Welcome to Deda



So, you're dead. Sucks!

Except you might not feel dead—after what feels like a long brush with dreamless sleep, you wake up in a quaint hole: a coffin in an uncovered grave, blanketed in fog. Entombed with you are any personal items (unless they're trial evidence, sorry), and a strange feeling of... lightness? Whatever corruption was in your blood seems to have cleared away with your death, and your injuries are healed, besides any cool scars and lingering aches.

Once you make your way out, a quiet, verdant graveyard (literal) awaits you. You could take a look around the various locations, but the same fog that greeted you surrounds this place, keeping you from venturing too far outside of the town limits.

Still, you may as well get yourself situated. You're not done yet.




Welcome to the graveyard! Here's a quick primer:

You are dead. However, characters are healed of their critical injuries; they may keep any scars or lingering pains that you like. Additionally, they are no longer corrupted. The monstrous force inside you has subsided; this means characters will no longer have powers, etc.

● Setting ● The graveyard has the overall look and feel of a small New England town from the '90s; characters can travel any of the Graveyard Locations, fenced in by fog and forests. But the fog makes this place otherworldly, and strangely permeable. Maybe you can influence your surroundings?

● Living Watch ● Where there are screens, you can view the living side. This includes televisions at the bar, Heaven's Night, and in the apartment lobby—you may even spot a passing glimpse of them in a mirror or glass of water. Only public gatherings like mingles, trial, etc, can be seen and heard this way.

● Items ● Personal inventory transfers over to the graveyard, including items that may be stolen during trial. The only items that stay on the living side are ones that are voluntarily given away. Thursday victims will receive their items in their rooms on Sunday, after Execution. Those who arrive any other day will have their items in their grave with them.

● Injuries and Death ● Characters can still be injured and die here. While characters do not stay dead, please let the mods know if it does happen, so we can inform you of how it works.

● Audiences ● You can audience Death in person, but none of the other NPCs are currently available. You can ignore the note section and go to the apartment penthouse directly to visit, or meet him wherever.

● Effects and Events ● Weekly effects still hit the graveyard, and you may use items on the living unless otherwise noted. Mini-events will go up at the same time as their living counterparts. CYOAs are still available for our sweet deda.

● OOC Notes ● Alluding to the fact that the graveyard exists OOCly is okay, but please keep details of what it looks like, what happens here, plot, et cetera, to yourselves. Feel free to ask the mods if you're not sure about anything!

[ Yeah, he's here. He has been through it. They both have, but Aventurine is way more out of it. ]

[ don't know who else might be coming but assigns boothill being near the mailroom in the apartment building so he can hear nona!

once he hears that, he immediately books it towards the sound of her voice. the flash of red on their clothes makes him stagger before he catches himself and sprints even faster.

would have been great to have bandages or something before running here, but. once he arrives, he just starts clipping off his cape. ]


Fork me! What in the fudge happened to you both?!

[ Oh, Boothill. Recognition clears some of the daze from Aventurine's eyes, and he looks up from where he'd been leaning against poor Nona.

It takes him a second to find his voice, and when he speaks, he sounds hoarse. ]


... We went to the lighthouse.

... It wasn't great. But, um, we found something. Once Aventurine's patched up, Nehan should probably take a look at it?

The lighthouse?

[ boothill glances at it, but only for a moment. it just seems like a creepy lighthouse from the outside, but they've seen people on the living side emerging nowhere with gory wounds. apparently dying once doesn't absolve you from that. ]

This forkin' place... [ he tears long strips from his cape. ] We gotta stop this bleedin' for now. Then I'm gonna go find Nehan.

[ he'll show up to see them both whenever boothill goes to grab him. he'll also have him carry down some medical supplies, in case there's no time or manpower to make a hospital run.

[ kills you both

he'll usher aventurine to sit down so he can take a look at him, then gazes over at nona, deciding that she seems to be in better shape. ]


Show us your injuries and tell me what happened. [ he will naturally gravitate towards stemming the worst wounds, but this is very NO NONSENSE DOCTOR-Y TONE young lady ]

[YOU DID THIS TO US

she waves her hands]


I'm really not injured much! It's just a scratch. But... well, we fought, and I kind of stabbed him?

[personal profile] tactic 2024-06-28 07:02 pm (UTC)(link)
She had to.

[ EXCUSES HER BEHAVIOR

Anyway, he takes a seat. He's got a clean slash down his left arm and a deeper stab wound on his right upper arm. It was probably a clean stab once but then Aventurine had to go and dig his fingers into it.

And then some cuts from glass on his hands. ]

[ who would do this. jan you may keep or discard weird curse burns as much as you like, i am not here to stop you guys from your h/c ]

Kind of? [ this is definitely a stab. ] You got some good hits in.

[ don't just compliment her ]

You. [ aventurine. he will pass him some painkillers. ] Take these. We're going to clean out and patch the wounds, so you'll need them.

[THANKS NU AND ALSO NEHAN IG BUT NONA DOESN'T WANT TO BE GOOD AT STABBING

she will hover around also because i forgot we still haven't asked nehan about the rocks. obviously i do not expect you to respond during trial this is just before i forget.]

[ i literally fell asleep thinking oh fuck the rocks and then forgot again until this tag

Anyway, Aventurine will accept these painkillers and take some even though nothing can hurt him after what he's just experienced (edgy). ]


We found something at the lighthouse.

[ Looks over at Nona. ]

Well, I don't really know what to do with it, so if you want it, Nehan, you can have it! Just let us know if it starts brainwashing you.
