EVENT LOG: BURY A FRIEND


EVENT LOG:
BURY A FRIEND


characters: everyone.
location: around town.
date/time: october 9-17.
content: the hallucinations begin...
warnings: psychological horror. please cw tags appropriately.

it's probably something that shouldn't be said out loud

October 9 feels like a normal day at first, save for the red lighthouse beam cutting through the darkness overhead. You know by now—or you've heard—that the lighthouse is only active during ferry arrivals and events... And there's definitely no ferry docked at the, er. Beach. The town is quiet, the forest spirits behave business-as-usual, Rastus doesn't know what's up. Whatever's going on, you'll have to figure it out for yourself.

And you will, though the hallucinations are subtle at first: objects moving when they shouldn't, people's proportions looking just a bit off, voices in an empty room, and so on. Is it just your mind playing tricks in the darkness? Might be! Will did warn you all about the effects of living without a sun and a proper day/night cycle.

As the days go on, the hallucinations are harder to ignore, no matter how much you may wish to wave them off as flukes. What's wrong with everyone's faces? When did all the howling start? Who do you hold onto when the world drops out from under you? And those hands...

While you might know it can't be real, it certainly feels real. But at least it can't last forever!

...Right?

I hope so. If more people keep coming every month, the Invincible and the Village won't be able to offer homes to everyone. November is at our doorstep so I wonder how winter will be in this place...

There's been weather changes, I can only assume that there's seasons as well. Personally I'd welcome winter, but it may be detrimental to everyone else.

[He can feel the cold, but it doesn't affect him the way it would anyone else. Heat on the other hand... he'd already practically melted during the heat wave a few months ago.]

I thought at first it was keeping even. The same amount came in as those who died, but that doesn't seem to be the case at all.
