EVENT - Ripple and Warp IC log (part 1!)

ripple and warp
Hello and welcome to the IC log for Pluviosa's Fourth Wall event, Ripple and Warp!

In addition to providing information about how characters arrive on the new deck (whether they're existing passengers or not), this post also serves as a place where Fourth Wall characters can post top-levels without joining the game community.

Further information on Fourth Walls in general and the other accompanying OOC updates to the game can be found on the OOC information post here. This post also serves in lieu of a regular between-events Test Drive.

Finally, you may now start sending in your applications to keep your AU, CRAU, and so on characters around after the Fourth Wall! Be sure to note the minor changes to the Applications page (namely, the addition of an "AU information" section).

Without further ado - How did you get here? And more importantly, where is 'here' anyway?

existing characters

Whether or not characters remember falling asleep on the evening of Day 37, they wake up somewhere different on Day 38, lying on a couch in an almost-familiar room. The couch is similar to the ones in the lounge, though those with keen noses will note that the cushions don't smell the same - there's no scent of your fellow passengers, or of the faint hint of an unknown, arid place that first accompanied the clean furnishings the Ship dragged out.

The room isn't one you've been in before, either, but it's still clearly on the Ship somewhere - there's the familiar motion of the legs moving, and the overhead emergency lights (the only source of light initially in the room) are the same as the ones in the hallways on Fern that the Ship has been working so hard to restore. However, that doesn't mean that it's hard to see - indeed, considering the contents of the room, the low lighting might be a blessing in disguise.

It's full of mirrors.

Not only the sorts of mirrors that character would expect to find, the ones that have been missing from the Ship's bathrooms and other expected places, though there are certainly plenty of those in the room - but the walls, the door, and the ceiling are also all mirrors. Mirrors hang on a portion of the larger furniture in what appears to be the living room of a suite. It's not as dramatic as it could be, but aside from the couch characters wake up on, it's pretty close. The floor, at least, is not reflective mirrors, though it's not much less shiny - instead of the usual hotel-esque carpet of the suites, there's seamless stone tile in stormcloud grey, slight variations in the color indicating marble. And all of those reflective surfaces are perfectly clean - although it's possible to find dried spots of decay on the backs of the mirrors, overall, it seems as though time doesn't have claim on this part of the Ship, much less the Growth.

And of course, where there are mirrors, there are reflections.

Some of them - probably the majority - are normal, perfect mirrors of the person the character expects to see. Some of them are distorted, but in a normal, mundane way - funhouse mirrors among the panels on the walls, making you wide or skinny or warped.

And then some of them show reflections of you that are distorted, not as in bent, but as in there being something different about the you that's in them. Different clothes; different hair; different age; different species. Added scars, or missing ones; limbs missing, or replaced with something else. A completely unknown you in the mirror.

For the most part, these altered reflections act the way you would expect, imitating the movements of the rest of the reflections in the room. But sometimes they don't. Sometimes they climb out of the mirror - and whether they're friendly or not remains to be seen.

There's a note on the mirror-topped table next to the couch. In backwards writing that needs to be held up to a mirror to be read easily, it says:

Thanks for visiting! I'm sorry I couldn't be there to meet you, but there's just so many people here today!

I wonder if you'll get a chance to meet the real you?

Good luck!




new characters and visitors

For those who are new around here, the method of arrival is... a bit different. This applies equally to characters who are just here for the fourth wall (alternates of existing characters etc) or those who will be apped as permanent residents - there isn't a distinction to these categories until the end of the event.

These characters arrive with a first sensation of being pressed against a hard, glass surface - not unlike the whispers of sensation that haunted the existing passengers over the last few days. The difference is that this time, the glass you're pressed against isn't a horizontal floor or bed - it's vertical or at least mostly vertical, and you can tell which way is down.

Or, put another way: Newly arrived characters start their boatride on the wrong side of the mirrors that are packed away into the unknown deck. They are facing towards the real world side, the way they would if they were reflections made physical, but turning around and looking behind them is nearly impossible.

