][ AUDIO | Glass City

[Starts with a strange sound, a crackle or a tear maybe, masked by a burst of static.]

Heywaitwhere--

[Running over sand isn't very easy-- the unsteady surface giving way slows him down as much as anyone else. Running over glass, going is a little easier, but stopping...]

Whathappenedtoallthe--

There's a loud, resounding crash and shatter, the tinkle of shards spraying all over the place as he doesn't quite vault a park bench in time, followed by a heavy thud and much closer crack of plastic as he (and the device in his pocket) hits the ground.]

--sand?


[ooc; broke the speed limit, now laying somewhere on his bruised and confused butt. Open to action if one person would like to find him, network otherwise <3]

Comments

Also hanging in the glass city

[deadly_legacy]

Tommy? What was that sound? Are you okay?

[team_sociopath]

I kicked a bench.

What's going on? Where are you?

[deadly_legacy]

I'm home. Or something like it.

[team_sociopath]

Where'd all the sand go?

[deadly_legacy]

It's gone. [She's thinking of the way things would break and sand would appear.] It all just turned to glass a few days ago. At least here.

[team_sociopath]

It's not gone, it's just... somewhere else.

I dunno what happened.

[deadly_legacy]

Yes, trapped with some of the others and those...animals.

[team_sociopath]

How do you get back, though?

[deadly_legacy]

Back? I have no idea. How did you get here from there?

[team_sociopath]

I have no idea. One minute it was the middle of the desert, the next I'm here.

[deadly_legacy]

...Maybe it's part of the curse? Maybe everyone will start reappearing here.

[team_sociopath]

Could be. Is here better than there, though? I mean obviously there are ups but it's kinda... fragile.

[deadly_legacy]

There aren't any monsters, but you do have to be careful. It's still glass. How is everyone over there?

[team_sociopath]

Thirsty.

It's pretty bad, mostly people have like, banded together, and the Deities built a big shelter, but it's rough.

[prettyimpulsive]

You want to go back and help?

[team_sociopath]

Well, yeah. I sorta feel like I ditched everyone.

Besides, maybe I can get more people out, if I can figure out what happened. Maybe there's like, an invisible door I ran through.

[deadly_legacy]

If there is, maybe you can get back through it to the sand side? Have you tried running back the way you came?

[team_sociopath]

No luck so far.

[deadly_legacy]

I see...

There have already been days of this. Perhaps the curse will end shortly.

[team_sociopath]

Yeah. Like a week, it's crazy.

[deadly_legacy]

Any amount of time is too long for people to be in danger like that.

(OOC: Is he exaggerating? I thought it started on the 15-16th?)

[team_sociopath]

Which is why I wanna figure out how I got here. Maybe other people can, too.

[ooc; started on 15th, but it's 2 days in Sand for every 1 day in Glass. So from his perspective, no, but from hers it would seem off.]

[deadly_legacy]

Yes, all this glass makes things difficult, and breaking it is dangerous, but nothing has been attacking. It's just...more still and openly visible than usual.

(OOC: Ooooh, I missed that part.)

[team_sociopath]

No curses, huh?

[deadly_legacy]

There haven't been any yet that I've noticed except this one... Or do you think it isn't a curse?
