[General Log] Tuning Towers, Sept. 22 onward.

Who: Any and all!
Where: The site of Tuning Towers (and/or en route accordingly), at the heart of the business district in Locke City's downtown.
When: September 22nd and onward.
What: Following that mysterious buzzing sound to its strongest point! Perhaps you made plans with numbered associates for a trip downtown, or perhaps you went a-wandering alone to follow the noise yourself - surely you'll hardly be the only one.



[Tuning Towers, the third-largest building in the United States and Locke City's most prominent feature, from a tourist perspective in one sense and quite literally by another - look up and marvel, if you will, should you not be a bit too distracted by the circumstances.

Even if you needed to focus to tune into the buzzing in your brain at the start of whatever trip you took, you'll find that by the time you come close enough to the tower to feel a rising sensation of tremors beneath your feet - unnoticed, as far as one can tell, by the crowds, which almost never lack presence around the building - you'll be able to hear it very easily without even trying. It isn't terribly intrusive in the first couple of days after the return of the lights in the sky. As September moves on and into October, however, the intensity will grow all the more overbearing.

It is, indeed, even worse if you enter the building - only the ground floor is accessible to the unauthorized by the tower's maintenance and management or personnel of the companies making use of it. Apart from that, among the indoor crowds, you'll find nothing unusual on the ground floor - and if you'll find that the buzzing loses its strength the higher you go if you take a trip up to one of the observation floors.]

"I'm not." Sigh. She looked up. "But that's been there forever, hasn't it?"
not_good_not_wicked: (Totally ordinary)

[personal profile] not_good_not_wicked 2013-09-26 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
"Maybe something is different now."

She shouldered her backpack back up. "Let's go take a look."
stavros: Kokoro smiling, embarrassed but confident. ([c] might be a competition)

[personal profile] stavros 2013-09-27 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
"All right." Tessa took her own bag and started walking. "Have you been here before?"
not_good_not_wicked: I mean really (Headphones)

[personal profile] not_good_not_wicked 2013-09-27 07:44 am (UTC)(link)
"Not once. I think it's owned by ThunderCorp but I might be making that up?"
stavros: Kokoro with her ancestor. ([a] truer to form)

[personal profile] stavros 2013-09-27 12:20 pm (UTC)(link)
She nodded along. "That would make sense. I'm unsure as well; I've only been here once or twice. I've lived here about a year now. Inside?" Tessa started walking through the door.
not_good_not_wicked: (Hell yes)

[personal profile] not_good_not_wicked 2013-09-27 07:13 pm (UTC)(link)
"They can't keep us out." She said, following Tessa through the door.

Tessa took a few steps and stumbled. Her eyes widened as she clutched her sides. Quickly, she looked around and caught her breath, pulling herself up and trying not to grimace.

"What was that?"
not_good_not_wicked: (...huh.)

[personal profile] not_good_not_wicked 2013-09-28 07:55 am (UTC)(link)
Marisa stopped in concern, then pulled Tessa out of the way before the person coming through the doors behind them walked into her. "Hey, you alright?"
stavros: Kokoro eating takoyaki. ([c] everyone needs to eat)

[personal profile] stavros 2013-09-28 08:39 am (UTC)(link)
She held her head and nodded solemnly. "I just... remembered something."
not_good_not_wicked: (Well maybe a little bit.)

[personal profile] not_good_not_wicked 2013-09-28 04:08 pm (UTC)(link)
"Probably shouldn't talk about that in the middle of a traffic flow."

She guided Tessa over to a little cluster of couches next to some tasteful potted plants in the corner. It was miraculously abandoned and out of the way. "So what's the deets?"
stavros: Kokoro with her whip. ([a] introducing)

[personal profile] stavros 2013-09-28 07:48 pm (UTC)(link)
She held her head and lowered her voice with a groan. "First it was vampires and now it's aliens. I'm a little afraid of what else I'm going to remember."
not_good_not_wicked: (Fuck you pal)

[personal profile] not_good_not_wicked 2013-09-29 08:45 am (UTC)(link)
"Maybe the aliens were vampires?"

Her oh so helpful expression then gave way to that familiar deer in the headlights face that Tessa herself JUST made. "Woah."
stavros: Kokoro with her ancestor. ([a] truer to form)

[personal profile] stavros 2013-09-29 03:13 pm (UTC)(link)
"No, they were--" She stopped and tilted her head. "What?"
not_good_not_wicked: (Hmm)

[personal profile] not_good_not_wicked 2013-09-29 04:41 pm (UTC)(link)
She slumped a bit in the big leather chair she has claimed thoughtfully.

"Just remembered something too. Chasing after a giant flying ship."
stavros: Kokoro about to use her whip. ([a] ready to go)

[personal profile] stavros 2013-09-29 04:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Tessa looked around and gave a small nod. "We should probably talk about this later."
not_good_not_wicked: (Everyone is happy!)

[personal profile] not_good_not_wicked 2013-09-30 07:07 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah."

Marisa shook her head, cleraing aside thoughts of magic flying ships. Then her expression brightened.

"Wanna see if they'll let us go upstairs?"
stavros: Kokoro smiling, embarrassed but confident. ([c] might be a competition)

[personal profile] stavros 2013-09-30 01:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Blink. "What, like to the observation deck?"
not_good_not_wicked: (...huh.)

[personal profile] not_good_not_wicked 2013-09-30 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)
"There's an observation deck? That shouldn't be too hard, then."
stavros: Kokoro cheering and fistpumping. ([c] go go go!)

[personal profile] stavros 2013-10-01 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
"Right! We can get there by the public elevator. I mean, it's a lot more restricted than the public elevator, but at least we'll get up somewhere."
not_good_not_wicked: (Hmm)

[personal profile] not_good_not_wicked 2013-10-01 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Several minutes later found the two of them standing on the deck, looking over the city.

"Well...the view is nice, at least. I can't tell if it's actually louder or not, though."
stavros: Kokoro blushing indignantly. ([c] failtastic trainee)

[personal profile] stavros 2013-10-02 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
Tessa groaned and clutched the railing. "It's still hurting my head... I can't believe no one else feels all this shaking."
not_good_not_wicked: (:<)

[personal profile] not_good_not_wicked 2013-10-02 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah this is really starting to get on my nerves."

She let go of the railing and took a step back, "Let's get out of here."
stavros: Kokoro facing the castle. ([a] destiny)

[personal profile] stavros 2013-10-03 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
Nod. "Somewhere else?"
not_good_not_wicked: (Okay maybe not ENTIRELY sober)

[personal profile] not_good_not_wicked 2013-10-03 07:33 am (UTC)(link)
"Where my ears aren't ringing."

Exit stage right.