Indeed, there's a growing pressure forcing them against the glass barrier. It grows harder and harder to breathe, almost like drowning, or being crushed by water pressure -

Until, just when you think you can't survive any more, something gives way, and you stumble out of the mirror into the real world. It's not the glass breaking - it's more like forcing your way through a soap bubble or the membrane that sits inside an eggshell that separates the hard pieces from the white. Water, too, cascades down out of the mirror with you, splattering all over the floor, but it's just water, and it doesn't seem to have left more than a bit of surface dampness on you.

However, when characters turn around, they will find that while the glass is still in place and unbroken, the mirror will no longer reflect anything - not even the shine of light cast on the glass - rendering these mirrors completely black. This reflectivity stays on the puddle of water around your feet instead, which aggressively reflects the area around it even if taken elsewhere - even if poured into a cup. In motion, it's too transparent to be taken for mercury or silver, but when pooled undisturbed, it does not ripple in response to the motion of the ship. Only the actions of characters or other forces can cause ripples. Otherwise, it appears to be normal water.

Characters who are alternates of each other might come out of the mirrors while they're literally being reflected (a certain surprise for those who are on the normal side of the mirror doing the looking), but they might also just appear in rooms all by themselves, or in the presence of someone else they know (or think they know). Those who don't have any immediate connections among the current passengers are more likely to appear in some empty room, but ultimately this is left to player discretion.


shallower reflections

Not all reflections are as potentially friendly as those played by those of us on the player side of the screen, however. In addition to the "deeper" reflections played by real humans, who have or at least appear to have personalities and histories of their own, there are also "shallow" reflections. Unlike the Fourth Wall arrivals, shallow reflections can't be of characters who aren't present at the time - they only appear in response to characters looking into mirrors (whether those characters are existing residents or new arrivals).

The shallow reflections come out of the mirrors just like the Fourth Wall arrivals, but there's always something a little off about them. Some of them stay reversed like a reflection; some of them don't make any noise when they move and cannot speak; some of them come out of the mirrors with the funhouse-esque warped reflections and stay that way. Like their more 'real' counterparts, the mirrors the shallow reflections come out of turn completely flat, unreflective black; unlike their counterparts, they don't really hesitate in striding out, much less stumble and potentially collapse.

What do they want? To shove whoever they're a reflection of into the black mirror they came from. What happens if they succeed?

You die. I mean, probably. There's no way of knowing unless one of them does succeed, after all. If you want your character to die in this fashion, please let the mod team know. While we cannot guarantee that interesting things will happen to all characters (and those who are only here to visit for the Fourth Wall are not eligible), this may have permanent consequences for your character, take them out of play for longer ICly than a typical death, or impact other characters in the game beyond the typical levels of emotional harm. Or some combination of all three.

Fortunately, the shallow reflections only have physical strength on their side - they do not possess any powers of those they take the shapes of, and they can be killed in largely the same way as unremarkable flesh and blood humans. A killing blow causes them to collapse into the same hyper-reflective water as described above; the mirror they came out of remains black.

??? deck

The deck itself is open fully to character navigation. Like the lab specimen storage of Zinnia, this deck - whose name is not posted anywhere for characters to find easily - is clear of any signs of Growth, and manages to feel chilly even if you get up to the top deck where the sun is shining.

Or... Should be shining. Regardless of the weather on other deck dimensions, the skies above this deck are
always, at best, a cloudy, half-stormy grey. The air above hangs tense, like the clouds are waiting for something to happen. Unlike the other instances of Ship weather, you don't need Neuvillette's particular affinity with water to sense it - any character with empathic or telepathic powers will be able to feel the sense of looming, helpless frustration in the clouds.

The most notable feature of this deck, of course, is that it's full of mirrors. Indeed, it's not only the mirrors that are missing from the suite bathrooms, the public restrooms by the cafeteria, and so on - there are far more mirrors than the Ship would reasonably need to outfit the decks it has, even including the multidimensional nature of it. Mirrors hang from the walls, and then more mirrors lean against those, or against the other furnishings, or even against each other (since some of them are standing mirrors), and the groups against the walls are often five or six panels deep with the largest at the back the side of the glass panels of the Ship's sliding glass balcony doors. (Yes, those are also replaced by mirrors, reflective in both directions.) Tabletops are reflective in their own rights, and then littered with even more, antique-looking hand mirrors and makeup compacts and those little circular mirrors sold in bags by the dozen at the craft store, only an inch across.

