Silent Hill - Day 1 - Day Post

Morning in Silent Hill, West Virginia, doesn't change from day to day. It's always gray, it's always dusty, it's always -- wait for it -- silent.

Time stands still in Silent Hill. It's the seventies forever, from the rusted cars abandoned along the Nathan Avenue main drag, to the Charleton Heston double feature on the billboard outside the Rialto, to the dust-obscured Gordon Lightfoot poster in the window of the record shop.

No one's lived here for the last thirty years, except those few abandoned pets and police dogs that were strong enough to survive on their own, to breed and run wild. No one even visits except for the occasional check-in by the county police, a couple of search and rescue missions over the decades, a photographer or two.

Nothing changes. Nothing ever will.

Except.

Except if nothing ever changes, then why, as the dim light spreads through town, are there sixteen strangers lying in the middle of the road?


[OOC: OPEN! Warning, many icons, links, and...pretty much the entire adventure will be understandably squicky. Welcome to horrorland! (Today, though, the place looks normal, just abandoned and fire-damaged. There's no ash falling yet.)]

Leia nodded. Any knotting her own stomach was doing was being firmly told to get over it and deal with the situation. "We need to find out where we are and how to get back," she said. "And if there are any more of us here. I think we'll be a lot safer if we stick together."

"I agree," he said, finally getting to his feet and wincing at, once again, being reminded that he hadn't worn shoes to bed. "I'm going to not be able to walk for weeks when we get back home."

When. He couldn't let himself think otherwise.

"Maybe we can find some sort of place where we can get a change of clothes, too," Leia said thoughtfully. If only they'd be that lucky. She'd much rather have pants on right now. And more sensible shoes.

"Maybe." Bod nodded and dusted his pants off, trying to see the humor of him being in his pajamas and her being in semi formal wear at this current point. "We look quite the pair right now."

Sighing heavily, Bod squinted again, wondering if his vision would ever clear. "Hopefully there are other people from the island."
