Week 5: April 29th - May 3rd



Fifth Week
Everything's getting worse. Rose Nylund and Frasier Crane murdered Jughead Jones during the event Jughead worked so hard to organize. Given some of the townspeople were in attendance, it didn't give a good impression -- if the visitors did this when trying to be good people and get along with Cartesio, then how will they behave once they get into destroying everything? The cruel method of Jughead's death also left everyone quite horrified, too.

That may be why it's no surprise the town's quiet unrest is slowly turning into real, tangible fury.

During the week, from time to time stones break some of the windows of the motel, looking outside shows a random passerby running away. Graffiti is left on the walls: 'SEE IF YOU LIKE THIS' 'MURDERERS' 'YOU'RE GOING TO DESTROY US ALL', and other similar messages. Some of the store owners hesitate when the visitors approach, but they don't refuse service because money is always nice.

The Sergeant's pervasive influence is starting to cover not only you, but also the entire town of Cartesio. After all, everything that's happening to you and the motel? It's the result of what you and the other visitors have done.

In the lobby of the motel there's a few more brochures, and the maps have been updated once again.

[WELL SHE MIGHT HAVE BEEN TACKLED BY KEITH BUT if he doesn't resist she'll definitely be trying to get both their asses out.

If he does though he can go on his own!!!

The door's open! Everyone out! [Gerard starts flapping around, trying to make sure all the stragglers are getting out as well.]

No!

[ She's so upset but also angry the moment she manages to get outside, falling onto her knees, and just crying. Sakura hates this and she's a mixture of emotions-- angry, upset, and torn.

It doesn't matter that she's going to stay close to the fire in spite of it all. Because she knew it.

She knew this wasn't going to end well, and she hates this, she hates all of it and she couldn't do a single thing to stop the fire herself.

Sakura feels so utterly useless in this very moment and it's going to be hard to usher her away from here as the fire burns in the diner. ]

[once Osomatsu's made sure Sakura is safe, he turns his head to look back at the fire.

why. why is the Sergeant doing this? why does he want the town against them so badly.

under his breath, he mutters]
Shit.

[Speaking of stragglers, Niwatori is one of the last to make it out - turns out when she's all on her own, her sense of direction isn't that good. Once outside, she gives a distasteful look at the smoldering building as she puts an immense amount of effort into brushing soot out of her feathered cape. She's too polite to do this herself, but Osomatsu's cursing is certainly a mood.]

I don't think we're going to be able to talk our way out of this one...
quickpersuader: (around and begin)

[Kino releases a breath, watching it all go up in flames for a moment before turning to return to the motel.

Mission accomplished.

[ NOPE FUCK THIS

Bolin is going to try and earthbend any dirt and smother the fire ]

[ good things at growing up with a brother who has fire powers: you kinda learn quickly that if you have earth powers, you counteract that.

but he's earthbending as much as he can in order to get the fire put out

and once that's done, he's going to bend some more earth to further support the structure ]

[personal profile] unfashionably 2018-11-01 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
Damn... This is bad. [ He was gonna be the last one out anyway so—is there a fire extinguisher here? If so, he's definitely gonna try using it to put out the fire. ]
unfashionably: brows furrowed, angry (someone's turning the handle)

[personal profile] unfashionably 2018-11-01 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
[ Unfortunately, he's really not gonna leave the building unless it's crazy obvious because he's looking for it in here. Tragic, someone else's gonna have to grab it instead. ]

[After leaving the diner with Kino, Keith spots the fire extinguishers that've been left outside ... and well? The next couple of steps of action are just obvious, aren't they?

He'll grab as many extinguishers as he can carry inside and runs back inside to try assist with damage control. Spotting Sting
still inside, he'll drop one of them by the guy's feet.
]

Here!

[Then he's heading into the kitchen to try and put out the fire there.]
unfashionably: (look i edited the blood out of this one)

[personal profile] unfashionably 2018-11-01 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
[ ?! That's unexpected but not unwanted! With a grin, he picks up the fire extinguisher! ] Thanks!

[ Okay, if Keith is taking the kitchen he'll take the seats and supplement Bolin's earthbending. Good work, Bolin! Good work, Keith! ]

[The thanks are completely lost on him, really. The earth's helping keep the fire contained pretty effectively, but just because the place isn't an inferno doesn't mean that being three steps away from being an inferno is actually all that better.

There just aren't a whole lot of things running through his mind as he works on putting out the flames in the kitchen. It's hard to breathe from all the smoke, hard to see, but it's all under control. Getting there anyway.

Until a jet of blue flames sets a corner of the kitchen ablaze again, and this time Keith's focus wavers and he can only stare at this with a sense of despair. It's a feeling that he doesn't have time for, but all the same ... what are they doing here?< What's he doing here? Not the time. Keith shakes himself out of it, coughing.

Sting -- Sting if you[re there, I could use some here!

[ Well there's only one thing to do. The diner is already burning, so on his way out he sends a few streams of blue fire to help it along. That's still being helpful, right.

Dabi's not sticking around afterward, so have fun everyone else. ]

[personal profile] tuffguy 2018-11-01 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
[ ok, that's it.

he's already earthbending, so when dabi sends a few streams of blue fire at the already burning diner, bolin is responding in in kind by sending a rock right at dabi's head

this is having fun, right? ]
amburere: (₣ØɄⱤ₮Ɏ-Ø₦Ɇ)

[personal profile] amburere 2018-11-01 04:56 am (UTC)(link)
[ It totally is. The rock isn't something he's expecting, so he only barely manages to send up a plume of flame in time to intercept it. This is how you get lava folks, nice blue lava.

There's the temptation to just run at Bolin and turn this into a full fight, but he's not stupid. So instead Dabi just waves like an asshole and sends one more jet of blue fire at the kitchen area. Good luck putting that room out. And he's gonna make to leave for real now. ]
