THE AURORA: REDUX


WHEN: Mid-month, for three days.
WHERE: Everywhere.

July brings warmer weather. The fog has lifted, and the daylight returned — but an odd kind of pressure lingers in the air, the kind that feels similar with oncoming storms but something still feels off about it all. Measurements and readings are erratic, with them often making little sense. It’s hard to predict just what might be coming, but sure enough something is coming.

Hold on a little longer, Enola told you. A storm is coming.

It comes quickly, the gathering of storm clouds. At first, it looks as if a kind of snowstorm is moving in, but there’s something else at play here. Within the grey, cloudy skies, there is a tell-tale sound of an Aurora mixed within those clouds.

And with it, in amongst the dark, the swirling colours. Greens, pinks and purples weaving through the clouds, almost mesmerising to watch. The air is alive with sound: static noise, cracks and pops: a storm and the Aurora mixed into one. For those who’ve been here long enough, it’s a worrying, unnerving sight. The storm rumbles with the low roar of distant thunder, growing ever closer. The electronics of the world begin to come alive, and in the static of it all — you begin to hear Enola’s voice even clearer than before.

After so much darkness, now there is so much light. A lightning storm — aurora colours mingling with the grey clouds, punctured with crackles of lightning. Something powerful and strange — flash forking across the skies, followed by booms of thunder.

The storm lasts three days, and even though her voice is soft — you hear it over all the noise, nestled gently in your ear.

“You're still here. It means something. This isn’t the end, I refuse to let it be the end. It can’t win. You won’t go into the Dark.” Enola tells you. ”I will make you more than what you are, more than what was stolen from you. This place will not be your end. I have to try. We have to try. Together. I showed some of you, once. I’ll show you again.”

She tells you to sleep. For some, they recognise this and realise what may end up happening. For others it feels like going out on a limb. But you sleep, and perhaps a dream may come to you.

COLD FUSION: The colours of the Aurora dance around you in your dreamscape. You dream of a great hall of ice: as if it had been carved into some great ridge of it. You walk through it, marvelling at the beauty of it — a blue gloom, echoing with each of your footsteps. But as you take one particular step, the ground cracks and collapses beneath you, sending you into dark, frozen waters. In seconds, the water freezes around you, encompassing you in thick ice, your entire body trapped within it. The coldness burns you, and you are stuck there — frozen in agony. The pain is immeasurable, your entire body crushed and searing from the ice. There is no escape, no reprieve.

A voice speaks to you, perhaps it is the voice of a stranger, perhaps it is the voice of someone you know: Do you know how you survive the cold?’ They ask you. You do not know, and you wait for the answer: ‘You become colder than it.

Your eyes close. You believe those words, you do. You must become colder than the cold itself. And so you will. Your breathing slows, your heart slows and the cold… it stops hurting, it doesn’t burn. The ice around you begins the crack.

When you awaken the first thing you realise is despite the temperature, you are completely cosy and warmed. You do not feel the slightest chill. It is perhaps only once you are around other than you truly notice the difference to you — you are cold to the touch, lacking the heat you once had. An understanding comes: you are at one with the cold, it will not beat you, it will not cause you agony. Winter is at peace within you: perfect Cold Fusion.

MOON TOUCHED: The colours of the Aurora dance around you in your dreamscape. You dream of running through the silent woods at night. The moon is full above you, the air is calm and still. Hunger draws you forward, everything is so sharp and vivid in your senses, even in this dreamscape. You hear the crispness of the snow beneath your feet, smell the scent of the pines on the air, feel how warm you are against the coldness around you.

The snuffling of a rabbit catches your attention, and you swiftly leap after it, jaws opening and closing around its neck as you capture it. You bite down hard, feeling the crunch of its bones as they break, the sweet coppery taste of blood filling your mouth and nose. You lift your head towards the stars, blood on your tongue. You realise you are not a person at all, but a beast on all fours: a wolf, content and filling your belly with meat.

You wonder, for a brief moment: were you ever a person at all?

