EVENT: The Great BREW Malfunction Pt II [OPEN]

[soul_mods]

Characters: Everyone and anyone
Location: Anywhere in Death City!
Rating: PG-13
Time: July 16 to July 18th
Description: And then it gets worse.



By now, no one is popping in and out of existence, but that's hardly any consolation when odd things keep happening.

At first it's not that bad. An innocuous item or two shows up. Something harmless wanders around that you're sure has never been in Death City before.

By the second day, bigger and more dangerous things start showing up and by the third...

Well.

As long as you don't mind the giant pieces of debris or creatures blocking the road or the sky, it's not that bad, right?

((OOC: List of canon items and creatures arriving can be found here. Remember, the list only tells you where they initially show up. They'll probably move on soon enough to a new location.

Remember to put Character | Location | OPEN/CLOSED in your subject!))

Amaterasu | Around Death City | July 16th-18th

[motherofthesun]

July 16th

[Amaterasu was at work when the first occurrence happened. A small white rat with red markings skittered around the training grounds, looking at the people practicing, but making its way over to the sparring swords. It couldn't possibly carry one, but it surprisingly has no trouble getting it onto its back. It's way too big, but it doesn't seem bothered. Really, looked like he was going to head off somewhere with it.]

[Amaterasu blinked when Rosalia delivered a small fox to her. Vice President? That's what the humans called it? Interesting! Her tail wagged as she led the way; she'd take care of him until his humans came to get him.]

July 17th

[Amaterasu now had Tachigami accompanying her, but today had another surprise of its own. The Red Light District would hear drunken bleating. Literal drunken bleating as a large sheep - much larger than the average - stumbled down the street. White with red markings, the bars didn't know what to do when it came in and requested the strongest alcohol they had. Still, no money, no booze.]

[It wouldn't be long before Amaterasu and Tachigami would hear said sounds and get the situation rectified.]

July 18th

[Despite all the happenings around, it was a nice day at the park. It was practically a picnic and a matter of catching up between the three. Tachigami was giving a report while Kasugami drank up her sake. Nothing like her own brew, but it was still alright. They might be there for a while so why not approach and talk to them?]

July 16th

[vintage_magic]

[Lily was somewhat later than usual getting to the park this morning. Not having seen Amaterasu yet, she blinked in surprise at the sight of a rat scurrying around with a sword. White fur, familiar red markings...]

What in the Sam Hill?

[She bent down to take a closer look. It was definitely a rat, reminding her of her recent trip to Germany with Lezard and the children that the Pied Piper had turned into rats.]

Amaterasu? Did you get turned into a rat somehow?

[motherofthesun]

[Actual wolf in question sneezed some distance away, earning several turned heads. Not often did the wolf sneeze after all. The rat wrinkled its nose and stared up at Lily. Nose twitching still, and whiskers pulling back, it shook its head.]

You've mistaken me for my Mother, Miss.

[vintage_magic]

[But those turned heads didn't include Lily's. She was too busy tilting her head and staring at the talking rat. If it were a wolf cub, that would have sounded reasonable but...]

Your mother? But you're a rat!

[motherofthesun]

[The rat just stared at Lily like she had grown a second head. Perhaps due to the obvious being pointed out, or maybe because she seems to know Amaterasu, but questions how paternity works.]

And she's a Goddess. What's your point?

[It's okay kids in the hospital! Ammy's feeling better... though, her ears feel like they're burning.]

[vintage_magic]

[And Lily's still staring back because this doesn't seem very logical.]

But she's a wolf and you're a rat... Why aren't you the same type of animal? And how come you can talk when she can't?

[motherofthesun]

[The rat turns its head slightly]

Talking complicates things... like now. Were we born the way humans were, maybe I would be a wolf.

July 17th

[pirateninja]

[Thoroughly aggravated, agitated, and infuriated by how Guybrush’s hand kept showing up to knock her over and cause her to turn into that glass, Morgan felt the need for a real glass of grog. As she moved through the red light district, she became aware of a bleating sound unlike any she’d heard before.]

