DAYS OF SUMMER↴![]() You made it! And things are back to normal... more or less. Upon waking, you will be greeted with a clear blue sky and gentle breeze – the carnival has found itself situated between a pair of mountain peaks, with great fields of flowers extending in the distance. In the other direction, you’ll see mountain-top cities and tall waterfalls accenting vast swaths of forest. Some of you will already know this place. It’s the Summerlands. You game here once to rest in safety nearly a year ago, and now you’ve come to rest once again. ► WAKING UP: Shortly after the carnival arrives, the Ringmaster will send out a somewhat cryptic radio message - but her immediate location won't be clear. Whatever items you had on your person at the time the Severing was broken will still be on your person, including whatever clothing. All of the animals and pets of the carnival will have returned to the grounds as well, though they are currently free from their designated living spaces. Things in the carnival will appeared to have naturally aged a month, as if the carnival was been sitting here empty and waiting while everyone was in Portland. The lawn needs mowing. ► SUMMER CITY: After the Summer Fae become aware of everyone's presence, they will welcome you into their city. There are stairs that lead up the sides of the mountains, but thankfully there are also magical means of getting up there as well. The Summer Fae will be willing to help workers with the injured as needed, offering herbal remedies and healing magic to those that want it. You'll also be invited to join them for dinner, but they will not be particularly offended if they are turned down, for now. ► SUMMER PEOPLE: The fae here will mostly enjoy the company of any carnival members that offer it - it doesn't seem that much happens here besides day after day of peaceful meditation and relaxation. It is not uncommon to see Summer Fae spent days doing exactly the same thing, whether that be enjoying the weather, listening to music, or dancing - the day and night periods may be similar to earth, but when you don't need rest it can all blur together just the same. Some of the fae work on feats of agriculture or craftsmanship, and while there is no particularly need to work in this place, they take pride in the fact that they do. ► NEW ARRIVALS: Though the Ringmaster will not be offering much guidance for the first week or so, eventually the carnival will begin running for a few small performance sessions, off and on, as a thank you to their fae hosts. The carnival will also be open to receiving new arrivals during that period, and so there will likely be some newbies to train and get orientated as well. |

But... we were really there for some of it. At least from when we started remembering. I forgot my best friend too, and made new ones. But even if it was while we couldn't remember ourselves, I still think that friendship was real.
[He can't imagine them going through the things they did and then just... not caring as much. About Strange, or Rita, or Tamaki. His identity was a little weird, but the most recent memories were absolutely his.]
no subject
[ Lambert's tone is sharp and bitter, cynical in a way his Portland self could never quite touch. He's tired, he's stuck in a tree waiting to be rescued instead of rescuing his own goddamn self, and now he has to listen to this on top of it all. ]
Just drop it, all right?
no subject
[He fiddles absently with the volume of the radio, but it's still silent. Yuya goes silent, too.]
no subject
After a few minutes, though, he'll break the silence, and though his voice is still taut with anger at least it's also more even. ]
Who healed me, back then? [ He knows what injuries generally feel like, and something that severe shouldn't have let him return to consciousness so quickly, much less summon the energy to punch someone hard enough to knock them out. ]
no subject
It was Steven. [Steven... he hopes he's doing all right. Poor kid probably went through as much trouble, being the Summer Court's catalyst (Yuya definitely still thinks he's younger).]
no subject
Mentioning Steven makes him look puzzled for a moment, but then he shrugs, just ... accepting that fact. He doesn't want to know if Steven actually spit on him or not to revive him; the outcome was the same anyway, so why dwell on the details? Though there is one he wants to ask about: ]
The weapon that ran you and Peridot through -- what was that? Did it come with us? [ Because seriously, what the hell was that. Lambert still isn't entirely hip to how the ritual got screwed up there. ]
no subject
He furrows his brow as he makes a genuine attempt to remember, but it's useless.] But I don't know what happened to it, you'd have to ask Yugo. I think I passed out as soon as we got back.
no subject
Wow, they sure didn't care about subtlety with a name like that, did they?

How about 'I Survived Getting Fisted By the Hand of God'? Nice ring to it.
no subject
[None of these things are remotely in the same field. How terrible of an adult are you going to be, Lambert.]
no subject
Just a joke. [ He says, breezily. Good thing the Carnival doesn't have internet, huh? He lifts a hand off his stomach, waving it around vaguely. ]
There wasn't a whole lot of blood for being stabbed. What was supposed to happen?
no subject
There wasn't supposed to be any blood during that part. [If there was Yugo did something very wrong and they'd all be stuck in Portland.] It went through our souls, not our bodies.
no subject
When the Ringmaster comes back, you ought to have her take a look at that. Your soul, I mean. [ Hopefully since she's herself and not a creepy beast she won't be liplocking with Yuya to figure that out, but you never do know. ]

Which reminds him--] So it's normal for her to turn into a dragon, too?
[Because that was fucking awesome.]
no subject
no subject
Dragons, though. Dragons are awesome.]
no subject
[ Being one to totally advocate murder, Lambert thinks it's pretty useful to have someone with that kind of power in their corner. It's given him his own ideas for something he'd like to learn, but he's going to keep that idea to himself for now, in case it's not something that works out. ]
Guess they called her the Beast for a reason.
