tinstar: (avoidance)
Deputy US Marshal Givens ([personal profile] tinstar) wrote in [community profile] singillatim2026-01-04 11:11 am

All the world a frozen snowglobe of despair

Who: Raylan Givens and OTA
What: Pre-Crisis reaction + Raylan venturing in public post murder | Event threads to be added later
When: January
Where: Milton; will update if needed

Closed to Tim Gutterson
Closed to Tim Gutterson
Screams were not normally how Raylan woke up, even from his worst dreams, but tonight was different. He was drenched in sweat, and had his heart beating out of his chest like normal, and the terror that fuels the scream is the same terror that sends Raylan up and out of bed with a primal scramble. The wood of the floor feels like stone until the dresser edge digs into his side, the pain snapping him back to reality. He wasn't in the forest, wasn't getting chased by the Darkwalker. Wasn't falling to his death.

"The end of all things," he pants without realizing it. The fear was pushing him to get ready, to get dressed, get his gun, to run. It battled with every logical thought that could manage to take breath. It took him a half second longer to really see Tim and as soon as Tim registers, he's moving again to sit on the bed with a hand out to take whatever part of Tim he could. He felt wild again, scared and hellbent on survival for them both.

"Did you-" Had Tim seen the same thing? The choices. Had Tim taken one of Enola's offers? Could he? Raylan himself could not, no matter if he wanted to - his body froze in the dreams at those points, keeping him still and unchoosing. Too many weird things about the dreams here for him to focus too much on that one.

Whatever Tim's choices, they'd figure it out together. Nothing would change.


In Milton - Early January
Around Town/Community Hall

Raylan's Stetson was firmly on his head today as he moved through what used to be daily chores for Milton, using the brim to help not meet anyone's eye for too long. Normally, he was fine with putting a man 6 foot under; primarily because said men always gave him a reason that was justified if not in the actual law, then in the common sense security of self and home. 'Home' was a word he was fine bending to include what he needed to at any given time, but no gymnastics could justify what he had done to that poor boy. He didn't know how many people had seen or heard what had happened, but someone has to have cleared the body from the street. How hard had they all had to become here.

Nothing to do but try to go back to normal. Delivery of firewood happens again, at any house he know is occupied, like a cowboy Firewood Santa. If he was right, if everyone in Milton had the dream he had, then firewood might be a little pointless. the end of all things But the Darkwalker wasn't here yet and he didn't know how else to prepare right now.

What he did know was that the Community Hall was going to remain an important place for them. Maybe he can pay off some small fraction of the debt he owes in working on it's repairs and general weather maintenance. So he could be found with a hammer, pulling nails out of broken boards for straightening later. At least when he was working with his hands, his mind didn't have the unrestricted leash to wander itself back into total despair.

[closed] hey ma that weird-looking cat is back

WHO: Geralt of Rivia and Angeal
WHAT: Geralt endures the worst of his dragon transformation while camped out in the orchard
WHERE: The orchard with the weird apples
WHEN: January, because Geralt is an asshole
WARNINGS: Geralt's self-destructive tendency to endure injury without complaint or aid. Fairly graphic depictions of body horror.

SUMMARY: The dragon transformation is inevitable; its shittiness is exacerbated by Geralt's stubborn determination to endure it with the stoic suffering that is a witcher's lot.

'Whose is the dying flame?' asked the witcher. 'Yours,' Death replied. )

Who: Miss Huang + YOU!
What: general arrival catchall / event-related threads to be added in later.
When: December - January.
Where: Milton for now, may add more later.
Content Warnings: None explicitly, but themes of her canon content warnings may make an appearance in my introspection for her.

Note: I did have Miss Huang on a previous TDM; however, I've apped her in now from a later canonpoint. For that reason, I'll be clean-slating that TDM arrival and bringing her in fresh for new interactions!

TEST DRIVE MEME #6

Arrival
ALT TEXT

Broken Palace by Jonathan Eng
0:07 / 1:13
▶︎
During 2014 Jonathan Eng composed the soundtrack for interactive narrative experience The Sailor’s Dream, consisting of a mix of instrumental tracks and a seven-part musical story told in folk song-form.

Like all who come through the summoning circle, your arrival is heralded by a dream. Waking up is a dizzying, disorienting thing... and possibly made worse by the fact that you aren't alone.

Right after you appear, so does someone else. If you're lucky*, they'll simply blink into existence by your side. If you're not, there's a chance they spawned below or above you. That's one way to make a memorable first impression. Best untangle yourselves and get things figured out.

If you're extremely unlucky*, instead of another person being brought through the summoning circle, it's a monster. The creature buzzes menacingly and immediately darts at any potential fresh blood it can.

