Day 346- Day 352: OPEN

Who: Everyone in the Bastion
Open: Open
When: 346-352
Where: The Bastion in general
What: This is the calm before the storm. Any last conversations with NPCs? Any last things to take care of? Do them here.
Format: action
Warnings: none so far


When you make a thread in this post, please put the names of the NPCs you want to respond in the header of the first comment.

As a note, this is also your last chance to make any changes that will affect how endgame begins. All things that help or hurt the Bastion residents will be tallied up on September 18th, and the final post will go up shortly after that. So if you want to catch the thief, form any alliances with other NPC groups, or anything else, now is the time to do it.

Not too much. Just... Thinking about what could be coming.

[Megaera reaches into a pocket, pulling out two bundles of cloth.]

If worst comes to worst and we lose the Bastion, I want to provide as many people as possible some tools to help them survive. Put together two things I'd like to pass you, in particular.

W-whoa... a gift for Ibuki?

[she draws back from the hug so Megaera actually can give her the things]

... w-wait, you really think terribad things might happen?
twinked_witch: (Wait what did you just do???)

[personal profile] twinked_witch 2015-09-22 08:26 pm (UTC)(link)
... I'm not sure. And that's why I'm worried. I'm no diviner, seeing the future isn't much help for me.

So, all I can do is plan.

[Megaera unfurls the two bundles, revealing a plain cloth cloak and a plain cloth backpack.]

Both magicked up in ways that'll be helpful for survival if things go belly-up. Though I'm pretty sure you'd find plenty of use for the backpack anyways. It's got some safety rules, though.
scary_music: (Too stressful!)

Uh oh!

Ibuki's bad at safety rules! Is Ibuki going to accidentally make something blow up...?

... just kidding!

Well, the good news is, unless you happen to find a Portable Hole someplace, it's not that catastrophic.

If the inside of the bag gets pierced, everything inside gets sucked out into a kind of non-space, so don't put anything sharp in it. If you put something alive in it, it'll suffocate pretty quickly, so don't do that either.

Other than that... Well, the bag will hold two-hundred fifty pounds of stuff without weighing more than it currently does, and it's bigger on the inside and out. The cloak's got a magic food-providing pocket and a flask that'll fill up to eight times a day with cold water or hot, sugared tea. Plus it'll keep you warm and dry, and can unfold into a tent on command.

So, yeah. Things to help you survive if things go wrong.
scary_music: (Ahaha...)

[personal profile] scary_music 2015-09-22 09:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Whoa...

... soo Ibuki better not put herself into it, or else she'll suffocate while stabbing the sides of the bag with her piercings!! Everything would go wrong!
twinked_witch: (Wait what did you just do???)

[personal profile] twinked_witch 2015-09-22 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
... Yeah, that'd be a pretty horrifying way to die.
scary_music: (Ahaha...)

[personal profile] scary_music 2015-09-22 09:47 pm (UTC)(link)
A-anyway, thanks for looking out for Ibuki, Meg-chan!

[Going for another hug]

[Megaera hugs Ibuki back.]

Yeah. It's got its dangers, but... If things go bad, it'll be really handy to have around. So.... Yeah. Just trying to look out for a few people.

I only had enough shards for five sets, plus one special tool for myself, though.
