EVENT: ~*~Heat Wave~*~

[trainmasters]

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! ]]

Good-looking lady with dark hair on Jasmine, usually has a blindfold, well-endowed, talks down about herself constantly. You can't miss her.

"Talks down about herself constantly", huh...

[bad_crowmance]

Given half an opportunity and someone unfortunate enough to compliment her, yeah. It's easier to avoid if you just never say anything nice about her to her face.

[hiddensun]

Oh, that type of person. I take it you're not too fond of that kind of attitude?

[bad_crowmance]

Not even a little bit! It's frustrating to try and talk to, especially if the other person won't listen to a damned thing you say about it.

[ Crow lets out an annoyed huff. ]

[hiddensun]

And you care enough about the fact that she doesn't listen?

[bad_crowmance]

I care about having my time wasted by someone spouting bullshit because of some weird obsession with putting themselves down.
