2nd Performance | Well that sucked

[Video]

[Cerebella's video feed pops on to an image of the young lady rubbing her forehead. Displeased isn't the word for how she looks, just far less cheery than she usually is. It seems she's found herself a light to sit in, as well.]

Okay, I'm sure everyone else but me probably already knew this...but...don't lose your bracelet. It really sucks.

[She pauses for a moment, seemingly to gather her thoughts.]

I was going to ask if I missed anything important...but I guess the answer is yes. Would anyone out there like to inform a gal as to just what is going on around here? I literally had to make a run for it.

If anyone needs my help, I'll help...but if not is there somewhere I can just hide out until this is over? It's really not very much fun at all.

[Cerebella's attention is diverted for a moment, before she just casually shuts off the video feed.]

Come to the Citadel. It's safe enough here.

[Video]

[with_the_big_top]

Don't get me wrong, I'm not being a coward! Like I said, I'll help.

But...uh...where exactly is the Citadel?

Voice

[magatama_no_amaterasu]

I said safe enough, not completely safe.

[And here Maya gives directions, which the mun thinks is to the Heimdall district, but the ooc Citadel page doesn't say WHERE it is at.]

[with_the_big_top]

[Handwaving is our most powerful weapon.]

Oh, okay. Um...before I go out there...is there anything I should know to, you know, not die?

I may not be a coward but I'm really not interested in dying.

[magatama_no_amaterasu]

I suggest not letting them catch you. Beheading seems to work well enough.

[with_the_big_top]

Well, that much I can do!

Are you there too?

[magatama_no_amaterasu]

Yes. Are you coming?

[She looks over her shoulder at something, and Cerebella got to see the nodachi Maya always has covered, out of the bag and ready to go. It's gorgeous, btw.]

They don't like light. Keep one with you and you should be all right, but if you have to fight, they can't be hurt until you get rid of the layer of darkness on them. For that you'll need either a really concentrated light or a strong one.

There's other safe places besides the Citadel -- the Arena in Thor, the library in Odin, the Clinic in Heimdall and any of the Welcome Halls.

[with_the_big_top]

Oh, I remember you! I guess it's a bad time to apologize for not showing up to the festival...but there it is.

I guess that's also why I couldn't seem to hurt any of them. People say you should always have a flashlight around, but I guess I never really know how important it was.

[holmes_fanatic]

Kind of low on the list, I agree! It's good to know you're all right!

Let me guess -you don't have any sort of light now?

[with_the_big_top]

Well...there's a light on in here. My good friend told me I should go to the Citadel.

[Yes, poor Maya is already seen as a "good friend."]

[holmes_fanatic]

If you don't have a light to take with you, you should stay where you are until daylight. The things in the dark can't be injured unless you first use a light to get rid of the darkness protecting them.

There's too many of them put there to chance it.

[with_the_big_top]

Well...what little time I spent outside I saw a couple of lights go out. Kind of worried that's going to happen in here, too.

I think I'm gonna have to make a break for it.

[kd_0079]

[ He was a little busy at the moment. You know, beating up whatever he ran across, so the voice sounded exhausted. ]

If you can't fight, stay inside in your welcome hall. They won't go there.

[ voice ]

[with_the_big_top]

I can fight just fine, you know!

[ voice ]

[kd_0079]

It's dangerous, I'm trying to keep you safe, dammit!

[with_the_big_top]

Well aren't you sweet!

I'm not in a welcome hall, so I think I'm still going to have to go out there again.

[kd_0079]

Hmph. Just try to get somewhere fast.

...And let me know if you need me to get to where you are, okay?

[with_the_big_top]

[Cerebella gives K' another "oh you're so sweet" smile, though spares him from saying it out loud.]

I'll certainly call you first if I need a hero!

[selfestheim]

Yeah, I've heard.

There are safehouses set up all around the city. Mostly the big areas, like the welcome halls and the library. Make sure you have a light with you if you're outside..

[with_the_big_top]

That's my problem, I kind of just hid in here and I'm stuck without anything to take out there.

Would a candle work?

[selfestheim]

I think so. You might want to be careful with it, though... those are more fragile than flashlights.

[with_the_big_top]

Well, yea, plus you can accidentally put out the flame on a candle!

I don't think one of those is even worth my time. I'm probably just gonna have to make a break for it. Despite how I look I move pretty well, you know!

[selfestheim]

You're going to go without any protection?

[GIRL U CRAZY]

[with_the_big_top]

I don't have much of a choice.

I move pretty well, so I imagine I can stay out of the clutches of evil monsters well enough.

Hopefully.