A sheep? It sounds drunk, too.

[She was just steps from the Bitch’s Brew when the animal stumbled out of the bar, causing her to raise an eyebrow. She'd seen some drunk monkeys before back in the Caribbean but a sheep? And the markings reminded her of that dog…]

[motherofthesun]

[The sheep in question shook its head out once back in the streets, huffing. Death Dollars... What an absurd name... but it did make the animal wonder where all its Yen went. Could've sworn there had been a few coins lost in... in its wool. Wait, should humans charge at all?]

... M-Maybe Mother has some stuff with her.

[Letting out a misty pink exhale, the sheep shook out its wool and began clopping down the street, bumbling one way before straightening up with another 'baah'.]

[pirateninja]

[Morgan didn’t know or care why the sheep should be mumbling about its mother but she was irritated when the barnyard creature nearly bumbled into her, breathing out a cloud of pink mist in her face.]

Hey, watch it!

[The pirate hunter was used to strong liquor but even she couldn’t help coughing. How much had this pile of wool had to drink in there?]

[motherofthesun]

Whoops, I'm sorry.

[The sheep chuckled, shaking out her head and wool. It sprung up a little more and she seemed to become focused. Staring long and hard at Morgan, it was a wonder what was going on in her mind right now until she finally spoke.] ... Who are you?

[pirateninja]

I'm Morgan LeFlay, Mighty Pirate Hunter ^[TM]!

[But it's not that impressive an introduction since she coughs again from the mist.]

[And it's made even less impressive when a green-tinged severed hand sneaks up on her, leaps into the air, and slaps her on the back, knocking her over. It jars her into transforming into a glass with a picture of a volcano on the side. It rolls along the sidewalk, spilling out a glowing red liquid that kinda looks like lava.]

Uuugff! When I get my hands on that hand...

[motherofthesun]

Oh ho~ A pirate...

[The sheep seems impressed. Well, as impressed as a drunk sheep can be. The animal doesn't even move at the hand knocking over Morgan; instead, just watching it go on its own merry way after knocking over the woman. Its head snaps at the cup and it walks over, sniffing at the red liquid.]

July 16th

[this_is_keron]

[At some point, Giroro noticed that there was something that looked like a rat in the park.

He blinked, and stopped cleaning the knife in his hands for a moment and just...stared.

Nevermind that he always got on people's cases for doing the same to him: this was bizare given that, according to the calendar in his head they weren't due for new arrivals for at least a few more days.]

What are you?

[motherofthesun]

[Not that the rat seemed bothered, picking out the sword and turning back around. While a rat, it does come to around Giroro's chest. Nose twitching, whiskers moving ever so slightly, it seems to be thinking]

What specifically are you asking about?

[this_is_keron]

You don't look like any Pekoponian creature I've seen before so I was wondering what you were.

Unless you're a new arrival? [Won't be the first time BREW has messed people up.]

[motherofthesun]

What is a Pekoponian? And you haven't seen a rat before?

[It turns better to face Giroro.] A new arrival I guess.

[this_is_keron]

Pekoponian are people or creatures that come from Pekopon. And I've seen plenty of rats, but none of them look like you.

And most of them can't talk.

[Huh.]

That's odd. This isn't usually when we get new arrivals.

[motherofthesun]

That doesn't tell me much if I don't know what Pekopon is.

[The rat's whiskers flick]

I'm not a normal rat. What do you mean 'new arrivals'?

July 16

[draculabackwards]

*Why does this rat have similar markings to Amaterasu? Either the wolf got turned into a rat or someone just likes painting rats in bright colors. It's not quite sinking in yet.*

[motherofthesun]

[Rat in question is minding its own business, satisfied with what its choice of temporary sword. Placing it on its back, the rat began to slink away.]

[draculabackwards]

Amaterasu? Is that you?

[motherofthesun]

[The rat turns in, shaking his head]

No.

[draculabackwards]

Oh. Well. *...hang on.* Do you happen to know Amaterasu?

[motherofthesun]

[Now Alucard has more of the rat's attention]

Yes. She's my mother.
