The Labyrinth of the Full Moon

With the thick mists upon them and people being hurtled between worlds, Union was certainly abuzz with rumors and concerns. Much had been tried, but nothing had managed to willfully bridge the gap between the world of dreams and the world of mortals. But on this night, a sense of anticipation was palpable. Something was going to happen. And, at the stroke of midnight, something did.

The moon, which had stood gibbous in the night sky, suddenly became full. Shining a gentle beam of light down onto the earth, its reflection shone clearly and brightly upon the nearby lake. And here it would stay. In the morning, no sun rose. The sky remained dark but the shine of the moon lit the city of Union in an eerie glow.

Those who travel to the lake shrine will find that where the moon shines, the waters have parted. A sturdy stone staircase descends into the depths of the lake, with moonlight shining upon it like a spotlight.

Those with the courage to enter will have to step into the darkness. Once their foot crosses the threshold they will find their world turned upside down as they are overtaken. When they awaken, they will find themselves besides some companions, perhaps known, perhaps not, and surrounded by a shimmering haze, an enormous maze of shifting walls and colors with no end in sight.

Welcome to the Labyrinth of the Full Moon.

[OOC: All plot logs for people in the Real World will occur here. Please make the first post with all the names of the people in your group in the subject line so people know where to post. Mod responses will come about once every 24 hours as long as at least one person has posted.

The group listings are here. We will not be running randomizers anymore, but you may still sign up with a full group of at least three if you can find one and tag in. Keep in mind though that the log may not be finished depending on when it is posted. You may also hop in an existing group as long as all existing group members give permission and the group is not full.]

Memories?

[You have her undivided attention, disembodied voice!]

[Ezreal on the other hand is going to jump away from the things like they were diseased]
incousinswithyou: (I'm obviously too good for you)

[she has to remind herself that extra knowledge is always useful, even if she has more important things (people) to look for.]

What do you mean?

[Because that's not passive aggressive at all!]

Oh...

Those were humans in the past. We've tried to learn from their mistakes, and walk side-by-side with pokemon, not oppress them like our ancestors did. What they did was wrong, undoubtedly. It was unjust in the highest degree.

But they weren't the only unjust players in that war.

[Yup, she said it. She's a bit surprised that she said it, and Lux swallows hard after the words basically fall out of her mouth. But she's going to stand by her statement.]

War for the sake of redemption is still war. Innocent lives were needlessly ended on both sides, pokemon and humans alike.

[Ezreal isn't one to talk about being mouthy to a god, so he just nods in agreement]
incousinswithyou: I can see your underwear at this angle (what a farcical allegory)

[personal profile] incousinswithyou 2014-11-01 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
[talk semantics all you like, but...]

Are we talking about memories or grudges here?

Is that why people began disappearing, to teach us a lesson about the past? I imagine you had something to do with it.

[personal profile] indy_wannabe 2014-11-01 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
And if that is the reason wouldn't it just be easier to, you know, tell us?
incousinswithyou: (why so serious)

[personal profile] incousinswithyou 2014-11-01 03:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[if it's just Union, then really, you're preaching to the choir. For the most part.

Though if it's been anything like last week's experiences, dreams could be a valid form of lecture. She sure as hell doesn't condone it, but if she can get to the motivations behind it...]

[What

Oh boy, okay, she can work with this.]


What happened? What did he do?

[personal profile] indy_wannabe 2014-11-02 07:51 am (UTC)(link)
Are you fucking kidding me?!
incousinswithyou: (too elegant for a facepalm)

[personal profile] incousinswithyou 2014-11-02 04:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[gods, Lux. Can't you control Ezreal? The world is going to end at this rate.

Michiru smiles, seemingly unperturbed.]


That is, it seems quite unusual, since you sound so rational and reasonable.

[yeah, no. Do the gods even do anything?]

[Oh hun, she understands butt-faced SO's. So. Much. Lux gives a knowing smile.

Aaaaaand we're gonna gloss over pokeball talk because those things creep her out. Although she's storing that tidbit in her mind, that these "gods" could be caught in pokeballs. Not for future use, but academically.]


Is there anything that we can do to help? I know that we're only human, after all, but there must be something that we can do to help patch things up between the two of you.

[Because honestly, this whole thing, while fun at times, has been a giant headache.]
indy_wannabe: (pic#7663708)

[personal profile] indy_wannabe 2014-11-03 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I'm sure there's something we can do to help end this whole... thing.
incousinswithyou: not that this is a new thing (I know something you don't)

[personal profile] incousinswithyou 2014-11-03 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
[...well, then. She knows whose side she's going to be on.

But unless this god wants to talk about how useless men are, Michiru is just going to nod supportively and smile.

Rock headed significant others, huh? Her smile definitely has a bit of genuine amusement thrown in.]
