Thanks, Sadie [Mingle]
Date: 24th of February
Characters: OPEN!
After the earthquake on the 19th of January, the ground had been quiet. Or that was at least what everyone assumed; those who went to the meeting and listened to Walter speak might know that that was not exactly the case. Starting on the 9th of February, the earth had started to be shaken by the tiniest of tremors again, too small to be noticed by the everyday citizen, but not too small to escape seismic readers. Not that the public was told about this; why cause a panic? Things were strange enough these days in Mossgate Council.
Then, around 5am on the 24th, there is the most gentle shaking of the earth, only just strong enough to shake the leaves of some room plants, but noticeable. No damage is caused this time. At least not by the earthquake.
Because shortly after, a wave rolls towards the coastline of Mossgate. And not just any wave. It's a small tsunami wave, measuring about 1 metre at the top when it hits the shore and pressing up into the mouth of the river to reach a maximum height of 1.3m before it ebbs away.
The damage this time is substantial. Cars have been flushed into others, storefronts are shattered, the ground floors or many houses flooded and gardens torn apart. Some of the boats from the harbour sit somewhere inside the town now, and a ferry has crashed into the harbour office. By virtue of the very early hour and massive luck, there are barely any casualties - no more than one would expect from a major storm or flooding.
But Mossgate and Tarwich are in shock, and the descending media certainly don't help.
And every single Numbered in the echo boundary has received a plot echo, granted about a few minutes before the wave hit the shore.

How did your ears change?
no subject
They're a little different to normal ears. now. A little furrier. Sort of like a cat
no subject
You have cat eyes AND cat ears now??? That’s brilliant! Can I see them sometime? They must look so pretty!
no subject
Sure, next time I see you and there are no non-Numbered about then I can show you.
no subject
Yes please! Promise I'll help make sure it's secret.

[At the side, Nel begins to draw a cute caricature of Sadie with triangular cat ears and some decorative flames. A couple minutes is all it takes for the picture to take full form.]

Oh Nel that's so cute!! Fire is kind of cool, but I don't have that good control yet so that makes it dangerous until I get better
