Week 57

Well--ah ha ha rather spooky isn't it, lately? I do so hate this time of year. I really do. I would rather hide in the villa, if you must know, though I do get ridiculously dehydrated and the...the beings seem more than willing to go further inland and even to protected spaces!

Well--the fact that the villa is no more certainly doesn't help and my mistress... well she is beside herself. I don't know why except that she was touched by one of the...beings and now won't stop screaming.

It's very unsettling.

This humble Meep is quite properly terrified.

There ah...also seems to be...something bubbling out of the sea. I can't say for sure what it is but it's quite massive and wreathed in black mist. It may even be the source of it. I'm unsure. I don't want to go near it. In fact if I could go to one of your worlds, I almost think I would prefer it. This soft fragile Meep doesn't do well with nightmares. Or terror of any sort.

I wish the mistress hadn't meddled. I surely do. But now that she has well--

Let's hope the consequences end at this.

I don't think my constitution can bear it otherwise.

At any rate I am here for questions as long as I can stand it.

You say this black mast is the source of this madness? Then what do we do to be rid of it?
forhylia: (The First Hero)

[personal profile] forhylia 2014-10-26 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
That is a problem... There is simply no getting through to her?

Thank you for your information, regardless.

[personal profile] forhylia 2014-10-26 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Is it the same madness that overtakes the rest of us? Almost like a living nightmare?

We know that there is a source. That alone is better than nothing.
forhylia: (pity)

[personal profile] forhylia 2014-10-27 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
I... have yet to be able to "wake" from mine, if that is what you are asking.

It is like a manifestation of something that has haunted my sleep for years. It does nothing but wait and watch me. It is here, before my eyes, as I speak.

What the hell did you do?!
yourotherleft: (shit the marines)

[personal profile] yourotherleft 2014-10-26 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I ain't takin' it out on you, I'm just pissed because my crew is losing their damn minds and now you're tellin' me something covered in that shitty black mist is rising up out of the sea?

If you guys made this worse, I swear you're gonna have more enemies than you did before.
yourotherleft: (bold and badass)

[personal profile] yourotherleft 2014-10-26 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Tea? Buddy, there isn't enough rum on this ship to deal with what's going on.

We can handle real danger, it would be nice if we got more than just an 'oops' as a warning.

[personal profile] thetruehistorian 2014-10-26 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Actually, I'm quite curious what was understood and what-

[Robin clears her throat. That fire probably isn't real.]

... What precisely this oops might entail.
yourotherleft: (moustache)

[personal profile] yourotherleft 2014-10-26 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Go ahead, Robin. You're better at cracking tough nuts than I am.
thetruehistorian: (<.<)

Voice;

[personal profile] thetruehistorian 2014-10-26 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
It isn't about cracking a tough nut, as it were. It's simply doing what we can to learn the nature of things that have happened and can no longer be helped, so that we can better face the present situation.

I meant getting around his ramblings, but you're right either way.
thetruehistorian: (u r such a bad person lol)

[personal profile] thetruehistorian 2014-10-26 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
If you wouldn't mind explaining a bit more about what exactly happened, it may- ah!

[There's the sound of Robin smacking the book several times. A few seconds after the hitting stops, Robin clears her throat.]

It may help us understand how to face the ghosts and... other things... we are now experiencing as a result of your Mistress's tinkering.
thetruehistorian: (say again?)

[personal profile] thetruehistorian 2014-10-27 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
Am I one of them, I wonder?

[Her tone is teasing, but curious.]

It sounds like your mistress took a big risk on our behalf. Do you know of a way to shed a little light on this creature that may or may not be directly connected with Davy Jones through some means? Light tends to vanquish darkness, or at least confine it.
thetruehistorian: (elementary)

[personal profile] thetruehistorian 2014-10-27 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
Does the creature have a specific location? If it's stronger in certain areas, perhaps those less inclined to face a creature such as you described might appreciate a head's up.

She's always screamin' 'bout somethin', far as I can tell. Worst we got is, uh. There's bigass holes in the ships an' we're sailin' in the sky.

[Untrue, but not exactly a lie- he just thinks they are.]

But y' know, if y' ain't 'fraid a heights an' yer pretty good 'bout not trippin' over yerself y' can come on over. Ain't doin' too bad 'round here, if y' need somewhere safe t' harbor.

[personal profile] om_nom_namur 2014-10-26 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Hell if I know! Jus' woke up with wind screamin' 'round my room an' found myself hangin' over a bigass hole! Nakama keep fallin' through 'em like they don't even give a shit, then awhile later they'll be back on the ship somehow. Makes no damn sense, an' no one believes me 'cept Marco but I half think he's playin' me.

[personal profile] om_nom_namur 2014-10-26 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Ain't smart 'nuff for that kind a shit, Meep, c'mon! Like I got the power t' make shit happen jus' with my head.

[Though... maybe there's a truth to that. Nothing's truly impossible when you've got a strong enough Will, but...]

This's like, opposite a my Will. Maybe one a the birdbrains wanted t' fly 'gain or some shit. Maybe I'll ask 'em, tell 'em t' knock it the hell off. Thanks, Meep!

I was wondering who was responsible for that creature, if anyone at all.

I was speaking of the mist-thing, assuming it is a creature and not just some sort of

Other thing.

Feel free to explain these beings.


[And let's take this topic as far away from unpleasant memories as possible.]

It is an option. Far be it from me to try and comprehend such things.

[Oh, how wonderful. More occult occurrences are just what he needs and wants in his life.]

Tell me about your Mistress.
aphatos: ({emily} grew up hard grew up right)

[personal profile] aphatos 2014-10-27 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
That will suffice. I understand the sentiment well enough.

Can't you strengthen your constitution and do something?
