Happy Days, Zombie Nights
Who: Hazmats!
Where: at sea and at Arco da Vella
When: June.
What: zombies. Also exploring Arco and seeing its own brand of weirdness, looking for treasure, etc.
Warnings: maybe some zombie violence
Style: whatever
Status: closed to Hazmats
The Nightfury leaves Li Yu Tiao after the festival and after a little aimless sailing, settles on a course southeast to Arco da Vella, mainly to follow rumors of treasure and to do visit somewhere they haven't been before. By the time they turn onto this week-long journey, it's already June, and the Dog's warnings about something coming catch up to them before they land.
At sea the night of the 15th when the first zombies attack, it becomes even more imperative to make it to land. Because of course, it would never happen on land, right? Wrong. Plus, when they get there, the strange colorless nature of Arco da Vella shows itself, not that it's as dangerous or deadly as zombies but it's just one thing after another around here.
[date your threads, have some fun!]

What the hell is this? We're at sea. Where'd they come from? What do they want? They're...they're really corpses.
[it's awful coming to that realization. So not ghosts. Probably won't respond like ghosts, either.]
no subject
Well, just so you know, those things were called zombies. Not really sure how you'd deal with them back in your home. But is every reference to them ever, they're evil and need to be burned or decapitated. Also that you aren't supposed to get bitten by them or you'll turn into one.
[Suddenly eyes the shirtless man for any bite marks.]
no subject
Zombies. Don't know either, we don't usually see corpses walk around again. Just ghosts. [beat] I know how to deal with ghosts, at least the ones who might be my own ancestors. [assholes need to stay dead and not bug him for money, is what it is]
Guess we'll have to try your method, then. It seems to work, anyway.
no subject
All of the mental pouting.]
We don't really have zombies back home. They exist in stories and movies. But that's just about it. As for ghosts, we have ghost types. But those aren't really the same. as what I've been seeing here.
[Except Spiritomb. Maybe. One day, Kitty. One day she'll tell you the real story fo where Spiritombs come from.]
I don't mind having my pokemon out and patrolling the boat. But I'm worried the boat might not handle their form of "protection" if this turns into an everyday thing, Arceus forbid.
no subject
[and of course he gets a grim thought, then] ...they look all bloated like drowning victims. They must've come from the sea. You don't suppose Davy Jones sent 'em?
no subject
An army of undead drowning victims. Definitely sounds like something Jones would unleash on us for no apparent reason. Guess now I'm going to have to barricade my cabin and sleep with a knife in my hands every night. Now that the babies are on patrol duty.
no subject
[he double-checks his weapons, hefting one in each hand - River Master on the right, Dark Thresher on the left]
I'm gonna make a sweep o' the ship to make sure we got 'em all. And get everybody in their cabins. Nobody should be out right now, get where it's safe.
no subject
[But she does give him that worried look she usually reserves for her captain when she feels that something bad's about to happen.]
Do you need me to come with you? Considering the circumstances, my room isn't really safe right now.
no subject
[Gan Ning is a proud advocate of the buddy system!]
no subject
[Considering her choices at the moment. Last she checked, all the little boys were bunking in one room, and the two adult males were in another. Meaning her choices were pretty limited. Sure she'd be safe bunking with the little boys. But she needs her sleep.]
Actually? Maybe I will stick to barricading my cabin.

no subject
[And in the tune of Ning's usual "if orochi can't kill me..." spiel.]
I survived an attack by an interdimensional legendary dragon pokemon, and the near destruction of my world. Zombies shouldn't be too hard.
no subject
[and he won't even be a jerk if she has to drag a mattress in with him and Gaius. For now, though, he's got a ship to patrol to clear these bastards out]
no subject
Well, you be safe okay? I need sleep. Badly.
no subject
[he flicks both weapons up and spins them around his wrists as a show of just how much he's got this, and then he's off to be a hero.]
no subject
Good night, Captain. If I end up in your room when you come back. Don't wake me.