Considering all the reflective surfaces, it might be a good thing that there is only emergency power supplied to this deck - enough to keep the guide lights on and ensure that the sliding doors (though not the elevators) are working, and that whatever system pumps water through the faucets and showers is still going. The water is all cold, however, and there isn't any food available on the deck so far as characters are able to find. In the place where characters are used to finding the cafeteria, there is instead a terrifying mirrored bar filled with empty bottles and glasses as well as - well. Take a guess.

With the exception of the sliding glass doors in the suites, the glass of windows and so forth seems to be what it should be - though it's more reflective than seems natural, too. Like Zinnia, the cleaniness of this deck means that characters have full run of it, all the way down to the lounge on the bottom of the Ship - which is the only place that isn't completely clean on this deck. The super-reflective water that pours out of the mirrors seems to have flowed down here at some point, where it sits, unaffected by the motion of the Ship, about an inch deep across the entire floor. This water is the only feature down in the bottom lounge - there is no furniture, in contrast to its Zinnia counterpart.

And on this floor, at the very bottom, and only this floor, the reflective water has the smell - only the smell, not any other qualities - of fresh blood.

The Ship will not answer characters here - although the terminals in the residential deck that can normally be used to communicate with it (in whatever limited capacity) are present, their screens are (of course!) mirrors, and unresponsive. There's also no signs of drones about, not even the basic roomba-like cleaning drones; there's no evidence that they've been here recently, either.

A follow-up log, in which the Ship manages to make contact with characters wherever they are, will be posted later (mod goal time is 2-3 weeks from now). That log will take place on Day 40 and will bring with it food (for everyone who has gotten very hungry by then) and drone assistance, but whether characters actually manage to escape at that point or later on on Day 42 is left open to the opinions of you, the players! Both current players and visitors will be able to vote in a Discord poll on the matter, to be posted in the Discord announcements channel tomorrow (after you've had the chance to sleep on this post and let it cook in your brains a little).

Happy playing! Questions can be asked on Discord or added to the usual questions header below this post.

"That doesn't mean you need to die. And-- a good mother would want her child to be alive and wouldn't make it a debt and a punishment." He's pretty sure. Not that he has a great deal of experience with good mothers. "I'm not going to-- lock you in a tower to stop you trying to save the world, but I'm going to do my best to follow, and to help keep you safe."
helborn: (you better not)

"I never claimed she was a good mother. I didn't grow up with her, I don't have any particular... emotional attachment to her."

Not like his father. His stomach churns at the thought of him still out there... doing whatever it is he wants.

"But the truth is I do owe her. The gods expect debts to be repaid."
airplaneskyward: (wet)

[personal profile] airplaneskyward 2025-02-05 04:56 am (UTC)(link)
"So you're just... resigned to dying because your mother's an asshole?" Is that what he's saying? Shang Beida is trying not to get too distraught about it but also like, he's pretty sure it's a reasonable thing to be upset about!
helborn: (why would you do that?)

[personal profile] helborn 2025-02-05 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
"... I'm already dead. I'm already - I've already used up my chance." He tenses up and squeezes his eyes shut like he's afraid that the other's going to yell at him or hurt him. "What else am I supposed to do? I can't - I can't fight her."

Great. Great, he's starting to cry a little. "You're the only person who would mourn me, anyway."

[personal profile] airplaneskyward 2025-02-05 05:09 am (UTC)(link)
Casper cringes into himself, like he's afraid of Shang Beida, and it makes him feel sick. "We could try to move your soul back into you from Bob, or to go to some other world where she doesn't have any power, if you think my shitty book is fine you could come there I could get Binghe to kidnap you, you don't have to just--wait to die." He's trying so hard to keep his voice quiet and even so Casper doesn't think he's angry at him but it's wobbling dangerously and his breathing is ragged and uneven.

