Intro Log

Who: Everyone!
What: Your first magical day
Where: Progress City Tranport Center
When: Right now
Warnings: None planned!



[Today you found a ticket to a theme park. It seems relatively normal, except that it reads: Lifetime Parkhopper Pass to Progress City. ”The Most Magical Pocket Dimension in the Multiverse!” This is not a theme park you have ever heard of, if you live in a world where theme parks are of the norm.

For some reason you’re drawn to the ticket. There’s something… magical in this piece of paper, and you can practically hear it calling out to you, and you feel compelled to pick it up. It’s strange, but it’s a piece of paper, what’s the worst that could happen?

However, the moment you pick it up, you feel yourself being pulled. There is nothing pulling you but there is an overwhelming sensation that something is pulling you by the chest into the ground. You don’t have time to process what’s going on before you suddenly fall over, the strange feeling going away the moment you hit the ground.

It takes a few moments for you to regain your bearings, but as you look up you are suddenly hit with the fact that, wherever you were before, you certainly aren’t there anymore. It appears to be a transport station of some sort, and a very sleek and new one at that. Monorails pass by the station every couple of minutes, with small, slower moving vehicles consistently move in and out of the center.

The innermost wall, right behind where you stand, is lined with portals. It appears that you came in through this portal, but if you try to go back the way you came in, you’ll find that you are unable to enter it, no matter how hard you try.

While the realization that you are now trapped in this strange place, you will soon find that you also have a strange band strapped to your dominant wrist. No matter how hard you try to take it off, it seems like it’s stuck on there.

At least you’re not alone, along with a bunch of other people who arrived around the same time you did, there are humanoid people who seemed to be intrigued by your arrival. They’re all generally nice, but get confused if you ask them why you’re here and why you can’t leave. They will, however, happily tell you the name of the place you’re in if you ask:

Progress City.]

Same universe solidarity, right? I mean, I'd probably even ally with somebody like Chad in a place like this.

[AUDREY YOUR BOYFRIEND IS THE WOOORST]

[personal profile] makeitpink 2018-04-04 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
Something like that. At least we know what each other is capable of.

[ UGH not boyfriend anymore, just easily manipulated man-child ]

He wouldn't be any help at all. He'd actually make things worse.
faciliheir: (all eyes on me)

[personal profile] faciliheir 2018-04-04 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
If he does end up showing up, I owe him a punch in the arm. His dumb dad nearly got me killed a little while back. [forgets she wanted to delay them knowing that bc fuckin charmings]
makeitpink: (017)

[personal profile] makeitpink 2018-04-04 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
I hope he doesn't show up, the one perk is that at least my phone isn't constantly going off with texts or voicemails from him.

[ But there's a small pause as she processes that second part. ] Wait... nearly got you killed? You're telling me his dad was in that other place you were?
faciliheir: (three shakes)

[personal profile] faciliheir 2018-04-04 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
... Ah, yeah, kinda? But, younger. I never really got if it was timeline stuff or universes... But, Hades was there, my dad, Gaston, couple others... Not too many of your kind [y'know, heroes] but a few.

Either way, he was totally willing to let me chop up a body he knew wasn't really dead 'cause that whole family is full of total jerks!
makeitpink: (010)

[personal profile] makeitpink 2018-04-04 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
[ She's wrinkling her nose... is it disgust at Charming or at chopping up a live body? We'll never know. ]

Gross. Ugh, oh my god- so another rule of thumb here is to just not trust the Charmings in general. Chad would totally sell us out if it meant he'd be okay. [ Bc he's a coward and not whipped enough to think of her before him. ] Or better yet, just hope for zero Charmings at all.
faciliheir: (stealing features)

[personal profile] faciliheir 2018-04-04 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
Man, I missed all the exciting stuff back home, didn't I? I wouldn't have guessed you'd be back on the royal market, Princess.

Chad is clingy and that's only a good thin when you need something done. [ Otherwise? Annoying af. ]

So, instead, Flora, Fauna and Merryweather took me on a much needed spa vacay. Honestly, I've just kind of cut myself off from the school for the moment. It's easier that way, for everyone involved.

[ No one's filled her in about Chad's antics in her absence. Not that she really cares. ]
faciliheir: (just a little something we have here)

[personal profile] faciliheir 2018-04-04 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
Well, you're in luck, 'cause-- and I can tell you this personally-- opening up your dating pool to other universes really ups your chances.
makeitpink: (022)

[personal profile] makeitpink 2018-04-04 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
Oh? [ She raises an eyebrow at that ] Does that mean you're dating someone?
faciliheir: (by the book)

[personal profile] faciliheir 2018-04-04 05:26 am (UTC)(link)
Kinda engaged. [said just UBER CASUALLY] But, that was kinda a spur of the moment after mortal peril-type situation? So it'll probably be a long engagement.
makeitpink: (022)

[personal profile] makeitpink 2018-04-09 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
What? No way. Like- okay I guess that kind of situation makes things a more do-or-die kind of thing but... Wow. I was not expecting to hear that.
faciliheir: (each a diamond to be mined)

[personal profile] faciliheir 2018-04-09 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not lucky very often, but I sure hit the jackpot. [casually entirely avoids mentioning it's ariel bc audrey's face when she learns will be much more hilarious this way.] You'll probably run into her eventually-- if one good thing from the last place is gonna make the transition to here, it'll be everyone knowing everyone else.
