housing hub: cabin [ week 3 ]

Cabin

housing

---

Home sweet home, or in your case, a dilapidated building. Of course, nothing is stopping you from finding shelter elsewhere, but at some point you must have stepped into this building or slept under its roof, so this is home; while it's not very plush, do you really want to risk sleeping outside?

There is also a small plaque on your mailbox with everyone's names engraved on it. Trying to deface it will result in more papercuts, for some reason. The names read:

Asa Mitaka, Ashlyn Banner, Aqua, Daan, Iwatooshi, Marian Hawke, Robin, Rondo

By your sleeping arrangements, there are chests to hold whatever items you opt to place in them, which cannot be publicly accessed like the rest of your house. Otherwise, guests are free to come and go or sleep over, though going over the maximum suggested occupancy will be uncomfortable and cramped. Guests will also be unable to access to this post. Characters are also free to stay at any of the other housing locations, with the same stipulations.

Feel free to use this post for any resident gatherings, updates, etc!

For your easy reference: A small, wooden cabin with only four bedrooms. The chipped wood is worn, often dusty at the crevices, and prone to creaking. The windows have a grimy film on them, masking the view from outside and within. The simplicity belies the occasional strange groan of floorboards, or moving shadows across the wall. A perpetual chill permeates the building at night, and anyone plagued by insomnia can sometimes see a dark figure watchfully peering into one of the windows before it vanishes. Each room has two rickety beds, and the cabin can sleep up to eight reasonably. A chest sitting at the end of the hallway has a few extra thread-bare blankets and four magically lit lanterns. Outside around the corner are two plain outhouses for those who need daily quiet time.

Out front, a large, wooden mailbox sitting on a sturdy pole. There is enough room for all deliveries for every individual assigned to this housing.

To the northeast, a stream curves south, making for prime pool party real-estate, or even a place to bathe. Just don’t swim after dark.

[ Waiting for you all in the mailbox are a few gifts! None of them marked, so hopefully none of you got duplicates or this'll be awkward. However, those who put in an order should know what they asked for—and they will be the only ones able to take their respective item from the pile. They include:

- One (1) whetstone.

Hope that hit that mail order serotonin for ya! ]

SETTINGS UPDATE

W3, monday

[recession]

[ There is now one case of beer. Take one if you want. Hawke, share. ]

[quirkwall]

[ DON'T CALL HER OUT LIKE THIS DAMB ]

W3, wednesday

[recession]

[ Hey guys I hope you all still actually gather every now and then. He's knocking on your doors and getting your attention. He'll show you all a neatly handwritten copy of a pretty long note. ]

I got something you all should probably take a look at.

—ter what happened today, I don't think you could call this place safe by any stretch of the imagination. We've seen it react now in nearly a hostile way to our presence, and I don't know how long we can stay. Even so, the fact that it exists at all is beyond my expectation.

I suspect some of them want to reach out and make contact with the others, to ease their grief. I understand. But on the other hand, the cult realizing that this place exists—that there might be any space, no matter how small, that they cannot observe—would be catastrophic. What little safety and advantage we do have would be forfeit, and the cult is likely to wipe the slate clean and start over. And in truth, I have no proof that there's a way back.

So, is it worth hoping that they can keep a secret? Perhaps it is cruel, but I want to err on the side of caution.

Thoughts? It's been suggested to me that it's probably better if this isn't widespread too much, and given this clause [ tapping the part talking about the cult ] I think that'd be wise.

[sonorant]

[ her brows furrow. ]

Of course, I'll keep it close, but...

By others, to ease their grief...?

[ what is this implying ]

[recession]

Peculiar, isn't it? The mention of the cult and wiping the slate clean, presumably in regards to the ritual, suggests it is directly related to us... and as it reads as something related to interpersonal connections and easing grief, I have an obvious first thought my mind jumps to, but...

Who knows?

[flameguard]

Oh!

[ INFO....! thank you daan. he will read it, brows knitting together. ]

...Some sort of connection with the heavens, or something like it...?

[ it's not impossible. fantasy logic... ]

Miss Kate and I were talking about the last one of these - she said it was probably a good idea for each household to be able to see them, so long as it was in private.

[recession]

Yep, that's why I knocked on your doors.

[ You got it in one bud. ]

I know one person with their names on the barn and haunted house each know about it. Dunno who else by this point in time, but it's a pretty decent spread?

[quirkwall]

[ did you at least provide hangover cures ser doctor. someone just squints at you blearily ]

It sounds like more problems are on the horizon.

[recession]

[ He has water? And there is bread. ]

Aren't there always, Ms. Hawke.

[halved]

[oh.]

... What's the source for this?

[recession]

And I quote, "I found it in the trash".

[ He won't say more than that but also gives her a meaningful look with raised brows. Obfuscation is at play so he didn't press. ]

[killies]

Some other dimension the cult doesn't know about...?

[recession]

It's possible. After all, we keep seeing new ones week after week, don't we?

[ if no one else claims this, hawke will make sure it's somewhere on a mantle for everyone to access.

her one (1) good deed for the day ]

[sonorant]

[ sorry to ari/hawke because i'm late

robin takes this.... after she is surprised by how honking it is. ]

w4, tuesday

[flameguard]

[ though he is not around to share it there's a new note to be shared with the cabin!

it's been copied in rondo's nice handwriting, and now sits to be read by all! yay!!! ]

—been monitoring everyone's conditions upon arrival, and after a month of consistent results, it seems safe to conclude this much: no one here has a connection to their monsters. They lose their power and forego the ability to grant themselves a wish, but in turn, can no longer be possessed and manipulated by the cult in such a way.

Could it have something to do with this place? Meanwhile, they've only been getting themselves into more trouble lately, which is a headache, but I can't discourage their efforts.

✉️ MAIL

[mygod]

[ There is some new mail in the mailbox!

Send an outgoing letter? ]

[flameguard]

[ if you'll excuse rondo he's just going to sit here on the ground with all of his letters and hug them to his chest and cry a little

and give off animal crossing flowers at the same time. I'm so glad. ]

w4, late weds

[quirkwall]

[ after yall have been bullied by your mirror selves and had time to read your mail and take care of whatever needs to be done, hawke rounds up the cabin gang for another round of info sharing. the paper she hands out in hawke's legitble but messy scrawl reads the following


"If I reached out, I knew it would extend itself toward me, and I would feel the brush of our savior...stretched toward Heaven!" ]

I got a interesting third of a message today. Had to go meet up with the other two people who held the rest of it and honestly, we've no idea what to make of this....scripture? Maker knows what this is supposed to be about. If anyone else got little requests to do so as well, I wanted to see if it makes a full message or not.

[flameguard]

[ ! ]

Oh! ... I have the very end - Miss Asa, Miss Robin and Miss Nina put together theirs, with mine at the very end. I think that Sir Ichiban is the one who put these together for us. Wasn't that clever?

[ flowers flowers flowers... that's so impressive... ]

It does sound like scripture, doesn't it? It must be important, if he went to such care to break it up so we could have it.

[quirkwall]

[ she was wondering if anyone would know who done did it ]

That's what Lavi suggested. Alfyn's going to scare up Pesto to see if this is anything familar or not.

Good on him to do it this way, though. Less likely we'd all get bashed across the head.
