Week 3 Mini-Event

MINI-EVENT

Congratulations, you've won the lottery this fine execution day!

Though, perhaps it really isn't an execution day, given the kittybots don't seem to be rousing people to go to the sandbar yet again -- but you're given no peace, because four of you will be beset by an absolutely infernal beeping noise. It would be familiar, if anyone but Zelkov and Haruka had heard it before, but no one has.

And now you're the proud successors of auditory cue hell: the insistent noise will lead you all the way to Kingfisher's Retreat, pointing you towards the waterfall side of the island. As you get closer to the crystal pool, you may start noticing disturbed sand and dirt, foliage... Almost like something large and not particularly delicate crashed its way through the growth and the footpaths, shoving everything out of its way...

Hmm. Surely there's nothing amiss here! But you may want to make sure you have your weapons on hand and your eyes and ears peeled.

I'd rather die.

[As deadpan as his voice is, it's still edged with the tiniest tinge of amusement.]

[chosenwang]

Then behave and put your arm over my shoulder. [ He'll put his arm around him, trying to be careful not to crush him even further ]

[dancing_flames]

[This he will do! This isn't even the first time in the past two months that he's had to do this, so there will be no protests from him on that front.

And at least this time he's not bleeding everywhere, which is definitely a plus.]

[chosenwang]

[ Is all the bleeding on the inside?

He'll lead him out of the water and over to some dry rocks. ]

I'm assuming my dear wife might want to tend to you. [ A look over to Temenos where he's resting ] Just after he catches his breath.

[dancing_flames]

[Given that he kind of got a little squished there... probably, yeah. But he's doing all right enough to be able to limp over to the rocks with Wang Lu's help and then sit down, albeit rather heavily.]

Let him rest for a moment too. I don't plan on dying any time soon.

[chosenwang]

Normally I would offer to help you get those off, but I'll wait until we're ready for healing.

[ Take that as you wish. Once he's sure Shuda is good and situated, he will take off his outer robe, which is some what transparent, and roll it up to make some kind of pillow. Then he'll plop it behind Shuda's head ]

Can't have you blaming me for any discomfort you'll feel.

[dancing_flames]

[That gesture actually surprises him enough to throw him off balance a little, and he blinks for a moment.]

... thanks. And believe me, I've got a whole list of grievances from today, but none of them are addressed to you.

[Especially not when that makeshift pillow is much better than lying against actual rocks.]

[chosenwang]

Don't mention it.

[ At all. This is way too soft. ]

Don't try to move or anything.

[dancing_flames]

Don't worry, I don't plan on it.

[Now that the adrenaline is wearing off, this actually kind of hurts, ow.

This is also way too soft for him so you know what, that's fine. That sentence was applicable to both things here.]
