finchThe thing about the City is that it's incredibly easy to get there by accident, much more than most people think. A turn through a place where reality is a little squishy, an office building with an extra hallway, an underground walkway you discover by accident, sometimes even a door that just, for some reason, has decided it doesn't feel like depositing you where it ought. Lots of times people wander through the City and out the other side and never even notice aside from a little discomfort in the back of their mind.
Sometimes reality is a little more of a soft cheese than usual, however, and there's a sudden influx in one or another part of the City. Usually when this happens it's one of the busier parts of town but...
Well, today you happen to take a wrong turn, or a door that doesn't go quite like it should, and you find yourself in a building that almost looks abandoned. There's no telling whether that rug has been untouched for a hundred years or a thousand, the tapestries on the walls are faded and the silks are not so much moth-eaten as simply falling victim to entropy. As you continue on, though, you come to a knot of rooms that feel lived in. A kitchen still smells of spices, a small library has books unfolded on a desk with no sign of dust, an empty room has a polished floor and smells of sweat.
What must be the main room is clearly maintained, with clean, if cracked, stone floors and polished mahogany furniture. The floor is covered with scattered glass pieces and the occasional sparking light. A redheaded young man is bent over, trying to gather them up and not having the best luck at it.
Well. Now what?
(Hello and welcome to the summer roleplay! Please keep hands and feet inside at all times. You get Robin because I don't have a Jian icon right now. Oops. I'll try to fix that later.)
