[Event Post] Kaikori: The Eye of the Storm
::So anyone implicated with the disaster at Heartland City, you've been hurried away into Kaikori, the private gated community owned by the Wakahisa family.
It is a surreal place, caught in perpetual twilight. Resembling Ballonlea and Glimwood Tangle from Pokemon Sword & Shield, except the mushrooms are replaced with crystals growing out the ground and trees, it centers around a circle of shops and buildings including a convenience store, a gym, a small school to tutor the children of Noriko's friends and key employees, before branching out into company apartments to the south east, a motel and an inn to the west, and private homes in the North West to North to North East.
Perhaps you would like to take a break, interact with others, and breath before things likely get worse.
Fortunately, every time the government seems to come into Kaikori, they've been unable to locate Yamamoto Suzume, Wakahisa Noriko, or Mr. and Mrs. Tsukumo. So for now.
A piece of twilight paradise before things likely get so much worse.::

[ Stands. Brushes himself off. Helping you to your feet. ]
You do remember which poor jerk is going to be covering for your collective asses, right?
no subject
EmpreBlrgle. Can't talk.
And I was wrapping time-space to prevent a self-sentient shard of one of the strongest Abyssals from the Pit of the World Unmade from getting out of control!
And it's not my fault I couldn't find this place sooner.
::Whiiiiiine, flailing her arms like a bimbo.::
no subject
[ Sighs. ]
...I'm going to assume you had a better reason for not finding this place than just 'getting unfathomably lost', for both our sakes. Domino hasn't changed that much...
no subject
I LIVE IN KYOTO.
AND OTHER ME AND LULU KEEPS MOVING THINGS.
no subject
[ Coughs. The accent slipping just a bit. ]
Anyway, the past is the past. So. Let's trying and start at all the threats we need to handle imminently and work our way through them.
no subject
She might be able ta see through the tech and I ain't needin' no plastic box ta tell me where ta walk, ya self righteous high cotton fake who's ashamed o' his own roots!
::Oh she's a hick hick.::
And I can't talk 'bout 'em.
no subject
[ Oh no. Oh nooooo. ]
Why can't ya talk about 'em. We know who's here, right? Ain't that damn Geas over an' done with!?
no subject
Nope, not until He Himself says it's off. That's why me and me ain't been able to talk shit about shit.
no subject
Now, excuse me for not knowing just how Obsidian-brained He Himself has gotten in your world, but ah would think: "My wife just nearly started interdimensional war with a gods-be-damned nuclear dragon" would mean ya can talk about stuff now.
...She don't got any more of those, right? Cause I only got one spunky teenager in a mech and myself to really do battle on that scale in reserve. 'Less Jinn remembers he has that sentai mecha I prototyped...
no subject
Naw, that ain't how it work, Hun.
And I can't say. But I wouldn't reckon we'll be seein' another of those.
no subject
Shoulda known nothin' ever goes that smooth around here wit' my fuckin luck.
At least that's some good news. I ain't exactly prepared to mobilize on that level. Maybe between the interdimensional wars, abyssal invasions, fae interlopers and ultra-nationalists I can get a damn nap in for a change.
no subject
It won't. This shit got's tacit approval. Ya'd need ta talk to him or prove to 'im.
... Ya sound like yer havin' tremendous difficulty with yer lifestyle, Dahlin'.
no subject
I keep gettin' tha responsibility of cleaning up the messes thrust upon me and we have like four different godsbedamned factions headhunting me or my direct family! No shit ahm stressed out!
[ DEEP breath. ]
...Alright. I can't know anything. Fine. Whatever.
What can ah do to figure this out. What do you need from me. How can ah help untangle this Gordian Knot of everyone across multiple realities coming for our collective heads.
no subject
Get me and myself in the same room.
no subject
Is there anything more to it than "my cousin is clearly plotting some sort of government infiltration and has gone completely dark to everyone".
Like, can I just pinpoint her, figure out a way to teleport us to her location, and chokeslam her so that she stays in one place long enough to make introductions.
'Cause that's like, actually relatively doable so I'm wondering what the catch is.
no subject
We can tell you stuff if we're both in the same room.
That's why I came!
::Jazz hands.::
no subject
[ There's a small twitch under his eye as he contemplates this. ]
Does our Noriko know this is how this works. Has she been intentionally avoiding contacting you so she doesn't have to tell any of us anything.
no subject
Yeah she knows.
And nah, it's 'cuz she's busy because the right wing in this country wants a genocide of every monster or supernatural human in Japan, ain't ya been paying attention, ya goof?
no subject
Since she's vanished, every goddamn weirdo has come outta the woodwork!
no subject
Ain't no time for that.
I'll just have to wait in Kaikori and play pinochle while you deal with the weirdos.
no subject
Her going to ground like this is gettin' on my last damn nerve, I'm tellin' ya!
no subject
How good ya at Charades and Pictograph and the like, Cuz'?
no subject
CHARADES!?
YOU NEED THE BOTH OF YA FOR CHARADES!?
no subject
It ain't tellin' if we each only give half the info and you guess it!
no subject
[ He pinches his nose and lets out a strangled cry of pure frustration. ]
I hate that that would probably work...
But I'm terrible at charades, so I guess we would need some time to deal with it.
Okay, besides trying to pin Noriko down long enough to get the time for you two to talk. Is there anything else I can do while waiting for our seemingly inevitable demise!?
