PUBLIC CHANNEL | DAY 59

[fortuneglass]

This is Carly- the Wardrobe Manager, [
Carly announces, not long after it's been made clear that a Number of supervisors have now left the premises. Her voice is rather uncharacteristically serious, and perhaps even cold.] I know I'm hardly the Warden, or the Nightrider- but they left a warning, and an order.

Everyone presently within Carnival Grounds-please, check in, NOW. Do NOT leave the Carnival grounds, for that matter, short of a Supervisor themself giving that order!

If I see anyone try...

....I will be making sure you stay. This isn't the time for heroics..!

How does one "check in"? (He sounds utterly at ease, unmoved by the chaos and pain.)

laughs ahh, here I was planning to tag his log once work settled...

[fortuneglass]

[Hey! She doesn't know this voice! For a brief moment, Carly is back to a rather typical, cheery and bubbly tune.] You're doing it now~ All you do is say your name, where you are, and you're set for ch-

[wait a minute someone new she doesn't know that voice-] ...HEEHHHH!! W-wait, for someone just starting out you're taking this pretty well..!!

DO ALL THE THINGS YOU WANT <3

[haides]

(Well that seems simple enough!) I am Hades. I reside in Trailer 22.

(With a pet mouse. Don't ask. Oh and Papyrus.)

I see no reason to become upset.

I PROBABLY WILL STILL mbby not with Carly necessarily though ahaha

[fortuneglass]

Hohhhh, Hades..? Like that greek guy, I guess...

A-hm-!

Fair enough, not everyone has the same scale for...trauma, I guess. Thank you for checking in then~ And definitely don't leave the grounds for now.

We can probably expect to face at least two people under mind-control or something already.. [She groans, sighing on the other end.]

I look forward to it :3

[haides]

Greek is one culture. I existed before and I will exist after.

(Poor insects. Hades makes a soft, amused sound.)

I've never known a trauma that affects me. (Because he stood above, below - detached.) What will they do?

yay~

[fortuneglass]

Ehhhh....

[Hoooo, does she try and humble something that sounds like a proper god or....

....Nah let's not do that, she's still a fly next to a proper god-] ...Take it from me, the guys out there are...well, they're big. Really big, in the scheme of the multiverse, [She coughs, scratching her cheek on the other end of the radio.] ...and they really don't like the Ringmaster, hooboy-

A-Anyway! Assuming you were being literal, they'll probably use them against us! Information, hostage...it could be a lot of things, but the point is we need to actually get most of our people who are't kidnapped back here somehow, so that we can...well.

Figure out how to get the ones who were kidnapped back before they're used to hurt most of us.

...Or, well, anyone who can be hurt.

[A beat.] It'll be hard to keep things going if everyone around us is either dead or critically injured.

[textsfromhotland]

Uhhh, I'm here! I mean, Alphys is here! And I'm n-not going anywhere!

I-is there anything we can do while we're here...?

[fortuneglass]

Good question!

[uh] Right now, big priority is making sure no one leaves.

After that, it's keeping in contact with everyone outside, and keeping track of who's still around! and...

....We'll go from there.

[She's bad at this.]

[textsfromhotland]

Huh. I guess I could, like, lay in the middle of the front entrance?

[insidescoop]

..Ahhh...do you want to just help me do head count instead? I feel like people could fly over you if they wanted to pass that...

Unless you have like, a net or something..?

[blushfully]

Oh, um! He-hello! My name is Shiemi Moriyama and I... ( really new. really confused. kinda freaked out, maybe? )

I'm new, um, very new but if I can help then please let me know.

[insidescoop]

HEHH!?!?

Wh-What's with you guys coming out right n-

Oh right she doesn't control those does she... [DAMMIT TIME GUY-]

Well! First, thank you for checking in~! I don't know where you work under, but that's fine for now. The important thing right now, is sticking to the Carnival, making sure no one else leaves the Carnival, and from there, fortifying the defenses!

...In probably the only way we can, right now...mmm...

[blushfully]

M-mm... of course. Is there anywhere in particular that I should go? I... I'm assigned to be a nurse if that helps. ( never mind most of her medical knowledge comes in the forms of plants and wounds of a demonic nature. )

A-and I'm not really strong but I'm a hard worker. I'll help put up whatever defenses that I can physically help with and Nee... he can help too and he's a lot stronger than me.

[reflash]

This is Yukio Okumura checking in. [And now that that's out of the way.]

Shiemi-san, please report to the medical tent. [Why is she here? Who let this happen?]

[fortuneglass]

AH! Oh, you know each other!?

W-Well! [Ahem, addressing both now-]

My hope is that we can get people back more than anything, but from what we're hearing on the broadcast so far, they're not going to come back in the best condition- be ready to help with anyone hurt, but make sure the place is well defended if you can handle both!

Only if you can handle both though-our doctor is out there, and I don't think he's in prime condition...

[blushfully]

( talk about being hit with a fistful of feelings. )

Yuki-chan! O-okay, I'll be there soon.

[exaomori]

Moriyama?!

[ what the hell when did she get here why right now ]

Where are you right now?

[blushfully]

( did all of them get brought to this place? )

It's... it's a wooded area near some trailers.

[exaomori]

[ Better than nothing. ]

Do you know the way to the med tent? I’ll escort you if not.

[Conveniently, Shiemi should be a perfect babysitter for Yukio while Rin’s stuck in the shadows. ]

[blushfully]

N-no, I've tried to stay in one place until I could get a better understanding of everything. ( spoiler alert: everything is crazy. )

Nee and I will wait here for you.

when you forget to hit sendddd

[exaomori]

Shura here. If you need help enforcin’ that, let me know.

rip...

[fortuneglass]

Got it! And thank you!! I might have fire but I can't cover the whole area...

[She coughs. No more muttering!] The important thing is keeping people together- but more than that, if you see any shadows breaking up out there, radio immediately!

If there's a way back in, we need people back in!

[It's probably rather clear that ideas are coming On The Fly for Carly, but to be fair the closest to security and watch she ever was...was, well. Scout.]

[exaomori]

[It's very clear to Shura that this isn't Carly's forte. But Shura can work with it--Carly has the rank and she's going with what Sans said. Shura can enforce if she needs and wing it if she must.]

Gotcha. I'll keep an eye out on the perimeter--I can't be the only one left here, seriously--and I'll contact you if somethin' comes up.

What's goin' on with those shadows, anyway?

feat. Things I found out Today about those shadows oops

[insidescoop]

Yeah! And...it's hard to say, honestly...since they only..

..show up...when you leave...

[Spooky. But the fact is, all these shadows everyone OUTSIDE is dealing with at the ends of corridors, just. Can't be seen from the Carnival itself. Yikes.] ....Mostly we're taking the word of everyone stuck on it, since it's pretty obvious they're not playing around about that...

w h o o p s oh well

[exaomori]

Seriously? What a pain.

[But since there isn't any reason to believe that the danger is exaggerated or that it couldn't start slipping into the carnival, Shura will assume the worst.]

I thought this place was going to be quiet, sheesh.