You do not know the answer to the question. You do not seem to worry about such a thing but there’s a flash of warning on the air. Something you cannot quite place, but you know that you should not forget it.

When you awaken, you feel… different, somehow. Everything seems a little sharper, as if the world around you had been dull, or behind some pane of frosted glass. With it comes a strange balance of calmness and chaos, tameness and wildness, fear and bravery. You find yourself looking for the moon in the skies and when you finally find it, it hits you — this is what it means to be Moon Touched.

INTERLOPER’S SACRIFICE: The colours of the Aurora dance around you in your dreamscape and then fade into nothing. You dream of kneeling in a darkened, charred wood. You are not alone. In this dreamscape, you dream of a loss, or a time you have never felt more helpless in your life. Perhaps it is when someone you knew died before you, or you stood as someone was sick and injured and you were unable to do a thing. As you kneel, they are there with you: sick or dying or even dead in your arms. You cannot do anything but hold them, and the helplessness is overwhelming.

You look up and a woman in furs stands before you, her expression solemn. Enola herself. There are tears in her eyes, as if she shares the very pain you do: the loss, the grief, the hopelessness, the powerlessness. She approaches you and lowers herself to kneel in front of you and your companion, bracing your shoulders for a long, lingering moment. There are no words, none from neither of you.

Enola shifts slightly, leans forwards. She kisses your forehead, much like when a parent kisses their child: sweet and tender.

And then you feel it, as if you are set alight: an agonising pain that encompasses you whole — so painful you cannot even open your mouth to scream. You feel yourself growing weak, the corners of your vision blurring into black. It feels as if you might die from the pain, and you want for it to stop but it doesn’t.

Enola pulls away and you gasp, slumping in exhaustion, but still alive, somehow. You stare at her, sweating and clamouring for breath, and she offers you a sad smile. Never again. you feel the words inside of you. This time, it will be different. Better.

When you awaken, you can still feel the kiss upon your forehead — enough to make your fingers reach up to touch it, your entire body tingling a little. A small voice in the back of your mind whispers, reminding you as you find yourself looking down at your hands: never again. Never again, you tell yourself and the comprehension comes to you: you have chosen. This is what it means to be: this is your sacrifice. The Interloper’s Sacrifice.

NOTHING: The colours of the Aurora dance around you in your dreamscape, but only for a moment. The edges of your vision begin the blur with black, slowly closing in until everything goes dark and you fall into a deep, dreamless sleep. You awaken, and although you feel rested, as if the dreamless darkness has helped you feel a little more ready to take on the day — nothing else about you has changed.

PENSIVE LOOKOUT


WHEN: The month of July.
WHERE: Pensive Lookout Tower, Lakeside.

The Old Hunting Lodge is located in the southern-most area of Lakeside, and its surrounding area is generally considered no-go territory with the presence of the Forest Talkers. As June turned into July, the Forest Talker’s presence in the wilds of Lakeside has begun to grow again — but their efforts appear to be focused on sabotaging the efforts of Interlopers, Methuselah and Young Bill in hunting fresh game. If anything, it could mean that with attentions drawn away — perhaps the braver sorts of the Interlopers can explore the area a little more fully.

There’s little in terms of buildings of interest in this area. The wilderness is thick and deep here. Perhaps the odd ransacked cabin once belonging to a local may be stumbled across — its contents picked clean, presumably by the Forest Talkers. Many of these buildings will be completely inhabitable due to the damage done — with some cabins being razed to the ground.

However, on higher ground, with a good hike to access it, stands a watch tower.

These lookout towers could mean a number of things: a chance to access supplies that may have otherwise been forgotten about due to the hike to get up there, a better view of the surrounding area, and the possibility of a radio — given the sign of a radio transmitter that can be found blinking a feeble red on Aurora nights.

With the snow on the ground it’s a little more treacherous, but given the circumstances, anything’s worth a shot, right? Those who attempt the hike may fall foul to slips and trips along the steep slow to reach the tower, and should take care in the ascent. Even with the warmth of July, it’s difficult. One might hope this might make the place a decent outpost, if you think about it. Somewhere hard to reach, and with such a vantage point.

