GRAVEYARD ✨

POPULATION: GHOST TOWN

You die - and then you wake up.

For a second, it feels as though you can't breathe, and then your head breaks the surface. You crawl out of a pool of blood and into a large, crystalline room. Moving images play across the crystal walls, and if you watch close enough, you'll realize that you're seeing the land of the living; a familiar space station with familiar faces. You can watch these images for as long as you'd like - there are several very large benches (as in, you have to climb them to sit on them) around the room for you to rest on while you do.

Regardless of how you died, it seems as though you're not quite gone completely. You're in one piece, at least. That's good news. However, your surroundings are not exactly what you remember.

When you exit the first room, a bleak, empty city sprawls out ahead of you.

The city itself is large. The framework of it seems to tower higher and higher than you can see, up into the black opal sky that shivers and curls every so often. A river entirely made of blood runs through the city, winding around buildings and ending at the crystal room. The most noticeable thing about the buildings themselves is the fact that thorny vines made of pure white steel dig into the walls and floor, cracking the foundations.

The residential building is worn down and old. It's two floors, and has a few small studio apartments built for one or two people to live in. The beds are extremely uncomfortable. It has a communal area downstairs, but the TV is broken, and the couches are torn apart. Sometimes, this building feels obscenely hot in temperature, and smells like rotten eggs.

The grocery store is your typical convenience store. There's a large selection of food in this area, but it all tastes the same - like chalk. On top of this, every so often there will be bloodstains on the walls, the floor, and the displays. They change in size and location, each time you enter the store.

The clothing store is thrifty in nature. All the clothes here are uncomfortable and scratchy, and don't fit quite right. While you're here, time feels... weird. Distorted, almost dreamy. As you're picking out clothes and trying them on (no money needed, just take what you want), you swear you can hear a gunshot in the distance.

Enjoy your time in this city, and remember...your story isn't quite over yet.

HAUNTINGS

[probe]

For an opportunity to haunt the living in some way, please submit threads of your character partaking in some sort of activity in the graveyard involving their indulgences. The indulgences do not necessarily have to be elaborate, but so long as your characters are actively engaging in these activities and doing more than simple small-talk the threads will count. You may only submit one thread per character per week! So Character A and B can submit a thread, but neither can submit a thread with Character C. We will take a total of 5 threads max per week.

To be eligible to submit, threads must be at least 30 linear comments long (no threadjacking, thread-splitting, etc) and be engaging in some sort of activity that fits the setting/indulging with the OOC intention of it being a haunt thread. Threads must be submitted by Friday 3pm EST/12pm PST. Once it is submitted, you will receive a mod response to go over your options to haunt the living; once that has been hammered out, an "A THING" toplevel will go up on the living side. A thread can only be submitted once, so all participants in a thread should agree on the haunting.
