Luceti Valley - The First Log

[lucetimods]

Who: Everyone
What: The start of a new experiment... or is it?
When: August 2nd - August 6th
Where: Luceti itself
Summary: Luceti has become an idyllic and peaceful 50s-esque village. The first few days are just business as usual, right?
Rating: Varies with thread. Please move explicit stuff to appointments post with appropriate warnings.

August 1st had seemed like an ordinary day in Luceti. But late in the evening, for those night owls who had not turned in yet, they were witness to strange fluctuations in the barrier. Beautiful, really, almost like Luceti had received its own 'Northern Lights', even though it seemed to come from the far east, across the ocean. This ominous light show lasted for all of fifteen minutes before it ceased all together. Skimming the ocean waters, a horde of cultists entered Luceti, cloaked by darkness. Upon reaching the entrance to the tunnels, their leader stepped inside and was followed one by one by his fellow cultists. When the last had entered, the tunnel entrance closed. Across the mountains, the entrance to the tunnels in the village did the same.

Midnight passed without incident, but by three in the morning, the change suddenly came. Minds were altered, forms were changed, and buildings sprang from nowhere.

Much later, on August 2nd, morning settled on a changed village, the new mayor made his way to his mansion with his pair of adorable dobermans at either side of him. The sun shined bright. It was a good day to be a Lucetian.

Note: There will be a stand alone log for the homecoming dance. There will be another log for the second stage of the event.

[Ah, Loki. Of all the things about Jim that he'd come to dislike, Loki was the bit he didn't completely hate. The little kid had spirit. Potential. So, so unlike the deadbeat father of his. Jack was in the middle of a phone call when Loki entered, but Jack was quick to wrap it up. It was hardly an important call, anyway. He leaned forward, fingers steeepled and his smile wide.]

Little Lucky, I can't wait to hear the good news.

[Well...that good news... Loki shifts uncomfortably.]

Loki, sir.

Unfortunately I am burdened with another kind of news. The more...bad kind.

[He chews his bottom lip.]

I have failed. But...do not fret, I am about to unleash the 'cheating-scheme' upon them.

[Jack drums his fingers, clearly less than impressed. He stares Loki down a little bit before he pushes away from his desk and stands. Casually he strolls towards the window and stares out at his car lot. His empire of steel.]

How many months have you had to break them up?

[Loki starts to count on his fingers. Jack gave him enough months, perhaps more months than he had fingers to count them on.]

I think 'enough' would be a sufficient answer. So I pick 'enough'.

My apologies.

[His shoulders slump a bit.]