Reaching the tower and climbing it to its interior will it largely intact but a mess. Someone has lived here for some time. Interlopers will find no food here, but some useful tools that belonged to the lookout: binoculars, maps, a compass, an alidade. There is even a radio sat upon a desk, and with it — a journal.

The journal, Interlopers will find, belonged to a man named Sam Bouchard — the firewatcher for the season during the previous year, detailing the months of his arrival and ending in November last year. It is unknown what happened to Sam, but his journal will perhaps offer some insight and even some information.

A PEEK INSIDE


WHEN: The month of July.
WHERE: The Gas Station, Milton.


The Forest Talkers have a long history in the Northern Territories, long before Interlopers started arriving in Milton. Champions of nature, they have sought to put an end to the industries and tourism-related expansions in the Lakeside area, first peacefully and then… not-so-peacefully. But with the events known as the ‘The Flare’ last year, Forest Talkers have been… acting peculiarly, disturbingly, aggressively.

There are plenty of questions to be asked. But the Forest Talkers are difficult to communicate with. Previous attempts have ended up in aggression or being ignored entirely. And now, even with the events of the previous month coming to an end — game remains difficult to find, and Forest Talkers are keen on sabotaging any attempts of hunting made by Interlopers, Young Bill or Methuselah. And more importantly: what is the yawning grave?

It starts as mutterings between tired and disgruntled Interlopers. They need answers, and there’s got to be a way in trying to get some. They’re hungry and exhausted and so many of their numbers are now dead. Those mutterings grow, and soon enough a plan is put into place. A small group of Interlopers embark into Lakeside and wait.

Soon enough, it bears fruit. A man is captured, bound and blindfolded — quietly and secretly brought back to Milton to be held up in the unused Gas Station to be questioned. It is not the leader, but surely one of them is better than no one at all. He is injured, but not enough to kill him. It will prove challenging in trying to get answers out of him, but soon enough the Interlopers will get him to talk.

News of the Forest Talker in their midst will inevitably spread, as most things do in small communities. Secrets are hard to guard. It won’t be just those behind the kidnapping who might end up coming across the man being held in the Gas Station.

Anyone who goes to investigate will find the man sat on the floor in quiet contemplation. Attempts of conversation will be met with long, silent stares — holding your gaze for an uncomfortably long time. He will spurn any gestures of kindness: spit on the floor at Interloper’s feet, refuse any food offered — as if the man has chosen to starve himself in protest. He says nothing, at first.

But after some time, he will look into an Interloper’s eyes and utter something. A word. A phrase. It may be a name, or a place. It may be a specific thing an Interloper has read, or been spoken to by someone. Something that holds meaning to the Interloper. It may be the name of a loved one from home, or the last words ever spoken to you by a friend. Something the man shouldn’t know.

Whatever it is that he speaks to you, it is not something that will fill you with hope or fondness to remember — but quite the opposite. A reminder of something painful, of a loss, or some other thing that caused you misery. As if he had reached right inside your mind and plucked some painful part of your past from you and spoken it to the wind.

The Forest Talker smiles, and will say nothing else. The damage has already been done.


FAQs

THE AURORA: REDUX


1. The next three Aurora Feats are unlocked! Please see the following page for more information.

2. Aurora Feats are completely optional.

3. Interlopers will only receive ONE Aurora Feat. The only time this is available is this month. After July, players will have to wait for the next Feat round for another chance at an Aurora Feat.

4. This Aurora/storm will last a full three days, darkening the skies almost to night.

PENSIVE LOOKOUT


1. Interlopers who dwell in the lookout for the next Aurora will find the radio works, albeit poorly. They will be able to pick up the same broken morse code message.

2. There are no signs of blood/injury that befell Sam in the lookout. It appears he made good on what he wrote on in his journal and attempted to leave to get to Silverpoint.

A PEEK INSIDE


1. While only a small number was involved in the kidnapping itself, anyone can discover the fact there's a Forest Talker being held in Milton.

