catch-all open log!
Who: Anyone and everyone!
Where: On the beach, and various other places throughout the hub island
When: Day 80, and the next couple days after
Open/Closed: open log for hub shenanigans!
[This evening, someone has placed an old, rusted-over camp stove on the beach near the coven's row of huts--anyone examining it in detail will see that it's not operational at the moment, but that could potentially be changed, couldn't it? If someone was handy with mechanical things . . . .
Next to it is a crate (which, from the weight of it is empty) and pinned to that crate is a sheet of paper with a map on it, something like a much cruder, black-and-white version of this:

with the following key:
1 - crags. Contain snakes which may be poisonous. Watch out.
2 - ocean, going about one mile out from the coast.
3 - lagoon. Contains thick reeds (could be woven or shaped into tools) and frogs (edibility uncertain).
4 - abandoned campsite.
5 - orchard. Currently, trees are diseased and bare. Plant healer needed.
6 - abandoned house. A family used to live here, from the looks of it. Still contains some useful supplies.
And there should be a 7 north of base camp with the notation "graveyard. Graves unused." but the player forgot and is too lazy to go back and fix it right now. Observant individuals will note that the map looks like a more detailed version of one hanging on the door to a certain coven member's cabin, one that has a note on the bottom: "Have information? Ask for Jay."
Other than that, it's a quiet night on the hub island. We've been here for a couple days; maybe you're getting restless? Want to check out that ocean, or lagoon, or even those crags? Maybe just go door-to-door in the beach huts? Maybe you're sick of shrimp and looking for other things to eat . . . hopefully someone's got a fire going tonight, and thought to kill a boar . . . .
What are you doing tonight?]

That's true. I just don't get a kick out of the idea of doing their dirty work, if that's what it is.
[Anyway…]
What's your name?
no subject
Right now, we don't have many choices...but, it doesn't seem like we're being punished for not doing exactly what she wants. At the very least, we have that in our favor.
no subject
[His robot lion form was a tad distracting.]
If they do decide to start lording over us like that, they'll regret it.
no subject
no subject
[She shrugs.]
Thanks for the info. It's useful.
no subject
[He nods once.]
I can understand wanting to be loyal. But there is always a time when loyalty has to meet reality. If they don’t hold up to each other...it never ends well.
no subject
What reality? I would never have believed all this could be real. Being transported away by some magical force. Ending up here. [She motions around.] Part of me still doesn't believe it.
There are people who would defy everything to protect what they love, and there are people who do anything to make their own reality. Is that wrong?
no subject
It isn't wrong at all. [Blue eyes and a fierce look from under dark hair flashes across his thoughts. If it had been wrong, he wouldn't be so sure Voltron would be in good hands while he's gone.]
But that's not what I'm talking about. Whatever things were like in her world, Gennete is following faith. Her leader isn't keeping direct communication with her. She has little support yet is expected to convince others, or at least speak for her.
All she has is loyalty and faith. If the Qri turns out to be false...
no subject
Like I just said, the power is real.
We're here, and even though I'm not at my full strength, the power they gave me still works. It's reliable. Based on what you've told me, there's no reason for Gennete's faith to waver unless something goes very wrong.
If the Qri is evil, or if it turns out we're only being exploited, then that's a reality we prepare for. If Gennete's faith is a threat, then we'll deal with her. Whatever she believes doesn't scare me.
no subject
Hey, are you okay?
no subject
Fine. I have strong opinions.
no subject
[Accepting it is another story.]
We'll find a way back to where we belong. For now, whatever the Qri is. Let's do our best for the realities we want to make. You can count on me to help should you ever need it.
no subject
That's good to know.
[Still a bit of a cold response. She clears her throat.]
… I can watch your back, too, especially if you need any help investigating. And I don't care if it winds up being dangerous.
no subject
Because we still have places on this island we haven’t seen yet. Who knows what we’ll find.
no subject
We should go on an expedition sometime soon, then. There's no point in sitting around if there are things we can discover that could help us.
no subject
[He changes shape in a blink, and the lion stretches from claws to tail.]
The more time I spend on it. The better combat support I'll be.
no subject
[She turns and shows him the back of her hand, like half a wave.]
Good luck with that. I'll get in touch with you about that expedition.
