make him go away make him go away make him go away
[Sniff… Sniff… SNIFF…
At first the DreamBerry displays a completely blank, dark screen. Then there’s the soft pitter-patter of rain on a small body, and slowly, gradually, a little girl in a plain white dress fades into view, her face buried in her hands in sorrow. She’s kneeling on the ground by the hole where Espoir Fountain used to stand. A small white rabbit nuzzles her knee pitifully. They're both equally drenched in their personal raincloud.]
My stitching...!
[Sniff. SNIFF. She’s choking and trembling through her fingers, but you can still catch her pathetic words through the wracking sobs.]
The monster! The monster stole it! A big scary toothy strong MONSTER. He dragged it down the hole with him into the nasty dirty dark tunnels and now my pretty cloth scene’s gonna get all dirty and smelly and yucky and gross! And I’m gonna lose my spot cuz I got my needle right here [she holds up a tiny sewing needle] and I tried to PRICK him with it but it didn’t work he just slobbered all over my hand and I had to find someplace to watch it cuz I’m all sticky!
I DON’T WANNA TOUCH HIM I CAN’T TOUCH HIM CUZ MAMA SAID NOT TO OR HE'LL HURT ME AND I’M--
[An ear-splitting ROAR from the hole interrupts her tirade. She curls up into a ball, her voice just above a quivering murmur.]
Someone has to go get it for me. You can't just let it get broken and dirty like that. It's-- It's a present... For... I'll give you pretty--
[There's a crash, another ROAR and the feed dissolves into static.]
((OOC: All right, guys, this marks the start of the Tunnels Event. The info post can be found here, linked twice for your benefit. Logs can now begin outside of this post, so feel free to start them at any time.
Precious the little bipolar ghost had something very special stolen from her by a big, terrible monster; an embroidery she was working on. A special treat may go to the first group who can find it for her. And who knows, Precious or the other ghosts may lurk the Tunnels and provide not-so-helpful advice for our adventurers.
This post is an Open Call, meaning that you may comment wherever you like. Every thread here is public and visible to the entire Somarium community. Start conversations with each other, get some postulating going amongst your characters. There are no guarantees, however, that Precious will respond to any of you.
Happy playing, folks!))