Jhey | a boatman & a spaceman

[personal profile] fidior 2024-07-09 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Jhey
Player Contact: pm or [plurk.com profile] horreur | I'm also hagfishs @ discord, but am rarely signed in. I will get back to things there, just more slowly!
Pacing: Running slow atm! I fell out of things pretty hard through June and am still working to get my traction creatively, so I plan to keep taking it pretty easy for the rest of the month and play catch-up with my ongoing threads / get some things wrapped. That said, I'd definitely be happy to pick up a couple new things for cr development & whatnot!



Character Name: Edward Little
Canon: The Terror
Aurora Feat: I'm still Undecided whether I want to give him something or leave him as Normal Nedward for life, and will probably wait to see what his close cr does before making any Final Decisions, buuuut I do find myself leaning towards Moon Touched so that he can become the sad dog he's always been at heart...

Event Ideas:
general — June was a huge month for Ned (derogatory), so my main focus is on the aftermath of those events! He shot and killed an NPC Interloper who was attacking Kate Marsh, attended the town meeting for judgement, and was horrified to find that the majority found him Not Guilty. He'll therefore be inflicting upon himself a variety-pack of punishments: doing physical labour around town, repairing buildings, doing any other kind of work needed, isolating himself, and taking less rations / actively keeping himself hungry. However, none of that is really going to be enough for him to feel adequately punished (which is where I'm thinking of utilising the Moon Touched feat... more deets on that below.)

— While Ned is going to be keeping up a distance, I'd still love any opportunities for follow-ups / aftermath potential. Anyone who might want to chat with him, who might be upset about the voting results or simply want to reach out, any talks about Being A Killer / all the ethical complexities / potential for him to open up a bit more about what he's so guilty about from back in his canon world / I'm down for it all. Canonically, this is a huge huge theme for him and is definitely going to have a permanent effect on his development for the rest of the game. He absolutely will not be able to forgive himself and couldn't be more miserable and heart-broken about all of it, so... fun times!

moon touched — So what I'm thinking here is that if I do give him a wolf form, Ned would absolutely see it as a punishment, not some sort of gift at all. He's been dreading being Touched by The Supernatural... since before game, and certainly after others here began to develop spooky powers, so this finally happening to him would definitely be a huge source of horror. Plus the fact that he would consider this wolf form "a beast within him" and a very literal representation of how he's no longer A Good Man... ya boy has so much baggage under all those layers of wool. Needless to say, he wouldn't be embracing it at all, but would accept it as the punishment he truly deserves.




Character Name: Konstantin Veshnyakov
Canon: Sputnik
Aurora Feat: N/A but he does come with a parasitic alien worm so that's at least, something

Event Ideas:
general — Like with Ned, June was a huge month for Kostya (derogatory!!) and he's definitely still reeling from all of that. His main thing was the fact that wildlife was becoming so scarce, and considering he's been able to avoid having to feed his parasitic alien its preferred diet (humans) by giving it animal blood / brains instead.... it was a pretty intense time for him. He also witnessed Kieren Walker kill & feed on someone in a manner that reminded him fully of how the alien eats and it definitely Got To Him. It's all been a reminder that His Time is coming, that he can't pretend to be the normal, charming, Hero Cosmonaut Commander forever... and that he's lost his identity completely. So you know, he's doing great!

— Inbetween all that, he's dealing with a budding Bisexual Awakening about his housemate, and realising feelings he has no idea how to deal with or properly identify, and might start freaking out about a little bit soon, but on the plus side... Vasiliy's extremely cute

— I'd love to explore June aftermath with him — Kostya kept pretty distant from most folks through it, so he definitely needs to check in with some of his cr, and maybe it could pave the way for some honest talks about some things? He's still being extremely cautious about what he reveals, but I think he's realising more and more that it's going to be necessary to tell more people the truth about his alien situation. Or just general chats / opportunities for him to slot into plans / fun beats for your character!

pensive lookout — Kostya won't be heading out to Lakeside, but his housemate Vasiliy Ardankin is — and Kostya's going to be pretty upset by it. This could also be a good opportunity for some of that cr catchup!

