EVENT: ~*~Heat Wave~*~

Who: Heroes! Old ones, new ones...!
When: Day 42, afternoon
Where: Around the train

[ Good news, everyone! Those pesky cicadas are gone at last! You might have even had a chance to relax, except....

Except for the heat wave.

It's like the worst parts of the last dregs of summer come to torture you with excrutiating heat. It's heat so bad you could swear that you've started melting yourself the second you step outside. It's terrible. At least with the cold you can add more layers on, how are you supposed to deal with heat?? You can't just walk around naked??

(That's not a suggestion.)

Here's the thing about the heat, though: It's bad enough that it's causing mirages-- mirages of people you may even recognize, people who are lost in the dark. People who will try to lead you into danger, people who don't want what's best for you after all....

That aside, you may or may not have noticed that there's some new teammates on the train! The notification appears cheerfully on everyone's Chains:
WELCOME NEW HEROES

And you may find yourself wearing a label you can't seem to remove until you've spoken to at least one other person: "Hi, I'm ______! Talk to me about ______!"

There's a mischievous giggle in the wind that you may recognize as the same one that ran the plants and secrets game. ]

[[ NOTES: You're welcome to make team posts if you like, or intro directly into this mingle if you haven't already. Until next month's placements, the heat wave will persist. Characters stand the risk of seeing castmates not in the game until that point, mirages from the heat. Enjoy! ]]

"Almost?"

[gives Five a curious glance]

Comments like that make me wonder what kind of world you came from before now.

[he is gently prying, still giving Five an out if he doesn't want to talk, but. also giving him an opening to talk if he does want to]

[ He's going to look at Twilight and then just take another sip - going slowly because he kinda wants to enjoy this one instead of chugging it down and call it a day. And then, eventually— ]

You're going to have to be more specific if there's something you're curious about. If I don't want to answer, I just won't.

[it's fine, Twilight can wait!! he's busying himself with cleaning up his mess, though he keeps Five in the corners of his vision]

[and that response. . . gets a huff]

Fair enough.

What was you world like? Overall. Paint it in broad strokes for me.

[ He didn't expect him to really just want to know that, and not sonething specific. ]

If we're taking where I spent the majority of my life as reference, "destroyed". Just imagine your world, but nobody else is alive and whatever's still left standing has a high chance of falling on your head at any moment.

It's shit.
