Day 1

The first sign is maybe different for all of you – the hard ground underneath you, the lack of a body next to you, or no blanket to pull over your shoulders when you reach for it. Either way, when you open your eyes you know for certain you aren’t in the castle.

It’s a little too quiet here, except for the sounds of people around you moving about. There is a strange, unreal quality about everything, as if were viewed through the grimy patina of an old piece of film or photograph and half-realized blurs of images and words seems to hang suspended in the air like solid smoke – there but not quite there.

The group seems to be at the edge of a dead forest, the trees dark and twisted and the ground swirling with mist. A path seems to lead into the depths, but the sky that way is cast with dark umber and hanging shadows that don’t seem terribly inviting.

Not far off, however, is a long stone bridge stretching over a chasm of nothingness and leading to what looks like a city. Far beyond the rooftops, there is the briefest glimmer of dazzling light, gone almost as soon as you see it.

((OOC: WAIT FOR SECTIONS PLEASE! Aaaaaand GO!))

WAKING UP | THE CITY

Well, they're not glued to us. It looks like the castle just took us out of our beds and put us someplace.

By the looks of it, we're either in the Dead Zone or in a pocket dimension or something. Or a combination of the two.

But we are- well, magically anyway! That's why no one loses their journal for too long!

Though that could be very true...any of those.

[He shrugs, wishing he had his coat so he could have a cigarette ... which actually gives him an idea.]

Try wishing for it, maybe. The journal, I mean.
save_the_souls: (...?)

[personal profile] save_the_souls 2012-06-06 06:39 am (UTC)(link)
Um...okay!

[He wishes for it! And...nothing]

Sorry, it didn't work.
hellshaped: (you don't see this cat?)

[personal profile] hellshaped 2012-06-07 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
I figured it wouldn't.

[He sighs and scratches at his chin, looking around.]

Great.
save_the_souls: (watching)

[personal profile] save_the_souls 2012-06-07 07:21 pm (UTC)(link)
I suppose we're on our own for now.
hellshaped: finally got rid of the artifacty original (working)

[personal profile] hellshaped 2012-06-07 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
It's not so bad. We can't play damsel in distress all the time. [He's kidding, but ... it's true. He's fine with figuring things out on his own.]

I guess we should head for the forest.
save_the_souls: (wtf gtfo Tyki!)

[personal profile] save_the_souls 2012-06-07 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey! I'm not a damsel! [HE LIKES FIGHTING ON HIS OWN. But he also knows how bad this could all be.]

Ah, right.
hellshaped: (literally linefacing)

[personal profile] hellshaped 2012-06-08 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[ALLEN, PLEASE ... Hellboy just sort of gives him a look!!] It was a figure of speech.
save_the_souls: (why god why)

[personal profile] save_the_souls 2012-06-09 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
Oh....

Ah, right! I know that! [Sheepish oh god so embarrassed forced laugh]
hellshaped: (looks down)

[personal profile] hellshaped 2012-06-09 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
[This is the type of person they're saddled with. Really ... SIGH oh well.]

It's fine. Let's just keep moving. The faster we go, the faster we'll find a way out.
save_the_souls: (a soul that needs saving)

[personal profile] save_the_souls 2012-06-12 02:50 am (UTC)(link)
[CAN IT HELLBOY!! ]

Right, of course!

Though...that might not happen until the castle lets us.
hellshaped: (empty)

[DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO]

It's worth a shot. We'll never know unless we try.