a peek inside — Kostya won't be participating in any of this directly, but Vasiliy (who is, unbeknownst to Kostya, a former NKVD interrogator) is going to be part of the Forest Talker interrogation, so I am down for any kind of fallout / aftermath of that, once it plays out!

i know ned will view it as a punishment and all, but if there's anything bigby can do to help that you might find interesting, i'm always willing to throw him at ned! please, ned, you don't have to be a sad dog... bigby can help you with the wolf deal.. :(

[personal profile] fidior 2024-07-12 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
I've officially decided to go through with wolf!Ned so absolutely here for all the fun Bigby potential!! I'm so glad he gets to be The Guru here for all these new woofs.... save them Bigby, Bigby save them....

I think Ned is going to try and hide/repress this for most of the month while he's self-punishing himself in other ways, then realise it's not enough and willingly allow himself to turn into a wolf at the end of the month.... get some TRUE punishment going on... just let me turn into a beast, I deserve this.. but he'll probably just get really overstimulated and scared by everything when that happens and freak out. So it could be fun to have him bump into Bigby or something around then... Ned, he put up a message literally advertising help, you could have come to him for this....
bigbaddy: (Default)

[personal profile] bigbaddy 2024-07-13 12:24 pm (UTC)(link)
HAHAHA NED... truly just dealing with this in the most pathetic way possible, this poor man!!!

but yes, i would definitely be up for that! ned's view of being turned into a wolf as a punishment will be.. weird to bigby for like obvious reasons.. he won't even find it offensive because he knows ned would probably die apologizing if he made the connection with how that sort of thinking would come across to bigby, but he'd just internally be like what's so bad about being a wolf!! please, ned, it's way less inconvenient than being a human! ned, you can pee anywhere you want!!!!

just let bigby help you once he runs into you panicking as a wolf, he cares about you.. you're his pal..

I know we're still working through our other thread (which I'm loving, btw), but I'd love to have Crozier and Little have a heart-to-heart about what's happened. I think they're starting on a parallel journey where they both are figuring out what it means to be a good person and how much of themselves they owe to other people.

Apologies for my slow butt lately, but oh my gosh same, it's hurting my heart in all the best ways and I know there's still lots more agony to come... SO much good sad food with all these cold boys ;~; I would love love love for them to have a heart-to-heart — Ned's recently told Wynonna that he feels his true punishment is that he's still living, wandering this place like a ghost, and knowing what suffering he's caused others. Boy does that sound familiar...! I love that he and Crozier actually have so much in common / all the themes of being The Last To Remain and the horrors that come from Bearing Witness ahhhh.

[personal profile] fidior 2024-08-04 01:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Returning to this to bat around thoughts on this beautiful and gut-wrenching thread — I was thinking maybe we could end it somehow soon, and then do a follow-up this month (or whenever your plate has room!) for some good heart-to-heart potential, if you like? Little would absolutely seek Crozier out again now that some time's passed to a) apologise, b) freak out about the fact he can turn into a wolf now.... also c) he killed a guy recently, Dad help he's sorry about everything and just needs to talk to you!! It could all lead to some really delicious talks :')))

[personal profile] goingtobeunwell 2024-08-05 02:04 am (UTC)(link)

GOSH IT'S BEEN SO GOOD

I think we can definitely wrap it up soon! And then I of course would love to have them talk after that - they have a lot to say to each other still, and uh Crozier definitely just dropped an additional bomb on Little there in that last tag.

I love that Little's a wolf now though. Big strong doggo!!! Very loyal! Wolves don't have to answer emails!!!

As I continue to full further and further behind sobsss. I've ended up putting Ned on hiatus for a month to take a little breather so I don't fall into Burn-Out Extreme, BUT I absolutely need this thread to happen and want to give it the proper attention it deserves, so if you'd be down to aim for this sometime in September, we could do that!! Ned slinking to find Crozier with his tail between his legs after like two months being unable to face what happened during the bad times....

