Event 6/27: (Part one of two, because part two gets TL;DR. So sorry for the slight delay!)

The battle continues on and it's not hard to succumb to weariness. But as you get tired, the chimeras are tiring too. Though their persistence could be somewhat admirable, nevertheless. They know where you've all been living over the months from previous attempts at the surface, and they've got the residential district surrounded down Lander and Brebo and across Gohl and Ingles. Still, their numbers have definitely dwindled since the first day. And while you dwindle, the biggest difference is that you come back (to life, that is). So one could even call it a final stand (against you, that is). But for what reason? What could they possibly want from all this?

Those nurses and doctors haven't been able to get back into the hospital either. But they still wait for you in the streets of Discedo, steel pipe or scalpel in hand.

A small rumble can be felt underground. It's a very light tremble to those above ground, but to the ones in the subway, it'll be more of an abrupt shake. Just what was that anyway?

[+ Player-suggested event] Well, whatever just happened, characters find that from this point on (as if the time of this post, that is), their communication devices' security disables itself. Privacy becomes unknown to these little devices, so yes that does mean that everything your characters posts or records will be public for everyone else to see or hear until further notice.

Also, those characters who still have their chips will suddenly, from this point on until further notice, start to experience occasional "mood swings". Whatever happened, their chip that remains in their body seems to react and as a result, chipped characters start to have moments where they lose control of their emotions, and they become vulnerable to acting more carelessly and recklessly. It's almost like shifting in and out of temporary insanity.

Perhaps all this has something to do with the scientists, who remain eerily, but persistently quiet amidst all the chaos. Did something happen to them just now...?



Hope is looking bleak, isn't it? The entrance to the subway just never seem to get clearer and clearer. There's probably some fatass chimera sitting there, isn't there? The food is nasty and old, but it's enough to keep going. But that skeleton guy in the bathroom makes terrible company (and it smells like old shit too). On top of that, that thing is still there. The Regenerator. And there's that other Regenerator that still waits along Brebo line. And the subway tunnels are too dark to navigate without proper amount of lighting to guide you. Who knows what could be waiting on the other side?

Those headless model posters are looking eerily like foreshadowing, by now.

But then there's that sudden shake under your feet. Another earthquake? No, it was far too brief.

At least an hour passes before you notice: There's this annoying flash of light coming at you from the corner of your eye.

Wait, what?

Not unlike a lighthouse beacon, this little flash of light flickers on and off, as if signaling for you. The source of this light is a mysterious woman holding a flashlight in the distance. Her features are too dark to discern (though she does look quite sweet somehow. Must be that cute posture).

Regardless, follow her or not, she doesn't answer when you ask, or make any sound save for her footsteps. She remains several feet ahead of you, but the keeps the light on to lead you. Lead you where?

To Brebo Avenue Line again, and north into the tunnel.

(Of course, that Regenerator's still there, and of course it only notices when you try to sneak by.)

Well, followed her or not, the woman disappears when characters reach the end of the tunnel. You've been led to another platform.

Sign: To Gâ–’R Râ–’â–“â–ˆ

The layout is pretty much the same as the station at Brebo, although additional hallways on B2 leading to possible other platforms are all wrecked and caved in. It also seems a lot emptier than Brebo's station.

Although there is a newspaper clipping of a missing ad for someone's red sneakers.

And the accompanying feet.

And there's a sudden explosion coming from B1.

There's an explosion on B1?!

No signs of that woman, but she's left her mark, that's for sure. The dust is still settling, but whoever it was seems to have literally blown one of the entrances from the inside out.

The light's shining through, beckoning. And only delicious freedom awaits, if you reach for it.

The loss of privacy on the comms isn't retroactive, is it? That is, it only affects private posts made after this post was made, not those made before, right?

QUESTION


Do the chipswings only make them more reckless/angry, or can we have drunken and depressed as well? (Not that Moa wasn't already goin' that way :/)

Not like the chip moodswing problem will affect already moodswing-prone Ron...

Sonic is lucky and unlucky about the chips thing. Here's to hoping BigBoss doesn't randomly try to shoot his ass.

As for Urataros... wuh oh.

Also, I'm wondering, could the swings be to positives instead? Like, having an unreasonable character become all understanding and helpful?
