What You Take With You part II: Reflections In The Fog

Who: All those on the What You Take With You mission and everyone else (who OOCly wishes to join in)
What: An important artifact is brought back only to immedaitely activate. Further details are here.
When: November 10th
Where: Daybreak Campus and around Soliel
Warning: Warn in headers as appropriate

On November 10th the recovery team sent into the Outlands makes their return with the obsidian mirror. Thus far it hasn't seemed any different than any other obsidian mirror, nothing spectacular about it beyond its age and where it came from. But Daybreak was only called to retrieve it, not anything more. The spell is worked to open the path between the Outlands and Daybreak, allowing them back. But as this happens, the mists rise up as they often do when the two worlds intersect. The team might even see it ghosting over the mirror before catching their own reflections in it. A light flashes over its surface and in that instant, the mirror activates.

Just one look in any reflective surface throughout Soliel-- a mirror, a window, a bit still water-- and people will be struck with sudden dizziness, a feeling of being knocked back, and then darkness. You'll find, on waking, a dark and desolate landscape full of smoke and fog. It'll be hard to tell where one is going. You won't be alone. People all over the academy have been brought into this vision. You may run into them, but even more likely, you'll run into the spots of color that cut through the fog.

And dwelling with this color? Why it's you. But better. Or maybe, much, much worse. It seems the mirror has something to show you. But is that something a promise? Or a threat...? Learn its lesson and you may escape both the shadowy realm and a terrible fate in your future. What image will you leave on the world?

Oh. ...Is it the fog? It seems fine to me.
bolderfell: Maybe you're all talk. <user name="phlavours" site="tumblr.com"> (TALK 🗡️ Just party banter.)

It's also the whole, 'Where even are we?' thing, but if you're not bothered...
stavros: Kokoro smiling and blushing as she looks over her shoulder. ([a] hope i can do it)

Of course I'm a little wary, but I've heard a lot of stories about the kinds of places you'll randomly end up in. If it looks nice from the outset, just don't accept any food or favours until you're sure. My family has more experience with the other sort, but I'll admit I'm just sort of regular, myself.
bolderfell: I accept all of that 100% completely. <user name="nappotuna" site="tumblr.com"> (STONE 🗡️ Uh-huh.)

...You think... you're just sort of regular.

[w hat. ..

He shakes his head and pulls his scarf up higher.]


I don't think I could handle meeting anyone else in your family.
stavros: Kokoro saying it's fine. ([c] trying to look competent)

[She blinks and scratches her head.] Do I know you?
bolderfell: It's warm in here. <user name="hashagi" site="tumblr.com"> (PEEK 🗡️ Shut up.)

[What. Therion blinks, too. He's not disguised. It's not that foggy.]

...I thought you did. Kokoro Belmont?
stavros: Kokoro starting up Stavros. ([a] i know how to drive)

[personal profile] stavros 2019-11-18 02:02 am (UTC)(link)
Yes! That's my name. You must know my family. We go back a long time with places like this.
bolderfell: What do you mean, you can't tell it's bedhead? <user name="nappotuna" site="tumblr.com"> (MUSS 🗡️ Too early for this.)

[personal profile] bolderfell 2019-11-19 12:40 am (UTC)(link)
We met at school?
stavros: Kokoro with her whip. ([a] introducing)

[personal profile] stavros 2019-11-19 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Kokoro blinks. She looks Therion over again with this information in mind.]

...You're lucky, you must never get carded.
bolderfell: I don't think arrows go there. <user name="hashagi" site="tumblr.com"> (OUCH 🗡️ I need da healz.)