"And you're the only person who would mourn me, so I might as well just give up and jump into the Abyss if I get sent home I guess!" he can't help snapping, then covers his face with his hands. "I'm sorry. I-- please, baobei, do you really want to just--" He swallows hard, trying not to entirely burst into tears. He got one good thing in his miserable fucking life so of course it was never going to last. "I've seen you talking to other people on the boat," he mutters. "You have friends besides me."
helborn: (even while distressed i have pretty hair)

"I can't let the Titans take over my world. Even if there's only a little that I can do, I have to... I have to. ... I'm sorry. I think... I think my only option is to keep pushing towards godhood because... I won't have a physical body that can die anymore. Not... not in the same way."

He turns and presses a hand to the other's cheek. "I'm sorry." He can't stop apologizing, won't until Shang Beida feels better. "I don't want this, of course I don't. I don't want to give up. For your sake, for the sake of everyone in my world... even for my own sake, though I don't think that's as important as - as the others." Gods, just... the reality of his father here has brought up so much unpleasant shit.

"I just... it's hard. I have to go back. If I don't, Fate will find some way to do it for me and I won't like how it does that. I know you care about me more than my world but I... I love you, of course I do, you know that. But what I want isn't as important as saving the world. It's just... it's selfish. It's too selfish. The math just doesn't work."

"Okay, but you can like. You don't have to be like. hopeless about it? Do you not want me to come find you and help? I'm not going to make you not be a hero helping people but. That doesn't mean I don't want to be with my boyfriend and helping keep him safe? Because I love you? And also, you trying to save your world does not have to involve people being absolute fucking dicks to you and abusing you? He does not the fuck have to treat you like that! He just sucks, that does not help anyone!" Shang Beida wraps his arms around Casper and buries his face in his neck. "You deserve better, baobei."
helborn: (want to sleep more...)

[personal profile] helborn 2025-02-11 05:08 pm (UTC)(link)
"... I'm sorry." He curls into himself a little more. "Of course I want you to be with me. I just... I know I shouldn't be hopeless but it's hard to find hope and it's driving me crazy. This is the part of the legends that no one tells you about..."

He feels sick. He's making Shang Beida upset, and he trembles a little. "... But I failed. I failed and I died and I have so much to make up for. I hurt kids, Shang Beida. I hurt people who didn't know what was going on because I was too weak. How... how am I ever supposed to make up for that? Of course I deserve punishment for that..."
airplaneskyward: (thinky)

[personal profile] airplaneskyward 2025-02-11 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
"He's not punishing you for that, he's just hurting you because he's an asshole! Also, you went to goat piss hell and your soul is in Bob, you have done plenty of suffering about it! Your dad hurting you doesn't make anything better for the kids Caspian hurt, it just hurts you, and that doesn't make you any better at helping the next person who needs either and-- baobei you can't hate yourself into saving the world?" He hugs Casper closer and kisses his hair. "I love you and even if you did bad things I don't think that means you're a bad person who deserves only bad things forever, or else I am too, because I have--I have hurt a lot of people, baobei. A lot of people have died because of me."
helborn: (is that what i think it is?)

[personal profile] helborn 2025-02-11 06:08 pm (UTC)(link)
"He's..." His voice is a little hollow and lifeless, his body tensing slightly. "I'm just... he's always been like that." He closes his eyes. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I can't hurt him. I can't hate him. I can't... maybe that makes me awful. Maybe that makes me an enabler or whatever. But he's just... I'm trying. I can't."
airplaneskyward: (sigh)

[personal profile] airplaneskyward 2025-02-11 06:17 pm (UTC)(link)
“You’re the victim, you can’t be the enabler of your own abuse, I’m pretty sure that’s not how it works. It doesn’t make you awful. It just… I’m sorry, I can’t not hate him for being so cruel to someone I love so much. It was more abstract when he wasn’t here and then he hurt you in front of me, because of me, and I have never hated anyone so much in my entire life. Either of my lives. And I know it upsets you and I’m sorry for that but you deserve so much better than the way he treats you. You’re not some kind of… malfunctioning tool, you’re a person. You’re my person. I’m not mad at you for not hating him, I’m just… sad that you don’t think you deserve better.” He rubs Casper’s back a little, helplessly, not sure what else to do. Their disagreements about Casper’s dad were always so abstract, before.
helborn: (you better not)

[personal profile] helborn 2025-02-12 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
"... I know. And maybe I do. But he's what I have - he's the one who was always there. I've met my mother twice, and... I know some people who grew up without knowing either of their parents. Shouldn't I be glad he at least didn't abandon me?"

