The Story Thus Far:

The Once-ler has successfully freed Martel Yggdrasil from captivity, bringing her to the woods for safety. Martel, afraid of the retribution this might bring, pleaded Once-ler to tell no one that she has escaped. Once-ler then returned to the Resistance, only telling Ino about what had happened. Martel meanwhile traveled the woods alone until she met up with Zack Fair, the now embittered mercenary that's been doing what he can to stay alive and free in this setting.

However it wasn't as though Martel's disappearance went without notice. Mithos noticed his sister's absence and has set out all stops to find her. Whether or not you know of Martel's release, it's hard not to notice the larger number of angels around - even if some appear less than intimidating. Because of this, the small traveling group of Zelos Wilder, Arya Stark and Genis Sage have decided to travel to the mountains to use the stronger winds for safe haven from any lifeless angels until they can stronger.

Meanwhile back in the Resistance, efforts to fight back still persist. The inventors are having struggles in creating better keycrests for their loved ones  that have been transformed into angels. In the less tech part of the Resistance, Tsuna and Allen continued their efforts to revert angels back to their former selves. They were successful in converting Mithos's former assassin Sheena, but due to some mishaps Maladict escaped from their attempts.

Oh and Garry moped.

With all these different teams going on, what will be the next thing to occur? Will things turn in favor to the Resistance, or will it only get worse? Will Garry ever stop moping? Will any of you remember to use the damn journal? Only time will tell...

[OOC: This post has two services, first as a recap as you seen above, as well as a mass open post for all the on-goings you rather not make an entire post for! Feel free to use this post as such or simply make your own post in the comm, it matters not! As for amount of time, while the game is very flexible we'll set it to be still a few days after the staring point of the game cause why not]

RESISTANCE HQ

[save_the_souls]

[Because it forever lives on...]

FOREST

[save_the_souls]

[Still hanging out in the forest? Have fun! Just watch out for angels- the patrols have increased thanks to Once-ler]

CASTLE

[save_the_souls]

[You know, the place where all crazy evil shenanigans happen. ]

MOUNTAINS

[save_the_souls]

[Due to the stronger winds and higher altitudes- you guys are pretty safe from mindless angels. Though on the other hand, there's probably less food to be found and it's colder. Been hiding out in the caves? Singing the sound of music? What's up?]

THE TOWN

[save_the_souls]

[The quiet little village that is now super quiet because EVERYONE IS DEAD]

[innominata]

[ I CLAIM THIS CORNER IN THE NAME OF AWESOME. And Genis.

Arya has decided the wind makes for excellent conditions for training. She skips from stone to stone smooth as summer silk, her arms held out for balance. She hums quietly under her breath. ]

Barefoot. Surefoot. Lightfoot.

[wilder]

[Zelos meanwhile is sitting nearby, trying to use his blade to see if he can get a good reflection on his hair. He does hear the muttering]

What about feet?

[save_the_souls]

[Allen is in the medical area of the headquarters, currently doing what he can to fix his own arm until he can ask Ino to help him out with it. Though you know, setting your own arm is nowhere near as easy as setting someone else]

Ah- ow!

Come on, just a little more...

[innominata]

[ Arya hops atop a large rock and twirls to face him. ]

Whose feet?

[ninjainviolet]

[Nearby is one former Killer Angel, trying desperately not to respond to the cry of pain and wake up. After all, she has no right to be concerned about others--not anymore.]

Let me sleep...

[heal_theworld]

[Martel knows the patrols have increased. That's why she's alone, still with Once-Ler's coat, and slightly better clothes-a tight t-shirt and a short miniskirt. She's currently hiding in a tree, watching the forest floor for anyone. She sighs.]

Once-Ler, it was really silly to rescue me. But... [She pats the pocket with the truffala seed in it.] Thank you. I'll keep this safe for you.

[save_the_souls]

[He freezes when he hears Sheena. Oh crap he didn't mean to wake her. This time when he tries to set his arm, he bites his lip to try not to make any noises]

[wilder]

I dunno, whatever you were saying.

[innominata]

I was singing.

[wilder]

...Right. Nevermind~

[innominata]

[ Rolling her eyes, she resumes humming. This time it soon adopts a tune as she begins humming "The Bear and the Maiden Fair." Occasionally she forgot she has a listener and sings quietly. ]

A bear! A bear! All black and brown and covered with hair!

[whichwayyoulean]

[You know what's really bad about having a purpose to keep you going in a horrific wasteland? When you actually fulfil what you set yourself out to do. What do you do afterwards?

Try to get on as best you can, it turns out. The Once-ler toyed with the idea of heading out to the dead zone, living the rest of his time in Paradisa in safety. But the years have changed him somewhat, what would have been a very tempting offer has become a second best. Still, it's not as easy now he's got Martel out. Now he hasn't got that single thing to focus on, he has to try and throw his attention wherever he can and hope it can keep his mind off the hell he's living in long enough to pass the day away.

For now, that's working on keycrests. He's sitting in his quiet corner of the caves, working away and generally hoping he'll be left alone. Which of course never happens]

[ninjainviolet]

[Nice try, Allen, but thanks to her damnable enhanced senses, she can hear those little noises--especially now that she's fully awake, but still has her eyes closed. Even her own voice feels loud to her after all that time not speaking.]

What are you doing?

[save_the_souls]

[There's a pause before he replies. He keeps his voice low- he knows she can hear him and rather not cause her more pain while she's still adjusting]

Trying to set my arm. I fell from a tree earlier.

[optimystic]

[Thud...

....

crackle thud...

Indeed, while you're in the forest, you might hear rocks tumbling around. There's the 'thud' of small to medium sized rocks being thrown, although it's unclear where the rocks are coming from. If you happen to roll a high perception, you might notice a girl halfway up a tree, throwing rocks so that they land in the clearing below. She pauses in her rock throwing...]

Pst- hey Zoe!

[she speaks in a whisper, although she makes it loud enough to carry to wherever Zoe might be]

See? I think we can use this to check if there's angels nearby! They'll be drawn to the sound of the rocks, but they won't know where we are. Pretty clever, right?

[yes, random person, you just walked in and overheard Maya's GENIUS plan]

[ninjainviolet]

[She opens one eye to look at him, appreciating his effort for her.]

You did what?

[someoneto_carry]

[Zoe is in a nearby tree, checking her gear. She seems pretty comfortable up here, she's used to tighter spots. Though she'll sure hesitate at Maya's plan]

So long as they don't look up...sure.

[save_the_souls]

I fell from a tree. I thought the branch would hold my weight, but...

It was rather clumsy of me.

[optimystic]

Even if they look up, they can't see is if we're covered by the leaves. If they do come into the clearing we just stop throwing rocks, stay still, and wait until they leave. It's foolproof!

[honestly, she thinks it's a kind of dumb idea, but her tone doesn't reveal that]

[ninjainviolet]

[Sighs and opens the other eye. Only then does she notice the cuffs on her wrists. Makes sense, considering how she felt earlier--and still feels.]

And there's no one else around to help?
