FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE, MY FELLOW LUCETIANS

Who: EVERYONE
What: TRAUMA!
When: ALL THE TIME
Where: ANYWHERE
Summary: HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE TRAUMA. FREE FOR ALL IN THE SCARRING EXPERIENCES DEPARTMENT.
Rating: Gosh. I'm not sure. However, I suggest you hide your little'uns.

Basically, the purpose of this log is TRAUMA SPAM. If you didn't want to spam your flist with extra posts, or you wanted to post with more than one character -- or more than one character more than once! -- here is your place to be.

This will be a commentspam style log where you can thread start with your character hallucinating things. Whatever you wish it to be! It can even just be a more general thread start where they're not hallucinating anything -- yet. And each thread can get treated like a post, where that character's CR can react to the trauma going down!

If you still wish to actually post in your character's journal, you're of course totally allowed to do so. This is just here for funtiems and convenience for everyone who wanted a greater chance to post during this event! Feel free to use it anytime over the next few days, through Halloween, to do "posts" and threads with your characters.

Have at, guys!

[ooc: Okay, guys. For convenience sake, if you feel like tagging Noel and are kind of ":|" with the setting I chose, or would just prefer something different, let me know. I'm open to any scenario as long as it makes enough sense for her to be there. XD Otherwise--]

[The effects of the hallucinations have been slowly getting to Noel (http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/619349/arakune-bare_shoulders-black_thighhighs-blazblue-b)'s psyche. In some vain attempt to distract herself from it, she's gone out to take a short stroll within the village. There's little else she can do, though, besides taking in the creepy sights of the town and the sound of her own feet kicking up the dirt on the trail. Besides that... it's quiet.

~~Too quiet.~~]

[She'd be tempted at any time to loom out of a shadow and go Boo! at you, Noel, because trolling you is such fun. But you're not the only one these hallucinations are getting to - and thus far, the only reason she's been able to shut them out is because she knows it's not happening, it's been and done, but ...

...hearing your mother tell you she loves you before the gun goes off. Not her idea of a good time. So Nami's mood is kind of shot to pieces. And if her mood is like that, she shudders to think what Noel's been going through.

Therefore, your magical girl BFF will be waiting for you very obviously on the path ahead, Noel. No startling required.]

[Who knows? Maybe startling will cause some sort of terrible chain reaction. You never know with this place--but I digress.

Noel will continue down the path without noticing Nami for a while; off in another world, as usual. She knew that man she spoke to over the journals the other day was right in thinking something would turn up this week, but...

...Well. It could always be worse, right? The moment that comes to mind, she finally takes her eyes off the ground and notices her magical girl BFF in the distance.

Blink.] Nami?

Hey, Noel.

[Awkward silence, buuut after a second she gives a wan smile.] How are you holding up?

[She manages a smile of her own; a forced one, at that. It would obviously be a fib to say that the last day had been an enjoyable one, but Noel guesses the two of them can relate.] ...I've been fine. What about you?

Edited 2010-10-28 08:11 (UTC)

I've had better days. [Bluntly.] So have you.

...I was looking for you. Wanted to know if you maybe wanted to come to the bar for a bit? [Because drinking in good company sounds like a good idea, right now.]

Edited 2010-10-28 08:15 (UTC)

[Away from the creepy atmosphere? You bet.] The bar? Sure. That's not a bad idea.

[Well, it'll be just as creepy in there, she suspects, but at least it'll be creepy with good company and alcohol.] Then come on. [She'll just, you know. Divert their course just slightly to head barwards, trying to avoid looking at the pumpkins.]

[She won't say anything else as she moves to Nami's side as they work their way through the little dirt road. At least now, Noel doesn't feel so lonely. And with Nami, she almost feels like the likelihood of something going wrong has gone down a bit.

That's right--because it's Nami. ...]

Edited 2010-10-28 08:45 (UTC)

[That's right! It's Nami. Who cares a lot about you, Noel, so she's trying to make sure you don't get left alone right now; she knows how many jerks you know. It's Nami, who'll happily walk with you toward the bar, her own mood picking up a little as she goes, because things aren't so bad if you remember it's not real.

...it's Nami who has the oddest, almost cruel little smile on her face as she gives you a sideways glance.]

[Nothing is said, her only response being the sudden shock that lays over countenance. That smile is something she would never think to see from Nami... but on the other hand, it isn't something Noel doesn't recognize. She's seen it before, so many times, and it rings all the little warning bells in her head.

Right? She's... seen it before, somewhere. Months ago.

... But where?

On Nami, it's almost too unrecognizable for her to tell. Noel's mind is clouded.]

[She's..really not going to miss the shocked look. So Nami hesitates, and knows already that what's wrong is a stupid question, and instead she gives a much softer grin.]

You gonna be okay?

[--You gonna be okay?

...That snaps her out of it. Blinking again, she sees that whatever cruelty there was in that smile had vanished.

Was it just a hallucination?]

I... yeah. [Sounding a little blank there, as if she were distracted by something else.]

It's not real. Whatever it is. Maybe just...I don't know. [Yeah, she doesn't really know how to deal with this situation.] I'm right here, anyway. Just remember that.

[To the bar!]

[She says it's not real. ...ffff, y-yeah. Of course. This is all in her head; just images made to mess with her. So don't think any further than that, Noel.

She laughs nervously.] R-Right. You're right. All of these things we're seeing... it isn't real. It'll be okay.

[And she's not alone.

... Following in!]

[Well. That's fine. Nami will be determinedly cheerful as they go into the mostly deserted bar. ...you'd think all the creepiness and hallucinatory trauma was keeping people at home, or something.] Take a seat, I can get us some drinks. Want something alcoholic today? [God knows she does.]

[They can just serve their own drinks, man. No problem. ...but while something alcoholic may sound tempting to Nami--] I probably shouldn't, b-but thank you.

Edited 2010-10-28 09:45 (UTC)

That's okay, I remember last time. I'll get you some soda.

[Off she goes! And will return very shortly with drinks. Going Merry for her, and something fizzy and non-alcoholic for Noel 8|]

Thanks. [And now she waits. For the soda. 8|]

[Her step hitches very briefly on the way back-- pausing as if listening to a sudden sound-- but Nami comes back to the table still smiling firmly, putting both glasses down. Soda for you.]

Just, y'know. Any time you feel like switching to something harder, let me know.

[Noel doesn't fail to notice that particular move. She starts to get a little worried, and when Nami hands her the glass of soda she gives her a weak smile in thanks before it falters back into a concerned look.] Are you going to be okay?

Yeah. [Said flatly, but after taking a sip of her drink, there's that same wan smile.] I don't like it, but I know it's not real. Long as I remember that, it's fine.

[The way she's able to reassure herself that even with the hallucinations occurring all around her is pretty admirable and... something she can sort of to look up to, in Noel's opinion.]

That's... really strong of you, Nami.

[Grin.] Well, let's face it. Luceti already sucks- this is small change compared to some of the stuff we've been through.

Edited 2010-10-28 15:32 (UTC)

Though I guess we can't all be strong. Isn't that so, Lieutenant?
