THE LOST DAYS... Round 2.

It's all darkness.

The feeling of nothingness, of being nothing. Of not existing. You have no thoughts, you will never have any thoughts again. While that fact is not comforting, because you cannot be comforted anymore, it is true.

There's a certain rest to being... nothing. And to both knowing and not knowing, that your time is done.

So it's all the more unfortunate when you feel, because you shouldn't feel. And the feeling is burning in your lungs, which you shouldn't have. Because you are- or were- nothing.

And then, you inhale a desperate gasp of air and open your eyes...

[Oh gods]

[Oh gods, so this is what its like in an actual city, THERE IS SO MUCH HOW DO PEOPLE DEAL WITH THAT MUCH NOISE AND PEOPLE]

[Okay, takes a deep breath, remembers he can breathe, and he'll step out into the street, take a look around, see if he can see....anything that stands out in all the noise. Or maybe someone familiar, he's seen a few Talon memories.]

You're correct, Mr. Tokyo-F's number-one bachelor. I think I'm supposed to be going by a callsign, but I don't suppose you happened to see the young man in the mask who told me what mine was?

Callsign? What young man?

[personal profile] widenessofthesea 2021-01-27 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
A bit younger than you, called himself Robin. Doesn't ring any bells?

On a related note, you don't happen to know Jason from future is now, do you?
protectshisown: (I mean....we could...)

Re: GOTHAM

[personal profile] protectshisown 2021-01-27 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! That's Talon. Or, uh...Tim? I think Tim is also one?

I think it might be a legacy title. Tim is also closer to my age by a lot.

He's my unitmate's brother.

Kind of an asshole, but also involved in heroics.

Talon's the really small one, isn't he...? I think he was taller.

Well, I think this is something to do with that Jason, but Robin had to rush off for some reason before he could say anything more, apart from to not trust anyone "green."
protectshisown: (Map making)

Re: GOTHAM

[personal profile] protectshisown 2021-01-27 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
Talon is like twelve, so yeah.

He's the only one named Jason and I know Talon and them live in a city.

[Which makes this hilarious as Rye is, indeed, wearing a bunch of green.]

Robin works with Batman and like they fight crime as superheroes because there's a problem with proper authorities. It's kind of confusing, honestly. And it's a whole family thing.

But there's a cave involved, so maybe we can see if there's like anywhere we can find caves?

Re: GOTHAM

[personal profile] widenessofthesea 2021-01-27 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
...so it's that kind of thing, huh.

Well, we're not going to find caves in a city downtown like this. If they're about, they'd probably be on the outskirts or a waterfront, unless you actually mean subway tunnels.
protectshisown: (Map making)

Re: GOTHAM

[personal profile] protectshisown 2021-01-27 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
No. Like real cave. It's a really big one, so yeah, waterfront is probably the best bet if there's no mountains nearby.

City this big, has to have docks for trade, right? [It makes sense to him.]
widenessofthesea: (by loving custom lightly)

Re: GOTHAM

[personal profile] widenessofthesea 2021-01-27 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
Well, city like this, it's hard to tell if there's sea air. Wouldn't surprise me if it did, though.

This also looks like the kind of city you don't ask for directions in, though. Not really a friendly one.

...do you remember how you got here, by the way?

Re: GOTHAM

[personal profile] protectshisown 2021-01-27 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
...no.

But tracking distances got hard in the dream like world game before....

[Listen, after Luci and the VORE ROCK GENOCIDE RUN BULLSHIT, anything makes sense for Ideal World.]

And just because people are surly doesn't mean they won't answer.

[And he's gonna walk out in the street and see if he can get anyone's attention.] Hey, do you know where the docks are?

They look at you like you're insane, to be honest.

Why are you talking to them?

Re: GOTHAM

[personal profile] widenessofthesea 2021-01-27 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, it's New York City.

[Listen, this is not a new look for him to get.]

New in town. So, docks?

Re: GOTHAM

[personal profile] idolpro 2021-01-27 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
"Don't you know how to google?"
protectshisown: (Awkard getting worse)

Re: GOTHAM

[personal profile] protectshisown 2021-01-27 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
Google?

[He pulls out. His phone???? Does he have his phone? WILL HIS PHONE LET HIM GOOGLE DOCKS NEAR HIM????]

Re: GOTHAM

[personal profile] idolpro 2021-01-27 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
The approximate google response is, "This city has docks in real life, but this is a game, dumbass."

[ she's just looking over his shoulder. ]

Aha.

Well, that explains a few things.

[ she's googling "okay, smartass, where do we go from here" ]

Re: GOTHAM

[personal profile] idolpro 2021-01-27 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
Google has loaded a route for you.






It is leading you back the way you came.

[Why does my phone say Night Fury????]

...huh. Thanks, this may help.

[To random NPC because this is how it be.]

['Well, if not docks, and we've been to the graves, then how about how to find Robin, Batman, or the cave where Batman works out of?']

[It's good to have options, okay.]

Re: GOTHAM

[personal profile] idolpro 2021-01-27 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
It just points back the way you came for "Robin."

It points out to the street ahead for "Batman."
