System Glitch: In The City: Ship Ahoy! [location: Osten]

[theextras]

The day of July fourth was spent dealing with annoying, static-ridden transmissions from the tablets. Hisses, bleeps, pops, and occasionally what might have been an indistinguishable voice saying something unintelligible. The interruptions ceased in the evening, and the city went back to being quiet and empty.

The fifth brought more of the same, but shortly after noon something curious happened: if one consulted the map, they'd note a dot out in the ocean. Zooming in on the dot showed that it was not one but many dots, each with a familiar name attached, and observation would show that the dots were headed toward a never-before-used ferry terminal on the Osten waterfront.

Go meet your people, Taxon, and send them to get showers post haste!


ooc: The ferry terminal is a proper building so our vampires aren't in danger of going foom.

And that's that! Thanks everyone, this plot's been ridiculous fun, now back to your regularly scheduled hijinks.

She didn't want to let go but there was Paul and she had to take deep breaths and try and stay calm like she'd counseled herself for those days when everyone had first disappeared.

Pressing in close against Glitch, not caring about scruff or anything else. He was back and alive and that was all that mattered.

"He's still teaching me to cook so that line might be better sooner than later," she said, trying to tease.

"I can cook a bit," Glitch says with a dismissive little wave. Least of his worries right now, he just needed to be with her and from some angles that's wildly absurd but...

He holds on tight and guide her toward the exit. "Once I've got things together I'll make a big ol' pot of muglug. Meanwhile I think-- oh, there's a hatch in the study, let's just get to my place and we'll figure it out."

Her hand slid around him, hand splaying along his back. He was back. Glitch was there and home and whole and that was enough. No, it was more than enough. It was everything.

"Whatever you need and want," she said, looking up at him, a smile curving her lips and tears in her eyes. "So long as you're here."
