Entry tags:
a wild bunker weekend; open
Who: Levi Jořdán, Takemichi Hanagaki, and anyone who volunteers to help!
Where: Outside the forest and near the creepy camo bunker deep in the woods
What: Levi and Takemichi have asked for volunteers to help them stake out the bunker. In prompt one, it's time to pair the volunteers up and assign them shifts. In prompt two, they share what happened Sunday night.
Warnings: N/A
The two prompts will be in the comments for people to reply to. Mingle as you'd like in them.
Anyone who wants to play their stakeout with other volunteers can just start their own thread outside the two prompts.
If anyone wants their character to have been out in the woods Sunday night when shit goes down, go for it. Assume there are several groups out there in different places and have fun threading it out to your heart's content.
It's all good.

"Whoever's on watch the afternoon and evening on the 22nd will hear some noises. There's a lot of plunking sounds and crashing coming from the bunker, and maybe some yelling and cursing. But then eventually, out the door will come a figure in a wheelchair which just absolutely floors it with a whirring of its electric wheelchair, and cackles as he speeds off deeper into the forest. They may notice he has a couple of bags strapped to the back, which in its haste will lead to some papers flying out of the bag and onto the ground.
The papers have some things that are scratched out, trees on fire and gift boxes that explode, among other strange things. At the top of the papers are this:

Attempts to follow him into the forest will result in confusion and disorientation, with the character ending up back at the bunker. But in the wee hours of the morning on the 23rd, there's the sound of something being powered down... and then that's when the mingle log will begin!"
meet up;
My name's Takemichi Hanagaki. I'm pretty new here, so thanks for showing up at all. We could use your help. Levi's been suspicious of this bunker since the moment he saw it, and I think he's right. We don't wanna miss it if something serious is happening in there.
I figured we could group up and take shifts watching the place. Then we could report right away if anything comes outta there.
What do you guys think? How do you wanna team up?
no subject
Did you bring food and water, Takemitchy? For starters.
no subject
I brought enough for today, at least! We'll divide it up before we head out.
[It's the first thing he offered to get Levi, some snack food to tide him over. Not even Takemichi could forget to bring such basic supplies now, knowing that everyone here is volunteering their time with no reward.]
And I'll have more for everybody who shows up tomorrow too.
no subject
but look at him. the manji, however it looks like right now, would never falter behind a man like takemitchy. he's never given up on anyone, after all, and can mikey even ask for something more when it comes to his people? one for all, all for one, after all. so, he smiles, both because it's tough, uncomfortable, irritating-- but he can't help but to be proud, after all. he shines really well, doesn't he?)
Good job. You didn't forget my sweets, right?
no subject
[He blinks cluelessly down at his roommate, stumped. Mikey didn't mention anything like that before they left... did he? Had he been so nervous that he just didn't hear?]
Was I supposed to grab some?
no subject
How will I survive that long without sugar... I've lost motivation...
no subject
[What deity cursed him to be the straight man for a bunch of eccentric delinquents?]
I can do a run for them as soon as my shift ends, okay? Something like taiyaki, right? With super sweet filling!
no subject
Why do you hate me... Fine... I'll patiently wait...
no subject
Th-Thanks...
[For not walking off in a huff right then and there.]
There's a candy bar in with the supplies. You can have it to boost your motivation while you wait.

