[EVENT | 4TH WALL] FIX IT FORTUITY | Feb 18-Mar 11
Characters: Everyone and anyone, including our visitors
Date: Feb 18, 2018-March 11, 2018
Location: This log can be used for anywhere to do with the fourth-wall event.
Situation: Many and various. There are a few starters in the comments below, or create your own!
Warnings/Rating: Please add warnings in subject headers as needed.
This year there's no sudden explosion to mark the influx of people. The weather is still faintly snowy, crisp and chill, and though there are days when the sun breaks through the clouds it doesn't do much to make things genuinely warmer.
Much like light slipping between the clouds, other Foreigners start slipping into the city, here and there. By this time the kedan and the anchored Foreigners know more than well enough what a Foreigner with no soul gem means, and by the time the third drifter has shown up it's considered sign enough for enthusiastic miniature pop-up markets to spring up where the snow is melting away, much like flowers.
Cheerful, profit-seeking flowers.
All the same, with the recent collaborations between Foreigners and kedan, the kedan are much more willing to look kindly on the newcomers-- at least so long as they don't cause too much trouble.
There's some speculation about what might be causing it -- the phenomenon comes earlier than it has before, not quite into spring yet -- but once objects start appearing and disappearing, it's safe to say the Dreaming can be blamed. As unpredictable as the Dreaming can be, this makes more than a few people relax-- at least it's a known unpredictability. The items that vanish are always of personal value, regardless of monetary worth, and they usually reappear later. And some items simply appear. Whether or not they'll stay forever remains to be seen, but it's always things with some emotional attachment, often which were on the mind or in conversation recently.
And often, the feeling of being watched, or that you've seen this thing before, no matter if it's impossible.

At the chance to check out the gem, Lloyd leaned in curiously. It doesn't seem to have any real important design to it nor does the band it sat in, clearly not an exsphere.] What happens if you lose your soul gem? [Nothing good, he suspects. He puts both hands behind his head casually.] Not really sure why anyone would be concerned about it clashing with your Cruxis crystal. They probably had more important things to think about when they crafted it.
[Just how long has Zelos been here to know that kind of information?] Guess I'd better do what I can to help before going home, then.
no subject
[Lethal, in other words. Despite everything Zelos has been through, despite what he tried to do less than two months ago, he doesn't really want to test the theory. Death-by-loss-of-soul is probably painful.
-- all of which is forgotten an instant later with a look of confused surprise.]
That's it? You got dragged here against your will, you've got an expiration date, and that's all you've got to say?
[An exhale that's half amused, half irritated.]
Heh. I don't know why I'm even surprised anymore.
no subject
[It isn't like the exspheres where it would be pretty hard to lose something that's embedded into his body. Something to think about at a later time.
A small tilt of his head.]
What am I supposed to do? This world doesn't seem so bad to the point where it needs me to stick around long-term. So I'll just hang out with you and help where I can until I go back home.
no subject
With a shrug:] Sure, there's nothing else you can do. But most people would be at least a little selfish first. Raging against it, looking for a way out, sitting and sulking, or even taking a swing at me. Be honest -- did you have even a second of 'woe is me', or did you just go straight into helping whoever was closest to you?
[He's missed you, Lloyd. Really. This is his way of saying he cares.]
