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! ]]

[she looks to him for a long moment.

He would so invite himself to her company. Typical.]

Yes, please, have a seat.

[Her tone is polite, but there's no mistaking that the words are wry. That said, she could sound worse than she is and does not appear upset.

Then again, when does she ever look like anything?]

At any rate it is the crafting of dolls, which are sometimes very specialised constructs.

[and he just looks right back at her, expression unwavering. except maybe for the way his mouth twitches slightly]

The kind of dolls kids play with, or the kind that find their way into display cases?

[why are you you.]

Any sort of doll, including combat, but a doll should be beautiful no matter its purpose. Even if they are played with.

[WHY WOULD HE NOT BE HIM]

Mmm. That's a good way to look at it.

[tilts his head at her, curious]

Do you give lessons?
