TURN THE LIGHTS OFF

characters: everyone.
location: around town.
date/time: january 20-29.
content: the lanterns begin to malfunction.
warnings: body horror and psychological horror. please cw tags appropriately.

you'll become one

January 20th arrives the same as all the days before it. There's no great pulse of warning that throbs through the air, no ominous wind that causes the bonfire to shudder. The spirits are neither agitated nor do they hide. You could almost miss the change, if the lanterns weren't always by your side. There's no explanation that comes with the way that it's changed, but it's impossible not to worry when it's happened so suddenly.

Maybe it takes a few days, or maybe it only takes a few hours, but suddenly it isn't just the lanterns that have changed. You, yourself, have become somehow different. It's possible that you won't even have the right state of mind to wonder how long it will last. At the very least, it appears you aren't alone. All across Beacon, lanterns are changing, and changing the people with them.

Out in the distance, the lighthouse's beam has turned green.

Well, there's already a message on the network about it. Maybe you can get some information from there. You've already seen what yours and mine are doing. Pretty sure we didn't do anything to make it happen-- couldn't have all of us done something to our lanterns at once, right? So it has to be something not-us that caused it?

we can wrap this one up too?

[diastima]

Yeah. There's an outside cause.

[ Lucius looks up. ]

I'll see what I can do. Gathering and looking through the data will take time, but it's not like I'm busy.

[ Stone had given him ideas, so it's probably a good time to start soon. ]

yeah it's at a good point :)

[scarsolderthanyou]

Sure. Good luck, kid. Let me know if you need me for anything, or if you figure out anything interesting.
