DUNGEON LOG - TELOVIA MINES

The day dawns bright and early - the same as most every expedition. The only difference is that you'll need to take the teleportation pad to Lodestone as a starting point - the gliders and drones are already there. There's clouds on the horizon, though, so if you're going to take a glider and go, you'd better get going.

There's some new additions, though, to the usual group of androids seeing you off. Tau is checking over the drones ready to carry those who can't or won't use the gliders, and Muon is practicing opening and collapsing the wings of a glider with bright yellow sails. She grins at anyone who approaches, shooting them a thumbs up.

"Don't worry about getting lost or falling behind! As long as Tau's here, they'll keep us all together."

And with that bit of bright cheer, it's off towards the mountains you go...

----

From the air, the remains of the mining town are almost impossible to tell from any other part of the forest. The trees - especially the old ones - are much thinner, and that's really the only sign of what's below.

But Muon's bright yellow glider, leading the way, dips down into the treeline before landing in an open space, and anyone who isn't paying enough attention to follow will feel their glider being herded in the same direction by Tau's power - control not outright taken, but more of a nudge, like, hey buddy it's this way. The group lands just beyond the border of the Fissure - a tiny stable spot in whatever's left of this world.

And a good thing, too, because landing in the Fissure itself could prove quite difficult...
coagmentatio: to the bench i was on, backflipped off of it, gave me his number, and walked away.... (some guy just walked up)

[ The distress has him moving closer, carefully. He's managing to face her general direction, at least. ]

Were those... crystals?

[ He releases a tense breath and shakes his head. ]

It's definitely not the worst I've felt, but... cuts to the hands, in a place like this, might up the risk factor. I guess I should have at least been wearing gloves...
hairpincurves: (we're knocking at your door)

[personal profile] hairpincurves 2018-09-07 11:29 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, there was a pile of 'em.

[She's moving a bit closer.]

... I can use one of my Personas to heal you.
coagmentatio: surprisingly you weren't the only one there without pants (you went into taco bell without pants)

[personal profile] coagmentatio 2018-09-07 11:39 am (UTC)(link)
[ That has him going still for a moment, and it might be obvious he's having to take a moment to consider it...

Normally, he'd insist he'll be fine, wouldn't he? Yet, he'd never even considered doing that, at first, with her. A feeling of trust is still so much to take in, hence him needing a... moment, before finally nodding. ]


... Okay.
hairpincurves: (we came to break the silence)

[Her mask shimmers into existence (without the rest of the Joker outfit because, honestly, fuck that right now) and she gently takes one of Aiden's hands, closing her eyes.

... It's not completely necessary no, but it's... reassuring, for her.]
Isis... [She closes her eyes as her mask turns back into blue flame and reforms into Isis behind her. With a wave of the Persona's hand, the healing, gentle light of a Diarama starts settling on Aiden.]

This should do it, I think...
coagmentatio: if not, read this again. (i'll be there in 5 min)

[personal profile] coagmentatio 2018-09-07 12:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[ His expression softens at the gentleness of the spell, his fingers gently curling around Akira's hand. There's the hint of a smile as he nods, and she will be able to see that he's now almost completely healed up! ]

Based on the lack of pain, I'm guessing you managed to heal it all at least mostly.

[ Aiden nods. ]

Thank you.
hairpincurves: ('cuz for every broken promise)

[personal profile] hairpincurves 2018-09-07 01:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Want me to take another pass to get everything?
coagmentatio: (i wish facebook had a fuck off button)

[personal profile] coagmentatio 2018-09-07 02:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He shakes his head. ]

Save your energy, in case more healing is needed in the future for something more serious. In the meantime... how about more exploring?

I need more practice with walking around like this.
hairpincurves: ('cuz for every broken promise)

[personal profile] hairpincurves 2018-09-07 02:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm probably not going far into the mines, and I have plenty of coffee if I need a quick boost for that kind of energy.

[Still though, she'll acquiesce and shift a bit closer.]

More exploring sounds good at least.
coagmentatio: in the face with meat last night (just found out I slapped a vegan)

[personal profile] coagmentatio 2018-09-08 09:48 am (UTC)(link)
[ He gives her a small nod. ]

We can go as far as you're comfortable with. Are there any area you're especially curious about?
hairpincurves: ('cuz for every broken promise)

[personal profile] hairpincurves 2018-09-08 10:20 am (UTC)(link)
I think I heard someone talking about a cavern with a bunch of plants, but I don't know how deep in it actually is...
coagmentatio: (how did you steal an entire pie?)

[personal profile] coagmentatio 2018-09-22 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
[ He's nodding! ]

All right, then... Let's go check it out.
hairpincurves: (so look inside the mirror)

[personal profile] hairpincurves 2018-09-22 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
Alright! Let's stay close as we go.

[Said as she shuffles closer almost immediately.]
coagmentatio: what i mean by this so just answer yes or no. are 5 cows enough? (i don't really want to explain)

[personal profile] coagmentatio 2018-09-22 03:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He turns his head and nods. There's a tiny bit of hesitance, and then... ]

If you walk in front of me - on a safe path - I'll be able to follow. And I can- trust you to warn me in time of anything.
hairpincurves: (are you in the shadows?)

[personal profile] hairpincurves 2018-09-23 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
I could try that... I'm just... kind of worried since this place took my ability to balance away.
coagmentatio: does anyone know where I am? (this is a mass text)

[personal profile] coagmentatio 2018-09-24 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
[ That gets a small, sheepish smile. ]

Very well... I could keep a hand on one of your shoulders, if it would help.
hairpincurves: (are you in the shadows?)

[personal profile] hairpincurves 2018-09-24 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
That'd definitely help, yeah.

[She shuffles in front of him, though she's still a bit nervous.]
