video // forward-dated to April 14th
[The video starts with Kiran looking down into the camera, his face taking up most of the frame. There's a film of sweat on his forehead from the heat - or maybe from exercise, since he seems slightly out of breath.]
Hey. My name is Kiran. Welcome to the new people. Enjoy your stay. Or don't. Lemme know if you need a roommate, I guess, but only if you're not a pain in the ass.
Anyway -
[The camera suddenly jerks with movement, spinning away from Kiran's face until it points out at his surroundings. He's standing at the edge of the city, with the desert sprawling out in front of him, seemingly unending.
And... there's a monster. It's standing on the sand, glaring and growling at Kiran, preparing to charge him. But when Kiran speaks again, he's stifling a laugh.]
I think the barrier's back. Check it out - it's freaking hilarious.
[Before he's finished his sentence, the monster screeches and charges straight at him. With a startled and nervous laugh, he stumbles backwards, but the camera is steady enough to catch the monster crashing head-first into the invisible barrier surrounding the city again. It's like watching a dog ram into a glass door... except the dog is, uh, very large. And it's trying to commit murder.
As soon as it crashes not-majestically into the barrier, Kiran erupts into unabashed giggling.]
It's been doing this for the past fifteen minutes! [the sound of him slapping his knee or maybe his face can be heard in the background among his laughs. The monster stumbles around, dazed.]
After dealing with these things for weeks, it's just... oh my God, guys. Somebody bring me some popcorn.

[And yeah, it's theoretically possible the barrier could fall, but it's been fifteen minutes and it hasn't yet. At this point, it feels about as theoretically possible as all the buildings behind him randomly collapsing.]

[ Honestly, he's kind of curious. The barrier they had to protect Whitestone took a lot of time and effort and magic on the part of a few very skilled magic users; no doubt this is the work of a god, he suspects, but at what price? ]
Has it ever gone down before? I don't think it was up when I got here.
no subject
Anyway... I'm hoping that Hope thought about that buddy thing. Most of these monsters aren't smart enough to coordinate like that, I think, but it's possible we could get two at once by chance.
