound and perks up to alert him when it sees Izumi coming, promoting him to rise into a proper sitting position. he's much more relaxed than his new company is, offering him a friendly wave. ]
Yo! I guess you're one I've been texting?
