A Twisted Rumor


It's the day after the Fallen Star Meeting regarding the recent rumor. As morning brightens the city's night, stories are making their way from the bottom level to the top.


"The cherry blossom tree isn't going to hurt us, is it? It looks so scary."


For those who have learned the truth about rumors, this may especially distressing to hear. There's no time to wait: If anything is going to be done to save the tree's spirit, it must be done now.


The current plan is to address the tree spirit's wish to be remembered and acknowledged by holding a picnic by the lonely cherry blossom tree. Fallen Stars hope to reenact the lively Reblooming parties that had been happening on the upper levels all month. This tree, though the origin of that tradition, exists at the bottom level of Starsand City: Where spirits and kami are still feared. The hope is that this party will soothe the raging spirit and bring it peace... and, ideally, bring back all of the people who have recently gone missing.


But the meeting also ended on a note of caution. If the spirit will not peacefully give up the missing people, then more drastic measures may need to be taken. And... Spoiler alert, but this log is titled tree FIGHT.

Timeline of Events
This log will operate a bit different from normal! It's also an experiment, so if it doesn't work then apologies in advanced! In order to maintain an easy-to-follow timeline of events, there will be a top-level for each stage of the encounter. As the encounter progresses, new top-levels will be added to reflect each stage of the Rumor.


Character top-levels are still welcome, but please try to use the top-levels for time sensitive threads. Threadjacking is welcomed & encouraged, though please be respectful of one another. And of course, make use of the feedback section!


Backtagging is also still welcome. Event stages will be staggered over the course of the next week & past threads still have time to make an impact. Please don't feel rushed!

    [Tau couldn't help but giggle a bit at her brother's antics.]

    I am...used to functioning on...little to no sleep. It will be fine...probably...

    [She realizes that that probably doesn't sound very reassuring.]

    If I start struggling...I will fall back...[She yawns again.]I am better at mid-range fighting anyway...Besides...I am still hoping that this will all end...with the picnic...

    Tau...

    [He wants to say something to scold her. Should he offer to let her rest? Tell her to stay out of any battle entirely? But then, even if he did... It's not like he has the right to scold her. She's Yuuto's sister, not his. Whatever game they place right now is a warm charade. He doesn't want to be as comfortable caring about Tau as he is.

    Dimitri sighs.]


    If that's what you think is best. But don't get hurt. Satou-san will scold me if I stand by while you get hurt.
    veileddreamer: (oh)

    [personal profile] veileddreamer 2022-05-28 03:20 pm (UTC)(link)
    I have no intention of getting hurt. Do not worry.

    [She's glad that Dimitri seems to be understanding of her want to help. She was a little worried that she would be sent back home.]

    Besides...I doubt you will simply be standing if it comes down to a fight...You will be busy...

    Ahaha. It's not about intention when it comes to getting hurt, but I'm glad you aren't going to be reckless.

    [He wishes he had the authority to send her home, honestly... But he reasons that, if nothing else, Tau's presence will prevent Yuuto from being an absolute fool.

    Dimitri reaches out to pat her head.]


    Let's do a flawless job and be home before Satou-san realizes we've even left. [too late.]

    I am never reckless.

    [Is it a lie if she believes it? She smiles a little at the headpat.]

    Yes. And bring Chronee and Mikale home with us.

    [He withdraws his hand slowly, almost reluctant to step back from being a big brother. But that isn't his role and he can't get too comfortable.]

    Yes, let's do just that. Chron-san and Mikale-san are waiting for us.