Though was it because of his use or because of actual caring? He knows the answer, but he doesn't want to say it. "I... at least turned out more useful than my - no, that sounds awful when I say it out loud." The brother he never got to know was twisted, awful. There was no saving him. "... I want to say I turned out almost normal, even if I've never been actually normal." He just... curls into a ball under the other's touch.

"I don't know what to do. I can't - knowing him he can just teleport to wherever I am or something, I don't know what he can do. Or he'll wait until you're not around, or..." Or he'll try to hurt Shang Beida, and he's not sure what he'd do in that case.
airplaneskyward: (sigh)

[personal profile] airplaneskyward 2025-02-12 05:32 pm (UTC)(link)
"If he abandoned you, you'd have been in like, foster care or something, and you might have been raised by someone who like, actually wanted a child? I don't think you need to be grateful for the absolute scraps of nothing and using you for free labor and not murdering you that he did. That is like. Bare the fuck minimum and below it."

Shang Beida kisses the other's hair. "And that says more about you than it does about him, baobei. You turned out a good person despite him, not because of him. And... we're not the only ones on the boat. Not the only powerful ones, either. I managed to hurt him enough to get him to back off. If we get some of the others to help, maybe we can actually kill him. Maybe Wet Justice can just remove all the water in his body, that would be efficient."
helborn: (the dark is scary)

[personal profile] helborn 2025-02-12 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
"I don't really want to kill him. ... I want him to know that what he's doing is wrong. ... But I don't think he's going to admit it."

It's hard. It's difficult to know what to do. "Besides he'd probably go to my mother and then they'd just be terrible together."
airplaneskyward: (like ugh)

[personal profile] airplaneskyward 2025-02-12 05:39 pm (UTC)(link)
"I really want to kill him," Shang Beida grumbles. "He hurt you. And he doesn't at all think that he's doing anything wrong. Also, your mother is not on the boat, so he can't go to her right now."
helborn: (why would you do that?)

[personal profile] helborn 2025-02-12 05:47 pm (UTC)(link)
"I don't want people to have to deal with him either." He just flops over onto his side, leaning into his boyfriend. "And... I was stupid. I'm not surprised he hurt me, just surprised it was physical."
airplaneskyward: (bed)

[personal profile] airplaneskyward 2025-02-13 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
“I don’t want you to have to deal with him, ever again! He’s awful and he’s so fucking mean to you! The fact that you’re not surprised he hurt you does not make it okay! It makes it like even less okay! He does not deserve oxygen and he especially does not deserve to be near you ever ever ever a-fucking-gain!” He huffs a sigh and kisses Casper’s hair. “You deserve so much fucking better, baobei. No one deserves to be treated that way. You wouldn’t think it was right or okay if it was anyone else, I know you wouldn’t.”
helborn: (the dark is scary)

cw: slight suicidal ideation

[personal profile] helborn 2025-02-13 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
"You're not... wrong." He knows he has self-confidence issues. He knows he feels unworthy of anything positive. "But I can take a lot so why shouldn't I deal with a lot?"

His gaze turns distant and he just stares at his fingers gripping the sheet. "It's not like... it's not like I... I..." No, he can't keep the front up. Not around his boyfriend. "... I hate feeling weak. And he makes me feel weak, every single time. Emotionally, mentally, physically... I swore that I'd never be too weak to defend people who needed it again, but... but look at me. I'm... I'm weak around him."

He starts to cry a little bit, tears falling down his cheeks onto the fabric beneath them. "I... if I can't be strong enough to help people then there's no point in me being around."
airplaneskyward: (fighting?)

[personal profile] airplaneskyward 2025-02-13 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
“I’m durable, I can take a lot, it’s not a big deal for my king to kick me through walls and his courtiers to try and assassinate me. Same logic. But you don’t like it when I say it. I don’t like it when you say it.” He hates how much Casper hates himself. He’s so fucking kind it hurts, and he thinks he’s worth nothing at all.

