Run, run, follow me [Open Mingle]

Date: Saturday, 4.1.2020
Characters: OPEN


I.

It's midday when trouble seems to brew underfoot. Literally underfoot, in cases - wherever the Numbered are, they'll suddenly find dormice approaching them, running around their feet, in some cases up their legs, aiming to get their attention, and then running off - coming back again, running off once more in the same direction.

Trying to get the Numbered to FOLLOW.


II.

If Numbered decide to follow the mice, they'll be lead through the streets, fields, or whatever there is (in some cases, this might mean that the mice are trying to lead them through the military area aroudn the air base). Perhaps they'll run into other Numbered on the way - all mice seem to be leading those that they lead into the exact same direction.


III.

The direction of, it turns out, the tunnels under the cliffs. The mice will easily slip through the grates that bar the entries - the grates were made to keep humans out and let a tiny mice through easily. The Numbered, however... well, the grates were installed solid and sturdy to keep humans out. The mice will vanish in the tunnels and not come back.
runs: (fuck this and this and that too)

...Are you sure it's not just pretending and waiting for us to get to it so it can eat us?

Why would it want to eat us? I thought mice liked to eat cheese.

I bet they would eat everything as long as they can catch it.

They're just too tiny to eat most things normally.

Oh.

Maybe we should go get lots and lots of different kinds of food so it can have something it likes to eat when it wakes up!
runs: (seriously?)

[....]

But what if it prefers fresh humans?

I think someone would have mentioned something if there was a big mouse down here eating humans,
runs: (duh)

Well, of course nobody mentioned something after they were eaten by it, they couldn't!

"But wouldn't we have heard if people were disappearing down here?"
runs: (duh)

[personal profile] runs 2020-04-15 07:46 am (UTC)(link)
Well, nobody would know that they disappeared down here if they didn't come back. People would just know that they disappeared.