Jopson like "Yo, Neddy. You know this wasn't your first kill, right? That was me. Remember? DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN YOU KILLED ME? WHEN YOU LEFT ME TO DIE? WHEN YOU LEFT ME IN THE TENT WITH THREE TINS OF FOOD I COULDN'T OPEN AND A RANDOM HUNGARIAN EXTRA? I assume he was dessert, but I don't know!"

Anyway, I really want this to come out one day and what better way than for Jopson to try to snap him out of this with some "tough love?"

Also check in with Sveta and Kostya!
fidior: — 𝐭𝐰𝐨𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐞 (Default)

[personal profile] fidior 2024-07-12 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
GOD he absolutely does feel responsible for Jop & co's deaths and all the complications of "even if I didn't directly kill them, I killed them", etc etc, so there is ABSOLUTELY so much potential for this... I love exploring these two and their messy messy relationship so much — they're getting to know each other but still barely know each other, they aren't exactly friends but they're like... something that's Bound Together by what happened, ahhh it's just all so good and sad....

Totally here for any and all Jopson Tough Love / all the complicated conversations!!! Jopson's defense for him at the trial was chef's kiss and Ned definitely hasn't stopped thinking about it. I love how like... Jop knows him / The Truth in a very particular way, it feels sooo on-point.

And yes please I love the friendship between these two so much! They definitely need to have some kind of catch-up. Kostya would be worried about her after June, so I could send him her way if you like / if she's still going to be hanging around Milton at all!

[personal profile] lieutenantsteward 2024-07-13 12:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I am so relieved to hear that honestly because Jopson always kind of toes the line between knowing and knowing "too much" which I don't want to do. But he definitely has opinions and he will be telling Ned those opinions very loudly.

Sveta needs to be checked on. She's usually in Milton!

Anytime you have space on your dance card, I would love to do more with these two and have the Doctor meet Konstantin for general '????' times. Though Konstantin sure has a high bar to hit, Wormy's such delightful company...

And mostly just for "save me a spot when ____" times, I would love to see how the Doctor and Ned mash up sometime.

Yes please!! I've so been looking forward to them finally bumping into each other properly and all of the inevitable fun of that little encounter. (Apologies for how slow I've been with our ongoing thread also, this summer is apparently just "the season of running on fumes" for me, but I'm enjoying it so much, it's so creepily cute... Wormy's new friend...)

I'd be happy to go ahead and start up a little thread for Kostya meeting The Doctor somewhere in town if you like, or if you prefer to wait until our other thread is wrapped up first, I don't mind! I've ended up taking on hardly any new things with him this month, so I have plenty of space for your boy c:

And YES I was actually just thinking about that recently and am absolutely down to see how those two go sometime, too! The Doctor's so delightful, I'd love to see how Ned does with him.

I am always happy to backtag however long so definitely no worries there! Also time is an illusion and an especially fickle beast in the summer I feel like so it's totally all good and happy to wrap it soon or keep it going, whichever is easiest for you. c:

And yes I'd love a thread for Kostya and the Doctor if you don't mind setting that up!

Will definitely look for a chance to see how Ned and the Doctor mash up together too, looking forward to it when we get a chance!

And here is a starter for the Doctor with Kostya very literally bumping into him....!! (Got a LITTLE WORDY THERE, but please feel free to let me know if anything needs adjusting, I totally don't mind at all ♥)

Kostya and Hornet should hang out. She will be going up to Lakeside to explore so she could always give him an update on what she found. She will not know what the radio is, however, so she left that behind.

I apologize for like the extremely late plotting comment, it's been a wild month but I'd love to continue our cr.

Absolutely no worries at all! I'm running on fumes lately and I've been slow as heck, but I'm totally down to do a thing, and I'd love for them to chat again and do some catching up!

Are you planning to top level this time around? If not, I could whip up a little starter for us!

I'm glad I'm not alone on the "running on fumes".

I did top level! If you'd like to comment on it, you can here or i can write a separate comment for him! Which ever way you'd like to go I am down.
