It's a TOURIST TRAP....OF DEATH.

Who: Carly, Jack, Lambert, some poor NPC sap....
When: 'October 10th, 2017'
Where: Portland area, in the new reality- Specifically Sanctuary, and some random abandoned office building.
What: TERRIBLE SNACKRIFICES FOR SOULS!!!
Warnings: Carly is literally murdering a man (it won't be given much detail however and the log itself is mostly chatter before and outside the scene.)


[Anath's forces were on the move. Scouts were now appearing, trying to convince her to their side of things, and while she was nervous, Aslla seemed to be growing even more antsy with the passing days. 'We need more power,' he finally hissed, practically breaking his voice as it shook. 'I need SOULS!'

She had balked, of course. It was hard enough to get one soul, but multiple? And the things it would take...

...So he dangled their agreement over her head. An agreement that, unbeknownst to her, wasn't even real, an agreement that only Aslla Piscu knew to be false...

...But even with her thoughts scrambling hour after hour, it still felt so important.

So.

One soul, she agreed. She would conduct the ritual, and with any luck claw their way to the strength they needed to weather out the tide. Did Aslla already have enough strength? Would he make it just getting a single soul's worth? she didn't know.

They had to try though, right?

[Jack swings open the passenger side door and stuffs Carly unceremoniously inside, before he gets in on the opposite end.

Unfortunately, Jack's driving abilities are that much worse in a car. He ends up hitting the curb a lot, or having his front tire go off the road. Red lights are run and he Calfornia rolls through every stop sign.

Somehow, they get to their destination safely despite the odds. It's the Sanctuary.]

[It's a quiet drive even with the mistakes. Carly jolts and jumps every now and then, but she says nothing, merely watching as the Sanctuary appears.

She swallows-and moves to get herself out, at least 'over' things enough to move for herself.

...I suppose this is it... ...isn't it?

[...The deal is done. She doubts Jack wants anything to do with her now, even if he IS a demon...]

Yes. I've done everything I said I would and more.

[Jack keeps his head turned away from her.]

But the sanctuary isn't my property, so I can't keep you from coming inside.

[He lets out a frustrated noise, clenching his fist and raising his voice.]

I'm inviting you to come inside! That guy saw your face!

[...Wha-] WH-WH-

Why would that matter, he was one of my contacts earlier this month!! Of course he knows who I a-

[Wait.] ...S...

...So you don't want to just stop seeing each other then..? [she realizes, eyes watering with the realization.]
kingofd: (bad lecture)

[personal profile] kingofd 2017-08-02 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
If he reports you to the police, all my effort will have gone to waste!

[Even if he's already completed his contract, he'll ultimately feel like he'd failed if it backfires on her because that guy got through.

Jack pauses, momentarily bewildered by the question. He quickly saves face by folding his arms and sticking his nose up.]


I still haven't gotten an answer from you. I can't have you leaving until I've satisfied my curiosity!
insidescoop: (Bwueh?)

[personal profile] insidescoop 2017-08-02 05:10 pm (UTC)(link)
A-Answer?!

..To what?! [She's pretty easy to just usher inside while all of this is being 'discussed', in any case.]
kingofd: (small yell)

[personal profile] kingofd 2017-08-05 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
The answer to how I know you, of course!

[That should be obvious, he thinks.]
kingofd: (sideyes)

prob end here?

[personal profile] kingofd 2017-08-09 06:47 pm (UTC)(link)
That's right.

[Jack responds, unwavered by her yelping as he turns to head into the Sanctuary.]

So you were a reporter back home, too? Come, tell me the rest inside.

yeah here works!

[personal profile] insidescoop 2017-08-09 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah...

I-I-!!

[She has little choice as she's dragged off-no doubt she'll squirrel away somehow later, but for now...] I'm only going to know so much, just make sure you realize that..!!

[...They'll manage.]
