Let 'em say we're crazy, I don't care about that!

[lucetimods]

Who: Everyone!
What: The final day. Moonfall. Twenty-Four hours remain. How do you spend it?
When: The 30th, all day
Where: Anywhere
Summary: The last day. The end has come. The moon is coming down and piercing the barrier. Nothing can stop it.
Rating: It will vary.


Details are here. But here's a recap and expansion!

By the time morning hits Luceti, the Moon has begun to breach the barrier, noticeable by how the barrier will fluctuate about the Moon's face in strange ribbons of energy. The oceans and lakes begin to rage as they are caught by the Moon's gravity. The ground begins to quake in an unsettling way. Small and harmless tremors that will slowly intensify over the course of the day. With the Moon already partway through the barrier, it will be noticeable that it is not quite as large as the real Moon. Though quite vast, the Moon itself does is not quite the entire size of Luceti, but is large enough to span the entire village and more. The Moon's angered face does not cease for a moment, even as it becomes the only sight in the sky.

Yet it remains in the sky, slowly breaking through the barrier, and proving indestructible in spite of all that is thrown at it. In the evening it will begin to cause gravitational disturbances, drawing up debris and small objects into the air. When it finally reaches midnight, the bottom of the Moon will be one mile above Luceti. At that point, all will suddenly black out and know no more. What becomes of the Moon? Does Luceti go splat? Will CJ finally get his moon rocks? Stay tuned!

It depends on the wine, but I like this particular bottle.

[lostinmyway]

Can I try some?

[paladinlost]

Of course. Here you go.

[He holds out the bottle and a glass.]

[lostinmyway]

Thank you.

[She pours herself a glass. Last chance to take back a really bad decision!]

[paladinlost]

To our health and survival, then.

[He takes a sip.

...The poor, oblivious fool.]

[lostinmyway]

And our happiness!

[Grune drinks the wine down like water. Er.]

[paladinlost]

That too- Erm. Perhaps you should drink more slowly?

[What has he done?]

[lostinmyway]

[She looks into her now half-empty glass.]

Oh, do you think so?

[Something very, very bad.]

[paladinlost]

You need to take your time, if you wish to appreciate the taste.

[Bad enough for Latin chanting in the background?]

[lostinmyway]

Oh, is wine like tea?

[Maybe not quite that bad. Maybe.]

[paladinlost]

Not quite, but all drinks deserve to be appreciated properly.

[A shame. There's not enough ominous chanting around here.]

[lostinmyway]

Hmm.... That's true.

[She takes a much smaller sip this time.] It's very nice.

[paladinlost]

I'm glad you like it.

[And glad you're not chugging it anymore.]

[lostinmyway]

Thank you for sharing your favourite drink with me.

[That's very special.]

[paladinlost]

You're welcome. You'll have to share yours, someday.

[There will be a someday.]

[lostinmyway]

I will! I hope you enjoy it. [...Whatever it is.

There will be. Everything will turn out all right in the end.]

[paladinlost]

I've no doubt I will.

[...He thinks.]

[lostinmyway]

[Grune takes another (mercifully small) sip of her wine. She's very happy right now. She's glad she got to spend this special moment with Cecil. She's always going to treasure it.]

[paladinlost]

[Too bad this happy moment comes with a falling moon.]

...It's a shame we cannot watch the clouds today. Even stargazing will be impossible.

[lostinmyway]

Yes, that's too bad. I haven't been able to look at the stars for a little while now.

[Dhaos must be unhappy about that, too. He loves looking at the stars even more than she does.]

[paladinlost]

I usually enjoying watching the moon, but it's less pleasant when it covers the sky like this.

[lostinmyway]

It's not sharing very well, is it?

[Someone should teach it some manners.]

[paladinlost]

That face does have a certain greedy look.

[lostinmyway]

Yes, it doesn't look happy at all.

[paladinlost]

I'm not certain which would be worse: a moon that is angry at us, or a moon happy to be killing us.
