[Whisket]

Yeah I'm looking forward to the interactions after we're back in the real world causing all sorts of shit.

[HeartlessNobody]

I already have a few ideas of what might happen....mwahaha.

Hacks

[IVIasterJay]

You'll get them when you get them. Just be patient and wait for the IC to move a bit.

[Whisket]

Oh I know I'm not trying to rush anything, just excited the pacing so far is perfect.

[horrordaily]

Anyone else excited the steam summer sale has started?

[Whisket]

Yes and no, because I just got paid but my computer is down so whatever I buy will have to wait

[IVIasterJay]

And then there was one. Once Jade is up, I'll post to move the scene along. You're always free to post whenever to interact with each other or talk.

[horrordaily]

Not to be a dick or anything, but Billy didn't recognize Shimmer so I'm not sure if she could have baby sat him. EDIT: I only mention it because Billy made an observation about Shimmer.

[DragonBeastMode]

well she babysat him when he was like 2-3 so most kids wouldn't remember I could put that in the ic if it helps. and ur not being mean.

[horrordaily]

Ah, I didn't think about it being in the past. That would work well actually.

[IVIasterJay]

I got impatient. Six days is close enough to a week.

Feel free to react to the boy in any way you wish. You don't have to blindly follow him. You don't even have to follow him if your character wouldn't want to. He'll wait however long it takes for everyone to follow, so you all could talk in the clearing (about how you just got abducted, the star, hey do I know you maybe, what to do now), or you could say "hell no" and try to run. If you try leaving the clearing in any direction other than following the boy, you will walk a ways and find yourself walking into the clearing from the opposite side of where you left. You should get the message eventually. (He's just stopping time and moving your character each time, same as before but this time because they stay standing up and are unfamiliar with the surroundings they wouldn't notice it.)

[horrordaily]

Did the clearing open to the top of the waterfall or down by the pool it collects into?

[IVIasterJay]

Below. The small cliff rises in front of where they would walk into the space, waterfall in front, pool, river going to the left, small rock rise to the right, and to the front and right is more clear space, as the cliff gets lower to the right. There is more forest to the left that the river runs into.

Edit: And when I say the waterfall is small I mean just in size. It's a pretty strong solid wall of water coming down, not a weak trickle just falling down the side of the rock wall.

[horrordaily]

Just a heads up, I'm going to be describing the waterfall in terms that one wouldn't normally relate with a 'small' waterfall. But this is from a child's point of view.

[IVIasterJay]

No problem. It's a rather important feature, and I don't feel I'm describing it quite right anyways. You are free to describe it however you wish.

[horrordaily]

Just give me a heads up if what I post seems disingenuous to how you see it.

[horrordaily]

Been up fifty-two hours, ignore any glaring spelling or grammar issues; I'll fix 'em tomorrow.

[IVIasterJay]

Only one problem I see. Twenty minutes would have been enough to almost make it within view of the city. The boy would have turned you around soon after you got out of view of the clearing, so probably a minute of walking. He has infinite patience, but he doesn't expect others to.

[horrordaily]

How about if I use a nondescript term like " After a couple minutes of walking"

EDIT: like that?