Looking younger than his 18 years but still wearing what seem to be army coveralls and a rifle slung a over his back, Levi stands at attention behind and to the side of Takemichi as he speaks. He raises a hand when his name mentioned, so people know that's him. But he remains silent unless addressed. Or people are ready to head out.]
no subject
Groups of two, maybe? Do we wanna make sure that we cover all sides? Just in case?
no subject
Groups of at least two. I'll be there as much as I can.
no subject
[Takemichi easily defers to the guy with actual military experience.]
I don't wanna keep anybody out there too long without sleep, so while I'd like to watch from all sides, we might have to pick just two.
no subject
I've done a stake out before, so I've got this.
[Yosuke that wasn't exactly-- oh well.]
Just direct me where I need to go.
no subject
no subject
[He hops down from his stump, all ears.]
Really? Before you got here?
no subject
[he thinks he's pretty damn cool if they're that interested in this.]
We didn't find them that day, but it was still a stakeout.
no subject
Woah. Guess you're perfect for this then.
[Should he be questioning why a teenager is staking out a murderer instead of the police? Probably! But his brain doesn't work that way anymore. He's been a part of gang life too long to be salvaged.]
You did find the murderer eventually... right?
no subject
[he grins a little bit, and gives Michi a thumbs up.]
Sure did! It was a while after the stakeout, but it still led to clues. So that counts, right?
no subject
[Michi smiles and matches the thumbs up. He's still nervous about this whole thing, but this guy's shining confidence is very appreciated.]
Hopefully there won't be any murderers to catch this time around.
no subject
[he shrugs.]
You got weapons and all that?
no subject
[He nods toward Levi's rifle, the one he always seems to have on hand. Very visible, very easy to grab.]
But Mikey and I... [Are stupid ass fist fighters.] Well, we have a bat.
aftermath;
So- uh... Things got crazy real fast! Levi said... [He hesitates, gaze darting uncertainly toward the crowd-shy soldier for reassurance before returning to his audience.] some maniacally laughing dude in a wheelchair came out and scattered these everywhere when he took off into the forest.
[Takemichi presents the papers to any and all who want to see them. They're absolute nonsense to him, but he hopes someone can make sense of them. Vast portions of the contents have been scratched out, but visible are depictions of trees on fire and exploding gift boxes. At the top of every paper is written:
M̵̧̛̭̠̮͎̑̒̿̓̾͆͒̊͛͊̈́ͭ̕͞͡A͖̻̮̖͕ͬͅͅ_͎͓̳̮̈̀̓ͭK̨̡̡͇̙̥̲̻̙̩̫̭̳͉͙̹̼̼͚͍̖̊ͫ̒̅̈ͬͨ̐ͯ̃͟͜͢Į̛̛̣͈͍̗̮͎͛ͫ̾ͮ̌̑̉̚̕Ņ̶̸̵̵̸̶̡̧̛̮̖̬͈̫͇̤͖͍̭̘͙͇ͭ́ͭ͐̓ͤ̇͊͋̊̓ͭ͆̍͋ͩͨ̇̈͒͢͢͝G̷̨̱̰͖̮̩͉̜̰̝̉͒̓̃̿ J̛̜͕ͬ̆ͧ̉͐̂̓͗́ͮ̃ͅÖ́_̷̴̸̵̵̴̛͔̺̰̟̜̭̻̼̦͙̏ͯ͌̌͗ͩ͒́̀̔ͨ̌͘ͅ_̧͑̄Ĺ̵̢̺̦̱͖̠̯̻̞͉̺̻͉̞̦̾̑ͦ̈̒ͬ͌ͤ͐̎́̓̾̋͜͝͠͞͝L̹̦͉͉̒͑ͫ̃͒Y̴̨͔̭̦͢͝͠M̸̶̴̧̨̠̗͍̻̲̙͕̠̱̮͌͒̋́̅̽̑̒ͮ͗A̧̦͍̦͕̳̲͖̲̫ͧ̅̒̓ͨ̋̆̒̐̑̀̔ͩ̕͟͞S̰ͮͥ̀̿̌
Takemichi makes quite the face as he stares the strange letters down.]
This isn't normal... right?
Entering the bunker
cw: ptsd, drug use/addiction/needles, probably body horror, and possibly more! (will note in subjects)
Moments after it had opened, Levi stood before the bunker door, gripping his hooked blade much stronger than he needed to. There had been four bunkers in Prehevil, the one here made five. They couldn't be connected, but he can't stop his mind from drawing comparisons. What was in this one? Murder clowns with needled whips? Horrible creatures sewn together from multiple people and/or animals? Strangely advanced for the time computer equipment? Or just the odd Doppelgänger or two? Maybe he'd get lucky and it'd be just some boring old military equipment and quarters.
There was no way he'd be that lucky. But at least he wasn't going in alone...right?
He takes a deep breath before looking over to whoever had gathered to help explore. "I'll take point. We don't know how dangerous it is, so make sure to be careful."
levi at stakeout
After sending a quick message, Levi took off after the strange figure. But he was nowhere near as fast as the motorized wheelchair. He thought he'd kept an eye on where the man went, but suddenly all the trees looked the same and he just couldn't figure out where anything was. In the end all he ends up with is a sheet of paper and a lost look as he comes upon the bunker again.
"Wha...how...why am I here?"
wildcard
((Levi will be watching the bunker pretty much the whole time between leading the others to it and it opens. Feel free to bug him at any other time. He'll be on edge and dealing with withdrawals but he'll try to be nice))
