All the details you need are here, so read up on it. This didn't get mentioned before, but you can tag the cultists instead of killing them. Details on this are on a previous draft post. Using the scanners are optional!

There will be a thread for interacting with NPCs, but they may not all go up at once, so keep an eye out for them.

Note: A log for the events in the village will go up on the 21st, in time for the hurricane and droid incursion.

"....Not working, is it."

[herotypical]

"...What if I go back there?"

Didn't matter that there were no Shifters here. She was clinging to her consciousness, now that she had it. Complete oblivion was also preferable; however, it was that dangerous middle ground that she feared.

[all7seas]

"....What if you come into mine? My dreams?"

[herotypical]

"It's not exactly something I know for sure how to control, just...

Well. Being in an almost-coma has helped. In the past. I -- No. There could be bleed-through and..."

And she wasn't prepared to share the things swirling most avidly in her head. It needed to be safer. More secure.

"I'm not ready."

[all7seas]

"Then do what I do when it's a troubled night: think of the Pearl."

[herotypical]

"I've only seen her once." And that might as well have been a dream, too. "And I never even got to peek inside your cabin. You know that?"

[all7seas]

"Criminal." The pirate brushed a tangle of hair from her temple. There was blood in it. "Because I could have kept you very well entertained there."

[herotypical]

"...No thanks." Because, God? How much more entertaining had he done there? And that, after having learned about the other proposals. No. The fighting top had been much better. Unique.

[all7seas]

"How's this, then? You sleep. You hold my hand. And if you need me, you squeeze."

[herotypical]

"You're dead set on this, aren't you? Me sleeping."

[all7seas]

"Want you healthy. Healed. Happy. Joyful. Rested. Better.

Happy."

[herotypical]

"Jack..."

[all7seas]

"Mmmmm?"

"Just...love you. That's all. I love you and I'm glad I didn't lose you. In any way."

It was a long way away from a smile. But it was something. A modicum of progress.

[all7seas]

"I know." It was a shining part of his hope in Luceti, that love. "Love you, too. Lots. All my black heart."

[herotypical]

"I worried that maybe...it went too far? Work and romance should never mix and somehow -- there I go, mixing it. I meant everything I said, though. If you'd been there..."

If he'd been there, she likely wouldn't be here now. Not with the General as strong as he was.

[all7seas]

"Buffy? Shut it."

[herotypical]

"...Hey. Pathetically beaten up patient, here. That pretty much means I'm entitled to your politeness."

[all7seas]

"You will never ever be pathetic in my eyes, woman." Poor supplicant that he was. "Though.....mm. Beaten."

[herotypical]

"How bad does it look? Be honest."

[all7seas]

"You will also never not be the most beautiful woman I have ever seen." A beat. "Painful." He hated seeing her in pain. Any kind of pain.

[herotypical]

"Painful is accurate. I feel like I actually went ten scytheless rounds with a Turok-Han."

[all7seas]

"I want to kill him for it."

[herotypical]

Strength and purpose. Eerily, he'd told her that death is a gift. The echo had troubled her.

"You'd be wasting your time. I don't think the bastard is even penalized for dying."

[all7seas]

"Oh, it wouldn't be a waste. It'd do me some good.


But what's this? Not penalized and all? What did he say, love?"