“Baobei, it’s… he knows where all your weaknesses are because he installed most of them. It doesn’t make you weak. It just makes him an abusive piece of shit.” He pulls Casper close as he starts crying, rubbing his back, but he can’t help stiffening when Casper says there’s no point in him. “You don’t need to have a purpose, you’re just a person. And don’t say anything about fate or your mother, you’re still a person. Or do the system and my king mean that I have no reason to exist beyond following his orders and carrying out the plot of the book?” He makes a frustrated noise and squeezes Casper tight. “I don’t think this is coming out right. I’m sorry. I love you. I want you to exist. And I want you to not hurt. And to be happy. And safe.”
helborn: (want to sleep more...)

[personal profile] helborn 2025-02-13 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
"I don't..." He goes limp in his boyfriend's arms. He's not sure what to do. "... I don't know what I want anymore. I want to help people. ... I just don't... know how anymore. When I'm not playing my part - I know, you said not to say anything about it - I... I don't know what to do."

He takes small breaths, Bob croaking at him quietly from the other side of the room. "I know. I know he's awful. Maybe it's not love. ... Maybe it's just dependence. I don't know how to break that kind of thing. ... I want you to be happy and safe too. I'm just scared that I can't do anything to help."

“You’ve already helped me so much, Casper.” Shang Beida kisses his forehead. “Like, the Ship is fairly horrible, but you make me happier than I’ve probably ever been? No one has ever loved me before. I’m not like, important, I’m not saving the world or anything but… you’ve made a difference to me. I feel like a real person again, I’m Shang Beida, I’m not just play-acting Shang Qinghua and cringing and scraping to everyone. You matter so much to me. And you did like fully come in like an avenging angel and save me from the plant wolves. I know plenty of other people on the Ship like you too. You can just… help people in normal people ways? You don’t have to destroy yourself to be something out of legends. I know you’re a demigod and legends are how it works, I know, but we’re not there and we don’t know how to get there and destroying yourself doesn’t help anyone anyway.”

"... I've lived my whole life for other people. For the living and for the dead. Trying to not do things like that is... hard. It feels like if I don't do things for other people I'm being selfish and I don't know how to do that. Being selfish is... weird. For me, at least."

He's not useful if he's not helping other people and if he's not useful...
airplaneskyward: (sigh)

[personal profile] airplaneskyward 2025-02-13 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
"And all I've done for decades is be selfish. But I'm trying to... not be a shitty piece of scum. But you... you have to do things for yourself too. You're supposed to take care of yourself first, right? Like... put on your own oxygen mask first or whatever. You can't help anyone else if you can't function. And... I know you care more about the world but I care more about you because I'm a selfish asshole and I just want you to be alive and happy. I know you're dead, alive as in still walking around."
helborn: (why would you do that?)

cw: death talk

[personal profile] helborn 2025-02-13 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
"... I think..." Casper starts slowly, nestling into his boyfriend's arms. "I think I'm just scared of being... alone. I don't want people to hate me, so... so I help them at the expense of myself. And I know I'm not alone here, and I know that Bob's always with me but... you know what I mean."

Trembling fingers catch in the fabric of Shang Beida's robes. "When I was dying... Bob was there but I still felt utterly... alone. I... I think I'm scared of that happening again. I was alone and couldn't breathe from the pain and I... I'm just so desperate to not be alone. But if I go back to my world... the other members of my Band don't care about me. My parents both think I'm a stupid, foolish, useless tool."

He takes a deep breath. "But I can't just abandon a world that has good people in it just because the people I've met have been bad..."
airplaneskyward: (thinky)

[personal profile] airplaneskyward 2025-02-13 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
"I don't want you to be alone," Shang Beida says softly, and kisses Casper's hair. "And there have to be better people somewhere in your world, instead of just... letting terrible people use you." He hugs his boyfriend closer. "I don't want to leave you. If or when we get sent back or find a way back, I will do everything I can to go with you or find a way to you. I won't stop you helping people, but... I care about you. I want to be there for you."
