Third Sight - Voice

I’m glad the dragons are gone now, but I find it strange how the natives here react to it all. The shops that we tried to help put out… their already reconstructing them. Like it’s an every day occurrence. Perhaps not every day, but it seems that this might be something they go through often enough ( Read more... )

I think it may have been the mist.

[a pause, and then a long sigh]

I'm not upset.

...something strange happened to me too.

[private to watanuki & doumeki // voice] confinedintime November 1 2009, 08:17:08 UTC

The mist?

[a small pause then speaks very carefully]

With your hands... yes?

[private to watanuki & doumeki // voice] epicureanshield November 1 2009, 08:22:34 UTC

It's very strange, the mist. It was the only thing that changed...

[another little sound in his throat]

Yes. It was...strange.

[private to watanuki & doumeki // voice] confinedintime November 1 2009, 08:37:09 UTC

[Pondering sounds]

That's true. it is what seemed to change. Did you notice people were having bad dreams at that time too?

Ah... yes. I thought I saw something but... I wasn't sure.

[Pause]

You should... come over and see this though.

Might want to have a chat with the barkeep. Chatty bloke. Says a lot of useful shit.

confinedintime November 1 2009, 08:55:23 UTC

The barkeep? [A pondering sound to that, a soft hmm] I see...

Before I go poking around with the barkeep... what could you tell me? I mean, have you noticed if the others around here have these things? The Forges? Or just us?

heresygrenade November 1 2009, 08:59:01 UTC

What am I, a fucking travel guide?

There are a few out there. Couldn't say whether they're natives or outlanders.

confinedintime November 1 2009, 09:05:40 UTC

[A long pause and frown, then a very polite tone of voice...]

Never mind. Thank you for the information on the barkeep and the devices. My apologies for taking your time. . .

Filters? [ Auto-pinged. ] How did you figure that out?

confinedintime November 2 2009, 02:38:04 UTC

I... just started to fiddle around with the devices. You can find it if you... [Insert a swift explanation here]... and... well it seems to work. It's not too hard. Me and Machines don't get along and I figured it out with some time.

Hopefully that helps...

Filtered projectiles November 2 2009, 03:20:49 UTC

[ Huh. Rolo is impressed and maybe a little grateful. You can have some cooperation and a test run of the filter in return, Watanuki.]

I think the Scorched are the only ones with these. But by that extension, the people in charge must have known we were coming to be so prepared...

Filtered confinedintime November 2 2009, 03:45:50 UTC

[Is glad he could help, and that it works, because... well, he likes this filtering thing too]

Yes, it seems that others are saying the same. Scorched. Such an odd term to hear about ones self.

That's true though. That they were well prepared. I wonder who though. How they knew to be ready...

They started preparing when the Mist started getting thicker. That's what I noticed.

As for the Forge, I've never seen a native Anatolian carrying or using one. I think it might just be us. [The outsiders.]

[Voice] confinedintime November 2 2009, 02:43:57 UTC

I suppose we could take our cues from the natives themselves. The Mist too. I just... would think there was something else. I mean, how predictable is the weather?

Hmm, well that's helpful. Thanks. That would mean they... well they might not know what we talk about. Then again we don't know what they talk about either...

[Voice] sucker_punches November 2 2009, 04:23:28 UTC

[Ruefully.] I don't think the behavior of this Mist has anything to do with the weather, personally.

[A sigh.]

In the future, you're right. We should be mindful of what they do. They told us a lot without actually saying anything.

I wonder why we're given these things, when they obviously don't want or need them.

[Voice] confinedintime November 2 2009, 05:11:22 UTC

[A bit of a pause. Has NOT wanted to agree with that at all, but might have to now]

Alright... Yes. So... it's not exactly normal seeming, is it. [Sighs] Not with all the nightmares people had with it...

Then let's do our best to use what they gave us... [Tapping the Forge] and keep each other up to date. One might see one thing that someone else might not.

It sounds like people are getting jobs as well. I... might look into doing the same. It could be good for information gathering as well as currency.
