[ action for Stone Street ]

[Tonight, the hypnotic sound of female drone laughter emanates at almost regular intervals from 458 Stone Street. This goes on for some time before ceasing abruptly as a man, new to the neighborhood, throws the door open, strides out down the walk, and looks sharply up and down the street

Yeah....you aren't gonna get one of those around here. The tech isn't at the right time period.

[icingkills]

Time period? I'm afraid I don't follow.

Well you see, this town thinks it's in 1950's America. And even if you could get a cell phone, you wouldn't be able to call outside of town. We're kinda cut off here.

What a charming place.

Re: [phone]

[weiss_tank]

Yeah tell me about it. Also there's the whole issue of the town going crazy on us and not letting us leave.

Or die.

[...yeah, his money's on Purgatory, or rather some kind of otherworldly simulation of it. But play at disbelief; it's the expected thing in these situations.]

I find that highly unlikely.

No seriously! The not leaving bit you can test pretty easily. Just try walking out of town and see where you end up.

But the not dying...it's so weird man, you die and then you wake up in your bed here the next day, completely fine. Not to mention the fact that this town likes to cause you sever damage and that some of the residents here can't get along nicely with everyone else.

Imagine that! Except for the not leaving and the not dying, it sounds almost like a normal town.

Before you get too attached to that idea, this town likes to change, just to fuck with us. It creates its own rules.

A town after my own heart.

Please tell me you're joking.

[icingkills]

Not this time.

Well, I guess liking change isn't so bad, I just hope you aren't as sadistic.
