INCOMING MESSAGE (NON-KIDNAPPED CHARACTERS ONLY)

A CALL FOR HELP


▶ SUDDEN TRANSMISSION
On the 13th of October, the network flickers online and several messages pop up. Outsiders will probably recognize the usernames attached to them.

@ KIJYO

castle in the fog
skulls
watching us
sacrifice
help us

@ GOLDILOCKS

wolf kaiju
Promises protection
Found broken radio

@ BANKERBOY

🦸=❌
🐺💀🔨=less fog
👹=🦇🐺
🧑‍🌾=💩!
🏰=☠️!
go toget

@ ONESTEPFORWARD

We're okay for now. Careful of purple flowers. -🦆

Some Outsiders might notice these usernames to be Lucy/Kaede, Taryon, Nanami and Malkuth respectively. The messages end there and there will be no way to contact the senders or anyone who has gone missing. While Outsiders in the town will be able to use the network to speak to each other, the reception will be spotty and the messages might be delayed. It might be more efficient to simply meet up in person.



▶ AFTERWORD.
The messages from the kidnapped characters are out! Thank you everyone for participating! Non-kidnapped characters may use this log to have discussions (or do whatever else might be relevant). As previously mentioned, after the 7th, they will not be able to contact any kidnapped characters, and their messages to each other will be spotty or delayed (which can make for funny shenanigans if you prefer). It is probably much easier to organise an in-person meeting, but we will leave it to you to do what you like. The townsfolk convene at the church for their daily prayers and worship at about 12 noon every day. Outsiders may use this time away from the townsfolk to have more private discussions.

We have put this up early to allow people more time to thread in it, but ICly it is going up on the 13th and will lead up to the Kaiju log on the 15th. These messages are also delayed. Whether or not the captives actually are 'okay' is up in the air ...

All tags on this log are worth 2 points and will count towards October AC.

and you're not going to convince him he's wrong
you wanna help people? there are more productive things you could be doing

"More productive"--? These are the people we came here to protect!

If I can't convince anyone then I'll do it myself

between this and the imugi i'm starting to think you enjoy getting your ass kicked

[ Shinn is a mad lad who has more guts than Elan. Normally Elan would find Shinn vs. Godzilla entertaining but these are serious times, he actually doesn't desire to see him beat up (too late, ofc). Take it from someone who got their ass kicked by the kaiju. ]

if that matters to you so much, you can start by not getting yourself knocked out! have you thought about where you're putting the townspeople? what you're going to tell them?

Why do I have to have the ideas!

[ HE'S NOT THE IDEAS GUY STOP ]
gundemn: (t1)

[personal profile] gundemn 2024-10-08 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
[ If Godzilla is a loose cannon then Shinn's behavior is something else in the same bucket of 'detrimental to mission'. ]

are you a soldier only good at following orders or can you use your head?
warn them, lie to them, hell wait for their monster god to come and they'll hide for themselves if they can still see sense
lostdestiny: (angry - g)

A warning isn’t enough if there’s not enough time or nowhere to go!

[personal profile] gundemn 2024-10-08 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
then you'd better hurry up and look for a place
lostdestiny: (cranky - 103)

[personal profile] lostdestiny 2024-10-08 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
There isn’t one! This place isn’t like Neo Tokyo — it’s not built for them to survive
gundemn: (b998)

[personal profile] gundemn 2024-10-08 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
then you'd better start coming to terms with the fact that you can't save everyone

[personal profile] lostdestiny 2024-10-08 10:44 am (UTC)(link)
I know that!

[ At least intellectually ]

But they can at least try!
gundemn: (50)

still private

[personal profile] gundemn 2024-10-08 04:23 pm (UTC)(link)
those two are a lost cause [ Meaning Godzilla and Set. ]
they're gods. human life is cheap to them
insulting everyone else is a sure way of getting them to work with you!
lostdestiny: (other - fuck greenpeace)

private all the way down

[personal profile] lostdestiny 2024-10-08 05:35 pm (UTC)(link)
So what? They’re the biggest assholes around so everyone else gave up on protecting people?

[ That’s not… directly insulting to non-gods. Anyway Shinn doesn’t have a frame of reference for gods other than old vague traditions about island deities so screw it he’ll just call them assholes. ]
gundemn: (48)

[personal profile] gundemn 2024-10-09 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
you're surrounded by cynical assholes if you haven't noticed! accept it
yelling about it won't change anything
lostdestiny: (cranky - 103)

[personal profile] lostdestiny 2024-10-09 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
Why! Why the hell would LILITH choose them? Ideals alone can’t do anything, but power without ideals is just…!

[ Aaaah its shit it’s total shit. He wants to protect this world but he also wants to be back in Compass where almost everyone has big ideals (and now even Agnes has had The Moon Suffering Experience and should be less awful).
gundemn: (ex3)

[personal profile] gundemn 2024-10-10 05:25 am (UTC)(link)
LILITH isn't a benevolent organization
lostdestiny: (angry - d)

[personal profile] lostdestiny 2024-10-10 12:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Then leave!

[ Oh no

Is this what Athrun felt like… ]
gundemn: (a4)

[personal profile] gundemn 2024-10-12 04:18 pm (UTC)(link)
none of us can leave
did you forget the part where they kidnapped you and put a chip in you
lostdestiny: (cranky - worst shore leave ever)

[personal profile] lostdestiny 2024-10-12 07:16 pm (UTC)(link)
It's not like they're gonna blow up my eyeball for leaving Neo Tokyo

[ Uhhh wait would they has anyone tried this before ]
gundemn: (50)

[personal profile] gundemn 2024-10-14 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
if you think you can escape go ahead and try

[ Please. Elan wouldn't be here if running away were so easy. ]
