Map of the Town

close enough.

((so, should we stop here and wait for the detectives or just keep whispering while Slick B and Jim remain oblivious until the time is right to act?))

*Equois nods to Karkat in acknowledgement, then turns to Tavros, still whispering.*

D --> Tavros, are your legs functioning at 100% capacity currently?

((i dont know how much you guys will be able to talk before i have to make slick notice you, and i honestly dont think anyone here but equius can withstand shadow majyks, i dont really want to kill you if i can help it))

((I'm okay with going back to waiting, just had to acknowledge the arrival of the others))

Tavros shrugs and tilts his head in a yeah no noddy shruggy kind of way. Which is silent. 100% silent. Yeah.

Gluttony has totally been right next to Jim the entire time, making small comments such as "Wait what?", "What are we doing now?", and "Haven't I met you before?"

((okie makes sense))

The Lady strides into town, an icy path of frozen waste trailing behind her. In the distance you can faintly see what appears to be ice statues of random citizens.

The Lady smirks and laughs. The Lady thinks that either the strange lady in black is a total fool, or she doesn't care about this town in the slightest. The Lady was certain she would figure out your true power, but either she didn't know or didn't care.

Either way, it's incredibly convenient to the Lady. She places her hands on the ground, and frozen ice spreads slowly along the ground from her hands. The ice starts to accelerate until it covers all the outside floor of the town.

The Lady frowns, not detecting the Hero, and tries to creep into various buildings, searching...

((This could take some time))

The Lady starts when the ice enters the hospital. The Lady starts emanating icy fog and glides towards the hospital, smiling wickedly

((u didnt leave the secret place))

((also how far does this ice spread, across all of the city? like all threads?))

((It's not in very many of the buildings, but the entire outside of the town itself, like the roads and sidewalks and parks and stuff, are covered in ice. Also, my b lemme post that really quick))

((sorry when i say all over the town i mean literally the entire ground is covered? like the farm? and the ground above the hideout? and places that are under yggs protection?))

((Aaaaah, I getcha. The Lady can detect life near and on her ice, so when she detects anything that looks like Black Mobsters, she keeps her ice away and goes around them, kinda like a circle in the ice. There would probably be a circle around Pip Deal as well, cuz he kinda LOOKS like a Black Mobster. There is also a circle around the Pet Shop and Nepeta))

((so there are very clear circles around them, but she can still detect them))

((also the whole *suddenly ice everwhere* is incredibly op considering what you can do with ice))

((So, what about the Sleuths?))

((I think they were outside their office and/or on the way to the slums, right?))

((they arent black mobsters and as such arent under yggs protection, unless you mean the scoundrels in which case theyd probs be avoided i assume))

((I mean they'd probably be affected or at least notice that everything's frozen))

((Sounds like something they'd investigate))

((Same with the mobsterswap guys in the town center, they'd be affected and notice it, too))

((very true but im still having a little bit of a problem with how far spreading this ice is))

((I admit, I am a bit unhappy, too, especially with how FAST it is spreading to that size))

((I'd be fine if it spreads so much but it should take a while))

((Long enough for others to notice BEFORE the whole town is covered))

((Think this. It's an arc from an anime called Fairy Tail, where they find a village completely frozen. ))

((Oh and it isn't super wide spread super fast, it's been about 30 minutes since she started, and it's not finished yet. I was slightly distracted when I wrote the original post. So, to clarify, it has not spread all the way yet. At most it's reached places like the hospital, pet shop, bank, Doc's Tavern, and MAYBE PI's Shop))

((okie so im assuming youre basing your character off of some sort of god

secondly im assuming she can control the spread of the ice so it isnt a circle cause if it hits the bank then it hits the store, the marina and the farm and MAYBE the sleuth offices and like the top left quarter of the slums if the ice spread is a circle

and before you argue against me im using your map))

((Pip Deal is at the marina right now by the way, but I guess it could still freeze up most of the lake and go trough the ships. And yes for all intents and purposes Pip Deal does look like a shadow mobster.))

((The fact that Pip Deal is at the marina was not mentioned before, no, but it is something I decided on before the whole icing thing so no metagaming here.))

((so is this ice stuff affecting Karkat, Equius, and Tavros in such a way that we need to say/do anything or should we/I just keep waiting for the action to reach us?))

((most likely, its also affecting slick in that hed see it happening))

((i want to clear up whats going on with this cause im not happy with how little we know about her powers until they just happen, havoc hasnt explained any of this before and we told her several times that we had to ok all powers before hand to stop godmodding))

((it does help to have some idea of what you're dealing with . . . guess I'll stay quiet until we know what's going on . . . ))

((i have literally no idea what is happening right now))
