ROUND ONE

[personal profile] scrapthis 2014-02-12 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
The mirror leads to a creepy alleyway. Every window is shattered, every door is nailed shut with boards to the outside. The buildings loom over the forgotten alley, making the sun impossible to see. The trash littered on the ground doesn't make the place feel any less grungy and dirty.

There's two different alleyways you could slip into, Left and Straight ahead. The left passageway seems really narrow, and probably only has room for everyone to fit one at a time. Though, just by looking, you can tell that everyone can fit.

The straight ahead passage is much more spacious, but are those noises you hear? Moaning, and crying? If you take a few steps forward, you'll easily be able to tell that the sounds get louder as you go forward. Is someone actually down there, or is it a ruse? There's only one real way to find out.

[After LEAPING THROUGH THE MIRROR and falling flat on her face in the alley, Hydra's scrambling to her feet.]

Yarrow? Yarrow!

[But he's not here. He's not anywhere. So with a resigned tightening of her jaw, Hydra looks around.]

....two paths, huh?

Yarrow?

Yarrow!

pawper: (so weird to not see it in a pie)

[personal profile] pawper 2014-02-12 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
[There's dirt on her face already from falling, what a winner.]

I don't think he's here.

[Instead of Yarrow, Ivy will see Hydra trying to sweep up the bits of trash...only for the pieces to be scattered again by some super fucking rude magic or something.]
awwwkward: (Ohhhhhhkay)

[personal profile] awwwkward 2014-02-12 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
Then we have to find him.

[personal profile] pawper 2014-02-12 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
[A nod, eyes narrowing with a heretofore-unseen sort of purpose, and she gestures to the two paths.]

Which way, though?
awwwkward: (Did we get a new painting?)

[personal profile] awwwkward 2014-02-12 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
We should stick together. So no splitting up. ...I don't know which way, though.

[personal profile] pawper 2014-02-12 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
[hhhh]

Normally I'd agree, but....we might need to split up in order to find him.

[Stepping forward to investigate the two paths a little.]
secretbooty: (it's not for you)

Re: DISCUSSION let's try this again

[personal profile] secretbooty 2014-02-12 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
Hydra, what are you doing? It's not going to work.
awwwkward: (I don't know what I'm doing)

[personal profile] awwwkward 2014-02-12 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
No splitting up! We decided that a while ago. If we have to backtrack then we can, but there's no point in half of us finding him and the other half still being lost.
pawper: (it's 110° but these fries taste great)

[personal profile] pawper 2014-02-12 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
But what if we can't backtrack this time? What if—

[She's cut off by the moaning and crying noises filtering in from the center path.]

Re: DISCUSSION let's try this again

[personal profile] pawper 2014-02-12 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
I wanted to try.

[She gives it one more spirited go....]

I don't care if it's trash. It's still part of Yarrow, so it's precious, and should be put in order.
awwwkward: (And if I do get stuck)

[personal profile] awwwkward 2014-02-12 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
[tugging on her arm]

Let's go that way. What if it's him?

[Hesitates for all of three seconds. Part of her still wants to talk about splitting up, but it's really hard to think rationally when confronted with those awful noises.

So she just swallows hard and nods.]

ROUND TWO

Well, it sure is easier to get through here, but the moaning and crying is slowly getting louder and louder. You'll also begin to hear strange whispers in your ears, making you think that they might be right beside you.

None of these voices particularly sound like Yarrow's and honestly, it's a bit emotionally grading. You can choose to continue on and bear it or turn around and head down the left path.

[Stubbornly still walking forward.]

Yarrow could be further ahead. I'm not giving up.