Some welcome this is. If you aren't the fighting type, hopefully someone nearby is. Eventually, one of the local Town guards will slay the monster before it - and you - cause too much trouble or lose too much blood.

HAPPY "NAME DAY"!
ALT TEXT

While last year offworlders were still a bit too new to do much more than celebrate with fireworks and fanfare for the new year, this year there's certainly much more opportunity for revelry. Despite the hardships and uncertainty of the latter part of last year, people appear optimistic and ready to have a bit of fun.

Now that Town is a regular place on the map with more trade routes running through it, it means a lot more cultural diversity and exchange. Around this time of year especially, alcohol and luxury items will be a bit easier to acquire. It's the time for good will and new opportunity, after all, and so merchants are happy to share. For a reasonable cost, anyway!

People from all over the continent of Kamurkia have brought the ways that they ring in the new year. One of the most popular - and perhaps most relevant the Dragonbonded - is the tradition of a "Name Day." Since Town is a newer settlement, the people who have helped build it up deserve to be honored for generations to come. It is a way for offworlders and natives who have since settled here to leave their mark.

Around the outer edge of Town, a short brick wall is being erected. Each brick has a name written on it. Construction of it will stop once everyone's names who live in Town are written, but each new person that arrives will be encouraged to add their name, a brick, and grow the wall through the ages. Even should offworlders leave, their presence and importance will now be memorialized.

This is not mandatory but it is certainly encouraged! It's understandable that some Dragonbonded might feel conflicted, considering their circumstances, and be unsure about if they should contribute. Regardless of if someone's plan is to stay or not though, this is just a way to leave your name to be remembered someday.
Pie Week
ALT TEXT
Another tradition that seems to be gaining traction in Town, especially with its well-known bakery, is Pie Week. For the first week of the year, there is so. much. pie.

People bake it, eat it, throw it, and do all manner of things involving pie that one can think of to celebrate. Although this means the demand for pie is higher than usual, it also means new varieties are in circulation at feasts and pop-up festivities. Be careful to not get hit by a stray thrown pie! But if you do, hopefully it's one you like.

Should anyone attend one of these pie-centric celebrations, they can find the following pies (but are certainly not limited to just these):
    Cranberry Pie - This pie is a seasonal favorite for its not-too-sweet taste and vibrant colors. Be careful though since slices will stain someone's lips tongue a vibrant red. But isn't that just kind of silly? After eating this pie, one might feel more giddy and playful than usual.

    Shepherd's Pie - A classic savory pie that is a hit around the holidays. It's a good option for someone who prefers meat instead of sweets. It will tap into primal instincts of a Dragonbonded though. While open to interpretation what this means, they might find themselves more inclined to hunt prey instead of shop for it, be aggressive and territorial towards other Dragonbonded (this is your pie, okay!), and so on.

    Pecan Pie - A deliciously sweet and sticky treat! Although, it might be a little... too sticky. For a short time after eating a slice of this pie, Dragonbonded will find themselves stuck to whoever they come in contact with next. It shouldn't last more than a few minutes, thankfully, but it might lead to some awkward situations. Sorry about that!

    Chicken Pot Pie - Another meatier option, this one's effect is fairly simple. Dragonbonded will now be able to speak with animals for a brief time. Well, okay- One animal. Chickens. And you won't believe some of the things they have to say now that they can be heard.

As one might be able to imagine, The Fae got a little involved with some of the pie. You're free to come up with more options though and what funny effects they might have! The world is your pie.


Dance of Dragons
ALT TEXT
Although many worlds and cultures have a "dragon dance" in some iteration, not many are quite as literal as here in Kamurkia! Even when dragons seemingly left the land, people in large city-states kept their memory alive through the art of ritualistic dances that showcased the bond between dragon and man. Although uncertain about Dragonbonded last year and most of them still growing into their scales, this year... It's your time to shine!

Dragonbonded are dressed up in traditional, customary clothing and randomly paired up to perform a dance during the changeover from the old year to the new. Although not given any real instruction or time to prepare, they are reassured that's kind of the point! This dance is meant to be instinctual and a way to synchronize with your Dragon Soul in an authentic way... no matter how awkward it might seem.

You're also connecting to your partner's inner dragon as well!

Even if they are a newcomer to Town and being a Dragonbonded, they will feel a stirring of this soul that will temporarily cause them to shift into their full form. And you are both expected to! This dragon dance is, in fact, a dance to shift not only from the past year to the current one but from human shape to fully dragon and complete the dance.

While not required of all Dragonbonded, denizens of Town and from all over would be delighted to see dragons take shape once more. In this time especially, many people are looking for a bit of hope. No pressure though!
