Event Log - Total Recall

[lucetimods]

Who: You and you and mostly me and you
What: Everyone's been Shifted in their own way
When: A hero doesn't care if this event last a whole ten days
Where: Everyone can blaze a hero's trail
Summary: It's that special time when the Malnosso collect all their recent experiments and apply them all at once to measure effectiveness. Although invaluable as research, it tends to leave the subjects looking just a bit mad.
Rating: Rated H for HEROIC

So there is a mod post and it pretty much tells you EVERYTHING you need to know. This is a mass log for people to comment around on if they don't want to make posts. Or even if they want to make posts anyway. There will be at least one more of these later in the event! ENJOY!

You're pretty much here for the same reason the rest of us are. A bunch of creepy scientists dragged us all here to be part of some kind of big stupid science experiment.

[barelyevenfriendly]

Scientists? [You mean those silly people who stare at the sky all the time and measure things?] How can they make experiments out of me?

[ribbonbon]

[Pilouette here never passes up a chance to badmouth the Malnosso and this is no exception.]

I don't know exactly how they do it, but they do these things called "shifts" and they always do it just like, whenever they want without telling any of us because they're totally inconsiderate! And they never even tell us just what it is they're gonna do! And someone told me that those guys try to tell everybody that we just happen to end up in this world and they just like, pick us up, but I don't believe a word of it!

Sometimes if you're lucky, whatever dumb experiment is going on won't affect you, but a lot of the time...Bleagh. It's like, super awful.

[...]

... Really? [He's not believing you quite yet, Pili.] What are these "shifts", then?

[ribbonbon]

Well, they can be all kinds of things. Like I said, I don't know the exact details, but...stuff like turning a person into something else or making them do stuff they wouldn't normally do.

[She wants to give some more specific examples, but...the ones that come to mind are ones that involve her and that's embarrassing.]

[barelyevenfriendly]

[...

... No, no, he still doesn't believe you, he needs reason to believe something that ridiculous.]

And why exactly do they do that?

[ribbonbon]

[She shrugs.]

I don't know! If I did...well, I still probably wouldn't be able to do anything about it. As far as I know, they just do it because they're a bunch of creepy jerks!

[barelyevenfriendly]

But why you? [It's directed at everybody, not just her. But yes, it's pretty insulting the way he said it.]

[ribbonbon]

[She is definitely not liking that tone, but she's going to answer anyway.]

Who knows?
From what I've heard they just take anyone no matter who you are. In other words, just because these scientists take you, it doesn't mean you're like, special or whatever.

[barelyevenfriendly]

I'll say. [Yes, he's sort of forgetting that he counts in this group of people.]

Are... are you sure these are... "scientists"? [Because he's still having trouble believing that scientists can pull that off on anyone, let alone him.]

[ribbonbon]

Well...It's not like I've met them or anything. But some people have! I think! And they all say they're scientists! The kind of science they have here is like, totally super advanced and stuff!

It kind of has to be for them to stuff like this.

[She turns a little and motions to her wings.]

[barelyevenfriendly]

But, scientists can't kidnap people to another place and turn them into-

[Snort. He just saw her wings. Sorry, Pili, he thinks it's quite funny.] Wh... what are those?

[ribbonbon]

Um, they're like, wings? Obviously?

Also, I wouldn't laugh. If you're here, then like, you probably have them, too.

1/2

[barelyevenfriendly]

[Another snort.] Me? Have wings? They couldn't do that to me...

[And then he turns around...]

2/2

[barelyevenfriendly]

[Oh no. Oh... oh Dieu she's right!] Wh-what?! No! NO!

[He is now desperately putting his hands over them, as if making sure they are real, before pulling on them as if to get them off. Of course doing this is extremely painful so he's also screaming.]

[ribbonbon]

[That's not good. It's the opposite of good, it's terrible. Pils tries to grab one of his hands to keep him from possibly damaging his wings.]

Omigosh, no, don't do that! Stop stop stop stopstopstopstooop!! Don't mess with those! If they get messed up or broken, it's like, super bad, so be careful with them!

[barelyevenfriendly]

[Unfortunately, he's still pulling before what she's saying completely registers - Dieu, why does this hurt so much? - but he stops as soon as he figures it out. He responds to her with a slightly frustrated tone, exasperated from this whole thing.]

"Super bad" how?!
