Sinbrilee | Dreaming | Death



Art by Rica.


The city is lit by a warm orange glow, there are thousands of lanterns lit and burning brightly to ward off the gathering dark. It was once a grand, thriving place, and it's obvious by the quality of the Greco-Roman architecture, the high sweeping columns of white marble, the beautifully paved roads. There are aqueducts throughout the city that look as if they could be put to use today. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the city's spent the last few hundred years underwater, it looks quite liveable. This city is entirely open to exploration, so feel free to send your character out to their heart's content. Remember, certain doorways will lead your characters into either Death or the Dreaming and these markings won't always be visible to them, so they should take care and be vigilant at all times!

Note: A separate post will be made for the events of the Bacchanal later in the month.

And everyone complains I don't work with more of a net! [He's straddling the outside and the inside of the arch, right at that corner, taking the time to wipe sweat away with his arm.]

Okay, yeah, it is partly a show. But if Alfred couldn't keep me off of the chandeliers when I was young, there's no way anyone is keeping me off these buildings.

[Still, he grins, looking at Kyle before looking for the next handhold.] You are one of a kind, my friend. No one else would sit back and watch some obviously unhinged guy climb a building.

Where's the fun in that?

[Certain things, he can understand backup plans, contingencies, hell, he uses a lot himself. But the real thrill is in leaping without looking, taking a chance and banking on everything to go your way because it's you doing it. Something Kyle will never admit to enjoying, even if he's guilty of it.]

[He floats along, keeping pace.]

Well then, looks like we're both our special brand of crazy. Good kind.

That's what I said! No fun in that.

[He loved leaping off of buildings, not sure what might happen. He knew he had back up, he had his grapples, he had someone there to catch him. But in that brief moment, where you just threw yourself over the edge?

Nothing could compare. He looks up, seeing how close he is to the top, and pushes through the tiredness, through the pain.]


A very good kind. A preferable kind, considering the other kinds that we know, right? [Another swing, and one more, and his hand closed on the edge of the top. He grinned in victory, hauling himself up and he just laid on his back for awhile.]

[He's getting better at spotting pain when he sees it, and says nothing. Sometimes you needed to push through everything, go all the way to the edge, and see what was left when you landed up there.]

The most preferable kind.

[He flips, and hovers up, landing on an outcrop just above Dick, watching the lights dance.]

Go again?

[Working through the pain was a standard thing, something he'd learned from a young age. And he'd done it a lot of times, some of them lately, too. His knee gave a twinge at the thought, and he looked up at the water dome thing.]

Go again? [He gave a dramatic groan and closed his eyes.] No, I'm old, I can't climb anymore, you need to find me one of those chairs that go up and down stairs.
imaginate: ([kyle] hey there)

[personal profile] imaginate 2013-10-02 07:32 am (UTC)(link)
[Kyle grins at him.]

You need a cane too, old man?

[So over dramatic. In fact, he flops back down.]

Maybe an iron lung. And a cane. This is it. This is the end, my friend, this is where I've come to lay my old bones.
