EVENT LOG:
LIGHT UP THE NIGHT

characters: everyone.
location: around town.
date/time: november 5-7.
content: use that bonfire!
warnings: n/a. please cw tags appropriately.

maybe we can bring back the light

Shortly after Robin's network post, a magnificent display of fireworks will start to launch from the lighthouse! They're odd-looking, though, given that they glow but don't cast light. But still cool to watch! The best place to view the show is at the beach, but some of the bigger explosions can be seen just over the treetops from town, and they can certainly be heard from all over Beacon. Exciting! Maybe! Robin sure thinks so! The fireworks will continue for a couple of hours before a very colorful grand finale, after which the lighthouse beam will shine red again for the duration of the event.

Meanwhile, back in town, Rastus has set up a magnificent display of his own. Torches are set up in a wide circle around the bonfire (which looks a bit less bright, given how many torches he's pulled from it), ready for the taking. You don't even have to talk to him first! He's lingering nearby, though, and... has looked more excited about things in the past. This is gonna be a bookkeeping nightmare, he can tell.

In any case, the torches are free for the taking, but do remember to report any torch movement to the event header on the item requests page. Don't let Rastus's fears become reality!

"Well, no one said I was planning to do it," he waffles, thinking he's probably done it again and gone too far with this explanation. "Anyway, if I did, I'd be very careful. I don't trust her as far as I can throw her, which is just as well, since I've got a surprisingly strong arm."

Unnecessary information, probably. But he thinks it might lighten this very dark mood he's curated between talks of wars past and wars pending.

That earns him a chuckle. "Well, if you decide to go up there and end up throwing her, I won't blame you. I think we've all thought about it before. I know I have."

Just without the advantage of wings. And before they were all told how essential the role of Keeper was, though again it's hard to know how much of that was true and how much was Robin bluffing.

"No, no, I think just a strong talking-to is in order. I'm not sure how much of her resetting is a bluff, but I don't want to take the chance. After all, I think I've done enough of that." He shakes his head. "I won't put anyone at danger on my account. If I go to her, I go to her with diplomacy."

Great.

This is why Aziraphale will get himself killed. Should Rosi ever go back to the lake, don't be surprised to find his body washed up ashore.

"She's not going to reset the town just because of one person," he says, shaking his head. "I do believe her when she says she doesn't simply want to kill us all. She would have done so already if she did. And I get the sense there's more to it than just slamming her fist onto a button when she feels threatened."

In fact, he knows there's more to it than that thanks to Daylight's investigations, but that's still not information he wants widely spread around. Not until they know more about the situation they're in.

"Diplomacy is the right way to go. But if you're serious about speaking to her, have a backup plan in case you don't make it back to us. Leave the tablet audio on and broadcast to the network, for example."

"You're right. Well, I'll... I'll think about it," he says. Because he has no idea what he'd even say to Robin. Demand answers? To what questions?

The thing about being left out in the dark with a bunch of obstacles to overcome just to survive is that he didn't have the luxury of time or resources to look into other things.

Well, he supposes, they'll have to figure something out. And he has a whole day of walking to do so.
