The Longest Day (Open to All)

Who: Open Log (All)
Where: Point-à-Tarte
Summary: The Longest Day
Warnings: N/A

"Do they ever stop partying? Probably not...I gotta say that's one thing Eddan has going for itself..."

A Festival for the Sunlight
Eddan prides itself in its many festivals. While the summer solstice doesn’t have much religious significance to the city, it’s surged back into popularity as a holiday partly due to the city’s curfew. More daylight means more time to be out and about and to party!

It’s for this reason that the rest of the week is a holiday for most of the city. Everywhere people look, the city is decorated in bright flowers and lights that light up even the darkest of night (although everyone is warned to stay inside regardless).

A music festival with rock and electronic concerts is being arranged in Point-à-Tarte's park. Many great local acts are scheduled to take the stage until sunset, though that won’t be enough for some. The party will move into bunkers and underground clubs once the sun goes down, with the pounding beat of the music lasting until dawn.

The Arrows Never Lie
However for the Awakened, they will soon notice something odd. Some of the festival goers around them will take on a different appearance if they don’t look at them directly. If that’s not enough for someone to notice, the red arrows that begin to appear over their heads with the same symbol from Applenet is a pretty big clue.

No one else seems to notice, however. Not even the people themselves.

However if an Awakened person gets closer to one of them, a disclaimer will appear on their phone.

"Don't overdo it, got it? If you shake their brain too much, it might be dangerous. But keep a close eye on them for me, won't ya? Don't give them multiple headaches! That's bad!"

[OOC: If Awakened speak with non-Awakened characters, their conversations may bring little bits of memory back to them. However, be careful! If they overload them with memories they might attract the attention of something they wouldn't want to. Let us know if that happens!]

I am doing my best. It's just...

[Jaune had been there, fighting side by side with him. He obviously knew that Alucard wasn't as human as he looked, but did not seem to care. So strange to find that reaction here in more than one person. Perhaps the situation they found themselves in overturned what really became important among all of them.

So maybe, just maybe, it would still be fine to confide in someone.

There was someone. A friend. He'd even helped me out that night. He's gone. I don't understand.

[John feels that is a pretty good summation of things. No one is "okay" or at least that seemed to be the general consensus. However, everyone was 'adjusting' or 'coping' in their own ways.

As for not caring, that stemmed a lot from Jaune not knowing who or what some of his friends were like before. This wasn't a bad thing, it just made him curious what kind of people were involved in all of this. Were there similarities or were they all different and just brought into this by chance? He had a lot of questions, but no idea how to start finding out answers or sometimes even how to ask.

Gone? Like...disappeared or missing?

He's just not there anymore. The worst part is that no one else seems to recognize it. Or rather, anyone who isn't Awakened doesn't seem to notice in the slightest.

[To just suddenly not exist anymore? Where did he even go? Get sent back to wherever he came from or did he turn into someone in a background of people that not even Alucard could recognize?]

Oh. That's...I think something similar happened to a friend of mine too. His brother texted me to warn me about it.

[Was it the same person, or were there more they needed to worry about]

Do you know Mako?

I think I might have spoken to him once. The person I was talking about was named Sion. He was an RA on one of the floors.

It doesn't make sense to me. How could they go through an Awakening and be fine in a fight and then just...be gone?

[personal profile] sociallyarcward 2017-07-04 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
That's two then. Sion. Mako. Not to mention those that faded out before the countdown reached zero...

[What made it happen? Was there a trigger they could watch out for or was it just a matter of chance?]

I don't have an answer for you. This sounds like something we'd have to ask that Luci guy for more details. He's made some off hand comments about it before I think.
draculabackwards: (oh really?)

I think there might be more that have vanished since the Awakening. Maybe this is exactly why there's more people now. Because even if we make it and we're successful, something must happen that makes them say "enough" and they're gone.

That's a good point. If our numbers deplete it would be difficult to fight those things as we did--it took us all night even with the numbers we DID have.

[Thankfully it hadn't appeared to be a nightly thing. In fact, as far as he could tell, it'd only happened the once so far and no one had been able to generate their persona or those abilities since.]

Although, if we can forget so easily...why did the app appear for us in the first place. I'm not sure we've figured that out either. I mean we eventually learned that we all had lives before this place, but how did the app know that or did the app trigger it somehow?

Someone saw potential in us that we might wake up. It cannot be entirely Luci's doing. How could one individual do so much themselves?

It's possible it might be some kind of ... ah group.

[personal profile] sociallyarcward 2017-07-07 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. I didn't think it was just him. A group would make more sense and sometimes it feels like Luci doesn't even know all the answers either.

[Especially now that Jaune was 'on the other side' compared to the newer 'members' of the app. He could see how it might look like Luci had a lot of the answers...but did he really? True, he tended to tease them a lot and be annoyingly vague, but was some of that for their own good? After all the newest of them were constantly expressing frustration at being in the dark and Jaune couldn't exactly blame them.]
